SANITATION PAYS&#13;
CHICKEN RAISERS&#13;
Illinois farmers, who took big strides&#13;
toward more profitable pork production&#13;
by udoptiug swine sanltution, a r e&#13;
now finding thui sanitation pays Just&#13;
as well around the chicken lot as It&#13;
does with pigs. To further the Idea,&#13;
poultry specialists of the college of agriculture,&#13;
University of Illinois mapped&#13;
out a workable system of poultry sanitation&#13;
and already many chicken&#13;
r a i s e r s of the s t a t e are profiting a s a&#13;
result of It,&#13;
T h e r e ' s the case of B, A. Barker, a&#13;
Grundy county farmer, for instance,&#13;
who took up the poultry sanitation&#13;
idea and thereby put a stop to the&#13;
heavy losses which he had been taking&#13;
*Ls a result of t a p e w o r m s and other&#13;
poultry parasites and diseases. Ln&#13;
connection with the sanltution system,&#13;
B a r k e r yarded his old hens for the&#13;
first time this past year a n d a s a result&#13;
t h e egg production of the flock&#13;
w a s more uniform t h r o u g h o u t the summer&#13;
t h a n it had been in previous&#13;
years, due to t h e fact t h a t the hens&#13;
were uniformly fed. Under this plan&#13;
they a l w a y s hud access to mash but&#13;
were not allowed to overeat on grain.&#13;
B a r k e r h a s co-operated with t h e agritultural&#13;
college In Its poultry nock&#13;
record project for three years.&#13;
In putting t h e poultry sanitation&#13;
plan Into practice on his farm, B a r k e r&#13;
had his flock tested for tuberculosis.&#13;
It also w a s pronounced free of baclllary&#13;
white diarrhea, one of the worst&#13;
of t h e many chick diseases. T h e old&#13;
yard w h e r e most of the chicks had&#13;
been raised before was t u r n e d Into a&#13;
garden and t h e chicks t h i s past year&#13;
raiSSd on fresh ground which w a s&#13;

Feeding Soaked Bread&#13;
Is Dangerous Practice&#13;
T h e r e is danger in feeding soaked&#13;
bread to poultry, according to a w r i t e r&#13;
In an exchange. Soaked bread, he&#13;
j says, is one of the worst things one&#13;
; can feed poultry, either young or old.&#13;
as usually fed, but there Is a w a y of&#13;
• feeding stale bread that t r a n s f o r m s It&#13;
into one of the best and cheapest&#13;
poultry foods.&#13;
T o do this cut t h e bread Into slices&#13;
and dry it over a stove or In t h e oven,&#13;
until It is d r y enough to c r a c k ; put&#13;
the b r e a d in a pail, or stout box, and&#13;
chop it up with a spade.&#13;
W h e n ready to feed, p u t a quantity&#13;
of t h i s in a pail, cover with hot water&#13;
and pour w a t e r off In about one minute,&#13;
then mix in enough mash so t h a t&#13;
it will crumble. F o r summer or winter&#13;
feeding this cannot be beaten as an&#13;
egg or flesh producer. T h e finer particles&#13;
of bread left in t h e bottom of&#13;
the box when chopping u p the bread&#13;
m a k e an excellent food for small&#13;
; chicks and may be fed dry.&#13;

If the employee-ownership principle were applied to all industry,&#13;
America, within one generation, would become a strike-proof nation.&#13;
Its democracy would be industrial as well as political, and the capitalistic&#13;
system would not only have been humanized, but would have&#13;
reached its maximum of usefulness in the advancement of human progress&#13;
and civilisation.&#13;
American best way to overcome industrial autocracy is to harness&#13;
labor and capital into an industrial democracy for greater production&#13;
with proper distribution of the resultant profits, since labor, capital and&#13;
consumer are all benefited through added production, which makes for w l l | | f S , n m e aPe w.orkP(1 n n t ln o n e&#13;

THE CORN BORER&#13;
Announcement&#13;
I have opened a Shoe Shop in the Darrow building&#13;
and respectfully solicit your patronage. Will&#13;
guarantee a good job. I wall also repair automobile&#13;
side curtains.&#13;
BOONE A M B U R G E Y&#13;
The European Corn Borer is making&#13;
himself known in various places&#13;
in the Country. Farmers in seven&#13;
townships have reported finding the&#13;
borer in their fields. The number observed&#13;
in each case has been very few&#13;
but it is a good warning for the farmers&#13;
in the county to heed, as the&#13;
spread can be much easier controlled&#13;
not ensilaged will aid in keeping down&#13;
than when it begins to have a commercial&#13;
damage.&#13;
It must be remembered that it takes&#13;
the borer from 4 to 5 years from the&#13;
time of first infestation to affect any&#13;
great damage to the crop. The cleaning-&#13;
up and shredding of com stalks&#13;
not ensilaged will aid inkeeping down&#13;
the spring hatch*&#13;
It was very gratifying to note the&#13;
way farmers in Livingston county&#13;
in general last spring were itteMMted&#13;
in cleaning up and plowing fJisiaT the&#13;
corn stalks before the hat^hta* . B a -&#13;
son. This may account for H n *«ry&#13;
small infestation in the couttH ** &amp;*•&#13;

| DOES YOUR CAR START HARD?&#13;
Now that cold weather is here you may be caused&#13;
no little inconvenience and loss of time by the&#13;
slow starting of your car which fails to respond as&#13;
quickly asit did during the summer months. There&#13;
may be several reasons for this. Here are some of&#13;
them:&#13;
Your battery may be down.&#13;
Your oil too heavy for winter. .&#13;
Your coils wyorn out or&#13;
There may be a loose connection&#13;

For Her to Drive&#13;
Li yuur'e choosing a low-priced car that has to meet&#13;
with feminine approval—be guided by the experience&#13;
of tens of thousands, and buy a Chevrolet!&#13;
Like no other car of its class, Chevrolet combines&#13;
those features which make a car easy for women to&#13;
operate with those qualities that women instinctively&#13;
demand in an automobile.&#13;
it is easy to start, steer and stop. It is simple and safe&#13;
to handle under all conditions. And, best of all, it offers&#13;
the inimitable smartness, elegance and luxury of&#13;
bodies by Fisher on all closed models.&#13;

. B e says the New Brunswick official*&#13;
sought to hold him and his associates&#13;
Qp in a railroad franchise grant and&#13;
that he counseled resistance, but his&#13;
associates came across.&#13;
On Wednesday congress was officially&#13;
Informed of the death of Senator&#13;
William B. McKlnley of TIllnoK&#13;
and both houses ad.loumed In respect&#13;
to his memory. Vice President Dnwes&#13;
and Speaker Longworth appointed&#13;
committees to attend the funeral in&#13;
Champaign,&#13;
President Coolidge In his message&#13;
made numerous recommendations for&#13;
legislation, although It Is admitted&#13;
that there will be time to do little&#13;
s "•"' more than pass the necessary appropriation&#13;
bills. The President asked the&#13;
house ways and means committee to&#13;
introduce a hill granting a reduction&#13;
of Income taxes due In March and&#13;
June, 1927, stating that the surplus of&#13;
government revenue for the currpnt&#13;
fiscal year which could be so applied&#13;
was abont $383,000,000. He said he&#13;
did not think any change In the special&#13;
taxes or any permanent reduction&#13;
was practical at this time. The&#13;
Democratic leaders have indicated&#13;
that they will demand a permanent&#13;
reduction.&#13;
In the matter of farm relief legislation&#13;
Mr. Coolrdge reasserted his opposition&#13;
to anything in the nature of&#13;
price fixing hy the government, hut&#13;
anggested that something might be&#13;
done to solve the surplus problem by&#13;
supplementing the operations of the&#13;
co-operative marketing organizations.&#13;
As for the cotton growers, he said&#13;
they must reduce their acreage for the&#13;
coming year hy about one-third. Com&#13;
belt leaders in congress answered this&#13;
clause of the message with the announcement&#13;
that the McNary-Haugen&#13;
ll^-would be reintroduced at once.&#13;
'. Coolidge recommended that the&#13;
Ipplnes be transferred from mlll-&#13;
^.. vary to civil rule as goon as possible,&#13;
It said the islands should not be&#13;
en complete Independence until the&#13;
Ives are "politically fitted for selfgovernment&#13;
and economically Independent."&#13;
He added the assurance&#13;
that the Cnlted States would always&#13;
bear some responsibility for the defense&#13;
of the islands.&#13;
Concerning prohibition the message&#13;
called for reform of abuses In enforcement&#13;
and said congress should speed&#13;
ily enact such supplementary legislation&#13;
as the Treasury department might&#13;
ask to strengthen the Volstead act.&#13;
The first of the treasury measures&#13;
was introduced In the house Wednesday&#13;
and it Included the appropriation&#13;
of $T)00.000 for "advances to be made&#13;
by special disbursing agents.** which&#13;
means the purchasing of evidence.&#13;
Several members of the committee refneed&#13;
to vote for this, and others said&#13;
they would fight it on the floor of the&#13;
feeaea.&#13;

