MEDAL FROM EXPOSITION
The House members down at Sal
em have an earlyln-the session de
sire for economy, but wait until the
last afternoon and evening of the
laat day when the omnlbui appropria
tion bill Is up and witness the passing
of that desire.
The (jranaera find that It pays to
take a day off once In awhile to gath
er nround a fine dinner and discuss
their problems Why should not bus
ine-s men find It equally profitable''
