Government Economy.
Says the Washington Post: "With
the close of the present session of
Congress approaching, members already
are congratulating themselves
upon the policy of economy in government
expenditures which they have
put into execution. Leaders of the
House of Representatives started out
with the determination of reducing
estimates by at least $1,250,000,000.
They now claim the saving will
amount to $1,500,000,000.
Estimates submitted by the various
departments aggregated about $5,000,000,000,
which would more than equal
estimated current revenues. In response
to a well-established public
sentiment, as well as to avoid the political
error of creating a deficit, the
leaders cot out their pruning knives
and proceeded to pare the estimates
down to the bone of necessity, with
the result that they now believe appropriations
will be kept close to
$3,500,000,000.
These figures do not include the expense
of soldier bonus legislation
whicf? is expected to be enacted before
the close of the session. Estimates
for that reach about $1,500,000,000,
or the amount which it is
claimed has been saved by pruning

leaders regard the bonus legislation
as an extraordinary expense,
chargable to the war and not to be
charged in with current expenses
even though the cost or a large portion
of it may have to be met during
the next fiscal year.
It is too early to extend congratulations
to Congress upon carrying out
its economical policy, for there is yet
time in which to spoil a very promising
record. After adjournment and
when an accurate statement of the fiscal
legislation is compiled there will
be ample opportunity to give credit
to the members of Congress if they
prove deserving of it. i
There is no doubt that a very strong
sentiment exists among the people in
fav'or of business prudence in voting
appropriations for government expenditures.
Disbursement of enormous
sums during the war has had the effect
of making a million dollars look
like a $2.00 bill to some responsible
government officials who have been infected
with the germ of extravagence.
This must be cured, and the quicker
i the remedy is applied the better it
will be for the taxpayers. Consequently

the end of the session are able to present

Expensive Error.
Errors are the bug-bear of the
printer, and despite every precaution
they creep into the most high-grade
work.
An error that cost two million dollars
occurred a few years ago in the
government printing plant at Washington.
U was all due to a misplaced
comma.
The copy of a particular tariff bill

etc.," were to be admitted free of duty,
the idea being to encourage the culture
of high-grade varieties of fruit
trees and grapevines in this country.
When the bill was printed, "foreign
fruit plants, etc.," read "foreign fruit,
plants, etc.," and as a result oranges,
grapes, lemons bananas, etc., came
into the United States free of duty for
a year.
The error cost the government just
about two million dollars in, revenue.

,
(Editorial from Norwalk, O., Ii

The Chautauqua la the champion a
- - - - - ? Ci
| of neighborhood lire at its Desi.
The Chautauqua appeals to and for *
the whole family. It pulls with fa- ,
tber and mother for the best Interests _
of the children. It glorifies home life .
and Is always safe, sane and conservative.
?
The Chautauqua pays a hundred j t
fold in community betterment In | m
boosting It we proclaim our faith in ' m
all goood things, and we join the f]
forces of progress. It Is the ally of e
the home, the public school, the g
church, the community dub, the Chamber
of Commerce, the fraternal order v
?and every real business factor In the u
town and country. c
The Chautauqua Is a community a
college. If education Is profitable, If f<
culture la desirable. If morals pay, If v
dean entertainment la preferred, If o
progress beats stagnation. If our com- e
munity really cares for the choicest b
thing* the times afford?we must boost 1
the Chautauqua. y
Business Is not altogether a qnes- b
? ? w
tk? of dollars. It Is equally a question
of enlarged community life and *
co-operation?whatever keeps ytrar 9
town on the map. 11
The Chautauqua ts a matter of city ?
and county concern. The racation .

Measuring Sludge.
An ingenious method of measuring
Mm depth of sludge tn deep sedlmeh- |
tattoo tanks Is employed at the sewage
disposal works of Fltcbburg, ?
Mass.. says a Canadian writer. The
measurements are made by means of
a pitcher pump and 28 feet of 1-inch
rubber hose, marked In 1-foot lengths.
The pump Is screwed to a 8-foot plank T
and attached to the base by a union n
coupling. In making measurements 0
I nlank Is Disced across the top of u
a gas vent and the hoee poshed Into a
the tank nntil It la near the supposed v
sludge level. The hose is then lowj
ered an Inch at a time. Between each 0
shift sufficient pumpjpg is done to a
Insure a complete change of water in .
hose. When the sludge level Is reach- t
sd, the pump will raise sludge, llis
length of the hose below the chimney
top is then noted, and as the distance
from top of chimney to bottom of
tank is known it is an easy matter te e
estimate the depth of the sludge.
