Signora Carolina De Fabritiis Has
Opened Studio in Augusta.

Signora Carolina De Fabritiis,
Mezzo-Soprano, and instructor and
graduate in voice culture Of the
New England Conservatory of
Music Boston, has recently opened
her studio IN Augusta Georgia. In
leaving Boston Signora De Fabritis
gave up large clientele of pupils,
but she will by no means cease her
professional work, as she plans to
continue both her concert singing
and her teaching in Augusta.
Signora De Fabritiis is the wife
of Mr.. Alexander Baron Holmes,
who for some years has been con
nected with the sales department Of
the ID. M. Co. Like most artists,
she has continued after marriage to
use her maiden name, under which
she made her reputation as a singer.
Signora De Fabritiis is very en-
thusiastic over the future of the
South in matters pertaining to the
arts, and during her recent trips to
Atlanta, Savannah and Augusta
she found educators anxious to
make the South big educational
center for the training of its young
women to go out to teach it's cul-
tural branches, for it's climate, the,
inherent love of beauty in the peo-
pie and all tradition make this the
ideal spot to study music in all its
branches.
Signora De Fabritiis will open
her season in Augusta September
29 at the Montgomery Building.
Associated closely with her will be
Mr.. Robert Irwin, one of the lead
ing piano teachers of Augusta, who
has done much to promote the
musical life of that city, and they
are planning a series of interesting
joint reeitals, embracing the mod
ern French and Italian schools, and
some of the representative Ameri=
can composers.
The Boston American and other
Boston papers had extended notices

Extracts from speech delivered by Ohio Senator in Senate of

Mr.. McCumber: "Let me ask the Senator a question and ono
question may answer the other: Does the Senator believe that

IVA INITIATED BILLS
BAIT FOR GULL|BLE
Demo-Republican Gang Sets Hooks,
Hoping Voters Will Prove
Suckers.

Men and women of North Dakota,
don't suffer yourselves to be fooled
hoodwinked by the simple and
ostensibly harmless titles of the five
l. V. a. initiated bills that will appear
on the ballot. For your edification
and benefit the following ANALYSIS of
the Ubiquitous measures hasfbeen pre-
pared:
Bill No. 1.
n law providing for regular exami-
nations Of the Bank of North Dakota
and other state institutions.
In the first instance this law is I'M
necessary, as section % of the laws
of North Dakota, the state bank ex-
anime must examine the Bank of
North Dakota at least twice a year or
oftener if he sees fit. Of course the
l. Y. \. gangsters know this, but they
use the initiated measure TO uphold
the lie that the Bank of North Dakota
cannot be examined. But the most
sinister reason is that they want to
make it possible for any dirty political
gangster to paw through the records
of the bank and finally wreck it. Mr..
Farmer, the same class of bankers
who before the primary, iguratively
speaking, grabbed you by the throat
and told you to vote the I. Y. A. ticket,
or they would take your home, are be-
Ill this law. When they, or any one
else, makes the statement that the
Bank of North Dakota can't be exam
ined-they lie. Vote no.
Bill No. 2.
A law giving counties, cities, vii
lagos, townships and school districts
the right to handle their own funds
through local banks if they so desire.
Leaves it compulsory to deposit all
moneys belonging to all state institu-
tlons and the state proper in the Bank
of North Dakota.
The fine Italian hand of the money
lenders is seen behind this law also.
Ihey want the use of county funds
without having to pay interest. Where
should the money belonging to all the
people so but to their own bank?
Vote no.
Bill No. 8.
y law ordering the Bank of North
Dakota to not make loans on and
except to actual farmers residing in
North Dakota.
This initiated law is another to
support a damnable lie of the /. V. A.
that the Bank of North Dakota was
loanlng money on land outside the
Vote no.
Cavalier County farmers press. (Langdon, N.D.) 1920-1921, 1920-10-28
Bill No, a.

A law that will permit the publica-
ton Of private legal notices in local
papers, all county legal notices and
other official publications of all kinds
to continue to be published in the
county official paper as at present.
This law if enacted would enable
crooked lawyers to pull the same old
game they did of yore, to advertise
foreclosures in little obscure papers
with practically no circulation, and
many times enabled them to steal a
mans home. Vote no.
Before the advent of the Nonparti-
san League administration the old
gang law allowed three official papers
to be appointed in each county, there
by causing the people to pay three
times as much as is now the case.
Bill No. s..
A law placing all strictly educa-
tional matters under the direct SUPER
vision of the superintendent of public
instruction, taking these powers from
the board of administration.
y crude attempt to once more place
the state at the mercy of the text
book trust by making the supcrin-
tendent OF public instruction not re-
Snonstble to anyone. The ~viciousness

1T PAYS TO TEST
RUBBER RINGS


With fruit, sugar, and vegeta-
bles at the present high levels,
the Gamer who does not test the
rubber rings she uses is taking
long chance as to whether the 20
to SO cents worth of good material
in the can will keep or not. This
year the country is flooded with
poor rubber rings, and unless the
housekeeper tests the rings she is
using the chances are good that
her canned products will not keep.
The cost of everything entering
into retailing rings has increased,
and in order to continue selling
them at the old price and to make
profit many manufacturers have
reduced the quality of the rings
they are putting out. The United
States Department of Agriculture
gives a number of tests which
may be used to determine whether
rubber ring has the require
ments that it shove or not. One is
the stretching test.
A 6-inch piece is cut out of a
ring; take hold of the end so there
are A inches between the fingers.
Stretch the piece along a ruler
until the fingers are 10 inches
apart. The sample should not
break and should return when re-
leased to it's original length. The
Newark post., 1920-09-15

tensile strength test is as follows:
Fill a lightweight pail with l
gallon and 7 pints of water (total
weight approximately II pounds)
Place the jar ring around an
empty spool; pass a wire through
the center of the spool and fasten
to handle of the pail; then pass
the round handle of a wooden
spoon or broom through the ring
and lift. The ring should not
break. If rings will stand these
two tests, they are not likely to
give trouble in canning.