lack of funds. The decUftt ta the parsonnel&#13;
of the a m y already had been&#13;
called to public attention by army officials.&#13;
The budget provides for $571.-&#13;
000,000 for national defense, and the&#13;
President said this was "a very considerable&#13;
amount to spend for protection&#13;
In time of peace."&#13;
Mr. Coolidge called attention to the&#13;
fact that no provision is made In the&#13;
estimates of the Navy department for&#13;
commencing construction of the remaining&#13;
three of the eight light&#13;
cruisers which the act of December&#13;
18, 1024, authorizes to be undertaken&#13;
prior to July 1, 1927, He expressed&#13;
his approval of this omission. Against&#13;
this "Interference" the house naval affairs&#13;
committee promptly revolted.&#13;
Secretary of the Navy Wilbur and his&#13;
chief aids were called before the committee&#13;
and told It that of the eight&#13;
cruisers mentioned, which were scheduled&#13;
for completion In 1927. only two&#13;
have been started and they cannot he&#13;
completed before 1029. Chairman Butler&#13;
then declared that so far as he&#13;
and most of the majority members of&#13;
the committee were concerned, no&#13;
more navy proposals will he approved&#13;
until assurances are received that,&#13;
once authorized, the programs will be&#13;
pushed to completion in accordance&#13;
with the legislation.&#13;
Under a spedal order the house&#13;
passed the senate bill providing for increases&#13;
in the salaries of federal&#13;
Judges In the Supreme, Circuit, District&#13;
and other courts.&#13;
Foreign Minister NInchltch resigned&#13;
and was followed out by the ent1r«&#13;
Jugo-Slav cabinet. This was a sur&#13;
prise to the Italians for they haC&#13;
considered Ninctiitch their good friend&#13;
Officially, Mussolini's government de&#13;
clared the treaty contained no secrei&#13;
military clauses and could in no waj&#13;
be considered Injurious to peace is&#13;
the Balkans. It was, said the Italians&#13;
Merely a pact of friendship and arbl&#13;
traticn between Italy and Albania, in&#13;
fljKM|ff peace, guaranteeing absoluti&#13;
eerertlgnty and territorial integrity te&#13;
Albania, and confirming and emphaslz&#13;
ing* the principles upheld by th«&#13;
League of Nations.&#13;
DREMTER MUSSOLINI, by a decre*&#13;
* law, has imposed a tax on all&#13;
bachelors in Italy between the age*&#13;
of twenty-five and sixty-five. This It&#13;
another step in his campaign agalnsl&#13;
birth control. The tax is progressive&#13;
according to Income, and the proceed*&#13;
will be turned over to the National Tn&#13;
stltute for the Protection of Mother&#13;
hood and Childhood. Unmarried women&#13;
are not subject to the tax.&#13;
M OST eminent of those taken bj&#13;
death last week was Claude Mc&#13;
net, the French painter. He wa»&#13;
eighty-six years old and the last sur&#13;
vivor of the great Impressionist group&#13;
of the RO's which included Manet, Re&#13;
BOlr, Pissaro and Sisley.&#13;
A CTIVITIES of the administrator&#13;
in behalf of Adolfo Diaz, presi&#13;
dent of Nicaragua, seem fated tc&#13;
prove decidedly injurious to the pres&#13;
tlge of the United States In Latlr&#13;
America. Juan B. Sacasa, who wr\«&#13;
the candidate of the revolutionary&#13;
liberals, has set up his government&#13;
In Puerto Oabezas and has been for&#13;
mally recognized as president by Mei&#13;
Ico. This lead is expected to be followed&#13;
by Salvador, Guatemala anr!&#13;
Panama, while Costa Rica and Honduras&#13;
are awaiting developments&#13;
Guatemala sent an offer of mediation&#13;
hut Diaz considered this as favoring&#13;
Mexican intervention. However, b(&#13;
advised Sacasa that he would glv*&#13;
him safe conduct to the Interior tc&#13;
discuss peace negotiations, Sacasa'i&#13;
followers are confident that he wll'&#13;
win eventually and must be recognize&#13;
hy the United States. Toward thf&#13;
end of the week It was reported thai&#13;
Sacasa and his cabinet were effectual&#13;
ly penned up In Puerto Cabezas by&#13;

R EVERTING to the agriculturists.&#13;
the American Farm Bureau Federation&#13;
was In session In Chicago and&#13;
apparently got the Middle West and&#13;
the South together on a proposed program&#13;
of farm relief. They adopted&#13;
the Ideas of Frank O. Lowden and outlined&#13;
o surplus control measure whirh&#13;
they will ask congress to pass. Briefly,&#13;
It will do these things :&#13;
Provide a federal farm board, administering&#13;
an adequate revolving&#13;
fund, with whose help surpluses can&#13;
actually be handled by co-operative&#13;
agencies created hy the farmers.&#13;
Distribute the costs of managing&#13;
surpluses Just as broadly as the resultant&#13;
benefits are distributed, that&#13;
is. over each .marketed unit of a particular&#13;
commodity through the equalization&#13;
fee.&#13;
The federation adopted a long list&#13;
of resolutions on matters vital to agriculture,&#13;
and elected these new directors:&#13;
Central section, Hugh Harper,&#13;
Lancaster, Wis,: eastern section. E.&#13;
B. Cornwall. Middlebury. Vt.; southern.&#13;
Frank Demmlck. Shnteston. Ln.;&#13;

WHEN the League of Nation?&#13;
council began Its Deoemher session&#13;
in Geneva it was confronted by&#13;
the demands of Germany that allied&#13;
military control of that country b(&#13;
abolished and that the evacuation o1&#13;
the Rhlneland take plac* speedily&#13;
Opposed to these demands was the de&#13;
termination of the French that Franc*&#13;
and her allies on the east first be as&#13;
sured against future aggression&#13;
Stresemann, Chamberlain and Rrlanr&#13;
had private conversations and reaehec&#13;
an agreement on the military contro&#13;
question. The new accord provide*&#13;
that the interallied military contro'&#13;
commission, with headquarters in Ber&#13;
tin since the armistice, will leave Ger&#13;
many and be dissolved by January If&#13;
or 30. Supervision of Germany's disarmament&#13;
will he placed In charge 01&#13;
a league commission, as provided by&#13;
the covenant.&#13;
The three foreign ministers ther&#13;
tackled the other problem, and it wa?&#13;
said they probably would agree on ar&#13;
early evacuation of the Coblenz anr&#13;
Mayence bridgeheads and the with&#13;
drawal of all British and Belgini&#13;
troops of occupation.&#13;
ITALY'S recently signed treaty with&#13;
Albania has stirred up a great fuss )&#13;
ln the Balkans and in some European&#13;
capitals there were fears that It wot.Id&#13;
lead to another war. The Serbs were&#13;
especially anfry. feeling that it was&#13;
directed primarily against them, and&#13;
THE League of Nations virtuall;&#13;

not recognize the lengne and would&#13;
not Join It after the civil war is ended&#13;

bunches of white on the pine trees.&#13;
There was a holiday feeling of excitement&#13;
even in tne stuffy car. The porter&#13;
was gay with a sprig of holly In&#13;
his buttonhole. In spite of her resentment&#13;
she could not prevent a&#13;
thrill of happiness running through&#13;
her veins.&#13;
Home again after many months of&#13;
hard work in New York! Home to&#13;
the joliy fireplace, the absurd and lovable&#13;
dog, and best of all, home with&#13;
the rollicking family of younger brothers&#13;
and sisters. And, mother!&#13;
They had planned, Philip and she,&#13;
to have this Christmas together at&#13;
her mother's. Philip had always lived&#13;
in New York. Of course *he had&#13;
known about the country and small&#13;
country towns, but not as Marcia had.&#13;
They had spent many delightful hours&#13;
talking over the good times they&#13;
would have sliding down hill, going&#13;
about singing carols on Christmas eve,&#13;
stuffing the stockings for the children,&#13;
tramping through the woods. All the&#13;
country entertainments which go so&#13;
perfectly with the holiday season.&#13;
And Philip had loved It all&#13;
He had an aont, an elderly creature&#13;
who lived in the next town.&#13;
Philip talked of ber and said he had&#13;
almost promised to spend Christmas&#13;
day with her, but now he couldn't&#13;
think of i t He must go home with&#13;
Marcia, and Aunt Caroline could go&#13;
hang!&#13;
Of course, reflected Marcia, that&#13;
was where he was bound for now.&#13;
Too annoying that his seat happened&#13;
to be« near hers.&#13;
The train ran smoothly on polished&#13;
rails. A soothing lullaby seemed to&#13;
click from the wheels. Marcia sub-,&#13;
sided Into deep revery.&#13;
9ir %nb&#13;
It must have been an hour out of&#13;
New York when there came the grating&#13;
pull-back of the brakes. The&#13;
train jolted and jerked. Marcia sat&#13;
up in startled suddenness. She found&#13;
herself looking straight into the dark&#13;
eyes opposite. She stared at Philip&#13;
and Philip stared at her.&#13;
A tearing crash*! The sharp splinter&#13;
of glass ! Frightened cries ! The&#13;
car was in an uproar!&#13;
The porter stood among them. "All&#13;
right, everybody! All right! Don't&#13;
you go^to get skeered! We ran down&#13;
the end of a freight . . . nobody&#13;
hurt. Stay right where you am !"&#13;
Marcia and Philip stood obediently&#13;
just where they were. Philip's&#13;
arm was around Marcla's waist. Marcia's&#13;
frightened face was pressed close&#13;
to Philip's lapel on Lis coat.&#13;
"Thank God, you're safe!" whispered&#13;
Philip. His voice shook. Marcia&#13;
was swept off her feet by a surge&#13;
of sweet comfort. Philip near in an&#13;
accident! Philip holding her close,&#13;
trying to save her from pain and distress.&#13;
Before she hardly knew what&#13;
she said, she heard her voice whispering&#13;
in his ear! "Come home with&#13;
me, please! I want you t o ! " *&#13;
Philip thrust her away from him&#13;
in pretended concern. '^But what about&#13;
Aunt Caroline? Dear, dear Aunt&#13;
Caroline!"&#13;
"Oh, pshaw! Philip Henderson,&#13;
you know as well as I do, that you&#13;
never went there before in your life&#13;
and are just doing it because you&#13;
haven't any place else to go!"&#13;
The man grinned. "Well, of course,&#13;
if you insist, and all that sort of&#13;
thing, I'll do it to save wear and tear&#13;
(" on the disposition."&#13;
After several hours of work by the&#13;
wrecking crew, Marcia and Philip&#13;
were again on their way towards her&#13;
home. One of the boys met them at&#13;
the station with an old-fashioned&#13;
sleigh. A moon spilled silver on the&#13;
hills. Mother met them at the door.&#13;
Candles shone from the windows. A&#13;
howling mob of youngsters hurled&#13;
themselves on Marcia the minute she&#13;
stepped on the threshold. It was all&#13;
as merry and perfect a scene as you&#13;
could find ln a long journey.&#13;
But there was a moment of secret&#13;
understanding between the mother of&#13;
Marcia, and Philip. They stood together&#13;
in the hall under the mistletoe.&#13;
Marcia had been carried into the living*'*''&gt;&#13;
om on the tide of her joyous reception.&#13;
"I got your letter," said Philip&#13;
"with the seat number and train. Lt&#13;
was awfully good of you to find out&#13;
for me. How did you manage?"&#13;
"Oh, the way we mothers the world&#13;
over manage things, when we want&#13;
our daughters to be happy. It was&#13;
such a silly quarrel between you two.&#13;
I did not plan the wreck, however.&#13;
That literally threw you together very&#13;
successfully."&#13;
They laughed together. Then Marcia's&#13;
mother called to her. "Come&#13;
here a minute, daughter. I want you&#13;
to see the decorations in the hall."&#13;
Marcla's mother was a woman of&#13;
imagination. She left the lately arrived&#13;
travelers in the hall under a&#13;
friendly bit of mistletoe. And what&#13;
that scrap of Christmas green saw&#13;
and heard Is nobody's business!&#13;

