of this measure, and just how far
Congress is apt 10 so in allowing the
President to carry out his conception
Of the office which he fills.
Debate has been quite spicy at times
IN the Senate over the naturalization
education bill. There have been op-
portunities for some startling state
ments with regard to- the work Of the
educational bureau OF the Interior De-
partment. and some of these oppor-
tunitles have been accepted with glee,
apparently. by the membership. There
is no question but what out of it all
will come a greatly enthused and bet
ter educated citizenship from those
who come here from abroad to make
their homes. But whether the end
will be achieved in the manner sug-
gested is hard to tell.
Tolerance Is still a virtue TO be
commended for wide use among public
men. Not only in their associations
with other men. but in their dealings
with the world at large. Nobody wants
to give Germans a chance to ply their
reprehensible trade in this country.
but on the other hand We should be
careful not TO Judge too quickly about
the loyalty of some OF those whose
ideas are not always coincident with
our own. Some disastrous and last
ing effects have been achieved
through disregard of this. National
unity can best be brought about by
discreet and far-seeing tolerance.
Members Of the Senate Investigating
Committees have been very much OBJ
sessed with the nation, from their re-
ports from home, that the people OF
the nation like to know what is going
on her at Washington. The epistolary
evidence of the satisfaction of the peo-
pie appears to accumulate at the SEN
ate and House office buildings, so
many members say. The spirit eXem-
plified in the letters is the same spirit
the President once said should be
catered to by those in executive posi-
tions-moreover he indicated that any
Congress which failed to recognize
this would not be doing its full duty
toward the people.

And now for the cold items which

All that is necessary to serve

the tea and put the dishes on the
table. There are no pots and pans
to wash afterward, the service es-
pecially asks that you do not wash

cleaning; all you have to do is to
empty and replace, then leave
them to be called for BY the man

made drastic changes necessary IN
our housekeeping. The house
wife, struggling under the handi-
cap Of war prices and the scarcity
Of domestic labor, found the main
tenance Of an individual kitchen
almost impossible, unless she was
a woman Of wealth.
The centralized kitchen offersa
solution to those who rebel at

to whom the individual kitchen il
no longer possible.
The organizers of this move

devoutly hoped that overcrowded
and undervictualed Washington
may come next on the list.

When the project was started
in New York, the initial station
was equipped to serve $50 patrons
daily. This quota was filed and
doubled before the service open
ed its doors, and during the first

ice they had registered over 500
regular patrons. Field secretar-
les are in training to assist IN
