The following is a partial i summary of his remarks: "In 1800 when the Government il was removed to Washington, the I, employed numbered 51. There are! now 616,837 civil service employees!' alone and several hundred thous-11 and outside civil service. [■ "There are now 10 major depart- I ments, 134 subsidiary bureaus and j 1 35 independent establishments. "In 1900 the expenditures of Gov j ernnigjit were $650,000,000; they! lire now more than $4,000,000,000. I "11C1900 the per capita tax was j t $9.2W; it is now slo. Appropriations for the army ami nav/Ttavc grown in recent year- < trom $250,000,000 to more than I $400,000,000. jt "fie Department of Commerce’s | ( new building cost $17,500,000 (the I Senator compared it to Solomon's ( Temple). 'ln 1922 appropriations for the I, Department of Commerce were sl6.tto«.nOO; in 1930 tl’iey were $54.- ‘ 715,0(0). 1 "100.0mt.000 bulletins were issu- , cd by the Government last year at| a cost of $20,000,000; 10 per cent; of them were prepared and printed ji tinder the direction of the Depart-, ment of Commerce and the Depart-1 inent of Agricult lire." Senator Harrison then described j 1 some of the bulletins issued by the i Department of Agriculture, as fol- " lews: i "Utilization of the Calcium in I Spinach. No doubt that w ill relieve I 1 many farmers who are in distress. * "Lamb As You Like It. What j Department can tell me the way | lamb should be cooked as I like it? "Reindeer Recipes.

"The Self-help Bib. “Vitamins in Relation to Salad j Dressing.’’ I Senator Harrison cited several! bulletins issued by the Department j of Labor when the present Senator trom Pennsylvania was its head: “Canal Boat Children., It tells! you that there are hut 353 in the I whole United States, but they get | Why the Fat Slow Down Science finds that there is usually a lack,ng gland secretion, its large purpose is to turn food into fuel and energy. When it is lacking, food piles up fat and vim goes down. So doctors the world over now supply that lacking factor. That fa why, in every circle, sljnder figures now prevail. Marmola prescription tablets are based on that great factor in reduction. They , supplant starvation methods by combat-1 ting the real cause. People have used; Marmola for 24 years—millions of boxes of it. Now you see the results in every circle, in slender figures, youth and vim. Go do what these folks did. Ask your druggist for Marmola.

out a pamphlet of 21 pages on how to care for them. "Breast-feeding Demonstrations. Written by a man." Senator Harrison also quoted from a bulletin which he said told of the Love Adventures of the American Bullfrog. "It gave me the very refreshing information that the gentleman frog only croaks or sings when he is in love,’’ he said. Another pamphlet told how to [ make a cat trap. “It tells you,” said Senator Harrison, “that after you remove the cat from the cat trap, if you will get a sack and put it over his head, you can take him out to the, river and drown him without his escaping or knowing anything about it.” Referring to the huge deficit which confronts the Postoffice Department. Senator Harrison said, "One of the reasons tor this deficit was the enormous distribution of government bulletins . . . which are draining the Treasury of the United States.” At a dinner party given to the staff of the "New York American" this week Arthur Brisbane repeated his four rules for advertising copy, worth repeating at the begin- j ning of every new year: (1) You must make men and women see. your advertisement. (2) It must j be plain; it must be simply written. (3) It must make people want what you have to sell. (4) You must have faith in your product. Mr. Brisbane added this observation: “It is not the power of the voice which brings hogs to the hog-caller, but rather the appeal in his voice. Proper appeal in advertising will bring back prosperity.” Editor and Publisher. We have the beet acreage out of the way and now it might be well (i see il we can't locate a first class canning plant which would provide a better market for the local farmers as well as employ some help and bring money into the community. And its not impossible. Don't quit trying. Those who do won’t win. Those who keep hustling will. Use goods made and sold in Decatur. That’s just wisdom these days. When you do you keep the money at home, help your neighbor make a living so he <-in patronize you and get the most tor your money. The man who wrote "The man worth while is the one who can smile when every thing goes dead [wrong” must have had in mind [something like the present conditions. Well it still holds good. [ Do you remember way back when the boys used to complain considerably about a winter like this [when they couldn't put up ice from I the river? Yes sir, we till know that every thing is coming out alright. Its a tough old game but this nation worth billions can and will stand it. j o TWENTY YEARS * AGO TODAY i Fr.m the Daily Democrat File » ■ — - —— > Thomas Mylotl is very ill from I ptomaine poisoning.

It was presented to the General Assembly, December 1852. Female Teachers "Objections may be suggested j to employing for the graded sys-1 tern female teachers. Some per-; sons seem to think females incapable of teaching and managing, schools, so well as might be done; by males. Very few however, who, have had experience in the practi-l cal process of common school | instruction or who have had charge of Seminaries and High schools, for the education of males and females in promiscuous classes, will or can hesitate to give females the preference over males, as teachers of all primary and secondary schools. Both by I talent and disposition woman is peculiarly qualified to be the j teacher of childhood. I « That in native capacity to [ | learn, to acquire- knowledge, to | ; become intimately, thoi nghly and 1 ' extensively acquainted wit’i all the branches usually taught in com- . mon schools, academies, and in high schools females are inferior Ito males, is a notion wholly i groundless. It is merely the re- ! suit of prejudice, of opinions formed from careless observation. ; of conclusions founded on delusive 1 premises and false reasoning. 1 profess to know whereof I affirm. I have been actively and lalioriously engaged in teaching for more than thirty years. During the larger portion of that time, my pupils have been of males and
females In nearly equal numbers] The classes in the common and; higher branches have been mado| up of both sexes, pursuing the same studies, using the same text books, and reciting at the same time, in the same room, to the same teacher, under the same discipline, and subject to equal chances for exhibiting their talents and attainments. And I; have yet to learn that intellect Is] capable of sexual classification i and distinctions. If there le any difference in capacity of sexes for learning it is. so far as the branches required in the public] primary and secondary schools cfj Indiana are concerned, in favor of: ; females. They are more apt to ! learn than males, more quick in i their perceptions, more lively in i their apprehension, and fluent in ' their expression of thought. NAr - are they usually deficient in capacity and patience to master rhe higher branches, and the moie difficult and abstruse subjects. I Some of the finest classical scholi ars I ever instructed were fe- ' males. Some of the best mathematicians I have ever taught were females. The best algebraist, that ever recited to me. was a female, who had earned with her needle in a tailor’s shop the means of payjng her expenses, and edu- [ eating herself for usefulness at the Academy. The best reciter of geometry I every’ saw was a fair young girl, of beautiful person. [ and delicate sensibilities. ! Females are not only apt to learn, but they are peculiarly apt to teach. They seem designed and fitted by nature as the appropriate educator of childhood. They seem to comprehend by instinct and by intuition, the physical necessities, the intellectual wants, and the moral longings of children. And it seems their peculiar province to train, influence and govern children. It is natural for them, their instinctive propensity to love, cherish, caress, amuse and instruct tlie young. And it is equally natural for children to love females. to yield to their influence, and to be persuaded by them to
] obedience. It is only a class . i * reen ’ Sood tor ii othi ° ’ entertain sentiments Pf 7 for the instructions aP(t ot female teachers seem to have forgot teß ft mother was a wonian!!?' incapable of th.- rtelj ments. which the S0( -i e * , tuous and beloved sisu, always inspire r ’!
