A loose nut is a thing that is too
far from the work that is in need
of being done or that which is only
partly performing its duty. The rem
edy is to bring the thing nearer the
given task.
We judge people largely by their
appearance. IL we see a man with
has hat at one side of his head and
with uncombed hair, we place him in
one class and the man with polished
shoes, clean shave, we unconscious
ly place in another class. So it is
with cities, if we pass through city
that is tidy and neat we at once feel
the effect and are glad that we came
that way but if we pass through an
other that-is dirty and things have a
slouchy appearance, we do not forget
it and IL becomes a reproach.
Every citizen and all who pass
through our fair city, without doubt,
have noticed the intoxicated condition
of our street signs which condition
does not speak well for us in these
prohibition days. Some of them have
been completely overcome and are ly-
ing PROSTATE on the ground, others
are waving their arms in all direc-
tions as if signaling for help, while
others have been removed from the
scene of action entirely. The only
reason for such conditions is that
there is "loosc nut" that needs to
be brought nearer to the place where
IL is supposed to be functioning.
Street signs are as much of ne
cessity to a city as an index is to a
book, and further, these signs should
show the proper street. How dis
appointing it is to have a sign turned
so that you find yourself on Monroe
when you thought you were on Mich
igan. Delivery men, mail carriers,
and strangers in our city lose much
time in trying to find certain streets
and certain numbers on these streets
and il is probably true that the time
lost, in toto, would pay for the pur-
chase and m maintenance of such signs.
At the present rate, it will not be
long before we will have no street
signs, for many of them have already
been broken off and the standards
carried away, while others have but
one sign left.
Would it not be well, for the sake
of appearances, to send a man out
with a wrench and have him tighten
the loose nut" at the top of each
standard, for that is all that is need
ed to place our street signs square
with the world? l.. T.. West

CATALOG HOUSES SUFFER

While three of the largest retail
chain concerns, Woolworth, Kresge and
Penney, showed June sales as large as,
or larger than a year ago, and all but
two of the chain stores enumerated
below registered heavier sales for the
half year than for the same six months
of 1920, the mail order houses report
ed big decreases.
Sears Roebuck sales decreased over
50, SOC, 900 and Montgomery Ward over
$4,000, 900 in June, or 20 per cent and
81 per zen respectively, as compared
with June, 1920. Six months volume
for these two companies was $51 ,000,-

than for the half year in 1920, or a SO

the sales recorded in October, 1919,

"A birthday the little maid arrives
at the threshold of her millinery ex-
periences and begins to wear blocked
hats. If it be summer time she comes
into possession of a fine soft milan or
other straw and for winter she finds
herself in possession of beaver or felt
headwear. In either caSe the hat will
be simple in design and in trimming
and of the same character as those
made for her each season until she is
counting her years in teens"
1t is astonishing to find the great
variety in shapes and sizes made in
these blocked hats which at first
glance seem SO simple. But when it is
considered that they must suit so
many ages and so many types the ne
cessity for numerous shapes and varia-

kitchenet Lizards,

Brides are to blame. Of course we
might have known it in advance. From
the earliest recorded shortage of the
apple crop, "the woman thous gavest"
has always been responsible for every
human i'll.
Now she is to blame for the short
age Of homes. F. Z. Davidson, pres
ident of the Illinois Society Of Archi-
tects, says that the -rt3ern bride is
a "kitchenet lizard woa sends down
to the corner delicaIessser store for
the evening meal and who would
rather ride in an automobile than own
a home"
Gracious! What an incident! Is il
true? In all candor we have to adj
nit that there is some basis for the
contention. Some girls, not all by
any means, but enough to make a
good-sized condition." are brought
up to be household pets. They get a
more or less thorough education in
the accomplishments and for the rest,
they dress and dance and flirt, and
when they come to the business of
home-making, a kitchenet looks like
trouble enough. It's all a matter of
not knowing how to work and es-
pecially to turn work off easily as
their grandmothers did.

