HOBBY FOR SAVING

ADMINISTRATION OF ILL
NoIS EXECUTIVE.

Gov. Frank o. Lowden Of Illinois
has one hobby in the administration
of public affairs. That is strict econ
omy in the expenditure of the peoples
money. He has given Illinois a busi-
ness mans administration.
BY efficient management he was able
to reduce the tax rate In Illinois 33
per cent In two years. thus saving
S4,000000 annually to the tax pay
ers. Illinois was the only state in
the Union TO reduce Its tax rate dur
ing the war, In many states taxes
were Increased
While most public executives were
talking about It. Governor Lowden
actually planned and put into effect a
comprehensive reconstruction program
for Illinois year before the armis-
tice was signed. Governor Lowden
has demonstrated In Illinois that good
government Is profitable investment
for the people. In discussing govern.
ment the governor said:
"Our public business is the most Inn

CENTER OF INTEREST.
Frank X. GoOdsng and L: v. Patch
Given Great OvatiOns at Boise.

Boise. Idaho, Feb 14.-Politics has
experienced a marked revival during
the past few days in this vicinity and
the activities here are reflected in in
creased political interests all over the
state.
During the recent meeting of Re-
publicans here Governor Gooding was
khe center Of considerable attention
and the wonderful ovation given him
at the Lincoln Day banquet served to
indicate that his position as one of
the prominent leaders of the party had
in no wise been endangered but has
been materially strengthened by vir-
tue Of the contest he has waged against
radicalism in this state and of the
manner in which he proved his charges
in court in the recent trial of the libel
suit brought against him by Ray Nc
Kaig, the Nonpartisan leader.
Quite emphatic also was the demon
stration when Col l.. V. Patch was
presented The Colonel has only re
Gently returned from France and has
been urged to enter the political field
actively by many people. The American
Legion is strongly behind him ant
he has considerable other support.
1t is known that while he has beer
urged to become candidate for thu
u. s. senate, he prefers to be a candi
date for Governor feeling that TIT
public generally would not look will
favor upon him jumping at once from
the ranks to the highest place. More
over, the political conditions seem +
make it much easier for him as
candidate for Governor than for Sen
ator in the opinion Of the many pc
litical observers.

With a Single Thought.

1t was in the face of this most men,
acing situation that the movement
was started that has resulted in the
organization of the United Americans
which will attract all patriotic forces
into an all-embracing body with a
single thought-the teaching Of Amer
icanism.
The organization. briefly, has a ma
tional committee, made up of state
representatives, and state and local
committees. At no point In the or
ganization has any loophole been left
for partisanship, for creed, for class
ism-but the gate is wide open to all
who love their country and who
would defend its flag and constitu-
ton and perpetuate the unreasonable
benefits and privileges they guarantee
| to all.

plainly that alarming progress had
been made by the radical elements !;
that serious inroads had been made
by them, through various methods, in
to the sentiments of many citizens
who are at heart loyal to this country
but who have been misled by its worst
enemies into activities that dovetail
into their plan of destructiveness.
This well directed campaign against
Americanism, it was found, has
brought into its net many innocent
victims whose names are used by the
apostles of Redism to lend measure
of credibility to their cause and to
disarm suspicion as to the real mo-

1t is the United Americans, and one
of its fundamental missions is to cor
relate the efforts of all patriotic
bodies, operating within their partic-
ular sectarian, fraternal, military or
other lines and, in general, to
thoroughly attune the public mind to
loyalty, to bring about a permanent
dedication of the people to devotion
to the flag, to uphold the constitution
of the United States and preserve rep
resentative form of government and
the individual liberty and personal
rights vouchsafed by 1t.
The program of the United Ameri-
cans contemplates IA campaign of edu-
cation, with the truth as its corner
stone In this manner fallacy can
best be met, In the opinion of those
who gave their time to laying the
foundations of the organization. In
carrying out this policy information
will be furnished TO combat any and
all elements whose operations aim at
the undermining and ultimate destruc-
ton of this government.
Just Pro-American.
The United Americans Is not an
'anti" organisation. 1t Is h 'for' or
ganization. 1t would be folly to enter
into controversy with radical ele-
ments, which would stamp the organ
ization an anti BoIshevik, whereas its
mission is pro-American, a distinction
the founders of the association empha-
sized.
Instead of controversy there Is to
be a presentation of simple and funda-
mental facts concerning our form OF
government and the principles OF right
and justice underlying 1t.
The plan of organization contem-
plates an open door to ali classes OF
American citizens for entrance into a
seif-sustaining body unsefishly devot'
ed to the highest purposes of repre-
sentative government, an organization
that extends helpful hand to al
other bodies actsated by motives OF
loyalty, whether labor, farming. bust
ness or any other. thereby cementing
In effect, into one brotherhood al
country-loving factors, many of which
find their usefulness restricted ant
that, therefore, are not functionini
along lines of the widest possible
practical results.
The first announcement nationall.
of this organization was made recent.
By Cardinal Gibbons In an Associates
Press dispatch. Since that time tn
work of organization has proceeded

