Alderman Preston King, brother of Bishop King, advocated the lethal chamber for incurables in a speech at Bath. Along with the painless eradication of the physically and mentally ruined, r. King took his place beside Dr. Marie Stopes of the Birth Control League, by strongly urging the sterilization of those unfit to propagate the human race. The painless execution of the unfit has attracted public attention before both here and in America. The lethal chamber still has many converts to win before it can be said to even threaten the United Kingdom. It is significant, however, that scarcely a week passes since the war but that some person advocates either sterilization or the lethal chamber as the means of bettering the human race. SUES FOR LOST TEETH DAYTON, Ohio, Jan. 26.—Ohmer L. Stephens, 224 Forest avenue, demands $135 damages in a suit filed against the City Railway Co. Stephen's bill includes, $700 for repairs to his machine, $85 for a suit of clothes, ruined $150 for a plate of five teeth that was knocked out of his mouth and lost, and $1000 for other injuries. A street car hit his automobile. ACTRESS TO TAKE CURE LOS ANGELES, Jan. 26.—Under the care of friends, who announced that they are determined to aid in curing her of the habitual use of narcotics, Paula Ives, beautiful and accomplished vaudeville and screen actress and musician, who is well known to Los Angeles audiences, today prepared to be taken to a sanitarium. THIEF SWALLOWS KEYS PARIS—Seized by police, a thief awallowed several skeleton keys, expecting with their aid to effect his escape. He got a stomach ache. Prison doctor was called. Keys removed with stomach pump. Thief still in jail. ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE GETS GRADE TESTS PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 26.—As a forerunner of future electrification of the heavily graded main line of the Pennsylvania railroad over the Alleghenies, one of the largest electric locomotives for freight service in the world is being tested out by the road on the stiff grades between Philadelphia and Paoli, Pa. The locomotive was built in the company's own shops to the design of their engineers and develops a tractive effort of $7,200 pounds, which makes it necessary to use it only as a "pusher." If it pulled a train it would jerk the drawbar couplings out of the cars with its tremendous strength. An idea of its power can be gained from the fact that it frequently takes the place of two steam pusher engines. Its trials have not been without their humorous features, due to the immense tractive effort. Recently, while pushing a freight train near Narbeth, Pa., the steam locomotive at the head of the train stopped for a danger signal. The big electric engine, however, did not receive the "stop" indication in time, with the result that three freight cars were crushed like accordians before its breaks took hold. On other occasions it has squeezed cars out of trains on sharp curves when the steam engines at the front of the train was not pulling hard enough. FRENCH COLLEGE YELL PARIS—In line with a tendency toward Americanization in French Universities, the University of Paris has developed a "college yell." It yells: "Rick! Rick! Rick! "A la hotpe, al la houpe, a la here! Ceric, Cerac (aki aka, raw raw. Whisky Owl! Whisky Owl! P.U.C., Ouah! !" THREE DAYS ACROSS SEA SEVILLE—Airship stations are being built here and at Buenos Aires to house passenger plane which promotes hope will make regular trips between Spain and Argentina, the voyage lasting only three days.

