DOMESTIC SCIENCE AND LIVING COSTS.

The former attitude of toward housework
much like the former attitude of the farmers toward
agriculture The farmers said that they learned all there
in farming from their fathers and consequently did
not need any further training They laughed when the
agricultural college experts around and tried to
tell them new ways of doing things. Now the farmers
learning that by attending scientific farming schools
taking short courses reading bulletins Of experiment sta
tions attending demonstrations etc., they greatly
increase their production Many of the Corn Club boys
can beat their farmers in corn raising.
Similarly women said they learned all there was in
housework from their mothers. Frequently, however,
their mothers gave them instruction in housework
preferring give their daughters free life in society

domestic science schools and show their mothers how
losing home can be run at profit on the husbands
income.
It seems wrong that girls turned out from SO
many high schools and academies with their heads full
of French algebra and literature yet knowing nothing
about the basic tasks Of the household the efficient
performance of which their marital happiness will de-
pend Happily classes in home economics are now being
formed in many high Schools and the lower grades
to instruct girls in household tasks.
Also there is reported from the Domestic Science
schools great interest among factory and store girls
in learning housework Very frequently classes are

KERENSKY BEATEN
IN COALITION FIGHT
Russian Congress Votes
Down Cabinet Plan After
Adopting 1t
DIRECT BLOW AT PREMIER
PETRoGRAD. oct /.

PETROGRAD. oct. 1.
The All-Russan Democratic Congress to-
day voted, sl3 to isO, against a coalition
Government.
The decision is a blow directly at Premier
KerenslSy and the provisional Government.
Yesterday the same conference voted,
7G6 to 6gs. in favor Of a coalition Of all
parties in the formation OF a Cabinet which
should firmly administer the Russian de-
mocTacy
The vote today came after the conference
had formally determined TO reconsider that
decision.
The sudden change of mind by the demo-
cratic conference is inexplicable unless the
BolshevikI and anti-Kerensky forces seized
upon a moment in the proceedings when the
majority elements were absent to hurry
through a reconsideration OF Tuesdays vote
and then had sufficient strength to over
throw the previous vote sustaining Ker-
ensky.
II was pointed out that i'm the vote Of
approval Of a coalition Government the
total number Of delegates who participated
was 1854. The second vote, for rejection,
was cast by only g93. Four hundred and
sixty-one delegates we're absent.
Rejection of coalition plan in such a
fashion may or may not stand. Kerensky's
supporters have insisted that unless Ker-
ensky's idea OF union of all elements in
the Government was approved utter chaos
would follow in Russia.

The spectacular captain, the history Of

nance, took the stand himself. Calm and
self-possessed, his high-bred Prussian coun-
tenance now decorated with n heavy dark
beard, he answered the questions put to him
In perfect English, not however, devoid of
accent. The chronometers, he testified, were
taken from the ship to be overhauled and
repaired He did not know there was a duty

Where did you get the chronOmeters? ?"
asked Mr. Gray.

in the war" answered Therichens.
Were any lives lost from the ships
which you sunk?" asked Mr.. Gray.
"No one lost a life on the other boats,
but 1 lost members of my crew through
accidents and sickness"
What did you do with the passengers

Mr.. Gray.

them ashore at a safe port"
Were there any women or children
among the passengers of the sunk shps?'
Yes, but landed them all safely"
Told to explain in his own way now he
ordered the chronometers taken ashore in
this city, Captain Thierichens said:
ut is a rule Cf my navy that these chro-
nometers could not be given back to the
captains Of the ships, because they could
be used for navigation purposes. Many of
them were out of repair, and I wanted to
get them in good condition. Neither my
self nor any officers or members of my
crew were allowed to go ashore at that
time, so l had Mr.. Rohner's delivery wagon

In testifying Tor the Government, Todd
Daniel, an agent for the Department of
Justice, admitted under cross-examination
by Mr., Gray that, from an investigation, he
had learned that the chronometers really
had been taken from the ships raided in
Thierichenss exploits on the high seas. The
counsel for the defense used this admission
as the main ground for the quashing of
