NEW FIRE HAZARD

There is nothing new under the
SUM-
The fire preventionist must serious
ly question this saying, in view OF
the many new fire hazards invented
and sold to an unsuspecting public
The hazard of the electric pad used
as a bed warmer is well recognized;
now comes it's twin brother, cheml-
cal bed warmer which is being SOLD
Last month a Wisconsin fire chief re-
ported fire caused by one OF these.
This device consists of a canvas
bag inside of a rubberized bag. Fine
ly divided iron, ferric chloride and
ammonium chloride are placed in the
inside bag. When it is desired to pro-
duce heat, about two tablespoons full
of water are poured on these ingred-
tents. The iron and chemicals will
do the rest A chemical reaction
takes place between the iron and fer
rio chloride when wet, and heat is pro-
duced and liberated. In time the tenn
perature rises high enough to ignite
ordinary combusttble materials, such
as bedding or clothing.
In the recent case reported, the in
side or canvas bag was removed from
the rubberized cover and thrown on
the floor in contact with clothing,
which was igpited and in turn set
fire to the home.
The fire chief reporting this case,
later conducted some experiments
with this device. Ninety minutes after
applying water to the iron and chemi-
cal contents he removed the canvas
bag and placed it in contact with cot
ton. In about fifteen minutes the cot
ton was ignited.
The outer covering adds but little
protection, and we can only view this
latest bed warming device as serious
fire hazard and dangerous substi-
tlte for the time-honored hot water
bottle.
Timely turning off of the current,
makes the electric pad harmless, but
with this new device there is no
ready way of stopping the generation
of heat until too late.
The particular device responsible
for the fire above mentioned is call
ed Triumph Ready Heat" but other

Bryan Would Create
Govt. Campaign Fund
WASHINGTON INVESTIGATIONS
PREPARED PEOPLE FOR LONG
NEEDED REFORM
BY ROBERT FULLER

We are step nearer to the work
ing out of a system of electing public
officials free from the influences OF
big interests seeking government IA
yors, says William Jennings Bryan. II
has come, he points out, as the result
of the many Washington investiga-
tions. Mr.. Bryan, in special inter
view said
"The disclosures made by recent in
vestigations have prepared the people
for along-needed reform need now
apparent to all progressives, whether
Democrats or Republicans
president Roosevelt proposed in
one of his later messages that the
Government appropriate money fol-
legitimate campaign expenses; it was
the best and most far-reaching reform
that he originated, but little attention
was paid to it at that time and no ac-
ton was taken.
"The public understands the situa-
ton now, and action is demanded. Big
contributions from those who are seek
ing Government favors are a menace
to honest government. Some means
must be devised for the carrying on
of campaigns that will correct the
abuses that have been made public.
'The remedy is simple. First, let
the Government issue a bulletin, as
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1924-05-29

some of the states do now-Florida for
instance containing announcements
of candidates with their platforms and
views on public questions. This should
be issued in editions suited to States
and Congressional districts and mail
ed to every voter. This would relieve
the candidates OF the necessity of
spending large sums of money to
bring their claims before the public
and would put all candidates on an
equality
s.Then sum should be appropriated
from the. Federal Treasury to cover
other legitimate expenses, say, for ex-
ample, ten cents for each voter of the
party, as shown by the last general
election Presidential or Congressional,
as the case may be, or in case of a
new party by the number of voters
who, under proper regulations, certify
totheir membership in the new party.
with such provisions made for pub
licity and other legitimate expenses,
personal contributions could be limit
ed to small sums or entirely prohibit
ed. This would put the parties on an
equality and prevent the obligating of
parties or candidates to the predatory
interests
.The plan could be applied to can
didates for the nomination to the ex-
tent of making known the claims of
the candidates in a bulletin issued be-
fore the voters express themselves on
candidates in the several parties.
I'VE should have such a reform oper
ating this year, and thus put an end
to the sale of favors in return for big
campaign contributions.

That animals in their wild state
obey the second half of the decalogue
as we'll, if not better, than their high
er brother, man, is the assertion of
many distinguished naturalists and
observers of wild animal life. Further,
they claim that it is the domestication
Of the wild animal and its association
with human beings that has democrat
lied it and has brought it into disre-
spect.
AS rule, wild animals will not kill
other of their own species. While they
will fight among themselves, the vic
tor is generally satisfied in driving
its opponent away, and will not kill
it. Even rattlesnake will not strike
at other snakes of this kind How
much man needs to learn this les
son in his relations to his fellowmen
the world over!
Animals in their wild state also
generally regard the property rights
OF members Ol LuSlI OWA Sp6ClOS.
While they will steal from other kinds
of animals, they will not trespass upon
, the rights Of their own. Many animals
mark certain haunts which they
claim for themselves. Such haunts rec
ognized by other animals of that fam
lily through the sense of smell or by
visible marks, as being occupied, are
then left for the exclusive use of the
animal first so claiming it. But man,
dealing with his brother, often desre-
CARDS this principle, rObbing his fell
lowmen and burgalizing their domain.
Both domestic and wild animals
obey their elders fully as quickly as
do children of the human family. To
the call of the hen the chick responds
either for food or protection. A fawn
will respond even more quickly to the
call of the doe. Failure to respond on
the part of the young may mean loss
of food and possibly death. But in the
human family disobedience on the
part of children is a common practice.
Much more may be said to prove
that animals are endowed with in
stincts worthy of consideration by
man. We must never forget that God

A WEBER AND FIELDS OFFER?
A TREE FOR TOMBSTONE.

Edward Jackson, Endorsed by the
Ku Klux Khan of Indiana, swept the
State for the Governorship nomination
He got more votes shan all five OF the
other candidates put together. Lew
Shank, Mayor of Indianapolis, most
important candidate against Jackson
and enemy of the Khan, was wiped out
10 to 1.
This election is important out side
of Indiana, and indicates that the Ku-
Klux Khan has gained rather than
lost strength, and will play an i'm
portapt part in the coming national
election.

THRIFTY TIPS FOR THE HOME
BY Flo

EGG YOLKS-Place a piece of wax
paper over dish holding unused egg
yolks and they will not get dry.
PAINTED WALLS - To remove
marks on painted walls caused BIZ
striking matches on them, rub with the
cut surface of a lemon-then clean
with cloth dipped in whiting. Wash
the surface with warm water and soap
and then wipe quickly with clean
cloth wrung out of clear water.
BROOMS-A broom will last longer
if dipped into scalding suds once
week This toughens the bristles.
CARPET-After beating a carpet
try rubbing it with a cloth wrung out
in hot water to which has been added
two tablespoonfuls of menthylated
spirit and a small piece of soap. This
brings out the color and does not in
any way injure the carpet.
sPoONs-Mix mustard with milk
instead Of water and the spoon will
not get black.
LEATHER SEATS-To clean leath-
er seats of chairs, rub lightly with a
soft rag that has been dipped in warm
milk. Then polish with soft, dry
cloth.

There's excitement in France about
the charge that soldiers bones have
been collected on battlefields by junk
dealers, ground up and sold for fertili-
ger. The idea is abominable to many,
therefore the official denial is well
come.
But what better use could be made
of our "remains" than to fertilize the
earth when we are gone? To be
buried at the foot of fine tree, with
little brass tablet on the tree trunk,

,lace than being tucked away with

In Presidential primary election of

out of 1900 registered voters. Proud
Americans seem to lack interest in