y&#13;
3T WTAS just a few days before&#13;
the great holiday and a delightful&#13;
snow storm was in progress.&#13;
The wind as it whistled past whispered&#13;
of the grand and glorious "Christmas'Spirit."&#13;
The most prosperous Christmas in&#13;
many a year had struck Cedar Junction.&#13;
Happy, snow-bedecked crowds&#13;
swarmed the downtown district,&#13;
ablaze with glimmering lights and decorative&#13;
displays.&#13;
Perhaps old Silas, who lived on&#13;
the rural route just outside of town,&#13;
was the only human being to whom&#13;
Christmas meant nothing. He had become&#13;
separated from everyone who&#13;
had ever been dear to him, and as the&#13;
years slipped by&#13;
he had grown&#13;
strangely morose&#13;
and indifferent.&#13;
Children w e r e&#13;
afraid of him and&#13;
grown-ups stayed&#13;
clear of him.&#13;
Now, It seems&#13;
*l«*Tyfcet&lt;Tt&#13;
Christmas t i m e&#13;
they all did their&#13;
bit toward making&#13;
e v e r y o n e&#13;
happy.&#13;
But SI had always&#13;
been for«&#13;
gotten. No one&#13;
ever think of making&#13;
B* (got His £harr&#13;
seemed to&#13;
him happy.&#13;
This year a new member had entered&#13;
the Men's Card club, one Joseph&#13;
Bartlett, an extremely fine fellow all&#13;
round, who was always suggesting&#13;
something new and original.&#13;
At their final meeting before&#13;
Christmas, when all had been satisfactorily&#13;
arranged, 'twas Joseph&#13;
who smilingly arose, filled to the brim&#13;
with the Christmas spirit and made&#13;
the following motion:&#13;
"Say, boys! How about making&#13;
'Od Si' on the rural route, happy&#13;
this Christmas?"&#13;
At first there was a dead sldence,&#13;
Every one was too shocked to speak.&#13;
But when the idea finally dawned&#13;
upon them, all seconded the motion.&#13;
In the midst of the other celebrations,&#13;
the "Happy Twelve" of the&#13;
card club were busy making preparations&#13;
for the call on Si. They trimmed&#13;
a small table tree delightfully, with&#13;
"Siias" Inscribed on a huge star at&#13;
its peak. Then they prepared a&#13;
cherry punch, purchased a super-box&#13;
of excellent cigars and sallied forth&#13;
headed by Joseph, the brave, who&#13;
was thoughtful enough to slip a deck&#13;
of cards into his coat pocket besides.&#13;
T w a s about 9 p. m. and Si had&#13;
retired as usual, at an early hour,&#13;
when there came a loud knock upon&#13;
his door.&#13;
Jumping out of bed with a thump,&#13;
he roared: "Who's there?"&#13;
"Merry Christmas," shouted the&#13;
club. •&#13;
"Well," what of it?" cried Silas.&#13;
'"SVe have come to celebrate wtfk&#13;
you. Let us in."&#13;
"What do yon mean, you band i f&#13;
scalawags? Get out of here befeft&#13;
I call the police." T&#13;
' The others were ready to fle* ftp&#13;
their lives, but Joseph was not to&#13;
put off so easily. Then came the&#13;
surprise.&#13;
"SI, don't you remember&#13;
brother, Joseph, whom you thought to&#13;
be dead? it Is I ! For God's sake open&#13;
the door!"&#13;
With a crash, the door was swnfia&#13;
open and the brothers wex° in each&#13;
other's arms as tears streamed down&#13;
the cheeks of Old 81, bnt they were&#13;
Christmas tears of joy.&#13;
Then followed suchc a celebration as&#13;
Cedar Junction had never beheld. Al!&#13;
who passed the little house wondered&#13;
why the lights at Old Si's place were&#13;
burning all night But the biggest&#13;
shock of all was when they actually&#13;
saw a sparkling Christmas tree in&#13;
the window. /&#13;

it all carefully chopped up tine for me&#13;
so It is nice mid easy to eat It.&#13;
"I would not like it if she became&#13;
careless. I must say I'm not bothered&#13;
with the 'help' problem as some people&#13;
speak of being bothered with it. 1&#13;

"Of course I am quite sure the cook&#13;
J knows she cannot do any way with me.&#13;
^ She feels, 1 know, that I am used to&#13;
the best. My mother used to ««y to&#13;
me when I was young :&#13;
*' 'Always make creatures think&#13;
you're used to the best. If yoa let&#13;
them think you're satisfied with any&#13;
old thing they'll give yoa any old&#13;
thing.' And I've found my mother's&#13;
advice very good.&#13;
"I have shown that I expected the&#13;
best and the best has always been&#13;
given to me. Then I have a lovelywarm&#13;
bed for the kittens which the&#13;
cook fixed for me. It Is so nice and&#13;
soft, padded with lovely soft cotton.&#13;
The kittens are very ccjaTortable.&#13;
"And that is what I call very satisfactory&#13;
housekeeping."&#13;
"Yes," said Mrs. Black Cat, "you are&#13;
really very lucky. I am fortunate, too,&#13;
though sometimes 1 do enjoy a mouse.&#13;
However, It is not because I am not&#13;
fed all I want. It is because I love&#13;
the hunt and the chase."&#13;
"Well, now you speak of it," said&#13;
Mrs. Cat, "I think I will go mouse&#13;
hunting myself before long. Your&#13;
speaking of It makes me think of&#13;
pleasant past adventures. But let us&#13;
take a little nap now."&#13;
Mrs. Black Cat wasn't in the least&#13;
Insulted because Mrs. Cat suggested&#13;
that they should keep quiet and rewL&#13;
She, too, felt like a nap.&#13;
So the two cats closed their eye*&#13;
and they had a delicious cat nap and&#13;
after a while as the sun was going&#13;
down Mrs. Black Cat got up and&#13;
stretched herself and said:&#13;
"Well, Mrs. Cat, I must be going&#13;
home. Supper will be ready for me.&#13;
And I believe In being on time for my&#13;
meals."&#13;
"The same with me," said Mrs. Cat.&#13;
"And I know the kittens will be wondering&#13;
what has become of me. I&#13;
must go to my children. Well, glad to&#13;
I have seen you. Call again, Mrs. Black&#13;
;Cat. Good-by, me-ow, me-ow."&#13;
&lt;, "Good-by, me-ow, me-ow," said Mrs.&#13;
Slack Cat. "I've had such a pleasant&#13;

THE TURNED STONE&#13;
i n - v&#13;
GO OUT in the spring and turn up&#13;
a brick or a stone on the ground&#13;
s*d look under It at the earth. The&#13;
&gt;r of the earth exposed will be the&#13;
»r of the hair of your future husband.&#13;
This Is a "project" for girls&#13;
and is apparently a more common superstitions&#13;
In the southern states than&#13;
in the northern, though It may be&#13;
met with in widely separated localities.&#13;
It Is an especial favorite with&#13;
the Maryland maidens, according to&#13;
the Journal of the American Folk-&#13;
Lore Society. This superstition is apparently&#13;
akin to that of the lover's&#13;
hair found In the shoe of the Inquiring&#13;
maiden when she hears the first call&#13;
of the bird which Is the harbinger of&#13;
spring.&#13;
It Is from the Northern races, evidently,&#13;
that we inherit the superstition&#13;
of the turned stone; for It and similar&#13;
folk-lore ideas are found mostly, if not&#13;
entirely, In the northern part of Europe.&#13;
The Norse mythology was an&#13;
overshadowing one for that part of&#13;
the world and in the' British isles and&#13;
In northern Germany its effect has regained&#13;
solidly Impressed upon Brlt-&#13;
. | J | and Teutonic folk-lore. The su-&#13;
*jjirstltion In question seems to be a&#13;
ppfvlval of the Idea contained tn the&#13;
story of Balder the Beautiful—that&#13;
shining Norse god supposed by some&#13;
authorities to have represented the&#13;
Bpffit of vegetation which passes part&#13;

t a S a f t e r Ragnarock, the "Twilight&#13;
of f t e Gods," but if the speculations&#13;
of Tames Fraser are correct, it would&#13;
appear as If his death Insured the annual&#13;
return of vegetation. According&#13;
to one version Balder was the son of&#13;
Odin and the goddess Freya. The latter&#13;
was the goddess of love: Long centuries&#13;
before Tennyson wrote of "a&#13;
young man's fancy** love and the&#13;
sprtoftinie were conceived as being&#13;
"affinities," The association of ideas&#13;

I gave up was dancing. I shall not&#13;
dance till next year. My stable of&#13;

there is no thrill dancing with any of&#13;
them.&#13;

now and then instead of backing roe,&#13;
he backs himself and bumps into people&#13;
on the floor, and then he is not&#13;
as careful as he could be rounding&#13;
the turns and when he tries to kiss&#13;
me good night he bores me instead&#13;
of thrills me and I begin to wish&#13;
some other fellow would take me to&#13;
the next dance. Next thing I duck&#13;
dates with him in hopes that some new&#13;
aspirant to my heart and hand will&#13;
ask me out!&#13;

I say .hose fatal words that tie me&#13;

tired of looking at him at breakfast&#13;
and will I find out after I marry him&#13;
that he takes meat, potatoes and&#13;
bread on his fork at one time and&#13;
stuffs the balanced ration In his&#13;
mouth all at once? But I have given&#13;
up dancing until next year and will&#13;

