lease of a navy base on the Gulf of For seca These rights and American lnrestments, Mr Coolldge asserted, placed a peculiar responsibility on the United States In Central America While disclaiming any desire of intervention In their internal affairs, the President declared that the stability, prosperity, and Independence af the Central American republics can never be a matter of indifference to us,

United States Senator Borah, chairman of the committee, was unconvinced and mate a long speech attacking the administrations policy It was predicted in Washington, however, that the mes sage and Mr Kelloggs statement would serve to bring a majority of congress to the support of the President In the course he is pursuing The house committee on foreign affairs also undertook an examination of the situation but spent much of its time in partisan squabbling Meanwhile efforts were being made in Nicaragua to bring about peace Leading liberals proposed a confer ence and the conservatives seemed

The Broadcasting Studios SIMPLICITY OF RADIO By POWEL CROSLEY, JR ir nr In the early days of broadcasting the artists were required to perform In rooms vfcich were a maze of colls, wires and electrical devices There wis no thought of providing special rooms, removed from the radio equipment, for the artists use Today, wever, every effort is made to give rtormers a suitable environment Studios are provided fitted with the most elaborate hangings and furniture Many of them could be aptly described ai palatial Another Big departure of modern broadcasting is In locating the studio Where It will be most convenient of access to the artists and visitors A tew year ago it was necessary to go to the radio station In order to broadeast Often stations were In outof theway places, Inconvenient to get to Now the studios are often located in a downtown hotel, or at some other central point, while the station may be twentyfive miles or more from the city The studios and station are con nected by telephone wires, and the program Is sent over these wires from the studio to the station This is what Unknown as remote control broadcasting The object of locating the radio station so far from town is so that it will not interfere with local listeners who wish to receive programs far distant stations or special occasions, such as im t lectures, church services, conr i vcv Rules That Would Aid in Radio Broadcasting Factors contributing to successful radio broadcasting are outlined In a Hat of studio rules which are printed In Radio Broadcast Magazine These rales, according to the magazine, have now bees put in force at station KOA, and there are several other station where they might quite well be ap plied to advantage Programs start on the minute Coughing, sneezing, clearing the throat, scraping the ttt and other disturbances In the studios, are annoying to listeners The microphone is so sensitive that the slightest commotion may be transmitted to the unseen audience Therefore, when the annooncer calls, quiet everybody kind ly comply H Do not beginaiPiifc rr playing un til the unVJuncer gives the signal Unless you have memorized your music, be prepared with an extra copy, as yon do not stand near the piano when singing Do not be perturbed if the ansjonncer motions for you to move nearer thsPThfcrophone, or withdraw, while singing Very loud singing or playing is objectionable as It detracts from sueeessful broadcasting, often producing a shattered effect The best choral ef, fecta are obtained when each person tings In a subdued manner To pianists Too much loud pedal polls the rendition The top of the piano should be left down as the beet broadcasting is accomplished when the instrument is dosed Why We Sacrifice Sleep to Reach the Outside Why do we intelligent mortals sacrifice oar sleep to tone into some far Hetant station during the mystic hoars after midnight7 The motivating force nndocbtedly is the same that holds us enthralled when reading a fantastic ttjtttr story which we know Is but 4 drtmm wraiths of some authors tattfioatiocfn other words our love for the mysterious, the distant, the un,TBW dtffrM In

tMSipfdate jNals this way and that, tQOttf to captor tiny electrical ri certs, etc, arrangements are often made to pick up the performance directly in the hall or auditorium where It takes place Then it Is sent ovter telephone lines to the radio station, as before Telephone companies in ths large cities maintain special squads of men assigned to remote control broadcasting, work It is their duty to ar range for transmitting the programs over the telephone wires and to operate the necessary equipment The regular, telephone lines are used, but special amplifiers must be provided at one or more points to Insure proper reproduction of the sound at the broad casting station In designing the broadcasting studios it Is vitally important to secure the proper acoustic, or sounding, qualities One who has listened to a con cert in an almost empty auditorium, and who has heard other performances in the same auditorium when It was crowded, will appreciate the influence that reverberation, or echo effects, have on rhe quality of music In an empty auditorium a speakers voice sounds hollow The sounds run to gether, giving a sort of mushy effect that makes It hard to understand his words Just so, unless broadcasting studios are very carefully designed, the sound of performers will be distorted unpleasantly, To preserve the natural tone and quality of the voice and Instruments, heavy draplngs are used, and a thick, soft carpet is provided underfoot t It Is necessary to prevent outside sounds from entering the studios Tills can be done by using double windows and thick walls with air spaces In them All extraneous sounds, such as those caused by passing trolley cars, automobiles, etc, must be excluded Lining the walls with felt or cork helps to keep out these noises Cvpyrlffbt by W O Chapman L man Wlmpole, the woman hater, strode down the street of Tuxtree, a new benignity in his manner, a new hat on his head, and a flower in his buttonhole , He went toward the station, and pres ently ascended the hill again beside a very pretty young woman, who looked a little selfconscious under the scrutiny of the neighbors Going daffy T inquired the assistant No, I guess hes advertised so much in business, with such success, I that he thinks he can get results the i same way in his domestic arrange ments j Old man Wlmpole, who had never i married, had, in fact, scandalized the neighbors by advertising that he wished to adopt a daughter The news had been published In surrounding cities, and, as a result, numerous young women had climbed the hill, to retire baffled in their quest The quest was worth while, for old man Wlmpole was worth two hundred thousand Finally the choice settled upon a Miss Higginson, who remained just a week The next was a Miss Gray, who stayed thirteen days Miss Fellows, her successor, lasted a month and a half, and had expressed the opinion to Mr Stiles, only the day before leaving, that she thought her Job was secure Why old man Wlmpole had detached three successive females from his household he proceeded to explain to Amelia Darragh, who, all agreed as she ascended the hill, was the best looking and the most ladylike of the lot Sit down, daughter, said old man Wlmpole as they entered his parlor, about which the girl cast an approving glance I advertised for a daugh ter whod take care of me when 1 grow old, having learned to love me Yes, father inquired Miss Amelia, blandly and old man Wlmpole looked at her in something of admiration Miss Amelia had already grasped the psychological nature of the situation He admired clever young women Im a rich man, but Im not a happy man, confessed old man Wlmpole 1 brought up a nephewJim Wlmpole, by name I took him from the institution where he had been put when his mother followed his father to the grave I reared him And he bit the hand that reared him Miss Amelia remained perfectly sident Instead of expressing sympathy, and old man Wlmpole nodded approvingly Amelia Darragh, with her black eyes and red cheeks, her atmosphere at once demure and keen, had pleased him the moment she came from Tipton to answer his advertisement He bit the hand that reared him, continued old man Wlmpole That was two years ago, after he came back from college I am a man who insists on obedience Not that Im hard But my sonhe was a son to mewent and married a hussy from heaven knows where, without saying a word to me They telegraphed to me for forgiveness 1 wired back not to show their faces In Tuxtree, or Id have them arrested Not that I could have done o But It scared them Thats the port of man 1 am Mies Amelia opened her lips as if to spak and then closed them again Old man Wlmpole admired that, too Few women can do It I wanted someone to take care of me I advertised for a daughter First woman that came along thought T wanted a wife Instead Wanted to cinch my money I warned her But she would make love to me Told me I was a handsome old man That settled her hash Daughter Number Two held out wo weeks till I caught her reading the dummy will Id put in the desk, leaving all my money to the Cats and Dogs Friendly and Benevolent society Then she broke loose Asked me if I knew the happiness of matrimony That fixed her She went Daughter Number Three was h best of the crowd Sort of sharptem pered I can stand for a nattfral in firmity, as long as Its natural Cant stand for fakes What started me thinking was when T told her her back ion due in great part to the discovery I hair was working loose, and if she made by me In 1895, of the effect of didnt take care shed

the Vermont farmer think of Chicago, Detroit, Cincinnati or, New Orleans as so many dots on the, map He has some knowledge of thee cities He has heard them and knows the kind of entertainment the citizens of these places prefer So, too, the western rancher takes nightly visits to the metropolises of the nation, sitting with closed eyes, an Invisible but aural part of an audience to some distant point And the enjoyment of this latest scientific achievement does not necessitate a knowledge of unknown powers Another romance of todayme chanical production methodshas brought the radio

tsklng off her hat Ill go and fix things in the kitchen You can smoke til over the hoise f What dyou mean stammered old man Wlmpole What I say I always mean that replied Miss A melts He learned what

Very, candidly Amelia told him that the Job was no sinecure, that tf he wasnt satisfied he could look for somebody else, and that if he did he wouldnt get anybody who had her in terest In him Old man Wlmpole agreed But he laid traps for her He watched her narrowly He spoke one evening about the Joys of matrimony, and when Miss Amelia cut him short he looked half pleased and half perplexed It was plain that old man Wlmpole had met his match It was about this time that the village began to note a curious change in old man Wlmpole He, who bad held his former daughters under, had harried and driven them, so that it was clear whichever one stayed, she would have more than a servants dutieshe, old man Wlmpole, knuckled under to Miss Amelia The climax came when the rates collector, hap pening In, perceived old man Wlmpole upon his knee, meekly lacing Miss Amelias shoe Hell marry her Shes got him, the minx said the druggists wife to her husband So old man Wlmpole thought Desperately, because he knew that the feminine sex Is pastmaster in wiles, he admitted defeat He could not do without Miss Amelia he could not do with her He told her so Moreover, he told her so one evening, when they were in the garden, and there was a moon That shows how far old man Wlmpole was gone Amelia, he said, I dont want you for a daughter any more I want you to be my wife Amelia, who had thrust her arm through his In the daughterly fashion, withdrew it indignantly Father, how dare you lay such a trap for me she exclaimed You know very well you advertised for a daughter, not for a wife, and you know what you said to me as soon as I got Inside the house But this Is real I love you, Amelia You want to get rid of me You think Im going to do what the others did I dont intend to Amelia Listen to me shouted old man Wlmpole, so that he was over heard in the street by the curious pedestrians I love you Never mind what I said I want to marry you Do you understand I want you to b my wife I dont want a daughter any more Amelia looked at him with a sort of affectionate glance Then, father, she said, Im sorry to say that It is Impossible In fact, I am married already What thundered old man Wlmpole You have been deceiving me all along In what way, father Pretending to be a single girl I beg your pardon, father returned Amelia 1 have never stated whether I was married or not It was you who tacked the Miss to my name Yes, I am married And happily married And how have I deceived you Yonyouyou didnt tell me stammered the disillusioned old man Why should It be deceiving you even If 1 didnt Cant a daughter get married In fact, my husband wants me back In a few days, unlessunlesg you want us both to come and live with you, said Amelia kindly Old man Wlmpole glared at her What is your true name Let me know who you are anyway he said Mrs Jim Wlmpole, said Amelia softly Old man Wlmpole Jumped a foot into the air What he yelled It was a putup Job, thenyou and that scoundrel, Jim Amelia nodded, and suddenly two tears trickled down her cheeks Father, she pleaded, forgive us both We love each other, and we both love you And, If you will, youyou shall have back your old pipe And

they give the idea of roominess and comfort inside Here is pictured an unusually good design of this type of home The se vere lines of the true colonial have been broken by Hie addition of an oien porch with a balcony above at one end of the house The graceful curve of the porch roof which is supported by colonial pillars and the fan shaped window above the door mark this home us n colonial The exterior balance is retained in the interior The entrance door leads into, a central hall, at one side of which is the living room and at the other is the dining room Thus both are front rooms and corner rooms, which means plenty of light and ven tilation Besides the kitchen there is a large breakfast room adjoining it at the back with a washroom at the rear The advantages of this arrangement are that there are many times when meals may be served in the breakfast room without the necessity of going to the front of the, house Upstairs there are four bedrooms, 11 corner rooms, and the bathroom These rooms open off a central hall, with the bathroom at the front end of ft, Plenty of closet space is allowed for each room The dimensions of the house are 35 by 24 feet, which Is not a large house But the rectangular shape of the house permits the use of every Inch of rpom in It The living room is 13 by 17 feet, which Is a good size, and at one end is a large open fireplace Double doors open from this room to the porch The dining whom Is 13 by 12 feet Each one of the bedrooms is 10 by 13 feet The house Is of frame construction set on a concrete foundation This gives a basement

siyn painter, a Fatty Arbuckiesized elevator boy, a girl fascinated by an automatic iceproducing machine, an elderly and Innocent New Jersey business mun of established honesty and several as yet unidentified persons The elevator boy, who admits, according to the police, that he got 100 out of the 148,000 is held In the Tombs on a forgery charge The girl is being detained as a material witness William Roedel, the elevator operator, is what detectives call a sap or sucker He was not, according to the charge against him, unaware of the plot But be was so naive that he got but a fraction of his share of the loot The respectable business man was E P Ford, sixtyfour years old Mr Ford knew nothing of the plot, and when be finally became suspicious, notified the authorities The sign painter, whose name Is either un known or being withheld, was the master mind in a scheme as cleire as any that clever criminals have yet evolved Nancy Klrby, the girl interested in refrigeration, was merely Roedels sweetheart The largest, if not the chief, character in the plot, was RoedeL The elevator boy had been an object of pride, if also of some embarrassment, at the Capitol theater on Broadway Once he had been a slender chap, but the ease of his life caused him to grow rapidly Hird eight years ago, he was becoming so large that passjpn gers in the building began to complain that no one else could get into his elevator He weighed 256 pounds The Moredall Realty corporation , runs the Capitol theater One of its rules has been never to discharge an employee who was faithfully performing his duties Even the most exacting official could not complain that Roedel was doing anything else If he was growing corpulent It was an act of God and certainly not a cause for discharge There were no other places vacant in the theater and he could not be transferred So Roedel continued operating the levator, even if casualty inspectors making their periodical examinations of the machinery looked at him with a suspicious eye and intimated that they were going to reduce the number of persons legally permissible as long as he continued to operate the hoist Fattyso he was called Jby his phrasemaking fellow workerswas paid 28 a week and seemed contented Liked Kit Job His salai Realty corporation All that he was to do, in return for 15,000, was to admit them to the offices of the

28aweek jlevator pusher With fifteen grttmf you can have a swell time Havent you got a girl that can help you have a good time The picture was too alluring for Roedel, us he thought of the luxury loving Nancy Klrby, and he gave in He closed his eyes The sign painter and his associates went Into the Moredall Realty corporation offices one night, got out the companys check book and wrote two checkseach for 70,500 They used the special machine b which authentic checks of the company are identified, handed Roedel 1,500 in part payment of his share and departed Hire an Executive Then mey left Manhattan and took up headquarters In Newark Their first step there was to Insert an advertisement in a newspaper saying that they wanted an executive to operate an office This was In the name of the Fovco Products company Mr Ford answered their advertisement and agreed to a salary of 150 a week and a share of the profits He was told to open offices in the Military Park building in Newark, engage stenographic help and prepare for a rush of business One of his supposed employers called himself Howard P Dwyer and the other went by the name of Graham Soon afterward the two men came in with checks that they wished to deposit They told Ford to open an account, and he did so, in his own name, at the National Newark and Essex Banking company He was told to deposit two checks, each for 76,500 each drawn on the Equitable Trust company of New York, and each apparently signed by the Moredall Realty corporation Dwyer and Graham explained they were the profits from a real estate deal Ford deposited the checks A few days later the two business men breezed in smoking big cigars Ford had been slightly puzzled by the fact that he had been asked to do nothing at all But hlsemployers explained all this by saying that a big deal, which ,was to start everything, was hanging fire They told him to draw 68,500 In cash This he did The next day they said to draw 79,500 additional, leaving 5,000 on deposit Ford also did this From then on, for almost a week Ford sat in his office and waited for de velopments In Washington Ha bocame suspicious that his employers were not entirely

quality Bowever, there are many factors that Influence the market value of eggs, most of which are within the control of the producer and dealer of eggs Eggs are not bought and sold by the pound, but the size of the eggs causes considerable difference la their value Extras must weigh 40 pounds net per case of 30 dosen This la an average of slightly over two ounces per egg Extra firsts must weigh 44 pounds per case, The proper selection of breeding stock Is undoubtedly the biggest factor In securing eggs of good size, although the also Is Influenced to some extent by proper feeding Cleanliness has an Important Influence on the value of eggs Dirty eggs deteriorate more rapidly than clean eggs, do not present as pleasant an appearance, are not fit for storage, and, therefore, do not sell for as nigh a price as eggs that are clean Dirty eggs may be largely eliminated by pro viding plenty of dean nests which are well supplied with clean Utter On rainy days it may be helpful to keep the hens

only when all Is not well in poultrydom Hens, like human beings, are al most all gery temperamental The singing of a hen mast not be confused with clucking Biddys song starts softly, proceeds without break for as long as breath will alttw, and I T often endstmrMgUfT nasal Intonation If the hen finds no suitable place to lay, she sings when all the nests are full and she cant find one, she sings Song gives vent to her feelings if hunger is troubling her, or thirst She sings in strange surroundings like the small boy sent on an errand in the darfc Worry and shyness also bring song 8be tries by singing to make herself look brave and at home at times when her selfassurance has been shaken Pouitrymen who want to keep their flocks In perfect contentment will keep them from singing Rations Fed to Layers Are Lacking in Protein During recent experiments at the Nebraska Agricultural college, It was foundthat rations fed to laying hens were commonly lacking in some form of complete protein like meat meal, skim milk, tankage, dried buttermilk, or liquid buttermilk An addition of six pounds of highgrade tankage to a typical cornbelt ration increased the egg production from 59 in the check pen to 183 eggs per hen In the tankagefed lot Skim milk or buttermilk, when available at all times, may take the place of meat meal or tankage In the mash mixture, but it Is necessary that each ben consume about 110 pounds of milk in a year In order to get the equivalent protein furnished by six pounds of tankage Separate Breeding Pen Many seem to have acquired the We that keeping a separate breeding pen means a considerable expense and much extra labor for the farmer This is not the case or if there are such eases It is unnecessary Maintaining a breeding pen simply means that the best birds In the flock are selected and placed by themselves during the breeding season The breeding pen fur nishes eggs for batching during the hatching season This means that the chicks will be much

name ready to nae And oo different occasions he had traveled, aa the police amy, under each of his names In one etty he assumed the name of Jim Jones and In another the name of Tom Smith Bis captors were fairly familiar with aia numerous aliases, and the mention of any one of them recalled the picture of a short, thick fellow with s long nose and a pair of satO, fishy eyes A detective had written the aliases on a piece of paper After studying them a moment he turned to the prisoner and asked gruffly Which of these names ia your right oner The crook examined the list Intently and appeared puzzled Blest if I know, be replied with a smile You see, he added apologetically, Tve been trayeHn under these here names so long that Tve dean forgot my right name But it will come to me after a bit, and sure enough he soon recalled it The name, however, was not among the aliases Would Like to Forget I think this fellow, said a detective, was Just pretending he did not remember his name Indeed, he would like to forget it if he could, because he has been tried and convicted under that name for more offenses than he can remember He ia, like moat experienced crooks, a maaquerader Ail crooks are masqueradera, in a sense, and go through life wearing a mask After being initiated into the criminal fraternity the crook rtsolves to cast aside his own name and take some other one His main reason for doing this Is quite obvious he desires to conceal his Identity as much as possible Only a fool, he argues, would use his own name in criminal operations What a sweet thing it would be for the cops if every criminal used his right name when he went adventuring Likewise, he has other reasons for not traveling under his own name Though he may have fallen from grace, he has qualms about using a family name that heretofore has not been dragged in the mud He does not care for himself, but be does not want to bring disgrace on his father and mother, who are poor but respectable Why drag them into his troubles He decides to take a name, and while he la a criminal that name will suffice for his purpose If he is caught no one will associate John Doe with John Smith He will be arrested as John Doe, tried as John Doe and, if convicted and sentenced, be will go to the pen as John Doe, and no great harm will be done to anyone except to himself 8ure to Find Him Out He does not pause to consider that no matter how artfully he may try to conceal his real identity, the police will find him out They will investigate his past, and when they once begin such an investigation they will be pretty sure to dig up a lot of knowledge concerning himself and his antecedents After being in the game a while the crook finds that having only one alias is Insufficient He discovers the name he has been using Is becoming entirely too familiarespecially to his enemies, the cops If you are a crook, it does not pay to advertise accordingly, he assumes another name and lays aside the first alias until people begin to forget It In time the second alias out lives its purpose and it becomes necessary to take a third name And this explains why criminals frequently have several aliases All of these aliases he finds useful It may not be convenient to use the name of Jim Jones in New Tork, but the name may do very well In another city in which he is unknown He would prefer, many times, not to have a name at all but since everybody must follow the custom and have a name, be must have one Therefore he carries in his head several aliases, any one of which he may assume at a moments notice These names mean a lot to him Some of them recall pleasant memories others recall scenes that he would much prefer to forget He remembers what Shakespeare said about calling a rose by any other name and it would smell as sweet Though he wonld like to believe this, he knows the cops have a long memory for names No matter how frequently he changes his name, the cops seem to be able to discover him and drag him from obscurity Freak Chickens Subject of Study by Zoologist Philadelphia Chickens with two wings and four legs and even with four wings and four legs, and a duckling equally strangely

do or abstain from doing tome act For instance, an agreement or contract of sale creates a legal tie be tween the two parties, the seller being obliged to deliver the thing sold and warrant It, and the buyer beln obliged to pay the price In ordinary use obligation has a different meaning from right A person is obliged to do that which he can be competed by law to do, but a right commonly means something that one can compel others to do For instance, It would not be correct to say that a landowner has a right to build half the line fence Be is obligedunder legal obligation to build half of such fence, and he has the right to compel the adjoining owner to fulfill his obligation sad build the other hall Generally speaking, obligation and right are the opposite ends of the legal tie, the obliga tion of one party being the right of the other The noun, obligation, and the verb, obligate, are from the Latin verb, oblige, X bind Fenton High School basket bail team defeated Brighton in a

to any such law which is entirely unnecessary and is opposed to all Christian opposed to all Christian precepts This bill is the result of the hysteria caused by the so called crime wave in the cities of this country since the World war and is a result of a breakdown and lack unity in the law enforcing bodies in the large congested districts, the wholesale issue of paroles and politics In the cities the prosecuting attorney and his assistants are usually green inexperienced lawyers and are opposed by the best lawyers in the land drawn to the practise of criminal law by fat fees The result is the states lawyer is usually outclassed by the criminals attorney If he should happen to be convicted the legal fratern ity friendly to them is at once set to work to get him admitted to parole and

lead, holding it until near the end of the second quarter when Pinckney tied it up by means of some good basket shooting by Reason Swarthout and Campbell After that they were never headed although the Brighton team made a strong spurt to regain the lead and scored twelve points in the last two quarters they were outplayed by the home team Roy Reason playing his first game of basket ball took to the new pastime like a duck does to water and scored 11 points in his debut, his long reach proving a valuable asset Swarthout made 19 points some of which were long difficult shots and Campbell 7 Miller

aw 4ran ts Toronto, OutFound guilty on 16 counts of forgery, Percy D Ham, one of the socially elect of Toronto, was sentenced to seven years In the penitentiary So closet one of the most amazing frauds In the history of finance tn Canada Ham, a quiet, unassuming young gentleman of artistic tastes, was a junior clerk In a government office With this modest background and with no financial capital, he launched a scheme of operations of staggering propor tions In a period of about two years he negotiated sales and purchases of bonds amounting, according to the court records, to more than 20,000000 Ham, according to his counsel, came out of the maze of purchases and sales without a Ivcent piece for him self, although losses sustained by brokers and friends as fa as they were traced, amounted to B4S,000 Ham had been a precocious child To satisfy an adventurous longing counsel said, the young clerk had launched out In the hope of demonstrating that he was not the Insignificant clerk he In reality was Credulity of Victima Amazing The credulity with which his campaign was accepted by a hardheaded financial world was one bf the most amazing features of the case Bond purchases, running as they did Into millions a month, must Inevitably attract attention In a market as small as this one Instead of being regarded with suspicion Ham commanded respect Popeyed nVtlons sprang up crediting him with being the agent of governments and of financial syndicates planning farreaching coups Ham hegan his operations on a small and evidently experimental basis His first purchase was of only a few thousand dollars of government bondspractically all his transactions were In government bonds His capital did not exceed a few thousand cents, but he negotiated the purchase this way Ham said he was ncting for an outoftown friend, nnd gave his personal check to he held by the brokers nntll the bonds were delivered to his friend, who would immediately ad vance payment Though bonds are sold cash on delivery, Hams proposal was accepted The credit of his check for the few days requested was accepted by brokers who knew him, or his father, or his friends Ham covered the transaction within the time specified by reselling the bonds through another firm Financial Pyramid Erected The operation waB repeated ove and over again on an everIncreasing scale, After each transaction Ham came to be regarded as an even more desir able client But there was never any profit for Ham Every transaction showed a loss of at least the two commissions for buying and selling, and often a fractional loss In addition In the market price, the weight of the offerings being sufficient to depress the price on a narrow market There is no evidence that Ham at any time attempted to use his credit or the securities which were temporarily in his possession for speculating purposes Playing the mafket for an advance or a decline did not seem to fall within his scheme of things Neither Is there any evidence that he planned at any time to abscond, although in the later phases of bis adventure he must have been In possession at times of enormous quantities of negotiable securities Difficulties developed for Ham as his operations pyramided and the total of his losses mounted The credit of his personal checks was no longer suf ficient to finance his harebrained strategy Resort to Forgery These difficulties he met by forgery, selecting two prominent citizensone John Gleeson, an Ottawa capitalist, and Rev, William Beattle, a London clergyman with wealthy relatives and attaching their names to a series of notes, which he used as collateral or o t b t r Irrlttttaa 1 M tuapit ratftr feat Mag eaotfarUac rtUtf A U tart Sto, aO rO aaflaaatat,SYOxr ticura oiletTrio ample He stated that these gentlemen had selected him as their confidential agent Beattle, he said, was under special obligation to him for having saved hie young son from drowning He Insisted that the nature of their plans was such that the men must remain In the background and that they could not be communicated with di rectly In one case, under pressure, he produced a letter, with Gleesons name forged, to substantiate the note Five notes, totaling 500,000, purporting to have been signed by Gleeson and Beattle were produced and used by Ham These he used fn two ways He deposited them with bro kers as collateral But the crudest feature of his operations was when he used these notes to secure ad vances of cash and securities from private Individuals The individuals were friends of his or of his family In case of one lady, a widow, he secured advances amounting to 200,000, which represented most of her capital Exposure of the Fraud Exposure curae when one broker communicated directly with Gleeson, the supposed backer of huge transactions Like a bombshell it developed that Gleeson knew nothing of Ham and had signed no note Ham was summoned to the office of one of the largest bond houses in To ronto and given the third degree He still insisted that he couldmake good his commitments and was given a few hours to do so That afternoon he was discovered in the kitchen of his home, with the gas turned on and suffering from asphyxiation, which a short sojourn in the hospital cleared up Where the 648,000 that was lost went to was not satisfactorily divulged by the trial A substantial sum went to brokers as commissions CH 3 Tr to Join Grandfather ViennaEven children hare been affected by the ntelde epidemic in Austria Threeyearold Helll Hamp was found behind the cupboard the other day

medicine, , that a feeder full of mash In the hen Dry Mash Recommended for WinterLaying Hens Dry mash has been so widely recommended for laying hens that some TURPQ team lijaiasuMaTr tOYMISUrTKRPROM EH so he made a mixture of sugar, water and flavoring extract This he gave to the little girl with her medicine and she liked It so well that the doctor was persuaded after her recovery to prepare more of the delightful concoction with the medicine omitted He called the preparation candy And thats how the popular confection originatedThrift Magazine Planning an Evangelistic Crusade house is all that is necessary to make the hens lay They have given the hens all the scratch grain they could eat, and then wondered why the hens did not eat the mash that Is always before them When nens are given their choice of grain and mash they will eat the grain but if they get only a limited amount of scratch grain, they will complete their fill at the mash hopper This is the Ideal ration and the one that builds up egg production, according to the University of Nebraska On the farm where corn is lying around, the flocks should be kept In the house during the coming winter months and forced to eat the dry mash in addition to the scratch grain supplied It Keeping the hens in a warm, clean house will help maintain the egg production at a higher level than if they are allowed to run out in the

hard to describe Fringed Gentian is loved by many and the family has always been popular The ends are fringed and the fringe ends of those flowers are simply loved by people At night they close up their petals, hiding their pretty faces from view as they sleep, Just as the birds keep their heads under their wings at night There are members of the Fringed Gentian family known as the Smaller Fringed Gentians and the Stiff Gentians But fringed Gentian, of which I am speaking, yoo will find in the moist, quiet woods Fringed Gentian lores the life of the woods It is so peaceful, and so beautiful It Is the Ideal place, they think, in which to live, though sometimes they likethe meadows, too, especially where the meadows are near streams and are somewhat moist For Fringed Gentian likes water as we do, only we prefer salty water to fresh water Fringed Gentian shows Its pretty bead from out green leave which have kept it hidden until It is time for it to be out I cannot help loving and talking about my beautiful relative, tool Then there is the Closed Blue or Blind Gentian They are all fond of darker blue in their costumes And you find clusters of them, all tightly closed, grouped together between leaves You cant mistake them for they are all closed and so they have this family name which Is really very fitting They, too, like moisture and dampness And you will be very apt to find them if you look for them in damp thickets Then there are the relatives of Closed Blue Gentianthe Soapwort Gentians, the Yellowish Gentian and the Bog Gentian, which has very narrow leaves But I advise you to look hardest for Fringed Gentian, for though they say I wear a pretty pink frock and though I look bright and pleasant Fringed Gentian is a very unusual flower They say it is nice that I grow where there isnt so very much color Just as I think It is nice of Butterfly Weed to prow where fields are dry and where many flowers cannot stand the dryness Butterfly Weed can and so it does that, i do not understand Butterfly Weed myself I could not stand It in dry fields And if a flower cant stand It, then it is sad For a flower then has to droop A flower isnt supposed to lie down when It Is weary, and so it chooses a place In which it can be happy and cheery Butterfly Weed also grows along roadsides, not minding the dust at all And Butterfly Weed is Justus gayly dressed as can be f Why should I wear my old duds Butterfly Weed seems to say I want to look my best Isnt that only nat ural And Im not going to be so fussy about every little bit of dust that Im not willing to wear something bright and pretty So Butterfly Weed wears bright, bright orange So many little clusters or so many little orange flowers are upon Butterfly Weed And now Im going to

Commander of the Olympic, Was Already Frve Years at Sea T THE age of twentyone I was sailing on the threemaster, squarerigger bark Balaclava, on which I had shipped as an apprentice when I was seventeen I stayed with the Balaclava five years and then got a Job with a well known shipping firm of Liverpool, as second mate on the funniest named bark I have ever known Her name was Khlnijeewoodowjee She was a squarerigger, too She carried a crew of thirty men, the toughest lot that ever yanked a halyard It took them weeks to get the pronunciation of the ships name right And when some of the boys got ashore they soon were in quite a fix trying to get over the vowels and consonants of Khimjeewoodowjee After a while, however, when wed hear some strange noises coming from shore we knew some man was looking for the Khimjeewoodowjee and wed go to his rescueCapt Frank B Howarth TODAYCaptain Howarth has retired as commander of the Olympic, one of the worlds great ships, having been on the sea 44 years, and 30 In the service of the White Star line by McClure Newspaper Syndicate CTHE WHY of SUPERSTITIONS BBMMMaPSBBSHSSSMSSMSSSSBBSaSBSSBkiiaiBBfSBSSBSaSaSjSSBSaBBBBBlSaK By H IRVINQ KINQ HAIR IN BRIDES DRESS oNervous Systems Vary It Is Inferred that the lowest forms of animal life have very little capacity for feeling They do not have the nervous system to convey feeling, or the brain to realise it All pain is, of course, in the perception of it Bat as animals approach the higher forma, they are acutely sensitive to pain and have the nervous equipment to record their feeling and to govern their actions accordingly They have the power of understanding, which accounts for their aversioflfto the repetition of painful or other distasteful experiences Some students of animal psychology, notably Hubbard In his study of wild animai life in Africa, attribute most of the socalled Instinctive behavior of animal t an orderly process of thought V V N v A MONG the many superstitions concerning marriage is one which says that if an unmarried woman sews one of her hairs into the seam of a brides dress that maiden will secure a husband within a year This superstition Is of the sanrenature as the one relating to the brides bouquet, and depends upon contagious magic It has been explained how closely and definitely the ancients conceived the hair to be bound up with the spiritual and physical being of the individual Even when severed it was a part of himself, or herself By con tagious magic, of course, the brides dress comes to partake of the person ality of the bride When the bride is married an intimate association is sewn in the seam of the wedding dress Sympathetic magic takes its course and the young woman who owns the hair becomes inocenlated with the marriage vims The lim itation of within one year for it to take effect is purely arbitrary but perhaps the ancients thought the magic ought to work within that period If it worked at all We must remember that the ancients did not regard sympathetic magic as magic as we understand the word, but as a scl entlflcN factas did Sir Kenelm DIgby and his followers as late as the middle of the

case of a bishop or some very distinguished member of the clergy All women, too, both old and young, are presented to the President of the United States The law of courtesy demands that a woman shall say whether or not she wishes to make a mans aqualntance It is the mans privilege to seek the acquaintance of a woman, and her pre rogative to consent or not as she pleases The form of Introduction 1st Mrs Dalton, may I present Mr Ball If Mrs Dalton Is the hostess, and Mr Ball has been brought to her house by a mutual friend, she offers her hand to him or not as she pleases, Mrs Dalton, when Mr Ball is pre sented, will smile and if he stands beside her for a moment where she is talking with others, include him In the conversation If she is seated at the tea table, she will not rise, but she will smile cordially and ask Mm, perhaps, how he takes his tea Mr Ball, when presented to Mrs Dalton, should bow and say, Im very happy to meet you, Mrs Dalton, or It was good of you to let me come, Mrs Dalton, or Ive wanted to know you, Mrs Dalton, for a long time1 vHe will not say, Delighted to know you, or Pleased to meet you, if he knows better Such expressions are provincial Indeed, and are not in good taste The general reply to an Introduction, however, is simply, How do you do Do not omit the name of the one introduced, no matter how young the person presented may be To do this leaves the one to whom the introduction is made, in Ignorance of whom he may be addressing An informal method of Introducing two women or two men is to say Mrs Wallace, do you know Mrs Tames or Mrs James, have you met Mr Wallace In presenting Mr Wallace to Mrs, James, one may say, Mrs James, have you met Mr Wallace But one may not say, Mr Wallace, have you met Mrs James That would be conferring the favor of the introduction on the lady, which is not proper It is the man who Is favored To take a woman to a man to be introduced would be unpardonable One may ask a man If he would like to be presented to a certain lady, and then take him to her And one may ask a woman If a man may be presented, but one may not ask a wwman if she would like to be presented to a man, unless to one who is very distinguished and Important A younger woman should always be presented to an older an unmarried to a married woman, unless it happens to be a very young mrfrrted woman and a single woman much

