with a willingness of such indi-
vidual to cooperate for the pub

Democrats propose to destroy.
He asserted that during the
three years Of depression he and
the Republican party, under his
leadership, had remained stead
fast to these fundamental ideals,
frustrated at times by the Demo
Gratis in Congress, but In the
main successful. He continued:
"TO enter upon q series Of
deep changes, to embark upon
this inchOate new deal which
has been prOpOunded in this
campaign, would be to under.
mine and destroy our Ameri-
can system"
Repeats 1928 Figures
Mr.. Hoover went back into his
1928 Scrapbook to elaborate upon
the benefits which have accrued
20 the people through the opera
ton of the American system. He
repeated the figures used in his
1928 SpeecheS-that I'VE have
builded 15,000,000 new and better
homes; we have equipped 10000.
900 homes with electricity; we
installed 10000, 200 telephones:
10000, 900 radios, and the service
Of 20,000,000 automobiles" He
added:
"And with the enlargement
OF our leisure we have come to
fuller life"
Shall the system which has
proved all these things, he asked.
pc discarded now. because vote
seeking men appeal to distress?"
There were cries Of mo, no"
from the audience in response to
this question.
Cites Eight Points
In substantiation of his charge
that Democrats "were destruc-
tive" Mr.. Hoover cited eight
points:
l. That they (the Democrats)
proposed to raid the Treasury"
for the benefit Of sections and
groups.
2. That they proposed to in
1late currency.
8. That they proposed to put
the Government into the per.
sonal banking business"
4. That they proposed to re-
duce the Hawle,r-Smoot tariff
rates and substitute therefore
"a competitive tariff for rev.
enue."
S. That they plan to put the
Government Into the power
business"
6. That they have promised
Jobs to all unemployed. This
accusation was based upon a
letter of Governor Roosevelt's
In which he said that he "would
support measures for the in
l., auguration of self-liquidating
public works such as utilization
of water resources, flood con-
troll, land reclamation, to pro-
vide for all surplus labor at all
times"
z. That they propose to make
the United States Supreme
Court partisan institution.
8. That the Democrats are
preaching "a gospel of despair"
concerning the future Of Amer
lea industrially.

"The Philosophy upon which

THE WASHINGTON SMART AND
FECTIVE ANNIVERSARY QUILT

TINE Washington anniversary
quilt is one of peculiar inter-
est for homemakers in this
L year of 1882, during which Is
celebrated the 200th anniversary
of the birthday Of the Father Of Our
Country. This quilt has been developed
especially for readers of this paper.
The square shown today is used as a
border. 1t is a historic pattern called
the Washington pavement 1t is also
sometimes called Philadelphia pave
ment. AS the latter city was our first
National Capital. and there Washing
ton delivered his farewell address to
the people of the United States. to call
the pattern by either name associates
1t distinctly with Washington.
The pavement pattern comes in full
size Oddly enough, the number of
blocks required for a square is 13
which is magical number in Ameri-
can history, since the United States
began with 10 Colonies. Besides these
- blocks there are Is half blocks and
large pavement blocks.
The Washington pavement pattern
IS one of the simplest and easiest to
make of all the patchwork designs.
1t is also one of the extremely interest
ing designs. Each square is complete
in itself. and can be made with
patches" so large that one square is
big enough for sofa cushion or chair
seat, or smaller squares can be COM
bined for these purposes. Or a square
can be so small that one is sufficient

Also the squares can be united to form

decorative use Of the Washinton pave

year when the quilt is begun in cele-

squares for the border to surround in
closed patchwork. The pattern (full
size) can be had for 10 cents, accom-
panied by a self-addressed and stamped
envelope, with a request directed to

Mrs. McDougal had never seen an In

The cattle wandered into the forest,
and Mrs. McDougal went after them

She was lost in the forest!
Dropping to the ground, the unhappy
woman wept. AS she lay there she
heard the sound of some one walking
through the forest. Terror seized her
heart
1t was an Indian!
The warrior came close, and then
made sign which seemed to mean,

''TOOls" Warrington Used
in His SURVEYING Work

The George Washington bicentennial
commission is authority for the state
ment that the essential instruments
used in surveying during Washington's
period of activity were the chain and
an instrument for measuring angles.
For the first, Washington used what is
called the Gunter chain. The instru-
ments for measuring angles then in
use were the plane table, circumfer-
entor and theodolite. The first was
of restricted use, being confined to
small Enclosures, and it is not likely
that Washington used it to any ex-
tent, II at ALL The theodolite then,
as now, was elaborate and costly, and
it is doubtful whether Washington
ever had one, although it would prob
ably be necessary to go through his
invoices carefully in order to deter
mine the matter finally. 1t is known,
however. that he did have a circum-
ferentor, so that 1t is safe to consider
that this was his chief, If not his. only,
instrument He may have had a pro-
tractor and, of course, he possessed
other necessary instruments for plot
ting. including compasses, scales, etc.,
but these were for outdoor instru-
ments. His tripod is still at Mount
Vernon.
