Skating Champions
Now Neck-and-Neck
For National Title

LAKE PLACID, n. Y. Feb. H.
William Steinmetz. Chicago, whirl-
wind skater. won the title of amateur
skating ace of America today. His
total for the three days meeting of
the Lake Placid Diamond trophy
championship events was 100 points.
Charles Jewraw. of Lake Placid, fin
ished in second place with 1l5. He
won both of today's events.
There was much argument tonight
over the rating of the skaters on the
basis of points. When Jewtraw fin
ished so close to Steinmetz. the finish
of the one mile race the first day of
the meet was brought up for consider
alton. In that event, Jewtraw and
Roy McWhirter. of Chicago. were
tied for third place and the 10 points
for the position were divided between
them. No comment was made at the
time. but today. when Jewtraw drew
up so close to .Steinmetz, the matter
was placed before the skating author
tiles. If the original action of the Of
ficials in splitting the points is not
upheld, Jewtraw will skate the 220-
yard, the three-quarter mile and the
three-mile events to decide the issue.
If this contest should be staged and
Jewtraw should win, he would tie
'Steinmetz for the title.
The authorities hold that the ques-
tion is based on a technicality, and
while no definite statement was forth
coming, it was generally believed that
there would be no further skating for
the honors OF the meet Jewtraw'S
performance today was the feature of
the meet He entered the third days
events with a chance to win the title
if he take first place in both. and
Steinmetz was not placed in either.

these conditions, at least our pocketbooks No
one would even be aware of the insignificant addi-
tion to his tax bill account of an appropriation
by the state to take advantage Of this federal act
But that small expenditure will really cut down
taxes. The mother who dies because she has not
properly cared for herself leaves six children for
the county poor fund to take of, for the
father not pay for housekeeper. And maybe
there isn't father living anyway. The county was
burying in paupers graves at public expense, rs

I previously mentioned.
But it hurts me to argue in dollars and cents
when human life is at stake. It was the same
when public schools were proposed. Why educate
children at public expense? Why "force" educa-
tion on anybody? And think of all the ECONOMY"
versus "high-tax" arguments which were made
when public schools were proposed! Why tax
bachelors and childless families to educate children
Of ignorant, foreign, good-for-nothing parents?"

What Do You Saw?

We have few letters from women readers who
say they believe the women's page is "mistake."
Il read all the Leader" one woman wrote "All
Of it is for women we'll as for men. If you have
articles by women, interesting letters from women,
or reports of what women's organizations or prom-
nent women leaders doing, why not print them
among other articles in the Leader, for men and
women alike to read? Having a special page
for women seems to imply that the rest of the
paper is not for us, that the womens page con-
tains nothing Of interest to men, when matter
of fact it does"
"Arent we all peope-just foks-whether male
or fen1ale?" another wrote. "Why make sex dis
tnctions promote the idea that women should
think differently than men. Since your paper, in
cluding the women's page, deals almost entirely
with politics and economics, equally interesting to
all without regard to sex, there is less reason for
having women's page. It might be different if
you just printed household hints and advice to the
lovelorn' on the womens page, But your womens
page is not devoted to the material that is usually
found on women's pages"
What do you think of "the page"? Shall we
abolish it OF continue it? Let us know. We will
be guided by you.
If majority of you think it worth while we will
continue it. THE EDITOR.

FIREPLACES

It is conceded that the fireplace is
the most healthful means of heating a
home. And the most cheerful, too.
With fireplace bad air is constantly
exhausted up the chimney. In it's
place, pure air is drawn into the
rooms around the windows and doors.
But freplaces as ordinarily con-
structed would not heat houses in cold
climates. The rooms can not be heat
ed in such localities if the warm air
constantly goes up the chimney, and
is being constantly replaced with cold
from outside. Another complaint is
that they eat up too much fuel.
Lately, however, experts have been
experimenting with fireplaces intend
ed to keep the good and eliminate the
bad of this mode of heating. The re-
suits are printed in Farmers Bulletin
No. 1890 Of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, Washington,
D. G. If you are going to build new
home, or are planning on altering your
present dwelling, send for this bulle-
tin. It will interest you. It is possi-
BILE to build a fireplace which takes cold
air from outside, heats it and delivers
it through aregister in the room.

be-if it never comes to pass" and it seems to me
that is the political conviction prevalent in many
localities.
By the time was old enough to form many ideas

message of ''being led by the spirits," and to my
mind they are typical of the people who know the
truth politically, for read when He, the spirit
of truth, is come, He will guide you into ALL,

could get the TRUTH to the people of the United
States for short time victory would be won.
My sphere of action is very limited, as is the case
with most farm who Lave little children,
but find can dispose of great deal of Nonpar-
tisan literature with very little extra effort and
know of no surer way to spread the TRUTH than
to get some one to invest from rs cents to 81 in

probably pass it on.

LAW WILL SAVE
TAXES in THE END

Please do not try to pass these con-
ditions by saying: "Oh yes, ignorant
people - foreigners - good-for-noth-
ing" Yes, ignorant, if you like, but
because large families, over-work and
insufficient family revenue have pre-
vented them having the advantage
which Mrs. Wood perhaps enjoys. I
remember going into a packing-ho

nurse from a city health department.
How greedily these ignorant foreign

offered them in the care of their
babies! That health department cut
down the infant death rate in that
locality over half within year.