WHEN I WAS&#13;
TWENTY-ONE&#13;
BY JOSEPH K.AYE&#13;
J&#13;
A t 21—Gutzon Borglum Began His&#13;
Art Studies.&#13;
"A T ABOUT this time I entered&#13;
an art school for the first&#13;
time, in San Francisco.&#13;
"Previous to that I ran away from&#13;
St. Mary's, a boy's school near Topeka,&#13;
Kans., where I remained for two&#13;
years, drawing more than I studied,&#13;
and where the teacher made me do&#13;
pictures and statues of the saints and&#13;
the pope to be used in the chapel.&#13;
"They had me do too much of that,&#13;
and I got tired and ran away, returning&#13;
to my parents in Omaha. On th»&#13;
way I bought the first real paints I&#13;
ever owned.&#13;
"In Omaha I attended the public&#13;
schools, but went on drawing In my&#13;
books and etching on my slate. I&#13;
never had received any Instruction In&#13;
the technique of art except from sn&#13;
occasional, itinerant teacher, who was&#13;
no good.&#13;
"Then ray father took us to Los Angeles,&#13;
where the color In the hills, the&#13;
vividness in the sunrises, had always&#13;
so Inspired me, and there I gave myself&#13;
over to painting. Most of my pictures&#13;
were of horses, Indians and&#13;
frontier life. Some of them ware sold&#13;
locally, and In that way I earned&#13;
enough money to go to San Francisco&#13;
and to the art school, where I remained&#13;
two years, meeting with fal/&#13;
success.&#13;
"After going back to Los Angeles&#13;
for a year I decided to go East. 1&#13;
had just enough money to get me ai&#13;
far as Omaha, but I took along my&#13;
entire collection of paintings and&#13;
bronzes and sold them to a private&#13;
collector in that city. He gave me&#13;
$2,000 for the lot, and with that money&#13;
I went to Paris. There I studied at&#13;
the Academie Jullen and Ecole des&#13;
Beaux Arts.—Gutzon Borglum."&#13;
TODAY—Rorglum is the faraoui&#13;
sculptor who was engaged In tho&#13;
herculean task of transforming Stone&#13;
mountain. Georgia, into a memorial&#13;
for the Confederate heroes, by carving&#13;
in relief, on its smooth granite surface,&#13;
figures of General Lee and other&#13;
leaders.&#13;
Borglum's method of accomplishing&#13;
this extraordinary work was highly&#13;
ingenious. A lantern was to throw&#13;
images from slides on the surface of&#13;
the hill at night, the exact-sized Images&#13;
of the figures to be sculptured;&#13;
these images were then to be outlined&#13;
by painters. In the morning workmen&#13;
were to go over these outlines&#13;
with pneumatic stone drills and so&#13;
the figures were to be carved.&#13;
Borglum Is the creator of many&#13;
famous art works, including the celebrated&#13;
figure of the seated Lincoln, In&#13;
Newark. N. J.&#13;

where Doris was studying art. :tt the&#13;
expense of her well-to-do parents,&#13;
while Elizabeth lived in a tiny fiat&#13;
and worked as a stenographer.&#13;
Miss Gray was the sort of a woman&#13;
who would never be quite beautiful,&#13;
as Doris was, but there was more in&#13;
her head than had passed through&#13;
Doris' Highly one in all her life.&#13;
"You are in love again," said Miss&#13;
Gray calmly.&#13;
Doris nodded. "To Charlie Ross,"&#13;
she answered. "We're engaged."&#13;
Elizabeth was unable to repress a&#13;
little sense of pain. It was she who&#13;
had introduced Charlie to Doris.&#13;
Charlie had been quickly Infatuated&#13;
with the empty-headed little girl, who&#13;
represented all that was sacred In his&#13;
eyes. She thought with a pang how&#13;
much he had begun to mean to her&#13;
before he met Doris and ceased coming&#13;
to her apartment. They had discussed&#13;
things together; he had told&#13;
her everything that was in his life, all&#13;
his Ideals. And he had been thrown&#13;
off his balance by Doris, who had&#13;
nothing but beauty and vivacity. She&#13;
knew Doris would never make a good&#13;
wife for Charlie. And the pity was&#13;
that she could do nothing. Time must&#13;
teach them.&#13;
"This Is what I want you to do,"&#13;
said Doris. "He writes me the most&#13;
beautiful love letters. And I—I don't&#13;
know how to answer them."&#13;
"Just be natural, dear," said the&#13;
older woman. "Don't try to say what&#13;
you don't mean. Charlie will come to&#13;
understand."&#13;
"But yon don't understand," said&#13;
Doris plaintively. "He thinks I am&#13;
all sorts of things I am not. He thinks&#13;
I am clever and—and all that. Elizabeth"—&#13;
she used the word when she&#13;
wanted to coax—"won't you write me&#13;
a love letter to Charlie?"&#13;
-My dear child!" faltered Miss&#13;
Gray.&#13;
"Oh, yon must," pleaded Doris. "Or&#13;
else I shall lose him. You don't know&#13;
how much he means to me, and all&#13;
he thinks me which I am not. Please,&#13;
please. Elizabeth."&#13;
"But he will knew It Is not ynu&#13;
speaking In the letter, my dear," protested&#13;
Elizabeth Gray.&#13;
"Please," repeated Doris, sobbing.&#13;
Doris was very winning when she&#13;
meant to he. And so her friend capitulated&#13;
nnd, conscience-stricken, sat&#13;
down to indite a letter to Charlie&#13;
Ross that should Round like Doris and&#13;
yet be what DorlB was not.&#13;
She wrote It from her own heart.&#13;
She spoke of what love means to a&#13;
woman, of all the things that she&#13;
knew and Doris could never know.&#13;
She poured out her heart In that letter,&#13;
and in many others,&#13;
For the first letter brought hack a&#13;
reply that touched her vividly. It&#13;
showed something In the man's nature,&#13;
something Idealistic which even&#13;
Elisabeth Gray had never known existed&#13;
In the man, something to which&#13;
her heart responded as the steel to&#13;
the magnet. And after that the descent&#13;
was easy.&#13;
Letter after letter came to him from&#13;
her pen. "You must not wonder." she&#13;
wrote onre. "that I seem so different&#13;
to you when we meet from what T&#13;
seem to be In my letters. It Is very&#13;
difficult for me to express myself&#13;
face to face."&#13;
"Charlie is devoted," said Doris&#13;
happily one day. "He thinks 1 write&#13;
all those letters, and you know. Elizabeth,&#13;
that they are Incomprehensible&#13;
to me."&#13;
Yes, there were many thlnsrs that&#13;
were incomprehensible to Doris. Elizabeth&#13;
Gray begnn to see that more&#13;
and more clearly as the weeks went&#13;
by. Rut she WRS too far In the&#13;
slough of deception now to be able&#13;
to extricate herself. Passionate letters&#13;
passed between them, and she&#13;
poured out all her longing and all her&#13;
love to this tover who, unknowing&#13;
whence the letters came, could never&#13;
be hers.&#13;
"He 1« so serious." pouted Doris one&#13;
day. "And he talks of such heavy&#13;
things! They make my head'ache.&#13;
And T have to pretend to understand&#13;
—because of this silly plot. Why did&#13;
you ever let me into It, Elizabeth?"&#13;
This was Elizabeth's thanks. She&#13;
smiled; she could afford to smile, for&#13;
she knew from Charlie's letters that&#13;
she held his heart absolutely, although&#13;
he never dreamed of It. Bat&#13;
that night she prayed for his sake that&#13;
he might not marry Doris.&#13;
The prayer seemed to be strangely&#13;
answered. For the next week Doris&#13;
came to her, after a longer interval&#13;
than usual. She sat down at her feet&#13;
and began patting her hand.&#13;
"What la I t D o r i s r asked Elizabeth.&#13;
1 don't lore Charlie," Doris burst&#13;
out. "It was ail a mistake. I nave&#13;
found the man I love, and he Loves&#13;
me. So you will not have any more&#13;
of those horrid letters to write. He&#13;
Isn't the sort of man who is above&#13;
me. He is Krank BewletL"&#13;
The actor'.'"&#13;
"Yea," answered Doris meekly.&#13;
"What will Charlie say?"&#13;
"I want you to w m e and teii him,"&#13;
answered Doris. "1'romise uie. You&#13;
know, ynu got me into tins trouble,&#13;
Elizabeth, and you wusi get me out—&#13;
you must 1"&#13;
Elizabeth sal down trial night with&#13;
a hea\y heart and wrote 10 Charlie.&#13;
Doris was going home; she loved another;&#13;
he must forget her and never&#13;
write to her nor try 10 see her again.&#13;
She did not sleep that night, and&#13;
went lo work with a heavy heart next&#13;
day.&#13;
That evening Charlie called, and&#13;
she was totally unprepared for It-&#13;
He came in with a while face.&#13;
"I haven't been to see you since I&#13;
met Doris," he said. "1 can't forgive&#13;
myself for neglecting an old friend In&#13;
my happiness. n&gt;i I supposed It to be.&#13;
Do you know -know--?"&#13;
Elizabeth nodded. She could not&#13;
manage to utter the trivial sympathy&#13;
in her heart.&#13;
"Why did she do it?" he demanded.&#13;
"We love each other. If ynu could&#13;
hfive seen the letters she wrote rne!&#13;
They were not the letters of a foolUh&#13;
girl. There is something I can't an&#13;
derstand in this. The man she thinks&#13;
she loves now is —well, not the sort ot&#13;
man that girl would love."&#13;
He forgot himself in his despair. He&#13;
paced the room. Suddenly he stopped&#13;
before Elizabeth's desk, Elizabeth&#13;
sprang Up. He was looking at a halffinished&#13;
tetter she had been writing&#13;
when he came in.&#13;
He turned and faced her. "What&#13;
does this mean?" he asked, looking at&#13;
the handwriting. "Doris has be«n&#13;
here this evening. See. the Ink Is&#13;
scarcely dry ! She has been here, and&#13;
she Is here now."&#13;
"No, Charlie." said Elizabeth helplessly.&#13;
"You don't understand. Our&#13;
writing Is very much alike."&#13;
"I have never seen her writing," lie&#13;
answered, with slow suspicion. "But&#13;
I know that the writing of that letter&#13;
is hers."&#13;
"It isn't. Charlie. I—"&#13;
"Then you wrote those letters at&#13;
her dictation !_ She showed you my&#13;
letters and dictated her answers to&#13;
you. So they filtered through two&#13;
persons—all those floe professions of&#13;
love and eternal loyalty T he said bitterly,&#13;
Elizabeth did not know who*. J f ^ L&#13;
say. And she solved Her p r o M t s * m y&#13;
a woman's privileged way by afttfcfcng&#13;
down Into her chair and bursting Into&#13;
bitter tears.&#13;
She looked up at him. "Go, new,&#13;
please!" she sobbed. " Y e * V n l n k anything&#13;
you please, I wrote 'them for&#13;
Doris, it you like. What does It matter,&#13;
now that your trust has been&#13;
betrayed by a heartless girl?"&#13;
He stood irresolutely In the doorway:&#13;
then he came forward to where&#13;
she sat, her head bowed on her arms,&#13;
striving to still the sobs that rent her&#13;
as she thought of the bitterness that&#13;
had overtaken their two lives,&#13;
"It means a good deal," he said&#13;
"Did you—did you help her to compose&#13;
those letters? And were some&#13;
of those thoughts yours? Believe me,&#13;
I see her In her true light now, and&#13;
it seems to me Incredible that she&#13;
could ever have written to me as she&#13;
did. The woman who wrote those letters&#13;
was a woman of a soul far above&#13;
Doris'—"&#13;
"Hush ! Do not think unkindly of&#13;
her," said Elizabeth softly, raising her&#13;
streaming face. "It Is all over now.&#13;
She would never have understood&#13;
what love means."&#13;
"Yon Inspired them." he persisted,&#13;
doggedly.&#13;
"I wrote them a!!. Charlie," said&#13;
Elizabeth, rising and facing him. "She&#13;
was afraid you would look down on&#13;
her. She loved you In her way— remember&#13;
that. She Is only a child.&#13;
She asked me to help her keep your&#13;
love, and I wrote them."&#13;
He held her hands. "T thnnk God,"&#13;
he answered gravely, "that at least I&#13;
can keep my faith In women."&#13;
And he was gone. But Elizabeth&#13;
Oray's heart was singing. For she&#13;
knew that he would come hank, nnd&#13;
that her love for him would find Its&#13;
reward—some day.&#13;

