idho, OIgdH, OtIlHS llStIuHieHls.
Her method of many years. study
and practical experience in every
phase of both vocal and instrumental
music, has proved to be the correct,
thorough and comprehensive system.
There are no doubt, several ways of
teaching, but there is only one true
way for both branches of music, and
the necessary requirements are natural
gifts for one or both. The brain
must comprehend, the fingers demon
strate and memory exercised.
The voice being a truly natural gift,
must possess the volume, quality and
strength for expansion. Great care
must be used in training, as either
extreme may ruin the chords and
muscles forever. A fortune is within
the reach of those to whom nature
has given the high or low expansion,
with the true resonant beauty and
quality. A delightful pleasure to the
listener, or vice versa. When all COM
binations are correct such a voice may
justly be named Musical Elocution."
Special training for young children
in combination on any instrument by
divided time. Talent in all cases must
be well tested before an opinion can be
given. Obedience all thro is abso-
lutely required. What is the secret
of advancement in both vocal and in
strumental music? Think and be pre-
pared ahead means business on both
sides.

How to Kill Moths, and Other Useful
Household Hints.


Here is an excellent way to kill
moths in carpets which never fails:
Wiring q coarse crash towel out of
water and spread it smoothly on the
carpet, iron it dry with a good hot iron,
repeating the operation on all parts of
the carpet infested with moths. There
is no need to press hard, and neither
the pile nor the color of the carpet will
be injured, and the moths will be de-
stroyed by the heat and steam.
Irons wiped on a cloth dampened
with kerosene will not scorch clothes.
Kerosene used to moisten' stove pol
ish makes stoves look like new.
Salt and water removes the lime
in new curtains and makes l., shing
easier.
Washing fabrics that are inclined to
fade should be soaked and rinsed in
very soft water to set the color before
washing in suds.
To clean a burned pan dip a hard
crust of bread in kitchen salt and rub
the burned portion. then wash in hot
soda and water.

War Will L Won
When America Sends
Over Big Fleet Of
Aeroplanes
By ORVILLE WRIGHT. Inventor OF the
Flying Machine


TT is my opinion hat a large aero
i plane fleet is the way to stop
the war. If it were possible for
the United States to deliver tomor-
row several thousand flying ma-
chimes in France the war would be
won by the allies in a few weeks.
The way to stop the war is simply to
drive the Germans from the skies,
and this can be done only by a pre-
ponderance of fighting machines.
By fighting machines | mean little
aeroplanes carrying one man and a
rapid fire machine gun.
WHEN THE GERMANS HAVE
BEEN DRIVEN OUT OF THE AIR
THE ALLIES WILL BE SUPREME
AND the WAR WILL END.
| have never considered bomb
dropping as the most important
function of the aeroplane, and |
have no reason to change this opin-
ion now that we have entered the
war. The situation shows that as a
result of the flying machines aotivi-
ties every opposing general knows
precisely the strength of his enemy
and precisely what he is going to do.
Thus surprise attacks, which for
thousands of years have determined
the event of war, are no longer pos
sible. When the United States
sends enough aeroplanes abroad to
bring down every German aeroplane
that attempts to ascertain the dis
position of the armies of the allies
literally sweeps from the heavens
every German flying machine-the
war will be won, because it will
mean that THE EYES OF THE
GERMAN GUNNEES HAVE
BEEN PUT OUT.

"A is no doubt the startling de-
velopments in Russia modi-
fed the military situation this year
temporarily to our disadvantage,
BUT PERMANENTLY FOR THE

Russia has regained her strength
with a bound and become mightier
and more formidable than ever. AL
though their distractions had the eff
feet of postponing complete victory,
they made victory more sur than
ever, more complete than ever, and,
what is more important, they made
surer than ever the quality of vic

AMERICA HAS ALWAYS BEEN

How to Make a Watch Dial Luminou

How to Make a Watch Dial Luminous.
The first thing to do is to procure an
ounce of calcium %sulphide, luminous.
The cost since the war Is 81 or more
an ounce, but you can fix fifty watches
with that amount. This element alb
serbs light and after being exposed to
any bright light for five minutes will
glow with a purple light for about
four hours, says the Popular Science
Monthly.
Remove the crystal from the watch
to be treated and with a pen dipped in
shellac go over the numerals and the
hands. Some may prefer to make dots
only at the numerals. Pour out the
calcium on a.cleau piece of paper, dip
your finger in it and press some on the
moist shellac. Allow about five min
utes for it to dry. The calcium not
used may be returned to the bottle.

