EARLY COUNT EXPECTED
IN OHIO ELECTION LAW

Columbus, Ohio, May 4.-After
working since its existence under
an election system which made it
almost impossible to obtain results
of a statewide election until many
days. and often weeks, after an
election had been held, Ohio this
fall will be operating under a law
which its sponsors believe will
make it possible to obtain semi
official totals from every Ohio
county by noon of the day follow
ing an election.
Backed by newspapers which in
the past have spent thousands of
dollars collecting results every
time a statewide election was held,
the State legislature has enacted a
law which gives the secretary of
state power to remove county cleo
ton officials who fail to send him
complete county returns by noon of
the day after election.
The new law will be given it's
first trial at the election next No.
Vember, when three constitutional
amendments and possibly one refer
endum viii be voted upon.

3O-|NCH LEG IS
FOUND TOO
LONG
therefore, Silk Stocking Makers
Will Save a Couple of
Inches.

NEW YORK, May 4.-Probably
it was just as well that no advance
publicity was given the affair. Had
the insurance company let it be
known that measurers were needed
several thousand experts would nave
stormed the building and there is no
way of telling what might have hap
pened. The casualty list would have
been enormous. Business generally
would have suffered, because while
there was no great unemployment
problem at the time and almost
everybody who desired work was
hard at it, nevertheless men would
have quite what they were doing and
gone into the insurance business
while it lasted.
The name of the insurance COM
pany is not revealed. No chances
are being taken. But it so happens
that a number of silk stocking man.
ufacturers prevailed upon the Of
ficials of this insurance company to
permit them or their representatives
to measure the legs of the 5000 girls
employed by the insurance concern.
The measuring, we are assured
took up a month Of honest toll. The
names of the measurers were not
made public either. They did their
work conscientiously. And as they
measured they asked questions. DID
the little darlings like their stockings
long or short? Just why were they
rolling them down at the tops? The
average silk stocking is thirty inches
from heel to hem. Would the little
darlings like them longer, shorter
or just as they are?
Well, the measurerS measured and
measured, and what do you think?
They found that the aversese length
Of leg possessed by the 5000 girls
from her II eel to her hip-was forty
inches. And nearly all of the girls
said that a thirty inch stocking was
too long.
The measurers reported the facts
back to the makers Of silk stockings,
and now a. movement is on to reduce
the length Of women's hosiery from
thirty inches to twenty-eight or
twenty-eight and half. At the next
silk stocking convention this matter
will be discussed thoroughly. And
maybe the opponents Of the reduc'
ton will demand that the measuring
be done all over again. Who can

INVENTOR OF COOKING
WILL BE CHEF IN JAIL

WASHINGTON, Pa. May A.
Jail Warden Ody Abbott casually
mentioned to County Judge Erwin
Cummins that he needed a good
cook in the county Jail. A short
time later Joseph Bonatatti, OF
Charleroi. came before the court
and pleaded guilty to bootIegging.
Can you coOk?" asked Judge
Cummins.
81 invented cooking" replied Bo.
natatti.
'AlI right" responded the Judge,
$500 fine and five months in Jail
as cook. If you won't cook I'll
change that to five months in the
workhouse."
I'm satisfied the prisoner re.
sponded with a smile. I'll cook
six meals day in Jail rather than
go to the works." he admitted pri.
vately afterward.