Is He a Materialist?&#13;
£^•3&#13;
Heavy and thick writing with lettert&#13;
low above the line indicates one who&#13;
lives mostly on the physical p'ana-&#13;
He may be emphatic, firm, and successful&#13;
in a material way, but if tin&#13;
writing is ragged and disorderly, with&#13;
a pronounced slant to the right, thert&#13;
will be sensuality.&#13;
The very idealistic, spiritual and&#13;
visionary person writes with a thin.&#13;
light line, with letters high above the&#13;
line. Such ^may be too impractical&#13;
however for their success on this&#13;
plane. We should look for balance&#13;
between physical and spiritual quail&#13;
ties. The heavy, thick writer may reveal&#13;
many intuitive and Inspirational&#13;
qualities elsewhere in his writing&#13;
sur*h as long generous terminals ta&#13;
his word endings, etc., while the tola,&#13;
light line writer may show strength&#13;
and emphasis in firmly crossed t, bars,&#13;
heavier down strokes, and many other&#13;
signs of will-power, to be learned&#13;
later.&#13;
The healthy balance between things&#13;
we term spiritual and what we call&#13;
material Is necessary for a well&#13;
rounded character. A great spiritual&#13;
teacher says, "If we cannot prove a&#13;
spiritual law on earth we cannot prove&#13;
it anywhere." The dreamer who does&#13;
not apply his life to the earth Is Just&#13;
as much amiss as the pure materialist&#13;
who ignores his spiritual self.&#13;
la H e I d e a l i s t i c ?&#13;
When the letters like d and t reach&#13;
high toward the line above and the&#13;
t bars slant upward as well as the&#13;
writing, then we will find a writer&#13;
w h o Is ldi&#13;

capitals will be&#13;
simply formed.&#13;
^0 There will be a&#13;
s u g g e s t i o n&#13;
about the page&#13;
of a desire on&#13;
the part of the&#13;
w r i t e r to express&#13;
In his writing as he would ID&#13;
his life, the best and most unusual&#13;
way. Capitals will look much like&#13;
printed ones.&#13;
Loops of l's will appear slender and&#13;
reach high above the line. Lowe*&#13;
loops of the f will be small and the&#13;
upper will be large in proportion.&#13;
Writing will be medium in weight or&#13;
light-—never heavy.&#13;
T bars are sometimes found&#13;
the upright altogether and not t&lt;&#13;
Ing It at all. This is one of the sureaV&#13;
signs of detecting Idealism In the&#13;
writer.&#13;
The general appearance of the page&#13;
of a writer of this nature Is a pleasing&#13;
one.&#13;

DR. LLOYD W. McKlM&#13;
The followuijj^itu^ry of D?.V,L.&#13;
H. McKim who was accidentjy killed/&#13;
by an automobile on the Webbervtfle&#13;
road on the n l g ^ p f Dec. 10, is takien&#13;
fiom the StockWptge Brief-Sun arid&#13;
is printed by request.&#13;
The sudden death of Dr! McKim has&#13;
called forth a host Of sympathy from&#13;
all who knew him. There are times in&#13;
our lives when language seems imperfect&#13;
to express the feelings of our&#13;
hearts . The four years of Dr. Mc&amp;ms^&#13;
service in this community have&#13;
brought to all of us an evidence of his&#13;
skill as a physician and his worth as a&#13;
man. He possessed a great power in&#13;
the diagnosis of disease. Willi this&#13;
skill which seemed to him a sixth&#13;
sense, he seemed to understand&#13;
cases which might baffle others. He&#13;
was a persistent student, and might&#13;
often be found delving into his books&#13;
and magazines. He said one day to the&#13;
writer :Medicine is not a finished&#13;
science. It behoves everyone who has&#13;
anything to do with medicine to add&#13;
to the science and to help finish it&#13;
With this spirit he wrought his task&#13;
He lived and wrought expecting that&#13;
new light was about to break from the&#13;
the truth he loved.&#13;
The service he rendered to the sick&#13;
in our community can not be told.&#13;
He was diligent in his work. He was a&#13;
lover and servant of his fellow men.&#13;
There was a charm about Dr. Mel&#13;
and his personality that cannot&#13;
easily told. There is something a!&#13;
the medical profession that m&#13;
somes of its followers pewit&#13;
but Dr. McKim was always a&#13;
optimist He always «Su an int.&#13;
of an atmosphere of1 p e a s a n t&#13;
whenever he entered the i &amp; k&#13;
He gained.the convene* «f&#13;
looked to him f o r s o l p . .&#13;
With the spirit of the ,&#13;
he served hia\4ay laid generation. He&#13;
[considered t h a ^ b e &gt; a s a debtor to&#13;
' humanity. How mfy he £frf&lt;t t h e debt&#13;
many of us can testify. HcjUved for&#13;
the best thing* in life. He wae a follower&#13;
of the drftte master ist golden&#13;
works and deeds. After sB the g r e i f&#13;
legacy he has leftus isjfca "~&#13;

THE BLIND TIE MAN&#13;
Many Pinckney; people received&#13;
boxes of neckties from Paunee Bill&#13;
the Blind Tie Man, of St. Louis, Mo.&#13;
a few^veeks before Christmas. These&#13;
were accompanied by the request&#13;
for the recipient to please send one&#13;
dollar if he kept the ties. This stunt&#13;
was worked in nearly every town in&#13;
this section and the following article&#13;
in regard to it is taken from the Business&#13;
Farmer.&#13;
The police officials of the city&#13;
where his business is located, St. Louis&#13;
Missouri, advise that he is not entitled&#13;
to any consideration whatever and no&#13;
consideration should be paid to his&#13;
communications. Also it is understood&#13;
that he is conducting an extensive enterprise&#13;
with the backing of business&#13;
interests. It has even been said that&#13;
a large knitting mill is using him as a&#13;
means of disponing of its output. He&#13;
stated to the St. Louis Better Business&#13;
Bureau that he is not in need of&#13;
charity and promised to eliminate «11&#13;
reference to his blindness from his&#13;
advertisements, a promise which he&#13;
apparently, has -not fulfilled to date&#13;

ABOUT THE FISH LAW&#13;
The game and fish laws of this state&#13;
are a complex problem to many people..&#13;
The public does not know&#13;
whether they have a right to fish or&#13;
not. The state conservation departhas&#13;
sent out notice that each fisherman&#13;
could use five lines through the&#13;
ice up to January I. Fish houses are&#13;
also permitted for line fishing only,&#13;
no spears being allowed. After January&#13;
first but one line will be allowed.&#13;

COUNTRFEIT FIVE DOLLAR BILL&#13;
A warning has been issued to the&#13;
public regarding counterfeit five dollar&#13;
bills in circulation in certain sections&#13;
of the state. One dollar bills&#13;
have been cleverly raised to five, but&#13;
the counterfeiters, with careless disregard&#13;
for the tradition about Washington,&#13;
neglected to change the picture&#13;
to one of Lincoln, which usually&#13;
adorns $5. In other respects the&#13;
counterfeit bills are said to show real&#13;
artistry. The numerala in the corners&#13;
have been changed, the border altered&#13;
to correspond with the five dollar denomination,&#13;
and the lettering jammed&#13;
in a barely deetable manner.To cover&#13;
another discrepancy—the large combination&#13;
of numerals and letters next&#13;
to the picture—were partly torn and a&#13;
strip of musilaged paper glued on it&#13;
as if to prevent further'tearing.&#13;

