Business women by day and society
leaders by night Is the dual role being
played by several prominent members
Of New York society. Some have en-
tered the business world because of
shrinking family fortunes--others,
having been active in war work, are
loath to 60 back to the life Of the
social butterfly. The most recent ad-
dition to the society business women
ranks, Is Mrs. Charles DeLoosey DEL
richs who has taken charge of the sale
of perfumes for a New York import
ing company. Miss Elizabeth Mar
bury and Miss Elsie DeWolfe have
long been business women. Miss Mar
bury is a play broker and dabbles in
politics. Miss DeWolfe Is well known
as an interior decorator. And appar-
emily all are as successful in the bust
ness world as they are in the social
world, for not one Of the enterprises
they have engaged in has been
failure. ..

WOO[GROWERS ARE
TACkL|hG PROBLEM
DELEGATES At NATIONAL CON.
vENTIoN DISCUSS PLANS
FOR YEARS WORK.
VIII Endeavor to Secure the Protection
Of a Tariff and Will investigate
Measures Of Co operative Mar
keting and Manufacturing.

Salt Lake City.--At the Openins
session of the annual convention of the
National Woolgrowers' association, or
January II, 1t was made clear that the
woolgrowers will push their efforts to
secure the protection Of tariff; they
will investigate closely and adopt
measures Of cooperative marketing
they will avail themselves of the bene.
fits to be derived from the licensed
and bonded warehousing act, and they
will wear clothes made from pure
virgin wool grown in the United
States"
President Frank ]. Hagenbarth of
the association sounded the keynote
OF the convention as one of business,
one in which the sheepmen are to con-
fer on their urgent economic problems
and to take measures to deal with
them.
Upward of 500 sheepmen, and some
women, too, came from all the western
states and many eastern points to at
tend the convention. And they
brought with them, if not their fight
ing clothes, at least fighting frame of
mind; for there was no denying the
feeling present among those about the
convention hall that they are going to
get out and take most active meas
ures for the preservation and better
ment Of their industry.
The report of the success which has
attended the efforts of Montana
growers to find market for their
product, through the manufacture OF
their virgin wool into cloth for cloth
ing, into blankets and other CONNER
cial products, was welcomed with
roar Of approval.
President Hagenbarth was greeted
with prolonged applause when he char
acterized this work of the Montana
men as paving the way ito what per-
haps may lead to the greatest wool
mill In the country, and serving at
least notice to the middleman that the
producers are awake to their methods"
Governor Charles R. Mabey vel
coined the sheepmen on behalf Of the
state and was introduced by President
as one-time sheepherder
who knows the problems of the in
dustry. Governor Mabey expressed
his sympathy with the difficulties the
woolmen have encountered in recent
and pledged himself and the
state to their support.

INDIAN BOY IS REAL
TlRzAN OF THE APES
Stolen and Reared by Leopard,
Boy Has All Characteris-
tics Of Wild Animal.

The fantastic stories of Rudyard
Kipling's Mowgli and Of Tarzan Of the
Apes have found parallel in real
life In the case Of North India hill
baby stolen and reared by leopard
according to the Calcutta correspond
ent Of the London Morning Post.
Stuart Baker, when in the village Of
Dhungi, in the Cachar hills, in Indie 8
northeastern frontier, was confronted
in the local courthouse with protests
from certain native that he was un-
able to do his share of local road
mending, because If he left home his
little wild son would run away to the
Jungle. A#
Mr.. Baker visited the mans hut to
see the wild child" and found there
boy about seven, naked, who ran
about on all tours like small animal.
At the sight Of the stranger the child
smiled about him and ended by bolt
ing on all tours to his father, backing
between hts legs like an animal enter
ing burrOw. The child was almost
blind, suffering from cataracts, and his
head was covered with tiny scars and
scratches.
The fathers story is that when the
boy was two years old a female Loop
ard had come upon the child and moth
er in rice field, snatched the baby
from the mother and bounded away
into the jungle. A search was insti-
tuted, but no trace Of the child could
be found. Three years later sports
men tracked leopard to her lair and
killed her. There they captured two
cubs and the child, who had apparent
ly been reared with the leopard's lit
ter. The parents identified the child
and their claim was admitted by the
whole village.
When first caught the child bit and
fought with everyone who came near
him, and seized any village fowls
that he could capture, devouring them
savagely. He ran aboct on all tours
with extraordinary rapidity, and his
knees had hard callouses on them,
while his toes remained upright, al
most at right angles to the instep.
Later he learned to eat cooked food,
consented to sleep in his fathers hut,
and seemed to know the villagers by
sense of smell.
Mr.. Baker has contributed detailed
story of the case to the Journal of
the Bombay Natural History society.

