one of the things that have been
accepted as of more Importance
than the old type of school lessons
learned from books, to secure
which we have always been willing
to stunt the children's bodies. 1t
has for its ultimate purpose the
physical regeneration of the race;
nor does there seem much doubt
that it will some day be more OF
less completely realized.

Good Use Of Peroxide

GOOD Use OF PEROXIDE
When the table linen is on the
line and it is stained from fruit,
tea or coffee, saturate the spots
with peroxide and when they are
dry the spots will have disappeared.
Do not use this, however, for
eolored clothes.
A good way to stretch a small
portion of meat for the family is
to chop it and mix it with noodles
and a little brown or cream sauce.
This may be served in one casse-
role dish, or in the small ramekins
covered with buttered crumbs and
baked.
Moths have an aversion to
printers ink, SO when you are
packing away furs or wool gar
ments wrap them in newspapers.

GLEE CLUB ENTERTAINMENT.

Those of our people who attended the
concert last Friday evening by mem.
bers of the Ladies' Glee Club of the
State Agricultural College at Fort Col
Inns were given rare treat in the
musical numbers that were furnished.
After their snappy college song,
"Come On Aggies,' violin obligato
was rendered by Miss Editha Tod
who is certainly an artist on the vio-
lin, and who was highly applauded for
this number and for her solo number.
Rorothy Becker beautifully rendered a
vocal solo, "Today Is Fair" Miss
Becker has very powerful voice,
which is a very essential part Of the
club, both in solo and chorus work.
Perhaps one of the best numbers of
the program was the reading, 1.-the
Debat ng Society" by Miss Frances
Kelso, sweet little miss and one Of
the youngest members of the club. She
is a most excellent reader, full of vim
and sparkle, and eaptivates her audi
ence from the first.
The second part of the program was
an opera, "The japanese Girl" The
parts were all well rendered and in
good japanese style.
Much credit should be given Profess
sor Alexander Emslie, the director OF
the club, who is responsible in great
part for the work done by the chorus
through his training.
The Boy Scouts and Camp Fire girls
of this city, under whose auspicei
entertainment was given, received as
their part of the proceeds about nine
dollars, which they VIII use to good ad-
vantage in purchasing equipment 70;
their meeting house.

MILITARY COMPANY
TO Be ORGANIZED

Our people vsse surprised and dis
appointed WHOM Major B. N. Lake, =
member Of tho state Legislature and N
employe Of the Office Of Adjutant Gen
eral Pat HAmroek's Office, arrived in
Glsnwoed Thursday morning with i'm
struetions to move the equipment here
tofore used by Company L Of this place
to Nontrose for use of a new company
being organised at that place, Major
Lake also being authorized to confer
with one or two parties who were said
to be in the market for the purchase
Of the Armory building.
The result was an interesting meet
ing at the Armory Thursday evening,
over fifty of our business men being
present. Mayor Mcdonald presided,
and during the evening all voiced a
desire to have local company, and to
have the armory retained for the pur-
pose for which it was originally pur-
chased.
Earlier in the day, whep Major Lake
learned the real situation in Glenwood,
he called up Colonel Hanroek and g
cured that officials agreement to hold
in allegiance the sale of the Armory,
pending action on the part Of Glenwood
to organize q company to take the place
of Company L, which for some time has
not been active.
Apparently the result of Major Lake g
visit to Glenwood has been to acquaint
the adjutant generals office with infor-
nation that office has heretofore been
ignorant Of, apparently through he neg
lect Of someone, and thereby to cause
an unfortunate Misunderstanding.
The spirit of the meeting was OK
cellent, and motion prevailed that a
committee consisting Of three members
from the American Legion and three
from the Chamber of Commerce, be
appointed, with Judge Bell as chairman.
The committee named consists of Judge
Bell, DR.. Lippincott, William Noonan
and r. McGuirk, Jr., from the Ameri-
can Legion; H. o. switzer, Lester Soule
and Ollie Thorson from the Chamber Of
Commerce
This committee will at once circulate
a petition for new company, with a
request that it be made a machine gun
battery after next July, when an ap-
preparation will be available for that
purpose. This committee will at once
get busy on the new undertaking with
the hope Of abundant success.

greeted by large number of our citi-
zens interested in Miss Craig's work
in behalf of better educational advan.
taees for our boys and girls.

CRIMINAL CASES
IN DISTRICT COURT

Sanee the hearing OF the murder

othsg criminal cases have been disposed
Of II tie criminal court this week.
FeilsNng the disposition Of tho case
agaiaet BsrsAenyi on q charge of muir

iams, charged with gambling, was
heard by jury, and the defendant was
acquitted.
This was ease wherein q number of
men were arrested by the sheriff on q
charge Of operating a gambling game.
Nearly all Of the men pleaded guilty
and were fined for the offense, which
fine they paid.
Williams was not arrested in the
place and around the gambling table,
as were the other men, although the
officers believed he was meeting those
with desire to gamble, and was stesr-
ing them down to the room, where they
had . good opportunity Of being sep
arated from their money. The evidence
was not very strong and convincing
against Williams, and he was acquit-
ted BY the jury.
DR.. b. G. Bigham, who spent last
winter in Glenwood, and who left here
on invitation of the city night marshal,
was recently arrested by UndersheriG
Winters in Georgetown and brought to
Glenwood on a charge of having prac-
ticed in this county the profession of
dentistry without a state license, and
to the financial loss Of some of his pa.
tents, from whom he collected money
for new teeth which he has not yet de.
livered.
Bigham pleaded guilty to the charge
and he was therefore sentenced to 81
days Imprisonment in the county Jail
Judge Shumate intimated that if the
prisoner could give assurance of good
behavior, it might be all right for the
sheriff to give him his freedom before
the expiration of his sentence. The
doctor declared that his conduct was nj.

