"FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 1919 On Choosing Candidates The candidates for nomination for member of the Constitutional Con- vention are busy waging their cam- paigns. They are going about it in different ways, to be sure, each after the fashion that he believes will win the, desired votes, but the purpose is thé same. Method only differs. Campaigning ought not to be left entirely to the candidates, particular- ly in an election that is as important to every citizen as this which is to provide the material from which the final choice may be made for the personnel of the body which is to draft a new basic law for the state of Illinois. Every citizen should be as busy determining the best material for the work that is to be done, as the men themselves are to secure nomination, in fact, more so, for the success of the right men means sore] to the individual citizen than his own success means to the individual can- didate. What character of consti- tution is to be drawn by these men who are to be chosen for that duty is a matter of the utmost importance to the people who are to live under that law. Some of the candidates are taking upon their souls the burden of cam- paign promises, pledges to stand for this or that, definitely aligning them- selves under the forms, assuming a position that they will find it. impossible, perhaps, to maintain. The new constitution of the state should be made as simple as such a document may be made. What is left out is quite as important as what is left in. To draw such a document is not a task for small men, men who banner of set re- . are not possessed of vision and capa- city to see things in their relation to other existing or probable conditions. Ang just in proportion as the several candidates realize this necessity and possess this quality they are refrain- ing from seeking to win votes by the process of pre-election promises, promises that they know they will be able to perform only under certain definite conditions. What 'the public should seek to find in the candidates who are to be vot- ed upon in the primaries next month is their general qualification for the work that is to be done. A little man who promises all sorts of reform and Tacks the capacity to make that prom- ise good, is not the man who should be given place in the convention. The quality of a man's capacity is to be measured by what he has al- ready done, by the record that he has made in other activities with which he has been connected. His inten- tion should be measured by the quali- ty of citizenship that he has shown in the community in which he has lived. It is to the past of the men who are standing as candidates for nomination that we should look, not to their promises for the future. The sixth district as a whole wish- es to send the very best men that it can find to represent its people in the convention. To find who is best we must turn the pages of the rec- ords of the past, scan the character of the men as citizens, study the motives that are persuading them to be willing to give their time and energy to this public work, and base our choice upon the results that are Pledges and. promises sound well but they are a poor basis upon which to choose a man for such a task as that which will be perform- ed by the members of the Constitu- tional Convention. HOME ECONGCMY EXPERT ADVISES HOUSEWIVES «Continued frecm Page One) upon to do a lot of additional work merely for the purpose of being kapt busy, she will be encouraged, and she will realize that the reward for her good work is not additional work. Must Be Courteous We must treat our assistants cour- teously and we must appreciate their efforts. If you are working together, I suggest that you do not talk about cleaning, scrubbing or cooking, but talk about something else; but, if you must talk about the housework, talk about it as being something to be done as a pleasure and not some- thing unpleasant. Act human to those who serve you. We need them and we should show that we need them and appreciate them, and if we do we will be repaid by loyalty and faithfulness. We should have our children understand that the maid is mot an inferior pers son, but is some one im the home helping the mother, and the children should be taught to assist and respect the work being done and the helpers doing it.

They should take care of their own closets; keep their clothes and shoes in place; keep their rooms neat, and it would not do them any harm if they had to make their own beds and also occasionally help with the dishes. . Apply Efficiency The war had made us all more ef- ficient than we were and we must apply this efficiency to our homes. The war has so equalized social con- ditions and we must recognize this in our homes. To summarize, I think we will help solve the problem if we: Recognize the importance of the home. efficiently.