PLAYING FAIR&#13;
NOW Wttlter was tx very stluKy little&#13;
boy. He hated to give away&#13;
Anything. If he had soiue peuules In his&#13;
packets and the other boys weie goiQg&#13;
to chip In together and get some&#13;
Candy or marbles Walter would go&#13;
Along with them but he would try to&#13;
pretend he hadn't any money so tie&#13;
jrouidn't have to spend his. Of&#13;
Coarse, If he couldn't succeed In this&#13;
he'd spend a very little. Walter was&#13;
just like his father always had been.&#13;
Bo It was not altogether his fault.&#13;
H e had been taught that the more&#13;
held onto money the more one&#13;
• I Dw&gt;'t Know You—What Is Your&#13;
Name?"&#13;
had and he had been taught, too, that&#13;
*Jk* less he spent the less would be&#13;
:ted of him.&#13;
ASx) he had found that this was very&#13;
But, of course, he knew nothing&#13;
SJS aft ef the Joy of giving and the Joy&#13;
4jf s t a l i n g and some of those particu-&#13;
Joys.&#13;
had been a time when his&#13;
ither ted said to him when they were&#13;
a contribution in church for&#13;
thy cause:&#13;
,tf the plate is held so It&#13;
lit SSry embarrassing If you&#13;
A4 so everyone would notsjt&#13;
a little something in&#13;
ean keep from giving&#13;
l»1ng particularly noHced.&#13;
"will be that much richer,&#13;
s*M • Mate a nt-&#13;
»t»Hgl&#13;
USUI&#13;
as* ee»*i effete tt this * * •&#13;
and they don't hold It before you long.&#13;
"Have your money ready In case&#13;
you have to give, but don't give if you&#13;
can help It. They may think you're&#13;
giving to other charities and can't alford&#13;
this, too. They often have nice&#13;
kind thoughts like that."&#13;
That had been the way In widen&#13;
Walter had been brought up, so one&#13;
can hardly blame Walter. Yet he was&#13;
a very seitl^fi little boy as a result and&#13;
It grew to be so that no one wanted&#13;
him around. He wanted everyone to&#13;
do everything for him. He wanted to&#13;
do nothing at all for anyone except&#13;
himself.&#13;
He had no idea of what the spirit&#13;
of giving meant. No Idea at all. Now&#13;
Peter (liiome had heard of Walter und&#13;
Peter (Jnome felt it was a pity that a&#13;
little boy who would otherwise be a&#13;
nice little boy should be allowed to&#13;
grow up Into a miser or very mean&#13;
person.&#13;
So one time, late, late at night,&#13;
Peter Gnome paid a call on Walter.&#13;
Walter was smiling to himself for&#13;
Walter had Just been thinking of what&#13;
luck he had had in not having to&#13;
spend anything for ever and ever so&#13;
long but in getting everyone to do&#13;
for him.&#13;
And as he was smiling to himself&#13;
along came Peter Gnome.&#13;
"Hello, Walter," said Peter.&#13;
"I don't know you," said Walter,&#13;
•'but what Is your name?"&#13;
"Peter Gnome. I've come to play."&#13;
"Oh yes," said Walter, "and have&#13;
you some marbles?"&#13;
"No," 'said Peter Gnome, "but you&#13;
have."&#13;
Walter looked quite uncomfortable.&#13;
If he played with his marbles they&#13;
might get lost.&#13;
"And I'd like some candy," said&#13;
Peter Gnome. "I heard you hadn't&#13;
spent a penny for days and days and&#13;
I thought it was a good time to begin."&#13;
Walter looked very miserable.&#13;
"And I'd like to have a game of ball,&#13;
too, but we'll have to use your ball.&#13;
I didn't bring mine."&#13;
Walter looked astonished.&#13;
"I don't know that I can play Just&#13;
now," Walter said at last.&#13;
"No," said Peter Gnome, "and you&#13;
won't be playing very much from now&#13;
on except all by yourself if you don't&#13;
change your ways,&#13;
"The way I've talked to you isn't&#13;
half as dreadful as the way you've&#13;
acted with the other boys—you want&#13;
all their things to share but you will&#13;
share nothing of your own. And&#13;
you've become such a raiser that everyone&#13;
is gittlng tired of you.&#13;
"Learn to share,&#13;
That's playing fair!"&#13;
And Peter Gnome was gone!&#13;
But Walter remembered what he&#13;
had said.&#13;

I WAS&#13;
TWENTY-ONE&#13;
BY JOSEPH K.AYE&#13;
AT 21: James D. Lacey, Leading&#13;
Lumber Man, Was a Druggist.&#13;
&lt;&lt; A T ABOUT eighteen I got a Job&#13;
^*&gt; in a Grand Rapids drug store&#13;
which paid me seven dollars a week;&#13;
every week I got my seven dollars I&#13;
peeled off three and added them to&#13;
some savings I already had. When I&#13;
got a raise to eight dollars, I peeled&#13;
off four and when my pay rose to ten&#13;
dollars I peeled off five. So that by&#13;
the time I was twenty-one I got&#13;
enough money saved up to buy a half&#13;
interest In a drug store of my own.&#13;
"But it was a bad time to buy. A&#13;
new tariff law went into effect soon&#13;
after taking the duties off many kinds&#13;
of merchandise and Immediately our&#13;
stock became worth only about half&#13;
what we paid for it. We managed to&#13;
sell the store, though at a considerable&#13;
loss, and I went on the road as&#13;
a salesman.—James D. Lacey."&#13;
TODAY: Mr. Lacey Is one of the&#13;
most noted lumber men In this country,&#13;
with offices In Chicago, Seattle&#13;
and New York, and a trade that extends&#13;
to all parts of South America.&#13;
A peculiar phase of Mr. Lacey's career&#13;
is that he got into the lumber&#13;
business after he had made a comparative&#13;
success as a drug-store owner.&#13;
At the age of thirty-one he had already&#13;
saved some $30,000 from the&#13;
profits of a drug store, when he&#13;
thought of lumber as a better paying&#13;
proposition for him.&#13;

WHY of&#13;
SUPERSTITIONS&#13;
B y H . 1 R V 1 N Q K J N Q&#13;
WEDDING RINGS, STIES&#13;
IF YOC want to cure a sty just take&#13;
a wedding ring—your own or a&#13;
friend's will do—and holding the ring&#13;
In your fingers reach your left hand&#13;
around over your head and rub the&#13;
sty with the ring. The writer stumbled&#13;
upon this superstition the other&#13;
day. A domestic in the family had a&#13;
sty. A neighbor told her, "Oh, that's&#13;
easy enough to cure," loaned her the&#13;
necessary wedding ring and showed&#13;
her how to work the charm. The next&#13;
day the sty was better and rapidly&#13;
disappeared, thus making another convert&#13;
to the magic folklore of the ancients.&#13;
Upon inquiry this sty cure was&#13;
found to be a common superstition.&#13;
The basis of the superstition is, evidently,&#13;
that very old magic srmbollsm&#13;
which is attached to the ring nnd&#13;
which has been variously explained&#13;
by many learned writers, hut never&#13;
quite satisfactorily. Possibly some of&#13;
the explanations given are correct but&#13;
It looks as if primitive man had something&#13;
in the "back of his mind" with&#13;
regard to the ring which hss been&#13;
lost to his descendants. "For who&#13;
hath known the ways of time or trodden&#13;
behind his feet?" f&#13;
That the most sacred sort of a ring&#13;
to us moderns Is a wedding ring explains&#13;
why in curing the sty a wedding&#13;
ring should he used. There Is&#13;
more thnn a hint of sun worship In&#13;
the superstition under consideration&#13;
In that the wedding rlnr is of gold,&#13;
the color of the sun nnd round like&#13;
the sun's disc. Also the tnklnc of the&#13;
ring in the left hand, and the movement&#13;
of the hand over the head from&#13;
left to right, or sunwise—the "ceremonial&#13;
circuit"—emphasizes the sun&#13;
" m o t i f In the "cure." There Is a&#13;
lonely obelisk In Central park whose&#13;
gilded apex still catches and reflects&#13;
the morning light as it did when It&#13;
stood before the temple of Ra at HelU&#13;
opolis and sent back the beams of the&#13;
rising day across the desert sands&#13;
while within the fane the priests, moving&#13;

T h e difference between a cloth coat&#13;
this season and a fur coat Is that the&#13;
cloth coat has » little less fur than&#13;
the all-fur coat observes a fashion&#13;
writer in the Kansas O t y Stur. The&#13;
long stole collar*, the deep shawl collar,&#13;
cavalier cutfs. and panels of fur&#13;
on the skirts all bring the quota of&#13;
fur (and let it also be said the price)&#13;
Of a fur-trimmed cloth cuut very close&#13;
to that of the fur coat. The beauty&#13;
of the cloth coat trimmed in fur has&#13;
been brought almost to a state of perfection&#13;
by the designers. &lt;Jreens&#13;
trimmed with rich brown fur, red&#13;
coats with collars of skunk, fvx scarfs&#13;
on slim wrap-around coats, black caracul&#13;
on black broadcloth all testify to&#13;
the perfection of blended turs and fabrics&#13;
or to the use of contrasting effects.&#13;
The coat silhouette is by no means&#13;
confined to the wrap-around effects;&#13;
the*\ip-e coat is smart. So is the coat&#13;
that has fullness above the waistline&#13;
and confined at snugly fitted hips.&#13;
The black coat and the red dress is&#13;
a smart ensemble, so Is that which&#13;
takes contrast into consideration. The&#13;
green coat, green dress and green hat&#13;
are perfectly blended in this season's&#13;
mode, so are the browns and the tans&#13;
and other fashionable shades.&#13;
Natural lynx, pastel and white&#13;
foxes, wolverine, leopard, ermine, mink&#13;
and sable., are accented. Evening&#13;
wraps of metallic brocades or velvet&#13;
also added their quota of fur?, some&#13;
elaborate styles being augmented by&#13;
rich all-over embroideries and borders&#13;
of fringe.&#13;
Fur wraps are often on dolman&#13;
lines. Long stoles of sable, wrapped&#13;
several times around the throat, are&#13;
Interesting additions to several of the&#13;
costumes.&#13;
Fringe, often used In sections headed&#13;
by squares of embroidery, was important,&#13;
and Jeweled pins, bowknots,&#13;
or ornaments added brilliance to many&#13;
gowns, posed at hip, shoulder, or at&#13;
the center front. Flowers, large&#13;

Late Fashion Bulletins&#13;
From Paris and New York&#13;
The new geometric influence is as*&#13;
suming increasing importance. Many&#13;
of the latest Paris creations, not only&#13;
in sport wear and daytime frocks but&#13;
in evening gowns by Vionnet, Chanel&#13;
and other leading French houses, are&#13;
sharply geometric both in cut and design,&#13;
according to advices from the&#13;
Paris bureau of Harper's Bazar. The&#13;
New York shops this season show&#13;
widely varied examples of this mode.&#13;
Many of the imaginative beaded&#13;
motifs used on the new evening gowns&#13;
are applied in geometric configuration.&#13;
The sport ensemble is being featured&#13;
both In Paris and New York,&#13;
and may be expected to continue.&#13;
Patou, Vlonnett and Chanel are among&#13;
the Paris houses emphasizing this&#13;
most serviceable costume. In fact,&#13;
the pport movement continues to be&#13;
an important fashion factor, affecting&#13;
all phases of the daytime mode.&#13;
The top-heavy silhouette, In Its&#13;
many manifestations, Is ^claiming an&#13;
Important place In this season's mode.&#13;
Martial and Armand achieve this&#13;
shoulder accent in a sleeveless gown&#13;
by means of a short cape.&#13;
Low-backed evening gowns,&#13;
Introduced from leading Parts&#13;
have become a definite BOSS ts&gt; ska&#13;
mode, according to Harper's S a s a r .&#13;
All Important New York stetos are&#13;
preparing to show taHwetoed models&#13;
through the season.&#13;
Bouffant skirts for the evening*&#13;
gown are meeting occasional favor. A&#13;
wide, draped hip-girdle Is being sometimes&#13;
used.&#13;
The sport Influence that has so&#13;
strongly dominated daytime apparel Is&#13;
beginning to show Itself here and&#13;
there In evening wear. Several authoritative&#13;
New York houses are&#13;
showing evening gowns suggestive of&#13;
the two-piece sport frock.&#13;
A new version of the bolero is rapidly&#13;
gaining In popularity for the coming&#13;
season and is considered extremely&#13;
Important. Drecoll sponsors the&#13;
long bolero which is favored for daytime&#13;
wear.&#13;