MIDGETS DEFEATS SANTA ANA 32 TO 11 Coach Irene Jacques basketball babes stepped away from Santa Ana midgets at Fullerton yesterday afternoon 32 to 11. The Anaheim girls got into the fight the first few minutes and kept up the struggle. Rosie Labourdette, star forward, shot eight baskets in the first period. Santa Ana made two points. The centers played exceptionally well and all the action was in Anaheim goal section. The second third saw more action on the part of the Santa Ana girls and each side added eight points. In the last period, both teams were getting a bit uneasy and there was considerable fumbling and wild throwing. When Rosie Labourdette, the little Anaheim whiz, obtained the ball, she was able to add eight more points against one registered by the Santa Ana babes. Anaheim players—Rosie Labourdette, Frances Nelson Marie Hoch, forwards; Alice Longeval, Grace Holsworth, Frances Murch, Florence Finley, conters; Ruth Baungartle, Catherine She, Charleen Smith, Edna John, guards. Santa Ana players—Bowera, Hampton, conters; McNell, Hampton, guards; Longsford, Youell, forwards. Santa Ana did not use any subs. By defeating the other schools of the county, Anaheim lightweight basketball players hold the championship. They held the same honor last year. QUALITY COOKING ECONOMICAL Quantity buying has often been recommended as an economy when there is suitable storage space but less has been said about the economy of quantity cooking. Both require thinking ahead, and one often supplements the other. Having a quantity of flour or sugar in the house may lead to extravagant or wasteful use of the material, unless the housekeeper plans carefully. If she knows what America's Youngest Woman Explorer Returns SOME FACTS ABOUT U.S. WIRE BUSINESS It is a matter of common knowledge that the United States leads the world in point of the extent of telephone service; but the great degree of American superiority is not so generally appreciated. According to a recent survey, on Jan. 1, 1921, there were 20,850,550 telephone in the world, and of these 13,229,379, or 64%, were in the United States. In other words, with only about sixteenth of the world's population, the United States has almost two-thirds of the world's telephones. The number of telephones in all the countries of Europe combined was 5,259-406 or only 25% of the world's total. In the relation between telephones and population, Europe is today exactly where the United States was 23 years ago. Of the total number of telephones in the world on Jan. 1, 1921, about 14,950,000 were operated by private companies, and about 5,900,000 by various governments. The survey indicates, however, that there is a distinct tendency for the development of telephone service to be more extensive in those countries in which the service is operated by private companies than in countries in which there is government ownership. Thus, in the United States, where telephones are under private ownership, there were 12.4 telephones for each 100 people in the country, a development higher than that of any other country. Canada, in which four-fifths of the telephones were under private ownership, had the second best development 9.8. In Europe, the best developed country was Denmark, with 7.7 telephones for every 100 people, followed by Sweden with 6.6, and Norway with 5.0. In all these countries, telephone service was developed by private enterprise, although the government has bought out the private companies in Sweden and parts of Norway. QUALITY COOKING ECONOMICAL Quantity buying has often been recommended as an economy when there is suitable storage space but less has been said about the economy of quantity cooking. Both require thinking ahead, and one often supplements the other. Having a quantity of flour or sugar in the house may lead to extravagant or wasteful use of the material, unless the housekeeper plans carefully. If she knows a few days in advance, however, what she is going to serve to her family, she will not waste her materials and she will also find means of saving time and fuel in quantity cooking. It is obvious that heat and trouble are saved by boiling at one time enough potatoes for two days or by making a double quantity of white sauce or salad dressing. When a double quantity of vegetables is prepared the amount can be divided and the second lot served so as to seem entirely different. For instance, half the potatoes may be put on the table plain boiled or mashed, and the other half may later be diced and creamed or hash trowned. Plain boiled string beans may be followed by beans in a white sauce or with a sour dressing. Cabbage lends itself to warming over in a number of ways. The same idea may be applied to meat. Purchasing a quarter of lamb or several ribs of beef is usually thrifty in a large household. The parts that keep least well can be stewed immediately and set away for several days, except in the hottest weather. Some housekeepers may also find that they can advantageously do more of their baking at one time. In many homes, for example, baking bread, twice a week is an economy. The United States Department of Agriculture recommends the use of the old-fashioned soup pot into which bones, meat scrapes, and vegetable waters can be put. The soup, however, should not be kept on the back of the stove except when it is actually cooking. It should be kept at other times in a cold place and its contents either renewed entirely every day or two or boiled to sterilize them. Cooked, vegetable and cereal left-overs can be put into the strained soup when it is heated up a little before serving time. An increased milk order every second day will enable one to make two desserts at once, saving time and fuel, or a dessert and a milk soup, or a dessert and white sauce. The cooked milk product is easier to keep over a day than the uncooked milk. When milk, even skim milk, replaces water in cooking, the food value of the product will be increased by valuable body-building protein and lime. Desserts in which milk is used, or eggs, or both are suitable when the main dish of the meal is less hearty than usual. A good rule to follow is to plan