NEWS LETTER
By QUo Harper

GNh IOLCe tHdl IS SlCaSSA 'At"1' human resistance Is driving both House and Senate to super-hum- an efforts and every kind of a record established by former General Assemblies, 50 far as worl, is concerned, have been smashed. While the number ot bills introduced in the Assembly has nothing indicative of real ability on tie part of either branch, yet it does show that some work has been done. There were 500 bills and fully fO0 resolutions, memorials and other measures which were also considered. It is an easy matter to introduce a bill, but rather difficult one to put through, yet in the first three weeks there twenty five acts approved by the Governor and there were twice as many more awaiting executive approval.
 The 1919 General Assembly is in every way a capable body, and this, with determination to &C., com )lish som ething,must bring results that are benlfiuial to the people.
 He Senate, less incumbered with lengthy roll call,i is able t. attend to bushes with twice the rapidity of the House. The members are less inclined tt making speeches, some of tht most important measures going to a vote without even an eX D antion. The members knov that the others have advised themselves of the provisions 0 all i. pending matters, and tha long winded speeches will no change one vote, consequent. they save the oratory for closin! day. There is an occasional out burst, but it usually is in defens of some trivsl matter whicl should have been s.ttled in th cloak room.
 The Hcuso is keeping up Witl the Senate by working longe hours in the day, and this weel will commence the night & sions. All this is necessary an( cognizing the fact, thoee less inclined to work on the floor and more in the committees. arc not even chasing the workers as battle aXars. "
 IL is no reflection on precidil { officers of former Ger era Assemblies 10 speak in the mosl complimentary manner of the two now ruling over House and Sen. ate. Former Assemblies have had remarkably able presiding officers, but 1t is sel iom in hist ory that both branches are SC well cared for as at present. Both presiding officers were chosen with opposition and dayt prior to the opening of the S, ss i0l. This removed the bitternes of factional lighting, and the presiding officers are for lhc whole instead of for the part.

The best savings bank in all the world is your own
homel The best way to accumulate wealth, to get
ahead In the world and become independent, is to
build a nome for yourself and then regularly and
methodically pay your money into it.
In building a lone you are supplied with a reason
for saving-a tangible objective which makes it easy
to save and serves as a check to unreasonable spend
ing. Putting your money into a home promotes a sem
sible and systematic method of living and keeps
always before you the real evidence that each dollar
laid away is not only a dollar saved. but a dollar in
vested in something from which you will realize a
lifetime of good.
You, who are renters. could build yourselves a home
and pay for it with exactly the same money each
month that now goes into your rental. Then, in a
few years, instead of having nothing, you would
have a home, paying dividends to yourself and all
of yours, not only in actual cash from rental saved,
but dividends of happiness and contentment.
In building your own home you not only provide
yourself with a sensible method of saving, but you
are doing your duty toward your wife and little
ones. A home is the natural birthright of your
children. 1t means not only present comfort and

German shopkeepers are amazed al
the strange wants of the American
souvenir hunters. For instance, they
lcannot understand why husky dough-
boys want women's paper corsets,
Substitutes for shoes manufactured
with wooden soles and cloth or paper
Iuppers, paper tablecloths, paper bed
sheets, and the hundred and one sub
stitutes which the shops have on sale.
One doughboy upset the routine of
one of the big stores by trying to buy
a suit of women's paper underwear.
With a half-dozen words of German
and a wealth of appropriate gestures
he vainly tried to put over the idea.
The whole staff of the store was
gathered to watch his antics when a
German-speaking soldier entered and
came to his aid. The amazement of
the crowd was undisguised, but he got
the underwear.
