"GATLING GUN" PARKER

Surprise and concern were felt
when it was learned that a United
States army machine gun had failed
to work during the raid made by Willis
tas on Columbus, N. M. Promptly the
war department set about preventing
repetition of that breakdown by
sending to the border the army's ma
chinegun expert, Maj. John Henry
Parker of the Twenty-fourth infantry,
yariously known in the service as Cat
ling Gun Parker" or, more intimately,
John Henry" Major Parker has a
noteworthy record, because he is the
man who demonstrated the possiblli-
ties of the machine gun.
This happened IS years ago, dur
ing Skaters campaign, which cul-
minated in the fall of Santiago de
Cuba. The man in the street may not
be aware of it, but Lieutenant Parker
for such he was then-has been
credited with turning the tide of bat

is also quite handsome. Nevertheless
he is not satisfied with his physical

that he looks like too many people. He

If You Want White Glover.

Most of the clovers are biennials or
perennials, but not so white clover.
It is annual and propagates itself only
by seed. Therefore if one wishes
white clover in the lawn he must not
cut it so short that no ripe heads will
be formed to provide seed for the fol-
lowing year. Some people are always
sowing white clover in their lawns
and wondering why they have to re-
peat the process every year.

Send taxpayers to the Legislature

Somebody has discovered that con
siderable percentage of the lawmakers
in the Washington Legislature in the
past few few years were not TAXPAYERS,
a, least in the ordinary sense Of the
word, and finds in this fact explanation
for the extraordinary high rate of taxa
ton in the state Of Washington. Taking
it for granted that there is a modicum
Of truth in the statement, the question
deserves comment.
The state legislature is primarily, but
not solely responsible for high taxes.
County commissioners divide with the
legislature the honor of fixing our
taxes. The way taxes have mounted
upward in the past few years gives
cause for serious thought now that the
election Of members OF the 1917 legis-
laiure is coming on. Ii is only reason
able 10 presume that the man who is
affected by the tax rate will give more
thoughtful consideration TO measures
affecting the rate than one not at all
OF only slightly affected.

No VindiCtNeneSS in ROOSevelt'S Makeup

Last Tuesday, in statement to
nevspapsrmen about the death Of Lord
Kitchener, which he deeply regretted
because Of the great work he did for
civilization in Africa, comparing 1t 10
the good work done for the cause Of
humanity and civilization in the Philip
pine Islands by the Americans. Roose-
Welt paid ex-President Taft and other
Americans the following well-deserved
praise:
Kitchener and Wineate did in the
Sudan exactly what Admiral Dewey,
Governors General Taft. Luke Wright
Smith, Forbes and their associates, and
Generals Leonard Wood, Bell, Funston,
Barry and others ike them did for the
Philippines. In each case the gain
was Unreasonable for the natives them
selves and was also large from the
standpoint of humanity as = whole. "
It is Just such things as this that
makes people like Roosevelt. He has
grea, ability, a high sense Of justice, a
great soul, and scorns TO do less than
Justice 10 personal or political antag-
onist. He mentioned Admiral Dewey
first very properly, because what Dewey
did as soldier made possible what
Nh. TAFT later did as a civilian ior the
people OF the Philippine Islands. 1t
was q neat and well merited tribute to
his recent political antagonist.

Destruction of Earl Kitchener

Scarcely anything that has occurred
since the great war began so shattered
the British nerve as the death Of Lord
Kitchener-or as he was best known,
Kitchener of Khartoum. More than
any other man, England had confidence
in him. Ii was him that said when
the war broke out that il would last not
less than three years. and might last
much longer, in which judgment he
was criticised. Time has proved the
soundness Of his judgment. He was
minister Of war and to him and Lloyd
George the country owes whatever OF
success the English have shown them
selves worthy OF. So far these two are
about the only men at the head Of
affairs in England who have shown any
spirit OF ability.
Kitchener, with his aides, was on his
way to Russia, and the ship, third
class war vessel, was either torpedoed
or hit By a mine on the north coast Of
Scotland, in the vicinity of the Orkney
Islands. That not a soul Of the SIX
hundred and odd Oh the vessel should
have been saved is most remarkable
and needs explanation. The war will,
Of course, 90 on. Who his successor
will be has not been announced.

