HOW "PIN MONEY" GOT ITS
NAME

This expression originally came
from the allowance which a husband
gave his wife to purchase pins. At
one time pins We're dreadfully expen-
sive, the Book of Wonders explains,
so that only wealthy people could af-
ford them. and they were saved so
carefully that in those days you could
not have looked along the pavement
and found a pin which you happened
to be in need of as you can and often
do today.
By curious law the manufactur-
ers of pins were only allowed to sell
them on Jan. l and 9 of each year.
and so when those days came around
the women whose husbands could af-
ford it secured pin money from them
and went out and got their pins.
Pins We're known and used as long
ago as 1347 A. d. They We're intro
duced into England in 1910. In 1924
an American named Might invented
"a machine for making pins which
enabled them to be manufactured
cheaply. About 1900 tons of iron and
brass are made into pins every year
in the United States Which reminds
us of the old. often asked but never
satisfactorily answered question:
Where do all the pins go?"

There is no sen in crime"
But say unto thee, if that be true,

Lo, woman will actually DYE the
plumage of a bird of paradise in the
fond delusion that she is "beautify-

But man will cultivate an eye
brow on his upper lip, and wear yell
low spats, in the sweet belief that he
lis identifying himself
A woman will pull out her own eye
brows, and tint the hair OF her head
to match her latest gown, in order
that she may shine conspicuously
among other women.
But a man will wear brown derby
hat which tortureth his head and
leaveth red stripes upon his forehead
in order that he may NOT be con-
spicuous among other men.
A woman will kiss another woman
affectionately upon the cheek and
straightWay go forth and gossip
about her.
But a man will lie with all his
strength and with all his ingenuity to
protect another mans reputation and
straightway go and find him that he
may chastise him with fisticuffs and
present him with blackened eye for
punishment.

A woman will waste two long days

McaDoo's RECOMMENDATION,

William G.. McAdoo, who soon will
retire as director general of railroads,
recommends that the government re-
tain control of the roads for five
years in order to learn just how gov
eminent ownership would work out
in peace conditions.
Mr.. McAdoo strenuously denies that
he believes such experiment would
lead to government ownership. While
he processes to have an omen mind on
the subject his opinion is that such
test would result in the restoration OF
the roads to private control, with the
public better satisfied.
1t appears to the Journal that i:
would be inviting calamity for such
experiment to be tried rs nm expert
ment solely. Mr.. McAdoo does not
see any advantage to the country as
certainty, except that the people
of the country who believe in govern
ment ownership probably would be
convinced they were wrong.
We believe the price the country
would pay for such change of opinion
would be far more than 1t would be
worth.
Even the railroad employees who
have declared for government ;'wner-
ship fail to reckon with the fact that
the public never will tolerse the aon-
tinued payment of any class Of public
servants beyond what the services to
society of those public servants en-
titles them TO receive.
Any such effort would soon make
line of dcnarkation between the
government employees and the con
Stunning public. and the consuming
publc would win in every state in

ENGLISH ELECTIONS TOMORROW

The British Isles are in the throes
of an election contest III which vital
domestic questions are involved.
Lloyd George. head of the radical lib-
erals, and Bonar Law conservative
unionists, unite in appeal to the cleo
tors of Great Britain. Asquith, with
what remains Of the liberal party,
OPPOSES them.
The most important domestic pur-
pose of LLOYD George and Bonar Law
aims specifically at the disestablish-
ment of the Welsh church. which is
highly important entirely because it
is recognized in England as the pre-
cursor of the dsestablishment of the
English church. Therefore. the eier-
zeal wing of the Tory party leaves
the coalition and Lord Robert Cecil
has resigned from the ministry on
that account
Another important phase of the
campaign is in Lloyd Georges advo-
caCy of the doctrine of protection by
tariff discrimination in favor of the
colonies. II will be recalled that
Lloyd George, fifteen yeare ago
fought tooth and nail against the pro-
tectiye tariff doctrine announced and
advocated by Joseph Chamberlain,
Hence the free traders also are at
cuts with the premier.
Tie Lloyd George and Bonar Law
coalition, if it succeeds at the polls
tomorrow, win form a new party in
the British Isles, embracing IN its
folds the anti-church of England ele-
ments and the Chamberlain protec-
tionists. 1t also has the SUPPORT of
all those who are advocates of pater-
nalism toward the propertyless people.
In this fight are adherents of both
Disraelis and Gladstones policies.
Disraeli had a vast scheme of inn
perialism-so far as bringing the coll
onies and the mother country in closer
relation-and at the same time he
was advocate of liberal reforms which
touched upon socialism closely for
those days.
Gladstone split the liberals by his
advocacy of Irish home rule, and
Birmingham sent to parliament its
aggressive young mayor, Joseph
Chamberlain. who was as radical for
his time as Lloyd George was dozen
years ago, but who was forced into
conservative ranks in his subsequent
fight with Gladstone. He became the
father of what was called English
tariff REFORM" but in his battle
against free trade he was defeated.
With the defeat of Chamberlain.
Lloyd George rose to power as an ad-
vocate of purely domestic reforms,
and he became the most popular
british minister, When the war
rigor than was shown by his chief,
Asquith whom he ousted from the
Partnership. He will rank with the
elder Pitt as an organizer of victory.
Events of the war have made Lloyd
George a protectionist and an impe-
rialist lin the sense Of more complete
ly fedcrating the colonies with Great
Brittany and at the same time he re-
tains his liberal views regarding in
ternal affairs of the United Kingdom.
The upsl1ot of the elections will be
watched with interest by the whole
English speaking world

