Houston Announces
Peace Time Policy

Secretary Houston takes occasion
to say that the issue Of Treasury
Savings Securities has become the
permanent peace time policy of the
government and that the work Of
the savings organization will be
pushed during the coming year.
1.-TWO new Treasury Savings Sc
curities will be issued. A 81 Treas
ury Savings Stamp and $25 Treas
ury Savings Certificate. The 81
Stamp will be non-interest bearing,
ed on a green tint, and viii bear the
ed on a gree mint, and will bear the
portrait Of Alexander Hamilton, the
first SECRETARY of the Treasury.
The $25 certificates will be similar
in design and terms to the 500 and
$1,000 Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates, which will also be offered in
1921, to mature January l, 1926.
The new securities will supply 81
unit for saving and registered gov
eminent security in the $25 denomi-
nation, with can be conveniently
purchased through the accumulation
of the 81 Treasury Savings Stamps.
More important still, the new secur-
line Of government securities,
line of government savings secusities,
the 81 stamp and the $25, 500 and
81 900 registered savings certifi-
Gates, and thus place the Treasury
Savings movement on solid peace
time basis. The small denomination
wartime securities, the $25 War
Savings Stamp, in a 1921 series,
and the 25-cent Thrift Stamp, will
also be offered during the coming
year." 81

Tom Thumb 1.-THE dwarf who star
red with Bxsnum's Great Mora
SHOW, took Europe by storm Kings
and queens craved private views
addressed the little feIlo-, and ver,
highly entertained by his impudeni
replies Grand ladies', lion hunting

cess was assured when tiny Tom
consented to be entertained at DER
salons.
Those we're the pafmy days Of
freaks. A fair without q bearded
lady, q living skeleton, q dog-fsced
boy and q tvo-headed calf was as
impossible as a melodrama without
a william People spent twice as much
time in the sideshov inspecting alb
normalities as they did in the main
tent. s@&it
But the freaks no longer pay their
keep, and are headed for the bread
line. The American Association Of
Fairs and Expositions has perceived
that the people no longer care to
feast their eyes on the worst that
nature has to offer.
"The public is merely disgusted,S
says the president Of the associa-
ton. "women's clubs have made
over the rural citizen and he wants
something intellectually stimulating.
/ don't know what win become Of the
freaks. They win not be at the
fairs"
Perhaps the spread of scientific
knowledge may have something to
do with II. Perhaps II may be that
more kindly spirit animates us,
and we cannot help feeling Ofspity
when we see a deformity.
Fortunately no large number OF
grotesque abnormal persons will lose
positions because of the change in
public taste. The more alert of mod
ern showmen have long been putting
emphasis on other attractions. Many
people in their early thirties, who
make a point of seeing about every,
thing there is to see, have never
looked upon an extensive collection
of iyine monstrosities. And the
chances are they never will.

Ornate architecture is a fetict

Ornate architecture is fetch
which is costing the public millions
of dollars.
1t is probably right that the pub
lie set the pace for private business
in the erection of handsome build
ings for the housing of its officials.
But the idea of erecting buildings
for show instead of for use is all
wrong, and it is a violation of the
first principle Of all art; namely,
that form shall follow function.

WHY STATISTICIANs GO CRAZY
Troubles Imposed Upon the Experts OF
the Census Bureau by the
"Scientists."

Experts at the census bureau u
Washington often express wonder that
more of their statisticians do not go
crazy. AS an illustration of what these
unfortunates have to endure, an Off

incidents, according to the New York
Evening Post: In the census Of !o20

What,s In a Name?

At one time the people believed
that the descendants of Judas Is
CARROT were living in Corfu. although
those accused stoutly denied such an
cestry. In Brazil Ian eftigy of Judas
is carried by the school boys to a
ship where sailors hang it from the
ward arm. In the Greek church at
Smyrna once a year there is a eere-
mony at which a person is paid a
great sum to impersOnate Judas.
Such is the feeling of the people that
he who accepts this odious part IS
liable to retain the name through life.

has been handed down from father