Illinois Navy Controversy By EDWARD W PICKARD F RANK L SMITH, senatordesignate from Illinois, will not be permitted to take his seat In the United States senate if the plan agreed upon by apparently a great majority of the senators Is carried out When and If he presents his credentials, they are to be referred to the committee on privileges and elections, and whatever may be the report of that committee on his qualifications, It seems certain that he will be excluded on the ground that he Is disqualified for an office of public trust by his acceptance of money from the public utility magnates, whose properties were subject to the regulation of the Illinois com merce commission, of which he at the time was chairman This program was adopted after the senate had heard a long speech from McKellar of Tennessee, Democrat, vehemently demanding the exclusion of Smith Borah, Deneen and soim others Indicated an intention of con tending that Smith should be permit ted to take the oath pending the u vestigatlon of his qualifications Tnlwould permit him to defend himself before the senate, and It was said h was prepared to do this partly b telling the sources of Republican cam palgn funds in 1024 and arguing tha he Is no more disqualified for publi office than Is President Coolldge C ONGRESSIONAL advocates of i bigger navy continued their effort toward that end during the week, bu the President stood so firmly on hi platform of economy that their ult1 mate defeat was predicted The thought Mr Coolldge had been forcer to modify his program when Rep re sentative Tilson, Republican floo leader, Introduced an amendment t the pending naval supply bill for ai appropriation for the construction of the three unbuilt light cruisers authorized in 1924 But the President im mediately wrote a letter to Representative French declaring that his attitude advising against any construction other than the completion of the five 1924 cruisers now under way, pending the outcome of negotiations for another limitation of arma ment conference, remains unchanged Representative Britten of Illinois, who had Introduced an amendment for the elevation of turret guns on 11 battleships, thought the President was too optimistic about that conference Another amendment, providing for the construction of a new dirigible, was adopted Of almost equal importance In the matter of national defense was the Inquiry Into the general state of the army begun by the house military affairs committee Among the first witnesses heard were Secretary of War Davis and Maj Gen Fox Conner, dep uty chief of staff They told the committee that the budget bureaus cuts In the appropriations asked by the War department would make necessary a reduction of 4,998 In the army personnel, which already is 8,000 be low the average strength of the last four years In the senate the demands of the big navy men were voiced by Sena tor JOhnsOD of California, who dedared It the beighth of folly to cripple our first line of defense at a time when our war creditors are hating us and mil the world is envying our pros perity Senator Hale of Maine, chairman of the naval affairs committee end an administration supporter in most things, followed with a speech in favor of buildlug the American navy In all classes of ships op to the 553 ratio established by the Washington conferenoe W ETS In both the senate and the house opened up a vigorous attack on the poMT of the federal government which permits the use of deadly putsoas In the denaturing of aloohol as s part of the enforcement of the prohibition Uw They had a long Hat 4 leafhf laid to the drinking of poisoned liquor during the holidays, and their denunciations were fierce The senate adopted a resolution Introduced by Edwards of New Jersey calling upon Secretary of the Treasury Mellon to produce whatever corre spondence may have passed between the Treasury department and Wayne B Wheeler, general counsel of the AntiSaloon league, In connection with the poisoning of Industrial alcohol to make It unfit for beverage purposes Several members of the house introduced resolutions and other meas ures dealing with the use of poisonous denaturants Mr Celler of New York raised a storm by asserting that congressmen drink to excess and refused to retract though others declared the assertion was an utter falsehood Brig Gen Smedley D Butler, who fought the bootleggers and grafters of Philadelphia for many months, seems to have changed his mind about pro hibition In an address in Oakland, Calif, the commander of marines on the Pacific coast denounced the eighteenth amendment as class legis lation, saying it reacted against the poor man and favored the rich one Its principal demerit, he indicated, Is the manner in which enforcement lias grown out of It M ATTERS between Cantonese forces and the British approached real crisis last week when a mob of Chinese at Hankow, Infuriated by antl forelgn harangues, attacked the British concession, took possession of public buildings, hoisted the revolutionary flag and forced the foreign business houses to close The British residents led to the French and Japanese concessions and all the British women and hlldren In Hankow, Klugiang and tchang were removed by vessels, most if them being taken to Shanghai The Cantonese officials were appealed to y the British consul and the Inade quate British forces there were withdrawn, control of the area being surrendered to the nationalist command er The British government ordered laval reinforcements from

Landing from the U S S Galveston at Corlnto, the party went to the capital by train and was warmly welcomed by the Nlcaraguan national guard and the officials of the Diaz government It was sent to Managua ostensibly to guard the American lega tion and on the recommendation of Admiral Latimer, who is maintaining the neutral zone he established along the eastern coast of Nicaragua Actually one of the Important factors prompting this action by the Washington government Is the determination to protect the proposed canal ronte across Nicaragua, for which the United States paid 3,000,000, and also to protect our leased naval base on the Gulf of Fonseca Support of the Diaz government Is a part of this pol icy Fully as important as the landing of the marines was the decision of President Coolldge to lift the embargo on the shipment of arms and to permit Plaz to get the 1000 rifles lfiO machine guns and several million rounds of ammunition which he purchased In the United States This was not pleasing to Senator Borah, who de clared that under existing conditions It was intervention The foreign relations committee of the senate, which has before It a resolution by Senator Wheeler calling for Immediate withdrawal of American naval forces from Nicaragua, decided to ask Secretary Kellogg to explain to It this week the entire Nlcaraguan situation can government will thus be thrown Into

WO important manifestoes emanated from Premier Mussolini of Italy last week In one the duce orders the prefects of all provinces to suppress ruthlessly all lllegalism and violence by Fascists, especially when directed against the representatives in Italy of foreign nations Particularly Mussolini referred to squadrism, a word coined recently in Italy to describe the act of squadrlsti, or little bands of Fascist strongarm men, who, while important In the days im mediately preceding the establishment of the Fascist regime, have now outlived their usefulness At the same time the duce announced that Fascism henceforth meant the Italian state, and, through the cabinet, further fasclstized the state by extending to all employees of the public administration the law providing for the dismissal of employees hitherto applicable to the central political departments B RIG GEN RAFAEL CRAME, chief of the Philippine constabulary, died a few days ago, and another con flict over his successor Is due between Governor General Wood and the Philippine senate under the leadership of Manuel Quezon It Is regarded as pertain that General Wood will name an American for the post, and Quezon says the senate will not confirm the appointment of an American General Crame, who was appointed by former Gov Gen Francis Burton Harrison, was of SpanishFilipino descent He was considered fairly efficient as chief, but the organization, which is thor oughly Phlllpplnlzed except for about a dozen American field officers, Is admittedly not up to the standard set when American army officers headed it New YorkUsing specially devised apparatus to measure the electrical resistance of the human akin and an electrical stethoscope which enabled the audience to hear the thumping of the heart of the person under examination, Dr A, P Link, instructor in psychology at New York university, demonstrated to the New York Electrical society how science can aid In detecting and apprehending criminals Three persons selected from the audience were sent out of the room under sealed Instructions One of the trio chosen by lot went to a room on the tenth floor of the building where a letter was taken out of an overcoat pocket From the envelope 10 was removed, the letter was replaced and the cul prit whose identity was not disclosed to Doctor Link or those Ita the audience, returned to the auditorium Doctor Link then subjected each of the three to electrical psychology tests The emotions aroused by the guilt of the robber became Instantly evident on the records of the apparatus An electrical stethoscope, specially devised by the Bell Telephone laboratories, amplifying the heartbeat sounds more than 100,000 times, enabled the audience to hear the thumping of the heart When the young man who had opened the envelope and removed the 10 was asked questions bearing on the robbery his quickened thumping of heart when the key words were mentioned was instantly made evident In addition to the quickened heart beat of the one who removed the 10 from the envelope, guilty excitement was also demonstrated In the form of a moving spot of light thrown on a screen in full view of the audience The spot shot clear across the screen when the person questioned became unduly excited Doctor Link explained that excitement lowered the electrical resistance of the skin This, he said, was espe cially when an effort was made to He or to conceal the truth According to Doctor Link this reaction Is entirely outside the control of the person examined He said this apparatus was a complete giveaway of the emotions which the robber was attempting to conceal Doctor Link also explained a number of psychological tests, electrical and otherwise, now in use for the selection of employees, either for hire or promotion He said these tests must not be used as infallible guides, but as an aid to the general common sense I P RESIDENT CALLES of Mexico has begun the enforcement of

1874 when goldenhaired Charlie, fouryear old son of Christian K Ross, disappeared The boy was playing on the lawn of his fathers estate when he was enticed away by two men believed to have been responsible for his death William Mosher and an ac complice drove up to the estate In a spring wagon and with promises of candy and a ride lured Charlie and his elder brother, Walter, into the wagon The four drove off and at the corner drug store some distance away Wal ter was given 25 cents to buy candy When he returned with his purchases, the wagon, the two men and his little brother had disappeared Charlie was never seen again by his family Until his death 23 years later, Christian Ross, the father, spent his life and fortune In an unsuccessful worldwide search for his boy, but no definite word waa ever received concerning him Several times messages emanate from Mosher, promising Charlies return if a large ransom were paid, but nothing came of the desperate fathers attempts to comply with these requests Finally, without betraying the secret of Charlies fate, Mosher and his comrade were killed In another city during an unsuccessful burglary Stories of Boy Plentiful Rumors of all sorts spread over the country as to the fate of Charlie Ross Some say he was killed by Mosher or died while held a captive Others were of the opinion that he is alive and from time to time

proportion, efficiency and productivity is increased, Though silent and unseen, electric power is the greatest agency maiing for the establishment of the shorter work week in all lines of industry Forwardlooking employers have sensed the coming of this reform and are prepared to accept it as a logical development and the class which dings stubbornly to the old must yield as they were forced to by the eighthour movement Stern necessity of balancing production with the ability to consume will force the change Furthermore, it must be made methodically in those industries that are ready for it The building industry has been a leader in the shorter work day movement, and by use of modern tools is likely to make still more efficiency possible The best evidence that the reform is possible is

Great Need of Young Men and Women By W H B FAUNCE, President Brown University Young men and young women knocking at the doors of our crowded colleges must possess, for admittance, genuine intellectual curiosity, a real hunger for knowledge No buildings or equipment can make a university, which is an intellectual and spiritual enterprise The most powerful and effective ma chine in the world is a dead thing, useful only in the service of living men Only personalities, working together in the pursuit of truth and beauty and goodness, constitute the university In ancient Athens in the time of Pericles the best flour mill could grind out about two barrels of flour per day In some of our western cities a modern mill can produce 80,000 barrels per day Yet the citizens who lived around the Athenian mill were of a finer type, more openminded, more eager for truth, more sensitive to beauty, than those we produce today The object of education, as Goethe said, is not that something may be done through us, but something done in us And when that vital thing has been done in us, when the mind has been opened and visualized and whetted and trained, then whatever the place in life we have to fill, we hall go forth as gentlemen unafraid to make some small spot of earth finer place to live in First I want to ask Have yon an appetite Are you really hungry All around our college campuses today are boys who really have no hunger for knowledge They, of course, want to succeed in life, and they are willing to endure education if it seems the passport to success Too Little Attention Given to the Great Problem of Heredity By C H ANDERSON, Iowa Alienist The span of life is shortening through neglect in the improvement f the race, while criminality, delinquency, disease and insanity are on the increase rnd public institutions and hospitals are growing more crowded The social fabric is steadily and rapidly weakening and unless this downward plunge is halted the race of mankind is destined to completely collapse Even now it is stretched to the breaking point There are two chief factors which influence our lives One is heredity and the other environment Upon the improvement of the latter by schools, colleges, churches and social centers, we spend millions of dol lars every year, but to heredity we give scarcely a thought, and as a reult there is scattered over the state of Illinois, as in every other state, institutions for the crippled, the blind, the deaf, the dumb, the epileptic, the diseased, the insane and the criminal The laws of heredity are as inexorable as the

ago, and not only that, but they are using furs that never before have had a place in fashion Ponyskin and gazelle, chip munk, giraffe and goatskin have established themselves as furs appropriate for wearing purposes because of the great skill with which they were handled However, it requires something of an Imagination to ftud any thing attractive in the notion of wearing calfskin when It was first reported that this spotty, conspicuous hide was to be employed In the fashioning of coats The earliest models were not particularly smart, nor were they interesting, but recently several new coats have appeared which have much to recommend them both from the point of view of chic and serviceability They are cleverly cut on straight se vere lines, very much In the manner of a mannish topcoat, and while strik ing In appearance are not unduly conspicuous An effective use of black and white cslf Is also seen In gray tweed coats where the skin forms a facing down each side of the

CADMAN, President Federal Council of Churches Modem civilization has beset society with more evils than the church fcaj been, able to cure, and the result is crime waves, godless pleasure, elirty drama, sex obsession and profiteering The majority of intelligent people admit that Christianity is the nly hope of cure or prevention for these evils If the people who so believe were united in one practical policy, they could find the cure for the present conditions in our nation and world Meanwhile, our upstanding and forceful men are giving their time tnd labor to politics in behalf of democracy Yet when critics speak of the failure of the churches, do they take into account the even worse fail ure of politics and democracy Notwithstanding strenuous efforts, fcarcely more than half

evening wraps Some are frankly dolmans Others have cleverly cut 10O8e sleeves, not unlike a kimono sleeve This gives a full effect above the waistline and the lower part of the eoat fits rather tightly to the figure Fabrics this season are peculiarly well adapted to this new silhouette One sees much use of supple velvets, both plain and patterned, as well as metal In the most georgeous colorings and exotic designs Unusually smart are metal cloths with small selftoned conventional motifs woven through the surface These are square, dia mond shape or oval and are most Interesting and effective Fur of the finest quality Is used ss decoration on the new evening wraps but its application Is governed by discretion In almost every Instance it Serves to accentuate a definite line

others affairs Sometimes this type of writer is too secretive for his own good and does ntit express himself enough He gradually retires within himself and loses his ability to speak fluently

Decrees The evening hat has once again come Into fashion In Paris Many smart women who And their shingle all that can be desired In the way of chic for daytime find themselves lacking in smartness In the evening The turban, which was once worn for evening, is no longer smart, and more complicated hats have been designed They follow the same lines as those worn during the day, but take more liberties in the form of decor tloos of feathers, embroidery and lace Gold and silver lace are mosUy used, but a few more original creators show brocades and embroidered metal cloths The hats are only worn fer dinner and informal restaurant wear, not for full dress functions In these cases new headdresses have bees de signed to meet the occasion, which leave the top of the head free, Just giving a

writing, large loops particularly The loop can be lurge and still be found in small writing The proportionate size is what counts If the lower loop of the letter f goes far beyond and below the line,

purposes are bred In the late fall of the same year they were born far rowing the following spring at approximately one year of age What Influence does this early conception, pregnancy, and motherhood have on the ultimate development of the ani mal thus handled Does the bearing of young at this early age effect the later development of the sow or does it affect the size and vigor of the first litter born The general concensus of opinion and observation among swine producers would say that breeding gilts no older than six months of age Is too young Mumford of the Missouri station conducted an experiment to determine the influence of early breeding on gilts and their offspring This workcovered a period of more than 12 years during which time one group of gilts and their offspring were bred as soon as they came in heat other sows and their offspring were bred for the first time at about eighteen months of age while still others were bred for ths first time at thirty months of age All pigs and sows throughout the experiment were liberally fed on well balanced rations It was found, that Immature gilts bred at five months of age and twice a year thereafter developed Into smaller animals at maturity than If they had not been bred until later This decreased size is the result of the heavy drain on the sow during the lactation period rather than due to pregnancy Mumford says, The diminished slse of mature sows bred at such an early age has no very important practical significance in the production of swine for market, since the difference In size at maturity between animals bred st a very young age and those bred at a later age, is not significant Concerning the effect of early breeding on the pigs of young mothers, Mumford concludes that the main dif ference that might occur would come because of the failure of young mothers to supply a sufficient amount ol milk for the most rapid growth of the pigs This effect Is not commercially very significant The pigs from, very young sows will require about ten days longer to reach 250 lbs weight than will pigs from more maturt mothers The foregoing discussion has to do with sows and pigs that were well fed The results would not be the sami where gilts are bred at a very early age and this followed by scant feeding ZXoItA Adopt Blousing Bodice to Attain Slendernest The tradition of slenderness, after flirting with the flared hemline for two seasons, Is now revived in all its sllmness But the effect is far more difficult to achieve than when the chemise frock, with its pencil silhouette, was the vogue Todays modes are more complicated, more Intricate ly styled, and as a consequence it requires more skill to achieve the prop er outline In order to attain the modish slenderness of the season, yon should therefore adopt the blousing bodice, fairly snug, the fitted hlpllne and ths skirt whose fullness In cleverly concealed by means of manipulating plaits or tucks Long, clinging sleeves draped at the wrists will be found another efficient means of producing a slim outline Your waistline, whiea can no longer b glossed orer, should be distinct but not to the point of creating anything

matter how young If they are able to walk and talk, upon entering a room where there are callers, should be punctiliously Intro duced, and the caller should respond as politely and formally as if the small person were twentyAve years old The only way to tesch children social graces is to accustom them from Infancy If Mrs Barlows little daughter of two years comes into the drawing room when Mrs

head af tha pasjltry department at South Carolina Stat college The twa usual reaaoaa for low egg produettoa are found in tha poor producing of the hen and also because may sot have tha proper food aad cam If the hen comas from a high producing strain and ts not laying aa aha should, it Is possible that she may not have a comfortable house, or that ana U aot tree of parasites, and doea not have the right kind of feed and other care Doctor Kaupp states that egga are low in price during the spring months because everybodys hens are laying then Eggs always go down in the spring and the farmers organisations should store eggs at that season, ha the winter eggs go up to 76 cents and gl per dozeA because the hens are not laying Then the storage houses bring out the cheap spring eggs to sell at a good profit The poultry department has prepared extension circulars 155, 156 snd 158 which tell how to put the farm flock on a paying basis These bul letins are free and will tell how to cull and feed the birds for winter eggs It should be remembered, states Doctor Kaupp, that laying hens most have mash before them at all times The mash must contain crushed grains, minerals, fish or meat meal, Or the surplus milk of the farm Tender, green feed is also needed each day Water should be constantly before the birds and the grain feed given them twice each day 9iT Most Poultry Diseases Can Easily Be Conquered A broom, shovel, scraper and a spray pump with some crude oil or other good spray material will conquer most poultry diseases The University of Nebraska lists these remedies as the best for most poultry diseases Unfor tunately, they also require energy and initiative on the part of the flock owner It Is much easier to put pills or dope in the drinking water after the hens are sick than It Is to scald the fountains and clean up the house Of course, poultry yields to treatment the same as other live stock but why allow slckuess to gain a foothold tn the first place Furthermore, the fellow who pins too much faith on brightcolored, strongsmelling medicines usually forgets to remove the cause of tthe trouble A little study usually proves It to be overcrowding, poor ventilation, filth and vermin Disease will cure the overcrowding, but it Is an expensive method Just plsin prevention is aU most poultry raisers need to avoid losses At 21Richard Bennett Worked In s Factory i A T

wrecked and deserted on the public highway by their owners should be changed and the costs assessed agaist the owners or the car sold to pay expenses A case of this kind came up here last summer when two cars driven by Detroit people ran together at M 49 and the Pleasant Hills road, both being badly wrecked As the road was completly blocked Slayton and Parker of this place were told by the

following the grim detail of the BanMills murder mystery, all France was stirred by the most sense faire ceiebre since the trial dm, the French Bluebea years ago The parallel between the two4 esses la impressive In both Instances the principals were women of sixty, who, because of the dignity of their age and the prestige of the large fortunes they commanded, seemed secure against any misadventure with the law Both were charged with a capital crime against one of their kin by marriage And in both trials there waa the spectacle of two men, brothers in the case of Mrs Hall, husband and son in the case of Mme Lefebvre, defending their women kin against the accusation of a heinous and indefensible crime Both cases presented a baffling mystery the Hall case a mystery of fact, In which the issue was the identity of tiie murderer the Lefebvre case a psychological mystery, in which the motive for the Frenchwomans confessed crime baffled the best legal brains of France An Amazing Character But here the parallel between the HallLefebvre cases ends For when, finally the aged Frenchwomans motive was unraveled there was revealed to the world an amazing psychopathic character such as only a Balzac could have created The Lefebvre murder could have been committed only In a Latin country And the Hall trialt nwffled in the silence of the defendants, was a dull show Indeed compared with the Lefebvre trial, enlivered continually by Latin emotionalism, Latin outbursts of passion In both theprlnclpals and the audience and repeated and frantic efforts by the judges to control the uncontrollable exhibitions of French temperament throughout the trial Exactly one year ago, in the fall of 1025, Mme Guillaume Lefebvre learned from her son a secret that be had kept for five months that his wife, Antoinette Mulle Lefebvre, was soon to give birth to an heir to the combined LefebVTfrMuile fortunes On that very day Mme Lefebvre bought a revolver and, soon after, writing to her son, asked him to call on her, bring his wife with him and take them both for a drive In bis car The son, obedient to his mothers wishes, appeared several days later at the paternal home with bis young wife, and the three set out for a drive Andre Lefebvre occupied the front seat alone His wife and his mother sat together in the rear When they passed through the city gates and emerged into the suburbs, Mme Lefebvre requested that ber son drive along the path known as Solitude road Andre, without Inquiring Into the reasons for this strange wish, still in his manhood as pliant before the commanding will of his mother us he was when a child, complied But when he had reached Solitude road andthe car was humming along the deserted lane, he suddenly heard an outcry from his mother Andre turned, and what he saw made hire bring the car to a quick halt His wife, immobile, lay back In her seat a thin stream of crimson trickling down her cheek from a wound in ber temple His mother, spent, ber hands paralysed in her lap, one of them holding a revolver, regarded him silently Tb young man could only ask his agonised question with his eyes the following omen newspapers described 4rf mother love, another onet Aa usual, the case was tried In the French press long before It cams to the courts and presently, though still recognising a crime of passion, the newspapers became aware that they were dealing with something more than a mothers love for ber sou, a passion just as old, but In Mme Lefebvre overshadowingany feeling she had for ber offspring, The star reporters assigned to the case got their first cue to the real motive for the crime In Andre Lefebvres conduct at the hospital, when be showed such concern about his dead wifes puree and her Jewels Their Inquiry took a definite direction when it was estimated that the entire outfit of clothing worn by the millionaire at the time of her arrest could not have exceeded In cost more than 15 And when it was learned that the young couple had been quite happy and altogether devoted to each other and that If anything, they had been living beneath their means, Mme Lefebvres bitter charge that Antoinette Mulle was driving her son to ruin specifically revealed the nature, of the passion which had driven her to commit murder Bit by bit, In the press and legal investigations and during the trial, there emerged the portrait of an amazing creature, a female Harpagon, such a monster of greed as neither Mollere nor Balzac would have dared to portray lest they TaTx too heavily the credence of their publics A Love Match The marriage of Andre Lefebvre and Antoinette Mulle was, to all ap pearances, a love match, but Mine Lefebvre made It plain to her son that she considered It a mesalliance, be cause the Mulle fortune, though considerable, was not quite equal to their own Shortly before the wedding, Andre announced to his mother that he was to leave on a short honeymoon after the ceremony Mme Lefebvre threw up her arms In horror Honeymoons were a waste and a needless expense, she told him Who had put such nonsense Into his head Probably that awful girl, who already was filling his head with extravagant notions However, Andre insisted that it was only decent for people In their position to have a honeymoon and, on the following day, be went to a travel bu reau and arranged for the trip It wa perhaps the first time In his life that the young man, thoroughly under his mothers thumb, had ever asserted himself, and Mme Lefebvre sensed that this alien woman not only was leading her Bon to extravagance but was threatening her own authority The resentment she nurtured In creased She yielded to ber sons wishes, but when she learned that be had procured first class, tickets for his travels, she immediately repaired to the tour ist bureau and had them changed to second class It did not appear at all grotesque to her that a young couple representing two of the most substantial families in northern France should travel second class on their honeymoon The newlywede had been gone only four or five daya when Mme Le fisding it tJKtssKs, urging men and saving, warning test be would land inthe She was sheeted beyond ahe found that Antoinette laid whits tablecloth for each maL But it Is acsjudsjou, she whined to her sou Think of the laundry bill white linen soils so quickly We have always used red tablecloths and napkins at home They last s long time without washing She was stunned when ahe discovered that her lavish gift of fantiqueM furniture had been consigned by Antoinette to the attic and that the home was tastefully furnished with new and expensive equipment The discovery led to a bitter quarrel between the women, one of the first of many to follow Mme Lefebvre was not appeased when Antoinette explained that the could not have used the worthless Junk ber motherinlaw had given her without making herself and her husband the laughing stock of their set She was not appeased when the young woman explained that she was spend ing largely out of her own pocket that her people were welltodo, and that she had been brought up to live according to her ample means Mme Lefebvre emerged from each of these quarrels with the conviction that her eon had married into a family of spendthrifts and wasters and that his wife would lead him inevita bly to his ruin Yet it was brought out at the trial that the wealthy young couples total expenditures did not exceed 4,000 a year Her Hatred Grows In the heart of Mme Lefebvre there gathered a consuming hatred for her daughterinlaw and for the whole Mulle family which was soon to come to a head It was hatred which grew as she realized she was alone In her desperate struggle to save the Lefebvre fortune Her aged busbanL seventysix and long retired from busi ness, was a mere pale, carbon copy of herself, echoing her protests and resentments but helpless and relying entirely on his wife to fight the menace to their wealth He had been cowed too long by this dominant wom an to show any fight now He waa just a whining old man Her son, Andre, a war hero many times decorated, was a spineless creature tn her presence, his win broken from infancy to respond to her imperious will Then one day Andre Lefebvre announced to his mother that an heir waa expected It was the spark thai kindled Mme Lefebvres hatred to a consuming flame This alien woman who was bringing her son to rum, who was wasting Instead of building a fortune, was about to bring Into the world another Mslleanother waster She bought a revolver and killed the young woman whose condition offined a new menace to her greed The Lefebvre trial lasted only four days, but into that short time there waa packed more drama thus la a whole month of the HallMills The jury

of Le Petit Journal write to me about the appear ance In the sky of luminous meteors which sometimes burst in the sir and light op the landscape When these stones reach the earth they constitute what scientists call aerolites Their metallic character is now well recognised and there are many varie ties of them to be seen In tbe beautiful Collection of the Pails Museum of Natural History Astronomers still discuss their origin, but all admit that the aerolites are the remnants of comets Between the shooting stars, which weigh hard ly a centigram, and the aerolites, which ma weigh several tons, there would be perfect Identity, if tbey were of the same weight Dangers Are Exaggerated Formerly people attributed to thesebodies all sorts of terrors, But today we possess better information about them and are in a position to gythat the dangers from a fall of meteors are greatly exaggerated Ought we to fear a general bombardment I dont think so The In terplanetary spaces are being emptied more and more of the materials which contributed to the formation of the sun and the planets, and there is no reason in nature to foresee a terrifying recurrence of meteors Undoubtedly certain years, like 1908, 1914 and 1920, show incontestable maxima But year in and year out our planet re ceives on an average only 87,000 tona of foreign material That is very little compared with the total mass of the globeso little that at such a rate it would take 400,000,000 years to accumulate a layer one centimeter thick over the entire surface of the earth At this rate the length of the day would be increased hardly a thousandth of a second in a million years We have plenty of time to see what will happen, and the aerolites will hardly derange our sidereal clocks Every year we notice, also, a return of warmth with St Martins sum mer, which arrives In November, nnd some subtle scientists have concluded that tbts phenomenon of warming up should be attributed to the big swarm of shooting stars, known under the name of Leonldes, throuph which the earth passes at this period Heat Theory k Denied Here is an admirable piece of foolishness which will be passed out again this year If the autumn continues to be normal Let us suppose, however, that at the moment of the November shower there alls on the earth one hundred tons of meteors every day, which Is a very high maximum Do you know what amount of heat that would develop at the end of a year for each square meter of the earths surface Exactly what the sun sends us In a tenth of a second You see that a little figuring often prevents people from saying foolish things But there Is another consideration If our dog dayi durlnjj St Martins summer were due to mfonnterlng me teor swarms, tbe phenomenon would occur everywhere on the globe Now, all experienced meteorologists will tell you that St Martins summer is limited to certain countries nd IR not encountered everywhere on the earths surface The question Is thus pretty well cleared up Apart from being struck on the bead by a meteor, which t an extremely rare occurrence, we can reassure ourselves as to the future which the shooting stars and the aerolites have in store for our planet jpejfce Get Man sMSeves Haw Sought t New YorkAn attempt to rob Queen Marie was disclosed by police detectives A man who claims to be a professional tea taster, bat who is

last ten jean There are certain spectacular crimes, such as bank holdups, hat the general volume is decreasing There has been a diminution of vagrancy and drsmkaaaess During the last fifteen years, the number of automobiles has increased many times and the revolver has been circulated widely, This is no reason for the American public to become terrorized, because there ere a great number of lawabiding citizens The freedom granted the youth of today and the liberties allowed by new inventions are blamed for crime conditions New inventions are breeders of crime Intelligence and discretion, with the American public keeping its feet on the ground, will aid in combating lawlessness Comparing the criminal of the past and present, there are bold criminals in the United States today, but none

aviator postman receives an annual salary of between 4,000 and 9,000 The high pay, plus the desire for the excitement of flying, recently caused two field superintendents of the service to desert ground jobs and return to piloting Both now fly regular mall routes The mall pilot receives a base pay of between 2,000 and 3,600 depend ing on length of service, and is paid in addition by the mile

God, they cannot help but have their beliefs also The perfectly natural thing to do is to believe your beliefs and doubt your doubts Do not doubt your beliefs and believe your doubts The proper thing to do with a doubt is to starve it The proper thing to do with a belief is to feed it Doubt never comforted a man, helped a man, saved a man but belief will Doubt is destructive, belief constructive, and it is the construc tive we need in our religion or it will not amount to much Many foolish people believe doubt is the sign and imprimatur of highest intellectualism, but it cannot stand the test of logic or experience Doubt is suspended animation of the mind Belief is the active and motivating process French Protest Bread for Dogseontrol ParisThe dogs of France dally eat 3000 tons of bread

United States By REV WINNINGTONINGRAM, Lord Bishop of London Europe must learn from America that high wages, besides being an Index of prosperity, are an actual economic stinmhmt IVe in England have had the wrong idea all the time While you people have been digging in to produce, we have been wasting time in petty bickerings over the exact division of factory profits Here everybody works hard and there is plenty for all In Europe each class views the other with suspicion, and, consequently, all are impoverished The one thing I shall carry away from my visit to the United Statei is the American conception of prosperity as being induced by high wages and short hours of labor Whatever efforts are made to secure larger wages seem to be based on the intention also to produce prodigiously, that there will be a larger share for all Increased Development of SelfControl One of Modern Generations Needs By DR HENRY VAN DYKE, ExPrinceton Professor The modern generation has advanced much in justice

02WJRESS adjourned Wednesday nlgbt for tli holidays, and will not reassemble until January 3 Thoog the house was quitebusy In the week preceding the recess, most of the interest centered in the senate Tuesday night the noose river and harbor stil was pot U vote and despite the titter atiafc that had been made on pert of it, the measure passed by the overwhelming vote of 57 to 9 Those voting in the negative were Couaena of IBchtgan, Fraaier of North Dane, Howell and Norrls of Nebraska, Leureet of Wisconsin, Willis ot Ohio, Sepunlfean and Blease of Sooth Carolina, Ferris of Michigan and Kin of Utah Democrats As passed by the senate the measure carries appropria tions of 175,000,000, almost SXO,000,060 to hew projects and surveys beingadded In the closing hours of debate TJnerefore It went to conference, bot with a certainty that the differences would be adjusted For the Middle West the item of great Interest is that providing for completion of the niinoiB river link of the lakestothegulf waterway by the construction of a channel In the river nine feet deep and 200 feet wide from Ctlea to lta mouth A clause was Inserted which specifies that the measure shall not be construed as authorising water diversion from Lake Michigan This gives Illinois a gateway to the ocean, Senator Deneen asserted We wllT Be on the longest waterway in the world, running from the Gulf of Mexico to the St Lawrence river The BTfnofe provision saTTsned the senate and I am sure It will satisfy the noose Aside from the Illinois Improvement Cae most Important items In the measure include an authorisation of 12600,060 for beginning the improvement mi the Sflssoarl river between Kansas City and Sioux City an agreement for the purchase of the Cape Cod canal for 111,500,000, and 4,000,000

were defeated and said they would bring op that measure at a later date S SNATCH HARRIS of Georgia on Monday introduced a resolution for investigation ot charges that federal appointments in the South are commonly bartered and sold by Re nnjbllean national committeemen This went to the Judiciary committee, and Senator Ernst of Kentucky moved that the resolution be broadened to Include similar charges against Democratic leaders and to inquire into the extent of the disfranchisement of Ne groes in the South with a view to the enforcement of the Fourteenth amend sunt to the Constitution This nafaratly didnt please the Democrats at ailv and the matter waa referred to a SENATOR HSFLIN ol broke loose Monday wltl In which he repeated the, old story that Jess W Smith, confidant of Harry Daugherty when the latter was attorney general, did not commjt suicide hot was murdered He asset ad that Smith was slain to prevent exposure of a plan whereby Secretary of the Treasury Mellon was Jo be, reimbursed for a loan of 5,000,000 to the HardingCoolidge campaign fund by contributions forced from bootleggers and brewers Jess Smith knew so much that it was desired to get rid of him, declared Heftin We were conducting a general investigation of the whole thing It was rumored, also, that Jess Smith grew exceedingly nervous over It and that he had made up hie mind to make a clean breast of it all, but Jess never lived to make that dean breast He died, le was murdered Sounds like delirium to me, was Secretary Mellons only comment when told of Senator Hefllns attack 4 TgT case of Frank

