SHE is A SANITARY EXPERT.

Mrs. M. J. Simmons, sanitary expert for
the McAlpin, has a very kind heart but is
somewhat feared by other employees of the
hotel. Her responsibility is great. If the
plague broke out in the big Broadway hotel
Mrs. Simmons would view it all in the line
Of duty. If the finger nails Of one of the
walters need attention Mrs. Simmons is
right there toe. She is the archenemy Of
dirt in any form in any place. Even a New
England housekeeper of the died in the
purity kind would nave to admit that the
sanitary expert Of the McAlpin is on the
scent Of germ laden dirt morning, noon and
night.

WOMAN PROGRESSIVE OUT
FOR WILSON

New York, Sept. 24.-As a pro-
gressive who reanlrms faith in
the principles enunciated by
Theodore Roosevelt in 1912, Mrs.
Antoinette Funk of Illinois, one
of the best known and most in
fluential suffragists in America,
today announced her purpose to
support President Wilson for re-
election. She was until a fort
night ago a supporter Of Hughes.
IN 1916 I prayed that the Re
publicans would nominate Theo-
dore Roosevelt for president, ="
said Mrs. Funk, in a signed state
ment to National Chairman
c. Mccormick. when he was
rejected by the Chicago conven-
ton | endorsed his action in re-
fusing to lead a third party and
and applauded when he fell in
line for Mr.. Hughes. I had no
doubt would join the Republican
party.
81 have waited for weeks since
the convention for the Republi-
can party to announce their is
sues. 1t has not been done. The
Headers of the party have been
generous in their attacks and
criticisms of the administration,
but have discreetly refrained
from telling what they would
have done under similar circum-
stances"
Mrs. Funk, whose attitude with
respect to the presidential cam
paign is typical of a large body of
Progressives and suffrage lead
lers, is a citizen of Chicago and a
lawyer of prominence. She is a
member of one of the oldest and
best known Republican families
in Illinois and has been active in
politics for years. In the cam
paign of 1912, Mrs. Funk, with
/ Medell Mccormick, Raymond
Robins and Charles E. Merrill,
constituted the Progressive
party's big four" in Illinois.

QUALITY VERSUS QUANTITY

Many housewives make vital

their foodstuffs on the basis of
quantity.
It has been proven time and
again that the cheapest is always
The most expensive, while the
highest price is not always the
Net.
Where's a happy medium in
ell thing. When you select
fools, be careful. Don't choose
anyparticular brand Of, say Bak-
ing Powder for example, just
because you can get big can for
a small price.
The risk you take in running
your entire baking and losing the
cost Of the material involved is

some with hundreds of pupils,

they must either % default on

the problem which the State
Board of Education, and others
interested in schools, are trying
to solve. The Board is earnestly
seeking a plan of relief for these
conditions. They are consider

matter will be dealt with further
at the November meeting.

INEQUALITIES IN
EDUCATIONAL FUNDS

At its regular meeting in
Boise the State Board of Educa-
ton considered a special report
of the Commissioner showing
gross inequalities in the educa-
tional funds of counties and
school districts and in their eX-
penditures for school purposes,
showing extravaganza AMI waste
in some places and poverty and
restitution in others. Over 60
per cent of the total burden is
borne by district levies; thus
the bulk of the load is carried by
the districNZthe smallest and
most uneven tax unit in our sys-
tenn.
Some of the most striking
facts are these: The amount Of
taxable property in a rural dis
trict with one teacher ranges
from a maximum of S2,329, O9t
down to a minimum Of less than
Si.OOO.OOl The average "a
mount of taxable property per
child Of school age in the count
les varies from over 100000 to
under $4,000. The annual
expenditure for a one room rural
school varies from $4,000
(Which is surely too much) to

little.)

WICK CAUGHT PLAYING BOTH
 SIDES AGAIN

Delegate Wickersham has been caught trying to play both sides of the question in the matter of the Ketchikan fish bill matter-the bill to prevent the transference of the market for Alaska fish from Alas kan ports to Prince Rupert. While at Ketchikan it is said that he told fishermen that he was against the bill. At least he told the peo- pie that had assembled to hear him speak that he did not know that he wanted to have anything to do with their bill.
 Now a night letter has been dug up that shows that he promised as late as August 9th of last month to do what he could to as- sist those seeking to secure the pas sage of the bill
 The night letter was as follows:
 Washington, D. C., Aug. g, 1916
 "Ketchikan Chamber of Con-
 merce, Retohlkan, AIasKa:
 Telegram received urging action on bill for regulation shipments of Alaska fish via Prince Rupert. Your Townsman, H. c. Strong, is now and has been since last De- cember in personal charge of that  matter and is untiring in his ef- forts to secure the passage of the bill to effect the result you want. I offered to introduce the bill and to undertake to secure its enact ment, but those ill charge thought it advisable to have another do it. I will do what can to assist them.
