LOWER CALIFORNIA SALE.
Mexican Government Does Not Appear to
to Be Eager.

Mexico City, Feb, 27.-Goyenment
comment is not forthcoming on the pro-
posaIs in the American Congress and the
California legislature that President
Wilson be instructed to open negotia-
tious with the Mexican government for
the purchase of Lower California and a
part of Sonora. 1t was intimated, how
ever, that comment would not be proper
with the project only in its initial stages
and with the backing thus far shown
Press comment is entirely against the
sale by Mexico of its territory, and pro
ally papers declare that Mexico pins its
faith on President Wilson's pronounce
ment for small nations. No attempt is
made to refute the charge that the gov
eminent of Lower California is almost
independent Of the Mexico City govern
ment.

Brass or copper articles will remain

Always salt French fried potatoes aft

Molasses an Energy Giving Food.
We are told that one-ffth of the en-,
ergy requirements of the average person
in this country is met by eating sugar.
We not only like the taste of sugar on
certain foods but our bodies use sugar
Just as the engine makes use of coal and
without its supply could do no work.
OF all the substitutes we were called
upon to use during our recent conserya-
tion campaign, nothing has more ably
supplied the needs of the body and at
the same time satisfied the craving for
sweets than have molasses and syrup.
Molasses contains a large amount of
real sugar and therefore replaces sugar
in almost any cooking or baking recipe.
The quality and uniformity of the
product is designated by the nationally
known name on the can. The continued
need of conserving makes it most de-
sirable for every housewife to eliminate
speculation in the matter of the food she
buys.
Satisfactory cakes, buildings and pud-
ding sauces, trostings and candies, are
made from either molasses or syrup
product; let alone its addition to the
popular baked beans" which is never
just right without its cup Of moIasses
says the director of food economics for
Armour & Co. In certain sections Of the
South molasses on hot breads and bis
cults. as we'll as with griddle cakes and
waffles, IS just az popular as the maple
sugar is with the New Englanders.
Warm clothing and warm rooms alone
are not sufficient to keep the body warm
in winter Foods high in heat-giving
properties are also necessary.

Believes Bill Will Solve Problems.

1T is a physical impossibility for
the various committees to consider
appropriation bills during short
session. and get them out of the way
by March 4th, and it is my earnest be-
lief that the measure which ! have
prepared will solve this difficulty by
permitting the incoming Congress to
consider and pass the appropriation
bills for the fiscal year commencing
July 1. following the beginning of the
life of the Congress This will tend
greatly to reduce the amount OF I'M
portant legislation considered at the
short session. in which there are al
ways more or less lame ducks who
take little or no interest in congress
sional proceedings
THE public business has grown to
such proportions that Congress ought
to be in session practically all the
time, with the possible exception of a
couple of months during the hot
weather period Of the summer. The
arrangements contemplated in my bill
will permit just this thing. and the
work of the Congress can begin i'm
mediately after the Congress comes
into being, and it will be well under
way before the hot-weather period.
There is nothing in my measure
which in any way conflicts with the
constitutional provision that Congress
shall meet at least once a year and
that such meeting should be on the
first Monday in December.
Congress is the most important
agency of the government, and it's
members have a right to know in ad-
vance when they are going to be call
ed into t -, session instead Of f. c9oling pdI,
dent, whoever he may be, to make up
mis- mind when he wants them.

shall introduce will create sufficient

Nearly 700 Would March.

II is estimated that the three or
ganizations combined contain between
500 and 700 Washington soldiers. A
joint parade of the three outfits, it
was pointed out today. would give
Washington an opportunity to see it's
most representative fighting men in
a strictly military march, as New
York, Philadelphia and other large
cities have honored their returning
heroes.
One suggestion made today was
that the Y. NJ. c. A. knights of Co

might be able to get together and
help arrange a reception for the ma
chine gun battalion and signal com
pany.
Wives of men in the 10th pointed
out today that practically all of the

the families of the men in that regi-
ment and would fall far short of
enough to cover the expenses of a

Proposal is to be made that by law

session on March 5, 1921, and biennially
thereafter Representative Clifton NJ.
Macarthur of Oregon has prepared a
bill which he is to introduce just as
soon as Congress meets. Mr.. Macarthur

law. not by man"
Mr. Macarthur said today that he has
pledges from many members of Con-
gress that they will actively support
his bill.
Describes the Advantages.
In describing the advantages of sAch
legislation, Mr.. Macarthur said
Under the present arrangement
new Congress comes into being on
March 4. following its election, but
does not actually begin work until
the first Monday in December, or thir-
teen months after the expression of
the people at the polls. l contend
that this intervening time is alto
gether too long, and that members
chosen to make the nations laws and
to attend to it's public business should
begin their work as soon as possible
after election day. and, furthermore
that they should meet in regular ses-
sion by authority of law and not by
call of the President l believe In
government by law. not by men.
Under the present arrangement
unless the President sees fit to cal a
special session, nine months of time
is actually wasted, and when the

bers have to rush the consideration
of important legislation during the

Asleep then, as thy self didst say,
Yet thou can'st lift the lids that

His prisoned eyes from ours away.
He smiled-"He doth not Sleep"
We know, that he shall wake,
And look upon some fairer dawn,
Restore him to our hearts that ache,
He smiled-"He is not gone"
Alas too well, we know our loss
Nor hope again our boy to touch,
Until the stream of death we cross

The while we yearn to feel thee

Death of John Isaac Bradham

At 4:3O on Friday afternoon July
II, 1919, the death angel visited the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. j. Bradham
of Greelyville, and bore away the
spirit of their idoltxed son, John
Isaac, to its eternal home beyond the
skies.
The young man suffered intensely
for nearly four weeks with typhoid
fever followed by an abcess in the
head which failed to respone to medi-
cal treatment or careful nursing,
and resulted in his being torn from
the family circle. He was very pa
tient and uncomplaining and we are
made to feel by his words that his
suffering was all here on earth.
He was born October II, 1899, be
ing loaned to his family for nearly
twenty years. He was member OF
st. Paul F. w. B. church and Sunday
School and also the Mulberry Christ
ian Endeavor society in which ne
will be sorely missed. His friends
were all those who knew him land he
was beloved by all for his quiet, win
ming ways.
Funeral services and enterment
took place at Mt. Hope cemetery at
