CHILDREN GIVE PRESENT

Singing Happy Birthday to
YOU" many of the children who
spent the Chautauqua days camp
ing in Glen Miller park, came on
the stage, last Saturday evening,
surprising Mr.. McCombe, who was
speaking to the audience at that
time.
They brought him large wicker
standard full of beautifully colored
gladioli as a present to him on his
birthday which he celebrated last
week.
This charming little celebration
witnessed the affection held for
Mr.. McCombe, the platform mana

NEW ROOMS ADDED
AT JOSEPH MOORE

Ever since Joseph Moore school
iirst saw the light of earth It has
had less grades than any other
public grade school in the CITY.
This summer, however, two new
rooms were added ON the first
floor-one for the kindergarteners
and one for the fifth grade.
Because of these extra rooms.
the school was big enough for the
usual number of grades, SO sixth
grade boys and girls of that dis
trict are going to Joseph Moore to
school instead of to Baxter. as
formerly. The sixth grade room is
on the second floor.
Another nice room in the base
ment, so Joseph Moore boys and
girls think, is the exercise room,
where are swings and rings and
other nice things to play with on
rainy days.

Mr.. w. B. Miller, who has charge
of the electrical work in the Junior
High school, is planning to rig up a
listening booth in the annex, SO
that the boys taking electrical
courses will have a chance to re-
ceive messages. Probably no mes
sages will be sent, as the condi-

sending wireless messages would
be too complicated to adapt to

CRIPPLED GIRL REFUSES
ANY HELP WHEN MAKING
PRiZE-WlNNING POSTER

{True story Of a Real Girl)
Although Madeline Lennon, 10
years old, 1919 South 23rd street,
Omaha, Nebraska, has been a Grip
pie ever since she was year old,
she managed to win a prize in the
recent Humane Society Poster con-
test in her city. Nobody helped
her.
She designed, cut, and pasted
the poster all by herself. notwith-
standing the fact that her left
arm was made entirely useless by
infantile paralysis. She would not
let her mother, or brothers and
sisters help her. When 1t came to
pasting on the cuttings she man
aged by pressing them against her
chest.
She is very proud of the eertifi.
cate of membership in the Humane
Society which she received, to-
gether with $500 cash. She has in
vested her money in war savings

souri, would lose two.
OF course. this group OF states In
1911 insisted that the membership
Of the House be increased so as to
protect each one from loss or MEM

increase the membership and fix the
basis or ratio so the membership
would be increased.
HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.
History will repeat itself without
much doubt. Arguments that the
House Is already too large will not
avail. Those States that find they
will lose a member or more than
where 1t Is will stand out In favor
of enlarging the membership SO "a
to protect themselves.

action as a matter of form. But II

the Senators from that State would

The necessity for action In the

will meet the coming winter and
then not meet again for another two
years. II the next House. that Is

HOUSE FACES
SIZE REVISION
Congress Must Make New Basis
For Reapportionment and
Fight Looms.

The short session of Congress,
which meets the FIRST Monday In De-
cember, will have on its hands in
addition to other tasks the business
OF establishing a new basis for the
apportionment Of members OF the
House OF Representatives.
PLAN REAPPORTIONMENT.
Though It Is frequently said that
the short session will do little but
pass the appropriation bills, IL VIII
provide for the reapportionment OF
the House membership and fix the
size OF the House under the new
census figures. Under the prece-
dents since 1880, the outgoing Con-
gress enacts the legislation neces-
sary. Prior to 1880. such legislation
was enacted by the new Congress.
that is, by the Congress elected In
November OF the census year. But
dealt with IL.
The question which Congress will
probably settle in the short session.
therefore, is whether the size OF the
House as II stands now will be IN
creased or whether the basis or ratio
will be SO Increased as to keep the
otal number OF members where II IL.
The House membership Is now 435.
The present number is looked on
In many quarters as too large ana
too unwieldy. Many public men be-
iieve 1t should be reduced. But the
House can hardly be expected to
vote to cut down Its own member
ship. 1t might possibly so enlarge
the ratio or basis of representation
as to keep the present total the
same as II Is now or approximately
so.
INCREASE Is PROBABLE.
But the most probable action Is
the increase Of the House member
ship to something like 500. This
would make the House still more
unwieldy than 1t Is today. On the
other hand, 1t will be following the
path of least resistance to increase
it.
II the House membership is held
down to what 1t Is now. number OF
States will lose members. The
States which would lose would. OF
course, fight the proposed legisla-
tion.
|, Moreover, the new census shows a
6rift of population from the agricul-
thraI districts to the towns and
cities. II the basis of representation
Is enlarged so as to hold down to its
present figure the total membership
Of the House, the agricultural sec
tions of the country will have their
representation lowered from what 1t
is today. This fact will have ten
dency to help along any movement to
enlarge the membership. 1t Is not
likely that a full 500 will be reached,
but IL is likely that the total Will
| be in the region OF 475.

years and see what happened then.
