 EUfIHs1 SUFFER
 MANY TRAGEDIES
DOWAGER EMPRESS OF RUSSIA HAS SUFFERED MANY GREAT
 SORROWS

COPENHAGEN, Feb. 10. (P)-Dow- ager queens of Europe have suffered many tragedies in the last half cen tury.
 The Dowager Empress Marie of Rus- sia, who had another great sorrow in the loss of her sister, Queen Alexan- dra, has probably been through more horrors than any royal parsonage of history.
 With the possible exception of the unfortunate Empress Charlotte of Mex ico, the Dowager Czarine has gone through greater tragedies than any of her sister queens of recent times. The strain was too much for Char lotte's nerves, and clouded mind saved her from full realization of the horrible slaughter of her husband, the Emperor Maximilian.
 Queen Amelie of Portugal, who now divides her time between England and France, suffered the loss of her hus- band and older son at the hands of the bomb throwers, and saw her younger son dethroned year after he succeed ed his father.
 Former Empress Zita of Austro- Hungary, is a refugee in Spain, where she has her interesting family of child ren about her and is seeking to ad- vance the claims of her oldest son, Archduke Otto, to throne which no longer exists. Her fortune is gone. Her eTlDire is parcelled out among the other "1.f, with republican govern ments
 Queen 8rga and Queen Sophie, of Greece, respectively, widows of the Dowager Empress Marie's brother and nephew, also are refugees from the country where they once ruled.
 Russia's ex-Empress, born of the Danish royal family, has had a life as eventful as her sister Alexandras was peaceful. She survived her husband O-A@~AASSA ,, to see her country plunged into two wars, followed by a revolution which wiped out all vestige of kingly power and butchered her son Czar Nicholas and his entire family.
 Another unhappy dowager empress was the late Empress Frederick of Germany, mother of the ex-Kaiser. She ruled for only three months with the dying emperor, and as empress and dowager of Germany, she was the vic- tim of personal and political intrigue which caused her to be hated by the German people and referred to as That Englishwoman." Even her son is charged with having neglected her after he ascended the throne, and she Idied twelve years later.

WIERINGER, Holland, Feb. 9. (P)- The honest folk of this island, widely known as the former place of exile for the German Grown Prince, have not spent an hours quiet rest of nights since the island was joined to the main land by dam as part of the great Zuyderzee drainage scheme.
 Wieringer was an Arcadia where all the rugged and pristine virtues reign ed. .s Burglaries or robberies were un- known. Since the dam was laid, how ever, the islander have been suffering from veritable plague of thieves and other undesirables who have descend ed upon them from the mainland.
 Wieringers now are asking them selves whether it was worth while to come in contact with civilization.

PRACTICAL GOWNS
 CR0WDING OUT
 TINSEL OF MOVIES
FLIMSY CREATIONS ARE THING OF PAST IN MOTION PICTURE
 PRODUCTIONS

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 10. (P)-Thea- trical gowns-those flimsy, draped-on, incidental creations that have sparkled behind the footlights for a century and more-are passe, so far as their use in motion picture productions is con- cerned.
 In their place have come more prac- tical garments-practical because they may be used for street wear and for occasions other than before the camera.
 The fashion creators of Paramount Pictures are authority for this, and they go so far as to say that the gowns of nowadays are fashioned for purposes other than to fit the wearer for the part she interprets. It is their opinion that the feminine fan of to- day leans heavily on the picture house for advance tips on the latest in style.
 Gowns used in production, therefore must reflect the style of the moment, but they also must be practical and an intelligent prediction of the fashion to come.

 BRINGS CHARGE
 AGAINST BETTING

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. g. (P-A new charge against betting parties" has been brought by Dr. Allan J. Smith, professor of pathology at the University of Pennsylvania.
 These occasions, he contends, prob ably are one of the important meth ods of spreading pyorrhea, particu- larly the type known as trench mouth," introduced during the war and becoming an increasing cause of infection.
 Dr. Smiths statements were based upon research conducted by his as- sociate, Dr. M. T. Barrett, instructor in oral pathology, at the University. Dr. Barrett said that while before the war bacterial infection caused not more than 3 or 4 per cent of the pyorrheal infections, at present at least 25 pre- cent is due to the germ causing trench mouth"
 A small percentage of pyorrhea also is caused by another type of bac- teria, known as streptococcus vim cente, but the majority of it still is caused by kind of amoeba, he said.
 Dr. Smith and Dr. Barrett agreed that pyorreheal conditions of the mouth could be removed thru proper treatment.

LONDON, Feb. g. P-Beware of the boy of eight whose mother des- cribes him as a perfest little gentle man," is the warning sounded by Dr. Crichton- Miller.
 The boy of eight who has soiled hands and refuses to let his mother scrub him up and keep him immacu- late is merely showing the independ- ence which is necessary for the proper development of a man who will shoulder responsibilities and not shirk his life duties, Dr. Creighton Miller said.
 It is a good psychological sign when a boy cuts loose from his mothers aprons strings and insists on doing things for himself and doing them his own way, even if it is a pretty poor way, in the opinion of the spe- cialist, who urges women not to re- gard -carelessness in a youngster as a sin,

WICHITA, Kan, Feb. g. (P)-A plan for parental education in Wich- ita, has gained the attention of the American Federation of Women's Clubs and the National Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teachers Asso- citations.

MILKING BY, MACHINERY

IIUMAN life and human effort some
4 l times seem to be about the cheap
est commodities there are on the mar
ket. But careful study of any method
iof production will show that machine
labor is always cheaper than hand
labor. In the old days back on the
farm, there was one job that was al
ways done by hand no matter how
much machinery the farmer owned.
That was milking the cows. Not only
that but it was firmly believed that it
was one job that always would be
done by hand. Just as in another line
of industry type setting was always
done by hand. For years. the idea Of
machines that would set type or milk
cows was regarded as joke. THAT
is something that only fingers can
ever do"
Yet for years past, most of the type
has been set and much of the milking
has been done by machinery. Many
farmers still contend that the human
hand is the best and most effective
milking machine to be found. This
has been the subject of much discus
sion in farm journals and at farmers
Institutes.
The agricultural department of the
University of Illinois: decided to find
out the truth. So two experts COM
piled the cost records from SO Illi-
neis farms for six years. The re-
suits have recently been published and
commented on in the Prairie Farmer.
The report shows that it takes more
time and costs more to milk by hand
than by machinery. Figuring on the
basis of one COW for one year, it was
found that it required 1873 hours of
hand labor but only 81 hours of ma
chine labor, a saving of 80 hours per
COW per year. Naturally, the larger
the number of cows, the greater the
saving. Regarding expense, figuring
labor at the rate of 171s cents per
hour, it cost S23.44 to milk COW by
hand for one year and $1S.64.per year
to milk COW by machinery. The only
way that hand labor could be put on
the same scale as machine labor was
by estimating hand labor at 81 cents
an hour and farm labor today cannot
be secured at that price.
Regarding cleanliness, either was
equally good. provided hands, machine,
buckets, strainers and other utensils
were kept clean.