COOLIDGE let It be known that he will not approve appropriations for the construction of additional cruisers for the navy at this session of congress This followed on the action of the house naval affairs committee in submitting formally the Butler bill authorizing the build ing of ten light cruisers with the unanimous recommendation that an appropriation be made at once for the completion of the three cruisers al ready authorized in the 1024 building program It was stated at the White House that while acknowledging the need of mere era4ers if the fteet la to be rounded out as a balanced unit in comparison with other major powers, the President feels the present naval construction bill is heavy enough for rhe American public to stand at this time He is Insistent that the present airplane carriers, the Lexington and the Saratoga, together with fleet submarines now building, should be com pleted before cruiser building Is begun F IVE bills revising postal rates were passed by the house One Is for restoration of the one cent rate for private post cards another authorizes transmission of business reply cards, the return postage of not more than two cents to be paid by the original mailer when the card Is returned A third bill amending the postal act would fix at one cent an ounce the rate on publications when mailed as secondclass matter by others than the publisher or his agent Another would provide for an additional charge on firstclass matter mailed with Insufficient postage E FFORTS of the house and senate conference committee to agree on legislation to regulate

nei when It seemed that naught could save him He had moved for a time In the circle that knew him best, undetected He had played his game with the affections of women, and well But Clyde Hilliard discounted fate, and once placed on tr defensive, he forgot the code by which, he had lived Never accept any man as your friend Then they got him The murder of Gene Bowen and the shootin of Dorothy Wilson in the Green street apartment, police said, had been plain slaughter The vic tims never had a chance ItTwas a falling out of thieves the detectives held, and later Mrs Wilson bore them out Hilliard, she said, had not liked Eugene Bowens division of the spoils In a recent gem robbery So he took his longavowed method of settling such disputes Knocking at the door of the apartment in which Bowen and his sweetheart lived, he had spoken his greeting to the two within with a fustlade of pistol shots Bowen fail dead Dorothy Wilson, lapsing into a state of coma from the effects of her three wounds, waa de termined to get Hilliard if it took her dying effort Reaching a pencil and a piece of paper and dropping to the floor she scrawled c Clyde done It330 Post stre When the police came she was unconscious But v they knew the rest of the unwritten story Clyde Hilliard had done it DragNet Thrown Out The dragnet was quickly thrown about the city add a systematic search of the underworld haunts was begun by the homicide squad They found that Hilliard and a girl named Gladys bad hastily left their apartment at No 1635 Polk street, where they lived In luxury as Mr and Mrs Clyde Bioason Two days later Dorothy Wilson had sufficiently regained her strength to identify positively rogues gallery pic tures of Hilliard as the slayer of Bowen And if you dont get him, wc will r she told the police But Clyde Hilliard had not played his game so long for nothing, and he fooled both the police and the underworld Fooled them until the game got too easy, and he threw caution to the four winds That was along in September On the night of September 16, Charles Brown, dapper but gray of hair, and somewhat sour of disposi tion, gave a party in a Sacramento street apartment Liquor flowed free ly and the general hilarity became obnoxious to other tenants in the build ing The police were called when Browns nervous trigger finger let loose three shots through a door panel Charles Brown and hty six companionsfour of them women were jailed One of the women was named Gladys Grayson Whats the charge Brown asked the desk sergeant Disturbing the peace, was the answer Whats the balir asked Brown Two hundred dollars apiece, answered the sergeant Charles Brown planked down 1,400 in currency on the sergeants desk Five minutes later he and bis companions walked out of tbe hall of justice and disappeared into tbe night That was the beginning of the end of Ctydejrjtfllard Twelve hours later the police fingerprint system had revealed that Charles Brown, released on bail for disturbing the peace, was none other than Hilliard, long sought as the murderer of Bowen It was the first clue the police had been given, but also It was the first Hue rhot had come to the underworld friends of Eugene Bowen and Dorothy Wllaon Knew Water Was Hot Milliards hand had been tipped His new hHunfs, his new makeup, his new aliasesall had been bared And the hunted slayer knew that the water wns hot

harm or evil, as a sinister omen or a sinister face The literal meaning of the word, however, is simply left Its original signlfirnnce merely something that ap peared or was done on the left We have it from the Latin sinister, which is the opposite to dexter1 or right And Just as the word dexterous, meaning skillful, was origi nally applied simply to something done with the right hand, so sin

of a request from some of their breeders for help in combating a disease which resembles roup In many respects Tbe station found that It was not roup for It could not be transmitted from one hen to another Further investigation showed that the flocks were affected with a nutritional disease on account of lack of green fetd tn the ration A good many people supply this green feed by sprouting oats or by aving a supply of root crops Some tujd improve their ration and overome a good deal of their trouble by making use of the shattering leaves from clover or alfalfa hay If the shatterings, which in the majority of cases are mostly leaves, are picked up and given to the hens In the morning they will eat a lot of the leaves and smaller stems The coarser material will make excellent scratch material In which to feed the grain portion oi the ration These shatterings make a good substitute for other green feed FOR THE GOOSE You might not be able to talk more than your neighbor, but you can

is public confidence At the very outset your newspapers sell you the right to share in the confidence oi their readers that they have built up by conscientious editorial effort These readers respect their newspapers They have a great degree of faith in anything that appears in the newspapers columns So, you see, all advertisers begin with everything in their favor Their success depends upon how they regard this reader confidence that the newspaper turns over to them The practice of certain merchants in allowing favored customers to pick over articles for a Bale before they are made available to the general public, which has been attracted to H, by newspaper advertising, is an abuse of the principle of advertising In commenting upon the part played by newspaper advertising in the general economic problem of the country, Mr Barton proved that adver tising, by effecting a more rapid turnover, made for lower prices Advertising is the sure way of increasing sales and production without lowering quality It reduces selling costs It shortens the time in which merchandise passes from the manufacturer or merchant to the consumer It creates markets for merchandise that otherwise would not exist The policies of large city newspapers in censoring advertising submitted to their columns, is to be commended The more ewspaper respects its readers the more its readers will respect it Economic

woman in every line of work should have time for this When we become wise enough to see this, labor will take on its true dignity and our labor men will do finer work and more work than ever before I am glad, therefore that William Green, the present wise and able president of the American Federation of Labor, is emphasizing this as a matter to be kept in view and brought about in due time Wholesome recreation and amateur sport may have its proper place on Sunday, provided it does not take the place of prayer and worship Our sports and recreations are in their own proper place as truly acceptable and pleasing to God as our prayers and our worship, but it IB not right for us to give to recreation the hours that belong to worship The instinct for play is as divinely implanted in human nature as the instinct for work and the instinct for worship The church must not merely tolerate clean sports and recreation but give them its glad and open blessing Spirit of Militarism Has No Place in Hearts of American People By DWIGHT F DAVIS, Secretary of War The Soldiers memorial at Kansas City, Mo, recently dedicated by President Coolidge, is a visible memorial of the glorious deeds of the American soldiercitizens and citizensoldiers, of our admiration for their achievements, of our respect for their ideals and of our pledge that we will fulfill the heritage of their trust They fought and died, not for wealth or power or increase of landsnot even for selfdefense, but rather that their ideals of civilization might live Their lives were short, but their ideals are eternal Their comrades in arms share their love of peace Those who have suffered the indescribable horrors of war are foremost in the desire for peace, so long as peace can be honorably maintained Our President has earnestly urged the limitation of competitive armaments by agreements among the nations and this nation stands ready to join in any practical measure to bring about this end There is no danger of

trimmings centers this year in two furs that are being featured by both furriers and couturiers astrakan with its allied furs such as caracul and Persian lamb, and Hudson seal The clothlike pliability and delicate gradations of coloriug possible with baby lamb have served Redfern well in a lovely straight coat of this fur in light gray with a 12lncb border of narrow strips cut In rickrack points, shading from pafe gray to a dark blue gray at the hem This same zigzag pattern is repeated on tbe velvet lining of the coat, where it also shades from light to dark Both astrakhan and Hudson seal are effective when used as a trimming on the seasons newest cloth and velvet wraps of the semitailored order, but Orunwaldt uses It Just as successfully on a straight coat of moleskin, the Hudson seal being applied as a foot border coming up narrowly in scallops at the back of tbe coat, but mounting toward tbe front until the highest points reach nearly to the waistline Seal collars and cuffs add a final touch of chic Furlined coats are the latest weapons used by the couturiers to dislodge the fur coat from Its persistent popu larity Very often the fur lining, being chosen merely for its needed warmth, has no relation to tbe fur used as a trimming on the coat Striking examples of this peculiarity are the coats of zibilikasha or broadcloth in such CamelsHalr Cloth Beaver Collar Trimmed With

These were accompanied by the request for the recipient to please send one dollar if he kept the ties. This stunt was worked in nearly every town in this section and the following article in regard to it is taken from the Business Farmer. The police officials of the city where his business is located, St. Louis Missouri, advise that he is not entitled to any consideration whatever and no consideration should be paid to his communications. Also it is understood that he is conducting an extensive enterprise with the backing of business interests. It has even been said that a large knitting mill is using him as a means of disponing of its output. He stated to the St. Louis Better Business Bureau that he is not in need of charity and promised to eliminate «11 reference to his blindness from his advertisements, a promise which he apparently, has -not fulfilled to date NOTICE The January meeting of the Livingston County Township /Chairman I A: M. of the Public Health Servfc* will be held at the heme of Harvey Dyer at Plainfield at 2:90 P.

COUNTRFEIT FIVE DOLLAR BILL A warning has been issued to the public regarding counterfeit five dollar bills in circulation in certain sections of the state. One dollar bills have been cleverly raised to five, but the counterfeiters, with careless disregard for the tradition about Washington, neglected to change the picture to one of Lincoln, which usually adorns $5. In other respects the counterfeit bills are said to show real artistry. The numerala in the corners have been changed, the border altered to correspond with the five dollar denomination, and the lettering jammed in a barely deetable manner.To cover another discrepancy—the large combination of numerals and letters next to the picture—were partly torn and a strip of musilaged paper glued on it as if to prevent further'tearing.

He hated to give away Anything. If he had soiue peuules In his packets and the other boys weie goiQg to chip In together and get some Candy or marbles Walter would go Along with them but he would try to pretend he hadn't any money so tie jrouidn't have to spend his. Of Coarse, If he couldn't succeed In this he'd spend a very little. Walter was just like his father always had been. Bo It was not altogether his fault. H e had been taught that the more held onto money the more one • I Dw>'t Know You—What Is Your Name?" had and he had been taught, too, that *Jk* less he spent the less would be :ted of him.

"Have your money ready In case you have to give, but don't give if you can help It. They may think you're giving to other charities and can't alford this, too. They often have nice kind thoughts like that." That had been the way In widen Walter had been brought up, so one can hardly blame Walter. Yet he was a very seitl^fi little boy as a result and It grew to be so that no one wanted him around. He wanted everyone to do everything for him. He wanted to do nothing at all for anyone except himself. He had no idea of what the spirit of giving meant. No Idea at all. Now Peter (liiome had heard of Walter und Peter (Jnome felt it was a pity that a little boy who would otherwise be a nice little boy should be allowed to grow up Into a miser or very mean person. So one time, late, late at night, Peter Gnome paid a call on Walter. Walter was smiling to himself for Walter had Just been thinking of what luck he had had in not having to spend anything for ever and ever so long but in getting everyone to do for him. And as he was smiling to himself along came Peter Gnome. "Hello, Walter," said Peter. "I don't know you," said Walter, •'but what Is your name?" "Peter Gnome. I've come to play." "Oh yes," said Walter, "and have you some marbles?" "No," 'said Peter Gnome, "but you have." Walter looked quite uncomfortable. If he played with his marbles they might get lost. "And I'd like some candy," said Peter Gnome. "I heard you hadn't spent a penny for days and days and I thought it was a good time to begin." Walter looked very miserable. "And I'd like to have a game of ball, too, but we'll have to use your ball. I didn't bring mine." Walter looked astonished. "I don't know that I can play Just now," Walter said at last. "No," said Peter Gnome, "and you won't be playing very much from now on except all by yourself if you don't change your ways, "The way I've talked to you isn't half as dreadful as the way you've acted with the other boys—you want all their things to share but you will share nothing of your own.

Lacey, Leading Lumber Man, Was a Druggist. << A T ABOUT eighteen I got a Job ^*> in a Grand Rapids drug store which paid me seven dollars a week; every week I got my seven dollars I peeled off three and added them to some savings I already had. When I got a raise to eight dollars, I peeled off four and when my pay rose to ten dollars I peeled off five. So that by the time I was twenty-one I got enough money saved up to buy a half interest In a drug store of my own. "But it was a bad time to buy. A new tariff law went into effect soon after taking the duties off many kinds of merchandise and Immediately our stock became worth only about half what we paid for it. We managed to sell the store, though at a considerable loss, and I went on the road as a salesman.—James D. Lacey." TODAY: Mr. Lacey Is one of the most noted lumber men In this country, with offices In Chicago, Seattle and New York, and a trade that extends to all parts of South America. A peculiar phase of Mr. Lacey's career is that he got into the lumber business after he had made a comparative success as a drug-store owner. At the age of thirty-one he had already saved some $30,000 from the profits of a drug store, when he thought of lumber as a better paying proposition for him.

The writer stumbled upon this superstition the other day. A domestic in the family had a sty. A neighbor told her, "Oh, that's easy enough to cure," loaned her the necessary wedding ring and showed her how to work the charm. The next day the sty was better and rapidly disappeared, thus making another convert to the magic folklore of the ancients. Upon inquiry this sty cure was found to be a common superstition. The basis of the superstition is, evidently, that very old magic srmbollsm which is attached to the ring nnd which has been variously explained by many learned writers, hut never quite satisfactorily. Possibly some of the explanations given are correct but It looks as if primitive man had something in the "back of his mind" with regard to the ring which hss been lost to his descendants. "For who hath known the ways of time or trodden behind his feet?" f That the most sacred sort of a ring to us moderns Is a wedding ring explains why in curing the sty a wedding ring should he used. There Is more thnn a hint of sun worship In the superstition under consideration In that the wedding rlnr is of gold, the color of the sun nnd round like the sun's disc. Also the tnklnc of the ring in the left hand, and the movement of the hand over the head from left to right, or sunwise—the "ceremonial circuit"—emphasizes the sun " m o t i f In the "cure." There Is a lonely obelisk In Central park whose gilded apex still catches and reflects the morning light as it did when It stood before the temple of Ra at HelU opolis and sent back the beams of the rising day across the desert sands while within the fane the priests, moving In the "ceremonial circuit," adored their god. From Heliopolis In 3900 B. C. to these United States! It is a "far cry"; and a long journey has the old obelisk made* through the centuries'and across the seas! Yet if that granite mass were sentient would It not think that the old gods were not entirely dead when beneath It walks some nursery maid telling her companion how she had cur?d her sty by using a wedding ring in the "ceremonial circuit"?

T h e difference between a cloth coat this season and a fur coat Is that the cloth coat has » little less fur than the all-fur coat observes a fashion writer in the Kansas O t y Stur. The long stole collar*, the deep shawl collar, cavalier cutfs. and panels of fur on the skirts all bring the quota of fur (and let it also be said the price) Of a fur-trimmed cloth cuut very close to that of the fur coat. The beauty of the cloth coat trimmed in fur has been brought almost to a state of perfection by the designers. <Jreens trimmed with rich brown fur, red coats with collars of skunk, fvx scarfs on slim wrap-around coats, black caracul on black broadcloth all testify to the perfection of blended turs and fabrics or to the use of contrasting effects. The coat silhouette is by no means confined to the wrap-around effects; the*\ip-e coat is smart. So is the coat that has fullness above the waistline and confined at snugly fitted hips. The black coat and the red dress is a smart ensemble, so Is that which takes contrast into consideration. The green coat, green dress and green hat are perfectly blended in this season's mode, so are the browns and the tans and other fashionable shades. Natural lynx, pastel and white foxes, wolverine, leopard, ermine, mink and sable., are accented. Evening wraps of metallic brocades or velvet also added their quota of fur?, some elaborate styles being augmented by rich all-over embroideries and borders of fringe. Fur wraps are often on dolman lines. Long stoles of sable, wrapped several times around the throat, are Interesting additions to several of the costumes. Fringe, often used In sections headed by squares of embroidery, was important, and Jeweled pins, bowknots, or ornaments added brilliance to many gowns, posed at hip, shoulder, or at the center front.

Late Fashion Bulletins From Paris and New York The new geometric influence is as* suming increasing importance. Many of the latest Paris creations, not only in sport wear and daytime frocks but in evening gowns by Vionnet, Chanel and other leading French houses, are sharply geometric both in cut and design, according to advices from the Paris bureau of Harper's Bazar. The New York shops this season show widely varied examples of this mode. Many of the imaginative beaded motifs used on the new evening gowns are applied in geometric configuration. The sport ensemble is being featured both In Paris and New York, and may be expected to continue. Patou, Vlonnett and Chanel are among the Paris houses emphasizing this most serviceable costume. In fact, the pport movement continues to be an important fashion factor, affecting all phases of the daytime mode. The top-heavy silhouette, In Its many manifestations, Is ^claiming an Important place In this season's mode. Martial and Armand achieve this shoulder accent in a sleeveless gown by means of a short cape. Low-backed evening gowns, Introduced from leading Parts have become a definite BOSS ts> ska mode, according to Harper's S a s a r . All Important New York stetos are preparing to show taHwetoed models through the season. Bouffant skirts for the evening* gown are meeting occasional favor. A wide, draped hip-girdle Is being sometimes used. The sport Influence that has so strongly dominated daytime apparel Is beginning to show Itself here and there In evening wear. Several authoritative New York houses are showing evening gowns suggestive of the two-piece sport frock. A new version of the bolero is rapidly gaining In popularity for the coming season and is considered extremely Important. Drecoll sponsors the long bolero which is favored for daytime wear.

In the opinion of Baron de Meyer, world-famous fashion authority, It i s because American women dress for their men while European women dress chiefly for other women. Writing from Parts for Harper's Bazaar, Baron de Meyer s a y s : "American women principally dress to please their men. American men, however, never analyse a woman's gown. They are not Interested In why a dress Is smart If the general appearance Is smart. "The majority of Paris women do not dress to court masculine admiration only, but principally to be appreciated (shall we say envied?) by other well-dressed women. Women being more difficult to satisfy tfcss men, the ladles of Paris are consequently living op to mach higher standards. Therefore, they are mach better dressed,** Another reason given by D e Meyer for the European women's superior elegance la that while American women "only actively think of new clothes twice a year, European women order few d o t h e s s t s time hut replenish their wardrobe ail the year round.

K Lefors, Texaa.—This quaint town In northeast Texas has so many distinctions they must be enumerated In some kind of sequence. Among these are the following: Lefors Is the smallest county seat 1B Texas. Lefors boasts that It Is the only county seat without a Jail. The Jail has been leased to a neighboring town. Though located on an otherwise treeless plain, the town is hard by a forest of giant cotton woods. This fact leads to another distincjf tion. The town has the only saw mill In a territory larger than half a dozen northern' or eastern states. There are no other saw mills out on the plains because there is no wood to •aw. > . The water wells are only nine feet deep in Lefors. But perhaps the most Interesting facts are these: The cottonwood trees fetar grapes and virtually all the resits drink grape juice the year 1, and although fifty years old v£felt town's cemetery contains only Jgtp graves. Jtttjr the town Is the Valley of Lemt^ t formed by a branch of the Red river, which separates Texas from Oklahoma. This valley gives the impression that It is a corner of Japan or an Imaginary kingdom in a dream. While the plains may be swept by cold winds, and the frost may creep down from the north, the Valley of Lefors Is warm and cozy behind Its rock wall shelter. The towering cottonwoods do not actually bear graphs, but they support the wild grape vines that entwine them and hang down like veils. Here in protected dells grow fruits of all kinds, and the cherry blossoms enhance the Nipponese picture. From t h e wild grape vines, a great crop of grapes is harvested every year. The juice of the grape is found la every home hereabouts. When a man wants a well here be procures a post hole digger, bores down about nine feet and obtains clear, sparkling water. For a generation Lefors has gone on drinking its grape Juice and sawing its wood, and now oil is beginning to touch it with tnagto of life. The oil boom in the Panhandle Is reaching Into Gray county, of which Lefors is the exact geographical center. The town with Its dreamy valley 1s perking up. The cottonwoods aire being transformed into new boraes.

There is much difference of opinion, but whatever happens will be an improvement for the ports located on Lake Ontario. Here is one of the finest bodies of water In the world, 200 miles long by 40 wide. Surrounded on all sides by rich country and teeming cities, It ought to be alive with commerce. But the ordinary view of Lake Ontario la as lifeless as the picture of the "painted ship upon a painted ocean." Imprisoned by Fails, Rapid*. Nature played a mean trick on Lake Ontario. It made her the connecting link between two of the most famous rivers In the world—the Niagara and the S t Lawrence—but the falls of Niagara and the rapids of the St. Lawrence, which millions of people have come from the ends of the earth to see, have isolated and Imprisoned Ontario. Great ocean liners come up the SJ. Lawrence to Montreal and stop. Great liners of the inland 6eas cruise Superior, Huron, Michigan and Erie, but they stop when they approach the mouth of the Niagara river. It Is true both the Niagara and the S t Lawrence have been canalized, but the ships than can be accommodated are small and the trips through the locks tiresome. The new Welland canal will be revolutionary in its capacity. Instead of a draft of 12 or 14 feet it will provide a draft of 25 feet, which can be deepened to 30 feet Instead of 27 locks, it will have only 7 tocks, and 3 of these will be double locks in night, enabling boats to ascend and descend. Instead of 12 to 18 hours now required to get through the canal the passage wil be made in 8 hours or less. Ships of 12,000 tons, good-sized ocean liners, will be able to make the Niagara detour with ease.. Ontario Ports Looking Up. A great milling industry has grown up at Buffalo, N. Y., and Port Colborne, Ont., 'because all the larger grain ships from the head of the lakes were stopped by Niagara. Now all the ports .at the eastern end of Lake <intarlo ami getting ready to capture or at least 6hare in this trade. The large boats will be able to get down the S t Lawrence as far as Prescott, Omt, and Ogdensburg, N. Y., but as £he channel through the Thousand islands i s tricky the ports of Kingston, iijkat* and Oswego, N. Y., are more j t a e r a l l y favored. Kingston, one of the most ancient cities in Canada, is preparing for a great revival. Montreal also hopes to benefit Freight rates" for the all-Canadian roufco will, it is hoped, be lowered ((through as to this there is some doubt) and Montreal will be able to compete on more favorable terms with the Atlantic American ports. In any case, AIo.ntr.eal hopes to become a great milling center. Toronto, in anticipation of the canals, has spent $20,000,000 on a harbor development and even If the achievement -of ocean port status is delayed it hopes by more accessible coal and ore supplies to establish on its harbor front large new industries. By the end of the present season 80 per ceat of the new Welland canal undertaking will be completed. By 1930 at the iatest It will be ready for traffic. The coat will be welil under $100,- 000.000.

Ogden, Utah- Boasting that she has tht largest posterity of any woman In the country, Mrts. Sarah Jane Taylor of Harrisvllle recently celebrated her ninety-second birthday. She has 308 living descendants, who include 8 children, 50 grandchildren, 1SD greatgrandchildren and 01 great-greatgrandchildren. She has challenged any woman in the country to show a larger number of lineal descendants and Is anxious to correspond with any such woman. Mrs. Taylor hus been married twice, the first time when she was only sixteen. The marriage was with Bailey Lake, a fellow Mormon convert whom the young girl met on her way to Utah in 1860. They settled in Ogden where four children were born. When the youngest was stil! a baby Brigham Young pressed Mr. I^ake into service and sent him to Idaho to spread the Mormon gospel among the Indians. With the other Mormon elders at Fort Lemhi, Lake was attacked by Indians. The little garrison, besieged, sent Lake as a messenger for help. He was ambushed and killed In the Malad mountains. A few years later his widow was married to the late Pleasant Greea Taylor. Six children, four of them still living, were born from this union. Mrs. Taylor was born in Port Gibson, Miss., November 12, 1834. She has the distinction of being one of the few remaining Mormons who crossed the plains In oxcarts in the early fifties. She was among the religious followers who left the northern part of the state and went south when General Johnston's army came to Utah to subdue Brigham Young. WAS TOO OLD FOR DREAMS By H. M. EGBERT * — i r a (Cuyyrlght by W U Cbaumaa.) "A Eat in Darkness as Health Aid, Says Doctor London.—With so much stress being laid on the virtues of artificial sunlight, special Interest attaches te the announcement, made by a prominent London doctor, that we do not sufficiently consider the health value of darkness. The authority state* that In his opinion many of the Ills that have their origin in digestive troubles a r e traceable to the too lavish use of light at meals. Brilliant lighting, he asserts, Is harmful in dining rooms, restaurants and other places where meals are partaken. Our digestive processes, on the perfect working of which human health and happiness so largely depend, a r t interfered with by the extra stimulant provided by garish lighting. T%e demands made on the senses by such factors as bright lights and arresting sounds mean that blood is drawn from the stomach to the brain and muscles, and the assimilation of food naturally suffers. According to this authority the best light for m<-a1 times Is that given by shaded ennrile*.

Why, Dick, you must be making your cool four thousand, and if your hrm went bust you could get just as good a Job anywhere. And forty-five if you're a a day. Ain't you never had a girl, Dick?" Dick Slttlngwell moved In his seat uneasily. "Cut it out, I tell you," he answered ferociously. "Hello! Bourne End! Here's where I get off. So long, old man! See you next week as usual." Dick Slttlngwell had had plenty of girls when he was a young man, but somehow all his romances had come to an untimely end. And it was only within the last two years that a new romance, sweeter than any, and more strange, had come into his life. He never spoke about Miss Elsie Van Nugent. It had never entered his mind that he could speak to her without profaning her. That was his sanctuary, his holy of holies. And marriage with her was something of which he had never dreamed. Their acquaintance had begun by an accident. Dick, tolling up the hill at Bourne End on a hot summer day, with his sample case In his hand, had seen the old maid standing at the gate of her garden. He looked up at the big house in the village, and, taking her for the housekeeper, said: "Might I ask you for a glass of water, ma'am?" "I'll get yoa one," stammered Miss Van Nugent, and ran away, or rather burried away, returning with a glass as clear and cold as if it had come from some Olympian spring. Dick quaffed It at a draft. ! "Much obliged, ma'am." he said, and ! raised his hat and wen* away. He did not Imagine what a romance that was to Elsie Van Nugent. | Afterward, upon succeeding Jour- ' neys. It often happened that he saw I Miss Elsie at the gate. Then he would 1 nod pleasantly and pass a remark. By I degrees their Intimacy Increased. Dick Slttlngwell would often stay as Ion? as five minutes, talking and looking wistfully at the big house in the coo! grounds. He learned Miss Elsie's name at the hotel. She owned the place, and was the daughter of the i late squire. She was an old maid— ^anjS they s«Md, maliciously, that she was forty. Plan to Revive Whaling Off California Coast San Dleco. Calif—After a hiatus of more than half a century whaling operations are to be resumed on an extensive scale on the southern California coast.

The missile Is 'burled abou' ten feet and the bole, which Is about twelve Inches In diameter. Indicates that it must have been whirling at a great rate of speed when it struck. "My wife and I were reading in t h e front room when my atw tentlon was attracted by what 1 it thought resembled a £ l a r of n flame," Turner said. *At first 1 believed the bouse was afire and I rushed out of doors, but I found nothing." Turner plans to send the missile to the government laboratories a t Toronto for examination. &••••• wsMssyim •••••••>»•< ii Elsie Van Nugent had never married because she had taken care of her father until tils death, when «he was thirty-seven. No opportunities came after that. Opportunities for marriage ' are few in New England among women whom birth has made superior to the rest of the community. And. besides, Elsie was already growing into a typl-cal old maid. She was becoming angular snd thin, there were gray streaks In her hair, and she knew quite well that whatever beauty she had ever possessed was already gone beyond recovery. Her life had been utterly cramped Her bookish learning had never been modified by contact with the world, for her father had always been a recluse, and. in his last days, a fretful Invalid. When she met the drummer she thought him a typical man of the ; world. | The acquaintance wns a wonderful thing to her. She felt guilty In stealing down to the garden gate when ! Dick was coming that way—Thursdays he always appeared In Bourne End. She Invented little excuses at first to account for her presence there. Wistfully she thought how she would like to ask him In. But she never dared. It wns not only fear of what the neighbors would say, but fear of what he would think of her. It was odd that the uncouth drummer should exercise so strange a fascination over the old maid, but It was equally strange that he should find In her his ideal of womanhood. Two or three years passed, and their Intimacy stayed exactly where it was. Neither dared to Increase It. or to venture to speak of the thoughts In the heart Dick was becoming balder and stouter, and Elsie more withered and lean. Then came the day when Dick was amazed to see the house closed and n big "For Sale" sign In front of It The town was buzzing with the news. Miss Elsie's lawyer, who had had charge of her property, had absconded, taking with him her whole available fortune, ten thousand dollars. Miss Elsie had remained secluded tn the house since the Monday before. Dick hesitated only a moment; then he went Into the garden and knocked at the door. lit Miss Elsie herself opened It and stood watching him through her tearstained lashes. She looked less beautiful than ever at that moment, with her reddened eyelids nnd her disordered hair. "It's too bad, ma'am,'* said Dick. "Just heard the news and called to say bow sorry I was." "1 suppose It's what they call life," answered Miss Elsie. "1 hope, ma'am, you aren't planning to sell the place because of that?" *I certainly am. It'i aM that I hare I left now.* "Might 1 task your price, oqe^'aisf Inquired Dick. "Kight thousand dollar*," angwereo Mlstj Elsie listlessly. "It ought 10 b* more, but ttv± house is vary old, and that's what I'm advised to hold it fur." Dick thought hurriedly. He knew that would mean about three thousand cash mid a mortgage. Dick was worth about three thousand ; he could arrange the details. "I'll buy It," he announced. -you!" gasped Elsie. "Yes, ma'am. You see, I've had mj eye on the place for a long time, In the hopes you might sotue day sell.' The words struck her like a blow be tween the eyes. So that was the secret of his Interest. The vanity oi her dreams! "I suppose you can have it, then," he heard her answer vaguely. "Everything in It as it stands, lock stock and barrel?" asked Dick. "Why, I guess the furniture's no! worth much," said Miss Elsie. "You'll have to see my brother, Mr. Van Nugent, at Staples, lie has charge of the matter." "But If he is willing, you are?" persisted Dick. "Yes," she replied. Dick withdrew. He wanted to hide the elution in his heart, that set it pounding frightfully as he reflected upon his maneuver. He clenched his fists as he thought of the lawyer. He had known Sharpies well; the man was a convivial person at the hotel. "If ever I run across him, I'll break his head," he swore. IV And Dick ran across him tne following week In the most amazing way. He was sent out to a western city to cover a territory left vacant by the Illness of a fellow drummer. The business done, Dick retired to his room In the hotel. A door opened softly, and Dick saw the head and shoulders of Sharpies In a minute he had leaped across t h t passage and entered, before the law yer could draw the bolt. Sharpies stared at Dick In terror. "What do you want?" he snarled. "You know," said Dick. Sharpies realized that It was no time to make pretenses. "It's not your business," he swaggered, "but I'll give you five hundred to get out and keep your mouth shut." "You'll give me ten thousand for Miss Van Nugent," answered Dick. "It never was ten thousand." "It's going to be." "D'you suppose I've got It about me, you fool?" Dick went to the telephone and touched the receiver. The Inwyer grabbed him by the arm. "I'll give you two." he hlustpred. Dick turned and fticed him. "1 said ten. and meant It." he returned. "And see here! I premised myself the pleasure of breaking your head. However, I guess T can't have everything. Will you hand over that ten thousAd, for the last time?" The lawyer took a hill case out of his pocket and mechanically counted out the money. Therp were twenty hilts of five hundred apiece. Dick examined them ; they were genuine enough. "I guess you've plenty more," .be said. "It's where you won't get It." Dick' smiled and slipped the bills Into his pocket. "So, yon see, I gupss T can't buy the place after all," Dick explained to Miss Elsie 89 he hdnded her th* money. She was crying softly. "I don't know what to say or how to thank you." she sobbed. "It's wonderful. It's wonderful 1" And In her happiness, more at the proof of his interest than at the return of the money, tho years seemed to fall from .Miss Elsie, and there was almost n girlish flush upon her face. Dick breathed heavily. "I mess Tm sorry we can't carry out our arrangement." he mumbled. "It wasn't the place I wanted, but the contents, as we agreed." "The furniture? Do you really wan* that?" "No," stammered Dick. "I wanted you." And with amazing daring he tool Miss Elsie In his arms and kissed her Christmas Joys 6rocking* filled w i t h Santa's gifts. Smiling faces. Merry laughter.

'NfciT rlOOL PWKJ XT one who has ever motored through the quaint sleepy towns of New England has fallen In lore with the small houses that abound In that section of the country—neat, white, tmpreteatious and with a touch of roserre about them. Just such a house la the one pictured here. It is equally adaptable for town or country, and by merely Jhlft- >g the living and entrance porches around can be built on a wide or narrow lot without spoiling it architecturally. The house Is sturdily built and has an exterior of wood siding except for the unusual stucco panels that start at the level of the second door windows. The roof is of stained shingles, pref* erably moss green, in keeping with the window shutters. A house of this compact^ style Is very easy to heat, especially when the specifications call for insulation throughout with celotex, which prevents heat leakage, and keeps the house cool in the summer.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD WITH the prospect of a surplus In the government treasury of about $500,000,000 on July 1, 1927, the Democrats in congress are loudly demanding that a general tax reduction bill be passed at this session. But the majority members of the all-powerful ways and means committee of the house will not agree even to President Coolidge's suggestion that there be a temporary reduction In the Income tax payable next year. It has definitely decided that no tax legislation whatever shall he Introduced during the short session, adopting what it called the alternative plan of the President, that the surplus should be applied toward reduction of the public debt. This latter plan for disposal of the huge sum of money, the Kepubllcun leaders hold, will Inure to the benefit of all taxpayers, whereas, as Senator Smoot asserted, the flat percentage cut In Income taxes would mainly only a few large corporations. the *4aa of the Republicans the vMiDC^M dtrrlag the fiscal year Ulli reick} lee bsge lotal of approximately n .076*800^000. wfcleli, with the single excepttoa of the year following the close of the war* artll be the greatest amount of debt retirement accomplished Ir. any similar period thus far. Senators Swanson. Harrison. Copehand and King all arose In the senate Wednesday to protest against the decision of the Republicans. Swanson •aid tax legislation was being sidetracked wit)) the deliberate view of reducing taxes next year shortly In advance of the1 Presidential election. Copeland said the administration was guilty of "legalized larceny" in collecting upward of $.'00,000,000 more ftioney in taxes than needed, without providing some method of refunding the surplus to the taxpayers. Senator Harrison demanded that the Democrats and Republicans forget partisan differences long enough to enact a bill reducing taxes at this session. WHEN the house passed the treasury appropriation measure It scotched the plan of Ass.stant Secretary Andrews to obtain $.'00,000 for the payment of prohibition spies to be expended without accounting. Last week General Andrews tried to have this provision re-inserted In the bill in the senate, but Senator Bruce raised a point of order and was warmly supported by other eminent wets, and again the scheme was defeated. The employment of spies In enforcement of the prohibition law was roundly denounced; but of course what killed the plan was that the clause in question, permitting advances from the enforcement fund, would violate a federal statute and also was an attempt to legislate in an appropriation bill. A 4 WAS related last week, the house naval affairs committee dlsoovered that the budget bureau estimates for naval construction during the coming year make no provision for completion of the 1024 cruiser nulldlng program or for the building of two dirigibles authorized by congress. I n e committeemen were angry. and their Ire was Increased when Secretary of the Navy Wilbur submitted his annual report showing how the administration's retrenchment policy was cramping and crippling the navy. Wherefore the committee, by unanimous vote, sent Chairman Butler to the White House with a letter which. though secret, wa Known to appeal to the President fi-r his sanction for Immediate action to ouild up the navy to the limit fixed by the 5-5-8 Washington treaty. The committeemen •ay the navy Is now in third place i fast falling ipproxlmately to fourth place. 1500,000,000 to. .bring it up to Its rl( Igth.

