U. 5. CHAMBER IS STRONGLY OPPOSED
 TO WAR BONUSES
Sends Senators Letter Denouncing Plan as Unwarranted
 Expense.

Another artillery battery has been un- loosed against the World War Veteran and his cash bonus by the chamber of commerce of the United States, which has sent to all members of the United States Senate a letter decrying the ex- penditure of such a large sum of money as would be necessary to pay the bonus along suggested lines.
 The letter reads as follows:
 Because of legislation under discus S1On III the Senate on behalf of the un- injured veterans of the world war, the Chamber of Commerce of the United States desires to emphasize its policy regarding soldier legislation in the fol- lowing partiCulars:-
 Il. Legislation should first be passed for prompt and adequate relief for in Jured veterans.
 2. Provisions for uninjured veter- ans should not be considered until pro- vision has been made for our injured soldiers
 This attitude of the nation chamber was determined at our annual meeting, by vote of delegates from our member ship, which comprises over fourteen hundred commercial and trade organi- cations.
 After adequate legislation for the care of injured veterans has been en- acted 1t is our belief that the provisions should have constructive purpose and should not include the cash bonus or the equivalent certificate plan The provision of s 5O6, with respect to veterans rights as to lands are not sufficient for constructive purpose.
 Adequate provision to assure the accomplishment of constructive purposes will, i'll themselves, require large out lays of public funds. Expeditures for these purposes will entail a heavy bur den.
 Added provisions for a cash bonus or the certificate plan will greatly in crease this burden. iThe minimum estimate of the cost under the bill be- fore the Senate (S. 50o) exceeds the to- tai annual appropriations made for the cost of government for the fiscal years 1915 and 1916. "The maximum estimates of the cost of this bill exceed the total annual ap- propriations for running the govern rhent for the six years from 1912 tC 1917 inclusive.
 This legislation IS bought before the Senate at a time when the expenses o1 the federal goverrmnt are still running very high. In the eleven months ending with May, 1921, they have exceeded by | $2,7OO,OO0,O00 the total appropriation for the fiscal year 19l4-an average be l fore the war year.
 This excess of $2,7OOOOO,OOO l more than the total annual appropriation made for running the government 10
 the four years from 1913 to 1916. l :'The needs of the injured veterans
 however, have, in our opinion, first clain
 upon Congress and the nation"

WEST AVON CHICKENS
 SWALLOW FIREWORKS;
 PRESTO! THEY'RE GONE

West Avon, July 15.-There was a poultry tragedy on Lovely street that was an aftermath of the Fourth of July celebration. In short these hens went in for fireworks not wisely but too well. Among this years novelties in fireworks were little circular discs that looked like tar with fed specks, and known as 'son-of-a-guns." You stepped on them and immediately there ensued delightful miniature ex- plosions accompanied by a series of sparks and crackles. To get an espe- cially good effect you smashed them between two stones, Young Marcel lus Bennison had share of them to help celebrate the day but unfortun- ately his flock of half grown chickens thriftily swallowed the particles from the "son- guns" and within a short time found out that fireworks are not to be taken internally. MT. Bennison performed a post mortem on the hens and found the crops smoking when cut open, showing that the principle

RETIRING OF VARD0N

Has Been Playing Golf for Over
 Thirty-Four Years.
Followers of Scottish Game Find Occasion to Complain at Removal of Master StyIist"-Estab-

The news from the other side that Harry Vardon, known throughout the golf world as the master stylist," has definitely decided to retire from tournament play, has caused deep re- gret. VardOn is past fifty years Of age. He has been playing in competl- tive golf since he, was sixteen years old. Over a span of 34 years this master of the game has earned the right to dOff the spangles. Yet all who have ever witnessed the Briton in action will silently complain. There was ever in the style and manner Of the popular Englishman an elusive something that reached to the heart of the average golfer and carved there a spot especially for Harry VardOn.
 The easy, graceful form of Vardon. in his shots, the almost wistful eX- pression of Vardon will ever remain pleasant memories. It was fervently hoped that Vardon would hang on for a few seasons. But the man who made such a deep and lasting impression has followed the advice of his physi- clans and will confine himself to one day events and to teaching.
 Since 1896, when he won his first championship, Vardon has established an enviable record. He has won the British Open, the golf classic of Eu- rope, six times. His last victory in this event was in 1914.

NEW THINGS IN NEEDLEWORK
Tapestry Embroidery Affords Winsone Decorations Similar to Those of
 Grandmothers Day.

Tapestry embroidery, the very same work our grandmothers did as girls. is one of the newest things in needle work. It Is worked on the soft Aida canvas or on the coarse weave con- gress canvas, and is done with silk or wool yarn and a tapestry needle.
 If the work is to be done in cross stitch work the Aida canvas is the better. For other tapestry stitches the congress is preferred.
 Any filet lace pattern may be done in tapestry as we'll as the many pat terms designed for the work itself. Cross stitch is really the simplest method and the artistic effect depends only on having the "top" threads of the little \ which fills every square mesh of the canvas run in the same direc- ton.
 Chairs may be upholstered with tapestry pieces, scarfs and pillows. runners and panels, and even dress trimming may be made on the tap- estry nets.

 "When man takes liquor on the pre- scription of his physician said Senator Knox, ''he should hae assurance that 1t is not moonshine or this synthetic stuff gotten up by the boOtleggers."
 The Pennsylvania senator said he planned to propose an amendment which would make sure that the sick obtain pure liquor.
