CLUB GIRLS WORK RESULTS
IN BUILDING FAMILY HOME

Three years ago Irene Garner, Of
Madison county, Ala, joined a girls
gardening and canning club. Each
year since she has cleared q good
profit on her work. She gave this to
her parents on condition that they
build themselves new home as soon
as possible. The time before they
decided on the step seemed long to
the little club girl, but meanwhile
she kept industriously at the club
work and followed her leaders in
structions. Soon the results of her
efforts became apparent in the home
Then she persuaded her father to
take up newer lines Of development
on his farm. and last year he built
the modern, attractive country home
which had been promised her.
Irene learned from her club leader
how to finish floors and woodwork
and how to paper q wall. Then she
and a small brother put the lessons
into practice and the whole interior
of the house was finished by their
efforts.
Z Her own room she furnished with
q quaint old suite Of furniture which
she made over. The rag rug on the
floor she made herself as we'll as tho
curtains at the window. Little
money was expended, but much taste
and ingenuity were put into the
room.
Besides being an expert gardener
and Gamer, this Madison county girl
can embroider and sew. can cook
nicely, and serve q properly balanced
meal. Last but not least, she finds
time to be leader Of her community
In all social affairs.

Olympia.
Follows South Bank Hob River.
The resolution favoring the ocean
beach route of the highway, rather
than the hill route, commonly known
as the Christmas Greek route, was
introduced by Senator P. H. Carlyon,
and met with unanimous approval.
The approval Of this route means
that after crossing the Hob that the
highway would follow down the south
bank Of the river to the mouth and
thence auong the coast to the Queets
river, thence up the Queets to a spot
already located as the most suitable
for a bridge, and then to a connec-
ton with the Quinault lake road. 1t
was the sentiment of the meeting
that this route was not only the
only one that would be acceptable to
the people of the state from tourist
standpoint, but that it would serve a
larger amount of settlers auong this
course. The Christmas Creek survey
runs higher up and farther back
from the coast and would be i'm
passable part of the year on account
of snow.
A resolution by Clifford l.. Babcock
provided that the funds appropriated
for the construction of the gap in the
highway should be spent in approx
mately even amounts on the north
and south ends of the road. This
motion carried unanimously.
Meet Again Eve Inaugural Ball.
Representative Mark E. Reed
offered motion asking that copies OF
all the resolutions at the meeting be
certified and sent to the state high
way board for their considerations.
This motion carried and after decid-
ing to meet in Olympia again on the
afternoon preceding the inaugural
ball sometime early in January, the
meeting was adjourned.
The only other business taken up
at the meeting was the question OF
q membership campaign which was
briefly outlined by Secretary Fultz..
The membership campaign will be
undertaken at once and 1t Is expected
that several hundred members Of the
association will be present when the
meeting is held here in January.
Pictures of the peninsula taken by
Photographer Joseph LETTERS during
the summer aroused great interest
among the members present. with the
result that the association will no
doubt issue highway booklet con-
tanning great number Of the views.

Fights Grand
Jury Revelations

Grand Rapids. Mich, Feb. 6-What
three Newberry men told the grand
jury which returned indictments
against them, the Michigan senator
and more than a hundred other cam
paigners of 1918. was told in the trial
Of the case here today.
The revelations of the inquisitor-
ial proceedings came from c. r. Hig-
been of Benton Harbor. clerk of the
grand jury and Charles Potts of
Hastings, q member of the body.
They said the defendants whose
testimony they rehearsed had waived
immunity. testified voluntarily with
out receiving promises Of any kind
and with full knowledge that what
they told the grand jury would be
used for all purposes"
The defense fought hard to keep
the testimony from the trial jury.
Martin W. Littleton. of defense
counsel, constantly questioned the
admissibility of the evidence and
tested the memories of Higbee and
Potts. He was overruled on the ex-
clusion question but Judge Clarencve
W. Sessions held that the testimony
could be considered in the present
proceedings only against the three
defendants whose grand jury testi-
mony was rehearsed.

Charles D. Newton, attorney general

siredering anti-sedition legislation.
Though differing with the New

and seriousness Of the radical move
ment, Francis II. e. Kane, who re-
signed as district attorney for east
ern Pennsylvania because he dis
agreed with the department of JUS
tice in its campaign against radicals.
admitted that education was needed
because many members of the COM

radical parties were ignorant of the
purposes of the organizations and
signed membership cards under false
assumption.