Why Europeans Dress&#13;
Better Than Americans&#13;
Why is the average European wonv&#13;
an better dressed than the average&#13;
American woman?&#13;
In the opinion of Baron de Meyer,&#13;
world-famous fashion authority, It i s&#13;
because American women dress for&#13;
their men while European women&#13;
dress chiefly for other women.&#13;
Writing from Parts for Harper's&#13;
Bazaar, Baron de Meyer s a y s :&#13;
"American women principally dress&#13;
to please their men. American men,&#13;
however, never analyse a woman's&#13;
gown. They are not Interested In why&#13;
a dress Is smart If the general appearance&#13;
Is smart.&#13;
"The majority of Paris women do&#13;
not dress to court masculine admiration&#13;
only, but principally to be appreciated&#13;
(shall we say envied?) by&#13;
other well-dressed women. Women&#13;
being more difficult to satisfy tfcss&#13;
men, the ladles of Paris are consequently&#13;
living op to mach higher&#13;
standards. Therefore, they are mach&#13;
better dressed,**&#13;
Another reason given by D e Meyer&#13;
for the European women's superior&#13;
elegance la that while American women&#13;
"only actively think of new clothes&#13;
twice a year, European women order&#13;
few d o t h e s s t s time hut replenish&#13;
their wardrobe ail the year round.&#13;
They are, therefore, a l w s y s op to the&#13;

TEXAS TOWN CLAIMS&#13;
MANY DISTINCTIONS&#13;
Only County Seat Without&#13;
Jail, U Boast.&#13;
K&#13;
Lefors, Texaa.—This quaint town In&#13;
northeast Texas has so many distinctions&#13;
they must be enumerated In&#13;
some kind of sequence. Among these&#13;
are the following:&#13;
Lefors Is the smallest county seat 1B&#13;
Texas.&#13;
Lefors boasts that It Is the only&#13;
county seat without a Jail. The Jail&#13;
has been leased to a neighboring town.&#13;
Though located on an otherwise&#13;
treeless plain, the town is hard by a&#13;
forest of giant cotton woods.&#13;
This fact leads to another distincjf&#13;
tion. The town has the only saw mill&#13;
In a territory larger than half a&#13;
dozen northern' or eastern states.&#13;
There are no other saw mills out on&#13;
the plains because there is no wood to&#13;
•aw. &gt; .&#13;
The water wells are only nine feet&#13;
deep in Lefors.&#13;
But perhaps the most Interesting&#13;
facts are these: The cottonwood trees&#13;
fetar grapes and virtually all the resits&#13;
drink grape juice the year&#13;
1, and although fifty years old&#13;
v£felt town's cemetery contains only&#13;
Jgtp graves.&#13;
Jtttjr the town Is the Valley of Lemt^&#13;
t formed by a branch of the Red&#13;
river, which separates Texas from&#13;
Oklahoma. This valley gives the impression&#13;
that It is a corner of Japan&#13;
or an Imaginary kingdom in a dream.&#13;
While the plains may be swept by cold&#13;
winds, and the frost may creep down&#13;
from the north, the Valley of Lefors&#13;
Is warm and cozy behind Its rock wall&#13;
shelter.&#13;
The towering cottonwoods do not&#13;
actually bear graphs, but they support&#13;
the wild grape vines that entwine&#13;
them and hang down like veils. Here&#13;
in protected dells grow fruits of all&#13;
kinds, and the cherry blossoms enhance&#13;
the Nipponese picture.&#13;
From t h e wild grape vines, a great&#13;
crop of grapes is harvested every year.&#13;
The juice of the grape is found la&#13;
every home hereabouts.&#13;
When a man wants a well here be&#13;
procures a post hole digger, bores&#13;
down about nine feet and obtains&#13;
clear, sparkling water.&#13;
For a generation Lefors has gone&#13;
on drinking its grape Juice and sawing&#13;
its wood, and now oil is beginning&#13;
to touch it with tnagto of life. The&#13;
oil boom in the Panhandle Is reaching&#13;
Into Gray county, of which Lefors is&#13;
the exact geographical center.&#13;
The town with Its dreamy valley 1s&#13;
perking up. The cottonwoods aire&#13;

W ashln gtoa.—Tfca&#13;
motb washed up on&#13;
the shores of Florida&#13;
have been brought to the St&#13;
Institution by Dr. J. W. Gldley. m tfce&#13;
result of an excavation at Venice, f t a ,&#13;
The skeleton, though not ooouyle**&#13;
is the best yet discovered oa the west&#13;
coast of Florida. All the teeth were&#13;
found, as well as the complete feet&#13;
structure, the lower jaw, a tusk and&#13;
a shoulder blade and part of the vertebra.&#13;
Some of the bones were brakes a a 4&#13;
in the surface of the breaks harnaclaa,&#13;
which are now fossilized, had attached&#13;
themselves. From these facts&#13;
Doctor Gldley deduced that the bones&#13;
had been washed up oe the old shore&#13;
of the Gulf of Mexico, though this 1«&#13;
now four miles Inland froca the present&#13;
coast Tbey must hive been&#13;

The fofiall was discovered toy the&#13;
Venice company, a subsidiary of the&#13;
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,&#13;
which immediately offered It to the&#13;
Smithsonian institution as a gift. The&#13;
company's co-operation enabled Doctor&#13;
Gldley to rescue a s much of the skeleton&#13;
as possible.&#13;
"This discovery," said Doctor Gldley,&#13;
"seems to be a Columbia mammoth,&#13;
types of which have been found&#13;

Toronto, Ont.—Lake Ontario, the&#13;
Cinderella of inland seas, rejoices In&#13;
the prospect of an early emancipation&#13;
by the opening of the new Welland&#13;
canal&#13;
In every port on the great lakes&#13;
shipping men and others are discussing&#13;
what will happen In the new era&#13;
to be inaugurated by the canal, which&#13;
in some respects rivals Panama. There&#13;
is much difference of opinion, but&#13;
whatever happens will be an improvement&#13;
for the ports located on Lake&#13;
Ontario.&#13;
Here is one of the finest bodies of&#13;
water In the world, 200 miles long by&#13;
40 wide. Surrounded on all sides by&#13;
rich country and teeming cities, It&#13;
ought to be alive with commerce. But&#13;
the ordinary view of Lake Ontario la&#13;
as lifeless as the picture of the "painted&#13;
ship upon a painted ocean."&#13;
Imprisoned by Fails, Rapid*.&#13;
Nature played a mean trick on Lake&#13;
Ontario. It made her the connecting&#13;
link between two of the most famous&#13;
rivers In the world—the Niagara and&#13;
the S t Lawrence—but the falls of&#13;
Niagara and the rapids of the St.&#13;
Lawrence, which millions of people&#13;
have come from the ends of the earth&#13;
to see, have isolated and Imprisoned&#13;
Ontario.&#13;
Great ocean liners come up the SJ.&#13;
Lawrence to Montreal and stop. Great&#13;
liners of the inland 6eas cruise Superior,&#13;
Huron, Michigan and Erie, but&#13;
they stop when they approach the&#13;
mouth of the Niagara river.&#13;
It Is true both the Niagara and the&#13;
S t Lawrence have been canalized, but&#13;
the ships than can be accommodated&#13;
are small and the trips through the&#13;
locks tiresome.&#13;
The new Welland canal will be revolutionary&#13;
in its capacity. Instead of&#13;
a draft of 12 or 14 feet it will provide&#13;
a draft of 25 feet, which can be&#13;
deepened to 30 feet Instead of 27&#13;
locks, it will have only 7 tocks, and 3&#13;
of these will be double locks in night,&#13;
enabling boats to ascend and descend.&#13;
Instead of 12 to 18 hours now required&#13;
to get through the canal the&#13;
passage wil be made in 8 hours or&#13;
less. Ships of 12,000 tons, good-sized&#13;
ocean liners, will be able to make the&#13;
Niagara detour with ease..&#13;
Ontario Ports Looking Up.&#13;
A great milling industry has grown&#13;
up at Buffalo, N. Y., and Port Colborne,&#13;
Ont., 'because all the larger&#13;
grain ships from the head of the lakes&#13;
were stopped by Niagara. Now all&#13;
the ports .at the eastern end of Lake&#13;
&lt;intarlo ami getting ready to capture&#13;
or at least 6hare in this trade. The&#13;
large boats will be able to get down&#13;
the S t Lawrence as far as Prescott,&#13;
Omt, and Ogdensburg, N. Y., but as&#13;
£he channel through the Thousand islands&#13;
i s tricky the ports of Kingston,&#13;
iijkat* and Oswego, N. Y., are more&#13;
j t a e r a l l y favored. Kingston, one of&#13;
the most ancient cities in Canada, is&#13;
preparing for a great revival.&#13;
Montreal also hopes to benefit&#13;
Freight rates" for the all-Canadian&#13;
roufco will, it is hoped, be lowered&#13;
((through as to this there is some&#13;
doubt) and Montreal will be able to&#13;
compete on more favorable terms with&#13;
the Atlantic American ports. In any&#13;
case, AIo.ntr.eal hopes to become a&#13;
great milling center.&#13;
Toronto, in anticipation of the canals,&#13;
has spent $20,000,000 on a harbor&#13;
development and even If the&#13;
achievement -of ocean port status is&#13;
delayed it hopes by more accessible&#13;
coal and ore supplies to establish on&#13;
its harbor front large new industries.&#13;
By the end of the present season&#13;
80 per ceat of the new Welland canal&#13;
undertaking will be completed. By&#13;
1930 at the iatest It will be ready for&#13;
traffic.&#13;