TACKLES MOSQUITOES

Chicago, Aug. 16.--A plague of
baby mosquitoes which has descended
in clouds on suburban towns surround
ing Chicago recently has resulted in
many appeals to the health authori-
ties for aid, it was announced today.
At Hinsdale, it was reported, citi-
zens were appearing on the streets
carrying famed torches to combat
the pests. The torches are made by
attaching the top of a baking powder
can to a broom stick. The top of the
can is filled with kerosene into which
the insects fall, and are drownded.
So numerous are the insects that
autoists have complained that they
have stopped their cars by flying into
and plugging up the radiators of the
machines and thus causing the en-
gines to overhead.
One golf club recently placed an
order for hundreds of bird houses to
be placed about its links in the hope
that the birds would eat the mos
quitoes.

EGGS MUST BE GOOD
OR LAW is VIOLATED

Helena, August 13.-Any purchas-
err or consumer of eggs in Montana
who gets eggs of poor quality, has
the power in his own hands to remedy
matters. If he gets eggs of poor
quality, it is almost certain that the
seller of the eggs has violated the
very stringent law enacted last win
ter by the Legislature, regulating the
sale and labelling of eggs in the state.
In an opinion to the Department of
Agriculture, Labor & Industry, At
torney General W. D. Rankin holds
that while health officers are espec-
tally charged with the enforcement
of the egg marketing law, Section
9033 of the Revised Codes expressly
gives a private citizen the right and
makes it his duty to swear to a COM
plant from any violation of the law,
and the mere fact that someone is
especially charged with the duty of
enforcing a certain law does not af-
feet the foregoing provision" He
further advises the Department Of
Agriculture that it is the duty of
county attorneys to prosecute COM
Section five of the egg law provides
that every person buying or selling
eggs within the state before offer
ing any eggs for sale shall candle the
same, and any eggs found to be un-
fit for food purposes shall not be Of
fered for sale for food purposes"
Eggs imported into Montana from
foreign countries must be sold as
such. The case or container in which
they are shipped must have the
words "foreign eggs" displayed in
letters two inches high. Retailers
can only sell such eggs from the con-
tainer in which he received them and
he must inform each purchaser that
the eggs were imported from a for
eign country. Further, all restau-
rants, hotels, bakeries and other
places using such eggs must have a
sign not less than four inches high,
displayed in a conspicuous place,
reading: "We Use Foreign Eggs"
The law also provides that NO firm
or PERSON shall sell, agree to sell,
or advertise for sale, any cold stor-
age or preserved eggs without max
ing the fact known to the prospec-
tive purchaser that the Eggs are of
the storage or preserved variety. All
boxes or other recptacles in which
cold c+orage or preserved eggs are
| diSplaved for sale. sold or delivered
shall be marked or lettered in a con-
spicuous manner with the words "Cold
Storage Eggs, or preserved Eggs"
The penalty for the first offense is
a fine of not less than S25 nor more
than $75; for the second ~offense, a
fine Of not less than $50 0 more
than 5000; and for the third and sub
sequent offenses, a fine of not less
than 500 and Imprisonment for not
less than 80 days nor more than 80
days.

The wal which was technically end

Use of bountiful crops throughout the
land is almost fulfilled. We have
managed to reduce our debts to one
another nearly a billion dollars with
in the past II months. Wage disputes
are being adjusted in many sections,
and building-that great stimulant to
so many other industries-is gradu-
ally being resumed after five years
Of inactivity. The number of idle
freight cars, which a few months ago
totaled 100000, the largest in our
history, is steadily growing less. The
railroads, while by no mean recov-
cred from the blighting paralysis Of
governmental control, are commenc-
ing to see light ahead, and orders
for material and supplies are begin
ming to appear in a small way. The
shelves and counters of the merchants
are but scantily stocked. These will
have to be replenished before long,
which means resumption of produc-
ton of raw materials and resumed
activity in mill and factories. These
will not all start at once on full time,
but they will start.
The task of reorganization and re-
adjustment is colossal. Very few
realize how badly shattered business
has been. 1t still suffers from she'll
shock, although it was several thous-
and miles removed from exploding
shells. The stock-market quotations
tell the story of billions of lessened
values, and dividends passed. Yet
we are not in panic, and u banks
are not closing their doors. The new
administration has promised to econ
omize and give business a chance.
That business incubus, the excess
profits tax, is soon to be repealed.
We are at peace with all the world
and expect to remain so.

war prices to peace values are being
