Max NJ Neumann, chairman of the

a definite plan ftH- combating I'M
American teachings in home life.
which have often offset patriotic in.

We have found in Washington that
Americanism work done In schools
with tile children oftentimes has been
counteracbed by American teach
ings in the home A plan has been
worked out for use in the state where
by we are urging that examinations
be made in Americanism in every
grade OF the schools. These examlna-
tions would be kept and taken yearly.
and comparisons made as TO advance
ment. In the event these records do
not show the proper progress. the
American Legion would take UP the
matter at Its source in the home to
remedy It. The examinations would
not be limited to the foreign-born
children, or those born of foreign
parentage"
Legion men in Washington face
many problems of Americanlzation, OF
which the Japanese question and anti
alien land ownership are Of greatest
concern. according to Mr.. .,eumann.

CUTS COST OF HOME LIGHTS
Electric Illumination Expense is Re
dueed Owing TO Invention Of New
Lamps.

Recent reductions in the prices
charged the public for incandesceut
electric lamps have disclosed that an
electrically lighted home can now OBJ
tain thousand candle hours Of a..
Elimination for pretty close to 10 cents.
II Is also brought out that In the
thirty years from 1890 to 1920 the
cost Of lighting the average home ny
electricity dropped from 50 cents per
thousand candle hours to II cents.
This was due in large measure 10 a
succession OF inventions and dlscov-
cries. the outcome Of patient labora-
tory research. each OF which contrib
uted to an increase In the efficiency
of the incandeScent lamp and thereby
a reduction in the cost of Illumination
obtained.
There has not been a year In the
span Of three decades mentioned that
costs did not drop noticeably, except
since 1916 During the last seven
years, the reduction has been but a
fraction Of cent each year. Mean
while the quality Of light furnished
has Increased almost beyond compar-
lson, as those who recall the Old-fnsh-
Toned carbon tilament lamps, in which
bamboo was used at first, win appre.
ciate.
Three different styles Of lamps were
popular during this thirty-yea period.
The old style of sixteen candlepower
carbon lamp was the most In favor
from 1890 to 1908 In that year the
Gem lamp was introduced. and the 80
watt type of that kind OF lamp was
the most used. Then the Mazda tung
stem lamps arrived. These were the
result Of Or. w. u. Coolidge's dlScov
cry In the research laboratory OF the
General Electric company, Of n method
Of drawing tungsten into flexible wire,
SO that tt could be used for lamp nin-
ments in vacuum bulbs. From 1908
TO the present time the 1O-watt MAJ
da lamp has been the most popular for
general household lighting