Gertrude Emerson, Noted Editor, Visits Buried Cities in Asia "Miss Marco Polo"—the title earned in the Orient by adventurous Gertrude Emerson, associate editor of "Asia," for her indefatigable explorations—is safe on American soil again, to the infinite relief of her friends. For this intrepid small person, who is just five feet tall and only weighs ninety-six pounds, went all around the world during the last two years, absolutely alone, on a still hunt for picture and story material for her magazine. People Courteous Everywhere Wherever she went, people were solicitous for her safety, but she waved warnings aside and blithely kept on with her exploring. She hunted tigers in Indo-China, and crocodiles in India; she traveled by elephant, camel, sampan, horseback, motor, aeroplane and ocean liner over so many thousands of miles that she lost count of them herself. She visited Angkor, a buried city of Cambodia, rediscovered by the French in 1910, where only one hundred persons had ever been since. She explored the famous bat caves of the Philippines and took dangerous motor trips across Indian country that was infested with fansical insurgents. She was the only passenger on a cargo boat, going from Port Said to Constantinople, which two months before had been held up by the Turks with resultant large death rate. "But I wasn't scared," she offers casually. "An American woman can go anywhere and she's doing it, too if not in person at least by way of pencil or pen." American Music Heard 'Round The World "For instance, there was the zippy little walk: Thie O'Clock in the Morning to which I danced American dances in Yokohama, Paris, Bangkok and London." Dorothy there were 12.4 telephones for each 100 people in the country, a development higher than that of any other country. Canada, in which four-fifths of the telephones were under private ownership, had the second best development 9.8. In Europe, the best developed country was Denmark, with 7.7 telephones for every 100 people, followed by Sweden with 6.6, and Norway with 5.0. In all these countries, telephone service was developed by private enterprise, although the government has bought out the private companies in Sweden and parts of Norway. Germany, altho it ranked next to the United States as to number of telephones, with 1,509,574 instruments, had a development per 100 inhabitants of only 3.6. Austria had 2.2. Great Britain 2-1. France 1.2. Belgium 0.5., and Japan 0.6. In all these countries, telephones are owned and operated by the government. So far as the telephone development of cities is concerned, the United States again leads the world. Except for some cities in Canada, a few in the Scandinavian countries, and one city in Switzerland, no foreign city of any size had a development as high as 10 telephones per 100 inhabitants, whereas the average development of the 30 United States cities with a population of 250,000 or more was 16.7. Judged by United States telephone standards, the great cities of Europe are exceedingly under-developed, in spite of the fact that telephone service abroad is largely restricted to the citizen. One-third of all the telephones in France are in Paris; one-third of all the telephones in Great Britain are in London. The sort of telephone service that is such a well-known feature of life in the smaller communities and rural districts in the United States and Canada is almost unknown abroad. SLEEPS IN COLD WHEN HEAT CRACKS VIOLIN ST. PAUL, Jan. 26. — Two small cracks have appeared in the $15,000 Cappa violin of Hearri Verbrugghen, conductor of the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra. The cracks were caused by steam heat and lack of moisture, so Mr. Verbrugghen has turned the heat off in his apartment. He says it will not be turned on again this winter, even though he has to wear a fur coat while sleeping. The cracks have been photographed and a picture will be sent to violin authorities in London, who will appraise the damage. The instrument is insured for $12,000 with Lloyd's Ltd., London. Repairs on the violin are expected to cost from $5,000 to $8,000. The damage to his beloved Cappa made Mr. Verbrugghen wretched for several days after the crack was discovered Wednesday. He has taken extreme precautions to safeguard his other viola, a Joseph Guarnerius valued at $25,000. In An increased milk order every second day will enable one to make two desserts at once, saving time and fuel, or a dessert and a milk soup, or a dessert and white sauce. The cooked milk product is easier to keep over a day than the uncooked milk. When milk, even skim milk, replaces water in cooking, the food value of the product will be increased by valuable body-building protein and lime. Desserts in which milk is used, or eggs, or both are suitable when the main dish of the meal is less hearty than usual. A good rule to follow is to plan meals so that one can prepare in advance as many foods as possible at one time and to combine such work other kinds necessarily done in the kitchen. Start something cooking before washing the breakfast dishes; often it will be done when the last plate is washed, the required saucepan can be disposed of, and the time saved put to another use. BATTLE PROFITEERS IN NEW SOUTH WALES SYDNEY, N. S. W., Jan. 23.—Labor supporters in New South Wales are complaining against the expressed intention of the government to repeal the profiteering act, a measure of the late labor government which was intended to save workers from unduly high prices. The complaints contend that the repeal of the act would leave the workers at the mercy of profiteers. The Nationalist government, however, proposes to go even further than its predecessors in this matter, it has been announced, and, while the profiteering act will be repealed, it will introduce legislation of a kind previously unknown in New South Wales for the repression of harmful monopolies and restraints of trade. The new bill provides that any person is guilty of an offense if he monopolizes or attempts to monopolize the production or manufacture, trade or commerce in any commodity or article of commerce or the supply of any services.

