Bids Once Rejected.

When President Roosevelt was Assist
ant Secretary of the Navy, he and the
then Secretary, Josephus Daniels, threw
out the number of bids submitted by
steel companies because they were so
nearly the same In fact. Mr.. Roose-
welt was so incensed at this practice
that. with Mr. Daniels, he succeeded in
obtaining from Congress funds with
which later was erected the Navy's
own armor plate plant at South
Charleston, w. Va.
Reminded of this fact yesterday, one
of the steel men smilingly said, But
these are changed times
j. W. Edelin, is Washington repre-
sentative of the Crucible Steel Co.,
which has headquarters in New York
City.
Although identical bids are submit
ted by the steel men in conformity with
the Institutes rules and the N. r. A.
code, the winner is decided by writing
the names of the various companies
on seperate slips of paper. dropping
them into a hat or box and selecting
one blindly Even the interested per-
sons concede that this plan might give
some contractors an advantage by rea-
son of being selected at successive
drawings Some believe that in the
future the Navy will split up the
amounts among number of contrac-
tors.

MAKE REPAIRS NOW

Much could be done toward re-
heVing the unemployment situation
In this and every other community
if all who are able to do SO would
have needed repairs made about
their homes and other buildings
now, instead of waiting until later.
Weary every property owner
could do some remodeling, removal
ing, painting and the like to his
own advantage at the same time
giving temporary employment to
those in need. This plan is being
advocated by emergency committees
all over the country as one of the
most practical means of relieving
the distressing situation which still
exists.
The unemployed want work, not
charity. The acceptance of out
right charity lowers mans self re-
spect, but he can work at any
honorable task and still hold his
head up. That is the idea which
dominates the present nationwide
movement to make more jobs.
It Is always good business to
make needed repairs promptly, and
a property owner today may have
work done at an actual saving to
himself, besides having the salts
faction of doing a worthy act in
behalf of his less fortunate neigh
Dor.

FOOD AND HEALTH

Popular ideas about food are a
strange admixture of truth and fic-
ton, according to a recent article
by DR.. Lieb, an authority on diet.
particularly is this the case with
respect to notions of what is good
for people, or not good for them,
under varying circumstances.
For example, bananas and nuts
were long thought to be hard to
digest, but if the bananas are ripe
and the nuts are chewed sufficient
ly they are among the most easily
digestible of foods.
The prejudice against raw foods
is also unwarranted it is said. Raw
corn, wheat and other starches in
moderate amounts are completely
digested, while raw potatoes are 70
per cent digestible. The craving of
some children for raw potatoes may
be INDUCED to a reasonable extent
without harm, and the same is true
of raw cabbage and lettuce.
Drinking water during meals was
long thought to be harmful to the
but for normal persons
1t Is now declared to be beneficial

HOME DANGERS

Figures compiled by one of the
largest insurance companies show
that accidents in and about homes
cause $4,000 deaths and three mil
lion injuries in the United States
every year. OF these deaths about
5000 are caused by falls; $500 from
burns, scalds and explosions; $500
from asphyxiation, and 1000 from
poisoning.
To avoid such accidents, the Ma
tional Stfety Council recommends
the following precautions:
Have rugs on polished floors an
chored or rubber-lined.
Keep stairways properly lighted,
free of objects on which one might
stumble, with treads and hand rails
in good repair.
Keep sharp instruments, such as
scissors. ice-picks, pins and needles
out of reach of young children.
Have all medicines, washing pow
ders, insectides and other house
hold articles containing poison pro-
perry labeled and kept in safe
place.
Keep all open fires screened,

1.ne development of modern foot
ball from a casual sport to its pres
emit eminence seems remarkable
when it is recalled that the first
intercollegiate game in the world
was played in 1869 between Prince
ton and Rutgers with rs men ON
each team. Incidentally it may be
mentioned that the captain OF the
princeton team in that game is still
alive in the person of Chief Justice
williams S. Gummere, of the New
Jersey Supreme Court, and that his
team lost by the score of 6 to 4.
1t is also interesting to note that
the first play which gave rise to
modern football is commemorated
by a tablet at Rugby School, Eng
land, bearing this inscription:
This stone commentaries the
exploit of William Webb Ellis, who
with q fine disregard for the rules
of football as played in this time
first took the ball in his arms and
ran with it, thus originating the dis
tinctive feature of the Rugby game,
