HELL AN MARIA
DAWES AMERICAN
; HUMAN DYNAMO
PopuIarized CuSSing in Capt.
taI-Had Charge of
War Supplies,

By United Press
CLEVELAND. Ohio, June 10
When Gen. Charles G. Dawes; name
is mentioned, the word hell" i'm
mediately pops into mind.
The slight. energetic bundle Of
nerves, the human dynamo that for
eigners like to picture all Ameri-
cans, was the man who popularized
"cussing" in Washington.
Besides running a great metro
politan>bank. plotting the nation s
national banking system, keeping
Americas Army in France fed and
supplied. putting the Government on
a business basis with a budget, and
settling Europe's financial ills, at
various. times in his career. Dawes
immortalized the expIetive-''Hell an
Maria" and il is probable that this
phrase. inextricab bly, linked with his
name. will survive where his other
accomplishments perish.
Born in Marietta. Ohio, in 1865,
son of Gen. Rufus r. Dawes, young
Charlie led the usual boys life of
those days, finally entering Marietta
College. from which he received an
A. B. degree at the early age of 10.
n Studied Law
After an educational excursion &C
two years to the Cincinnati Law
School, from which he received an
IL. B.. he returned to Marietta for
another year. finally receiving his
masters degree. and there his
schooling" ended.
Dawes was admitted to the Ohio
bar after his Cincinnati study. but
after his graduation from Marietta,
he took his legal training West and
entered practice at Lincoln. capital
Of Nebraska. where. for seven years,
he doled out law to citizens of that
thriving western city.
At this time he met young Lieut..
Jack Pershing, who was an instrue-
tor at the University of Nebraska
The East drew him back at the
end Of that period, however, and la
in 1894 he abandoned law and went
into the prosaic business of furnish
ing gas to the inhabitants of Evans
ton, III, Subsequently he has,
among other things. done the same
service TO citizens of La Crosse,
Wis, and Seattle. Wash.

For three years, Dawes applied
himself to his job, but in 1892, he
quit TO go into business again, this
time as president Of the Central Ma

held for fifteen years. Thereafter he
made his home in Chicago.
When war broke out, Dawes en-

engineering corps with rank Of
major. In June, 1917, he was sent
to France with the rank OF lieuten-

was attached to the administrative

purchasing agent OF the American

Dawes Cut Red Tape

His talent for organization, his i'm.
patience with red tape, his unerring
thrust to the heart OF a situation
with a ready solution at hand. once
again found full play.
He passed through the ranks of
colonel to brigadier- general. When
the war ended, he was appointed to
the Liquidation Commission of the
Allies and efficiently disposed Of the
vast surplus stores of the Army to
willing purchasers in European
countries.
When that task was over, he re-
signed from the Array and returned
TO Chicago, with the distinguished
service medal, the Order of Leopold
from Belgium. and cross Of officer Of
the Legion Of Honor from France.
At that time the Graham commit
tee in the House was investigating
war expenditures and there was A
great TODD over extrava gance and
waste. Dawes. as ex-purchasing
agent, was called to give his testi-
mony which, some Of more partisan
interests thought, might cast some
reflection on the Democratic conduct
Of the war.

as he passed up and down before
the committee, answering some
questions about obvious waste.

 Houses Become Filled.
 Rules of hospitality are amend ed during the silk season. Ordi- narily a visiting relative or friend is entertained and given tea and food. But in silk season 1t is perfectly good form for the visitor to go to the kitchen and help himself. The silk worms almost force the family out of house and home. A typical farm may have a house of nine rooms on one floor. It is about 30 feet wide by 50 feet long. While. the worms are small and thou sands live happily on one tray there is ample shelf room, but when they are fat, old, and juicy only three hundred can enjoy the same bed and board. Then every inch of the house seems filled with trays.
 At the end of 40 days growth the worms must be furnished with facilities for the spinning of their cocoons. Innumerable tiny rice straw baskets are constructed for the insects. Silk worms are not all lowed to fasten their spun houses on twigs because that would cause wastage in the unwinding process. rx-tn quently spin in each straw basket

 Curious Tools Are Used.
 Curious tools are used in silk culture-cleavers sieves, chop sticks and long feathers Cleavers are used to chop the tender mulberry leaves into tiny pieces for the young worms. In order that the food may be small enough for the tiny insects 1t is sifted over the trays with sieves. A soft feather is used to clean the trays. Tending the trays is the most time-consuming opera tion of sbk-worm culture. for the young worms must be changed to fresh trays twice a day and, when older, at least once a day! ...-...
