DOTH these dresses are so
~ pretty and so simple that you
will want to make them up sew
eral times, in different colors. And
with such beautifully simple de-
signs, whose whole charm is a
matter of line, you can use col
ors as gay as you please, now that
gay colors are smart, and they
look so pretty in the fall. If you've
never done much sewing, here's a
fine chance to find out what sat-
isfaction it is to make yourself
something. These designs are so
easy to do.
A Charming School Dress.
This is a classic style in which
growing girls always look pretty.
The snug waist and f1aring skirt
are so becoming, and just grown
up enough to delight them! In
wool crepe, cashmere, Bingham or
jersey, with fresh white collar and
sleeve bands, it will be your
daughters favorite school frock.
Make one version of it in plaid.
Scallop-T Trimmed Day Frock.
You should certainly have sew
eral dresses made like this-it fits
so beautifully and looks so smart.
Darts at the waistline give it be-
coming slimness. The high square
neckline and Shrugged shoulder"
sleeves are very new. It's the
useful kind of dress you can wear
for shopping and business as well
as around the house. Make it up
in silk crepe, flannel, sheer wool
or housekeeping cottons.

Moderate Use Desirable

Like all sources of great power,
however, sugar must be handled
with care. Too much sugar may
prove as disastrous as too little.
Possibly because Of this, several
false notions have grown up re-
garding this splendid food.
It is often charged that sweets
cause indigestion, and it is true
that when consumed in excess,
they may ferment and result in
irritation. Therefore, moderation
should be the watchword.
But that is an excellent rule to
follow in regard to all kinds of
foods. For when consumed to ex-
cess, any food ceases to be bene-
fetal.
It has also been charged that

heights without the
driving force that
sugar gives to men
and women. And
it is a fact that I'M
til comparatively
recent times, only
the very wealthy
could afford this
quick energy food
which we now con-
sumo at the rate of
more than 1000. 1000

tons a year, or more than 100
pounds annually for every man,
woman and child.
This peerless fuel food was once
regarded almost as a medicine
because of its ability to relieve
fatigue and sustain vitality. And
no wonder! For sugar is trans
formed into heat and power in
less time and with less effort than
any other fO0dStuff.

sweets are harmful to the teeth.
But recent investigations suggest
that the teeth are far more likely
to deteriorate because the proper
minerals and vitamins have not
been included in the diet.
1t is, however, desirable to re-
strict the amount of sugar given
to children. That is because ii
quickly satisfies the appetite and
may therefore decrease the con-
sumption of other good and neces-
sary foods, particularly those con-
tanning an abundance of minerals
and vitamins. Children therefore
can best take sweets in the form
of sweetened buildings, gelatin,
cooked and fresh fruits, and fruit
juice and milk beverages.

The Loyalists might tell you they

SEEING MORE POWER
FOR THE ADMINISTRATION
lOroyilIe Mercury-Regieter1

One of the worst features of the pending
Roosevelt reorganization bill is the provision
aboishing the office of comptroller general and
substituting therefor officer who could not
pass upon government expenditures until AFTER
the money had been spent.
II is much the same as though our board
of supervisors had one dominating head. who
ruled all the boards actions, and who asked
us to abolish the office of county auditor. Inc
county auditor can stop an improper action oil
the board at any time by refusing TO OK eXpendi-
lures Up to now. the comptroller general has
been in that position nationally.
We fail to why the President WISHES 10
abolish the office of comptroller general, unless
he frets under any supervision whatever.
Another bad provision is that congress must
muster a two thirds majority to stop any reor-
ganization proposal of the President. Under the
bill he can veto any resolution diSapproving OF
his action, and two-thirds majority would be
necessary to override the veto.
Theodore Roosevelt's spirit must be shocked
by the provision abolishing the civil service
commission and substituting for it administrator
with an advisory board of 8 all appointed by
the President.
The President under this bill, virtually be-
comes a dictator of federal affairs. 1t leaves
no one to stop him. This we know because
we know that he controls enough III congress
to prevent tWo-thirdS vote against him. He

doing so he prepares 10 seize the reinS and the

RUSHING REORGANIZATION
THROUGH CONGRESS

Very little thought has been given by
h. S. congressional leaders who are at
tempting to push the Administration
reorganization bill through to approval
in as few days as possible to the sentI-
ment Of the public on the measure.
Haste demonstrated in seeking ap-
proval of the proposal seems to indi-
cate. in fact. that the bills supporters
want it approved before the public has
had chance to lodge protests. The fact
does not iibe with our idea of democra
tic government.
A rapidly mounting tide of protests is
being received by senators and congress
men in Washington against the bill If
this tide continues TO flow-One coil

dred letters and wires against and only

They want the bill passed, regardless of
what the people want.
In wiring or writing his congressman,
the average American is exercising the
same privilege he exercises when he goes
to the polls to vote for the congressman
It seems to US his wishes should have
Just as much weight, even though cleo
