PRAISES ROTARY
FOR GIVING MEN
A BROADER VIEW

Rotary banishes provincialism.
That was one of the outstanding
impressions that f. E. Fisher, dis
trict governor, brought back from
the recent international meeting at
Atlantic City. He mentioned the
fact in the course of an address at
the noon meeting of the Rock Is
land organization today-the first
he has attended since returning
from the east.
Thirteen nations were represent
ed at the International convention.
Delegates from them all intermin-
gled on a plane Of wholesome fell
lowship. each getting the viewpoint
of the others and establishing CON-
mon grounds for future intercourse.
Wi hin the United States the
speaker expressed the hope that
Rotary will be one of the infiu-
ences which eventually will unite
classes, parties and factions on a
common sense ground and induce
a more rational attitude toward ma
tlOnal questions.
Commentator was expressed for
the movement to systematic the
adjustment Of relations between
employer and employee, especially
for the Kansas plan. Just as a
civil and a moral code have been
built up Mr.. Fisher said he hopes
an industrial code will be developed
in which the 81 per cent Of the pop
ulatio1 not directly involved will
have a voice. as well as the is per
cent, which heretofore has claimed
the right to fight it out at what
ever cost.
Joe Tuckis and Fred Setterdahl
also spoke briefly OF the Atlantic
City meeting and Sam Burgess told
of the trip to Kewanee last week

Nh, Alioe s TYier.

A woman now holds the pre8t-
dency Of the American Library as
ISOLATION, the third to be honored
in this way in the more than forty
years Of the associations history.
Miss Alice S. Tyler, director Of the
Western Reserve University LIZ
brary school, at Cleveland, Ohio,
was elected to the chief ONCE Of
an organization comprising more
than four thousand librarians Of
the United States and Canada, at
the recent conference Of the asso-
citation in Colorado Springs. The
selection of a woman. occurring at
the most important and critical
stage in the history Of library work
in America, is to be interpreted as
a recognition of the predominant
service of women in the Librarian
ship of America, library leaders
say.
The foremost task undertaken by
Miss Tyler will be the successful
accomplishment o fthe Books for
Everybody" movement Of the Amer
lean Library association. Follow
ing the conclusion Of its war work
of providing library service for the
fighting forces, the A. L. 0. set
itself to meet the library needs OF
America. The enormous field for
library extension is revealed by q
government survey which shows
more than sixty million persons
without access to free public IL
braries. The success Of the Books
for Everybody" movement depends
upon obtaining the fund Of $4,000
900 now being sought throughout
the country. While progress has
been made, the efforts of Librarians
and friends of librarians must be
redoubled If the appeal is to be en-
tirely successful, officials Of the as
sociation declare.
Other woman presidents Of the
A. l.. A. have been Mrs. Theresa
West Elmendorf of the Buffalo
Public Library and Miss Mary
Wright Plummer of the New York
City Public Library School, who
died in September, 1916.

Household Hints
TRY THESE.

TRY THESE.
A large coarse cloth dipped n
salt and water viii clean and
brighten mating.
When your hands are shrunken
and soft from using soda and hot
water, rub them with salt and they
will become smooth.
A discarded rainccat will fur
nish material for making an excel
lent bag for the swimming toys.
Fly screens are not merely a
means to save annoyance; they
form quarantine against dy-borne
disease.
In frying tomatoes for breakfast
stir in a we'll beaten egg or two
while cooking. It adds to the
tastiness and substantially OF tho
dish.
Walnuts and olives chopped make
a very fine filling for rye bread
sandwiches when mixed with q lit
tie sour cream.
Y To cleanse sinks and draiss
pour copperas dissolved in boil
ing water through them.
{, When the top of your silver ink
stand is all covered with ink and
you want to clean it, mix a little
! chloride of lime into paste with
water, rub the silver top smartly,
and it will be brighter than ever.
CAN WITH FIRELESS COOKER.
Do you know that you can use
the freless cooker for canning? 1t
has at least one great advantage
over the, open fire method-it keeps
the kitchen a much cooler place to
work in, because so much less heat
is used. Naturally this also means
some saving in fuel and makes can
ming a more economical process.
The usual directions for canning
are observed. The jars must De
! we'll sterilized, also rubbers and
caps. Sterilize by filling with cold
water, placing on rack, surround
ing with water and bringing to the
boiling point gradually, then boil
for Is minutes. Remove from the
water and empty, but don't wipe
with cloth.
Fill the jar with vegetables
cover with cold water and one tea
spoonful of salt to each jar. Place
the jars into the fireless. fill with
water to the neck of the jars and
place on stove. Bring to boil slow
ly, then transfer to cooker. bu1
don't heat the radiators. Simply
place the hot containers with jar:
inside the cooker.
Leave inside cooker for thret
hours, then remove and seal.
Different vegetables require diff
ferent periods Of cooking. For ex
ample, beets should be left in thu
cooker for three and one-hal
hours. Young, tender asparagus
beans. peas, etc, that are freshl,
picked, need not remain in thu
cooker for more than two and one
half hours.
Fruit need comparatively LITTLE
cooking. If soft berries are to b.
canned boil on the stove for /!
minutes, then leave in the fiereles
, cooker for As minutes. The harde
fruits need longer treatment.

Woman Shef.H Installed.

The first woman sheriff Of the
southwest was installed when Mrs.
William Gates took the oath OF Of
fee as sheriff of Stephens county,
at Duncan, Okla.
There will be no bootleggihg or
moonshining in these parts" Mrs.
Gates announced as the chief plank
of her platform, and to prove she
meant what she said, she seized
three stills within week after she
assumed Office.
Mrs. Gates succeeded her hus-
band, who, while on his deathbed,
summoned the three commission
ers of Stephens county and asked
them to elect his wife to the office.
They promised that they would do
SO, and that is why Mrs. Gates be-
came the first woman sheriff of the
southwest.
Mrs. Gates, despite the fact that
she has accepted the Responsible
ties of the sheriff's Office in the
county near the oil fields where
there is an inclination to disre-
gard laws, is feminine and domes-
, tic. She had never before appeared
in public life, and her time and
energy have been devoted to her
home
The inside work of the office has
been assumed by the woman sher-
| if who dictates it's policies, while
the outside tasks of riding, serving
| papers, and hanging prisoners is
delegated to three male deputies.
