Efficiency in the White House.
(New York Times)


 Not content with having extra private secre- tary, President Hoover has had a telephone placed directly before him on his desk. Perhaps he had caused study to be made of the number of steps he would have to take to go into another room or to telephone booth, and decided to save both energy and time by having the instrument directly at hand That would be like efficiency en- gneer
 Let 1t not be supposed, however that anybody can call up MT Hoover and get" him at once. His office telephone will be carefully guarded is his office entrance No call for him will be put through" unless his secretaries know from whom it comes and whether it is authorized. But whenever the President does wish to receive give tele- phone message he do it by lifting his hand.
 He will not be subject to the vexation of being rung up by some one elses secretary, who ask him to hold the wire" until her employer who is fearful of wasting his time, knows that he can talk with MT. Hoover. All other minor miseries of the telephone habit will doubtless be spared the Presi dent. Even if Representative or Senator wants to get in touch with Hoover by telephone, he will be asked to state his business and take his turn just as if he were tourist desiring Presidential auto graph.
 Many a harassed business would almost be willing to become President of the United States in order to have telephone thus convenient when he wanted it, and thus silent when he didn't.

GROWING NORTH PACIFIC INDUSTRY

One of the industries that is being developed 1T the Northwest that has not attracted the attention that imporancs deserves is that of garment mak ing Portland and Seattle are both making garments in competition with Eastern manufacturing They are selling their products not only on the Pacific Coast but are shipping them to the Eas in constantly growing quantities
 Much of this garment making is of silk imported from Japan and wool raised in the West. Port land has long been making high class garments blankets etc. for Eastern as well Western mar kets from the product of woolen mills at Oregon City and elsewhere Now it is said that 5000 people are employed in Seattle garment factories. Some idea of the development of the industry may be gleaned from the following editorial comment from last Wednesdays Post t-Intelligencer:
 Recently Seattle told of large in- dustry which has grown up here in late years almost unnoticed. Garment making in this city is in the infant class, yet it is lusty youngster, employing about 5000 per- sons
 Speaking the other day with special ref erence to wash dress manufacturing, Wal ter s. Johnson President of large producing these articles, said
 The industry is able to compete
 with the East because climatic
 ditions here are favorable, the
 class of workmen and workmanship
 is so high, because we able to sell
 direct to retailers and because Paris
 is no longer the creator of fashion

 Far more interesting in the summer time in New York and other great metropolitan cities of the East is the fact that apparatus for electric cooling has been placed the market at prac- ticabe prices It has been demonstrated that the temperature of a residence or an office may be reduced from 10 to 20 degrees within half hour or less with a machine whose price and operating cost are not prohbitve to those who live in resi- dences or apartments or who occupy offices.

Money Talks These Days
More or Less True

The only reasonable explanation of why many man married the woman he did is that he never wanted to be bothered by having to sue another man for alternating his wife's affections.
 A girl has right to smoke. but many a girl is going to find her right means she'll be left because a young fellow wants his children to have the kind of mother he had.
 It may be hard to live with a husband who is as full of faults as a sieve is of holes, but it may be some consolation to a wife to know her life would be even more miserable if she was trying to live with one who knew he was just above perfect.
