DOMESTIC SCIENCE EXHIBITION TO BE A CREDITABLE ONE

Large Number of Women are Engaged in Work of Arranging It. OFFER, MANY PRIZES IT' is Expected That a Vast Number of Exhibits Will Come In. Mrs. Frank Land, of the Domestic Science "committee for the Fall Festivas has announced the corps of subcommittees which she has chosen to help prepare and arrange the exhibit which will be held on the first floor of the high school, in the gymnasium and in Miss Bond's room. The number of workers on these committees has been made unusually large, Mrs. Land says, for two reasons. It will be necessary for some of the ladies to be at the exhibit all the time during the festival. This will enable the women to divide up the work with little strain on each one. Then Mrs. Land wants the committees to be boosters before the festival, with the purpose of interesting prospective ex-1 hibitors, and getting entries from as many diferent sources as possible. A Few Vacant Places. There are a few vacant places on some of the committees, which have not been filled because persons from neighboring towns have not notified Mrs. Land of their willingness to All entries must be in, Mrs. Land says, by Saturday night, September 27.

No sooner is an - toot" of the steam roller Js heard and the amendment is voted down by a large majority. It is now certain that the bill will be reported into the house with no amendments except such as the banking and currency committee itself proposes or such as it is willing to accept after they have been carefully vised by the bosses. Finley Gray Gets His. representative Finley Gray, of Indiana, went "up against" the steam roller, and met the common fate of those before him who has tried to buck the house organization. The Sixth district representatives proposed two amendments, both of which appealed to the progressives as being excellent. He made a vigorous tenminute speech, throwing into it all the vim he could command. He was cheered to the echo. The shouts were heard half way over to the ! the eastern division, the southern division, the western division, and the 'north central division, each of which said divisions shall embrace as nearly as practicable to the geographical ter- ; ritory designated by their respective i titles, and in selecting the four ap- , pointive members of the federal reserve board the president shall appoint not more than one of such memjbers from the same geographical di- ! vision." Representative Gray again bucked the house machine by proposing the following amendment: "Admission to rediscount shall be "Nor shall any admission to rediscount discriminate aeainst anv troduct of labor in the ownership of the j original producers thereof as the basis for such paper, where securities based upon such products in the hands of purchasers of the same are admitited to rediscount."

GOVERNORS GALORE BEGIN CONVENTION

COLORADO

SPRINGS

Many Topics of Importance Will Be Brought Up for Consideration. DEBATE GOOD ROADS Departments for Efficiency and Economy is Popular Subject. (National News Association) COLORADO SPRINGS, Aug. 26. Governors of nearly two score of states were present here today when the five days' session of the governors' conference, what was originally an informal meeting and now has become a valuable institution, opened at the Antlers Hotel. While discussions of many interesting and vital subjects are scheduled, it is expected that conservation, although not on the program, will be one of the principal topics. Governor Ammon of Colorado, who in a sense is acting as host to his colleagues, is deeply interested in the subject, and will bring it up before the conference ends. The western governors hope to interest the eastern chief executives in the subject. Good Roads a Feature. Good roads will be gone into thoroughly. It is said that Governor Foss of Massachusetts will present a resolution asking the conference to indorse the plan of the National Highways association, which urges as a first step to insure federal aid for road building, the passage of a bill by congress creating a national commission to study the question, unite on a plan for road building by the federal government, and make such recommendations to congress as it may deem best. Other subjects on the program for discussion are: "A State Department for Efficiency and Economy," to be presented by Governors Cruce of Oklahoma and Lister of Washington. "Distrust of States Legislatures. The Cause. The Remedy," to be discussed by Governors O'Neal of Alabama, Hunt of Arizona, and Hodges of Kansas. "The Growth of Administrative Commissions," to be presented by Governor Dunne of Illinois. "State Asumption of Nomination and Election Expenses," to be presented by Governors Baldwin of Connecticut, and Carey of Wyoming. Report on a Bill. In addition to the subjects assigned for discussion there will be presented to the Conference a report by the Conference committee on co-operation created at Richmond, Virginia, last year. The resolution creating this committee reads as follows: ' "Resolved, That a committee of nine members of this Conference be appointed by the Conference to prepare a bill to be submitted, after its approval by two-thirds of the Governors, to the legislatures of the several states by the Governors thereof, to provide for the establishment of rural credit banks, and land mortgage and co-operative associations for the purpose of both buying the articles required by the farmer and selling his crops, with provisions sufficiently elastic to meet the conditions of every section and to meet the needs of the people of the United States engaged in agriculture." The members of this committee are Governors O'Neal, of Alabama (Chairman); Mann, of Virginia; Ex-Governor Harmon, of Ohio; Ex-Governor Hadley, of Missouri; Governors McGovern, of Wisconsin; Foss, of Massachusetts; Carey, of Wyoming; Johnson, of California; and Ex-Governor Plaisted, of Maine. The papers on the subject "A State Department of Efficiency and Economy" will be watched with interest. The governors assigned this topic are students of the subject. The states of California, Washington, New York, j Massachusetts, Illinois, and Wisconsin, have departments of efficiency and economy, and much beneficial discussion and many beneficial views and experiences will be forthcoming: The Washington department has done wonderful work and Governor Lister's account of it will be attentively received. Will Furnish Material. Information with respect to what these departments have done in the other states will gice the governors of states in which no such institution has been established a mass of material and authority for future reeommendations It is expected that a great field will be covered under this title. These departments of efficiency J an deconomy generally act in an adisory capacity to the heads of departments, to the Governors and to the legislatures. The governors participating in the presentation and discussion of the subject will advocate many reforms along ! lines of efficiency and economy In the J administration of state affairs, such as the coordination of state work, the t consolidation of commissions, the? more effective apportionment of j school funds a state bnigeU legtsiaj prison labor, a wage scale for state I employes, etc. Discuss Legislatures.