say. with common honesty. Hitherto
1t has been a not infrequent practice
to undertake works or to incur ex-
penses greatly in excess Of appropria-
tions made or authorized, trusting
to subsequent legislation to make
good the cost. That sort Of thing,
Governor Miller makes plain, must
stop.
There must be no unauthorized
mortgaging in advance of state re-
sources; there must be no more
spending of money before it is
granted to be spent Neither must
there be any more starting Of new
enterprises before the old ones are
completed. In other words, the bust
ness of the state must be conducted
upon the sound principles which pre-
vail in successful private organize
tons.
Note that there is no suggestion Of
cheeseparing or skimping. There is
no thought of putting any function
of government on an impoverished
basis such as would be unworthy Of q
great and rich state. The purpose
OF the governor Is that the state gov
eminent shall continue in full and
even enhanced efficiency. But It
must stop waste. It must stop ex-
travagance. 1t must practice sound
business methods. It must pay its
way as it goes along. That is the
purport of the message, and that Is
what makes it a message to the
whole nation as we'll as to the EN-
pire state.
The reception of it is gratifying.
The men in the legislature who are
worth while and who represent the
people and not merely themselves
are loud in it's praise and hearty
in it's support; Democrats and Re-
publicans alike.
1t is the imperial voice of the EN-
p1re state, prescribing imperial econ
omy. 1t is not the Imperialism of an
autocrat or a despot, but of great
democratic people, who claim the
supreme sovereignty of their own az.
fairs. We may confidently trust that
1t will prove to be imperial in auth
GRITTY; so that If New York has of
late been an example to be avoided
in its recklessly mounting expenses
and its increasingly burdensome
taxes, 1t will now as certainly be an
example worthy of all emulation In
its wise and resolute economy and
its systematic business methods OF
government. There have been few
incidents Of the opening year more
promising Of good, and more inspir-
Ing to the people, than this admir-
able message Of the governor of New
fork.-The Idaho Statesman.

AMEN! FROM IDAHO
Extracts from Col. Harvey's article
on the message of Governor Miller
of New York;

Extracts from Col. Harvey's article
on the message of Governor Miller
of New York;
Imperial at last is the voice of the
Empire state. Too often in the past
beginning in the Clintonian days
that voice has been uncertain, and
the influence of the greatest of states
in national affairs has been frittered
away, or sacrificed to the sordid pet.
tiness of local politics. But in 1920
New York found herself. She had
suffered long and much from the fol-
lies and extravagances of self-seek-
ing politicians, until her public
finances had become reproach ia
honest men. Then she arose and
chose for herself a chief executive,
who with impressive authority, now
speaks in tones which New York must
heed, and which the whole nation
must profitably hear.
"The way to resume" said po-
litical sage of the last generation, in
speaking of the restoration Of specia
payments, is to resume" So Gov
ernor Miller in effect declares that
the way to economic is-to econo-
mize. Heretofore, state financiers
have busted themselves with search
ing for new sources of revenue, in
order to increase taxation and to
make it possible to spend more
money. Governor Miller would re-
verse the process. Instead of trying
to see how much money could be
raised BY taxation, he would see how
low the total of expenditures might
be kept.
There are two ways of making a
budget balance; one is to increase
the revenue, the other is to decrease
the expenses. Governor Miller, with
admirable wisdom, prescribes the
latter course. There must be no in
crease of salaries. That is one SAIL
ent point. Today is day of falling
figures. Wages are declining. If
official salaries are not reduced, they
must at least stand as they are. They
must not be increased. But that is
not enough. That is merely negative
economy. There must be positive
reduction of expenses, and that is
also prescribed by business common
sense. Governor Miller points out,
with the authority of expert knowl-
edge, a great array Of departments
or bureaus or commissions which
can be abolished, with great saving
Of money, and with no loss, but
rather an increase of efficiency. Of
fees which are no longer needed, or
which overlap or duplicate others in
their functions, do not add to, but
impair the competence of the govern
ment. This point is one which not
ably commends Governor Miller's
message to nationwide consideration
and, we may say, to consideration at
Washington; since the national gov
eminent is VIGOROUSLY and indis-
putably in need of q very extensive
pruning Of precisely the sort which
the governor urges on q lesser scale
for New York.
A third point has to do not only
with economy, but also, We should
