The passage by the United Confed

The passage by the United Confed-
crates the other day of the resolution
to the effect that Abraham Lincoln
was the instigator of the war between
the states, was unfort unate and re-
grettable because it is not true. Abra-
ham Lincoln was opposed TO slavery
and SecessionS but he made it clear
that if there could be an agreement on
union, he wGdld gladly leave the slav-
cry question to settle itself. and with
out war. 1t is n matter of undisputcd
history that Robert T.. Lee was n
Union man; but knowing as he did
that his state had constitutional
right to secedc, he rightly placed his,
at that time, duty to his state over his
sentimental allegiance to the Union. III
was the slavery question that brought
on the war: but that war would not
have occurred under Nj. Lincoln eX-
ccpt for secession. We cannot help but
feel that that unfortun ate resolution
the other day was slipped through by
Irresponsible extremists Will" the lev
cler headed conservatives were enSag-
cd with more sensible business, and it
was without their approval. In repu-
dating the foolish statement General
Julian S. Carr did only what was to
have been expected Of him. and we are
glad he did it. The South has no apol-
OgieS cOr the Civil waI' and no regrets
either, for that mattcI:. Ii did its duty
TO the utmost and b elped to make Il
much better Union than there would
have been had there. been no war.

BUREAU OF ENGRAVING
SLASHES ITS EXPENSES AND
CUTS ITS FORCE oNE-FIFTH

Washington.-The annual report Of
the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing for the fiscal year ending June 80,
I 1922. discloses the fact that under the
Republican administration there have
been great economies effected in the
conduct of this bureau, as we'll as an
increase in its efficiency.
The bureau expended $10.s12.756 as
against an expenditure of $1S.965, ,2S3
the previous year, or 22eo. 1t is Of in
terest to note that the bureau did not
expend all that was appropriated by
Congress It returned to the public
treasury an unexpended balance Of
81, ,05S.447.' This was probably the
first time in the history of the bureau
that money appropriated for its use
was unexpended at the end Of the
year and turned back to the treasury.
This is in accord with all records
made by practically all the depart
ments Of the governments Of the gov
'ernment under the Harding admins
tration.
During the year the bureau reduced
the number of its employees from $3.50
to 5,SS3. a reduction OF 1867 or 1920.
Notwithstanding it operated at re-
duction of 22eo in expenses and 1870,
in personnel. the product of the bu'
reau for the year was within per
cent Of that Of the previous year.

CLUB BOYS AND GIRLS TAKE
PART IN HEALTH CONTEST

Baby contests have been popular
for long time, but it remainded for
boys and girls club workers of Iowa
to institute an adolescent health con-
test. Physicians maintain that atten-
tion to health is often neglected dur
ing the adolescent period, although
more important than in infancy when
instructive precautions are almost al
ways taken. The idea of having such
a contest occurred to the State club
leader according to the report receiv.
ed by the United States Department
of Agriculture when she overheard
the remark of a well known woman
physician at baby beef parade. The
champion animal was led out by such
an understood little boy that the doc
tor exclaimed, "Club work certainly
teaches these boys and girls how to
Judge a fine animal, but it is losing
big opportunity if it does not teach
them anything about developing their
own bodies properly"
/ Each boys and girls club in the
State was asked to choose a represen-
tative. thought to score highest IN
physical condition, to compete in a
health contest at the recent Iowa
State fair. Among the A representa-
tives so chosen were many pretty
girls and husky looking boys who did
not prove to be in perfect physical
condition when judged by strict
health standards and specialists. The
lcompetition was close. however, the
winning girl scoring 9s.5 per cent and

While the slight losses of fruit

to car shortage, and the losses actu-
