MEREDITH IS UNBANIPERED.

The churches are still passing reso-
lutions, opposing Harding for COVER
nor. As already stated in these col
umns, we would not want the fight
on US, that Harding is having made
on him, for all the offices this side of
the pearly gates. The game Is not
worth the candle. Now, whether he
is as innocent of wrong motives in
the liquor fight, as the Angel Gabriel,
a lot Of people are believing Harding
was not just on the square.
He may even be elected, but from
the time he goes in till he goes out,
he will have a bitter fight made on
him. Something is wrong somewhere,
or he would not have the opposition
of all the preachers in Iowa.
And it is not question Of whether
he drinks a glass of liquor now and
then, but question of how he lines
up on the liquor issue. And to say
that he did not know how his COM
mitteemen stood on the question, 10
also begging the question. If Bill
Harding is so silly as to appoint men
to all-important committees without
knowing their views, then he is not
smart enough to be governor.
Ed Meredith has always fought the
saloons and he is consistent on that
ISSUE He is a big constructive Iowa
man, and the preachers are practical
ly all for him. Somehow or other,
you may try to rub it out If you want
to, but the fact remains, Meredith has
the swing and Harding has not. Hard
ing may be elected but it will be at
the greatest cost Of any governor Iowa
has had. %
e. somehow, he has got into the posi-
ton Of Taft in 1912, in = position

FOR PERMANENT BRIDGES.
Another necessity that all
will recognize are bridges and

Another necessity tnat Ill
will recognize are bridges and
culverts, and practically every
farmer and tax payer Of the
state Of Iowa will without ex-
ception agree that these bridges
and culverts should be perma-
nent structures. preferably con-
crete, that we may to . very
large extent cut out repairs. 1t
Is into this item Of repairs
and maintenance Of temporary
bridges that we put large por-
ton of our tax money. This is
our big leak and we should stop
it. It is not necessary to urge
upon Iowa tax payers that We
build permanent bridges so I
am going to make one plank
'.that all bridges and culverts.

of permanent construction.

tically no repairs.-E. T. Mere

Bubbles,

Bubbles are round because the air
which forms the inside Of the bubble
pushes with equal strength against all
parts of the thin film, of water that
surrounds it. 1t presses equally
against the sides Of the bubble at all

into the Enclosure, the bubble will be
enlarged the same amount all over,
and still continue perfectly round.

Qnick Transformations.


An "all weather" top makes your
car as warm and comfy" as a limou-
sine, and the few dollars expenditure
necessary to effect the change is GER
tainly worth while. Imagine what
pleasure and convenience yoh are 60
ing to gain by Transforming your
touring into an all around twelve
months a year car, as comfortable as
any specially built winter car.
In the event you do not desire to
install a winter top, the cold draughty
car can be made comfortable by the
installation OF special curtains Of the
quick adjustable kind.
Now do your serious thinking. Take
into consideration the fact that your
car is lying idle, thereby deriving
possibly quite as much, II not more,
harm than if In constant use, due to
the fact that half the valves are bound
to be open and subject to rust; your
tires are dry rotting from lack OF
use, and then think what you are
bound to miss-the downright COM
fort and convenience 1t is to step
from the door of your home into your
own cozy car, and drive with dis
patch to your destination.

it is real folly to put your car in
storage and submit to the discomforts
and inconvenience Of street cars for

When you pay SIS for your fine Derby
hat do not imagine you have paid the
price OF the hat. The real price is
paid by the unfortunate victims Of
"hatters' Shakes" who contract mer-
curial poisoning while engaged in
preparing the fur and making it into
your hat, says Popular Science.
There are many trades which are
dirty and hazardous, but 1t would be
difficult to find one as Objectionable
as the matters fur trade. From the
moment the fur receives a scrubbing
with a solution Of nitrate Of mercury
until the hat is finally completed,
mercurialism is a constant menace to
the workers.
Conditions Differ.
Conditions found in various factories
differ greatly. In some, every effort
is made to protect the workers and in
others the welfare Of the operatives
Is neglected. The Department Of
Health OF New York City recognized
that thousands of workers in u in
dustries are subjected to conditions
which endanger their health. AS a
means of protecting the workers and
raising the standard of the public
health, the department opened an oc-
cupational clinic and concentrated its
energies first Of all on the fur and hat
ters' fur trades.
In the preparation Of the hatters'
fur used for the manufacture Of felt
hats, rabbit, coney, nutria, muskrat
and hare skins are put through a num-
Der Of processes. The skins are re-
ceived in the factories just as they
have been stripped from the animals
by the trappers. They are stiff and
full Of natural animal grease and dirt.
The skins are first cut open by I'M
skilled laborers. They are then
combed and brushed by hand. The

metal trays. Girls sort out the hltr
Of the various parts Of the animals
body and place it in groups. The
skins, when they are denuded Of hair,
are used to MAKE glue.
1t is impossible to describe the
noise of the cutting machines. Unless
a person has leather lungs he cannot
make himself heard in the cutting
rooms, even il he shouts close to your
ear. The girls who sort the fur are
for the most part young. The work
ers suffer from defects Of hearing
brought on by the unearthly CHATTER.
Some of the workers who were found
to be perfectly devoid Of hearing told
the doctor at the clinic that If they
remained at home for two days they
generally regained some Of their abil-
ity to hear. II Dante could have Wis
tied a cutting room he might have
described another torment in his in
ferno. In looking over a, roomful of
young girls whose deft fingers never
falter in sorting out the fur one is
astonished that they can retain their
ccmposure in that ~unspeakable bed
lam. And one wonders, after all, If
any felt is worth years Of deafness.
Other Dangers.
But. deafness is not the only dan
ger, for every one who handles the
fur after it has been carroted faces
the menace of mercurial poison. Three
hundred and fifty employees Of the
hatters' fur trade were examined
through the %occumtional clinic. OF
these fourteen per cent were indis-
putably suffering from mercurialism.
Many have violent tremors OF the
hands, face and tongue. Unfortunate
ly, most Of the workers fail to real
lie the danger Of their occupation,
and it is exceedingly difficult to get
them to observe the first principles Of
self protection against the hazards OF
the trade. In some instances 1t was
found that the employer had to lock
the %carroting rooms and the drying
rooms at noon time to prevent the
employees from eating their lunches
there.