The procedure of the uiiuee is without precedent. v V river comHEN the senate took up the and harbor bill, included In which is authorization for the development of the lower Illinois river as part of the lakes-to-the-gulf waterway, the senators from states thdt have been fighting Chicago's diversion of lake water for the sanitary canal threatened & filibuster because they feared the measure would approve of that diversion. However, the leaders of both sides in the controversy held an all-day conference and Wednesday night reached a compromise which seemed to assure the speedy passage of the bill. It was agreed that this amendment should be inserted: "Provided that nothing in this act shall be construed as authorizing any diversion of water from Lake Michigan." D ISREOARDING all warnings. Governor Small of Illinois on Thursday appointed Frank L. Smith, senator-elect, to till out the unexpired term of the late Senator McKInley. It was expected that Mr. Smith would go to Washington in a few days and attempt to take the seat, and that the Democrats and some Republicans would undertake to exclude him because of the slush-fund scandal attached to his primary campaign. The Republican leaders had hoped that this fight would not be brought on until next session because if precipitated now it would delay necessary legislation. Mr. Smith had indicated that he wished to present his defense to the senate at this time, but he was warned that if possible an immediate vote on the question of admitting him would be had, so he would have no chance. Governor Small declared that In appointing Smith he was following the wishes of the Illinois electorate as expressed at the polls In November, and that not a charge of undue Influence or corruption at that election has been made. Senator Ashurst of Arizona introduced a resolution designed to prevent Smith from taking his seat. Ing for confirmation of their concessions, Luis Morones, minister of Industry and commerce, was in warm controversy last week with the Standard Oil company over the questioa whether or not its representative had made such application. The Association of Producers of Petroleum in Mexico, meeting in New York, stood pat on its opposition to the Mexican law. CHANCELLOR MARX and Foreign; Minister Stresemann are not having an easy time maintaining their majority In the reichstag, but Marx is defiant. Last week he offered an alliance to the Socialists, promising to give them representation in the cabinet, and they refused. When he told this to the reichstag the Nationalists abused him and left the chamber. Phlllpp Scheidemann, Socialist leader, attacked the cabinet bitterly, especially Minister of Defense Gessler. H^ charged that a secret fund existed In the budget for the manufacture and hoarding of arms and airplanes in Russia. He asserted that the allies knew all about "the rotten militaristic conditions In Germany" and added: "We might as well correct these conditions ourselves as have the allies act for us." All of which was nuts for the French opponents of Brland's policy of conciliation. Bridge to Link N.'Y. and Jersey • * - »**«»*•*•< REL Ft A KRE a t a r LBERT R. FALL, former secrey of the interior, and Edward L, Doheny. oil magnate, are not guilty of conspiring to defraud the government in connection with the leases of the naval oil reserve at Elk Hills, Calif. Such was the verdict of the jury that heard the case against the two men In the Supreme court of the District of Columbia The celebrated case, involving the leasing of the naval reserve oil lands to Doheny and the $100,000 transaction between them while Fall was secretary of the interior in lU'Jl. had been on trial for 23 days, with 17 lawyers dealing In a great mass of technical evidence. The Jury deliberated for many hours and brought in its verdict of acquittal on Thursday morning. Counsel for the government at once took up the second of the oil lease criminal cases. In this one Fall and Harry F. Sinclair are the defend ants and it involves the lease of the Teapot Dome oil field to Sinclair's company. D ERATE on the agricultural bill In the house Wednesday served to give the Lowden Presidential boom an airing. Representative Dickinson of Iowa alluded to the Illinotsan as a leading champion of the new McNary bill for farm relief, and Mr. Howard of Nebraska asked the Iowan if "his candidate" was not a little beyond the desiraMe age for a President. Mr. Dickinson retorted that the two-term limit for Presidents was of more concern to the American people than the age of a President W ARNTNG to ELATIONS between Italy and ranee continue rather strained and movements of French troops t o ^ ward the frontier are going on, while by January 12, it is expected, the entire French fleet will be in the Mediterranean. Mussolini stated recently that he had 30 divisions north of the Po river. Of course no one predicts actual warfare, but everyone is nervous. The Italian government also has annoyed Great Britain by failing to Invite the British fleet to visit Italian ports during its maneuvers in the Mediterranean early next year. TURKEY, with both Italy and England in mind. Is trying to arrange protecting alliances. A London cor respondent says: "Within the last few days Turkey has offered an offensive and defensive alliance to Persia on the same lines as the treaty it recently made with Afghanistan. Great Britain is LOW subsidizing Persia through the Anglo-Persian Oil com pany to the tune of £4,000.000 ($20,- 000,000) annually, but It will have to do even better if it wishes to keep Persia, which is threatened by Turkey, Russia, and Afghanistan, in tine." D ISPATCHES from Barcelona say another conspiracy to assassinate King Alfonso and Dictator de Rivera has been discovered in Madrid and many of the plotters arrested. They had planned to shoot the pre mier from a closed motor car In front of his office and then to kill the king with grenades when he was attending Gen. de Rivera's funeral. O FFICIAL announcement Is mad^ in Warsaw that the Polish army now has 258.095 soldiers and 179,000 officers, and that the navy has 2,124 sailors and 236 officers. These forces. which do not include the militarized police, will cost about $76,500,000 in 1927. With the police and the special guards on the Russian and Lithuanian frontiers. Poland has nearly 400,000 men under arms. It Is thus the greatest military power in central Europe, with an army four times as big as Germany's and really much stronger than Russia's. Greatest Structure of Kind Ever Conceived to Coat $60,000,000. New York.—Tne proposed Hudson river bridge between: upper Manhattan and Fort Lee, N. J.—the greatest structure of its kind ever conceived— moved definitely Into the realm of actuality when the port authority completed details of the $60,000,000 financing program Involved in Its construction. Before actual work la begun, It will be necessary to obtain the approval of the secretary of war, and tenders for the bonds are being accepted with a proviso to this effect. Application, it is said by officials of the port authority, has already been tiled, asking such authorization. Work to Start Early In 1927. The completion of the financial details for the Hudson span and the issuance of bond proposals means, it is believed, that the actual construction work will get under way early in 1927. Its effect is to place at the disposal of the port authority sufficient funds to complete half of the project or to carry the work along until 1929 or 1930. In addition to the $20,000,000 to be raised by the initial public offering of bonds there will be available $10,- 000,000 in advance by the two states. New York and New Jersey, by legislative act, have agreed to furnish $5,- 000,000 apiece at the rate of $1,000,000 a year for five years. These advances will be repaid after the completion of the structure out of its surplus toll revenues. The entire cost of the project Is placed finally In the latest resolution of the port authority at $50,000,000, a figure which, that body finds, will provide for the bridge, Its terminals, and from four to six lanes of approach. The authorization of $60,000,000 in bonds is made with the idea of Increasing the capacity of the approaches and enlarging the structure to its ultimate limits at a later date if deemed advisable. Under the agreement entered Into with the port authority, It is revealed In the resolution Just adopted, the states agree not to authorize any crossings for vehicular traffic that will come into competition with the new bridge. They agree, further, to provide for ample toll rates to maintain and operate the sprn and to provide service on its bonded indebtedness. The states' advances will be paid back out of surplus at the rate of at least 2 per cent on the principal if such surplus is earned, otherwise on a pro rata basis, with deficits being made up from year to year. Greatest Span In World. The bridge will be far and away the most gigantic span ever undertaken by man, It will be two and one-half times the size of the Brooklyn bridge and twice the size of the recently opened Philadelphia-Camden bridge over the Delaware. Its unsupported section will measure 3,586 feet—approximately two-thirds of a mile—and its tower will rise almoBt to tbe height of the Woolworth building— 660 feet. The clearance for vessels will be 206 feet, which U more than 70 feet more than the regulation requirements. The New York end will be In the neighborhood of One Hundred Seventy-ninth street There will be three stages of constructlon of the structure, according to Robert A- Lasher, traffic engineer of the port authority. The first of these will be the opening of traffic lanes on each side of the bridge, which will accommodate two lines of vehicles both easterly and westerly. After that the center lanes for four additional lines will be opened up.

S. w- Ileana of Rumania Twice Met Her Prince Charming, West Point Adonis New York.—Ileana, princess of Rumania, met a Prince Charming on the first days of her arrival on the shores of this democratic land. It is a modern fairy tale with all Its whimsical, romantic settings, only in this case the tale is true. The story begins soon after the arrival of Ileana with her mother, Queen Marie of Rumania, and her brother, Prince Nikolas. It will be remembered that one of the first of the series of social receptions was a dance at West Point. Here la where the first chapter .begins and ends, to be followed by two more. Two Cadet Escorts Selected. Brig. Gen. M. B. Stewart, superintendent of West Point, looked about for proper escorts for the princess. He selected two cadets, both honor men in the class. One was Cadet Lieutenant Wlll.'am J. Glasgow of Washington, the other Cadet Captain Henry G. Douglas of Bel Air, Md. Glasgow Is the manager of the army soccer team, while Douglas is the regimental supply officer, Both are handsome. Glasgow is considered the Adonis of the academy. It was evident It did not take the princess long to make her choice. And the first one to notice it was Douglas. He danced with her once or twice tactfully, then retired gracefully to the background, leaving his classmate and friend a clear field. After several dances with Cadet Glasgow, the princess herself suggested a retreat for fresh air and a view of the moon and the great palisades. The evening, as In all fairy tales, came to an end all too soon, but when the princess sho^k hands warmly in farewell it did not mean good-by. Through all the 10.000-miIe cross country tour Ileana did not forget Two days before sailing she sufficiently overcame her timidity to ask Paul D. Cravath, who represented the queen In some threatened lawsuit for alleged breach of contract, to arrange for young Glasgow to come to New York to take luncheon with her. A Prince** Thwarted—Almost. Mr. Cravath at once got in touch with General Stewart. Probably for the first time Ileana's wish was thwarted. The commandant said "No!** b u t true to fairy-tale fashion, Ileana found a way. Could she come to West Point and have Mr. Glasgow take luncheon with her there? "Yes," said General Stewart, for even cadets favored by princesses must be allowed to ea' some time. And so the metaphorical "monn tain" went to Mohammed. Tn ordl nary prose, the meeting took place at the Thayer hotel. West Point.

This happy prediction is made possible by bobbed hair statistics recently compiled In Paris to the effect that the annual Income derived from bobbed haired madames in France by French hairdressers Is little short of four bilMon frtocr (roughly speaking 1125,000,000). • This iCDoanl l e s s e n e d by allowing SB sversgs somber of 24 haircuts and HP* permanent hair waves a year to a person, which is putting It mildly. Besides bobbing, female hair requires waving, and this estimate is based upon two permanent hair waves per annum, each wave being supposed to last from five to six months and costing from 150 to 600 franca, af which the average cost multiplied by two—one of each period of six months—is 650 francs per annum. These two# bllls, one eich for bobbing and waving, which do not include accessories such as shampoos, hair maaaagea, or an occasional and discreet application of peroxide, when added together make tbe total cost of each bolj reach 1,422 franca (about HO) per year per person.

By ELMO SCOTT WATSON T WAS Mr. W. E. Henley—he of the "Invlcius" verse—who once wrote something to the effect that "into the niffht go one and all." That was a great many years ago, but he might have been talking about American sport champions and 1926. For the past vear has 9ien more crowns Jarred off athletic brows een the case In many a year diet hltherto-lnvlncihles went «*ad the dawn of the new fleck of new chame. And at the same time they're casting sfrprehepsive glances over their shoulders to see vnttt formidable contenders for their honors are totlWH» up the slope to push them from ihelr posltioeaV of smlaoHoe during the next twelve months. Look over the record presented la wiiin and you will see that In nearer of sport, the title changed hands once aome cases more ihan once. Baseball is proverbially the national game and It saw a new champion acclaimed in one of the most thrilling World Series ever played In this country. The Pittsburgh Pirates of the National league, 1925 champions, lost out In the flag race to the St. Louis Cardinals who had never before won first honors. The Washington Senators of the American league, 1924 champions and contestants In 1925, lost out to the New York Yankees, who have been league champions three times and who held the title of world champions as lately as 1923. For that reason they went Into the seven-game series with the Cardinals favorites. But Manager Rogers Hornsby and his men won a thrilling eleventh-hour victory which gave St. Louis her first championship In many years and a chance to stage a celebration by her citizens which was strongly reminiscent of the scenes of wild joy which prevailed all over the country on November 11, 1918. Even though Rogers Hornsby did lead his Cards to a team championship he lost an individual title. He has been batting champion In the National league for manyv years, but In 1926, he had to band ove«* his cpe)wia to Bubbles Hargrave of 3obby Jon&s Jftt*rrr* frot«/ >%/• I I 1 1 M U I 1 1 I 1 1 I I U 1 1 I 1 I 1 I 1 11 1 1 1 I I -r HERE'S THE 1926 CASUALTY LIST '.'. the Cincinnati M f c similar change- Detroit TMm*i that clsdiriti the American league a Harry Heilman of the © of batting champ In he had the satisfaction Detroit for* he was de» •S*s sT tLiWMlfe' •Jhjr IMftffe Manush, a team mate Mmore than In any other sport was ig of thrones and the falling of crowns From early spring until late in the ring saw a steady procession of old I Stepping down and new ones stepping when Harry Greh, the middleweight beaten by Tiger Flowers* domatch, got it and with it an- In the welterweight class Mickey f*efd the title for three years, Dave >lred to the title but Mickey disposed '-Then along came Pete Latzo, whom t t f beaten once.

( Dempsey's defeat was probably the blppest sportIIIR upset of the year, but jrolf and teiinlfc) furnished twn others and saw the dethroning of two champions almost as universally known as Jack Dempsey. They were Hl« Bill Tllden and Bobby Jones. In golf Bobby Jones, the At lunta (da.) youngster, bad won a distinction never before attained by an exponent of the game. He held three championships, the British Open, the American Open and the American Amateur. To win the first he had dethroned Long Jim Barnes, to tuke the second he bad beaten Willie MacFarlane and when he came to defend his title in the third, everything seemed favorable for his continuing to enjoy the unique distinction of triple .chankpAop. But on the field at Baltusrol George Von Kim of Los Angeles played superior tfolf and, when he finished '2 up and 1 to play, Bobby'* reign was over. Just as Bobby Jones, the outstanding flk'itra among men golfers, went down in defeat, so did Glenna Collert. the premier woman golfer, bow to another. Miss Collett had been amateur national women's champion twice and had f.eld all sorts of sectional championship*. Then nlonjj came Miss Virginia Wilson, a twetUyyear-olri girl from Chicago, to "bump off" (Henna in the thi*d round of the national play 3 up and 2 to play, And then Mrs. G, Henry Stetson defeated Miss Wilson and won the title. In tennis tbe full of Big Bill Tllden was rvlmost as dramatic as that of Bobby Jones or Jack Dempsey. Up until this year he seertfed supreme in his field. But the 1926 Jinx for champions got in Its work on him early. He lout the indoor national championship to Bene Ln(>)ste, a Frenchman. Then Vincent Richards be it him In preliminary tournaments and In the Davis ("up matches £a Coste was again victor over Tilden. Then came the supreme test—the national amateur matches and In five hard-fought sets Big Bill was forced to bow to another Frenchman. Henri Cochet. When ID"-" opened Suzanne I.mtflen was unofficial tennis champion of the world and she retained the title by defeating Helen Wills at Cannes early In tht? year. She continued her victorious march through the Wimbledon notches (for appendicitis had prevented "Littlf Poker Face" irom another attempt to wre*t' 'be tifJe from Suzanne) and then voluntarily nbdlcnted her amateur title hy turning professional when C. C. Pyle, who first sprang in the sport limelight by commercializing the gridiron prowess of Red Grange, "th*j Galloping Ghost." persuaded her that many American dollars awaited her appearance in this country. In wrestling the major title changed hands with considerable rapldi'v. As the New Year of 1925 dawned Wayne Munn, ihe big Xebraskan, wore the crown because he had tossed Strangler Lewis ont of the ring and defeated him. Then the Strangler staged a come-back with his celebrated headlock and beat Munn. But before he could get the crown firmly adjusted. Joe Stecher of Iowa came along and lifted it from his head and hurried to a mirror to take a look at himself in his new chapesu. Ivan Podubno, the European champion, came to our shores anj made an attempt to adjust the same millinery to his head. But Joe wasn't ready to give it up yet and he still wears it. In 1926 Paavo Nurmi, the "Flying Finn,- was the sensation of the running track and was hailed as the world's greatest distance runner. But 1928 brought an end to his victories. He was beaten by another Finn, F. Llevendahl and Edvia Wide, a German, has threatened his general supremacy. Doctor Pelser, snot her German, not only beat Nurmi in the 1..VK) m»ter run In record time hot he also took another title when he b*»at Douglas Lowe, an Englishman, to the tsoe snd Lowe had beaten the best of the American middle distance runners. In motor boat racing, in horse racing, in skating, old champions gave way to new. But if these new kings nod queens at sport look back o'er the athletic trail of 1926 and are mindful of Its ieaeone, they probably will not face 1927 with aswsh aaanrunce that the new year will be any legs) a fi9X than the old one was for a chaav plon in aporta, For, as If r.

EVERYBODY'S prayers should be offered for the confused young people of today who have all the matrimonial inclinations mortals ever had and find themselves discussing promiscuously and in ordinary conversation trial marriage and every phase of sei problems, as unblushingly as we used to discuss the weather. Novel and stage and motion picture and divorce suit and so-called medical books have left nothing forbidden, no zone of shame to be aToid- «d, when youth in their teens talk couple by couple or in groups. Our yomen working out and dining out, family arrangements have made the ^id time fireside a myth to most city and town Americans. The family eype that gave us the strong men and women of other days is leas and -**ss here to function, and in its stead is coming a regime as far from Puritanic as democracy is from despotism. Redeclaring church laws ami clever decisions that get around cburcJl';[ Uws influence the situation about as much as New York state statutes afi|4 f*jct Reno or Paris. Our only hope is healthful public opinion. It is t h | ; *.ig task of churches and all who have a heart to help in the most vital crisis the Anglo-Saxon Christian household has thus far faced. There is no need of despair. The revolution in family life can be met by the personal religious contacts of preachers and teachers and wholeiome books and a re-establishment of the household father as a kind of priest and the mother as a kind of priestess. Despite Use of Slang, Modern Youth Has Able Command of Language By W. WILBUR HATFIELD, Chicago Educator. Despite the accusations of their elders that children use too mtieh alang, the average youth of eighteen today uses much better language than did the youth of fifteen or even five years ago. ! The courses in formal rhetoric once so popular m the better schools, have been displaced by training in composition, oral as well as written. Bej «»use of changed aims and methods of training the average youth of eighteen today uses much better language than did the youth of eighteen, ^fteen or even five years ago. The next step forward is to be the replacement of the present artificial, would-be literary themes, more than half of which are narrativea of insignificant personal experiences, with practice in genuine communicai tion in such situations as occur outside the school. Already progressive teachers in many places are experimenting with these innovations and finding that they are quite practicable. The school graduates ten years hence may be confidently expected to show both mora language power and more ability to adapt themselves to the social situations of business and ordinary intercourse. Religion the Sole Foundation of Moral Standards and Conventions By BISHOP WILLIAM T. MANNING, Episcopal, New York. Stronger moral convictions and standards to enhance the are necessary in upholding the nation's laws and institatiosBs. We see so many people today who are moraliy a d r i f t ^ clear standards or convictions. They tell u§ thai |^l«ttdBafi aW nothing but conventions; that there is DO nwrtiJaflr wfcfch we are bound to obey. That view of life means ruin fpj^he intfvidnal and for society. It means that they have lost their hold on religion and on God. It is religion alone that gives us more standards and conventions, and it is the only foundation of character, personal responsibility and citizenship and human life It is faith which makes human life great, and that makes it worth while. Doubt and uncertainty give no power to our lives. It is the man who believes great things who accomplishes great things. Faith lives in every human heart and the Christian religion lifts the faith that is in as up to its highest and noblest expression. All history shows that religion, and morals stand together or fall together. Increased Duration of Life Great Factor Progress Made by World in By PROF. T. WINGATE TODD, Western Reserve University. Longevity should be regarded as a social benefit as well as increased opportunity for living. The tremendous impetus of discovery and invention during the past century has undoubtedly been due in a large mtaa-v ure to the increased duration of life achieved by medical science. Consider the magnificent work of Edison, Burbank, and Maxim during the ripe years of life denied to earlier generations. Once the old men of society, those of priceless wisdom and experience, died in the prime of their maturity. Today we have aged fathers and uncles from whom we absorb knowledge acquired through the slow years. And the quickening conscience of the world in regard to human relations is undoubtedly influenced by the fact that we have so many old mothers still alive, blooming like evening primroses in the evening of life. The average death age has been increased to fifty-six yean, with an attendant advance in the old age "peak'' from forty-two to seventy-two years. Fundamental Essentials of Home life More Than Food, Clothing and Shelter By ALICE M. LOOMIS, Illinois Education Specialist. No greater mistake can be made than the belief that food, clothing and shelter are the fundamental essentials of home life. They are essentials, but is that all there is to living, to civilisation or to racial development? Is that all theft is to enjoying life? What we are striving for is to make the home a place for the meintai, physical, moral and spiritual development of its members, and alts) a pUoa from frhich each can prepare himself to do his fall paft to tnev e e x i larger unit of society. This expanding of social interest bat no limit, withil the needs of the race, bat it hat a very natural ttartaag poiart i n the home. The conviction grows that true home education In the n l w i l s j j | family circle it t ntver-ei toward the advancing goal planning. M • V !

To further the Idea, poultry specialists of the college of agriculture, University of Illinois mapped out a workable system of poultry sanitation and already many chicken r a i s e r s of the s t a t e are profiting a s a result of It, T h e r e ' s the case of B, A. Barker, a Grundy county farmer, for instance, who took up the poultry sanitation idea and thereby put a stop to the heavy losses which he had been taking *Ls a result of t a p e w o r m s and other poultry parasites and diseases. Ln connection with the sanltution system, B a r k e r yarded his old hens for the first time this past year a n d a s a result t h e egg production of the flock w a s more uniform t h r o u g h o u t the summer t h a n it had been in previous years, due to t h e fact t h a t the hens were uniformly fed. Under this plan they a l w a y s hud access to mash but were not allowed to overeat on grain. B a r k e r h a s co-operated with t h e agritultural college In Its poultry nock record project for three years. In putting t h e poultry sanitation plan Into practice on his farm, B a r k e r had his flock tested for tuberculosis.

On Wednesday congress was officially Informed of the death of Senator William B. McKlnley of TIllnoK and both houses ad.loumed In respect to his memory. Vice President Dnwes and Speaker Longworth appointed committees to attend the funeral in Champaign, President Coolidge In his message made numerous recommendations for legislation, although It Is admitted that there will be time to do little s "•"' more than pass the necessary appropriation bills. The President asked the house ways and means committee to introduce a hill granting a reduction of Income taxes due In March and June, 1927, stating that the surplus of government revenue for the currpnt fiscal year which could be so applied was abont $383,000,000. He said he did not think any change In the special taxes or any permanent reduction was practical at this time. The Democratic leaders have indicated that they will demand a permanent reduction. In the matter of farm relief legislation Mr. Coolrdge reasserted his opposition to anything in the nature of price fixing hy the government, hut anggested that something might be done to solve the surplus problem by supplementing the operations of the co-operative marketing organizations. As for the cotton growers, he said they must reduce their acreage for the coming year hy about one-third. Com belt leaders in congress answered this clause of the message with the announcement that the McNary-Haugen ll^-would be reintroduced at once. '. Coolidge recommended that the Ipplnes be transferred from mlll- ^.. vary to civil rule as goon as possible, It said the islands should not be en complete Independence until the Ives are "politically fitted for selfgovernment and economically Independent." He added the assurance that the Cnlted States would always bear some responsibility for the defense of the islands. Concerning prohibition the message called for reform of abuses In enforcement and said congress should speed ily enact such supplementary legislation as the Treasury department might ask to strengthen the Volstead act. The first of the treasury measures was introduced In the house Wednesday and it Included the appropriation of $T)00.000 for "advances to be made by special disbursing agents.** which means the purchasing of evidence. Several members of the committee refneed to vote for this, and others said they would fight it on the floor of the feeaea.

The decUftt ta the parsonnel of the a m y already had been called to public attention by army officials. The budget provides for $571.- 000,000 for national defense, and the President said this was "a very considerable amount to spend for protection In time of peace." Mr. Coolidge called attention to the fact that no provision is made In the estimates of the Navy department for commencing construction of the remaining three of the eight light cruisers which the act of December 18, 1024, authorizes to be undertaken prior to July 1, 1927, He expressed his approval of this omission. Against this "Interference" the house naval affairs committee promptly revolted. Secretary of the Navy Wilbur and his chief aids were called before the committee and told It that of the eight cruisers mentioned, which were scheduled for completion In 1927. only two have been started and they cannot he completed before 1029. Chairman Butler then declared that so far as he and most of the majority members of the committee were concerned, no more navy proposals will he approved until assurances are received that, once authorized, the programs will be pushed to completion in accordance with the legislation. Under a spedal order the house passed the senate bill providing for increases in the salaries of federal Judges In the Supreme, Circuit, District and other courts.

Marcla gave an irritated flip to the pages of her magazine, and set her pretty back more firmly in her chair in the ctr. The exceedingly fine looking man opposite was buried in his newspaper. If Marcia could have seen the corners of his mouth, she might have been even more upset. That pleasant mouth with the humorous twist. That mouth which opened wide with shouts of ringing laughter. That mouth she had so adored . . . a few months ago. That mouth now twitching with ill-concealed pleasure behind the curtain of the paper. Well, accidents will happen! If two persons who have quarreled choose the same train on the day before Christmas to go home, what can be done about it? Nothing! Murcia read the first page of a story fourteen times, and could not have told on a brf, a single sentence that passed before her eyes. She gave up R EVERTING to the agriculturists. the American Farm Bureau Federation was In session In Chicago and apparently got the Middle West and the South together on a proposed program of farm relief. They adopted the Ideas of Frank O. Lowden and outlined o surplus control measure whirh they will ask congress to pass. Briefly, It will do these things : Provide a federal farm board, administering an adequate revolving fund, with whose help surpluses can actually be handled by co-operative agencies created hy the farmers. Distribute the costs of managing surpluses Just as broadly as the resultant benefits are distributed, that is. over each .marketed unit of a particular commodity through the equalization fee. The federation adopted a long list of resolutions on matters vital to agriculture, and elected these new directors: Central section, Hugh Harper, Lancaster, Wis,: eastern section. E. B. Cornwall. Middlebury. Vt.; southern. Frank Demmlck. Shnteston. Ln.; Western section. M. S. Winder. Suit Lake City. Re-elected officers were: W. H. Settle, Indinnapolis; .1. F. Porter, Columbus, Tenn., and C. S. Brown. Mesa, Ariz.

If her heart fluttered in uneven jumps . . , no one was the wiser. Marcia bristled with independence. She would carry this emergency through with a high hand. Besides, Philip got off at a station before hers. The snowy fields whirled by. Even from the train she could see the fluffy bunches of white on the pine trees. There was a holiday feeling of excitement even in tne stuffy car. The porter was gay with a sprig of holly In his buttonhole. In spite of her resentment she could not prevent a thrill of happiness running through her veins. Home again after many months of hard work in New York! Home to the joliy fireplace, the absurd and lovable dog, and best of all, home with the rollicking family of younger brothers and sisters. And, mother! They had planned, Philip and she, to have this Christmas together at her mother's. Philip had always lived in New York. Of course *he had known about the country and small country towns, but not as Marcia had. They had spent many delightful hours talking over the good times they would have sliding down hill, going about singing carols on Christmas eve, stuffing the stockings for the children, tramping through the woods. All the country entertainments which go so perfectly with the holiday season. And Philip had loved It all He had an aont, an elderly creature who lived in the next town. Philip talked of ber and said he had almost promised to spend Christmas day with her, but now he couldn't think of i t He must go home with Marcia, and Aunt Caroline could go hang! Of course, reflected Marcia, that was where he was bound for now. Too annoying that his seat happened to be« near hers. The train ran smoothly on polished rails. A soothing lullaby seemed to click from the wheels. Marcia sub-, sided Into deep revery. 9ir %nb It must have been an hour out of New York when there came the grating pull-back of the brakes. The train jolted and jerked. Marcia sat up in startled suddenness. She found herself looking straight into the dark eyes opposite. She stared at Philip and Philip stared at her. A tearing crash*! The sharp splinter of glass ! Frightened cries ! The car was in an uproar! The porter stood among them. "All right, everybody! All right! Don't you go^to get skeered! We ran down the end of a freight . . . nobody hurt. Stay right where you am !" Marcia and Philip stood obediently just where they were. Philip's arm was around Marcla's waist. Marcia's frightened face was pressed close to Philip's lapel on Lis coat. "Thank God, you're safe!" whispered Philip. His voice shook. Marcia was swept off her feet by a surge of sweet comfort. Philip near in an accident! Philip holding her close, trying to save her from pain and distress. Before she hardly knew what she said, she heard her voice whispering in his ear! "Come home with me, please! I want you t o ! " * Philip thrust her away from him in pretended concern. '^But what about Aunt Caroline? Dear, dear Aunt Caroline!" "Oh, pshaw! Philip Henderson, you know as well as I do, that you never went there before in your life and are just doing it because you haven't any place else to go!" The man grinned. "Well, of course, if you insist, and all that sort of thing, I'll do it to save wear and tear (" on the disposition." After several hours of work by the wrecking crew, Marcia and Philip were again on their way towards her home. One of the boys met them at the station with an old-fashioned sleigh. A moon spilled silver on the hills. Mother met them at the door. Candles shone from the windows. A howling mob of youngsters hurled themselves on Marcia the minute she stepped on the threshold. It was all as merry and perfect a scene as you could find ln a long journey. But there was a moment of secret understanding between the mother of Marcia, and Philip. They stood together in the hall under the mistletoe. Marcia had been carried into the living*'*''> om on the tide of her joyous reception. "I got your letter," said Philip "with the seat number and train. Lt was awfully good of you to find out for me. How did you manage?" "Oh, the way we mothers the world over manage things, when we want our daughters to be happy. It was such a silly quarrel between you two. I did not plan the wreck, however. That literally threw you together very successfully." They laughed together. Then Marcia's mother called to her. "Come here a minute, daughter. I want you to see the decorations in the hall." Marcla's mother was a woman of imagination. She left the lately arrived travelers in the hall under a friendly bit of mistletoe. And what that scrap of Christmas green saw and heard Is nobody's business! (©. 1D2S. Western N'ewspaper Union.) ALICE B. gALMER y 3T WTAS just a few days before the great holiday and a delightful snow storm was in progress. The wind as it whistled past whispered of the grand and glorious "Christmas'Spirit." The most prosperous Christmas in many a year had struck Cedar Junction. Happy, snow-bedecked crowds swarmed the downtown district, ablaze with glimmering lights and decorative displays. Perhaps old Silas, who lived on the rural route just outside of town, was the only human being to whom Christmas meant nothing. He had become separated from everyone who had ever been dear to him, and as the years slipped by he had grown strangely morose and indifferent. Children w e r e afraid of him and grown-ups stayed clear of him. Now, It seems *l«*Tyfcet<Tt Christmas t i m e they all did their bit toward making e v e r y o n e happy. But SI had always been for« gotten. No one ever think of making B* (got His £harr seemed to him happy. This year a new member had entered the Men's Card club, one Joseph Bartlett, an extremely fine fellow all round, who was always suggesting something new and original. At their final meeting before Christmas, when all had been satisfactorily arranged, 'twas Joseph who smilingly arose, filled to the brim with the Christmas spirit and made the following motion: "Say, boys! How about making 'Od Si' on the rural route, happy this Christmas?" At first there was a dead sldence, Every one was too shocked to speak. But when the idea finally dawned upon them, all seconded the motion. In the midst of the other celebrations, the "Happy Twelve" of the card club were busy making preparations for the call on Si. They trimmed a small table tree delightfully, with "Siias" Inscribed on a huge star at its peak. Then they prepared a cherry punch, purchased a super-box of excellent cigars and sallied forth headed by Joseph, the brave, who was thoughtful enough to slip a deck of cards into his coat pocket besides. T w a s about 9 p. m. and Si had retired as usual, at an early hour, when there came a loud knock upon his door. Jumping out of bed with a thump, he roared: "Who's there?" "Merry Christmas," shouted the club. • "Well," what of it?" cried Silas. '"SVe have come to celebrate wtfk you. Let us in." "What do yon mean, you band i f scalawags? Get out of here befeft I call the police." T ' The others were ready to fle* ftp their lives, but Joseph was not to put off so easily. Then came the surprise. "SI, don't you remember brother, Joseph, whom you thought to be dead? it Is I ! For God's sake open the door!" With a crash, the door was swnfia open and the brothers wex° in each other's arms as tears streamed down the cheeks of Old 81, bnt they were Christmas tears of joy. Then followed suchc a celebration as Cedar Junction had never beheld. Al! who passed the little house wondered why the lights at Old Si's place were burning all night But the biggest shock of all was when they actually saw a sparkling Christmas tree in the window. / «& 101«.

"Yes," said Mrs. Black Cat, "you are really very lucky. I am fortunate, too, though sometimes 1 do enjoy a mouse. However, It is not because I am not fed all I want. It is because I love the hunt and the chase." "Well, now you speak of it," said Mrs. Cat, "I think I will go mouse hunting myself before long.

Mrs. Black Cat wasn't in the least Insulted because Mrs. Cat suggested that they should keep quiet and rewL She, too, felt like a nap. So the two cats closed their eye* and they had a delicious cat nap and after a while as the sun was going down Mrs. Black Cat got up and stretched herself and said: "Well, Mrs. Cat, I must be going home.

I R V I N Q KlNQ THE TURNED STONE i n - v GO OUT in the spring and turn up a brick or a stone on the ground s*d look under It at the earth. The >r of the earth exposed will be the »r of the hair of your future husband. This Is a "project" for girls and is apparently a more common superstitions In the southern states than in the northern, though It may be met with in widely separated localities. It Is an especial favorite with the Maryland maidens, according to the Journal of the American Folk- Lore Society. This superstition is apparently akin to that of the lover's hair found In the shoe of the Inquiring maiden when she hears the first call of the bird which Is the harbinger of spring. It Is from the Northern races, evidently, that we inherit the superstition of the turned stone; for It and similar folk-lore ideas are found mostly, if not entirely, In the northern part of Europe. The Norse mythology was an overshadowing one for that part of the world and in the' British isles and In northern Germany its effect has regained solidly Impressed upon Brlt- . | J | and Teutonic folk-lore. The su- *jjirstltion In question seems to be a ppfvlval of the Idea contained tn the story of Balder the Beautiful—that shining Norse god supposed by some authorities to have represented the Bpffit of vegetation which passes part .Offtie year In the realm of the underw* if|fl and In spring reanimates the 3he Hotel 5 j^Rpe Fulkerjors. - Glider himself will not come back t a S a f t e r Ragnarock, the "Twilight of f t e Gods," but if the speculations of Tames Fraser are correct, it would appear as If his death Insured the annual return of vegetation. According to one version Balder was the son of Odin and the goddess Freya. The latter was the goddess of love: Long centuries before Tennyson wrote of "a young man's fancy** love and the sprtoftinie were conceived as being "affinities," The association of ideas la d e a r .

( i t i r H A T are you giving up this V V year?" asked the House Detective. "Oh, a lot of things," answered the Hotel Stenographer. "The first thing I gave up was dancing. I shall not dance till next year. My stable of dancing partners has run down anyway. I had four men who were taking me out; two of them were regu- LJars and two of them were once-In-afswhlles but I am at the point where there is no thrill dancing with any of them. "Going to dances scares me cold about matrimony. The first time a sheik takes me to a dance and we skid across the polished floor and I feel his strong protecting arm around roe and experience his firm gliding amidst the maze, I think of nothing but that firm ami around me for all time, guiding nnd protecting me against the snares and pitfalls of a wicked world. "It Is like that for the first two or three times. Thf-n I realize that ho Rays 'Tim-tum' when the music stops and that annoys me and I notice that now and then instead of backing roe, he backs himself and bumps into people on the floor, and then he is not as careful as he could be rounding the turns and when he tries to kiss me good night he bores me instead of thrills me and I begin to wish some other fellow would take me to the next dance. Next thing I duck dates with him in hopes that some new aspirant to my heart and hand will ask me out! "AR changeable as that about dancing p- fners, Kelly, how will It be if I say .hose fatal words that tie me to just one for all time? Will I get tired of looking at him at breakfast and will I find out after I marry him that he takes meat, potatoes and bread on his fork at one time and stuffs the balanced ration In his mouth all at once?