TALK ON THRIFT IN THE HOME

Thrift is soOd management, and
nowhere is good management more
manifest than in the home. You can
soon tell what manner Of hossekeeper
the wife is. for the impress Of her ideals
and ideas is on every hand. she can
waste all the husband earns, or she can
save the major part.
Housekeeping is the most compH-
Gated work in the world, and she who
can keep house well is a good bust
ness woman. She can make her work
drudgery or she can make it pleasure.
Men fail in business and the world
knows it; but how many home failures
there are Of which the world never
hearsl
lis easy to detect the woman who
fails as a housekeeper. II you see the
dishes unwashed, the children unkemrt.
clothes strung all over the house, the
bath Uttered, the corners dirty and a
general air OF neglect, you may depend
upon it she has failed as a business
housekeeper. She does not know how.
Writing in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal, one woman tells how she succeeds
as a home maker and as a business
woman in the home. She aims at
simplicity. She has simple furnishings.
but good. She has no 'parlor"-that
abomination of olden time, but living
room where they really live. Nest
parlors are merely to look at, not TO
use. She has simple meals-things
they are all stuck on" as her little
boy puts it, but lots of them. Baked
beans only, but lots Of them and good.
And who couldn't make a meal on the
beans mother used to bake?
She has no curtains at the windows:
windows are for light and air, not to
display curtains and catch the dust and
keep out the sunlight. She wastes
no food. She allows the children TO
take only as much as they can eat and
no more. II they leave any food on
the plate. the next meal begins with
that cold plate. Her garbage is ior
waste, not food. Swell swill, costs
money and pigs is pigs" and relish
potato peeHngs as much as ice cream.
She doesn't make her attic junk
shop. She makes it storeroom, and
cleans it once year, but that is not all.
She has order in the kitchen. She
saves time by having things in order
She doesn't dry her dishes, but scalds
them and lets them dry themselves
and they can do it better than she.
She uses Letter press" to mon"
seeks. towels and coarse articles that
other women break their backs over to
no useful purpose.
A freless cooker saves gas and time
and food. She keeps biscuit -four
mixed with the proper proportion Of
salt and baking powder, and makes
biscuits for her oven in FIVE minutes.
She has all her kitchen utensils handy,
cans and receptacles labeled, and thus
she saves steps. Some women walk
too much On their jobs. She always
has change in the house, runs no ac-
counts. pays cash on delivery, weighs
her purchases and takes nothing for
granted. She keeps account Of all her
expenditures and knows where her
money goes and what it buys. She
doesn't hire much help, because she
doesn't need it. She studies her job
and succeeds because she knows how.

HARD TIME BOOKING GAMES.
High School Team Manager Has Diff
ficult Proposition.

just eight of the II High School boys
who turned out for the opening foot
bah practice Tuesday were on the job
yesterday afternoon. The team sadly
needs more candidates if it is to make
a presentable showing this fall.
Bellows Falls has lost only Monte
Vile from the strong team of last year
and that team of veterans will make
any others in the little league extend
themselves to keep in the fight.
Manager Dennison Cowles, .jr., is hav-
ing hard time booking games. Yer
mont academy, being closed for the
year, has no team and that removes
from the field one of the natural OPP
ponents of the local high school team.
Other team managers are handicapped
by the late opening Of the schools and
are forced to cancel some of the earlier
games because of that handicap. Nat
urally they are not taking on teams
new to them III preference to old OPP
ponents.
As the local schedule stands now the
first game is booked for October IA
with keene high school. 1t is possible
that Manager Cowles will succeed in
booking some preliminary game before
October IA.
