WASHINGTON. Oct. 27.--The Sem ate investigation of former Secre- tary of the Interior Falls action in reserve to the Sinclair oil interests iast year stood Saturday night at the threshold of sensational dis etousures affecting all past manage mcnts or the naval reserves.
 Testimony elieited by Senator Walsh democrat, of Montant from reluctant and forgetful witnesses at the hearings during the past week als caused Walsh to swing Joe full s'are of the probe from the Teapot Done deal to all deals within the past three years affecting the other two reserves in California.
 Walsh said today that the vast pools of oil which Congress believed were safely put aside for use of the navy in future years when 1t created the naval reserves were being rapid- ly depleted through development pro- Vlded for in contracts negotiated between Fall, acting for the govern ment and great commercial oil com Nesy.

 Walsh indicated that he would trumpet the word that the naval re- serves are gone to the public, and that Congress would be asked to take up the matter in detail at the next session.
 Assistant Secretary of the Navy Theodore Roosevelt and Assistant Secretary of the Interior Finney were the chlet witnesses at the day session of the committee. Harry F. Sinclair oil magnate and lessee of the Teapot Dome reserve, was pres ent but was not called on to testify. Roosevelt Is Named.
 Outstanding points elicited by Walsh's cross-e examination of Roose- welt and Finney were:
 That Roosevelt in 19161917 was a director of the original Sinclair Con solidated company. and that he owned Sinclair stock at the time Teapot Dome was negotiated with Sinclair.
 That Secretary Fall and Finney negotiated the leases by which tho Honolulu Oil company obtained hold on Reserve No. ?. in direct vio- lation of the law which makes the President sole agent which can authorize such contracts.
 That Roosevelt opposed transfer of administration of the naval oil re- serves from the navy department to the interior department in 1921, but changed his mind after Fall and Denby had decided it was the thing dO

NEW ORLEANS, Oct 27.-The ma jority report of the special Senate deeper waterways committee. which concluded here today a series of hearings on the McCormick bill to provide a nine-foot channel from Chicago to New Orleans, will be favorable, it was understood from members of the party. In addition to approving the measure as a whole the report it was understood, would recommend that the appropriation ot S55,000,000 provided for in the bIll, be increased substantially in order that levces in Illinois might be m- creased in height and means be pro Nlded for disposal of sewerage il that district.

ODD MOMENTS

How do you spend your odd momentsg Do you waste them
or use them as success opportunities? Not your leisure Tor
that should be used for recreation, but just your odd moments,
what do yon do with them? The byproduets of your time-do
you make use of them?
Let me give you a few examples of what some people have
done with odd moments. They may prove stimulating to you.
Elihu Burrit, who mastered eighteen ancient and mod
en languages and twenty-five European dialects, attributed
his first success in self-improvement not to genius, but SIMPLY
to the careful employment of "odd moments while working
at his trade as a blacksmith.
William Cary as he sat at his shoemakers bench, learned
the classics that helped to make him the great pioneer mis-
sionary.
Sir Mathew Hale,s thoughtful and well weighed "Con-
temptations were prepared while travelling as judge on cir
cult.
One day a Yale professor noticed while getting his shoes
shined that the young fellow stopped occasionally and east a
glance at the book on a window sill near by. 1t was an algebra.
The professor happened to occupy the chair In mathematics.
He became interested in the lad and helped him with his work.
Because of his use of odd moments that lad laid the founda-
tons of a thorough course IN mathematics which htfed hlm TO
occupy a position at the head of an electrical establishment
With a salary of $1,000 a year.
What others have done you can do, If you would get the
most out of your vitality, make use OF your odds and ends
of time. Their value is limiHess.

Equal rights In love mean equal
rights in forgetting" says q woman
novelist.
THE time is coming when women
viii be free from glooms, grouches,
martyrdoms, remorse, misgivings,
and the like, and then they viii be
happy" she declares.
That is all right as far as it goes,
but we offer an amendment TO the
resolution, Madame President, to
make it read thus:
If the time Eel ZONES when men
r free from glooms, grouches,
martyrdoms, remerse, misgivings
and the like, then women will be
happy"
All in favor of the motion as
amended, kindly say aye"
With a fine disregard of parlia-
mentary rules, we will now proceed
to discuss the question. For, after
all, m suffers far o from
mans grouches, glooms, etc, than
she does from her own.
Certainly they have a vital bearing
on her happiness II she is married to
a crouch addict.
She is all ready with a steaming
hot dinner, a warm smile of well
come for her lord and master, ac-
cording to all the o-ft-repeated rules.
If she is wise, she takes her cue
from his mood, for IL she has been
reading the papers lately she has
learned that to eliminate war We
must first eliminate its causes.
II she spies a crouch OF a gloom
or the like on the horizon, it is her
wifely duty to refrain from sprightly
wit or cheerfulness and allow him TO
enjoy his crouch in silence. That's
what home is for, according to his
notion. 1t may take the sunshine
Nj of her whole day. but that's a
minor matter. However, she's sup
posed to forget his gloom the minute
| his welbknown sense of humor re-
turns to him.
And yet diplomatic posts remain

CHOOSE RIGHT MATERIALS

Many a woman's beauty is made
or marred by her selection OF colors
and her choice of materials, and this
season with a wealth of fabrics and
a riot of color in fashion, the situa-
tion is likely to be perplexing.
The rule for materials is general:
quality counts, and right here is one
point in particular wherein the
home dressmaker scores For less
than the price of a ready-made gar
ment of indifferent quality she may
have one of the best, and that in it.
self Is worth the experiment.
As for colors. the subject is limit
less and weighty with things the
woman interested in clothes should
know, but space permits only a men
tion of them. Remember. then, that
two shades or two tints of a color
contrast in tone when placed side
by side. For example. IL yeu use
two shades of blue or gray or any
other color together, the lighter one
will appear lighter and the darker
darker than either appears sepa-
rately.
Similarly with glossy materials
and those of dull surface of precisely
the same shade. The satin will APP
pear the brighter If they are placed
together, as the d~ull-surfaced fabric
absorbs the light while the satin re-
fleets it. These two hints may seem
unimportanf, but take them to heart
il you are buying braid or ribbon Ter
suit or dress, OF IL you are trying to
match suede slippers or gloves to a
satin frock or satin slippers to a
crepe de chine.
Figured designs are trying, as also
are combinations of color. Both
have a tendency to detract from
height and add to apparent weight.
One-color effects are easiest to work
with, especially now when there are
so many tints and tones.
Another point to remember, es-

rs is too often of more harm than

bors is too often of more harm than
good.
Hot water is the best remedy for
an attack of collie. Give the baby
hot water in a nursing bottle and
change his position so that the gas
will be belched UP.
Give an enema of warm water to
relieve the gas in the intestines. One
half a soda mint tablet dissolved in
a teaspoon of warm water will re-
lieve the indigestion for the time be-
ing and the baby's hands and feet
should be kept warm by being wrap
ped in comforts, and a hot water bag
ove his abdomen will be most CRATE
full to him.
These are merely measures of re-
lief. The real cure must come
through some change in the diet.
If the collie comes on but once a
day and then usually at some set
time after a certain nursing. it Is
more than likely that it Is not collie
at all but that this particular nurs
ing Is. toe scanty to satisfy the baby.
