' BELTON, May 10.—The domestic
science classes of the Belton high
pchuol made a splendid showing ot
their work this afternoon in the do-
mestic science rooms of the high
school. The display included work in
sewing and culinary.
Sowing; Display.
Work in sewing is begun with a
hand made apron. These aprons
■were all dainty little sewing affairs,
having pockets for thread and other
conveniences. The neat work showed
in the hemming and in the whipping
on of the pretty laces.
Other pieces of lingerie showed
pretty hand embroidery and dainty,
artistic work and designs in the use
of pretty laces and other trimming.
Several middy blouses showed neat
■work. The shirt waists were among

the prettiest display*. The w&lsta
were made in materials from substan-
tial shirtings to the sheerest silks and
other fabrics.
The full dresses would have been &
credit to a professional dressmaker.
The dresses «rrp shown from sheer
white and other fabrics to a wool coat
suit. The finish of the coat suit was
neat, indeed, as was that of all the
work. ^
Miss Dolley Denman made an
ovation in the shirt waist work by
making a real, genuine shirt for her
brother. Doc Denman
The Wardrobe Book.
An interesting feature of the work
of the sewing girls was the designing
of a wardrobe for the year. The
wardrobe was shown in designs in-
cluding dresses, wraps, hats, shoes,
hose and other clothing wanted or
needed. Several of these wardrobes
howed only the simple clothes of the
school girl, w hile others showed a de
sire to enter upon young ladyhood.
One of the simple wardrobes was
planned out at a cost of $36. The
most economical of the older girl*
was a little less than $150, while one
reached almost the $400 mark, and
one went above this value. Most of
the values were from $150 to $1S0.
Erult Cakes, Etc.
One table was devoted to the dis-
play of jellies, preserves and canned
fruits and vegetables. The jellies
were beautiful in co.oring and won-
derfully clear. The canned fruits and
vegetables were also of splendid color
and held their shape bo nicely. Some
of the vegetables were among those
considered hardest to can successfully.
The conserves, using the apple pulp
left from the jelly, with other fruit
seasonings, were fine.
The table showing the bread, pies
and cakes was a most attractive one.
There was shown Graham and white
loaf bread and rolls of several kinds,
ginger bread, several kinds of pies
and custards, chocolate layer, white
loaf and other cakes, salad and gela-
tines. One attractive gelatine was
molded in loaf form and showed lay-
ers of chocolate, strawberry and
white.
Food Value Lesson.
Two tables wore arranged showing
tho food value of different things.
Along one side of one tabic were ar-
ranged Ihe three meals for one day,
for a school girl of over 1 i years of
age, and included food values esti-
mated to the amount of 2,OI>6 calories.
On the other side were the three meals
for a woman engaged in moderate
work, ami of 2,200 calories value.
This bill of fare included: For
breakfast, oatmeal, with rich cream,
poached egg, toast and milk; for
lunch, steak, beans, potatoes, bread
and butter and fruit: for supper
steak, rice, bread and butter and
fruit.
Another table was arranged show-
ing food value of 100 calories value
According to the estimate made of
food needed for each day the differ-
ent articles shown would make about
one-twentieth of thp food needed by
a school girl; one twenty-second for
a woman taking moderate exercise,
one one thirty-fifth for a working
man,
This display showed cheese, choco-
late and butter to be of about same
vaino and to call for only a very small
portion to make 100 calories; an
orange, banana, two rather small ap-
ples and two small potatoes possess
same food value; some seven or eight
prunes and same number of nuts are
of equal food value. Beans and
canned tomatoes showed to allow
greatest amount of bulk for same
amount of food. An e'ng was also
among the things shown to be valued
at the food standard of 100 calories.
Punch and Cake Served.
Visitors were granted a chance to
enjoy some of the work done by the
girls in the delicious punch and cakes
which were served the visitors. A
large number were present during tht
afternoon, in spite of the rather un-
pleasant weather. The work of the
students was given highest praise,
and also the patience and efficiency
of Miss Kohman as instructor.

(Associated Press Dispatch.)
WASHINGTON, May 10.—Debate
on the administration espionage bill,
whoso press censorship and embargo
provlsions'have been the object of bit-
ter aMack for nearly ten days, reached
a point today where loaders were
hopeful a vote can be taken on pas-
sage before tomorrow night's adjourn-
ment. Many speeches nre yet to be
made on the censorship section, but
the senate bound itself today to limit
debate so that no filibuster or dila-
tory tactics can delay the final roll
cali.
Just before adjournment tonight
Senators Cummins and Thomas sug-
gested an amendment to the censor-
ship section greatly modifying the
original language, and It was accepted
by Senator Overman, In charge of the
hill, who said It would go into, the
measure tomorrow. Its adoption may
end the fight over this provision, al-
though Senator Stone announced lie
did not want it accepted and efforts
may be made to eliminate any sort of
censorship from the measure.
Provisions of Amendment.
The amendment provides that In
time of war the president may pre-
scribe and promulgate rules and reg-
ulations "for the purpose of prevent-
ing the disclosure to the public, and
thereby to the enmy, of information
with respect to the movement, num-
bers, description and disposition of
any of the armed forces of the United
States In naval or military operations,
or with res peel to any works Intended
for the fortification and defense of
any place." Wilful violation of the
rules would he punished with a five
i year prison term or $5,000 fine, A
proviso removes members of congress
from operation of the rules.
The original languase of the section
made it a crime to publish or com-
municate Information calculated to be
useful to the enemy.

More About Tin Can Irrigation.
Editor Telegram:
Supplementing: recent article of Mr.
,T. S. Perry relative to sub-Irrigation
by tin can method, 1 wish to say that
tills idea is good and no one need
he ufrudd to practice it. I had oc-
casion about two years ago to em-
ploy this method of irrigation on
tomatoes, and it was a liowllng suc-
cess.
1 would suggest, however, that the
can# be placed on the north side of
the plants to avoid as much sun-
light as possible, and filled about
half full of dirt, as my experience
taught me that the roots quickly
rtach the source of irrigation and
considerable damage can accrue by
reason of the heat that reaches the
roots through the opening.