"A T ABOUT this time I entered an art school for the first time, in San Francisco. "Previous to that I ran away from St. Mary's, a boy's school near Topeka, Kans., where I remained for two years, drawing more than I studied, and where the teacher made me do pictures and statues of the saints and the pope to be used in the chapel. "They had me do too much of that, and I got tired and ran away, returning to my parents in Omaha. On th» way I bought the first real paints I ever owned. "In Omaha I attended the public schools, but went on drawing In my books and etching on my slate. I never had received any Instruction In the technique of art except from sn occasional, itinerant teacher, who was no good. "Then ray father took us to Los Angeles, where the color In the hills, the vividness in the sunrises, had always so Inspired me, and there I gave myself over to painting. Most of my pictures were of horses, Indians and frontier life. Some of them ware sold locally, and In that way I earned enough money to go to San Francisco and to the art school, where I remained two years, meeting with fal/ success. "After going back to Los Angeles for a year I decided to go East. 1 had just enough money to get me ai far as Omaha, but I took along my entire collection of paintings and bronzes and sold them to a private collector in that city. He gave me $2,000 for the lot, and with that money I went to Paris. There I studied at the Academie Jullen and Ecole des Beaux Arts.—Gutzon Borglum." TODAY—Rorglum is the faraoui sculptor who was engaged In tho herculean task of transforming Stone mountain. Georgia, into a memorial for the Confederate heroes, by carving in relief, on its smooth granite surface, figures of General Lee and other leaders. Borglum's method of accomplishing this extraordinary work was highly ingenious. A lantern was to throw images from slides on the surface of the hill at night, the exact-sized Images of the figures to be sculptured; these images were then to be outlined by painters. In the morning workmen were to go over these outlines with pneumatic stone drills and so the figures were to be carved. Borglum Is the creator of many famous art works, including the celebrated figure of the seated Lincoln, In Newark. N. J. (© by McClur* Newrp&p«r Syndicate.) o (ft br McCIora Newspaper Sjndleata.)

Miss Cray?" inquired Doris Dinsiuere, beating herself in her frieud's comfortable chair. "ll't> because you're bo sensible." "That's a mixed sort of compliment,'' answered Elizabeth Gray, laughing. "1 think 1 know what you mean, though." "I mean you're the sort of person to come to for advice," said Doris, patling her friend's hand coaxlngly. Elizabeth Gray and Doris Dinsmere had been school friends. Five years afterward they had met in New York, where Doris was studying art. :tt the expense of her well-to-do parents, while Elizabeth lived in a tiny fiat and worked as a stenographer. Miss Gray was the sort of a woman who would never be quite beautiful, as Doris was, but there was more in her head than had passed through Doris' Highly one in all her life. "You are in love again," said Miss Gray calmly. Doris nodded. "To Charlie Ross," she answered. "We're engaged." Elizabeth was unable to repress a little sense of pain. It was she who had introduced Charlie to Doris. Charlie had been quickly Infatuated with the empty-headed little girl, who represented all that was sacred In his eyes. She thought with a pang how much he had begun to mean to her before he met Doris and ceased coming to her apartment. They had discussed things together; he had told her everything that was in his life, all his Ideals. And he had been thrown off his balance by Doris, who had nothing but beauty and vivacity. She knew Doris would never make a good wife for Charlie. And the pity was that she could do nothing. Time must teach them. "This Is what I want you to do," said Doris. "He writes me the most beautiful love letters. And I—I don't know how to answer them." "Just be natural, dear," said the older woman. "Don't try to say what you don't mean. Charlie will come to understand." "But yon don't understand," said Doris plaintively. "He thinks I am all sorts of things I am not. He thinks I am clever and—and all that. Elizabeth"— she used the word when she wanted to coax—"won't you write me a love letter to Charlie?" -My dear child!" faltered Miss Gray. "Oh, yon must," pleaded Doris. "Or else I shall lose him. You don't know how much he means to me, and all he thinks me which I am not. Please, please. Elizabeth." "But he will knew It Is not ynu speaking In the letter, my dear," protested Elizabeth Gray. "Please," repeated Doris, sobbing. Doris was very winning when she meant to he. And so her friend capitulated nnd, conscience-stricken, sat down to indite a letter to Charlie Ross that should Round like Doris and yet be what DorlB was not. She wrote It from her own heart. She spoke of what love means to a woman, of all the things that she knew and Doris could never know. She poured out her heart In that letter, and in many others, For the first letter brought hack a reply that touched her vividly. It showed something In the man's nature, something Idealistic which even Elisabeth Gray had never known existed In the man, something to which her heart responded as the steel to the magnet. And after that the descent was easy. Letter after letter came to him from her pen. "You must not wonder." she wrote onre. "that I seem so different to you when we meet from what T seem to be In my letters. It Is very difficult for me to express myself face to face." "Charlie is devoted," said Doris happily one day. "He thinks 1 write all those letters, and you know. Elizabeth, that they are Incomprehensible to me." Yes, there were many thlnsrs that were incomprehensible to Doris. Elizabeth Gray begnn to see that more and more clearly as the weeks went by. Rut she WRS too far In the slough of deception now to be able to extricate herself. Passionate letters passed between them, and she poured out all her longing and all her love to this tover who, unknowing whence the letters came, could never be hers. "He 1« so serious." pouted Doris one day. "And he talks of such heavy things! They make my head'ache. And T have to pretend to understand —because of this silly plot. Why did you ever let me into It, Elizabeth?" This was Elizabeth's thanks. She smiled; she could afford to smile, for she knew from Charlie's letters that she held his heart absolutely, although he never dreamed of It. Bat that night she prayed for his sake that he might not marry Doris. The prayer seemed to be strangely answered. For the next week Doris came to her, after a longer interval than usual. She sat down at her feet and began patting her hand. "What la I t D o r i s r asked Elizabeth. 1 don't lore Charlie," Doris burst out. "It was ail a mistake. I nave found the man I love, and he Loves me. So you will not have any more of those horrid letters to write. He Isn't the sort of man who is above me. He is Krank BewletL" The actor'.'" "Yea," answered Doris meekly. "What will Charlie say?" "I want you to w m e and teii him," answered Doris. "1'romise uie. You know, ynu got me into tins trouble, Elizabeth, and you wusi get me out— you must 1" Elizabeth sal down trial night with a hea\y heart and wrote 10 Charlie. Doris was going home; she loved another; he must forget her and never write to her nor try 10 see her again. She did not sleep that night, and went lo work with a heavy heart next day. That evening Charlie called, and she was totally unprepared for It- He came in with a while face. "I haven't been to see you since I met Doris," he said. "1 can't forgive myself for neglecting an old friend In my happiness. n>i I supposed It to be. Do you know -know--?" Elizabeth nodded. She could not manage to utter the trivial sympathy in her heart. "Why did she do it?" he demanded. "We love each other. If ynu could hfive seen the letters she wrote rne! They were not the letters of a foolUh girl. There is something I can't an derstand in this. The man she thinks she loves now is —well, not the sort ot man that girl would love." He forgot himself in his despair. He paced the room. Suddenly he stopped before Elizabeth's desk, Elizabeth sprang Up. He was looking at a halffinished tetter she had been writing when he came in. He turned and faced her. "What does this mean?" he asked, looking at the handwriting. "Doris has be«n here this evening. See. the Ink Is scarcely dry ! She has been here, and she Is here now." "No, Charlie." said Elizabeth helplessly. "You don't understand. Our writing Is very much alike." "I have never seen her writing," lie answered, with slow suspicion. "But I know that the writing of that letter is hers." "It isn't. Charlie. I—" "Then you wrote those letters at her dictation !_ She showed you my letters and dictated her answers to you. So they filtered through two persons—all those floe professions of love and eternal loyalty T he said bitterly, Elizabeth did not know who*. J f ^ L say. And she solved Her p r o M t s * m y a woman's privileged way by afttfcfcng down Into her chair and bursting Into bitter tears. She looked up at him. "Go, new, please!" she sobbed. " Y e * V n l n k anything you please, I wrote 'them for Doris, it you like. What does It matter, now that your trust has been betrayed by a heartless girl?" He stood irresolutely In the doorway: then he came forward to where she sat, her head bowed on her arms, striving to still the sobs that rent her as she thought of the bitterness that had overtaken their two lives, "It means a good deal," he said "Did you—did you help her to compose those letters? And were some of those thoughts yours? Believe me, I see her In her true light now, and it seems to me Incredible that she could ever have written to me as she did. The woman who wrote those letters was a woman of a soul far above Doris'—" "Hush ! Do not think unkindly of her," said Elizabeth softly, raising her streaming face. "It Is all over now. She would never have understood what love means." "Yon Inspired them." he persisted, doggedly. "I wrote them a!!. Charlie," said Elizabeth, rising and facing him. "She was afraid you would look down on her. She loved you In her way— remember that. She Is only a child. She asked me to help her keep your love, and I wrote them." He held her hands. "T thnnk God," he answered gravely, "that at least I can keep my faith In women." And he was gone. But Elizabeth Oray's heart was singing. For she knew that he would come hank, nnd that her love for him would find Its reward—some day. Know Your Sweetheart by His Handwriting By EDNA PURDY WALSH EdiU*r, (JtuuTMrtejr Heading XjwntslJac i C u p y r t y t u . j Is He a Materialist? £^•3 Heavy and thick writing with lettert low above the line indicates one who lives mostly on the physical p'ana- He may be emphatic, firm, and successful in a material way, but if tin writing is ragged and disorderly, with a pronounced slant to the right, thert will be sensuality. The very idealistic, spiritual and visionary person writes with a thin. light line, with letters high above the line. Such ^may be too impractical however for their success on this plane. We should look for balance between physical and spiritual quail ties. The heavy, thick writer may reveal many intuitive and Inspirational qualities elsewhere in his writing sur*h as long generous terminals ta his word endings, etc., while the tola, light line writer may show strength and emphasis in firmly crossed t, bars, heavier down strokes, and many other signs of will-power, to be learned later. The healthy balance between things we term spiritual and what we call material Is necessary for a well rounded character. A great spiritual teacher says, "If we cannot prove a spiritual law on earth we cannot prove it anywhere." The dreamer who does not apply his life to the earth Is Just as much amiss as the pure materialist who ignores his spiritual self. la H e I d e a l i s t i c ? When the letters like d and t reach high toward the line above and the t bars slant upward as well as the writing, then we will find a writer w h o Is ldi * l # t « i > A n * capitals will be simply formed. ^0 There will be a s u g g e s t i o n about the page of a desire on the part of the w r i t e r to express In his writing as he would ID his life, the best and most unusual way.

McKim has called forth a host Of sympathy from all who knew him. There are times in our lives when language seems imperfect to express the feelings of our hearts . The four years of Dr. Mc&ms^ service in this community have brought to all of us an evidence of his skill as a physician and his worth as a man. He possessed a great power in the diagnosis of disease. Willi this skill which seemed to him a sixth sense, he seemed to understand cases which might baffle others. He was a persistent student, and might often be found delving into his books and magazines. He said one day to the writer :Medicine is not a finished science. It behoves everyone who has anything to do with medicine to add to the science and to help finish it With this spirit he wrought his task He lived and wrought expecting that new light was about to break from the the truth he loved. The service he rendered to the sick in our community can not be told. He was diligent in his work. He was a lover and servant of his fellow men. There was a charm about Dr. Mel and his personality that cannot easily told. There is something a! the medical profession that m somes of its followers pewit but Dr. McKim was always a optimist He always «Su an int. of an atmosphere of1 p e a s a n t whenever he entered the i & k He gained.the convene* «f looked to him f o r s o l p . .

Mr. Birkett came over from England in the early forties and started to work for a man named Sloan who operated a flour mill at Dover as the district around the Birkett farm was then called. and at that time consisted of a store postoffice blacksmith shop, cooper shop etc. Sloan died and Mr. Birkett married his widow and continued in the milling business. During the civii war wheat skyrocketed in price and he became very wealthy* by the sal<; of milling products nad often could have made much more money iif he had been able to purchase more wheat. Some years after this the mill burned to the ground and was neve* rebuilt as he had decided to engage in other business.

Only a holiday was eg along—on the very next Monti Larry knew the holiday was at all. He rather wanted to holidays were all pertly his. they were to be shared by lots and lots of others, but he, too, wanted his own particular little share. There was Lincoln's birthday and there was Washington's birthday— and the Fourth of July and Thanksgiving day, and all of these Larry felt a ahare Is. for was he Dot an American boy? And does not every American boy feel a share in these holidays? Christmas day—of course he felt a part of Christmas day and a big share In the day Itself—just as all boys and girls feel that they belong to that most wonderful of ail days. But the coming holiday—itSras not Larry's. Nor had it scything to do with Larry. The thought of that bothered him. He wished somehow it could be different. He had asked his father what Labor day meant and his father had told him that it was a holiday set apart as a day of recognition to the laboring class. He had not quite understood what that meant but his father had explained that it meant a day set aside in honor of there being such a class as a laboring class, showing that to belong to the laboring class was something dignified and to be respected, Larry knew then that it was useless for him to have a share in this holiday— a real, real share in it at least. But then a happy thought came to him. For the nex,t few days Larry was very, very busy. Every one thought he was busily playing and making mud pies and such, but not at all. And on the morning of Labor day they knew what Larry had been doing. He led his father and his mother and his grownup sister and his fourteen-year-old brother to the very far corner of the garden which had always been set aside as Larry's mudpie playground. There he showed them a tiny garden set out with paths and borders of pretty pebbles. Growing in the garden were ferns which Larry had transplanted from the woods and a tiny red geranium stood proudly In a little bed by itself. It had come from Larry's nursery flower pot. "Ton see," he said, "I wanted to have a holiday today—I eaean I wanted to have a right to the holiday as daddy talked about laborers having, so I've labored, toe." It was rather • hard word to say but he managed it welL "And now,** he turned to his family, "don't you think I can have a little share in Labor day, too—a real little sharer And his family said, 'Tea," and 1 think you'll agree with them, too!

It guana, of course, when the clothes are worn by the living. The superstition U entirely one of sympathetic magic— the first principles in philosophy of OV primitive ancestors. A man's dothlng was supposed to become lmwith his personality in a leaser only than his hair and bis •alia and his shadow partook of that Jadivldnallty. The clothes absorbed a Jpaxtof the man's "ego" and thus between them and the man became established such a sympathetic relation Jfeajt what was done to the clothes re- A0ttd on the man and what happeaed Hi the man necessarily reacted on his dothes. It will easily be seen then wfey "Tbe dothes of the dead never - wear long." The .superstition la sympathetic Its simplest form, without any and bears every evidence of antiquity. This belief in a close itjonshlp between a man. and Jfeefothes is found today among the i S e e Ifcring in a primitive state in narts of the world.

It does not signify your subjection, whether your husband wears one or not And according to Its original significance, you might prefer that It remain a onesided tradition. The nee of the rings was introduced by the Egyptians. It implied the endpwment upon the bride of all the husband's possessions, and gave to the Egyptian woman the right to issue commands with,the same authority as her spouse.

While many women are limited as to the UneB and styles ttiey can wear, every type can be attractively and becomingly dressed if the effect of style upon the figure is studied. The figure with the large bust may be made to appear more graceful by clothing selected to conceal Its defect* ] and to center attention on portions of the figure pleasing In effect. The dolman line, with its loose, easy fit, conceals rather than reveals the large busi, provided, of course, the draping falls In pleasing lines. Although the dolman emphasizes and frequently Increases the size of the upper portion of the figure, the loose, easy sleeves and armholes tend to equalize and distribute the apparent bulk, thus making the bust less conspicuous. Double-breasted coats, with overlapping thickness of cloth, are not suitable to the large-busted figure. The shawl collar may be becoming while worn open with a deep V down the front and the collar Itself concealing the lines of the bust, but it is disastrous when worn closed, with the bulky fur turned inward, increasing the size of the bust The straight collar, worn rather high around the neck, tends to equalize the figure by giving less contrast between bust and shoulder and neckline. The scarf collar fulfilling this function and at the same time giving a straight line down the front of the coat and partly concealing the outlines of the bust, may likewise be a wise selection for uhe woacn with a large bust. Sometimes tne bust may be made to appear smaller and* the balance of the entire figure Improved If the hips are made to appear larger. Belted effects have this advantage and fulfill another function as well—they hold the coat bloused slightly, so that strain over the bust line Is relieved. Trimming, particularly fur trimming, placed at the bottom of the coat or as pockets, makes the skirt portion of the coat appear heavier and thus equalizes the figure. The bust then appears smaller. The danger of this method Is that It shortens the figure and therefore cas be worn successfully only by the taller figure. The coat fitting trimly with a normal arm's-eye and narrow shoulder line may, with a cleverly handled flare, give the impression that the entire figure is as slim as the emphasized upper portion. If the flare Is oot gracefully conceived. If, for Instance, it flares from the shoulder without revealing the atlm portion of the figure above the wSist, it may have the unpleasing effect of appearing like an Inverted triangle, wide and heavy at the bottom. The straight-line coat frequently Is the best choice of the woman with large hips. Fitting neither loosely nor snugly, it tends to equalize the figure, at the same time giving slender lines. It Is not as pleasing for the largebusted figure, as the weight of the cost rests on the bast, caasing this portion of the figure to be made conspicuous. The heavy pile fabrics are less slenderizing than smooth surfaces. Shiny materials may emphasize high lights. while s soft-napped fabric of dull and supple texture may create becoming shadows, cresting an Illusion of height. Cloth coats, particularly those made of the soft, fine fabrics sponsored this season, axe lighter In weight than the fur coat, an Important consideration for the average woman, particularly one who does much walking. M$M K w<'mmwm FEEDING LAYING HEN IS REAL ART Plush coats, not the ordinary sort, but gorgeous types, are one of the smartest items in" winter cloaking.

Rote Beige Lace Draped on Side of This Chapeau Fringe, Trimming Note for Day, Evening Wear Fringe continues to hold. u leading place in trimmings, both for day and evening wear. The tiered effect Is 4 favorite treatment for fringe. An evening dress of pink velvet with three tiers of beaded fringe Is a recent French Jmportatldn. Fringe, made ot flat sequins is decidedly effective especially when applied In tiers. Fringes of metal are new in dressmaking. They blend beautifully with the metal cloths that are so popular. A gold fringe on an evening gown of gold brocade and green velvet Is an exquisite combination. A smart costume in black and white has the black jersey skirt and the tunic bloise banded with deep black and white fringe. By the way, these .varicolored fringes are new, and decidedly effective.

Feeding the laying* hen is a real art, for so much depends upon the poultryman's decision each day in the matter so that his birds will work most efficiently. ' The feeder is a skilled mechanic who systematically holds the bird* op to 80 to 00 per cent production from November 1 tp the following fail, without causing a slump in egg production and at the same time maintaining their health and vigor. One of the first prerequisites in feeding is to understand what the egg consists ot It is made up of a yolk, white, shell, and u two-thirds water. The yolk is fat and is made from feeding fatty or starchy foods, as corn, wheat and oats. The white is .animal protein, which is made from material such as meat and milk. ' The, shell la made mostly of calcium, which is found In certain kinds of stone snd oyster shelL In order to aid In the digestion of all of these foods some bulk Is desirable which ia green and succulent, such as sprouted oats, mangel beets, cabbage, etc. In order for these foods to be properly digested, an abundance of grit ahould be available, as this acts as the hen's teeth in grinding the food in the gizzard. Water is cheap. Have it before the birds at all times. :'.*: .* ;«« « Legume Hay Helps Solve the Green Feed Problem Legume hay helps solve the winter 'green feed problem for the chickens. Experiments In Ohio, Kansas, Texas, and California seem to indicate definitely that where no other source of green feed is available the addition of a legume hay will increase the number of eggs produced and their hatchabillty. It will also reduce the mortality from nutritional troubles, points out O. S. Vickers, extension specialist in poultry at the Ohio State university. Save the hay with the roost leaves and the greenest color for the chickens. An easy way to feed chickens hay is to provide a rack along the wall and keep hay before them all the time. A trough along the bottom of the rack will catch all the leaves that would otherwise be wasted. These can be fed from the mash hopper. Alfalfa meal may be used If good hay cannot be bought at reasonable prices. The meal should be used In the mash. About 10 per cent alfalfa meal will substitute for a like amount of bran. A combination of mangel beets and legume bay makes a good winter combination to use instead of sprouted oats. It may be that hay Is about to take the place of our old reliable, but troublesome, sprouted oats as a winter green feed. :.*•-% 0(X»00O00000O00O0OO0OOOO00 Poultry Hints The laying hen never loafs, e e e Soy beans can be used In a poultry ration If minerals are added. • e • Poultry raising brings quick returns and involves a' small capital Investment in land, buildings and equipment. e • • The factors of scientific poultry housing are to keep the pens, yards and houses clean, dry and sanitary, e • e Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons offer pood markets for capons.

The dry law will be repealed at the next session of the legislature In February, for out of a membership of 112, about 80 of the new legislators are pledged to take this action. It was a great victory for the Conservative government headed by Premier G. Howard Ferguson. Only one cabinet member, Dr. David Jamieson, was defeated. Sinclair and Raney, respectively the Liberal and Progressive dry leaders, won by narrow margins. William Nickle, until recently Premier Ferguson's attorney general, who left the government to support the drys, was beaten in Kingston by a majority of more than 2,000. His downfall was a demoralizing defeat for the drys. Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are the only provinces of Canada that still cling to prohibition. FOREIGNERS In Foochow, China, who are numerous, were In dire peril for some days while the Cantonese and .northern troops were fighting for control of Fukien province. Hdwever, calls for protection were speedily answered and Japanese, British and French gunboats were hurried to the scene. To protect American lives and property the mine detachment vessel Hart was sent from Manila to Foochow. Latest reports of the fighting indicated that the Cantonese were having the best of It and woo Id soon capture Foochow, Chekiang and the entire province. Sir Austen Chamberlain, British foreign secretary, told the house of commons that the government opposed armed Intervention In China and bad taken all the steps It deemed necessary to protect British nationals In the war zone. As opposed to the recent pronunclamento of the Cantonese commander Is the report of the International commission headed by Silas H. Strawn on extraterritoriality in China. After eight months of study the commission recommends that extraterritorial rights be retained by the powers for the present, being progressively abolished only as changing conditions warrant, and that the administration of the laws be entrusted to a judiciary independent of the executive or the military authorities. SECRETARY OF STATE KELLOGG has devised and formally proposed a plan which he believes will settle the age-old dispute between Peru a.nd Chlje over Tacna and Arica. He suggests that those provinces be ceded to Bolivia, now shut off from the sea. and that Peru and Chile receive compensation for public works constructed there. The provinces, under his plan, would be maintained as a perpetually demilitarized zone, the city of Arica w.ould be made a free pott and the Morro promontory would be established under International contra* as a memorial to the valor of both Chile and Peru with a monument on the headland commemorating the friendly settlement of the question. Prompt resumption of diplomatic relations between Chile and Peru would be expected under the formula, which. Secretary Kellogg explained, "does not call for a moral.surrender or any* thing that can be so construed, by one country to the other." Further, he said, its acceptance would embody **a settlement which South America as a whole would welcome as one insuring permanent peace and stability."

Claudel Is an author of considerable note and of delightful personality. Born at Lyons in 1870, he began bis diplomatic career as attache to Washington 30 years ago. Later he was consul to Cfenada. He lived In China nearly twenty years 'as consul. He was transferred to Frankfort In 1012 as consul general, and later served as minister to Brazil, minister to Denmark, and was named ambassador to Japan in 1923. FOREIGN MINISTER BRIAND, successfully defending his policy of reestablishing - friendship between France and Germany, told the chamber of deputies that a peace policy, & the only means of averting another calamitous war. He said the policies of Locarno and Thiory were merely steps toward peace, adding that he and Herr Stresemann differed on many points but were trying to get together. Regarding the Rhlneland, he said: "We are not on the Rhineland to throttle Germany, we are there to see that the treaty stipulations are carried out, and we have every reason to withdraw when we are satisfied. I am convinced the substitution of the League of Nations for the -Interallied control commission instead of weakening France's security would strengthen it." M. Brland also took occasion to warn Italy not to get too gay. He said It was all tight for the Italians tolose their tempers, but that they must not do it too often. HERBERT HOOVER, secretary of ' commerce, says In his annual report that the year has been one of unprecedented progress for American Inv dustrles and never has been surpassed In the volume of production and consumption, in the physical quantity of exports and Imports, and in the rate of wages. There has been practically no unemployment He adds: "As In the preceding year there were a few points where conditions were less satisfactory, as In the New England textile Industry, two or three sections of the agricultural Industry, and the bituminous coa^ Industry. "On the whole, however, the country was able to maintain the highest standard of living in Its history, a standard far above that in most other countries of the world at this or any other time.

Politics in itiiug^and noble definition is the science of good-goveninWi^-In iti low and* tejifiih modern meaning, politics is the battle for spoils and power for p^tonaJ advantage. In the ideal sense; politics concerns our livea, our tfbeities and onr fate. It has the purpose at planning, protecting pre- •orving and prompting the public good and welfare at every angle. In the baser, practical, partisan expression of today, politics largely is the scheme by which a number of materialistic men live at the public crib and thrive like parasites and ticks upon the body politic. Should young men' reaching their majority and soon thereafter risk their characters and their possible careers by touching the-black pitch of politics aa it exists today in our America, or should they shun it for the cleaner fields of science, art and industry ?J0n the other hand, admitting that onr politics, as constituted now, is not what it should be, should young men who presumably have purer sentiments of patriotism and the fresher fire of a finer feeling for the future of the city, state or nation, should they enlist, as they did in the war, to make, in peace times, this land much aafer for 4eniocraj5y? The danger of being defiled by close contact with the average politician of our modern politics is not to be belittled or ignored. The need of the power of young men to cleanse or to mioimize the calculating sordidness of modern politics is just as great as the necessity for gunners on the battleships at sea, for our American municipalities <and voters-axe "at sea" politically. No Great Advance Made by Civilization ii) Three Thousand Years FOR Cr i c l »a^754^ka J s.ScidE:ve<^itfw By PROF. ROBERT A, MILLIKAN, Yale University. The more intimately one gets in touch with any civilizatioo of bygone days the more he is struck by the similarity between the way people lived and talked then and the way they live, talk and think now. The beauty of women, the strength of men, the flavdr of strawberries, the aroma of flowers, the love of friends, courtship, marriage and" divorce, the race track, by wrestling and boxing—all these played' almost exactly the same role in the lives of the people of ancient Borne as they play in the lives of the people of New Haven or New York. And it is around these things, too, that about 90 per cent of the interest*-of the average man resolve/ In what are called the highest things of life, can we truthfully»be said to have made any real progress?

Lasting World Peace Based on Contentment,* Happiness and Prosperity 1 " I l l l l By WILLIAM C. ALEXANDER, Kiwanis Vice president Colossal efforts have been made by many to obtain world peace. World peace can never come without national peace. National peace can never be hoped for without community peace. Peace is dependent upon contentment, happiness and prosperity. Kiwanis has a greater opportunity than any organization I know for contributing to the welfare of community, national and world well-being. Our organization is built on a solid foundation, from the bottom, not from the top. Starting at the bottom, our just duty is to accept in our clubs, members—not only on a basis of their fitness as outstanding business or professional men—but as good citizens, and also of their proven interest in the actual work of Kiwanis and a full appreciation of its worth. When a man'says he hasn't time' for Kiwanis, if yoa annot convince him and he does not agree to attend meetings and to bear his share of the labors, "pass him up." You cannot afford to take him, in.

Agriculture still lags behind other Industries, Secretary Hoover concedes. "The steady advance In prices of agricultural commodities from the time of the great fall In 1920-21 up to the c^op year 1924-25 has contributed to the restoration of* agriculture, although there are still weak spots" says Mr. Hoover. By CHATJNCEY M. DEPBW, Retired Railroad Director. ONE of the most Important attacks yet made on the Volstead act was Of course there will always be newsboys who will be railroad preri* dents, and unscholarly men who will rise to great distinction. Some persons are endowed with exceptional qualities—divine gifts which make them great regardless of training. There is no accounting for the exceptional man, but the percentage of newsboys who become magnates is exceedingly small, and I believe even they would have madabao infinitely repulsed by the Supreme "court" of the , greater success if they had been better equipped. ' , The George Washington^, the Abraham Lincolna, the, Calhouns, the Henry Clays and the DanM W^bsterg have all these exceptional qualities and would have been great anyhow. ,' The qualities essential to success as I woul^place them are: First, character; second, industry, remorseless industry; third, s fuH and thorough knowledge of one's career or vocation; fourth, a due regard for one's fellow men and the cultivation of them. United States in an Opinion that upheld that section1 of the act which limits to one pint In ten days the amount of spirituous or vinous liquor a physician may prescribe for a patient Five of the justices held that this restriction Is clearly valid under the power granted congress In the eighteenth amendment to enforce prohibition by appropriate legislation. Justices Sutherland. McReynolds. Stone and Butler in a dissenting opinion asserted that not only is the restriction an unlawful Interference with the medical profession and the right Of Individual states to control medical practice, but that it Is plain, from a reading of the eighteenth amendment,* that congress and the states whicfc ratified the amendment, sought only T Duty of Church to Aid in Preservation of SpiritUEal ra& Physical jHealth , By DEAN CHARLES R.

" • • • * . The noise in this room was perfectly tumultuous, for there were more children there' than . Scrooge, in bis agitated state of mind, could count; and, unlike the celebrated herd in the poem, they were^ not' forty children conducting themselves like one, but every child was conducting himself like forty. The consequences were uproarious .beyond belief; but no one seemed to care; on the contrary, the mother and daughter laughed heartily, and enjoyed it very much; and the latter, toon beginning to mingle in the sports, got pillaged by the young brigands most ruthlessly. What would I not have* given to be one of them! Though i never could have been so rude, no, no!

The Immense relief of finding this a false alarm! The Joy, and gratitude, and ecstasy! They are all indescribable alike. It is enough that, by rlegrees, the children and their emotions got out of the parlor, and, by one stair at a time, up to the top of the house, where they went to bed, and so subsided.—Christmas Carol, Stave 2. • • • Oh, a wonderful pudding. Bob Cratchlt said, and calmly, too, that he regarded it as the greatest success achieved by Mrs. Cratch it since their marriage. Mrs. Cratchlt said that now the weight was off her mind, sue would confess she had her doubts about the quantity of flour. Everybody had something to say about It, but nobody said or thought it was at all a small pudding for a large family. It would have been flat heresy to do so. Any Cratchlt would have blushed to hint at such a thing. > At last the dinner was allj done, the cloth was cleared, the hearth swept, and the fire made up. The compound in the jug being tasted, and considered perfect, apples and oranges were put upon the table, and a shovel full of chestnuts on the fire. Then all the Cratchlt family drew round the hearth, in 'what Bob Cratchit called a circle, meaning half a one; and at Bob Cratchlt's elbow stood the family display of glass, two tumblers and a custard-cup without a handle. These held the hot stuff from the Jug, howe v e r a s well as golden goblets 'would have done; and Bob served It out with beaming looks, while the chestnuts on the fire sputtered and cracked noisily. Then Bob proposed! . >MA merry Christmas to us all, my dears. God bless us." • W^hlch all the'family re-echoed. >God bless us every one!" said Tiny Tim, the last of all,—Christmas Carolr Stave 8. .

Scrooge inquired. "I should hope I did," replied the lad. "An Intelligent boy!" said Scrooge. "A remarkable boy! Do you know whether they've sold the prize turkey that wag hanging up there?— Not the little prise turkey, the big one?" "What, the one as big as me?" returned the boy. "What a delightful boy!" said Scrooge. "It's a pleasure to talk to him. Yes, ray buck!" "It's hanging there now," replied the boy. "Is it?" said Scrooge, "Go and buy It." "Walk-w!" exclaimed the boy. "No, no," said Scrooge, "I am in earnest. Go and buy it, and tell 'em to bring it here, that I may give them the directions where to take It. Come back with the man, and I'll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less than five minutes and TU give t,half*a-crown!" The boy was off like a shot. He must have had a steady hand at a trigger who. could have got a shot off half so fast. "I'll send it to Bob Crachit's," whispered Scrooge, rubbing his hands and splitting with a laugh. "He shan't know who sends i t It's twice the size of Tiny Tim. Joe Miller never made such a Joke as sending It to Bob's will be!" The hand in which he wrote the address was not a steady one; but write it he did, somehow and went down stairs to open the street door, rtady for the coming of the .poulterer's man. As he stood there, waiting his arrival, the knocker caught his eye. "I shall love It as long as I live!* cried Scrooge, patting it with his hand. "I scarcely ever looked at it before. What an honest expression It has In its face! It's a wonderful knocker!—Here's the turkey. Hallo! Whoop! How are you! Merry Christmas!" It was a turkey! He never could have stood upon his legs, that bird. He would have snapped 'em short off in a minute, like sticks of sealing wax. "Why, it's impossible to carry that to Camden Town," said Scrooge. "You must have a cab." The chuckle with which be said this, and the chuckle wttsr which he paid for the turkey, and the chuckle with which be paid for the cab, and the chuckle with which he recompensed the boy, were only to be exceeded by the chuckle with which he sat down breathless in his chair again, and chuckled t m he cried.

Actions speak louder than words and your sweetheart's handwriting is an action which will tell you things he may be, unable to say with his words. It will truly uncover also, his inner habits of thought which he himself may not even reatiae. Words often hide thought, but the handwriting of an individual is Buch a sure index of his inner nature tl*at for hundreds of years bade, business houses have advertised "write in your own handwriting" when seeking employees. Now the handwriting may look different each day, but close analysis reveals that It nevertheless follows certain rules of action which are characteristic of the writer. When the general habits of life, the occupation and experiences change, the general writing changes with these habits. A man who suddenly becomes rich writes a totally different handwriting in a few weeks than he did when he was looking around for a way to make a l»are living, The happy girl In love writes much differently than when repressing her emotions all of the time. Since our sweethearts and friends are such important things in life, let us find their "temperature" so that our hearts will not be broken expecting a feverish response from one who is selective, and ruled by the head instead of the heart. Use the barometer herewith, and find out first, the angle of writing. Secure at least twenty lines before Judging.

