NEED SCHOOLING IN BALLOT

In the counting of the votes cas-
at the late election it became arpar
ent that there are many who do not
understand the correct method o!
marking the ballot. One of the rea
sons for the vote for President bein4
smaller than that for some OF the local
Offices is that some voters, instead ot
making cross in the circle at the
head of the ticket made he cross in
front of or Immediately following the
name Of the candidate. In other in
stances the cross would be placed in
the square in front of the elector first
named In the first case the vote
could not be counted for President al
all, and in the second it would be
counted only for that particular
elector The intention Of the voter
was clear enough, but he did not fol
low the explicit directions laid down
in the law. In one instance it IS
known thai the voter followed his own
method of indicating how he wanted
his vote counted. Instead of making
cross in either circle or square, he
proceeded to write his wishes on the
ballot to vote for thus and so-a sort
of confidential letter to the election
judges. 1t is needless to say that he
lost his vote entirely.
There was another noticeable thnH
in this last election To the women
belong the credit for using a greater
degree Of intelligence In the prepare
ton OF their ticketS--teWer mistakes
We're made by them than the men in
the preparation of the ballot.
1t will be two years before there is
another general election, and PERHAPS
in the meantime there will be a more
simpliticd system adopted But it Will
be well for the old az well as tho new
voter TO more thoroughly study the
correct manner of voting.

SHORTAGE OF HOMES.

One million weddings were Cole
brated in the United States in 1919
but only 10000 new homes were built

housing problem in a nutshell II
was brought out at the recent con
vention in Chicago of the secretaries
of the commercial associations of the
United States The problem Of quar-
tering its inhabitants adequately Is
before every large city in the land
and declared one speaker at the con
vention, The United States is the
only great nation in the civilized
world that has ignored housing as a
national problem
Only 10000 houses were built il
1918, while twenty times that number
We're needed. Our normal increase
this year calls for the construction OF

The secretaries after considering
the problem went home to popular
