TOY HOME WOULD PLEASE
MOST EXACTZNC DOLL-WZFE
Model House. Fitted From Cellar Ahic, Exhibition fo'
Won,ens Clubs

A doll house that would make the
heart Of any little girl take an extra
big beat is on exhibition at the School
of Industrial Art today. 1t is the
work of Miss Florence Cannon and is
a miniature of a home in perfect taste.
It has everything in it--from attic
to basement--and could house the most
fastidious and aristocratic doll in the
land. 1t has electric lights. a grand
fathers clock, oriental rugs, baby
grand piano--all luxury that the most
spoiled baby doll couId desire.
On the dining room table is bowl
of fruit--made Of clay. Tiny yellow
bananas and rosy apples are in it. On
the buffet is the last word in candles
there are portieres of velvet and doilies
of lace. One of the bed rooms has the
new painted furniture and the living
room suite is upholstered in material
that costs 81 yard.
And the most remarkable feature Of
it all is the fact that the furniture can
not be broken. A man 200 pounds has
stood on n little chair that looks too
fragile and delicate to bear the weight
Of dainty doll-and the chair did not
break. 1t can be thrown around any
way and will not crack--thc dolls can

NATIONAL LEGISLATIOt.

Not a great deal of legislation was passed by the Republican congress during the last two months of Presi- dent Wilson's administration. The President vetoed the bill to revive the War Finance corporation on January 2, and congress promptly repassed it.. On January 12, $7,1OO,0OO was appro- priated for enforcement of prohibition. The house decided on January 10, that its membership should not be in- creased. After much debate congress 175O00 men. MT. Wilson vetoed the measure, but 1t was passed over his veto On February 26 the President signed the Winslow bill, making avail able to the railroads $370,00O,000 from the government guarantee fund.
 President Harding called congress in extra session on April Il and nearly all the rest of the year 1t was busy with the task of redeeming the pledges of the Republican party, with what success must be left to individual judgment Among the first bills passed were emergency tariff and immigra- ton acts; a new army bill cutting the army down to 150,OOO; and the budget bill. On April 80 the senate adopted a resolution declaring the war with Germany and Austria at an end; on June IS the house adopted a resolu- tion of similar purport, and the meas ure was finally passed on July l and signed the next day by President Harding. Repeated efforts to pass a soldiers bonus bill came to naught, but a soldiers relief bureau was ere ated on August and Col. c. R. Forbes was made It's director. The house passed both a tax revision bill and a tariff bill, but the senate did not get around to the latter. The tax meas ure was enacted into law on Eovem- Der 21.
 Among other important measures passed were a bill to exempt American coastwise shipping from payment of Panama canal tolls; a bill for govern ment regulation of the packing indus try; the $48,5OO,0OO shipping board deficiency bill; the billion-dollar farm exports credit bill and various meas ures relating to enforcement of the prohibition amendment, including one fOrbidding the manufacture and sale of beer as medicine.
 The extra session came to an end on November g, and on December 5 congress met for the regular session.