Has Ho a Dual Personality ? <? *y «*3J .... ; * « . «4H« • From the "iove barometer'* it Is seen that the backhand writer is cautious, calm in the affections, selective in friendships. A few may know his warmth, but to the many he is cool, reasons his a f f e c t i o n s , and often apSlant Varies pears the/efore exclusive. The cool intellect rules, more than the fiery Impulsive feelings. Other signs to be learned later, may, however, "warm him up a bit" The further one's writing "falls forward" the more quickly do one's demonstrations of affection show themselves. Like trees swaying in the breesse, the emotions are bent and expressed. The man with the very slanting handwriting marries a girl with an almost straight handwriting with other cold signs.^ She does her duty by her family, and is "sensibly*' affectionate, but wonders why her romantic husband with the pronounced slant to his writing goes on through life looking for romance in many fields. Msny writers you will notice, when you look at the slant of the writing, will vary In this slant to some extent, showing a balance between their heart and head, but if the writing Is markedly slanting in one section of the letter, and upright or backhand in another section, It is written by one with a dual personality. Sometimes he will be very responsive, but at others wilt suddenly and abruptly change to coldness, without any reason or any warning, with seemingly no memory for the feelings of before.

The land lies in one solid block, quite a little of it is covered by woods and it is well watered, Honey Creek running through the north end of it. This section is bounded on the north by aline two hundred feet south of the G. T. railroad, on the west by the lant lane which runs south from Marble's Corners, on the south by the Patterson Lake road,on the east by the road runs south from the Sprout cemetery, The people who sold options on their farms are as follows: John Dunn, James Doyle, William Murphy, William Cooper, Frank Haynes, Michael Roche, Mark McCleer, Mrs. Ed. Sprout, Percy Ellis, Roy Placeway, George Crane and Mrs. James Marble Some were bought outright, the owners getting the entire selling price as soon as they furnish a deedof the land while others are on contract*- calling for one fourth of the principal down and the rest to be paid in three years timeSome are options for $20C and expire March 1, 1927. We understand that options are also desired on other farms which have not yet been secured. Some of these are the lands owned by William Doyle and Mrs. Nora Sider The use to which this land is to be put is shrouded in mystery Mr. Dunn asked the man to whom he sold his eighty acres what the land was desired for and was told that it was to form part of a mamoth sheep ranch. However this theory is scouted by many although the report is current that Henry Ford has decided to go into the sheep business on a large scale in order to obtain wool <*f for his textile mill at Ypsilanti.Others believe a private game preserve is to be formed with hunting rights for members only as same of the best hunting lands in this section are included in the part sold. A few arc inclined to the belief that oi! may have been found in this tract Which of these theories is true time alone will tell The checks the sellers received were drawn on A. H, Hume of Wayne county. An epidemic of land development seems to have hit this section. Some time ago a Detroit man,Frank Waugh by name secured options on about1 5200 acres of land in Hamburg, Green Oak and Webster townships. The nature of this development is also a secret. Some of the farms involved are those of Edward Sheridan, Manly Bennett, Henry Queal, Ryan farm, Denehy farm, Kisby farm,, Owen Gallagher farm Shanahan farm and the farm owned by Cavanaugh and Burke. The realty men are evidently moving into "the country and if it keeps up will be as thick in this neck of the woods as theyare in Detroit at the present time. However all this developement can't hurt Pinckney any but will bring trade here the same way the lake frontage development has. 8 8 m -J • r a B M M M t f ncing Party A t Opera House EVENING, DEC. 10 VANDALISM Last Thursday night some hoodlums broke into the school in the Stackable district, east of town where Leo Mc- Clusky is teacher and smashed doors and windows, pulled up seats and committed other depredations. Mr. McClusky on opening school Friday morning saw the damage done and notified the school officers who in turn notified the sheriff. This is the second such outrage which has been perpetrated here and the culprits if caught will be given the full extent ofthe law. The officers have several persons under suspicion and believe the motive to be grudge work on the part of certain disgruntled parties.

'.), is one of the best farce comedies ever written. It is the story of two girls in a fashionable New York speciality shop who decidethat the way to nab a rich husband is to go to a big hotel in Florida, wearing the gowns that have made their shop famous, and to pose as wealthy widows, footloose and fancy free. They go. And they run into as an amusing set of complications as ever the ingenuity of a farce writer has devised. NOTICE A special communication of Livingston Lodge, No. 76, F. and A.

O' SCHOOL NOTES The children throughout the school are practising selections for a Xmas entertainment. The Juniors^nd Seniors in the high scftool are beginning the study of tiebating and oratory while those in the ninth and tenth grades are studying declaiming. This work, as in former years, is so arranged that practically everyone in school will be given an opportunity of taking part in it. The records of the library show that the students have read quite extensively during the first three months oof the year. The percent of failures for November is very low, however by a little more attention onon the part of those failing in their work, this percent could be made still lower. The eight grade had the highest averages in scholarship during the month of November. ICINGS DAUGHTERS MEET The November meeting of tho Kings Daughters was held at the home of Mrs. Ezra Brigham Thursday afternoon. After the devotional and business Session, an excellent report of the Annual State Convention was read by Mrs. Robert Jack and Mrs. Fred Read gave an interesting account of the Dinner and program at.the U. of M.

Miller on w - w . * - 1 Smart Buyers Come Were?* We're not getting all the tire business in town. We never expect to. But we are getting our share and our business is constantly growing. The reason for this is that car owners have found our location is convenient, our service prompt and Courteous, our merchandise of the highest quality and our prices surprisingly low. As a matter of fact, and we realize it sounds pretty strong, if every car owner in town who is not buying from us, really knew what we had to offer, we'd come pretty close to having a monopoly on the tire business here. We honestly believe this, because we're already selling to scores of the brainest tire buyers in town— smart people who look twice and think three times before they buy anything. If wre can satisfy them and keep on doing it—we can please you, too. 1 " — ^ - — * — — » — • Now that cold weather has come your car should be prepared for it.

IR-WI a ft Gad ren FEEDING PULLETS IN COLD SEASON ^ r • >JJJL Desire for Constant "Good Time" Responsible for Many Wrecked Careers By^P. E.

When he's in jail without his automobile and his g u n and his girl, all he needs, if he can be reformed, is the same sort of t r e a t m e n t that every criminal always has received. The right classification, the right schooling and the right training. If he is not a true .criminal he can be returned to society. A true criminal is a person who knowingly violates a law, for whatever reason, and who intends to keep on violating any law necessary to g a i n his end. Of the penal population o{ the country, not more than 20 per cent a r e true criminals. We w a n t to keep that percentage, keep it awav from society. We want to r e t u r n the other 80 per cent to society, if it's possible to do so. I- School System at Fault in Not Studying Emotional Life of Children By DR. A. L. JACOBY, Detroit Psychiatrist. Nearly every day we hear some one announce t h a t education is the one great cure for crime. B u t is this true? America has the greatest public educational system in the world and it also has the highest crime r a t e . The greatest fault with our schools is that they do not make an effort to understand pupils emotionally, and crime is nothing more than a m a l a d j u s t m e n t of emotions. Our schools have elaborate equipment to care for physical m a l a d j u s t m e n t s and psychological clinics are progressing rapidly in their effort to care for differences in mentalities. But . nothing is being done toward studying the emotional life of children. ] What I can't u n d e r s t a n d is t h a t school systems take no account of the emotional fitness of teachers for their task. A person who is charged \ with the development of children in the formative age, even though she passes quite satisfactorily the mental and physical requirements, cert a i n l y cannot be called a teacher unless she is equipped to understand a n d guide the emotional life of h e r children. 1 Productive Scholarship Rather Than Academic Rank Should Be University's Aim By PROFESSOR MUNRO, Princeton University. . * • > ' T o o much stress is now laid upon the money value of academic Tank.

ALWARD, President American Furniture M a r t iV 'y* • * ; • « * Opportunities for women ? All you have to do is to call the roll ft? the Chicago world of business to get the answer. Women today are Carrying on shoulder to shoulder with the men in every activity of civic, commercial and professional life. They are a vital factor in industry. If Mr. Greeley were alive today, he would supplement his famous advice with "6* West; young woman." Chicago offers opportunities to jptmg women of ambition equaled by few cities in the world. That is , of ooorat^teethe vast development here, the ceaseless expansion of lines of Iwgineia. Th«f^it * <3^cago type of young woman just at there is a Chicago mwiijt nikd hor doing a plot than of the world's a career lor heraeH Pullets must be well developed, vlg- [ orous anil must carry a surplus of i body fat If they are to produce heavily during the winter uiontha. D. C. Henderson, poultry specialist In the South Dakota State college extension service, says that pullets which come Into laying with weak frames und undeveloped bodies usually break down under the strain of egg production during the winter months. He advises a careful feeding program for pullets so that they will have the surplus body fat so necessary to heavy egg production. "Feeds containing protein' and minerals are essential for proper growth of bones, feathers and musnles," he pays. "Skim milk, if available In sufficient quantity, Is an excellent feed. The birds should be given access to the milk at all times. It can be fed either in the sweet or sour form. "If the milk is limited, part of the protein may be supplied through the use of meat scraps or tankage in a mash mixture." A dry mash mixture which Henderson advises for satisfactory development of pullets fs composed of one part each by weight of cornmeal, ground heavy oats, wheat bran, hour middlings and tankage. One pound of salt should be added to each 10() pounds of mash. If a limited amount of milk is available, one-half part of tankage may be fed In the mash. Dry mash should he kept in the hoppers before the birds at all times. Grain is necessary for the proper storing of a reserve of fat in the body, states the specialist. Late hatched pullets should be forced heavily with both bran and mash to develop flesh and bone, essential in continuous heavy egg production. Early hatched pullets, that are well developed and are coming into laying should be fed heavily on grain feeds and sparingly on dry mash. The pullet flock must carry a surplus of body flesh, obtained primarily from grain feeds. If they are to give profitable winter egg production. FEEDS FOR EWES DURING WINTER f< Late Laying Hens Best for Building Up Flock Eggs usually are the chief source of income from the farm poultry business and one of the quickest ways to build up the egg-laying capacity of the flock Is to breed from the best of ' the late laying hens rather than from the young pullets which have not had a chance to show their worth as layers. Only those late laying hens which have the proper size, type and other desirable characteristics should be used In the breeding pen. Poorly colored birds and those with disqualifications, such as side sprigs jon the comb und stubs on the legs, are un- \ desirable as breeders, the poultrymen say. The most desirable of the late laying hens which molt as late as September 15 or later should be mated with the best males of the flock or ' preferably with males secured from a breeder of a good strain of production- bred stock. The feeding of the ewe flock duriog the winter months depends a great dpal on tiie condition of the ewes at the beginning of winter. If the ewes are In good flesh and In a vigorous condition, explains W. C. Skelley, assistant animal husbandman at the New Jersey State College of Agriculture, leguminous roughages such as alfalfa, clover, oats and peas, and soy bean hay, will be sufficient for the greater part of the pregnancy period. Tiihothy and marsh hays should never be fed to ewes, as they are constipating and may cause losses. Another objection to timothy hay is that the heads get into the wool, making it hard to shear and lowering its market price. Where corn stalks are available they may be added to the legume iiay, as they give good results and also cut down costs. Roots and silage if available may be added to the ration in moderate amounts, but care should be taken to see that they are not frozen, moldy, or sour, for they may cause abortion. If the ewes are in poor condition at the beginning of winter, a small amount of grain should be added to their ration, A good mixture is two parts of oats, one part of corn, and one part of bran, fed in amounts pt about half pound to each ewe a day. One of the problems of the sheep owner is to have his ewes give enough milk for the lamb. Frequently, when ewes have been fed the entire winter on roughage, they have no milk. This difficulty can be overcome, however, by light grain feeding, beginning four to six weeks before the ewes are due to lamb. Two parts of oats and one part of bran make an excellent mixture fed at about the rate of half a pound to each ewe a day. Another point to keep in mind about the ewes is to see that they get plenty of exercise, since this insures stronger and healthier lambs, and the ewes will have less trouble In delivery. To get them to take exercise a good plan Is, on bright clear days, to scatter some of their roughage in the field and allow them to feed in the open. On wet stormy days they should be kept inside, as their fleece will get wet and colds or pneumonia may result. \ F l e t c h e r ' s Castoria is a pleasant, h a r m - less Substitute for C a s t o r Oil, Paregoric, T e e t h i n g D r o p s a n d Soothing S y r u p s , especially p r e p a r e d for, I n f a n t s in a r m s a n d C h i l d r e n all a g e s .

Have Kidneys Examined By Your Doctor Take Salts to Wash Kidneys rf Back Pains You or Bladder Bothers Arranging Nests for Easy Cleaning Is Best Plan Arrange nests for the hens and the ; new pullets as soon as possible. It Is best they become accustomed to this equipment so that they are not ! afraid of It later on. Lf possible, build ; the nests In a loitg row, using a 12- | Inch board for the base, and square , sections of same for partitions. Fasten j together with hooks like screen door [ hooks, so the whole structure will I come apart for thorough cleaning.

Success in Hog Raising Depends on Management Farmers In all parts of the country In recent years have undertaken to some extent the business of hog growing, says the United States Department of Agriculture. For many years farmers, particularly in the principal corn-growing states, have recognized that hog raising is one of the quickest and surest ways to market their crops Success In this enterprise depends In large measure upon proper management and suitable equipment, according to Farmers' Bulletin 1400-F, "Hog- Lot Equipment," Just Issued by the department. Defective fences, say the authors, are responsible for considerable annoyance, disagreement among neighbors, damage to gardens and crops, and often for the appearance of disease. The average farm fence is more often unsatisfactory because of faulty construction than on account of unsuitable materials. Woven wire Is regarded by the deportment as the most practical hog-tight fence. The durability of this type of fenre, says the bulletin, depends largely upon how securely the corner posts are set. The new publication contains numerous other suggestions as to troughs, feeding floors or platforms, self-feeders, hay feeders, shades, oilers and dipping vats, wallows, breeding and Rhlpplng crates, loading chutes, scales, record books and other equipment. A copy of the bulletin may be obtained free, as long as the supply lasts, by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington. D. C. Flush your kidneys by drinking a quart of water each day, also take salts occasionally, says a noted authority, who tells us that too much rich food forms acids which almost paralyze the kidneys in their efforts to expel It from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken; the" you may suffer with a dull misery In the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue Is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and Irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days, and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithla, and has been used for years to help flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer Irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts Is Inexpensive, cannot Injure and makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink. KEEP COUGHS OUT OF "DANGER ZONE" Coughing irritates your throat and makes you cough more.

Lose Fight For Vet's Insurance « • One Wife Is Declared Divorced and Other Not Legally Wed. Chicago.—Two wives—one divorced and the other never legally wed— a gray-haired father and an "Enoch Arden" who never returned were the central figures In a drama that grew out of the World war and came to an end In the courtroom of Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson when a jury decided that the aged father was entitled to the $10,- 000 life Insurance of MaJ. Mark W. Hanna, Jr., who died as he charged a machine gun nest in France an hour or two before the armistice ended hostilities. The finding of the Jury not only designated the father, Thomas M. Hanna of Iowa, as the rightful heir, but it brought two other matters to a decision by declaring that Mrs. Hallie Schroeder of San Antonio, Tex., the divorced wife, was the legal mate of Hanna at the time of his death, and that Mrs. Corinne Hanna of Kansas City, who married him Just before he went to France and drew his Insurance until the government stopped it, was never legally married to him, because the previous marriage was still in force. Involved Veteran's Rights. The drama is one of the strangest that has come out of the war and the first of its kind that has gone to the Federal court for decision. The finding in it was awaited with particular Interest, not only because it would set a precedent, but because it Involved the rights of the veterans' bureau to pass upon the morals and personal liberties of beneficiaries under a war risk Insurance policy. The reason the government originally stopped the insurance payments to Mrs. Corinne Hanna, after paying her nearly $2,000, was that she was friendly with Joe Wagner, a Kansas City gang leader now serving 15 years in the Iowa penitentiary for bank robbery, and was therefore not entitled to government money. On this point the jury found her not guilty. Divorced and Married Again. The facts, as brought out in court, were that Mark W. Hanna married Mrs. Hallle Schroeder In San Antonio In 1915, then separated from her within a month and later entered the army. Mrs. Schroeder lost track of him, she said, and did not know he was dead when she obtained a divorce in 1919. She later married again. In the meantime Major Hanna, although not divorced, the evidence showed, married again Just prior to going overseas. He was then killed on November 11, 1018, and Mrs. Corinne Hanna, the second "wife," became the beneficiary of his $10,000 government Insurance. The father of Hanna was named as the next beneficiary If Mrs. Corinne Hanna died. Mrs. Hanna appealed the decision, t-i 111 M I 111 1 1 1 1 1 1 n i i i i - n i '.] Ex-Servant Turns Joke •• Back on Queen Mary ;; London,-—Queen Mary enjoys •• *" a Joke equally as well as the '.', :: king. •• \\ Returning from Scotland, the \\ • • queen has been telling friends of " \\ visits with some of the retired '•> • • royal servants whom she has *) ['. known for years.

The water beetles composing the collection belong to the family dytlscidae and haliplldae, representing approximately 400 North American kinds and 200 additional exotic kinds. The collection is fairly complete for the North American species of these beetles. All the specimens are in excellent preservation and well mounted and labeled. Aside from its completeness, the peculiar merit of the collection lies In tbe many specimens of each species included. This will permit a study of the variation of species, which Ls not possible with the ordinary collection containing only three or four specimens of each kind.

Whale, Stranded, Dies on New England Coast Roston. — A 48-foot whale, the ftrst to come ashore along the New Hampshire coast In more than 20 years, was marooned high and dry recently on the rocks of the northern point of Great Boar's Head. When he was first seen he was alive, but, presumably suffering from a complication of chagrin and exposure, he died. Just plain hard luck, apparently, benet this monstrous mammal. In the first place, he must have lost his bearings, for he was straying far from the usual haunts of his kind. A whale who can't find his way around In ths ocean might Just as well quit before any other trouble begins. This fellow probably was floating, maybe sound asleep, out somewaers on the briny. The first thing this whale knew he was in the breakers. Being heavy, for his estimated weight Is somewhere between 15 and 20 tons, he couldn't get out to sen again. Out went the tide in the usual manner, hut our whale was stranded high up on the harsh rocks. He thrashed his ponderous tail about and strove mightily to regain his accumstomed element, but all Jn vain. ifSllMli r 'J" W . i . * * ; > • ' What to a Diuretic? *~ /isaoJ* Arm Lemvbtf tktYehm ef Ike.

"When I first went to work my pay was $jfe a moDth. After a few months I was promoted. I was several years ID that office In different positions and I learned every branch of the business. "One of my Jobs consisted largely in making intricate calculations of discounts, interest accretions and other complicated figures. At school, my mathematics had'been my weak point and yet this Job was right in my line for a certain promotion that I was looking forward to. "It was somewhat of a dilemma. While I was thinking it over I suddenly remembered having seen in Scotland, where I came from, a book which contained all sorts of tables. By turning to the right table almost any mathematical problem that would arrive in business could be solved instantly and correctly. "For several weeks I haunted the bookshops for this book, during which I had a perfectly wretched time with n j work and then I found it. I took It back to the office—without however, mentioning It to any one>—and from that time my Job was a cinch.—Robt B. M. Cowie."

I R V I N Q K I N Q THE BRIDE'S BOUQUET EVERYBODY knows the custom of weddings when, at the going away of the bride, she throws her bouquet over the stair railing and there is a struggle among the maidens gathered below to see who will catch it. The one who Is successful, the superstition is, will be the next one to be married out of the company. It Is one of those superstitious practices which are Indulged In with a laugh and a half-belief, and "I wonder If there's anything In it." But away down deep in the heart of the participants Is the real belief that there is "something In it" and the results are closely looked after "Just to see." The bride's bouquet superstition Is merely an application of the primitive doctrine of contagious magic. The bouquet of the bride, coming fresh from the hands of the newly married maiden, is charged by contagions magic with her own personality which is largely, under the circumstances, matrimonial— with what-Mr. Clodd would call the "mana." that is, authority, influence, magical or supernatural power. The Polynesian* use the word "mana" to express just this Idea in their primitive magic and the word has been adopted into English as a handy one by writers on folk-lore. This contagion is communicated to the maiden who catches the bouquet and, of course, if she reacts at all to the Infection, she Is sooner married than her companions who have not been thus exposed. This primitive conception of contagion can be traced in many current superstitions, is ns old as the caveman, or older, and is In full force among peoples still In a primitive state.

Hoyt's wit operated like that—Instantaneously and with emphasis. One night shortly before his death he was leaning agnlnst the counter In a chop house when an actor who was notoriously stingy carr.e in. accompanied by two friends. The close-fisted one and Hoyt were not on the best of terms, but the former was feeling a bit hollow himself and. »ioved by a sudden and almost unprecedented hurst of generosity, he turned to the playwright and said pntronizincly: "Charley, will you Join u.s?

It was copied by the famous 1'arislan milliner. Just as the lines of the new chapeaus differ so do the materials oat of which they are made. Fashion dictates a variety of fabrics in felt as well as in velvets. There Is the ordinary felt, the soft, shining feutre solei! and the taupe solell, another new felt which has an Angora-like texture. Velvet, so long attempting to break into the monopoly of the felt vogue, has at last attained its goal with a bang of popularity that augurs an indefinite stay. Velvets plain, and •velvets combined smartly with rib bons of satJn, grosgralD anri felts fash- Ion the new hats of utmost chic. Outstanding In the mode, because of Its newness, is the softly draped highcrowned velvet hat. Some recede from the forehead to resemble the silhouette of the African belle's head, un<l some are draped low on the side with long, sweeping trimmings. It is from Interesting Extreme* of the Millinery Fsshlon of Today. these two basic principles that the new African turban goes its numereus chic ways. The wide-brimmed felt trimmed with a narrow contrasting band, worn by Marlon Davies, film star, and the narrow- brimmed felt trimmed with n wide band, chosen by Louise Lorraine, the well-known motion picture player, are outstanding hats of the sport type. Brimless turbans of velvet, draped in various smart new ways, are attracting much attention. Metallic Fabrics Gain With Fashionable Women The popularity of the metallic fabrics, gold and sliver cloth, lame and brocaded silks and metal combined* remains in the ascendency, More and more are the scintillating and glistening imported fabrics being utilised for the development of the elaborate negligees, while even the mannish tailored robes are claiming a share of shimmering materials. These same fabrics along with many of the allsilk patterns in sharp high colors are used profusely In negligees. Large sleeves and side drapes are noted features. Ostrich, curled and nncurled, marabou, and the combination of both, are seen as trimmings In all colors and styles. Printed silks are shown in straight pullman types banded with plain colors to match or contrast. Gold moire lame, silver and Jade metal cloth, and deverly blended oriental colorings in a gold background are all displayed among brocaded chiffons and satins. Quilted robes rereal pastel shades with plain trimmings, embroidery in an allOTsr pattern atop of the quilting, £ne lace In rows and flower treatments. Several colors combined In flat bands are seen on a robe of small quilting, while another model displays an allover embroidered design on a peach body, and pufBng at tba collar, chffi and pocket. Pajamas strike sn unusual note In their vest effect, and use of the Russian collar lines and side openings. A distinctive model of violet crepe de chine Is banded In three shades of velvet ribbon, which In torn are outlined in gold thread. New Girdles Fit Waistline New fashions that emphasise a natvral waistline demand something mora than the boneless corselette which has been sufficient with atraightllne frocks.

Milady can tell her fortune With this neat daytime frock of turquoise blue Elizabeth crepe, (t is trimmed with dozens of gold buttons and gold braid. Little Things That Are Important in Fashions Hatpins are by no means out of fashion; quite to the contrary, only the shape and length have been changed, as everything else milady wears. The smartest ones are now of crystal made in the. shape of two paddles Joined with a narrow band of Jet. Sometimes they are of clear crystal, sometimes opaque, and very often a combination of the two, They are designed to hold in place the folds of the new soft-crowned felt or velvet hats. Earrings are also always in fashion. The very latest ones are designed to be worn with the ever-popular slave bracelets. They have an Imitation gem, sapphire, ruby or emerald matching those In the bracelet, set between long, narrow gold links, also corresponding to those of the bracele and very becoming to those who can wear the long earring. The newest garters seen in a specialty shop come of narrow blue Bilk elastic with a finely plaited frill of malines of the same shade which has a row of tiny silver pailletes or sequins along the edge. Other garters come of a narrow velvet ribbon which has a big circle of ostrich feathers of the same shade and a doll's head In the center. Two new envelope bags have recently appeared. One is in velvet, In red, blue or white, heavily embroidered in an all-over design of pearl beads with here and there a sparkling rhlnestone. The other is of stripes of gold kid and white patent leather. Women's belts of heavy red leather with a small mother-of-pearl buckle, are very smart with the sweater or sports suit and are even worn with the new fur sports coat. Ribbons Have Call for Millinery This Season Ribbons seem logically to belong more to millinery than to any other part of the costume as presented In the fashions of the day. This season's ribbons Include many novelties and a tendency to richness of quality. Soma among the new hats are made entirely of ribbon, somewhat after the manner of the summer styles, but of ribbon In velvet, heavy satin, groav gnain and metal. Orosgrain is the most in demand among the silk ribbons, metallic ribbons among the novelties. There Is a heavy double-faced satin ribbon for plain hats. In the wider ribbons are three tones in delicate colors and two-tones in the double- faced ribbons. The new weaves in moire hsve a flne high luster and one of the handsomest of the metal ribbons is multicolored, In cubist pattern. A ribbon with bold bars is used for hatbands and the velvet ribbons in bols da rose, myrtle green. Chanel red, beiga, wood browns and Roman stripes are being used for trimming both gowns and hats. Reds Favored; Greens Second in Popularity Reds are Important colors, with greens pressing dosely for second place. All tones of bine are regarded with considerable favor and it ts felt that their vogue will increase ss the season advances.

There la a tone of solemn and sacred feeling that blends with our conviviality, and lifts the spirit to a state of hallowed and elevated enjoyment.'' From the early centuries of Christianity the anniversary of the birth of Christ has been celebrated. It is called "Christmas" because in early England the festival was called "Christesmesse," which means "Christ's mass." At first the time of the festival varied In different places. Some % churches observed It In December, others In Jan- **uaryv April, May. There is no historical record aa to the exact birth date of Christ. It seems possible, says Lillian Eichler in her "Customs of Mankind," that December 25 was established as the festival day because it marki d the beginning winter festival when Britons, Geriu! s made merry In pagan fashion. >tbaw* old pagan festivities, _ 0*4'Wit ding Into the customs ^*e* etftpC. . " ^ f t N p n b e r 25, as Christmas. spread to varlous"p1itts*"*ot the Christian world. later, aa the festival spread, differences In date occurred owing to differences In calendar. But the general belief prevailed that Christ was born "at the hour of midnight on Christmas eve." Many of our popular holidays appear to have been nature festivals at one time. Easter and May day were very likely spring festivals; Halloween, as autumn festival. Christmas was originally a festival of the winter solstice* At this period of the year It was customary to hold great feasts Is honor of the heathen gods, to dance and make merry. But the early teachers of Christianity prohibited these ttve festivities as unsuited to the character at the old festival was not discarded entirely, symbols and customs were adapted to the new to celebration of the anniversary of „ _ . ' • nativity. And so we find Christmas pettamed with many curious customs that are of pacta origin. The Tula log, the holly, and the mistletoe go much farther back Into antiquity than we suspect - It is said that the first Christmas day festival bald in Britain was ^lehrated by King Arthur in the city of York, A, D. 681.

The Puritans developed a keen distaste for the Christmas festivities, and prevailed upon parliament to prohibit them. Christmas was declared a day of fast, and festivities were prohibited by law. After the Restoration, however, the old observances came back—somewhat subdued, but gay and festival as ever. The observance of the Christmas festival spread all over the Christian world. The date is not everywhere the same, nor are the customs Identical. January 6 Is the date observed In the Armenian church. The Dutch watch for St. Nicholas on the eve of December 6. The French have their own particular Christmas observances; the Germans have theirs, But wherever and whenever Christmas Is celebrated, It Is a day of rejoicing and good cheer. At one time the customs and observances that we associate with Christmas had a very definite significance. Today they survive as part of our social scheme. In America we have made of Christmas a period of great social activity. The old customs of other lafcds, combined with tender memories of the first Christmasfcs In this country, make of thev holiday a rare Interval of Joy and cheer which find expression In a semlsoclal, sfinlreltRious celebration. Everybody wishes everybody else a merry 'Christmas, ftnd evtn the echoes are glad : The first Christmases In America were not the gay festivities to which we are accustomed. They were dayVltke all the rest, devoted to work and prayer. Governor Bradford wrote. "Ye 25th day begane to erect ye first house for comone use to receive them and their goods." A few years after this was written the Church of England established Christmas services in Boston. Our Christmas celebration carries threads from many lands. People coming here from France, England, Germany, Norway, Italy—all brought their own customs with them. Our Christmas tree and Santa Claua are Imported. Our carols and our stocking superstition came from across the ocean. Even our "Merry Christmas" belongs to England. Yet our Christmas festivities are individual, American. They are like those of no one country, but like a tapestry that has been patterned with many beautiful threads, our festivities reflect the customs, belief8, and superstition* of many and widely separated lands. Jolly old Santa Clans with his tinkling sleigh bells and pack of toys Is very closely associated with the American Christmas. Our children hang up their stockings In high glee, fully believing that 8anta will come down the chimney and fill them with good things, until, of course, they are old enough to separate fact from Infancy, or until some cruel person shatters the beautiful belief. Santa came to America by way of Holland. The old Dutch settlers of New York brought with them all the Joyous and hospitable observances of their fatherland. They introduced to their neighbora in the New world St. Nicholas, or San Ntcolaas, patron saint of children. And San Nlcolaas promptly grew a long white beard, belted hto Jovial stoutness In a red coat, and made his bow to America as Santa Clans! England, too, has Its Santa Clan*. The name appears to be derived In slurred Interpretation from San Nlcolaas, the English for which would be St Nicholas. According to thf- popular myth, both here and In England; Santa Clans Is supposed to sweep down the chimney, and fill the stockings hanging before the fireplace with gifts. St Nicholas became everywhere the cbild'i saint though his personatltr nnderwent some striking changes as ha traveled from country to catmtry. la Holland ha remained 8 t Nicholas, bat alt aaraonaU'ty waa modified by memories of WoM, god of the elements end the harvaat Ha baeaam the patron taint of the children of franca, atthoagh it la Bonbotnme Noel (Father Ckrtatmaa, •naiitmmi callad Para Wool) who brtnaa the good tfctaas fat the children. la Germany the Ofariat* klndleln Is the patron saint of the children. From this German phrase for Christ Child comes our synonym for Santa Glaus—Krlss Krlngle. Among the Norwegians, the toys are hidden away in unexpected places and the children search for them. In Italy the gifts are drawn from what is known an "The Urn of Kate." This custom originated with the ancient Romans who had also nn "Urn of Fate" from which gifts were drawn. In Spain there are elaborate street festivals at which the children receive gifts. This age-old custom of presenting the children with gifts makes Christmas one <>f our most enjoyable festivals. In "Elizabeth and Her (German Garden" the thought is beautifully expressed. • For days beforehand, every time the three bablei go Into th»- garden they expect to meet the ChrtBt Child with His arms full of gift*. They firmly believe that It is thus their presents are brought, and it Is such a charming idea that Chrlatmaa would b« worth celebrating for its take alone. There Is an ancient tradition in Holland that St. Nicholas makes his rounds upon Woden's horse, Slelpner. This famous old horse of Dutch mythology is represented by the reindeer whose hoofs our children are supposed to hear on Christmas eve. j According to the old tale, the children of Amsterdam set their little wooden shoes In the chimney comers because they believed Slelpner would pas* by unless he saw them there. And St. Nicholas would gtve no gifts unless he saw the little ghoes in a row by the chimney place and so knew that the children were tucked away in bed. Evidently some parents of long ago created the myth for their own convenience; It spread quickly, as such things do. and gradually became an established custom. From Holland the custom spread to France, and children were taught to place their wooden shoes upon the hearth to receive the gifts of Bonhomme Noel. In Germany and Scandinavia the gifts are not placed In the fthoe, but hidden In out-of-theway places about the house. The stockings that the children of England and the United States hang up on Christmas eve de* veloped from the shoe. Shoes won't stretch, you know, and stockings are so much more roomy 1 Thus the shoe of Amsterdam became the stocking of New Amsterdam, and the custom was established. There existed in the east of Russia, among the peasantry, an old custom whereby the young girl discovered through divination whom she would have as husband. The traditional formula, still prevalent, la, "Come and take my stockings oft." Among the professional classes, and sometimes In the lesser nobility, parents placed money la the stockings of their child-—boy or girl—at marriage aa asgift for the other partner in the ceremony. Borne writers, prominently among them Havelock Kills, believe that the custom of hanging up the stocking at Christmas la a ratla of these two customs from Roesla. *<£:W :&>> r/'c . * ^ •£« DISEASE KNOWN AS LOVE By H.

"You are making it in the interests of civilization. You have weighed the consequences? You know that It will mean persecution, ostracism, aDd, worst of all, the existence within your system of a diabolical germ, which has become so rare thut It is necessary to demonstrate its existence by performing this Inoculation 7" "I have considered all the consequences, gentlemen," replied the young man. The three professors addressed the nurse. "No. B 27 P F 7," began the second professor, "you, too, have volunteered to sacrifice your happiness for the Bake of science? You, too, are undergoing this martyrdom with a full knowledge of the consequences?" The other two asked her almost the same question, though not In identical worda. There was a faint smile upon the nurse's face as she replied : "Yes, gentlemen, I am prepared to suffer this martyrdom," she answered. "Then you have both been warned, as is required by law," said the eldest professor. "I shall now proceed to Inoculate you both with the rare germ known as dlplococcus amorls, found only In Patagonia and FIJI." It waa a weighty experiment During the three centuries that had elapsed love had become rarer and rarer. Marriages were now and had long been regulated by the state. Spasmodic cases of love had been reported to the medical faculty, but except for these epidemics, now becoming rarer as the principles of hygiene were better understood, there had not been a case In years. It was the desire of the physlclRns to observe a genuine case of love, In order to revise the textbooks of this disease, that had led the professors to cast about for two suitable subjects. As soon as the disease developed they were to he placed for a period of years upon a desert island, to avoid the spread of the malady.

"It Is a splendid thing to sacrifice ourselves for science," said A, 69 W Y 14, enthusiastically. "Yes, it Is, Indeed," answered B 27 F F 7. Nevertheless the same faint, almost Inscrutable smile played about her features as she spoke. The young man wondered whether the nurse had fully realized the nature of the experiment, the suffering that It would entall. However, he said nothing, but bared his arm for the Inoculation with the rare microbe, a supply of which had come from the FIJI Islands only a few days before. The first professor, having sterilised his needle, drew up a minute quantity of gelatin oat of a tube. In this substance were millions of the deadly dlplococcus. He Inserted the polut of the hypodermic luto the young man's arm. A 60 W P 14 did not flinch at the pain. Then, having withdrawn the needle, the professor performed the same operation on the young woman. Everybody noticed that the same faint and Inscrutlble smile played about her features, but nobody commented upon that fact. Even in 2215 It waa the privilege of young women to smile. The operations completed, the professors solemnly shook hands with the victims. "In thrsa hours," said the middle professor, "the iymptoms should begin to tske effect This Is 115 o'clock.

At that hour the boat will be waiting to convey yon to your Island home.'* Tht profeason* withdrew, leaving the young idctims together in the laboratory of the science building.

