Harding's election looks good to .
man who wants open gambling and
who believes in weakening of the
Volstead law, so a man named J. n.
Little, who halls from Ohio. is quoted
in . Tacoma paper Tuesday after
noon. This Mr.. Little has offered
his services to Guy Kelley and has
been accepted.
According to Mr.. Little, the pro-
posed Simms bill, which contem-
plates q ban on the sending Of base
ball scores or racing results from one
state to another, il causing, a sitra-
ton In Kentucky that may mean the
loss of this unit Of the solid south"
to the democrats.
"Kentucky's big inrustry is horse
raising and the racing Of running
horses is its chief pnstime." said Mr..
Little. "The Simps anti-gamblins
bill is not, therefore. likely to be
swallowed in Kentucky, where. racing
is still the king Of sports. There is .
strong sentiment against this demo-
cratic party measure and when I vis-
tied Kentucky recently It looked hxe

In other words. Harding hopes to win
by help of lawbreakers.
In Kansas City and st. Louis, the
two cities which are considered domt-
nant in the control Of politics in Mis-
souri,, particularly those that oppose
puritanical law enforcement alorg
the lines OF drink and gambling,
everything looked safe for the repub.
licans, Mr.. Little said.
"In Indiana and Illinois the repub-
licans are assured of victory. The
difference between Lowden aad
Thompson are purely local and will
not have q tendency to hurt the nj
tional ticket" both factions being in
favor Of gambling.
Mr.. Little said that the New Eng
land states are ''scwed up tight" Cor
the republicans. They will vote the
ticket reGerdless Of the issues.
"In New Jersey l am OF the optn-
ion that the wet and dry issues upon
which Cox has been basing his hopes
and tears in this section are fast
being dissipated." said Mr.. Little.
"The people Of the East nre taking q
different view of the future actions Of
congress in legislation of this sort.
They are feeling that congress, in
stead of taking the don't do this
stand, is going to pass legislation on
prohibitive measures that will say
how to do this" The republican
candidate being opposed to prohibit
ing, but in favor showing how to use
liquor. Therefore, it is pretty safe
to say that New Jersey will see that
republican congressional representa-
tives and a republican president care
sent to Washington.
"The burning issues Of the cam
paign as viewed in the East Is not

ton of whether the people want four
more years of wisconsin or whether
they want the election of congress

to another. Then the carpet sweeper made its bow only to be replaced by the more efficient electric cleaner. And by these steps We have arrived at the easiest, most sanitary and thor ough method of cleaning the home and keeping it always neat and clean.
 In the living room are rugs, per haps highly prized with delicate color ings easily dimmed by dirt They should be kept clean for it is dirt that cuts the nap and shortens the life of rugs. It is not hard to keep them clean with a modern cleaner which runs lightly over any kind of rug. The cleaner does all the work. supplies all the energy and all the while unseen, the dirt is being removed dustlessly. from the fabric of the rugs.
 Keeping the dining room spotless is a simple matter if the cleaner is run over the rug after each meal. Crumbs and soft food particles are picked up without injury to the rugs and the life of the floor covering is thus length ened.

GREEKS MARVEL AT
 WASHING MACHINES

The American washing machine has penetrated the ancient Greek island of Mitylene in the Aegean Sea. Its ad- vent has electrified the good wives of that locality who for centuries have washed clothes without soap and by a peculiar process of their own. After threshing the clothes on the seaside rocks they place them in a wicker bas- ket over which was placed a cloth sprinkled with ashes. Hot water was then poured over the ashes. producing a I've wash which seeped through the covering cloth and bleached the clothes. It took many women to com piete this primitive method of launder- ing.
 A Nebraska Red Cross woman re- gently exhibited the working of the modern American washing machine at the Red Cross warehouse before Q crowd of several interested women. They saw her put several soiled gar ments Into tub with a cake of soap top and start turning a crank. In ten minutes she announced the clothes were clean. Several in the crowd snickered. But when the clothes were taken out white and clean, there was a babel of Greek amaZement, and the women fought to examine the ma chine and to turn the crank at the second demons tration. Yet American women who enjoy the convenience of an electric washes sometimes say: Well, will it take the clothes out and hang them on the line?

MODERN EQUIPMENT
 IN HOMES UNKNOWN
 THROUGHOUT FRANCE

American people would nightly ap- preciate gas service, electric light, telephone, bath tubs, sewerage, if they could live in France a few months Only the very rich people over there have such conyenienceS and many wealthy folks still cling to the old GUS toms. There may be some homes in France which have been built during the last hundred years, but they are few and far between.
 The women of the working class take their washing to the creek or canal and lean over using the creek or canal for their wash tub- In the larger cities, the municipality main tains floating bargeS along the river where the women can squat around the edge and wash their clothes, thus staying out of the mud. Some few of them are provided with stoves and vessels for boiling the clothes.
 In the kitchen one seldom sees coal stove if firewood is available. Much of the cooking is done in ire places The French consume lots or soup which is easily cooked in d pot over the fire and vessel set on the coaIs stews or fries other foods
 Where a coal stove is present they ys1IalIv burn charcoal, a small handful is put in a little hollowed- -out place under a wire grating, there being sev- ersI of these places on the stove so that several foods can cook at once. A hot fire is obtained by blowing the coals energetically with a bellows and only the exact amount of charcoal re- quired to cook the food is consumed, the bellows being the regulating me dium. The harder you work the not ter the fire. This may be very eco nomicai but it is terribly inconVen- ient. Just think of the dirt, drudg- cry. the time taken to do the work

ONE PRINCIPLE FOR
 USING APPLIANCES

The fundamental principle for the use of electric appliances is this: When you are not continuously using any appliance, turn off the current. To do this, disconnect the flat iron. curling iron or other appliance by pulling out the plug. Do not be content with turn ing off the current at the lamp socket. Today no household is complete with out the electric iron, and there should be no question as to it's proper and economical use. It is absolutely nec- essary that the current be completely cut off when the iron is not in constant use. A great many electrical appliances such as samovars, chafing dishes. per colators and water heaters arc now equipped with fuse-nuts which melt and automatically shut off current, thus preventing damage and the neces- sity for repairs Even so, don't for get to disconnect the plug.

