TO PROBE 10 DIVISIONS

The Town Meeting party scored another
important victory In it's battle to unearth
ballot frauds mt the recent election when

TODAY denying the writ of superscdeas asked
for by the Organization The prime object
Of this part of Republican chess play was to
stop the opening of the ballot-box imme-
diatply and thus make IL impossible to
throw the searchliCht on the truth which
will be found in the baliot-boxes
so decision was given by the higher court
on the appeal made hy, the Organization
seeking to prove that the court over which
Judges Einetter and Martin presided had
no authority to open the boxes. Argument
on the appeal will he made sometime in
Januafv.
The Town Meeting party gained another
very important point when the court de-
cided after hearing lengthy arguments. to
permit Il special investigation Of Ito divi-
sions in which Henry J. Scott asserted no
end Of fraud could be proved

Moreover, she gets busy trying to
master the details Of whatever she
has undertaken TO do because she
knows she's likely to do it for the
balance of her life, she wants to learn
how to do it we'll enough to draw
down a good pay envelope, whereas
the beauty works half heartedly and
with little interest in her Job, because
she's always expecting TO exchange It
for a permanent situation as wife.
For all these reasons we may pity
the poor pretty girl when she has to
look for work, and extend our congra-
tulations to the homely girl who finds
her best recommendation in looking
useful and serviceable.
Nor in reality is beauty half as
great an advantage to a girl in secur-
ing a husband as we think. Men are
never more in consistent than they are
in their attitude towards this matter.
To hear men talk, one would think
that they we're such beauty lovers
that no woman who was not second
Venus would have the ghost Of a
chance at catching one of them.
But If you look around among mar.
ried women Of your acquaintances you
will observe that the average Of good
looks is extremely low. Nor do you
see that the raving beauties make the
best matches. When the richest
young man in America married a
year or so ago he passed by all Of the
wondrous living pictures that are
gathered together in the worlds show
places of beauty, and selected as his
wife young woman whose sole claim
to good looks is her kind, intelligent
expression.
From this one may well argue that
while men admire beauty in the abb
stract, they have no particular desire
to possess it and are quite willing
for some other man to marry the lady
who looks like a spectacular parlor
ornament. And in this they are right
Nature is more just than we think.
When she gorgeously upholsters the
outside Of a woman, she Is apt to
skimp on the inside fixtures of brains

kind to the eyes, but who are so sweet

grow more beautiful year by year.
Men know this. and that's why the
girl who isn't a beauty marries all
around her better looking sister.
The moral Of all of which Is that
there are plenty Of crumbs Of comfort
for the ugly duckling, so she need not
mourn as one without hope.

LAUDS
PATRIOTISM HERE

ANACONDA, Mountaineering fit
and In his usual mood of good fellow
ship, State Senator Harry Gallwey,
conda & Pacific railway, and Mrs.
Gallwey returned from a trip to the
Hawaiian Islands and California
points.
Mr.. Gallwey was impressed with
the patriotic demonstrations of the
Hawaiian people, who are taking &C
tive steps toward giving material
assistance to this country, he said
The United States has spent huge
sums to make Pearl Harbor safe from
attack, and the strategic importance
Of the islands has not been overlook.
ed in the nations preparedness
measures, he observed. Mr.. Gallwey
did not hear any lingo talk about
war with Japan, and well-informed
Hawaiian people did not attach much
importance to statements crediting
Japan with hostile motives against
this country.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gallwey, who were
accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. James
F1nIen, VINO are expected 0ack tomor-
row, visited the island of Hilo, where
the Volcano Kilauea was erupting.
They visited the Volcano at a most
favorable time, as the lava was pour
ing over the edges of the crater, and
not in years, they were told, was the
sight so spectacular.
AS they had to leave before Judge
]. 3. Poindexter, who has since ar
rived in Honolulu to take up the
duties Of federal Judge, reached the
islands, Mr.. Gallwey's party acted as
advance agents and the judge was as
sured Of a welcome almost as royal
as the Montanans would have ex-
tended.
THE trip is fine; every minute was
delightful and worthy any ones time"
said Mr.. GallWey. ST