He waa not so sure, now, that he had done a foolish tiling. "I)o you regret the sacrifice, B 27 F K 7?" he inquired curiously. "Not a bit." aaawered the young woman. "May 1 ask why you are smiling?" She smiled more significantly. "That is my secret," she auawered. "Some clay I wlil tell you." "When?" "When we are alone together." "But we shall never be more alone than we are now." "I know. But you see, A 68 W P 14, the virus has not yet begun to take effect In you." "1 know It hasn't I wonder how It will feel. They say that the lirst sign is fever. 1 wish 1 had a shorter nam* for you."

"Why not?" "That is part of the secret, too," ah* said. He turned indignantly. He had meant to turn away. Instead of which, to his surprise, he found that he was standing nearer to her than he had ever stood before.

Why am I doing this?" he cried. "Is It—ia it the symptoms?" She nodded again. "It begins that way," she answered. "What a curious disease," said the young man thoughtfully. "Do yon know, I don't believe I shall really mind being exiled with you on ow island. Of course, a woman's nampany la apt to prove tedious. One doesn't expect the same intellectual companionship that a man's company affords. And then, I don't know that I shall have very much to say to you. But you will be useful for cooking my meals, and sometimes I will tell you things, and—H The girl for the first time uttered a hearty laugh. The young man seemed in a daze. He passed his hand across his forehead. "As I was saying," he resumed, **it will be delightful helping each other in the little things of the day, and In the evenings we'll sit and chat by the camp fire and compare notes and e x perlencea—" The silvery ripple of her mlrtii seemed to fill the room. Again thtt young man was struck silent "'Why are you laughing at me?* he cried at length. "Don't you want my devotion? Don't you want me to wait on you, to learn from you, to ait at your feet as your slave? Is there somebody else you prefer? I can hardly wait for the boat to arrive, I—I—-I—I believe I—love you.

Pinckney challenged them to defend it and a game yvas arranged for Thanksgiving day at Pinckney.' he fast quarter the visitors > nL-ld Pinckney fairly even, but after f that by means of line plunges, the /; Pinckney team who were much faster, stronger and better versed in the, game than their opponents had littler1 difficulty in winning, the visitors be-> ing unable to stand the terrific assaul to which their line was subjected to They only made four first downs (.luring the game, two of these coming on forward passes while Pinckney was held for downs but twice and forced to punt but once. The home team opened up with a forward pass attack which however went wrong being caught by a Michigan Center man rnd his teammates by means of a varied attack managed to carry the bail to the ten yard line. Here they elected to try a goal from placement which failed and never again during the game did they threaten to score. Pinckney continued the forward pass attack most of the first quarter b u t were unsuccessful only completing one in about a dozen attempts which was caught by Weddige. Swarthout and Harold Reason were sent around end but failed to make the long runs which it has been their custom to pull oif. Then with Weddige carrying the ball most of the time the local lads started their assault on the Michigan Center line which proved a winner. Weddige playing his last game game for Pinckney proved the star of the game never failing to gain from five to ten yards on each attempt and earring the ball about one half of the time. It was chiefly owing to his ability to go through the line that Pinckney made her first touchdown and led at the end of ine first quarter by a score of 0 to 0. The rest of the game was a repetition of the first half ,the horn:1 teamfaiiing on an open attack but succeedir.e; on the mass attack on the Michigan Center line. The1 visiting team p'-rs.'.steU in the belief that they could gain through the Pinckney line and directed most of their attacks against it in the first three quarters but were unable to make any gains which would put them in scoring position, and were held for downs or forced topunt about every time they had the ball. In th( last half they completed two forward passes and had the ball on the twenty yard line as the game ended. Pinckney.. Lineup Campbell, L. E. Graves, L. T. M. Nash, L. G. Carr, C. N. Miller, R. G.

Within the stately walls of the ancient abbey no fewer than 43 members of the royal house of Savoy, 21 of whom wore crowns, He burled. The most recent royal visitor to the tombs of his forbears was Prince Umberto, the Italian crown prince. The abbey of Hautecombe wtu founded by St. Bernard in 1135. In the old abbey an apartment ia kept ever In readiness for the king of Italy, but It has never been used by the Italian royal family. A few years ago the king of Italy visited the abbey incognito, and it was only some days later that the monks learned that the visitor they had shown around the monastery was Its royal owner, for Hautecombe Is the property of the Italian crown. The 43 royal tombs In the chapels and crypt of the abbey date from 1162, when Anne-Germalne de Zoerlngen. second wife of Umberto III, was laid to rest, to 1849, when Marie-Christine of Bourbon, dowager queen of Sar- SCIENCE ASKS WHAT MAKES BABY GURGLE Picked Group to Be Studied in Ideal Home. New York.—In all tLo thousands of years that fathers and mothers have watched their children they bare never explained how a gurgling baby masters the sounds that make op human speech.

As a result some most Interesting conclusions have been drawn In a recent report of "Handedness" prepared by John G. Kirk, director of the department. That ancient plere of wisdom, which scientists of another generation propounded to the effect that changed writers become stutterers, has been proved a superstition. And the utrange phenomenon of the youngster who can scribble with the "wrong hand" better than with his right is being explained away as a habit thnt can readily be changed without either mental or physical harm to the child. It Is because city school heads believe that the left-handed child Is socially and vocationally handicapped In a right-handed world that efforts will be made In the early grades of Philadelphia schools to tench the child to write the "natural way," of left to right Instead of from right to left, which produces "mirror writing." dlnla, purchased the abbey of Haute-j of Doctor and Mrs. Jones. The rhild personnel of the home has not been finally completed, Doctor,Jones said.

Secure Special Housing. A home for the babies has been purchased In New York, and financial, arrangements for the project have been made, so that the experiment may be continued for at least the next three years. Plans are being developed by the psychologists whereby individual mothers and Institutions throughout the country enn co-operate and In return receive reports on the experimental findingR. The importance of establishing a home in which n large group of normal children might be observed from Infancy, in order that complete records of their behavior could be made, was stressed several years ago by Dr. John Watson, well-known psychologist of this city. The project Just started Is, In some respects, the first approach toward a realization of this proposal, Doctor Jones said. New York.—The New York d t j water supply is threatened by subter ranean cracks, which are slowly drain ing the $160,000,000 Ashokan. reservoir In the Catsklil mountains, th New York Herald-Tribune says. Th reservoir ia twelve miles long and three miles wide. A recent survey, the newspape says, supports the theory that millions of gallons are seeping away through the veins and thence to (the surface again in adjacent witer courses. The reservoir, describedj as rivaling the Panama canal as an lengineerlog achievement, is virtually empty. There has been no lack! of rain, however, and feed streams are flush from bank to bank. f Esopus creek, the main source \ of supply, has been found to diminish its flow shortly after entering the great basin, only to rise a few miles bekrw the dam to full power. It is said fo be delivering only 200,000,000 gallons dally of- the 450,000,000 gallons needed for New York. Of the 180,000,000,0qu gallons the reservoir was designed to hold less than 16,000,000,000 remain. Thaddeus Merrlman, chief engineer of the board of water supply, denied that the diminishing water supply in the Ashokan reservoir was due to seepage through subterranean cracks. The shortage, he said, was due to the fact that there was little snow last winter and a small amount of rainfall during the summer.

Chicken Blood "Flows in Fake German Duels Berlin.—Fake student duels. stage.u for the benefit of tourists who want to see the "real" German university life, have sent the police on a cleanup campaign throughout the Rhineland. An American, visiting his former home In the Rhineland. exposed the fraud to the police. Six roadhous* keepers near Heidelberg, Frankfort nnd Cologne have been arrested. They are charged with collecting admission fees ranging from 2r> cents to $1, to witness the duels which tourists were told were regularly fought in the roadhouse courtyards by members of student fraternities. Police found professional duelists posing as students, fighting in Jackets stained with blood represented as having flowed from wounds received in Immediately previous encounters. The blood was that of chickens. The police also found there was no surgical reason why the heads of duelists were swathed In bandages. Salivary Glands Hold Mystery for Physiologist Battle Creek, Mich.—It Is, of course, well known that the sight or smell, or even the thought of food can provoke a profuse salivation In a hungry Individual. But the sense of taste act differently, according to the work of Dr. W. N. Boldyreff, physiologist here. "Agreeable foods," Doctor Boldyreff explained, "diminish the activity of the salivary giand.i, while disagreeable substance, such as acids or alkalis, increase It. In the latter case the flow of saliva mfly triple itself, , and in the former case it may be re- i duced by one-third." i No explanation Is given of this un- i expected finding. In the case of "disagreeable" substances, it is probable that nature Is attempting to dilute | and wash away the offender. But why j the salivary glands should become \ shy and bashful in the presence of beefsteak Is as yet an unexplained mystery. The experiment is, however, a valuable demonstration of the totally different effects obtained when an organ is stimulated through different routes.

In some variations the crown leans back, emphasized by tiers or rows of ribbon, resulting in a peak shape too harsh for the average profile.

One example is the turban, the crown of which is fairly high and gently, Instead of sharply, slanting. Folds and soft draping give the impression of the forehead receding silhouette without the difficult backward line. Generally brims are permitted to use their initiative this season, there being no set rale for their size or shape. A slight preference, perhaps, is manifested by the Purtslenne for Tan Felt 8port Chapeau for Winter Hat Double 8calloped Brim. the narrow brimmed or entirely brimless hat. The dinner hat, of course, continues large, with a gracefully formal sweep of the wide, soft brim. But most of the hats for daytime wear are small, the tendency being toward the trim and close-fitting beret, so chic this fall A new brim exploited for sport wear is the rippled type, which droops over the face In soft, regular undulations. Very few brims are plain, the majority being twisted in some novel and decorative manner or lilt up the middle to avoid the simplicity of last year's millinery mode. There are comparatively few medium models, but those are smart which turn up in back and down over the face in front An interesting brim is the turoed-up type, which assists the effect of the high crown by its erectness and the fact that it curves smartly upward toward the middle, Among the brimless hats, besides the wrapped turban, appears the tarn with a tight head size and full, draped bag; the toque, the beret and the skull cap, which alone defies the high crown and follows the shape of the head. The choice of colors for autumn hats is limited Only by the range of colors employed in fall dresses, since the ensemble theme is quite as significant as heretofore. Black, therefore, leads in hata, Inasmuch as it la first In frocks, Chanel and the burgundy reds, the darker shades of green and the new eggplant purple follow is popularity, While the grays and browns appear, as usual, in every shade from light to dark, depending only on the rest of milady's costume.

New Models Distinctive in Both Color and Line Callot always is very individual in taste, both with regard to tly> line and color schemes which she adopts. This year, however, the line of the dresses frequently corresponds with some of the tendencies decreed by fashion for the season. The chief points of similarity are to be found in the adoption of the straight skirt having only the one-sided fullness or else being widened by a loose panel placed in the center of the front. On the other hand, Callot firmly refuses to raise the waistline, to adopt the new blousing bodice or even to concede to the introduction of the bolero. For sport wear there are a number of raglan coats and capes made In woolen fabrics and trimmed with matching bands of leather. These garments are very simple In line, but extremely well executed and, therefore, very elegant. Smarter still are the leather coats trimmed with fur, often forming a border of half the width of the skirt, which are intended for sport wear. Below both these types of coats are worn frocks made In natural colored kasha and trimmed with a wide leather belt. Some of these have the skirts formed of panels, below which are worn a pair of matching shorts; the frocks, which are generally worn below the leather coats, have a narrow and straightfolded oversklrt. The afternoon frocks of crepe often have straight bodices and plisse or gathered skirts and are trimmed with embroidery or gold galloons. The coats worn over them are quite straight or else rendered original by a full length complicated cape effect obtained by the employment of a different color or fabric. The satin models are quite straight and trimmed and widened either by a panel placed on the side or else by a characteristic Callot drapery found in the center. A very smart frock made in brown crepe geogette and bordered with narrow bands of kolinsky had a similar effect on the tide cleverly obtained by the continuation of the straight skirt so as to make it form a point. The evening dresses are either prin* cease shaped slips entirely covered with a delicate emboldery or else chiffon frocks semi-robe de style in line having the skirts formed of outstanding flounces. Flowers and Fruits to Brighten the Costume Crystal flowers, fruits and berries, In clear and natural colorings, vesture forth this season to brighten up costumes of all kinds, from the simple •ports suit to the very fluffy evening frock. In fruit clusters they are most attractive when seen hanging from the lapel of suit or topcoat Then bunches of bright-colored berries are tucked in at the shoulder of an after* noon dress to lend just the right amount of chic The small bouquets, however, are used more indiscriminately, their selection being dependent on the color scheme. Other single flowers with foMage matching the bud or blossom successfully complete a bow of maline or tulle on an evening dress, or again give a parky air to* a smart ensemble.

Tn 1798 he published a book, "Essay on the Principles of Population as It Affects the Future Improvement of Society."

CURRENT EVENTS Jaffa Uncle Sam Mexico's Aid Rebels There. By EDWARD W. PICKARD MORE trouble with Mexico confronts the government of the United States, doe to the admitted fact that the "Liberal" revolutionists of Nicaragua are receiving aid, in the way of men and war munitions, from Mexico. Adolfo Diaz, favored by Washington for the presidency of Nicaragua, was elected by the congress immediately after the peace conference presided over by Charge d'Affaires Lawrence Dennis which resulted ,ln an agreement to return to constitutional government. Diaz was formally recognised by our government Wednesday, and at once he appealed to Washington (or aid In stopping the gunrunning expeditions from Mexico. In announcing the recognition of Diaz, Secretary of State Kellogg took occasion to refer in veiled but unmlstafcable terms to the Mexican govern - Ion of armed conflict American republic. " snfj" * said Secretary "bar been- Informed that President Diax intends to make overtures of peace and general amnesty to his political opponents, and that he will offer the Liberal party participation in the new government, Including certain cabinet posts. I sincerely hope that this offer, if made, will be accepted by the Liberals, since only by co-operation between all factions can peace and tranquility be restored to that country, now so unhappily torn by revolution, a condition which has invited Interference from outside saaaeea; a state of affairs which must cause concern to every friend of stability In Central America." General Moncada, rebel leader, was called on board the U. S. S. Rochester at Bluefields and given a dispatch from Washington, asking him to lay down his arms with the understanding that there would be a general amnesty. Otherwise, he was told, the United States would be obliged to take action to prevent farther fighting. The Calles regime in Mexico, which Is called Bolshevist by its opponents, has been extending Its Influence over Central America, at least In Guatemala, and is reaching out for Nicaragua. It would not be pleasant for the United States to have such a ••bloc* of nations controlled by the Calles group between It and the Panama canal. In addition to his war on the Yaqnis, which is going none too well for him, President Calles may have to meet a revolutionary movement in Chihuahua aad along the northern border. Though Mexican officials scoff at this, the rumors persist that it is under way and is serious. Gen. Nicholas Fernandez, former member of the staff of Gen. Pancho VUUu is reported to have led a small baad of rebels across the border east of El Paso for the purpose of recruiting a force of revolutionists. It was said-the party was well mountad and armed and had plenty of money. A former follower of Adolfo 6e la Huerta was in EI Paso recently recruiting men for a revolt. COL.

Sue believes Tunis should betesf to bar Instead of France, for there are same three million Italians there; bft wise observers do not believe Mussdtfnl has any intention of fighting France. There remains the territory in Asia Minor which Italy would like to possess and which now is held nominally by Turkey. If Mussolini obtains any of this, it is more likely to come through the aid of the League of Nations. There is ground for the belief that France would be glad to transfer her Syrian mandate to Italy Revelations following the arrest of Wcclotti Garibaldi in Paris have been rather startling and France might well find in them cause of serious quarrel with Mussolini's government, but in view of the duce's disclaimers and apologies for the acts of the more unrestrained Fascist! it is probable that France will take the view that these acts were unauthorised. On the other hand, London dispatches say the Italian volunteer officers in England have been officially notified that their services may be needed and to hold themselves ready to return to Italy at a moment's notice. EORGES TCHITCHERIN, soviet commissar of foreign affairs, and Tewflk Rushdi Bey, foreign minister of Turkey, held aa Important conference In Odessa, presumably to formulate an alliance. This led many European statesmen to believe that a league of western Asiatic nations, including Russia, comparable to the League of Nations, might be Intended. At a banquet following the conference Tchitcherin said the crushing force of "Imperialistic" nations had pressed Russia and Turkey into an International mutuality. WHILE the British Imperial conference in London is at this writing about over, there has been no official statement of its .conclusions. Unofficially, It Is asserted that the premiers of the dominions have refused to ratify the Locarno pact, which was drafted so as to exclude the dominions unless they expressed their participation; that the dominions have shown a decided disposition not to help maintain the naval forces of the empire and especially not to pay any part of the expense of building the huge naval base at Singapore, contracts for which are now being let; that the matter of privy council appeals will be left open for a future conference; and that there was complete agreement on the continuance of British control of Egypt Bmier Mussolini of Italy. 2—Ma;).

CONGRESSMAN DEMPSEY of Lockport, N. Y., chairman of the houBe harbors and rivers committee, offered to the Great Lakes Harbor association, in session in Buffalo, a solution of the lakes level problem in the form of passage of a bill in congress providing regulating works which would restore all the levels of the lakes, compensating not only the slight Chicago diversion but all other causes. The delegates, nearly all determined foes of Chicago In the controversy, immediately laid plans for the defeat of the bill mentioned by Mr. Dempsey. Of the nearly forty inches of lowering of levels, Chicago's diversion through the sanitary canal Is only 5½ Inches and can never be more, according to government engineers. I T TS believed at this time that the British miners have voted against the acceptance of the government's terms for settlement of the coal strike.

Return of men to the pita goes on steadily, which fact may Influence the final decision of the miners* federation.

JL/i KT me be permitted to say that I have no common cause with those who from platform and in pulpit, press and personal comment, are proclaiming the world is worse now than ever before, prophesying the overthrow of democracy (whatever that means), condemning the so-called failure of the church, lamenting the decay of good manners and weeping over the deterioration and degeneracy of mankind in general. No one can be blind to the evilb of the age. God knows they are many and their nature is vile. But he who records* them opens no new volume of history in the narrative of human action in any relation of life. It is simply a continuation of the old, old story of the conflict between evil and good which has been waged with varying odds since the world was young, and will know no truce until the overthrow of Satan is fully accomplished. . . . And the older the worl* grows the nearer it approaches this glorious consummation. True, in« crease of population has brought increase of evil upon earth but not cor* responding increase. Good is in the ascendency and the comparative ratio of increase is decidedly in its favor. Young Ministers Called On to Devote Their Entire Lives to the Church By BISHOP W. O. SHEPARB, Methodist Episcopal Church. If a man is without conscience the ministry is the easiest place to shirk duty. The minister is not watched like a laboring man, nor as men in other professions. Therefore, he must watch himself. The ministry is not a white collar job. It means hard work. Should a man who is a fisher of men work leas hours than a catcher of fish? No minister need expect an eight-hour day if he is to accomplish the task to which he is called. Committees from churches come to me asking for pastors. They seldom demand a big preacher, although preaching is an important part of the work of the ministry, but the question most often asked is, will the minister care for the people and will he give himself entirely to the church? They ask first of all a manly man. I know ministers who eat too much and some who have been rendered inefficient, or have died prematurely because of this self-indulgence. A man must keep his body fit. Concerning doctrinal questions, young men need not have "locked up, minds." But they must regard some things as settled. You don't have to read everything and you don't have to know everything. But there are some things that are unchangeable, like love for one's mother, wife and children. We have settled some things. The most important, is that Jesus Christ is the Redeemer of the world. Thij truth will probably be preached until the end of the world. Record Industrial Progress Looked for in the Next Twenty-five Years By CHARLES M. SCHWAB, Steel Corporation President The industrial development of the United States in the next twenty- five years will surpass anything in the nation's history. The record of the steel business in the United States is the basis for my prophecy. Forty-6ix years ago, when I started in the steel business, the country was using less than 1,000,000 tons of steel a year, and this year more than 50,000,000 tons will be made and used in nearly every line of endeavor. If I could be young again I would want to be young today, because I believe the business opportunities are greater than ever before. Business is always moving ahead, and the industrial development of the next twenty-five years will for that reason be greater than any wt ever have seen. This development will come from men like you, who are building up your own enterprises. The men from the workshops make up the true aristocracy of America. This industrial development will maka America the workshop of the world. Being "Only Child" Frequently Handicap to Success in Life's Struggle By WILLIAM PAUL CARTER, University of Chicago. The "only child" is often seriously handicapped through misguided home influences, lack of contact with other children and a generally spoiled disposition which later education and the rough edges of the world must correct. At home the only child is made to fed that he is most important, and he becomes conceited and ambitious. But his playmates do not accept the valuation of his parents and with typical ftM1fli»K frankness they make the fact evident. The reactions are varied, but harmful. Some are able to "remake" themselves lateT and become social creatures. Others never quite adjust themselves in the world of men. The only child is accustomed to get what he wants at home, because his wish is law, but he is placed in a disadvantageous position to attain his wishes when forced into the world, because he has not learned to "give and take.'1 His temperament is not right, he concludes, and he does not understand and fraternize readily with his fellow beings. Younger Generation at Least Honest in Their Appreciation of Jazz Music By DR. THOMAS H. BRIGGS, Columbia University. The first element of true appreciation is sincerity, which is often found in young people than in their elders. We are not honest in our likes ani-dislikes but allow ourselves to be influenced or prejudiced by public opinion. Our children art not that way. If their highest conception of music is jagg, they are frank in admitting it Bot their fathers and mothers, who condemn them for this taste, will go to an art museum and reserve their Judgment of paintings until they hare read the name of tlit artist.

London.—"The devil has come with me to London. The devil la very pleased to cone to London, for h« hopes to And plenty to do here." Ardent reformers, and religious propagandists have before now expressed the Idea that the devil Is a regular resident In London (and most other^big cities), but the one referred to above by thirteen-year-old Eleonore Zngun would seem to be a Rumanian devil, and, so far, London's morals do not seem to have suffered greatly from the Invasion. But this Rumanian devil Is greatly exercising students of physical research and a special committee of doctors and scientists will keep Eleonore under close observation for the next month or so, in order to study its manifestations, classify the phenomenon and, If possible, banish the devil to the underworld. For Eleonore, who Is an ignorant peasant girt, looking much younger than her thirteen years and having the mentality of a child of eight, has proved a puzzle to the scientists and psychic experts of Europe for over a year. The girl believes she is devilpossessed, and the "possession" takes two distinct forms—that of "poltergeist" (or noisy devils), in which articles fly about the room In which she happens to be and disappear and reappear In bewildering fashion, and that of "stigmatic" origin, in which great weals, bites, bruises and scratches appear on her skin without apparent cause. Studied by Scientists. It was Countess Zoe Wassllko- 8erecki, well-known psychic enthusiast, whot brought Eleonore to London after studying her In Rumania and In Vienna, and the scene of the proposed month's survey is the National Laboratory of Psychical Research, South Kensington. It should be said at once that the National Laboratory of Psychical Research is under the direction of Harry Price, an amateur conjuring expert, who is not at all likely to be deceived by any ordinary "magical" effects, for he knows how they are done. "I think I know most of the 'tricks of the trade,' " said Price, referring, of course, solely to the conjuring art, "but here at the National Laboratory «f Psychical Research we have no bias one way or the other. Our object Is to study these phenomena and discover, If povssible, their cause. We are not spiritualists, neither have we any prejudice against spiritualism. Like other scientists we want to find out the laws that govern these things. "As regards Eleonore Zugun, while she is here she will be kept under strict observation and we shall merely report what we see and learn. I have already kept the girl under observation for three days at Vienna, and t^e most extraordinary thin? which happened was this: A stiletto flew across the room and stuck Itself with a thud into the door. I was In the mom and Countess Wassillko- Sereckl and Eleonore were standing together trying to fit the two halves of a broken ball together. The stllettn came from a table on the other side of the room, hut although I searched the room thoroughly I could And no cause for the phenomenon." Since her arrival at the South Kensington laboratory, Eleonore has been freely visited by newspaper reporters, hut very little has happened. Display Adds to Phenomena. Some of the phenomena put down to Eleonore's "poltergeist" Influence. and vouched for by Countess Wassilko- Sereckl as having occurred in Vienna are: Needles stick themselves Into the girl's hands and face, and her neck and cheeks become smeared with the color from red and blue pencifcj without visible agency. A toneless breathy voV** gives a preliminary sftfu followed by a few words in the Romanian language. The girl has felt herself touched by a large cold hand, ami seems to have a premonition of these "visits." Lump sugar rrom uowhere falls upon her. All kinds of articles fly suddenly about the room, and Eleonore has never been detected la having any part ID their movement. Her necklace broke suddenly at two points one day. and the coral beads were scattered over the room. While the girl waa gathering these In one corner of the room, more beads fell In another corner. A skein of blue yarn disappeared through the lid of a work box, returned after ten minutes and taen. after another ten minutes, disappeared once more, baffling all attempts to And It Meanwhile Eleonore's most noticeable trait is her enormous appetite She eats three times as much as the ordinary girl of her age, or physique She thinks nothing of eating half a loaf of bread with a substantial breakfast. She, herself, puts down the phenomena to her "dracu" (or devil), as she calls him In Rumanian. She is a simple-minded child, whose main d*> light is—toys. Goiter to Disappear by 1937, It Promise Cleveland, Ohio.—iodine, the enemy of goiler, will serve to eradicate that disease and by 1937 it Is plausible that goiter will have totally disappeared, physicians attending the annual convention of the Interstate postgraduate medical asseirMy, were told. Feeding of iodine 10 school children in the form of salts was the method advanced for combating the disease. Dr. Henry S. Plummer, Rochester, Minn., recounted the discoveries In the Mayo laboratory at Rochester five years ago which boosted Iodine at once as the great goiter healer. Lack of Iodine In the tissues Is what causes the thyroid growths, lie said. POULTRY EKTS USING LIGHTS IN WINTER HOUSES * • < • Pay-Roll Raids Net Four Million <&- Twenty Persons Killed and Forty Wounded in Defending Cash. New York.—So far this year, payroll bandits in the United States took a total of $4,000,000, according to an estimate announced by the forgery prevention bureau. The number of pay-roll robberies reported for that period, it was estimated, would total more than 400, based on available newspaper reports of crimes of this kind, and It is believed these reports Include less than 75 per cent of the robberies actually committed^ The estimate of a year's total of pay-roll robberies was made by a manufacturing corporation in this state, that, in October, 1925, began to keep a record of pay-roll holdups reported in newspapers throughout the country. Although special efforts were made to obtain clippings on all crimes of this character, the corporation officers do not believe their records are more than 75 per cent complete. 205 Robberies In 8lx Months. For the first six months the number of pay-roll robberies reported In newspaper clippings totaled 205, and the amount of cash taken by the highwaymen in these holdups was $1,856,- 874. Twenty persons were killed and forty wounded In defending the money in their charge. Analysis of the reports showed that pay-roll holdups have been notably frequent, daring and heuvy in their toll of cash In New York city, California, St. Louis and East St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit and Newark, N. J. In j and insurance costs and Us value as the last named state the deaths In pay-roll holdups have amounted to at least a dozen, the operations of the bandits culminating in the desperate attack of October 14 on a mail truck in Elizabeth, in which the driver of the truck was killed, a police guard badly wounded, and $300,000 taken by the robbers. Of this amount $160,000 was cash for pay-roll purposes, prompting Postmaster General Harry S. New to appeal to large business houses to pay employees by check Instead of cash, to eliminate the huge shipments of currency which offer the principal bait to mall robbers. Steer Clear of Cash In Transit. Further analysis of the reports showed that 51 per cent of the robberies were committed after the cash was delivered to employers for pay-roll purposes, while 49 per cent were committed on the streets, while the cash was in transit. The deduction made from this was that the armored car and heavily armed guards have caused a drift from the open attack on pay-roll cash In the streets in favor of the nttack In the office after the cash has been delivered. Postmaster General New's appeal for pay-roll payments by check has been anticipated by many of the greatest corporation In the country, that long iijjo adopted the system. The American Management association recently investigated the operations of the system and reported that, aside fmin Its unquestioned advantage of protecting both the cash and its guardlans, other prime considerations in its favor were the numerous economies effected in office administration It Is wise to be thinking about the lighting of the poultry house for the winter. There is no longer any question that for the short days, many of which are cloudy, the egg production can be very definitely increased by supplying artificial light to the laying flock. This has been tried out at many experiment stations and by thousands of practical poultrymen. The idea is perfectly simple. The ben eats only when It is light, if the days are short she eats only a short time. She eats all her crop will hold, but when she stays on the roost from early afternoon, all night and until late in the morning in the winter, she has not been able to eat enough food to last her the whole time. Therefore, she is Idle for several hours when she could Just as well be eating more food and manufacturing more eggs. The method of using the lights Is to turn them on for 20 minutes to half an hour in the evening perhaps about nine o'clock, or near bedtime. The hens soon learn what It means when the lights go on, and they hop ofT the roost immediately and begin to eat scratch feed. As soon as they get their crops full they start back onto the roosts and in half an hour they are all back and the lights can go out and the day has been made Just that much longer for them. In the case of acetylene lights, which have often been used, some arrangement of a pilot light is necessary which turns on the bright lights when wanted. In the case of electric lights these can be turned on by hand from the house or from the door of the poultry house or in some cases they are operated by clockwork, being turned on at a certain time and automatically turned off after a certain time.

Meat Packers Meet in Chicago Fattening Ration Urged for All Market Fowli The common practice of hastily catching up a lot of cockerels, cul) hens or turkeys, ducks or geese, without first making some assurance that they are in proper market condition, is sure to bring dlssasisfaction to the producer, dealer and consumer alike. Cockerels confined closely and fed i wet mash of the consistency of pancake batter for from ten days to two weeks should gain from 20 to 35 per cent In weight and at the same time they are a better market product, plumper bodied, with softer and more tender flesh, and they make a more pleasing appearance, hence command a higher price. Equal quantities (measure) oi wheat, oats and com, or wheat, oats and barley ground tine and wet with either buttermilk or sour milk maks a good fattening ration. Use two pounds of milk to one pound of ground feed.

Next, I wrap up a book that belongs to a friend (she has probably forgotten that I have it) and address It for the parcel post That has been on my mind for some time. And so it goes. In the rush of the ordinary busy day there doesn't seem time to stop and do even one of these things that do not absolutely have to be done. Things that can wait generally haie to, I find. But on my catching-up day I clean up all these bauntlng tasks which I remember in the middle of the night and go quietly from one to another all the day through.

Most of us are continually receiving, from friends over the telephone or d u r i n g afternoon visits, choice new concoctions to add to our list of good things for parties or fur the family meals. Spinet Imes we scratch them down upon n pad, occasionally they come to us written out on note paper, and now and then we cut out a newspaper clipping describing some new dish. We ennnot always stop to copy these roripps onto the loose cards In our kitchen tile, so we tuck them into the empty space at the back of the box or slip them In between the covers of a cook book, and let them accumulate. It Is the work of an hour or two, I And, to get these odd items copied and entered under the proper guide card in the indexed file. In my card file of goodies I find that special headings help make it easier to find recipes quickly. Of course, we all have the usual guide cards for "Meats," "Vegetables," "Salads," "Desserts," and so on, but sometimes one wants to look up menus for special occasions. Under the heading "Sunday Night Suppers" may be gathered recipes for entrees ef all sorts, cheese dishes, souffles And special salads. (These are duphV cates, of course, of the recipes filed onder the regular headings.) The beading "Club Meetings and Teas" may embrace quantity recipes—punch for 60, sandwiches for three tables of bridge, chicken salad for two dosen, Under "Special Occasions" as a general beading, there may be color schemes and eatables for Valentine's day, Halloween, Washington^ birthday, Fourth of July, Easter, and so on. 'Things to Do With Sour Milk or Cream" corers all sorts of rectpea for this special contingency. Another beading Includes "Favorite Dishes" of si! the family and of friends.

WEDDIGE RED GRANGE . BALKS AT SCENE IN PICTURE Director Sam Wood ia authority for the statement that Red Grange whom he directed in his first starring picture "One Minute to Play" by Byron l Morgan only balked once during the entire filming of the picture. It seems one sequence calls for Red to simulate drunkenness, as an excuse for his not getting into the football game and to keep from being called a coward by his team mates and the college in general none of whom knew the circumstances. Red drew the line on the drunk thing, real or assumed or excusable. It took the combined urging of Wood, Byron Morgan and even Edwin C. King, general manager of production, to convince Grange that he had a logical reason for the feigned intoxication and that it would call forth no personal criticism. He was finally won over but he admits it was the only unhappy time he had during the entire picture. NEIGHBORHOOD..

PINCKNEY 46, BYRON 6 In a game played on a field.covered by two inches of snow and with the thermontteter hovering around .the freezing point Pinckney defeated Byron by a score of 46 to 6 but iri doing so had their goal line-grossed for the first time since the Fowlerville game on October 6. In view of the game scheduled with Chelsea for last Saturday which was later postponed and the fact that there were Chelsea scouts watching the game the Pinckney team had orders not to exterftl themselves. Consequently Byron which has a light team and reliea mostly on the- forward pass was able to carry the ball to the thirty yard line by mi injppnf forward passes and end runs. Here they tried a Idfcg forward pass. Harold Reason leaped high in the air^^nd struck the ball, knocking it o ^ p f the hands of the intended Byron receiver but in so doing deflected tein&qflfcSjhanu:; of another Byron player who ran the reremaing ten yards for a touchdown unmolested. They failed to make the extra point. Then the Pinckney team came to life and with Swarthout and Harold Reason circling end and Nash and Weddige hitting thfc line made a touchdown and extra point and led at the end of the first quarter 7 to (u In the second quarter Swarthout pot three more touchdowns entirely by straight football not a single forward pass or trick formation being us-d. Pfepre second quarter, Pinckney 2G, flffron 6. At the start of the third '*" arter, Swarthout, H. Reason,. Henee and M. Nash were taken out of the game and replaced by Kennedy, Hornshaw, C. Miller and Ahren. This move caused the departure of the Chelsea scouts for whom the game had lost its interest. Pinckney added another touchdown in the third quarter with Weddige carrying the bal] most of the time. In the last period the first string men were put back in again and and Swarthout secured two more touchdowns.

