OUT FOR DEMOS
State Taxpayers League in Red
Hot Recommendation.
Secretary KessIer Says They
Will Work for Less.

The state taxpayers league has
\ Seemingly made a sudden recovery
Eom n state of coma and it out rel
hot and full of steam for the Demo-
crat state ticket. In a statement to-
Gay J. NJ. Kessler of Topeka, secre-
tary of the league. not only recon-
mended the Democrats as the most
likely candidates for public economy
but gave the assuring news that they
were willing to work for less money
than the Republicans.
Kessler's proposal is to be sent to
the rural districts, where there is
seemingly a strong demand for less
pay for the public job holder and for
longer hours of service. The Kessler
statement is likely to arouse some en-
barrassing situations, according TO
men who view political activities with
more or less care and consideration.
VIII Work for Less
During the present campaign or
ganized labor has seemingly been
wrapped up and tied for delivery to
the Democrats on election day. The
Bourbon loyalty to the state fedora
ton of labor forces and hostility to
the industrial court gave them the
union card strength rather solidly.
Now the tax league seems to have
disturbed things with the announce
ment that the Democrat candidates
are willing to enter into a so-called
scab agreement with the legislature
ana WOfk IOf less pay. AeSSler 3
atement is to the effect that
sounding of the Democrats indicates
they will accept a 20 per cent salary
cut, work eight hours a day and use a
minimum number of assistants and
apprentices.
The Kessler statement is substan-
TALLY flat Democrat endorsement. 1t
says:
The organization sent questiennaires to
all candidates of both parties for state
and Legislative offices.
Returns show that many Republican
candidates, including governor. have failed
to commit themselves by answering the
questions.
In regard to inquiries from Shawnee
county only one Republican who was
nominated has answered the questions.
Most of the Democratic candidates have
answered indicating, first, they are willing
to accept 20 per cent reduction In salary
should the next legislature pass a new fee
and salary bill.
Second, that they will work eight hours
per cay, and
Third, they agree to use no more help
in the offices than is actually needed.
Voters in other counties desiring In
formation as TO the stand of candidates
on the tax question are referred to the
local taxpayers organization.

O0er Eating Takes
Place of Booze
as Health Menace

Chicago. Oct 23.-The girth of the
average American man is gaining due
to the greater amount of food and
candy he consumes in the absence OF
alcoholic beverages, according to con-
illusions drawn from survey OF
health in the United States. made
public today by one of the big life IN
surance companies.
Men who used to treat guests,
friends and customers at bars, now
entertain them at meals, buying food,
. pastries and sweets and other items
sthat produce obesity" said a state
AVuent. 1.-The result is that while pro-
nibition has been beneficial in THRIFT.
home-building and peacefulness, II
materially has helped fat to become
an enemy to human longevity.
Because the heart is directly ar
fected by fat, the survey shows an IN
creasing mortality from disease OF TINS
organ. Except in the rarest instances,
persons who live to ripe old ages are
thin. Fat usually taken as proof or
good health is in reality sign or
short life.
Exercise too often is taken too
violently, or merely in increased APP
petities and enlarged consumption OF
food, offsetting the good results OF
athletics. Exercise to hold down
obesity should be regular. not too
strenuously and methodically pursued.
The one way of stopping an in
crease in weight is to eat smaller
amounts of food. Always leave the
table hungry is a good MOTTO

JAMES J. sTARROw, fuel administra-
tor of Massachusetts,, says, Don t. burn
j a pound of coal in October. Cook
and heat water for your household with

1t will perhaps keep you out of the coal
line next winter. Cooking by kerosene
is cheaper than coal. Kerosene can be

This statement is particularly true through
out the Middle Western states served by
the Standard Oil Company (Indiana),
whose distribution service is 1907 COM
whether on distant farm, in small town,
or in big city.
Imagination and foresight were required
to anticipate the demand for petroleum
products which exists today. Permanency
in organization, efficient management and
close attention to the minutest detail has
resulted in establishing within this Com
pany spirit of service which is expressed
in the far-Aung system of distribution and
delivery which makes every user of petro-
States feel certain that his needs will be
instantly supplied.
The Standard Oil Company Qndiana)
distributing system represents an invest
ment of over S45, 1000, 900. It includes Is
main stations where complete stocks of
products are kept on hand, 1878 bulk
stations, 1905 service stations and 1857
tank wagons. 1t has grown to meet the
needs of the present and to anticipate the
needs of the future. It is highly flexible
and capable at all times of meeting emer-
gencies, such as coal shortage, in any
section of the territory served. This service
is available at every home.
To meet the needs of the public it serves
is the ideal which the Standard Oil Com
pany Qndiana) has before it at all times.
It is alert to foresee possible need for its
products, and when the demand comes it
is prepared to supply it; for example, the
possible coal shortage has resulted in an
unusual demand for burning oil for use
in home-heating plants, and the Com
pany was ready with Stanolind Furnace
Oil, which it had developed for this
particular service.
Stanolind Furnace oil is equal to kerosene
in heating value and sells at a lower price.
This is another benefit accruing to the
public at large, through an efficiently
managed big business.
