pecially, who were at it's birth and
have watched its growth and develop
ment with more than ordinary solicit
tude, the words are pregnant with
meaning. Il has grown with our in
dividual growth, but, unlike Us, it
has retained it's youthful appearance
and manly vigor. This may be ac-
counted for in part by the fact that
its constituency has been even kind
lier to the paper than to it's publisher
and editor. However, neither has
good reason to complain of the
worlds treatment. The papers circu-
laticn is larger today than for sew
eral years past, and it's business sta
tus is on a more secure and prosper
Gus foundation than it ever was on
any previous anniversary. With

Toxic, Jan. 3l--(By the A. P)--
The Imperial Diet was dissolved
today following scenes of the
greatest disorder in which water
TASKS were thrown and fists used.
The disturbance resulted from at
tempts OF the opposition to inter-
pellate the government regarding
the attempted wrecking of a train
at Nagoya carrying opposition
leaders to Toxic.
The turbulent scenes which occur
red in the lower house made further
business impossible. The outDurst
came shortly after the representa-
tivcs had taken their seats upon the
resumption Of the diet session.
Intcrpcllating the government in
connection with the train wreck in
which three prominent oppositions
suffered injury although the locon,o-
tive Of the train was damaged, the
foes Of Premier Kiyoura and his
newly installed cabinet demanded
that the premier reply personally.
kiyoura. however, refused to rise.
Great disorder Immediately ensued.
The legislators used water CON
tainers as missiles and several en-
gagged in fistic combat. Hostilities
continued until the speaker of the
house hastily declared a temporary
adjournment which was followed by
dissolution of the diet.

HOME ECONOMICS STUDIED

At the regular meeting Of the
Wednesday Study Club, held ycster-
day at the home Of Mrs. F. S. Henry,
the subject Of Home Economics was
considered. A paper and talk upon
Modern Laundry Method by Mrs. W.
f. Lahr proved to be very interest
ing and educational to all. Mrs.
Lhhr brought out the thought that
the modern housewife is no longer
interested in the physical part Of
the Laundry work but with the
Science Of Laundry work. The
science of Laundry Work is divided
into subjects, the chemistry and
Mechanical of Laundry processes.
Uhc mechanical processes are varied
but all consist Of the principle Of
forcing the soapy water through the
fabric of fhe various materials in
order that the dirt and soil may be
removed.
The Chemistry of the Laundry
pApvcs to be rather more interesting
ana difficult. This treats Of the
solvents for different stains and soils
common to laundry work. Here to
fore it was deemed necessary that
boiling water, must be used in cleans
ing clothes but in the study OF the
Science Of laundry Mrs. Lahr proved
that this was an exploded theory. The
methods recommended in the course
of her discussion was practically
the same as those used by the Capt.
tai Steam Laundry of this city.