Daily Water Consumption.

The quantity of water used daily In
the United States for drinking, bath
ing, cooking and washing is surprising.
Statisticians say that the average
family contains three members. and
that each family uses 90 gallons day
10 each member OF tie household. The
consumption Of water for household
and personal use thus amounts to the
enormous total of 4O0.OOO,OOO cubic
feet daily. This quantity of water
would keep Niagara Falls going for
a period of 81 minutes. A ship afloat
displaces an amount OF water equal 10
its own weight. The Leviathan. with n
tonnage of 10000. displaces 100000
cubic feet Of water. Ii would take go
such giant steamers To displace the
quantity of water that the American
public is said 10 consume every day.

HONEYMOON SURELY AT END
6rute's Retort Proved That the Ar
rows of Cupid Must Have Lost
Their Sharpness.

Sad il is when the brief story of the
honeymoon departs. leaving only the
prospect Of the endless monOtOny OF
ordinary life ahead.
But that was where the Smiths
stood. Their honeymoon had soon
waned under the stress of modern
life. In fact, Mrs. Smith was already
adopting the policy of mastery mac
tivity; even hubby's most loving en-
dearment couldn't get a kind word out
of her
The tiff happened on Wednesday,
and lasted till Sunday morning. when
he. attired for his usual stroll asked
her:
What is for dinner today. my dear?"
His suave voice and winning smile
earned for him brief retort. The
lady replied with more force than
grace:
"Oh. ratsl"
But he was not caught unawares.
With a sweet smile he countered with
tho remark:
We'll. don't cook one for me, dar-
ling; 1 think I'll have dinner QUIT"

IDEAS ABOUT FOODS DIFFER
Oelicacies Among Some Peoples Are
Looked Upon With Distinct
Aversion by Others.

There's no accounting for the
freaks of human appetites," writes w.
j. ShOwalter to the National
Geographic society, describing some
strange foods as follows.
The Roosevelt story of how he got
the best work out of the men with
sharp-fled teeth by promising them
the choicest bits of raw hippOpOtamus
and rhinOcerOs steak for. speed in skin
ming, will be recalled by many. Capt.
Robert III. Bartlett. commander of the
Karluk, which carried StefansSOn TO
Arctic waters, says that on his return
from Herald island to northern Siberia
he found raw polar bear meat tasting
better than any piece de resistance he
had ever eaten in the home country.
The Frenchman likes his snailS and
wonders how anyone who accepts oys-
terS can refuse them. In Canton.
China, rats sell for 40 cents a dozen,
and dog steak brings more per pound
than leg of mutton The Chinese
mandarin pays $50 a pound for the
birds nests from which his soup is
cOncOcted. In parts of the West In
dies the palm worm is stewed in fat.
while certain African tribes are as
fond of caterpillars as an American
is of reed birds on toast. The Turk
is as disguised with the oysters we
eat as we are with the fish the COrsi-
can reliSheS.
Eating earth. or geophagy, is q
common thing in many parts Of the
world. In some parts of Europe q
butter is made of fine clay, AMI in
other regions various kinds of earths
are sold i'm the open market. The Per-
slams use some varieties of soil in max
ing their sweetmeats, while i'm Mexico
the eggs Of certain species of flies are
used by the Indians in making food
paste which is regarded as a great
delicacy."
