Establishment of a Capitol guides
service in the Capitol building in
place of the present system, under
which guides charge a fee to every
person shown about the building, Is
proposed in n bill introduced in the
House yesterday by Representative
Sydney Anderson of Minnesota at the
request of Joseph G. Rodgers, ser
Seant-at-armS.
The Anderson bill would have a
service of eight guides at salaries of
$1,000 a year each. They would be
under committee composed of the
sergeants-at-arms OF the House and
Senate, the doorkeeper of the House
and the architect of the CapftoI
Representative Anderson and many
other members of Congress have re-
celved frequent protests against the
present fee-charging practice, which
has been denounced at quarter
snatchiug," booklet and souvenir
card peddling," "commercializine q
America" "hold-up" and other un.
savory descriptive adjectives.
1t is explained by Representative
Anderson and Sergeant at arms Rod

lation il is hoped to make it possi-

Indiana County Is
Population Center
For Foreign Borr,

The center of foreign-born popu-
lation OF the country is located In
Allen county, Ind. 1913 miles east
of New Haven, having taken
southwestward trend after two
decades of southeastward move
ment. In determining the foreign

the ten years from 1910 to 1920.
Its movement was Ills miles east
ward and Is miles southwark.
The change in direction of the
movement of this center from east
to west is due principally to the
increase in foreign born white
population in the state OF Cali
fornia," says the bureau. The to-
tai increase in the foreign born
white population of the United
States was 367,209 and the increase
in the states of Texas, California

A Puzzle
a Day

A square-shaped farm contained
four houses and four barns, arranged
as shown in the drawing. When the
farmer died, he left equal shares in
the farm to his four sons. Each was
to have house and a barn, and each
was to receive a piece of land exactly
the same size and shape as the 9TH
ers. How was the farm divided into
the four parts; all the same size and
shape, and with house and barn
on each?
On the drawing, the letter H stands
for a house: B for a barn.)
Yesterdays answer:
The five weights were as follows:
12fb. 11zro. 41hro, 13hfo, 401a.
With these any weight can be had
from Il 10 up TO 6O1b, in steps Of II 10.
To weigh 1fb, put the Ign weight
on one side of the scale and the II 10
weight on the other side with a guam
tity of oats. Naturally the oats

Making aCapitalist
By Oscar Schmidt.)


It is possible for every citizen to
become a capitalist; whether he be-
comes a great capitalist or one In q
small way depends upon his Income
to some extent. but chiefly upon his
will power and his habits Of living.
The capitalist of tomorrow is the
systematic saver of small sums today.
The Saving and Loan Association is
the logical maker of the capitalist. 1t
has for its object the owning Of homes
and the owner of a home is a capt.
talist. He has capital which is con-
vertible into cash-usually into cash
which represents a larger figure than
that which he originally invested.
Permanent safety and a per cent
dividend are the two factors which
make the plan magnetic one for the
