Club Women Back
Better Homes
Movement

I may be hereSy TO amenu a.
statement which has Biblical
4 authority, but l have always
felt that the saying faith can
move mountains should read
faith-and enthusiasm. At all
events / should say that it was
Mrs. William Brown Meloneys
enthusiasm for cause in which
she has faith which has brought
the ''better homes" movement to
Washington in such successful
fashion.
Ground was broken yesterday in
the backyard of the White
House" for the model small home
a copy of the cottage in which
John Howard Payne lived and
wrote the undying Home, Sweet
Homeland the cornerstone will
be laid on Saturday under the
auspices of the General Federation
of Women's Clubs, which has un-
dertaken to put through this ma
tional application of a movement
which has been successfully
launched in nearly 500 cities.
Mrs. Meloney, the editor of The
Delineator, is the executive secre-
tary of the better homes movement,
which is educational in it's aspects
and designed to remove from the
United States the stigma of hav-
ing the ug1iest small homes in the
world. About as big as the pro-
verbal ''pint of SOAP" she is IA
tremendously dynamic person, and
when she gets behind a movement
lit moves. The Secretary of Com.
merce, Mr.. Hoover, made an adj
dress at the ceremonies yesterday.
Secretary of Labor Davis was also
present, and many other big wigs.
s.
MOREOVER, the Agricultural
AVA Department is cooperating
with the movement in every posi-
BILE way and has designed a labor
saving kitchen" which is to be in
corporated into the model house.
Experiments have been made by a
woman wearing a pedometer and
plans mapped out for kitchen
which will require the smallest
number of steps in the course of
preparing q meal. The depart
ment is also to plant a model
kitchen garden. Trees forty feet
high are to be transplanted and
vines of large growth will be
trained over the doorways, so that
the house will have the look of
having grown into its surround
ings.
The architecht is Don Barbour
IAN acadenician and a man OF
international reputation. He has
devoted years to the study of the
small home and has gone into the
question intensively in many
countries and has done wonders
in combining the gracious lines of
old English cottages with the ,
modern requirements in sanitation
and lighting.
The little house is to be main
tanned here as a permanent in
SEPARATION to model home making
If the funds can be secured to
move it to another site once "bet-
ter home" week is over. And,
with the General Federation of
Women's Clubs back OF the prof
ect, that will be an easy matter.
/ understand, moreover, that it
is to be used as a woman's in
formation bureau during the
Shriners' convention.
Mrs. Meloney has been in Wash
fngton for the last several days,
and is enlisting the help of various
women's organizations in the cause
In which she is so much interest
ed. You may remember that it was
she who brought Mime. Curie to
this country and helped to make
her visit such an inspiration to
American women.

rather cluck now than cackle. Well
now Miss Biddy, it seems a 'leetle"
strange that with all the improved
labor-saving machinery on the mar
ket today, you still insist in hatch
ing your own eggs. Consequently
some folks are all wrought up for
fear this rather unusually cold
weather will make quite a shortage
in their hatch by causing their sit
ting biddies to do SO much shiver-
ing that they break about all their
eggs.

.BACKACHE IS A WARNING
McCOnnelsville People Should Not
Neglect Their Kidneys

Backache is often natures most
frequent signal of weakened Kid
neys. To relieve the pains and
aches, to remove the lameness
when it arises from weakened kid
neys, you must reach the cause
the kidneys. If you have pain
through the small of your back,
urinary disorders, headaches, dizzy
spells, or are nervous and depress-
ed, start treating the kidneys with
tested kidney remedy.
Doan's Kidney Pills have been
proved good and are especially for
weak kidneys. Doan's have besn
used in kidney trouble for over so
years. Here is convincing proof
of merit. 1t comes from this To-
cality.
O. e. Berkley, prop. OF barber
shop opposite postoffice, Malta
Ohio, says: my kidney trouble was
mostly with the kidney secretions
which burned in passage. / used tc
be a house painter and the fumes
of turpentine brought on the .trou-
BILE. Someone told me about DOan's
Kidney Pills. / got box and they
rid me OF all the trouble. / car
say my cure has been lasting one
and / gladly recommend Doan't
Kidney Pills." n
Price 6Oc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy

PIPE OIL COATED
AT TYCAP WELL
Workers Pull 5 and S-iIch Cas-
ing-TO Run SIN. at the
King No. 2.

Messrs. Hackathorne, Sher-
rod and Clark have been pull
ing casing the past few days
at the old Tycap we'll, north of
town. About 1900 feet of 5 90
in. and several hundred feet Of
8 in. casing has been removed
from the hole. Driller Clark,
one of the workers, says the
8 in. pipe is cooted with oil
when brought to the surface.
This, he says, is fluid that was
dumped outside the smaller
casing when oil showed up at
the we'll more than a year ago.
1t was impossible to make a
test, however, because of an
impossible fishing job.
The 5 3-8 in. casing remov-
ed from the Tycap we'll has
been purchased by the Colum-
bus-Hope Oil Co. and will be
used in their King No. 2 east
of town. Mr.. Thurman, pres
ident of this company, stated
today in a telephone conversa-
tion to this office that he will
go to ElDorado at once and
purchase additional sin cas-
ing to finish out the string
at their we'll. This casing, he
says, will propably be cement
ed within ten days for a test.
The Nichol No. 1, Just north
of town, is still tied up with
a labor lien against Contractor
J. E. Camatte, who is in Shreve-
port. Mr.. Myers, manager of
the Hampstead Oil Co., is in
Grand Rapids, Mich, in the
interest of this development
and it is believed work on the
well will be resumed immedi-
ately on his return here.
