But little later, when he was

little on one side and some of

What have we here! Ice cream,
I do believe! I'll take the ice
cream out of the pail before l

"Oh. don't!" begged the bunny.
But the fox, most impolitely took
the cover off the pail, raised the
blickie to his mouth and took a
long drink. And then, dropping
the bucket. the fox gave a howl.

DAWES WAVES THE SHIRTS.

very pretty language this man Dawes uses.
He calls shirt shirt, and SCOTS at army officers
who push out their decorations and get puffed up
when corrected or advised; and larups the hide
off those who are trying through stupidity indif-
ference self-nterest, to obstruct the course Of
national economy.
Take the matter Of the brooms The navy felt
Inundated when asked to sweep with army brooms,
of which there was large surplus, result of the
war Pointing to its honorable record it demanded
the right to purchase its brooms. Take the
matter Of the shirts. The marine corps felt its
prestige was mperilled when threatened with army
shirts out of stock. The director Of the budget
exposes these little domestic tffs magnficently and
by putting his argument into terms of brooms and
shirts has the happy result of giving vivid view
of government business to every citizen.
Mr. Dawes has the idea that one broom is very
like another broom, and that when the government
owns many brooms in idleness any department
needing broom should get one from this common
source and not go out in a spirit of perverted de-
partmental pride and buy personal and individual
broom. The idea is sound The beauty of it is that
is not the only idea Mr.. Dawes has on the subject
of official economics and with that sweet knack
he has for putting things into blunt, homely Ian
guage it looks If the American public is going to
be on the inside of this government spending bust
ness before long
So far the budget system has defiled its critics
not merely by the strength of the Dawes vocabu-
larry, but on its performances. When the baffled
despoier of the public treasury sneers Mr.. Dawes
produces his brooms; when department acts In
dgnant and hurt he the shirts.
There is no gainsayng the fact that the tax
payers beginning to feel great deal of conf
dence that their national business methods are
being improved and II NJ. Dawes cares to add to his
details he may be sure of attentive and appre-
ciative audience from Portland to Portland.

TOO LIGHT ON THE TRIGG
EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
OWNERSHIP CHANGES IN ENGLAND.
(From the Montreal Star. }

AS result of the war the face of Britain Is
changing until it is rapidly becoming a land of
small holders Statistics just published show that
over 3,5000 900 acres in England have been sold
since the armistice. Some of this land has been
transferred from the old arlstocracy to a
class-those who enriched by the war; but
the larger part has passed into the hands of the
cutivators Six dukes have parted with 142,954
acres and thirteen lesser members Of the nobility
have given up than III 900 Yet the
important feature of the change is that upwards
Of a quarter of million passed to the people
The tenants have become landlords.
Nor is it in estates alone that the great change
has taken place. Some of the most famous man
sons have passed-presumably forever-out of the
hands of their hereditary owners In London
alone, Devonshire House, Lansdowne House. Gros
venor House and Apsley House have been sold
The transfer means something more than a change
Of ownership The day of the palatal mansion in
England has passed. There will never be another
Somerset House built in London, although the
London county council may erect larger
structure Burghey and Blenheim will stand in
future as monuments to a vanished state of
ciety, just as do the pyramids and the parthenon
The number OF small holders shows signs Of in
creasing and Britain is becoming vastly different
place to live in. Perhaps it has been robbed of
some Of its picturesqueness and traditional ro-
nance, but the change should to make her
more solid. Tens of thousands today have a stake
in the country which is firm and strongly attached
It is a return to conditions of earlier nation
"ere England's griefs began, when every rood of
land maintained its man." -.
The heart of England will beat less strongly
because few have discarded the frils and furbe-
lows of medieval heraldry. The workers hod-
den gray has distinctive merit

"sAIARTEST THING ON EARTH"

Mary Austen, the writer, in recent magazine
article declares the girl Of the day in America the
smartest thing the world has ever seen, being law
unto herself and compelling the rest Of the world
to take her at her valuation and to let her do
she pleases.
While there many who will not agree with
Mrs. Austen and some will pronounce the modern
girl entirely too smart for her good there will
be to dispute her sef-assurance. Girls of ten
der years aspire to most everything nowadays
In Ohio there is a girl mayor in town and a
girl prohibition agent in the other; while from Kan
sas City, Kans comes word that girl of 23 years
has entered the for the nomination for gov
ernor of her state. The amazing thing about this
candidacy is the speed with which the young
woman works. She was a salesgirl in department
store a year ago. but since then has been featuring
on how to do away with and is the founder OF

TRY 1T ON DAD.

