a dull knife. Rinse in clean, tepid
water, and allow the harness to stand
in warm place until it is no longer
wet but still damp. Then oil it and
| leave it in a warm place for "a hours
before being used. Harness should be
oiled or creased while still damp; 9TH
erwise, it may take up so much grease
that it will pull out of shape or take
up sand and grit, which will injure it,
as well gas spoil its appearance. Har-
ness should never look or feel
greasy.
Neat's-foOt or castor oil or a mix
ture of these with wool grease is good
for driving harness. For heavy har-
ness use a mixture of any or all of
these with wool grease to make a
paste, having about the consistency
of butter Apply the grease lightly TO
driving harness and literally to work
harness. Rub the oil or grease, warm
to the hand, thoroughly Into the leath-
er while it is still damp from wash
ing. After the iRrness has hung in a
warm room overnight, remove with a
clean dry cloth the excess of oil which
the leather is unable to take up.
Keep Belts Clean.
In selecting belt for driving ma
chinery, make sure that it is wide and
heavy enough for the load it Is TO
carry. Ordinarily the competent belt
makers advice as to thesproper belt
for a given installation should be fol-
lowed. If the belt is not suited to the
work it gives trouble continually,
causing shutdown of machinery that
will soon cost more in loss of time
and wages than many good belts. 1t
should always be sufficiently flexible
to cling closely TO the smallest pulley
over which it passes. A belt will not
give satisfactory results If it slips,
does not run true, is not properly
laced, is run too loose or too tight, is
subjected to rapid changes from light
to heavy loads. is alternately wet and
dry, is run on pulleys that are not
true or are too small for the weight
lected and allowed to deteriorate for
lack of grease.
The belt should be wiped off every
night to prevent dust, dirt. or oil from
working into it. When the belt needs
oiling clean it well. especially on the
pulley side, by washing with warm
water and a good neutral soap. Wash
rapidly and do not permit belt to be-
come wet. as 1t will then stretch and
slip Apply the dressing lightly and
evenly by rubbing it in with cotton
waste or a piece of felt. and allow
it to soak in the belt overnight. Among
the best belt dressings are mixtures
of cod and neatss-foot oils with tai
low and wool grease, free from min
eral acid.

keeps her tender affection and eter- nal gratitude"
 We have been told so many times that we arc great and noble that we shall begin to believe it. And why should we not? We must not take too great credit to ourselves for our en- tering the war at such a timely mo- ment. We knew that conquering Germany would endanger us to a de- gree that no man could foretell.
 But we know also that we entered the war with no hope of gain. And we know that we arc perhaps the only people which did this thing with this in the heart. True it is that we feared for our country: but true also is it that we might have demanded for ourselves the spells of victory. We did not: we do not intend to do so.
 True it is that there may be some ulterior motive in Viviani's visit; but let us attribute to him and to the French people the sincerity with which we know we would have voiced the same sentiment were the post tions to be reversed.

 (Robert RuSsell.)

A trippin'. dancin' dolly cried I'm way up in the air; I'm all at sea concernin' what the other dolls will wear when Springtime has arrived for keeps. an then when summers here" She upward turned an anxious face; there sparkled there a tear. If Susie should wear something grand and I wore last years style I know that I could never laugh again nor even smile. If Gracie's gown was up-to-date an mine looked plain an staid,- then nevermore could I rejoice-Td be a hopeless maid. And yet there are so many styles I know not what to do; I'd like to find out, heart o-heart, what life is leading to-" An older woman would reply: Your youth I envy you: what matters it at all what lots the other maidens do?" And she who's passed the middle age would soften to a smile: Its what youth wears, dear little girl, that makes the proper style" And grandma in her rocking chair would call her to her knee and whisper: What you feel is right-and so your gown should be-" My or fool pipe which ain't afraid to meddle anywhere allows its smoke to rise in wreaths most wonderfully rare.

PRESS CONGRESS TO
 MEET IN HONOLULU
Site Of Conference Historical to
 Printers

Honolulu, T. H., March , (Corre- spondence of The Associated Press). The Press Congress of the World, which will open in Honolulu in Octo- Der of this year, will hold its sessions stones throw from the spot where the first printing was done west of the Missouri river. almost one hundred years ago. The old coral building where the Ramage press, brought from Boston by Elisha Loomis. turned out it's first work on January l, 1922. still stands on King street, Honolulu's main thoroughfare. It is but few steps from the Iolani pal ace of monarchy days, now the cap- itol, where the press congress will convene.
 Entries in the diary of Elisha Loomis, which is preserved here, show that he and his precious printing ap- paratus left Boston on the brig Thad- deus which carried the first Christian missionaries to Hawaii, and landed in the islands April 9, 1920.
 Loomis, who was born in Middle sex, Yates county. New York. in De- cember. 1799. says in his diary that he started setting up his press in Honolulu in December of 1921, and on January 1, 1922, this entry ap- pears:
 This day commenced the first printing that was ever done at these islands. Governor Cox was present and printed the first sheet" )
 The governor referred to was the Hawaiian governor of the island of Oahu on which Honolulu is situated. He had been a warrior chief in the armies of King kamehameha the Great, who united all the islands un- der one crown.
 Loomis' press was used principally for printing educational matter for instruction of the Hawaiians by the missionaries, but an entry in his diary in March, 1922 shows that at that early date the king had realized its value and had sent him two royal de- crees to be printed for promulGa-e tion.
 The first newspaper turned out in Hawaii were printed in the Hawaiian tongue adapted to English letters one at Lahainaluna Island of Maui, called "Ka Lama Hawaii" or the Light of Hawaii, and the other at Honolulu called "Kumu Hawaii" or the Foundation of Hawaii. N
 Both of these papers appeared in 1894. From that day the press of the islands has grown until it embraces papers in Hawaiian, English, Portu- guese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Filipino. ....-..a ....... .-
 The press that made history and laid the foundation of educational work in Hawaii is in the Oregon his torical museum at Portland.
