The Worlds Greatest Baking Powder
HAD STUDIED HIS SUBJECT
Little Bobbys Essay Showed He Knew
Practically All There Was to
Know About Doors.

Little Bobby Jones was told to write
an essay on door" and the effort
which he sent in was as follows:
Most houses have all the doors
that they need, and no house is com
plete without at least one The two
main differences between a door and
gate is: first, their opposite loca-
ton; and, second, that people have
much less respect for gate, and
would rather kick 1t than knock on it,
'But gate is more useful than a
door because it does everything that
door can do, and, besides that, it
can be climbed over, and often is.
"The door handle is a small but i'm.
portant part of the door which peo-
pie never appreciate until it comes
off. Most people never notice the door
handle unless 1t Is brought to their
notice on account Of having lam
spread all over it,
"DoOrs are great things to give peo-
pie privacy and would give them stlll
more II It wasn't for the keyholes." ~

HOW BOOKS ARE DiSINFECTED
Method Employed In France is Said ia
Be the Most Successful Yet
Devised

The danger Of contagon from books
that have been in the hands Of per
sons suffering from various diseases
has led to the invention Of methods Of
disinfcctiug, Of which none appears TO
be more effective than that devised
by a member Of the municipal council
Of Paris.
This process consists Of two fea.
lures. In the first place, the books
are placed in a "beater," where
strong current of air opens every leaf,
and an aspirator sucks out the dust
and deposits 1t In aseptic water. Then
they are suspended In Il djsinfector,
the covers being bent back and held
by clips, so that the leaves are widely
opened, and placed over a heater,
which for a long time subjects them
to a temperature Of 167 degrees Fab.

Board Bill Too Heavy,
Prisoner Is Released

Arthur States of Lima, O., lit
orally ate his way out Of prison,
where he was serving a term be-
cause of his inability to pay
fine Of $1,000 on a liquor charge.
He served only a few weeks
when the county commissioners
began figuring out results Of
the incarceration of States at
a fixed amount a day to apply
on his fine.
The board ordered him par
oiled with the understanding
that he pay 81 a month on the
fine. Eleven years will be re-
CURED to liquidate it. His board
had already cost the county
500. Commissioners figured that
it would cost $1,249.5O to collect
the fine for the state had he re-
manned in Jail.

Real Hobo Is
Friend of Work

ers will tackle a hobo will only bum
when he is down and out and can't
work out a meal"
Denver Dutchy said many other
things. Subsequent investigation finds
that he is correct. The hobo is a
worker.
Conditions on the road are pitiful
In parts of the country where the I'M
employment situation is not critical
the life is not so hard, but in portions
where it is, as in the entire Southwest,
many hobos are leading a life that is
really worse than that of a hunted
animal. Railroad detectives and spe-
cial agents chase them off trains and
out of railroad yards and the local
police order them out Of towns or
arrest them for vagrancy.
Drastic Laws Against Them.
Many states, especially Texas, have
drastic laws under which a man must
serve from one to eleven months on
road chain gangs if found guilty of
yagrancy This punishment has made
many men bitter against the police
and citizens of many cities, and agita-
tors and agents of several radical or
CARNATIONS are using this fact as an
al gument toward enIlsting hobos to
their various causes. In the North
vest posted at nearly every impUr-
tant freight division point, are repre-
sentatiyes of the l. w. w. who solicit
and often succeed in enrolling hobos
for red cards" on the strength of this
argument alone They hold the fed
eral administration responsible in a
large measure for national unemploy-
ment.
Here's a land of plenty" they say
you, a human being must wander
through it starving, cold and tired
with noIplace to lay your head. An
alley cat or stray dog is better off
than you are"
Few people realize what segrega-
ton of these two or three million idle
men would mean If there We're not
these hoboS sWarming in hOrdes over
the railroads in every section of the
Union, the unemployed permanent resi-
dents of most of the cities and towns
would have less chance of getting po-
sitions. The city man should be thank
full that there are hobos in times when
work is plentiful.
Outlook Bad for 1922.
The outlook for 1922 is unfavorable,
especially for the winter. With so
many mines and mills shut down, and
with the harvest season and con
struction jobs nearly over, it will not
be long before several hundred thou
sand hObos will again have to hit the
road" Most old-timers predict win
ter that will be worse than last year,
one that brought much suffering
Jails will have to be thrown open
and winter quarters provided rs we'll
as bread lines formed
Hobos everywhere advise youngsters
not to try to beat their way anywhere