Florence Tanksley (colored) was
brought before the court on a charge
of violating the prohibitory laws of the
state, the charge being that she had in
her possession at her home on Palmer
avenue certain quantity of whiskey
and also certain quantity of ferment
ed mash, from which other whiskey
was being made.
Florence had pleaded not guilty some
time ago, and she was very mad because
she was accused Of this crime. But
when she faced the court this week she
pleaded guilty and was fined by Judge
Shumate $50 and costs. Judge Shu.
mate assured the prisoner that the next
conviction meant the pcnitentiary, and
he advised her to mend her ways and
be in hurry about it. He then or.
dered the sheriff to destroy the mash
that had SO long been held in evidence,
and advised him to be careful that the
pigs were not allowed to get it, evil

LABOR AND INDUSTRIAL

Industrial unrest which manifested
itself during the period of reaction i'm
medlately following the war. became
even more marked during the wear
1920. Radical activities were involved
in some of the labor disputes in tbis
country, but this was true to much
larger extent in the labor troubles thar
beset most of the countries Of EurOpe
during the greater part of the year.
The first month of the year was
marked, in the United States, by the
abandonment of the steel workers
strike which had been begun on Sen
TENDER %.
Railroad traffic was tied uD in
France, February 81, by a general
strike of rail workers. The premier
called all the strikers into the army,
and two DAYS later the strike was set
tied by compromise.
Peace was declared between the
bituminOus coal operators and miners
March 81, when they signed two
year agreement based on an award
made by the coal commission named
by President Wilson.
An "Outlaw" strike of railroad
switchmen began in Chicago April IS,
and spread rapidly to other parts of
the country. Federal officers arrested
30 leaders Of the strike in Chic. 20,
April Is, on charges of interfering with
the mails and violation of the Lever
act. On April 10 the joint railroad
wage board created by the Cummins-
Esch bill, announced that it would not
hear cases of men who were on strike.

NATIONAL LEGISLATION

The continued fight over the ratifica-
ton of the treaty of Versailles, with
the League of Nations covenant, re-
suIting in rejection of the treaty for
the second time, occupied the atten-
ton of the United States senate during
the early months of 1920 and monop-
olized the attention Of the public, so
FAR as congressional action was con-
cerned. The Cummins-Esch bill, un-
der which the railroads of the country
operated after their return to private
control, and the army reorganization
Dill were the principal pieces of Iegis-
lation enacted before the first regular
session of the Sixty-sixth congress
ended June 5.
On January TO- the house, by a vote
of 32S to 6, for the second time re-
fused to seat Victor Berger, Socialist,
who had been reelected to congress
from Milwaukee district after he
had been once barred by the house
because of his alleged disloyalty dur
ing the war
The Water Power Development bill,
which had long been pending in con-
gress, was passed by the senate Janu-
airy 10. A similar bill had been adopt
ed by the house in July 1918.
Another long congressional fight.
for the adoption of the Oil Land Leas-
Ing bill, was ended when the confer
ence report was adopted by the house
on February 10 and the senate two
days later.
The senate then turned it's attention
to the peace treaty. The original
Lodge reservations were again adopt
ed, with some amendments. The
treaty, with the reservations, came to
a vote on March 10, and fer the second
time failed 10 secure the requisite two
thirds majority, the vote being 40 TO
80. The following day the rejected
treaty was sent back to the President
With no prospect of the early adCp-
ton of the treaty, resolutions declar-
ing the war at an end were introduced
in both the house and the senate, Both
houses adopted the Knox senate res
olution. President Wilson vetoed this
resolution, however, on May q.
A few days earlier, on May "a. Pres
ident Wilson asked the senate for au-
thority to accept the mandate for
Armenia that had been offered by the
supreme council. On June / the SEN
ate respectfully declined" to give the
President the authority requested.
On June 3, the house voted, 343 to
3, the repeal of all war laws EXCEPT the
Lever act and the enemy trading act
the measure already having passed the
senate, but President Wilson withheld
his signature from the act and it died.
with several other important meas
ures, with the adjournment of CON
gress. On the day before adjourn
ment, President Wilson vetoed the
budget bill which had been passed by
both houses.
Congress recOnvened on December 6
for the short session., President viii
son in his message, which was read
the following day., recommended that
the Philippines be given their indie
pendence.

Failure Of Senate to Ratify Peace

Election Holds Interest
RY poNALp 6. eioes.

The world throughout the year 1920
was passing through the troublesome
period of readjustment and reaction
that began with the close of the World
war OF all the great powers that had
been involved in the conflict, the Unit
ed States alone remained technically
in state Of war with Germany
through the failure of the senate to
ratify the peace treaty. For all prac-
tical purposes, however, the United
States was at peace and conditions in
this country were more nearly normal
than in most of the nations of Europe
which had accepted the settlements
agreed upon by the peace conference
at Paris.
Although the great war had ended,
the world was not at peace in 1920.
Territorial disputes and jealousies
growing out of the war resulted in a
large number of minor conflicts.
The Irish problem remained un-
solved and the situation in the Elmer
aid Isle grew more serious as the year
progressed. In the United States, de
spite minor radical activities and the
uncertainties accompanying the read
Justment of business and industrial
conditions, there was continued pros
perity and optimism