American Music Heard 'Round The World For instance, there was the zippy little waltz 'Three O'clock in the Morning' to which I danced American dances in Yokohama, Paris, Bangkok and London. Dorothy Terris, an American girl, wrote the words to that, and non it's an international band played not only by foreign dance orchestras but by the native themselves on their own peculiar instruments. The ship's orchestra played it on my way over from London and where I got home, a phonograph near by apartment greets me with the familiar: "It's three o'clock in the morning. We've danced the whole night through. And daylight will soon be dancing. Just one no wait with you." It was hard for me to realize that I was really at home again. THOMPSON WON't RUN AGAIN CHICAGO, Jan. 26.—William Hale Thompson, for eight years mayor of Chicago, throw a bombshell into political circles today by announcing flatly and definitely that he will not be a candidate for re-election. "I'm through," the mayor declared. Mr. Thompson, a Republican has been in power in normally Democratic Chicago since the day he stepped into the political limelight.

In addition to turning off the heat in his apartment, he has placed a nursing bath towel in the closet with the instrument to provide sufficient humidity. A raw potato, from which a thing alive is cut every day, is in the violin case. RUSSIAN CITY BUILT IN BERLIN BERLIN, Jan. 26.—The Russians are building within Berlin a Russian city of no mean proportions. Already their colony has reached a population figure as large as that of Columbus, O. Indianaapolis, or Denver, according to estimates of the local Soviet embassy. Wherever night life blooms, one finds now a Russian restaurant springing up. The cook of the caesar is employed in one. Prince This and Prince That are managing others. Little Russian theaterists, with the fascinating art and music of Moscow, lure the German and the visiting foreigner as well as hundreds of the Russian colony. POSTOFFICE PENS For years we have drawn lessons on government ownership from telephones, railroads, and street cars; but if we were asked right now to give our strongest most convincing argument against government ownership we would put ourselves on record by saying: the postoffice pen. Did anyone ever see a good pen in a postoffice or a bad one in a bank? And who owns and controls the postoffice? And who owns and controls the bank? We hurt this argument at any advocate of government ownership and we remind him: "You can't change your postoffice but you can change your bank." Also that: "What's everybody's business in nobody's business. And these two things explain why postoffice pens are bad and bank pens are good and why government ownership is no unnatural blending."

GUY BATES POST OMAR THE TENTMAKER Theatre Flowers Furnished YE COLONIAL SHOPPE 214 E. Center Street A First Print Picture INDIA'S FUTURE DEPENDS UPON U.S. S. The prosperity of India depends upon the bugeing power of the United States, and she will not turn the corner of the present industrial depression until her exports to this country reach normal, says G. H. Lee, representative of the Consolidated Steel Co. at Calcutta. Mr. Lee has been located in India for the last eight years and is returning to New York, where he expects to assume connections with the central offices of the company. He stated that, economically, India was today in the same position that the United States was 18 months ago. The deciding factor in the prosperity of that country, due to the fact that she has always been the heartiest purchaser of every one of India's chief exports, with the exception of tea. "Money is so tight in India," Mr. Lee said, "that the banks are demanding 100 per cent deposit for credit extensions and usually a 10 per cent additional margin. The situation is slowly improving, however, and the spirited momentum of this year is doing much to believe the anxiety of the famine." KAW INDIANS GET SUDDEN RICHES KAW CITY, Olda, Jan. 26.—The Kaw Indians here will observe the early hours tomorrow with the greatest festival in the history of the tribe. For the Kaws hitherto the poor and cautious cousins of the Osages, the richest Indian in the world, have reached the turning of the way. Under the leadership of the first woman chieftain in the tribe's history Lucy Tyap Ends, they are entering on a new era except to place them on equal footing with their wealthy neighbors this year. An oil well with a natural flow of more than 2,000 barrels daily came in on the Kaw reservation today. The black hills which had brought precisely by only a matter return for grazing ground witnessed wild scenes all day. Bids were put in for $1,000 an acre for royalties in the first deaths of the dry land under the increased competition of continued arterials threatened to take a jump before many more hours. The news of the well resulted in a stampede which would well compare with the rush of the gold fields of California and Alaska. Phone 20 and we will deliver your order. Schneider's Market.