CHORUS GIRLS ARE SCARCE

Theatrical managers and producers are becoming alarmed at the shortage of chorus girls-and to think that there used to be so many of them the pro- ducer had to hide himself to keep from being overwhelmed with applications, This is the word that comes out of New York, al any rate.
 Tn the good days gone. it said, the chorus girls received larger pay than they could get in the shops or factories or offices. Besides. there was the lure of the stage, which has ceased to lure since the pay of women in business is so much more than it is upon the stage. It is said that the shops of New York, and even the factories, pay much better wages than is possible with the theaters As one observer puts it. better money can be obtained in the shops. in the canning factories, in the laundries than upon the stage" -(Columbus Dispatch).

No man, even of three-scOre-aye,

this law to fail In a single season. 1t
knows ne variation In all the cycles of
time.
But grains and fruits are not all
that we are garnerlng. Chaff and
weeds are not all we ought to sepa-

more important still. In the store

Is 1t not we'll to seek, just as care

When the bleak November of life
comes we shall have need of them.
Dreary will be the winter to him
whose granaries are empty. But
drearier and more desolate still must
be the winter of old age to the man
or woman whose mind and heart and
soul have brought from the harvest
only the joys that are chaff and the
virtues that are mere windfalls, at
tanned and adhered to only through
easy convenience.
When that winter comes, as It must

more, to sustain us or to render US
desolate.
We may, If we will, make each day
a cycle of all the seasons. We sow
each morning and reap each noon and
garner each evening the fruits of our

think and Thank"
Suggested Motto
for Nation Today

Think and Thank" was the motto
upon the family crest Of the great He
brew philanthropist Sir Moses Monte
nore' 1t would be an appropriate
armorial motto for America today
These two little English words, differ
Ing In a single vowel, were originally
Identical. In the Anglo-Saxon tongue,
q thank" was think" Thanking
comes from thinking. and thankful
ness from thoughtfulness and thanks
giving from thought-giving. This will
be season of unusual Thanksgiving
for we are made to think as we have
not been won't to think. II will be
very selfish soul that this season
falls to think of the sorrows and the
sufferings OF others.
Look back at that first American
Thanksgiving. Strange skies, sparse
settlements, sparse Iarder savage en-
envy, but thankful spirit! What makes
the memory Of the Pilgrim so pre-
cious? His thankfulness As Howell
puts it:
1T is no improper comparison that
a thankful heart Is like box of pre-
cious ointment which keeps the smell
long after the thing is spent"
The Pilgrim and the Puritan have
passed on, but they have left us
precious possession-a Thanksgivin
day and the Thanksgiving spirit
Theirs was the indomltable spirit be
cause they thanked God and took
courage" They landed undeslgnedIy
on ''rock-bound wintry strand" but
they thanked God and took courage.
They found no gold, but they did find
the golden grain Of a first harvest and
they thanked God and took courage.
They found a rude wilderness, but
they thanked God and took courage,
and burrows were turned and towns
were built and cities grew and facto-
ries tiourished and culture developed
and instead of a wilderness a garden
blossomed and the fragrance OF their
memory still survives and the spirit
of their grace still inspires.

Divine Lesson in
the Garnering of
the Golden Grain

The summer is over and the har-
rest Is past. The sad skies, the bleak
Aelds, the bare trees the raw winds
that whistle and groan and sob and
sigh their dirges mournfully remind us
that the season of fruitage has gone
by and the time has come when we
can only turn away. each to himself,
and measure up our garnerings.
Nature gives us a seed time and a
harvest time.
But these would be meaningless to
as did she not also send a season
when, at the warning touch of winter
chill, we must measure our gains and
consider our losses.
But for the lessons Of this season
no man would labor; we would know
naught Of temperance or thrift; we
would go through the bright spring
only singing, and idle away the sum,
mer in dreams.
So 1t Is part of the divine plan that
each OF us should now go apart and
carefully separate the wheat from the
1hHA'At AihI Ho"NAS II pill AitC nCGbSt cIlu
that which Is good and sound and en-
during from all that perishes and
taints. 1t Is now that each must hon
eStly examine and weigh the product
OF his own works
1t were useless now to try to de-
cetve even ourselves.
Now, II at no other time, we see
the vast difference In value between
the picked fruit and the windfalls.
The one heap we proudly store
away, knowing 1t will keep sweet and
whole to the winters depths, and the
other we cast aside that it may not
contaminate as 1t rots.
1t is sad sweet task-sweet for
the counted gains, sad for the oppor-
tunities lost and to come no more.
And as VIC garner the gains we also
garner wisdom.
AS We separate the wheat from the
chaff and the sound fruit from the
windfalls, so, whether we will or not.
