DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, THURSDAY, MARCH 13,1921.

f T v Buildincj Says Good Home-Making Involves the High Arts Chicago, in keeping with the rest o| the United States, is turning its attention to the national movement for bet, ter homes. Various women's clubs and other social agencies, in programs and other forms of service, are teaching the lessons of “better homes, better citizens.” Attractive homes that add to the comfort of adults and provide interesting surroundings for adolescent and Juvenile members of the household are fundamental requisites tor happy fam Hies, according to the originators of the movement. Hendrik Van Loon in his history of mankind, -after reviewing all the phases of statecraft, industry and re ilglon that have Influenced the making of our race and civilization what it is today, and after recording the influence of various leaders in military, scientific and literary achievements, says Rembrandt. Beethoven and ttodln are tit* prophets and leaders of the race. “A world without art and happiness Is like a nursery without laughter.” In other words, art In Its various forms has fteen the liberator of the race. No civilization can exist without art. But of all the various phases of art, that of the small house and its contents and surroundings is most difficult t« achieve, yet most vital to a happy life and a satisfactory community or nation. A beautiful'home has the power t<> attract attention, improve conduct, compel respect, bind families and friends together, form communities, found states and create nations. Men and women reared in and among benutiful homes acquire good taste from I them and seldom if ever do a very ugly thing. Good home-making in--1 wives all the high arts and produces, , the eiost happiness for us all. The small liomes are Just as Important or more important than large I homes from a moral, economic and patriotic point of view. The building of homes is a matter of most vital c->n-corn to the welfare of a nation. | Homeless citizens and families, whether rich or poor, are not potentially the best citizens. A citizen with a rent receipt and i a foreigner with a passport have vm liar uninterested and IrresponslM" mental attitudes toward the'conu.tuI nlty, town or state. Cost of Home The value of the bouse and lot pur chased for a home by the typi ;d I AiDeriCAty family lies between one and I two-tltl*da and two and a half tinos ' the fariSly'Fannual income at the time i of purchase, realtors throughout the National Aaaeciation of Real Estate , Boards and their clients, the unity of home buyers nationally, will learn i with equal Interest.

A feed held following the initiation. ■ " o ——- SAY FALL SENT (Continued front page one) the lust republican national convention in Chicago. Walsh notified Wood to conn- to the capitol for a conference this afternoon. Washington, Mar. 13—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Theodore Roosevelt. acting secretary of the navy, was called before the senate oil committee today to explain the use of the navy's armed forces at Teapot Dome and elsewhere in support of the interests of certain oil men. Marines sent to Teapot Dome chased away oil operators who claimed rights there. They were sent on Roosevelt's orders. He also will Imj asked almut his dispatch of battleships to Mcxe-ah waters on representations from eil magnates that such a step wa« m-cessary to protect American interests. Before Roosevelt took the stand, the committee went into the stm-k speculations of Attorney General Daugherty and Senator David Elkins. West Virginia. Both these officials have acknowledged st<x-k denis, but the full extent of their operations have not been revealed to the satisfaction of the committee. Lewis D. ilond. accountant who examined brokers’ books for the committee, was called as the first witness. Some of the committee's inquiry nto th- use of marines and warships arises from information collected by th-'American Federation of lacbor, in conjunction with Mexican labor forces. This data is understood to indicate that American ships were sent to Tampico on a pretext that there were labor diaturbansM there. This the' Mexican labor officials deny and claim to have proof that this was not the real reason American oil in terests sought th- intervention of this government. The story of ejection of "squatters" from Teapot Dome by marines Is ex I pected to fit into previous testimony I indicating that Albert B. Fall, then I interior secretary, did everything possible to insure possession of Tea I pot Dome to Harry Sinclair and his Mammoth OH company. MRS.

intrigue from which in the end he found such the only escape. ». That Smith and Daugherty were involved in a “deal” concerning exhibition of the Dempsey-CarpenAu-fight pictures which was to net them a profit of SIBO,OOO. That she herself was given 25 shares of White Motors stock, which, her ex-husband told her, “didn't cost I us anything.” » That at another time she received '27 shares of Pure Oil stock, likewise!

obtained "without cost." That Smith, proprietor of a department store in Washington Court House, Ohio, amassed a considerable fortune after coining to Washington. That the dead man was constantly harassed by persons seeking "patronage" because of ills intimacy with the attorney general. Through all her story, broken by sobs, Mrs. Smith stressed (he close friendship of Smith and Daugherty ' and Insisted that whut involved one I involved the other.
