Since the testimony of General
Charles G.. Dawes before Il Congress
sional Investigating Committee dur
ing which he used such eXpletives as
Hell and Maria" the present Direc-
tor of the Budget has calmed down to
{ great extent. SO far as known, there
have been no further outbreaks" of
the kind on his part and he is going
ahead with his task of reducing gov
ernment expenditures as we'll as gov
erpment pay rolls in a highly digni-
fed and perfectly calm manner. Not
that he has lost any of his pep" and
vigor since he left the army. Far from
it as those under him will testify.
But Washington atmosphere seems to
have had rather soothing effect upon
him and he is not nearly so fiery as
heretofore.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wife Of the
former occupant of the White House
is one of the few women of the coun-
try who ever inspected the original
copy of the Declaration Of lndepend-
ence, the Constitution Of the United
States and the treaty with Great
Britain which ended the Revolutionary
War. Shortly before she left the
White House. Mrs. Wilson was invited
by the then Secretary Of State Colby
to visit the State Department and in
spect these precious documents. They
are exposed to view only on rare oc
casions and it was the first time in
the memory Of the Oldest attaches Of
the State Department that he mis-
tress of the White House had called to
see them.

those of President Grant and each
succeeding occupant of the White
House up to the present time. It con-
tains the autograph of Warren G.
Harding. written in March, 1919.

Representative Andrew Jackson
Montague, Of Virginia, is regarded by
his colleagues as one of the strongest
men in the House. He has wonderful
record of achievements as public Of
ficial and each position he has filled
with honor and credit, his friends
say.
He is profound student and most
forciblc speaker. He seldom takes part
in the rough and tumble debates in
the House but when he daes take the
rostrum he is listened to by friend
and foe politically speaking) with the
utmost attention. The former Gov
ernor of the Old Dominion can be de-
pended upon to say something worth
while and to add a good deal of in
formation to the subject matter un-
der discussion in the House.

Come and join usl"
Many thoughtless acts of young
boys, if wisely handled, would in most
cases result in the boy himself seeing
the fault and refraining therefrom.
But, on the other hand, if the brand
Of criminality be ruthlessly and pub
liciy placed upon him, thereby break
ing his pride, with the shame Of dis
grace forever cast upon him, there
is nothing left to appeal to. In de-
stroying boys pride he is irretriev-
ably driven toward a criminal career,
unless he is fortunate in having wise
influences surrounding him, strong
enough to save him from the reckless
condition of his mind caused by the
sting of encouragement of the blow
he has received. While we are more
than anxious that the laws of our
government be enforced, we at the
same time urge that kindness and
thoughtfulness be employed in saw
ing the future of our boys, who are
the hope of our country-the hope of
the future world.

Market officials in two States issued
an appeal against waste of foods. Conn
missioner O'Malley suggested prudence
in the use OF food and especially in the
handling OF food supplies. The Bureau Of
Markets in the New Jersey Department
Of Markets protested against a situation
in which 100.000,000 heads of lettuce
arc going to waste on Jersey farms be-
cause the growers cannot get their
prices. Many lettuce growers In Jersey
are ploughing In their crops.

that In case Of tieup the steamships,
