San Francisco
Has Gay Lent.

San Francisco from other cities. The
cessation of gayeties in the eastern and
southern cities brings with its desire
for rest and relaxation the longing for
a change of scene, and, Europe being
barred for the majority. the march of
travel is tending westward.
Which doubtless accounts for the un-
disputed fact that Lent of 1917 is gayer
than in any previous year. as far back as
even the older members of society can re-
call says the San Francisco Chronicle.
The advent of Mr.. and Mrs George de
Long, than whom the smart set seems
to have no greater favorites. OF course

SAYS EXTENSION WILL STAND

The Thirty-seventh general as
sembly will not vote to sell any OF
the capitol extension, in the opinion
of James Peters of Perry, one of the
new members of the house of repres-
entatives.
Il do not think that the general
assembly will approve any bill which
will disturb the capitol extension, -
said Mr.. Peters.
1T is not good policy to disturb
what previous legislatures have done
in matters of this kind. Capitol ex-
tension was made an issue and the
fight on that proposition has been
made. / see no reason why the whole
matter should be reopened
Il own TAO acres of land The
extension tax was not enough to
make any noticeable difference in my
taxes. Anyway all that is past 1t
would be a big mistake to sell any
of the land which the state has pur-
chased"
Mr.. Peters is interested in proposed
legislation affecting the smaller cities
of the state with regard to public i'm
provements.
During the last year many of the
smaller cities of the state have done
considerable paving" said Mr.. Peters
I'm our city of Perry, for instance
the authorities paved some of the
residence streets against the will of
80 per cent of the property owners.
Il do not believe that the authori-
ties of the smaller cities should have
unlimited power in regard to matters
of this kind. l believe that when
paving is proposed, it should not be
ordered unless at least so per cent
of the property owners approve it
in residence districts"

ROAD BILL Is TO
BE CONSIDERED SOON

The Johnston mud road party In
the legislature is now endeavoring to
bolster itself with Governor Harding IS
ernor Harding has not endorsed the
/ Johnston bill.
However, the Johnston crowd is
trying to capitalize Governor Hard
ing's popularity throughout the state
by sending out word that the John
ston bill is an administration" bill
Speaker Pitt sent out an interview
the other day announcing that 1.-THE
tax payers are not going to permit
members of the legislature to ignore
the decision at the polls last Novem-
Der. They are going to insist that
the administration bill which is the
Johnston bill be enacted into law"
AS a matter of fact the Johnston
bill never has been an administra-
ton bill. The Johnston bill repeats
the present law which permits super
visors to issue emergency bonds in
county work and does not give the
people in the county any right in
the matter whatsoever. 1t saws
specifically that nobody, SUPERVISOR
tax payers or anybody else, shall be
permitted to anticipate any road
revenue, beyond SO per cent of the
ensuing years income.
Governor Harding in a letter writ
ten less than year ago, declares
that he believes in permitting 1.-The
people of the locality or community
to build the kind of road they can
afford. The kind they have material
to build with
The most convincing statement in
Governor Harding's letter is this:
LET the people of given locality
vote on the proposition of taxes or
bonds, and, if they can afford either
or both they will build the roads,
If the Johnston bill in fact an
administration bill, why would it
endeavor to deny to the tax payers
the very privilege which Governor