~ article the edges may be crushed. y
y The effect can be discerned by a y
~ critical examination with a lens. Y
y When Il diamond Is quite clean "
y and dry carry out the following "
- GA ltillutlll L ldSc vi the SulidSC -
y Il tiny drop of water. Now take "

y Another very good test may be "

y appearance. A real diamond y
y will show up in the water with y
y startling c%learness, and it can y
y never be COMPOUNDED with the "
y water. On the other hand, the y
y imitation looks indefinite, and it "
y is sometimes difficult to see it y
y clearly at all. "
y Generally speaking, the facets Y
y in a real diamond are not cut so "
y This is on account of the fact y
y that diamonds are sold by "
y weight; hence the cutter tries to "
- preserve rs much of the original "

y sacrifices in the matter of regu- "
y larity. In the case of a paste "

y such need arises. and the cutter "

Celtic Tenacity In Amer
lea More Formidable
Than Teutonic
Tyranny
By FRANCIS CRIERSON. Famous
Author
ask me what will crush the

L Teuton juggernaut? | an
swer the combination of Prot
estant and Catholic forces in this
country. Prussia fears the. Celtic
political will in America more than
she fears the English of England.
The fighting instinct in the Celt can
never be suppressed. No people
know this better than the Prussians.
Home rule in Ireland will prove the
biggest nail in the coffin of German
materialism.
If there is one thing more grip
ping, more formidable, than Teuton-
ic tyranny it is Celtic ~tenacity, and
in this country there are many mil
lions of Scotch, Irish and Welsh and
their descendants who will never
consent to the sway of German i'm
perialism.
Materialism must be opposed by
the thing it is fighting, and that
thing is idealism, without which the
whole world is but an empty egg
shell. The new idealism means de-
mocracy for all the nations.
AND LET ME- SAY THAT THE
WAR WILL ONLY BE WON WHEN
AMERICANS BEGIN TO HATE THE

We notice that the Olympus
hotel has again this year put in
a very attractive display of win
dow and porch boxes, hanging
baskets, etc., also the National
Bank of Tacoma has filled its win
dow boxes with beautiful plants.
Do you not think that it would
be good idea to give these peo-
pie a little credit and praise for
their enterprise, in order that
others may be induced to follow
their worthy example?
1t is noticeable that when once
a business house or hotel adopts
the custom of having summer
blooming flowers for decoration
they do not abandon the practice,
but on the contrary are apt to en-
large upon the plan and make. 1t
more elaborate, as the Olympus
hotel has done this year-its dis

attractive that 1t has ever had.
If this custom were universal

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 2,
Representatives. of hundreds OF
thousands of farmers from five
states are here today to tell con-
gress and the president they ap-
prove of the administrations food
program and the appointment OF
Herbert Hoover as food adminis-
traitor.
At an all-day session with the
house agriculture committee to-
day the farmers told why they ia
vor government food control. The
farmers representatives urged the
government to take over all terms
inal storage facilities, all eleva-
tors and all warehouses and thus
destroy food and cotton specula-
ton.
The committee was told of the
actual cost of raising wheat. They
were told that the farmers have
not received high prices for their
wheat and that many times they
have raised wheat at loss.
The farmers expressed the hope
that If the government takes
charge of the food situation it will
guarantee to them a certain price
just as manufacturer of NUM-
tons are allowed to set prices.
Later the farmers called on
Secretary Houston, President Will
son and Herbert Hoover, urging
agricultural cooperation as q
house policy and suggesting es-