A BILLION FOR US. NAVY
Largest Sum Ever Appropriated
in Single Bill.
President Directed to Dispose OF
Anti-U Boat Fund of $100,000.0o0
as He Sees Fit.

Washington. America sea fight
ers are to be backed next year with
40 biggest supply Of money ever
voted them. The naval appropriation
bill, finally approved by the House
Naval Affairs Committee, carries
S1,325, 100000, the largest single naval
measure ever proposed.
The surprise of the bill was q $780,
100000 lump sum given President
Wilson to dispose of as he may see
fit on an anti-submarine program.
I'VE did not wish the country's enc
mics to know our building program,
so we simply appropriated S1OO,OOO,-
900 for small craft, and left 1t to the
President to spend the sum as he saw
fit said Chairman Padgett.
The only limitation Is that 1t be
spent on torpedo boat destroyers,
submarine chasers and such other
naval small craft and for each and
every purpose connected Herewith as
the President may direct.
Direction is also given In the bill
for the completion of the next three
years building program at once, in
cludin, one battle cruiser, three bat
teships, three scout cruisers, nine
feet submarines, two fuel ships, one
transport, one destroyer tender, one
ammunition boat and one gunboat.
Construction of these had been held
up by the difficulty In getting shipyard
space. The navy therefore is author
lied to continue greatly enlarglng all
its navy yard plants.
Personnel of the navy Is ordered In
creased from 10000 to 22S,000 and the
marine corps from 10000 to 10000.
Promotions in both the marine corps
and the navy are assured by authoriz-
ing one new major generalship of ma
rlnes, three temporary brigadier gem
erals, twelve temporary colonels and
twelve temporary lieutenant colonels.
To the navy are added $50 lieutenant
commanders, who are to have, II Is un.
derstood, command Of small craft.
For naval aviation S1SS,000,00O was

TROOPS ADVANCE LINE
First Marked Move OF American
Army in France.
Positions Are Consolidated, and En-
emy's Attacks Are Weak and
Ineffective

With the American Army in France.
American troops In the Luneyille
sector have occupied and are holding
enemy trenches northeast of Badon-
yiller, which they forced the Germans
to abandon through recent raids and
concentrated artillery fire.
The trenches have been consolidated
with ours.
This, though a small forward move
ment, marks the first permanent ad-
vance by the American army In France.
The consolidation OF the trenches ena-
bles the Americans and French to op-
crate from higher ground than hereto
fore,
-Four groups of German gas projec-
tors in addition to the group of 200
projectors already reported destroyed
have been discovered and likewise
blown to pieces by the American artll-
lery. Probable German plans for a
gas attack on comparatively large
scale against the American positions
northwest of Toul thus have been up
set.
The new groups of projectors were
discovered from aerial photographs
taken by American observers In
French airplanes. The effective ac-
tion taken against them wss due to
the quick work Of the observers, the
intelligence officers and the artillerists
in turn.
The American artillery on this front
has been more active than ever in the
last 10 hours, and its shells also found
lodgment In several ammunition
dumps, which were blown up. Many
extensive explosions are reported.
The correspondent, standing on a
hill, witnessed one dump In wood
20 up in brilliant flash and great
puff of whitish smoke, tremendous
report following a few seconds later.
Explosions and fires also were
caused by our shells In villages and a
number In the woods behind the enc
my front.
During a retaliatory shelling for an
enemy bombardment in which num-
Der of gas shells fell on our battery
positions the American guns silenced
certain German batteries by pouring
In fast and extremely accurate fire.