times as good a chance to get a job
as little Goldenlocks. who looks like
a fashion plate.
The same authority also says that
middle age beats youth to a job. and
that the one place where no woman
between thirty and forty.five need he
ashamed of her birthdays is in bust
ness office.
The reason of this is obvious. The
married man dare not have too good
looking and dainty little stenograph-
er because of the perpetual necessity
Of combating his wifes jealous suspi-
cions, and the married man avoids
her for the very practical reason that
he is trying to keep from leading him
self into temptation.
In addition experience has shown
every business man that a living pic
ture In the office lowers the efficiency
Of the whole place. 1t is not in mas
culine nature to forget that any pretty
woman is a woman, or to refrain from
making eyes at her, or INDUCING In
passing gallantries.
Il had to let Miss Blank CO." said
come of a certain peachy little secre-
tary he had had. Il hated to do 1t, be-
cause she was competent and as nice
a little girl as you ever saw. but she
was 80 good locking that there was
never q minute that half the men in
the office weren't Hoped over her
desk, and the other half grouchinG
away in green eyed jealousy because
they weren't After this, me for the
homely sister that no man will look
twice upon"
Another employer, who ran a shop
much patronized by men, explained
his preference for plain faced girl
clerks by saying that customers
wasted too much time trying to flirt
with pretty girl employees. When a
man buys a thing from a homely girl,
he takes his package and goes" said
this merchant, "but II he is waited
upon by a young woman who looks
like an understudy Of Lillian Russell,
he hangs around and jollies her until
he has wasted so much Of her time
that 1t eats up the margin Of profit
on the sale"
Still another reason that the plain
faced girl has a better chance Of get
ting a job than little Angle Face is be-
cause the ugly duckling knows that
she has got to make good on the job.
She's got no pink and white loneliness
to atone for bad spelling. Neither do
her eyes look so much like violets
drenched by rain when she cries that
no employer will have the heart to
scold her for adding up columns of fig
ures wrong. She will have theTyavo-
ures wrong She is on the same footing
as any man In the office and she has
to turn out as good a brand of work.

Chinese Expert Points out q
Method Recommended to

That the Chinese populaticu alonA
IN Hawaii can save 66f0 bags q rice
Q year by the simple method Of coon
ing It more thoroughly. using plenty
Of water, ID Q statement made 70 the
Territorial Food Commission today
by K. L. Wong, Of the Poo Chona
Company, lat North King street
Wong, like q great number Of hf9
countrymen, including the Chinese
consul, Is thoroughly aroused over
the urgent necessity for wartime saw
ing, and has volunteered his services
to the commission 70 help spread the
propaganda Of saving among the CHI
nese people.
Wong says that most Chinese pre-.
fer to eat what Is known a. the me.
dunn cooked" rice. This Is prepared
by using about two parts water to
one Of rice, and cooking until Il Il
only about half or twothirds done
This leaves the grains firm and well
formed, and for the people to whom
rice Is q staple food, II has o slightly
better flavor than that OF the well
cooked cereal.
By adding about 10 per cent more
water and cooking until we'll done,
Wong explains, q more tender, whittier
and more nourishing food can be had,
and it increases the bulk by one
eighth. In other words, Il has been
demonstrated that the amount Of raw
rice required to feed eight persons
when it is mediumcooked, will feed
nine persons II It Is prepared by the
method he suggests.
The estimated consumption Of rice
by the Chinese people Of the terri
tory is 257 bags q day." he asserts.
TT is understood that two-thirds Of
this amount, or III bags, Ii served
medium-cooked. II the Chinese house
wives and restaurant cooks can be
induced to change the habit, and be
content with we'll cooked rice, as
white people and orientals Of other
races are, q saving Of Is bags q day
could be effeeted-or 6570 bags In

The Honolulu merchant believes
this result can be obtained, because
the Chinese of the territory are deep
ly and periodically interested In the
wartime economy campaign, and
generally are anxious to do their
share. - 50