The cacophony of sound reminds one of the conventions of the animals in the children's fable. They have gathered to inspect the newcomers and to prognosticate their future. Some with knowledge And kindly spirit, hold up high hopes and give words of cheer. The owls that cannot see. in the light speak words of hollow wisdom. The ravena eroak and leave one with a hollow feeling at the'.stomach. The lions and the tigers and other beasts of prey advise that the only thing to do is to go out and get what you can, tear it to yourself wherever it is and make it your own. A certain other class of the animals, more vocal than musical, shak*> their long ears and try to outvie the owls in the wisdom of their advice. A good deal of the ridicule, the jeering, the caustic comment comes from people who have not altogether made the most of their own opportunities. They have an unholy glee in sitting on the fence and watching the recruits for life's battle march to their duty and jeering at them as incompetent, overconfident, or doomed to failure like themselves. So we have the would-be witty cartoonist, the newspaper and the magazine writer, to say nothing of the ministers, college professors and presidents, ready to tell you all about it. Some write books depicting occasional alleged evils in college life as characteristic, to be sold for a dollar or two—the Judas price of disloyalty to institutions, society and truth. But why worry about these writers? Some do not deserve notice. Of those that do, most deserve only a laugh. Courses in Road Study in Public School? Would Spread Useful Knowledge By H. G. SHIRLEY, President Road Builders' Association. The public schools should adopt regular periods throughout the year for the study of the economics of the nation's highways, as well as the i>enefits derived from the construction of good roads. The American Road Builders' association has set aside the week of January 10 to 14, 1927, as National Good Roads week. At that time all schools of the United States will be invited to take part in reviewing the progress in road construction, and in studying the traffic conditions in general, as well as the benefits derived from good roads. The week will be climaxed among these schools by the announcement of the winners of a national essay contest conducted by this association, the contents of which will summarize the knowledge of good roads accumulated during the first half of the winter. Schools owe a great debt to the highway. The consolidated system in many states has resulted from the good roads movement. In Mississippi more than 72,000 children are taken to their studies each day over the highway. North Carolina transports 65,000 children to school each day, and Indiana, 47,000. These children are enabled to attend better,schools, taught by better teachers, and from distances heretofore prohibitive. Desire for Easy Life Weakening th£ Moral Fiber of the Present Generation By JUSTICE MARVIN B. ROSENBERRY, Wisconsin Supreme Court. Lessening of the struggle for existence has brought about frivolity |nd a lessening of the sense of responsibility for the general welfare. Religion k one way of combating the tendency. There has been a change in the motivation of society within recent years. Human hopes cluster around certain fundamental things: First, •elf-preservation; second, the establishment of a home, the begetting and rearing of children, their education and establishment in life and all that appertains to i t ; third, the hope of immortality. While cynics may sneer, it nevertheless remains true that the desire Of man BO to live and conduct himself that he may enjoy a happier life fcgreafter has been one of the great motivating factors in the life of our ftce. The fourth incentive is the desire of every normal man to have the satisfaction which comes from a full and complete exercise-of his natural capacities in the accomplishment of some desirable end. Possibility That Women Will Rule Business Within the Next Twenty Years By SIR CHARLES HIGHAM, London, England. Tn twenty years women will dominate all branches of the business World if men do not pull themselves together. In my own business I am placing women in positions formerly occupied by men. Eighty per cent Of my employees are women. I believe in an equal wage for women and Ihen. Today women in business are more energetic, more thorough and take a keener interest in their work. The managing director employs women secretaries because he is anxious to be relieved. They realize his responsibilities and help him. They work for him alone. Men often swank outside the office and to show their importance mention facts they should not. Women never do. The qualities fitting women for business are superior loyalty, neatness and cheering ability to work, together with a desire to study their task and advance.

Perhaps the most striking detail of the Pucharne fall fabric collection is the wonderful quullty of the chiffon velvets, which might piass through o wedd:j!^' riup with the greutest ease. Some of these, nores u Paris faBhloO writer in tin* Louisville Courier-Journal, are made in a small check that Is destined to be Immensely l>opulur during tli? whiter. Another novelty that arouses mucH admirutjon IK a chiffon with a wide velvet border. Sometimes the velvet 1» plain aud sometimes embossed. Velvet embossed on voile ID a small flower design Is yet another favorite. This embossed velvet is even made for lingerie and negligees in the palest colors, such as pink, clel blue aud yellow. Quite remarkable is a lame crepe that Is printed with a flower design after It has been woven with gold. Another beautiful novelty is lame crepe de chine with scattered flowers and butterflies In gold and silver on lovely pastel colors. There is a satin broche, metal flecked, with tiny stars of silver and gold. A whole series of lames and extraordinarily supple velvets are made in small flower designs that are adaptable to afternoon or evening gowns. Then there is a series just the opposite, with large scattered designs that are repeated each yard la a wide panel. One of the most beautiful of these Is a pattern of butterflies and bullruahaa on s ground of pale crepe de Modish Coats Feature Huge Novelty Cuffi Aid far Spawning FUhea Because Che building of huge waterpower dams in the streams on tbe Pacific coast has brought a serious problem to the production of salmon and trout, elevators are being constructed to carry the fish to the quiet headwaters of the streams to spawn.

A new crepe hlndou that resembles crepe romain is patterned with great golden roses scattered over it Two-color effects are introduced In a crepe that is also bordered with lame design. A metal gauze that is almost ancrushable, so fine and supple Is Its texture, Is called mousse d'or, for It has the consistency of foam. Panne printed with bright colored flowers is an attractive novelty of great richness. It is also made in gray on a bright-colored ground. A marvel of textile art is the crepe that is woven with the metal design In relief and some of it with a half-veiled effect. Nearly every color is seen. Vert serpent is lovely, and no are figure and cendre de roses. The new paste! tints are warmer than those worn during the summer, and there is no hint of gray In them. Fancy Shoulder Pins Important Accessory Fancy shoulder plus are becoming an Increasingly necessary article of Jewelry, either to hold a bow in place, a small bouquet or single flower, or Just to interrupt an otherwise plain line. Naturally there must be variety In any selection of such pins, the favored type at present being the fob style, somewhat resembling a badge or medallion. A studded cross bar, either of rhinestones or in a combination of other stones, forms the main part and from it hangs either'a lattice of metal studded with stones or single st'unds of metal. Some of these strands are flexible, others rigid, making possible a wide choice of selection. The gem combinations consist mostly of rhinestones combined with either sapphires, onyx, emeralds, topazes or amethysts. With the featuring of huge novelty cuffs on the newer coats, enters an element of romance. Does not the very mention of pirate or troubadour cuffs, for so are these deep flaring cuffs called, suggest "days of old, when knights were bold?" Certainly, according to this picture, these big and wide and graceful cuffs lend a picturesque note to the coat of cloth. This model Is made of an exquisitely fine beige woolen. The stitched strappings of self-colored velvet attest to the popularity of velvet as a trimming for cloth. The tie-collar is also an outstanding style touch. Wonderful Display of Hats for Fall Brides This season the bride has a wonderful selection of delicate shades to choose from for her wedding hat, which can be felt, satin or faille silk. The colors come under such fascinating classifications as powder puff and fairy-tale shades. In the latter a blue much like periwinkle is called Blue Beard blue; the Peter Pan green Is a shade between apple and deep river green ; Cinderella gray is a little darker than the opal gray, which has been shown so much; mother goose is a soft shade of tan with a glint of gold in it; sleeping beauty fo)#k Is A|*o a soft, pretty shade; Aladdin's lamp runs into the wood shades, which have been shown for some time; briar rose is In the raspberry shading. In the powder-puff shades the colors run a little stronger. The steeplechase and Jockey-club blue remind one of the familiar royal blue. In the greens there are jungle, wlntergreen, paradise; also Eve, Eden and Locarno. The midnight sun, sun god and totem are in the burnt orange shadings. In the browns we have sweetmeat, toast, tiffin and stroller's tan. If the bride wishes to choose any of the colors named the bridesmaids wear tones a little darker. Felt hats are preferred for the occasion. A slight mushroom in front, the back a brim turning up tight to the crown. The crowns are tacked and dented in on all sides. Any style that suits the bride's face is the correct style. In most of the smart shops hats are being fitted to the customer's head. A nice thing about selecting a felt bat for the wedding hat is It con be worn that day and then used also on the wedding trip. Little trimming Is needed—a narrow ribbon around the bottom of the crown with a smart tailored bow on the right side and a single initial pin complete the typical hat Cutlcura 8oothes Baby Rashes That itch and burn, by hot baths of Cutlcura Soap followed by gentle anointings of Cutlcura Ointment.

Naturally the silhouette continues short, the skirt portion merely covering the hem of the frock beneath, except In the case of the sports coats which are many inches shorter. Collars are in general full and generous. while the sleeves are as varied in the different collections as the sleeves of the gowns they will cover. Most of the Paris sports coats seen at the football games are slightly shorter than the dresses with which they are worn, and have large, high pockets, producing a subdued swagger effect.

Story Martha Martin FAIRY QUEEN'S BALL n ' - p HE Fairy Queen is going to give A u ball tomorrow evening," suld the Breeze Brothers, "and she wants you to come. It is to be a fancy dress ball, and costumes are to be flower costumes. "Everyone must look like a flower." These were the messages the freeze Brothers took around with them, and everyone sent back word to the "airy Queen that the invitation was accepted with much pleasure. The next evening everyone came and in the sky Mr. Moon wore his Then, They All Danced I Dance as It Was. crescent-shape suit, which was one of his very best he considered. He said he couldu't dress like a flower very well as he had no flower costumes but he would do the best he could at the time. And everyone admired Mr. Moon for the Fairy Queen was very fond of Mr. Moon's crescent shape. The Fairies were all dressed like little Bluets or Eyebrlghts. They wore costumes of blue, with four blue petals coming out from these costumes, while the center part was of white. Old Mr. Giant came dressed in a costume 10 make him look like the Indiun or Wild Tobacco Flower. Witty Witch came dressed In the costume of the Cardinal Flower, and the bright scarlet of her costume was much admired. The Elves wore costumes so that they looked like Black-Eyed Susans or Yellow Daisies. And they wore breeches which were very coarse and rough to show that Black-Eyed Susans had very coarse stems. The Gnomes wore costumes so that they looked like Violets. Some looked like Yellow Violets and some like Long-Stemmed Purple ones. Others looked like White Violets and some were like little Purple Violets almost hidden under their leaves. Then they al! danced ! Such a dance as it was. And so lovely a sight as it wag to see all the Fairyland people dressed In their beautiful flower costumes. They had a delicious woodland supper with Moss Le*,J>eam which the Fairy Queen had made herself. And then, after supper was over and Mr. Moon had laughingly refused to eat anything saying that if he did he feared that he would have Moon Indigestion, the Fairy Queen sang a song she had made up especially for the occasion. But there was a lot of Joking about Mr. Moon and his indigestion first. He was asked what Moon indigestion was, and he said that it was Indigestion people had when they couldn't think of what they had eaten to give them indigestion and then saw the Moon and said the Moon must have given it to them. He said he had never heard anyone say that, but he had to think of an answer so quickly to the Fairyland people that that was the best he could do upon such short notice! But he said he was sure that if he ate he would have Indigestion and then they'd have to send a hot water bottle up to the sky and a warm blanket to cover over him, and he would hate to have to put them to all that trouble. So he refused their kind offer of food.

Finally, though, one dark night a colored man from the country, driving home from town, steered his mules across the track Just as the Memphis flyer came through and aholished him. along with his team and his wagon. His widow sued the railroad for damages. At the trial the chief witness for tbe defense was the old crossing watchman. Dressed in bis Sunday best Uncle Oabe stumped to the stand, took the oath to tell the truth, tbe whole truth, and nothing but the truth. And then, under promptings from the attorney for his side, he proceeded to give testimony strongly in favor of the defendant corporation. He stated that he had seen the approaching team in due time, standing in the street, he had waved his lantern to and fro for a period of at least one minute In spite of the warning, he said, the deceased had driven upon the rails just as the train whizzed across the street Naturally, the attorney for the plaintiff put him to a severe cross-examination. Uncle Oabe answered every question readily and with evident honesty. He told Just how he bad held the lantern, how he swung and Joggled It and so forth and so on. to convinced was the Jury by his air of sincerity that instead of giving a Judgment for the full amount of damages asked, they awarded tbe widow only a few hundred dollars—a much •mailer sum than the railroad had figured It must pay. After court bad adjourned the lawyer for the railroad sought ont the old man and congratulated him upon hit behavior as a witness, ."Gabe,", be said, "yon acquitted yourself splendidly. Weren't yon at all nervous while on the stand r "X surtinly was, boss," replied Uncle Oabe. "I kep* wonderln' whut wnz gwlne happen ef dat wire geoelman should ax me if dat lantern was lighted."

MEETING A PIG IT IS bad luck to meet a pig while on a journey; and if, on going visiting, you meet a pig on the way tt Is a sign that you will not be welcome when you arrive at your destination. These are superstitions—or rather a variation of the same superstition— found to be rather common in Canada and New England and perhaps existing in other localities. Also some fishermen object to meeting a pig when about to embark for the fishing grounds, and some old-fashioned sailors regard the hog askance, if they meet one just before sailing. This Idea that it is bad luck to encounter a bog at the beginning of any enterprise is a mild form of a similar superstition found among the northern nations of Europe, especially among the Scottish fishermen, among whom an Intense horror of even the animal's name prevails. That the hog was connected with moon-worship we know and one writer says In regard to the superstition under consideration, "All animals connected in folklore with the moon are diabolical, a relic of the antipathy of sun-worshipers to moon-worshipers." This antipathy can only have existed, however, among the Northern nations. The most civilized peoples of antiquity, we know, worshiped both the sun-god and the moon-goddess; conceiving a union instead of an antipathy between them. But among the Northern nations sun-worship was prominent; the traces of moon-worship comparatively few. The dwellers on the misty capes of Scotland anrt Norway had not the same reason to worship the "source of moisture" as the Egyptians had and moon-worship, therefore, may have been considered highly heterodox. As the superstition in question is a Northern one, perhaps the explanation cited is correct ( • fey Modors N*wspap*r Syadleat*.) O tions. But It Is a circumstance that started the practice of using these tales to make a point, aa a vehicle for satire or moral teaching, that we owe what has become an Institution on the bookshelf of every child, our collection of "Aesop's Fables." Though we call them "Aesop's Fables," the little stories known by that name have come down to us from the lips of many story tellers of ancient times and the bards of the Middle Ages. Their common character, however, of showing the rewards of virtue and the penalties of selfishness and other vices, had its origin wfth the ancient Greeks after whom they are named. During the epoch of the Tyrants in Greece free speech was dangeVous, and political criticism unwise. It was then that one Aesop, an educated slave of Samoa, conceived the idea of putting over attacks on the government veiled in fables. The practice was taken up all over Greece and thereafter It was his name that was given ^ to all fables)—animal tales whose object was satire or moral teaching. When free speech was established In the Greek democracy the custom of using fables to prove a point and to teach was continued. Then, or about the year 800 B. C, DemetrLus Phalereus, founder of the Alexandria library, collected all the fables be could find and gave them the title of "Assembles of Aesoplc Tales." These and the similar tales which have coma down from ancient India, where the fable was also used for moral teaching, form the bulk of what we know today as "Aesop's Fables." (Copyrig-at.)

AT 21—Florenz ZiegfeJd's Great Ambition Was to Become a Concert Plan* 1st K A T THE age of tventy-onp I was x \ manager of the Chicago Musi. cal institute, founded by my father In 1867, where all branches of musical art were tanght "My ambition then was to become a great pianist, but soon this desire gave way to something very different. Twenty-three found me studying at college and tbe greatest ambition of my life had changed from pianist to doctor. After that, the life work that I dreamed of was medicine.—Floren* Ziegfeld." TODAY—Ziegfeld may be called a student of anatomy, but not in connection with medicine. He has s deserved reputation for being the best Judge of feminine beauty In America, and In the possession of this power has made his "Follies" a reigning institution in this country. Ziegfeld was the first to give America the form of entertainment known as the "revue." and which la so popular and so standard now. He started the Follies 17 years ago and with each new anonal edition it has received more acclaim and become tbe leader in its field despite the fact that so many entertainments of this kind are produced every season. In Ziegfeld's case has been proven once more that the originators of any popular product remain first choice with the buyers. The Follies was not Zlegfeld's first theatrical enterprise. It was he who exhibited 8andow, tbe famous strong man, to Americans and reaped a fortune from this enterprise both for his charge and himself. (6 by sfoCltsrs N*Ow tp*p*r SyBdtcata.)

NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Coolidge Address in Kansas City Chief Event of Armistice Day. By EDWARD W. P1CKARD FACING the east and standing In silence, all America paid tribute at 11 o'clock on Armistice day, to the memory of our World war dead—the 77,000 young men who gave up their lives In France or in the camps In this country. .Eleven thousand posts of the American Legion participated In fitting ceremonies, and the American people generally joined in the solemn observation of the occasion. The remainder of the day was marked by celebrations patriotic and joyful. Chief feature of the Armistice day doings was the dedication of the stately Liberty ^Memorial in Kansas C i t y - chief because the speaker of the day there was President Coolidge. Five years before he was there, as vice president, to lay the cornerstone. Last week he returned, accompanied by Mrs. Coolidge, Everett Sanders, his secretary, and Secretary of War Dwight F, Davis, who, as the Missouri member of the cabinet, did the honor* for his state at the- exercises. Tilt train arrived in Kansas City Thursday morning and after the dedication of the memorial the President and his party left in the afternoon for the return trip to VTashlngton. In the course of his address the President took occasion to discuss the natter of American entry into the World court, and he served notice on the other nations that he would not ask the senate to modify Its reservations. To those who pretend to deqplse Americans as a nation of dollar chasers, newly rich and without re finement, he retorted that, even if this were true, there would be "more hope for the progress of true ideals in the modern world even from a nation newly rich than there is from a nation of chronically poor. Honest poverty is one thing, but lack of Industry and character is quite another." Mr. Coolidge asserted that as a nation we not only did not profit from the war, but we suffered immense losses. He spoke for adequate preparedness for the sake of protection without entering Into competition with others In the maintenance of armed forces; and he reiterated his belief that wealth and all other material resources should be conscripted In time of war. Q UEEN MARIE of Rumania spent the week-end in Chicago, where she w; \ fittingly entertained by both the city officials and society, and where there was the usual American exhibition of social pushing and of that Inverted snobbery that advertises Its disrespect for royalty and all that pertains to i t On th.? way east from the Pacific coast the squabbles among those who accompanied the queen continued, with the result that Lole Fuller, Samuel Hill and some others quit the party, leaving CoL J. H. Carroll. manager of the tour, and Maj. Stanley Washburn, the queen's personal aide, seemingly in supreme control. Marie took no sides In the controversies but insisted that there must be peace and harmony on the rest of the tour. It announced that while the queen resting in Washington for four days after the conclusion of the trip, Prince Nicolas and Princess Heana would travel back to Chicago on a •pedal train to witness the Army- Jfavy football game on November 27. N' OT the least interesting news of tht.VMk was the announcement that Princeton university had severed atfelatte relations with Harvard, thus lasjaVin « 9 tha "Big Three" cotnhl- •jattoa that baa existed, with some intarrnptiona, for many years.

Hut the real reason for Princeton's action was the announcement of Harvard's proposed new policy in football matters, under which Harvard would have orjly one fixed game on its schedule each year—the contest with Yale. It would play Princeton some years, but not others, and Princeton resented this casual treatment. E'rincetonians have the satisfaction of having licked Harvard in the last game. Outside of Harvard men, Princeton will have the backing of the country generally in the controversy. SUPPLEMENTING a s t a t e m e n t from the White House, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon made an official announcement of the administration's plan for income tax reductions, showing it Is not proposed to compute the flat percentage cut oh 1926 tax payments on last year's Incomes. As made known by Mr. Mellon, the program is to propose legislation authorizing a flat reduction amounting to probably 12¼ per cent on individual and corporation income taxes to be reported in March, 1927, on 1926 earn- ;ngs. The taxpayer will compute his tax at the rates provided by the present law. He then will be permitted to reduce his actual payment by the percentage agreed upon. If he pays his entire tax at the time of filing the return, he will deduct 12½ per cent from the total. If he pays in four Installments, he will deduct 25 per cent from his March payment and also 25 per cent from his June rpyroent. His September and December payments will 'not be subject to any cut. The proposed 12½ per cent cut, it was estimated by Secretary Mellon, would mean a loss of approximately $250,000,000, all of which would be drawn from the prospective surplus of the fiscal year 1927, which ends en July 1, next VINCENT MASSEI has been appointed Canada's first minister to Washington by an order in council passed by the dominion cabinet. Mr, Massey Is in England with Premier .MacKenzie King attending the Imperial conference. The question now naturally arises whether the United States shall appoint a minister to Ottawa. Some of the leading Canadian newspapers think no other course is open for Washington, and it Is favored by some journals in states along the border. It may be the matter will be solved by the enlarging^of the powers of the United States consul general In Ottawa. ONCE more the United States protests to Mexico against the oil and land laws of that country. The latest In a long succession of notes on this subject was handed to the Mexican foreign office by Charge d'Affaires Schoenfeld, and again was stressed the necessity for fundamental modifications In these two laws to eliminate from them all possibility of their retroactive application Ln violation of agreements entered into between the two governments In 1023.

Doheny, oil magnate, appeared before the District of Columbia Supreme court and pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to defraud the government in the naval oil reserve leases, The , trial was set for November 22 and counsel for the defendants said they will be ready to proceed with the case at that time.

The ousted members lost their parliamentary Immunity and some of them were arrested, but most of them had taken the precaution of leaving Rome. The chamber also passed the law providing the death penalty for attempts on the life of Mussolini or the royal family. The duce took to himself another cabinet job—that of the minister of the interior—and issued orders for a systematic application of all laws for the protection of the regime and the preservation of public order. The premier has apologized amply to France for the attacks on French consulates, and it seems likely he also will be able to calm the indignation of the French brought on by the operations of Ricciotti Garibaldi as a Fascist agent In France. The Paris police are still trying to find out Just what was Garibaldi's connection with the Catalan uprising which was nipped by the Perplgnan arrests. GREECE held its elections last week and the Republicans were victorious, winning about 65 per cent of the votes and 160 of the 280 seats In parliament. Premier Condylis and his government resigned and President Condouriotis called on Kaiandarig to form a new cabinet. It was hoped that former Premier Venizelos would return and accept the ministry of foreign affairs. WITH the simple declaration that light travels at the rate of 299,- 796 kilometers per second, made before the National Academy of Science In Philadelphia, Dr. Albert A. Michelson of the University of Chicago announced the practical completion of the research that has occupied most of his time for forty years. The old rate of light travel, as used In close scientific research and given in all the textbooks, had been established at 299,860 kilometers per second, or 64 kilometers more than that determined by Doctor Mlchelson. Astronomers and physicists will now have to overhaul and reshape their calculations. The Chicago scientist's latest results were worked out In California by flashing a beam of light from Mount Wilson to Mount San Antonio and back again, a distance of 44 miles. This work was carried on all summer. HU N D R E D S of natives were drowned and great property damage was done by a typhoon that swept over a section of the Island of Luzon in the Philippines. Many villages were wiped out and the inhabitants blown Into the sea to perish. It was estimated that the storm destroyed 5 per cent of the world's coconut crop. The town of La Plata, Md., was struck by a tornado that wrecked a schoolhouse and some houses and killed about a score of persona, four* teen of whom were school children. AMONG the deaths recorded during the week was that of James K. Hackett, one of America's best actors, in Paris. He had spent much of bis time of late In France and was exceedingly popular In that country. C. G. Sholes, who as a youth was Sherman's personal telegraph operator on the march to the sea, passed away In Chicago. Rev. D. D.

Thanksgiving day Is older than the authentic records of history. For victory won, calamity survived, for good hunting, man was assuredly giving thanks long before he knew how to classify himself In the world in which he lived. If the latest deductions of the scientists are right, man was contemporaneous with some of the great beasts, reptiles and birds which it was once thought had the earth to themselves. There must have been some rare outbursts of joy in that long ago when ouar ancestors occasionally got the best of an Ichthyosaurus, put a dinosaur out of business, knocked out; a dlnotheriura, or killed a mammoth. These were Impromptu thanksgivings, however, and usually of a strictly private nature. It wasn't safe In those days to make too much noise about such a victory; the response might come In the guise of a new attack by a monster of land or air, or from humans whose desire to kill might be based on jealousy, greed or mere lust for conquest. It Is more than llkly that the victorious Individual or family told the story of his or their prowess to a select few In the recesses of their caves, when the entrances thereto had been made secure for the night, First Formal Thanksgiving. Newfoundland was the scene of the first recorded formal Thanksgiving service held on the continent That was in 1557, and it was conducted by a clergyman who accompanied the expedition which under Sir Martin Frobisher, a noted navigator and explorer, had brought the first English Immigrants to settle In North America. That must have been a strange and picturesque ceremony. Of Itself the Atlantic sea voyage In that age was an adventure few but the most adventurous undertook without fear. To the perils of the sea to what then served for ships, had to be added the dangers from ships of other nations. and from the freebooters who knew neither flag nor race when they had a chance to loot and slay,. Froblsher and his rough sallormen, DO doubt, took part In the service, though they would not be so Impressed as were the settlers at being on land^again even though that land w%» strange, and their hearts full of f<»*n and anxieties. It Is a far cry from that observance In the ancient colony to the Thanksgiving of the present generation. To the youth the day is synonymous with holiday attractions, roast turkey, and other appetizing delicacies. To their elders there Is Interwoven In the Joys of family reunions and social Intercourse and thanksgiving for the harvests, tender thoughts and sincere trlhutes to the men whose valor and endurance in the World war gave our country a new status In world leadership. Pilgrims' Celebration. There have been some changes in time snd methods of observing the day on this continent, since Frrlhlsher's time, though the basic principle has remained. The Pilgrim Fathers gave to it a coloring that has not faded out entirely through succeeding centuries. At the "Ingathering" of their first harvest In 1621, the people who harl come from the old one to establish a New England, held a service and celebration. Governor Brad ford sent out four men to shoot wild fowl, and they bagged enough, mostly turkey according to the chroniclers, to satisfy all the company for about a week. Edward WInslow, one of the Mayflower's company, thus wrote of the celebration to an English friend: "Our harvest being gotten In our governor sent four men on fowling, that so we might, after a special manner, rejoice together after we had gathered the fruit of our labors. Provided for Feast. "They four In one day killed as many, fowl as, with a little help beside, served the company almost a week, at which time, amongst other recreations, we exercised our arms, many of the Indians coming amongst us, and among the rest their greatest king, Massasot. with some ninety men, whom for three days we entertained and feasted; and they went out and killed five dear, which (hey brought to the plantation, and hestowed on our governor, and on the captain and the others. "And although It is not always so plentiful SB it was at this time with us, yet by the goodness of God, we are so far from want, that we wish yoa partakers of our plenty." Miles Standish Is said to have been the captain of those who "exercised" their arms and the armed men under him are reputed to have numbered a few more than twenty on this occasion. Trials of endurance, races on land and water, and exhibitions of skill were part of the celebration from day to day. P-sHmss, Feast Not Complete Without the Pumpkin To the ringing chorus of praise to corn and wheat, to dairy cow and beef steer, to fattening porker and fleeca* hned sheep, we desire here and now to add our piping voice in a word of praise to the punkln. Not pumpkin —punkln. Nestling In yellow, globular beauty amidst the corn rows, the glorious pie punkln gives promise of gustatory delights In the Immediate future. Gazing upon the punkln's golden rotundity one may almost catch the incense of spice and cinnamon, and taste the richness that is soon to be. Flecking the brown and sere fields with specks of gold, even as the auriferous metal flecks the quarts wrested from Mother Earth by the pick of the miner, tfce pie punkln adds to human comfort while contributing to human delight Of humble station, with few to sing Its praises. It has been the standby of succeeding generations. Demanding little, tt gives much. Without It Thanksgiving would be a hollow mockery. It graces alike the table of the rich and aristocratic, and the table of the toller in humble place. It has all season for Its own, for it may be dried In festoons from the rafters of the humble cottage, or canned for storage In the cellars of the well-to-do.—Omaha Bee.

University of Illinois, that chickens may be raised from nine to twenty-one weeks of age on rations containing as high as 8 per cent of salt with no apparent detrimental effects on their condition. The experiments further showed that after the birds had become accustomed to such salty rations, they ate enough of them to keep on growing about as fast as chickens that received a much smaller percentage of salt in their feed. The experiments were conducted by H. H. Mitchell, chief in animal nutrition ; L. E. Card, chief in poultry husbandry, and O. G. Garman, formerly assistant in animal nutrition. Because of the general belief that chickens are very readily poisoned by common table salt and because of the common occurrence of salt in wastes and by-product feeds for poultry, it was considered Important to determine definitely whether the use of such wastes and feeds is dangerous to health or retards growth. This experiment was planned, therefore, in order to determine (1) the maximum percentage of salt that may be fed to growing chickens without harmful results, and (2) the maximum single dose of salt that a chicken can tolerate, or the smallest dose that would cause death. In all, 75 chickens from three breeds were used. Fifty chickens were given a basal ration made up of yellow corn, bran, dried buttermilk, steamed bone meal and ground limestone, containing percentages of salt of 1, 2, 4 and 8. Twenty-five other chickens were used In determining the maximum single dose of salt that an adult chicken can tolerate. It was found that chickens could be raised from nine to twenty-one weeks of age on rations containing as high as 8 per cent of salt with no apparently detrimental effects. While It took some time for the chickens to become accustomed to such a salty ration, they soon learned to eat enough of It to promote a rate of growth approximately the same as that of chickens fed the check ration. When the salt was mixed in the feed, a dally Intake of 6 to 8 grams of salt a bird appeared to have no harmful effect on the birds that were 9 weeks old or older. *"Salt put directly Into the crop In two equal doses amounting to 12 to 16 grams daily was quickly fatal In the case of birds weighing 2 to 4 pounds each. Salt given In solution twice dally proved to be more toxic than equal amounts consumed In the feed. The minimum lethal single dose of salt fon birds weighing 3 to 5 pounds was found to be close to 4 grams a kilogram of body weight. m<» m e > »i ei» > »j» e » » » » » » e » » i » » » » ^•^r^r-m • » • t * 9<m ! » » • « » « AROUND THE HOME By MARGARET BRUCE » » n « - * >X»XSX*XsXSXS » • « • « « • • » » » » • « JfaXi*^&!m&&& » « » » The capitol building in Washington has Just received its yearly bath.

Rattle* Kill Only 12 Per Cent of Victims Saa Antonio, Texas.—Most persons who die from rattlesnake bites are •eared to death, Maj. B. E. Scott, It C tali •empin of the Oooopoa dab meeting here. Major Scott, who is tn charge of administration of snakebite serum in this section of the country, said the percentage of fatalities from rattler bites is only 12 per cent but that the low fatality was probahly caused^by the failure of the reptile to Inject a fatal portion of poison each time it strikes. The only poisonous snakes found In this section of the country are the rattlers, moccasins and copperheads, he said. A few cowl snakes are found, which are most dangerous of all, but they are rare. The percentage of deaths from moccasin and copperhead bites is 8 per cent, he said. Major Scott said the first thing to do when one Is bitten by a snake is to bind a tooHquet between the wound and the heart This should be loosened every 20 mlnots to permit the blood to circulate, he said. Then make Incisions lengthwise about the wound to permit a free Sow of blood ead go ft* a doctor. * Silk cultnre promises to become aa importaat tsdatfsj hi the Phillpptoea. Profitable Place for Ducks on Average Farm Few people realize the profitable place the duck should have on the farm. There was a time when the duck was not a profit hut that time Is long past. With better feeding methods of poultry and the better understanding of the care they should have the duck Is rapidly coming to the front. The Pekln duck is a meat bird and should be considered as such. However, It Is not uncommon to get 140 eggs in a season with proper feed. The breeders should be selected early In the summer and fed on a grain ration until the first of December, then put on s mash. We have found a good mash to be made of equal parts of ground corn, ground oats, bran, shorts, low-grade flour and meat scraps, says a writer in the Indiana Farmer's Guide. This should be fed wet twice each day, night and morning, with grain at noon. It Is not necessary to have water for the ducks to swim in, but the fertility of the eggs will be better if water Is available. Water to swim In is a detriment to young stock that is grown for the market, for the exercise makes the meat tough and strinjry and they do not put on fat very fast WNU Serrlce One Green Vegetable a Day "I'm not very strong on calories, a balanced ration, vltamines, and other s c i e n t i f i c ! ! llyuarned attributes of the dally meals," laughed a housewife r e c e n t l y . "Great stress is laid on the makeup of the family meals, but some j way 1 do not notice that meals ar« very different, for a' that. Our grandmothers s e r v e d much the same foods that we do —a soup, meat, potatoes or rice, a green vegetable or two, celery, pickles, and a sweet to top off with. Except that they ate about twice a* much as we do, the menu was approximately the same. We call it a balanced diet and they called It getting dinner! "As a mater of fact the well-balanced meal is not only more wholesome and digestible, but it tastes better. No one would want to eat two starchy foods at the same meal, evea If it were good for him. People naturally choose a balanced ration. Things 'go well together.' We have learned through long experience what foods do not go well together; and while occasionally the young cook makes the mistake of assembling too many sweets, too many acids, or too many starches, she soon finds that they do not make a hit and changes her ways. "So I Just let my family eat naturally, without much thought of vitamines and calories. But one thing I do Insist on, and that is at least one green vegetable a day. And when I say I mean a green vegetable, I mean a green vegetable. I do not mean canned corn, or lima beans, and I am sometimes tempted not to Include green peas with potatoes or rice, unless they are very new and tender green peas right out of the garden. These, to me, are starchy, thick foods, and not at all "green" in the sense that connects the word with string beans, spinach, carrots, parsnips, summer squash, beets, celery, egg plant and other foods that are watery, as against dry. "I do believe that the system needs Its daily green vegetable In some form or other. If a salad is served, using plenty of lettuce, cress, or chicory, that will take the place of the vegetable. As soon as possible In ths spring I serve rhubarb, and all during the summer I use vegetable tops, or "greens" freely. Cauliflower and cabbage, turnips and pumpkin all fill the bill. There are so many green vegetables that the housewife may serve one every day In the year without being too frequent repetition." Housing Old Ducks Old ducks need no particular care. They should have a place where they can keep dry at night. Tn the winter any dry house will answer for quarters. They can travel about in the cold and snow during the day, but at night they shonld have a warm place. Eggs are usually laid in the early morning, so It Is advisable to keep the birds shut in until all have laid. IK> not try to keep dncks and hens In the same pen. Ducks need a soft feed and they are dirty about their eating. High Prices for Eggs Ejrg production during the months of hieh prices Is n matter of first getting hens that 6r% bred for egg production, and following that with the proper methods of care, feeding and management. Commercial poultry men rather generally sell all two-year-old hens, but breeders keep their best bens for many years in some cases. If a hen possesses valuable characteristics, i| Is only a matter of common sense to use that hea for a breeder aa loot aa possible. Turning Defeat Into Victory The young housewife stood In ths middle of her kitchen, wringing her hands and giving voice to genuine wails of distress. Before her on the snowy table stood a cake—a wreck of a cake—fallen In the middle and ragged and crumbly around the edges. The icing had been too thin and had refused to spread, dripping down over the sides of the loaf and revealing here and there bare patches of slightly burned surface. It was a pathetic sight that cake. It was one of those petty tragedies that we home women all experience at one time or another, and that fill us temporarily with despair. "I wouldn't mind a bit If it wers for home use," moaned the housewife, "but I promised to bake it for the Vassar cake sale, and there Isn't time ts start another. I'm late as It is. What an awful looking thing I I can't tak« that mess up to Betty's. The glrli would all certainly have the laugh on me. Yet I can't bear not to do my share." She wiped her eyes and stood star lng disconsolately at the cake. Prizes had been offered for the best cakei and she had hoped hers would be • winner. And Just look at it! Sh< looked and grinned. It was so utterly ruined that It was funny. Then shi laughed aloud, for she suddenly had/ an idea for turning defeat to victory She rushed to her desk, drew out on« of her visiting cards and printed oo the back, In clear letters: "Singed Cat Cake! Better The* It Looks!" This sign she affixed to a long violei pin and stock it upright in the for lorn, draggled cake. "It does taste all right, I know that/ she assured herself; "and it isn't as 11 the girls did not know I could bake wonderful cake—sometimes! I'll taki it along to show that I meant well and that I'm a good sport I" The singed cat cake was the sense tlon of the sale, being greeted wits shrieks of laughter, and winning—well a consolation prize, anyway.