CASE PROVED NO sENATION

A case in the Audubon County
| District court Monday had all the ap-
| pearance of sensational trial, ac-
cording to papers filed in the matter,
came to an end Monday evening and
| there was little or no cause for the
charges that were filed.
At the beginning of the February
term of the district court Mrs Bonnie
Race brought suit for divorce from
her husband Chef Race and the
divorce was granted but the decree
had not been signed by the Judge.
Frank Turner, an attorney from
Avoca filed papers in the case last
week, an account of which appeared
in last weeks Republican. which
claimed that Race and his wife
were conspiring to defraud the court
in order that Race might go un-
punished for statutory charge upon
which he is held in the Federal
court at Council Bluffs. The attor-
ney was an uncle of Miss Helen
Turner, the girl whom Race mar
ried at Marysville, Mo. last Friday.
A number of witnesses were ex-
amined Monday including the mother
of Mrs. Race number two and from
the evidence produced the judge later
decided that the divorce he had
granted early in the term should
stand. Mr.. Rezee was facing some
serious charges if he had been con-
victed, but with the decision just
rendered makes the matter alto
gether different.
Mantz G. White appeared for Mrs.
Race who was given the decree of
divorce while Frank Turner of
Avoca looked after the interest of
the parents of the girl from Harlan.
Chef Race is the young man who
worked on the new school building
in Audubon all last summer. Last
fall he was arrested for violating the
Mann act, but since then has mar
red the girl and no posecution is
likely to follow

This Old Question First to BE Tackled
i'm Home Makers Convention,

What shall l cook" is an old
question to the housewife, but il will
be the first problem tackled in the
very first lecture of the home makers
convention to be conducted at The
Rose Valley Community Short Course
from March to March 10 by the
home economies extension lecturers
from the Iowa State college. Differ
ent classes of food, their value to the
body, and the food needs OF people in
various lines of work will be taken
up.
Charts have been prepared and will
be shown, illustrating the different
kinds of food each class. The best
methods in cooking Will be illustrated
and demonstrated to the women who
attend the lecture. The lesson on
food and cooking has been put first on
the program because the speakers of
Ames believes that it is the most fun
damental problem to be considered
and is Introductory to the entire
series of nine lessons to be given.
The women who miss this will be
handicapped thru out the course.

AMERICANS MAY HAVE
TO ECONOMIZE ALSO

1t is becoming a serious question
in the judgement of some observers
of the grain market, as to whether
the curtailment of consumption re-
sulting from the high prices may be-
come an important factor in the
market before long In most Euro
pean countries there seems to be a
widespread reduction in the consump-
ton of wheat, either enforced by
scarcity or voluntary, under the ap-
peals of government authorities to the
people to economic. In England the
food controller has asked the people
to limit their consumption of -four
sto three pounds per week per capita,
which is about two-thirds of normal
and if carried out would make re-
duction of about 1,750,000 bushels in
requirements. In France and in Italy
there is a continuous effort to keep
down consumption to the minimum.
In this country high prices have
forced economy in the purchase of
food products among the poorest paid
working people. and great many
other persons probably have been
prompted to eat less by the wide
spread agitation against high prices
and the prominence given to reports
of reduced diet in Europe.
1t is probably true that American
per capita consumption of wheat does
not vary much from year to year, but
the extraordinary conditions now pre-
vailing might easily result in reduc-
ton of a good many million bushels.
In considering this phase of the
sitnaf inn IL hp a m harn6 N
all food products are high and wheat
afterall, is probably the cheapest food
available in the essential elements for
sustaining life. Nevertheless. the in
dications are that enforced and vol
untary economizing will cut the
worlds consumption of wheat this
year materially below the quantity
required in normal years.

Richardson, acting for Mr.. Nutshell,

To many the settlement Of the con-

much interest, but this fact does not
help out the districts who have issued
warrants covering their indebt edness
and which are drawing interest at the.
rate Of s per cent. The governors

bound to suffer. If their indebtedness

SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARkENs !! GRAY HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Restore Color, Gloss
and Attractiveness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and. lustre
to the hair when faded, streaked or
gray. Years ago the only way to get this
mixture was to make it at home. which
is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, BY
asking at any drug store for s.Wyeth;s
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get a large bottle of this famous old
recipe, improved by the addition of other
ingredients, for about SO cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it SO naturally and
evenly. You dampen q sponge OF soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at =
time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application
or two, your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive.
: Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite for those
who desire dark hair and youthful an.
pearance. II is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.
