budget law like every other law, is not in itself
a miracle-which is fact with respect to stat
utes not always understood. The law had to be
enforced to be made, by human energy, to work.
That is where the director of the budget has
come in. Mr.. Dawes realized that not the fiscal
policy of the government alone had to be budget
lied, but the mind, habit and personnel of the
government as WELL This is the real secret of
the budgets success. He has organized business
classes in the departments and is himself their
teacher He corrects their examination papers
and posts the errors on the blackboard Where
he finds department waste he exposes it to the
whole. class and to the country, and that par
ticular waste is not likely to happen again
fThey talk about government of laws and
not of men being the correct theory, and prob
ably it is. But whether laws work or not
whether they bring about the results expected
of them, or fail--must depend upon in the
end. The administration must be conceded to
have recognized this fact, and has not been con-
tent with passing laws merely, but has provided
the human element necessary to make laws
march. Mr.. Dawes is an example of the kind of
human motive power the administration has ap~
piled. Without him, or man like him, the
budget would have been as a baby tossed to the
wolves. The departments would have made one
mouthful of it. Instead, the budget if pro-
tected and developed for few years by the
Dawes methods, may some time make one
mouthful of departmental waste. Meanwhile it
is doing some very effective nibbng"

Children Must Have
Milk adults Ought To

Milk is an absolute necessity for
growing children.
Each child should have a quart a
day. 1t is not the only food they
should have, of course. But milk bal
ances the ration, supplying elements
that other foods entirely lack or con-
tain in insufficient quantities.
Milk is valuable for grown-ups, too,
especially for sick people. The army
hospitals have found that the sick
and wounded recovered faster when
fed plenty of milk A pint of milk
day is sufficient for a grown person.
But there are many things you
ought to know about the milk you
drink which are impossible to dis
cover by looking at, tasting or smell
ling it. This knowledge is essential
to your health and we'll being, and
that of your family. You can secure

tive booklet on milk written by DR..

How the Budget is Made to Work

IF the methods by which Charles G. Dawes,
director of the budget, brings home to govern
ment officials the lessons of economy are some
what spectacular, they are perhaps valuable
contrast, for government spending has been
quite the opposite of spectacular" says the Kan
sas City Star. 'It has been quiet, hidden and as
nearly secret as circumstances would allow.
'Mr. Dawes has correctly gagged the effect
of this publicity, both upon the country and upon
government departments. These departments
had to feel, and naturally, that it was their
business to spend, and spending, as everybody
knows, is habit that grows. They had only to
ask for money to receive it; they received it to
spend and not to save-it was money loose in the
pocket. 1t went and went fast, and when it was
gone they asked for more, and received it. That
was the way the government was run before the
budget system was put in. 1t was system sane
toned by long use and tradition, and it was no.

Worlds Fairs In 1922.

The old-style worlds fair was an
extravagant, fiimsy fairyland that
housed, for the most part, objects of
art and education exhibits, and disap-
peared as if wrecked by an earth
quake. More than so worlds fairs
are scheduled for Europe this year, but
their main object will be the extension
of commerce rather than the proud ex-
hibition of local and national treas
ures. Europe now regards such ex-
positions as valuable agents for pro-
noting trade; in this attitude 1t re-
turns in principle to the fairs of the
Middle ages, says the Scientific Amer
lean. The sample fair held at Prague
last year, though but minor example
brought together $500 exhibitors. Elk
hibition trains are supplementing the
advertising value of the fairs; wit
ness the completely-equipped train
brought from France last fall that
made an extensive tour Of Canada.

Rats Extsrmlnats Themselves.

the rats responsible for the destruc-
ton of $140,000,O00 worth of food an
nually, to be great mistake. The
male rat, the bold rover, is the one
caught by poison, and the death of
males only improves living conditions
for the survivors. Four male and six
female rats will, under favorable con-
ditions, increase to large proportions
in a period of two years. Doctor
Jennison's suggestion is to upset the
numerical proportions between the
sexes and leave the males to destroy
their own kind; he would forbid the
poisoning of rats, but would take
them alive in traps, kill the females,
and turn the males loose. He claims
to have followed this method for
years with success.-Scientific Amer

Snowy Dress illegal in oIden DAYS.

Lace and embroideries were pro-
hibited by order of the general court
of Massachusetts In 1884. Many peo-
pie were tried and punished for wear

brought up at one time in court for
their wicked apparel" Not only did
the law makers and courts try to stop
the increase of snowy clothing, but
also the ministers took up the refrain
and preached against the display of
finery.

period, says: after a while the whole
church interfered. In 1879, the church
