a certain home. This home was
such an example" OF the wrong
kinds of household decoration that

my readers.
It was indeed q pretty house, but
from top to bottom II looked more
like museum than q home. In
the dining room. for example. the
plate rail was loaded with orna-
mental mugs. fancy plates and pho
tographs. The sideboard and buffet
groaned under an array OF fancy

bowls and fancy sofa pillows. with

fancy pillows and pincushions COW
cred with lace and a thousand ar
ticles of ivory and silver on the
toilet tables.

beautiful and generally expensive,
but there was no unity, no har-
mOny between the furnishings and

keeper who poured in my ears her
tale Of woe about the drudgery Of
housework, and especially how
many hours 1t took her to keep
things clean. No wonder! That
house would have required the SER
vices of both an upstairs and par
lor maid in order to keep 1t In q
condition of genuine cleanness.
Yet she alone wondered why
things never looked clean" and

substitute which provides for voluntary
military training. "a direct test cannot
noWbe had on the compulsory provision.
Republicans and Democrats Joined in
the coup to prevent a record vote being
forced on the. issue ofssthe universal
training. The substitute for the mill.

by Senator Freling uysen Of New Jersey,
Republican and put into the army re-

Senator McCumber Of North Dakota
was one Of the nine advocates of uni
yersal training who refused to com,
promise on the volunteer plan. Senators
Nelson and, Kellogg Of Minnesota and

IF the house agrees to the voluntary
training plan, any young man onreaching
the age OF l8 Years, and for. ten years
thereafter, may apply for and receive
four lr months military training at Federal