High school boys and girls don't know much
about the news of the day, is the latest discovery
in educational circles. The Institute for Public
Service, which dabbles in matters OF education
seems to be having quite bad spell since the fact
became known that only small percentage of the
high school students could pass an examination in
current events.
And yet the Institute critic finds that when the
boys and girls taught current events, as they
are in certain schools they do creditably in their
examinations. The logical deduction seems to be
that the human mind is capable of tackling about
much at time and the combined of
human knowledge has assumed proportions too big
to be taken in at single gulp the poor high school
youngster has to content himself with learning
part of 1t at time.
To make the test fair, It may be proposed to
take the high school boys most intellectual dad
and set him program like the following: Get to
school at s o'clock in the morning and spend four
to six hours reciting to exacting teachers.
Take an hour for exercise and a little time for
meals and spend the evening translating Latin and
French and solving problems in algebra and COM
months of this sort Of treatment give the old man
stiff examination of current news. If he passes
60 per cent he will be q marvel.
The fact is for years the exactions of the schools
have been increasing year by-year. The curriculum
Of the modern high school is quite the equivalent
Of that given in the college of not so long ago. In
consequence there is period in every students life
when he may be more familiar with the achieve
ments of Caesar than Of Pershing Current events
be taught to young people If 1t can be shown
TO be worth while The question is one of selection
There are limitations upon time II not upon intel
lectual capacity.

If CHINA SHOULD ARM.

Despite the formal acceptance by the Chinese
delegation of the results of the Washington parley
as the best they could get, and probably than
they expected, reports from American residents
familiar with the Chinese people speak Of a sense
of disappointment in China which may have I'M
looked for effects The most noticeable feature
about the Chinese participation at Washington was
the evident pressure of the Chinese popular opinion
against compromising their demands.
The Chinese leaders not blind to their
weakness, caused by the pacific habit of the
of their people and the rivalries OF provincial
leaders But what If, aroused by this great issue
on which the people think alike, China should
decide to initiate Japan? 1t will not do to dismiss
the idea with the recollection of how easily Japan
dealt with China in 1894. What If there arose
new China, provoked by just such diplomatic dick
ering and determined to become force to be reck-
oned with?

ADVERTISING CLIMATE.

Commerce. insisted before the Rotary club yester-
day noon that Albuquerque should advertise its eli
mate He saw in it a means to bring more resi-
dents here, to have them build more houses once
they arrived, and in general to increase the pros
perity Of the community.
Press dispatches last evening carried the news
of billiards. in the northwest They told that a
cold wave was sweeping the middle west They
carried the storm warnings that were issued along
the Atlantic coast
No wonder Albuquerque should advertise its
climate Why not not inform the frozen northeast
that all is warm in New Mexico? Why not tell the
residents along the Atlantic coast that the way to
avoid the storm is to come to Albuquerque?
This city has a sound asset in Its climate.

UNCLE WIGGUIY AND TIE

BY Howard B. CARTS

as the muslrat lady housekeeper
came into the living room from
the kitchen of the hollow stump

she spelled the word out for

for you to go over to Mrs. Twisty-
tails house and get me some sour
milk, as you promised you would"
Nurse Jane held out a little tin
bucket to the bunny.
"SOur milk" exclaimed the
rabbit gentleman. "You mean

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, Feb. 23.-Perslstent
selling due to rains in the south
west made wheat today average
lower in price. The market closed
unsettled at &c to 5s C net de-
cline, with May $1.44 to $1.44B
and July $1.24& to $1.24B. Corn
finished hc to 1Sc to nc up,
oats unchanged to u C higher and
provisions varying from unchanged
figures to 35c advance.
Assertions that a wonderful i'm
provement in the outlook for the
domestic winter crop had been eff
fected by rains in Texas, Oklahoma
and Kansas led to a material set
back in wheat prices here at the
opening, but sentiment among
traders became much divided later
as a result Of talk that ice was
forming over the fields because of
zero temperatures which had fol-
lowed the rain. With quotations
at Liverpool and Buenos Aires
showing comparative strength, an
upturn in prices here ensued. How
ever, the rise brought about in
creased offerings from commission

ward again during most of the re-
mainder of the session.
The fact that Chicago wheat
prices were so high as to encourage
shipments here from Kansas City
was responsible for some of the
late selling. Notice was also taken
of an increase of 1.642,000 bushels
for the week in the worlds avail
able supply total.
New high prices for the season
were reported in the corn market
Fxpectance Of a decided fall in the
amount of corn arriving in Chicago
was largely responsible. Tho oats
market was governed for the most
part by the action of corn. Pro-
visions ruled higher in line with
hog values despite a good deal of
eastern selling which grew out of
closing of spreads between lard and
cotton seed oil.
Closing prices:
Wheat - May, $1.4f; July,
s1.24A.
Corn-May, SIC.
Oats-July. 43Bc.
Pork.-May. $20.35.
Lard-May, SHIP; July, $11.9O.

"some sour milk, il you please"
Uncle Wiggily begged from the
eyes. I told Nurse Jane I'd
let her have a pailful to make a
lady. well, there it is" and
she poured into the pail some
thick, lobbered milk, that fell out
in chunks, for that's the way with
very sour milk.

"And the steam from the tea

milk, and my mouth is so puck
cred up l can't even nibble a
toothpick! That was sour milll!"
"Of course it was!" laughed
Uncle Wiggily as the fox ran
away. II could have told you
that if you had asked me. Now
I'll have to go back and get some
more from Mrs. Twistytail."
Which he did, for the fox had
spilled it all from the pail. How
ever, the pig lady had plenty
more sour milk, and when the
corn cake was done Uncle Wig
gily couldn't taste the sour milk
in it at all. Such are the ways
of cooks.

off so it bumps it's nose, I'll tell
