CHANGING ELECTION LAWS

The attorney general in his report
to the governor advises radical
change in the election laws. That is
just what is the matter with them
now. At every session of the legis-
lature some jack leg thinks that he
can make great improvement in the
law and formulates an entirely differ
ent one, and the most experienced
judges of election are entirely at sea
as to how to put them into effect,
while the voter does not know what
sort of lemon is going to be hand
ed to him in the shape ola ballot and
the chances are that if he marks it as
he did two years before he will loose
his vote. Sometimes they have chick
ems and at others they have cart
wheels, sometimes if you scratch the
chicken you can't scratch anywhere
else while at other times you can
scratch over the whole sheet and then
Won are liable to miss lot of cam
didates away off in one corner. II
the election laws were let alone for
few years the people could apply
themselves to a study of them and in
time cast their ballots with few mis-
takes. The last legislature dispens-
ed with one election clerk and added
the burden of registering a great part
of the voters, which in the larger pre-
cincts takes the whole time of one OF
the judges. This should be remedied.

THE COST OF LIVING

The government reports that food
prices have advanced on an average
of II per cent during the past year
is grand fake Real food prices,
those articles Of food which the peo-
pie mostly use have advanced more
than one hundred per cent. Take
flour, potatoes, meats, fuel, apples
and ali other articles mostly used
and you will find that 100 per cent
will come much closer to the mark
In order to reduce the percentage they
have included salt, pepper, tea, coffee,
vinegar, oranges, lemons, and articles
of that kind ali of which articles are
used in small quantities This would
lower the average but would have lit

The people are finding out when
they come to pay for their food that
they are not living on a percentage

SPEED Is NOT
THE ESSENTIAL
FOR BOWLING
Expert Declares Control
and English" Must Be
Developed to Succeed
| JUDGING THE PLAYER

That speed should be side-tracked for
control in bowling before one becomes
highly proficient is the opinion OF James
Donal, the Minneapolis expert. The main
thing to learn is CONTROL" he says. Don
worry about your speed at the start. you
can regulate that later. II Is not neces-
sary to throw n fast ball, but IL 1t comes
naturally, continue to use It. Many So
called experts condemn speed, but Jimmy
Smith does not roll a funeral ball When
you have reached the 115 and 1IO aver
age stage. you, no doubt, Will become
interested in what is known as 'stuif,' or
the English on the ball. Next to con-
troll, 1t is most essential. There never
was real good bowler who did not have
some stuff
"Perhaps you have noticed certain
bowlers hit the head pin full and get away
with It, while every time you have done
so you have drawn n split. That is be-
cause you have choked your ball with
tight grip, causing It to skid half way
down the alley, with the result that
when it reached the pins it has been
spent.
STUFF can be put on In four different
ways: BY lifting the ball with the fore
finger, by fitting 1t with the loose I'm
gers as you let go, by turning the thumb
in the hole, and by twisting the wrist.
Hook-ball bowlers generally have lot
more of this English than the straight
ball bowlers. but the control is more diff
ficult. on full hit the straight ball
usually gets the larger count, while on n
thin hit 1t Is the hook which sweeps the
most pins.
THE big average man is shooting Mt
the 1-3 pins, and although he might not
always hit this spot, he is keeping ever
lastingly at II, Control is the first es-
sential, and when n bowler is able to
make spares consistently then he can
take up a little stuff to produce slight
hook, thus turning n deadly straight ball
into a good working ball for strikes
That done. you have your finished bowler
"Do not judge bowler by his big
scores, but by his low "nes Almost any
body can get big total once in Il WHILE
but n good bowler rarely Is guilty of
very smsll score. Don't let anybody tell
you about splits being hard luck. y
good bowler ought not to get them, If
they happen there Is something wrong
with the grip or the delivery. Use your
own brains in correcting the fault"