Army Made 1,000 Flights&#13;
Over Airway* in Year&#13;
Washington.—During the last fiscal&#13;
year army airplanes made approximately&#13;
L000 flights over the eastern&#13;
division of the model airways from&#13;
Washington to Dayton. Commercial&#13;
pilots also took advantage of the facilities&#13;
offered on the model airways,&#13;
recognizing the greater safety and&#13;
ease of air travel over an organized&#13;
and Identified route.&#13;
Planes utilizing this route numbered&#13;
1,213, of which 959 belonged to&#13;
the army, 14 to the navy, 14 to the&#13;
marine corps and 68 to commercial&#13;
concerns.. In addition 166 planes flew&#13;
over the route but did not stop.&#13;
Sea and Straits&#13;
Getting Much Wanner&#13;
Dutch Harbor, Alaska.—Bering sea&#13;
and straits connecting the Arctic&#13;
ocean are warming up, Icebergs diminishing&#13;
in size and fish ordinarily&#13;
fearful of the cold migrating farther&#13;
north, declare crews of whalers just&#13;
back from the frigid regions. Seals&#13;
and walrus have found the water of&#13;
Bering sea too warm and were scarce&#13;
except in the Arctic ocean this last&#13;
season, while whales appeared more&#13;
numerous in the polar waters than&#13;
along t h e Alaskan coast. Herring,&#13;
smelt and salmon, rarely frequenting&#13;
Bering straits, have taken the old&#13;
sealing grounds, say the whalers.&#13;

Ogden, Utah- Boasting that she has&#13;
tht largest posterity of any woman&#13;
In the country, Mrts. Sarah Jane Taylor&#13;
of Harrisvllle recently celebrated&#13;
her ninety-second birthday. She has&#13;
308 living descendants, who include&#13;
8 children, 50 grandchildren, 1SD greatgrandchildren&#13;
and 01 great-greatgrandchildren.&#13;
She has challenged any woman in&#13;
the country to show a larger number&#13;
of lineal descendants and Is anxious&#13;
to correspond with any such woman.&#13;
Mrs. Taylor hus been married twice,&#13;
the first time when she was only sixteen.&#13;
The marriage was with Bailey&#13;
Lake, a fellow Mormon convert whom&#13;
the young girl met on her way to&#13;
Utah in 1860. They settled in Ogden&#13;
where four children were born.&#13;
When the youngest was stil! a baby&#13;
Brigham Young pressed Mr. I^ake into&#13;
service and sent him to Idaho to&#13;
spread the Mormon gospel among the&#13;
Indians. With the other Mormon elders&#13;
at Fort Lemhi, Lake was attacked&#13;
by Indians. The little garrison,&#13;
besieged, sent Lake as a messenger&#13;
for help. He was ambushed&#13;
and killed In the Malad mountains.&#13;
A few years later his widow was&#13;
married to the late Pleasant Greea&#13;
Taylor. Six children, four of them&#13;
still living, were born from this union.&#13;
Mrs. Taylor was born in Port Gibson,&#13;
Miss., November 12, 1834. She&#13;
has the distinction of being one of the&#13;
few remaining Mormons who crossed&#13;
the plains In oxcarts in the early&#13;
fifties. She was among the religious&#13;
followers who left the northern part&#13;
of the state and went south when&#13;
General Johnston's army came to Utah&#13;
to subdue Brigham Young.&#13;

Eat in Darkness as&#13;
Health Aid, Says Doctor&#13;
London.—With so much stress being&#13;
laid on the virtues of artificial&#13;
sunlight, special Interest attaches te&#13;
the announcement, made by a prominent&#13;
London doctor, that we do not&#13;
sufficiently consider the health value&#13;
of darkness.&#13;
The authority state* that In his&#13;
opinion many of the Ills that have&#13;
their origin in digestive troubles a r e&#13;
traceable to the too lavish use of light&#13;
at meals. Brilliant lighting, he asserts,&#13;
Is harmful in dining rooms, restaurants&#13;
and other places where&#13;
meals are partaken.&#13;
Our digestive processes, on the perfect&#13;
working of which human health&#13;
and happiness so largely depend, a r t&#13;
interfered with by the extra stimulant&#13;
provided by garish lighting. T%e demands&#13;
made on the senses by such&#13;
factors as bright lights and arresting&#13;
sounds mean that blood is drawn&#13;
from the stomach to the brain and&#13;
muscles, and the assimilation of food&#13;
naturally suffers.&#13;
According to this authority the best&#13;
light for m&lt;-a1 times Is that given by&#13;
shaded ennrile*. But we should all be&#13;
better In health and In temper, the&#13;
physician states, If we ate oar meals&#13;
In semidarfcness.&#13;
W. COME off, Bill! Vm too&#13;
old for them dreams:" said&#13;
Dick Slttlngwell to his fel&#13;
low druuuuer in the train.&#13;
"No, but honest! I mean It! Why,&#13;
Dick, you must be making your cool&#13;
four thousand, and if your hrm went&#13;
bust you could get just as good a Job&#13;
anywhere. And forty-five if you're a&#13;
a day. Ain't you never had a girl,&#13;
Dick?"&#13;
Dick Slttlngwell moved In his seat&#13;
uneasily. "Cut it out, I tell you," he&#13;
answered ferociously. "Hello! Bourne&#13;
End! Here's where I get off. So long,&#13;
old man! See you next week as&#13;
usual."&#13;
Dick Slttlngwell had had plenty of&#13;
girls when he was a young man, but&#13;
somehow all his romances had come&#13;
to an untimely end. And it was only&#13;
within the last two years that a new&#13;
romance, sweeter than any, and more&#13;
strange, had come into his life.&#13;
He never spoke about Miss Elsie&#13;
Van Nugent. It had never entered his&#13;
mind that he could speak to her without&#13;
profaning her. That was his sanctuary,&#13;
his holy of holies. And marriage&#13;
with her was something of which&#13;
he had never dreamed.&#13;
Their acquaintance had begun by&#13;
an accident. Dick, tolling up the hill&#13;
at Bourne End on a hot summer day,&#13;
with his sample case In his hand, had&#13;
seen the old maid standing at the gate&#13;
of her garden. He looked up at the&#13;
big house in the village, and, taking&#13;
her for the housekeeper, said:&#13;
"Might I ask you for a glass of water,&#13;
ma'am?"&#13;
"I'll get yoa one," stammered Miss&#13;
Van Nugent, and ran away, or rather&#13;
burried away, returning with a glass&#13;
as clear and cold as if it had come&#13;
from some Olympian spring. Dick&#13;
quaffed It at a draft.&#13;
! "Much obliged, ma'am." he said, and&#13;
! raised his hat and wen* away. He&#13;
did not Imagine what a romance that&#13;
was to Elsie Van Nugent.&#13;
| Afterward, upon succeeding Jour-&#13;
' neys. It often happened that he saw&#13;
I Miss Elsie at the gate. Then he would&#13;
1 nod pleasantly and pass a remark. By&#13;
I degrees their Intimacy Increased. Dick&#13;
Slttlngwell would often stay as Ion?&#13;
as five minutes, talking and looking&#13;
wistfully at the big house in the coo!&#13;
grounds. He learned Miss Elsie's&#13;
name at the hotel. She owned the&#13;
place, and was the daughter of the&#13;
i late squire. She was an old maid—&#13;
^anjS they s«Md, maliciously, that she&#13;
was forty.&#13;
Plan to Revive Whaling&#13;
Off California Coast&#13;
San Dleco. Calif—After a hiatus of&#13;
more than half a century whaling operations&#13;
are to be resumed on an extensive&#13;
scale on the southern California&#13;
coast. A whaling fleet consisting&#13;
of the factory steamer Lansing, with&#13;
four killers, has established a base&#13;
at South Bay, San Clernente Island,&#13;
and has started a hunt for the famous&#13;
California "grays," the humpback and&#13;
the sperm, the only species frequenting&#13;
these waters.&#13;
The whale oil. fertilizer and chicken&#13;
.feed, the principal products derived&#13;
from the whale catch, will be disposed&#13;
of entirely In the California markets,&#13;
officials of the whaling company announce.&#13;

2 er, a farmer living near Amherstburg,&#13;
Ont., and a number&#13;
of his friends, are planning to&#13;

The missile Is 'burled abou'&#13;

ii&#13;
Elsie Van Nugent had never married&#13;
because she had taken care of her&#13;
father until tils death, when «he was&#13;
thirty-seven. No opportunities came&#13;
after that. Opportunities for marriage&#13;
' are few in New England among women&#13;
whom birth has made superior to&#13;
the rest of the community. And. besides,&#13;
Elsie was already growing into&#13;
a typl-cal old maid. She was becoming&#13;
angular snd thin, there were gray&#13;
streaks In her hair, and she knew&#13;
quite well that whatever beauty she&#13;
had ever possessed was already gone&#13;
beyond recovery.&#13;
Her life had been utterly cramped&#13;
Her bookish learning had never been&#13;
modified by contact with the world,&#13;
for her father had always been a recluse,&#13;
and. in his last days, a fretful&#13;
Invalid. When she met the drummer&#13;
she thought him a typical man of the&#13;
; world.&#13;
| The acquaintance wns a wonderful&#13;
thing to her. She felt guilty In stealing&#13;
down to the garden gate when&#13;
! Dick was coming that way—Thursdays&#13;
he always appeared In Bourne End.&#13;
She Invented little excuses at first to&#13;
account for her presence there. Wistfully&#13;
she thought how she would like&#13;
to ask him In. But she never dared.&#13;
It wns not only fear of what the neighbors&#13;
would say, but fear of what he&#13;
would think of her.&#13;
It was odd that the uncouth drummer&#13;
should exercise so strange a fascination&#13;
over the old maid, but It was&#13;
equally strange that he should find In&#13;
her his ideal of womanhood. Two or&#13;
three years passed, and their Intimacy&#13;
stayed exactly where it was. Neither&#13;
dared to Increase It. or to venture to&#13;
speak of the thoughts In the heart&#13;
Dick was becoming balder and stouter,&#13;
and Elsie more withered and lean.&#13;
Then came the day when Dick was&#13;
amazed to see the house closed and n&#13;
big "For Sale" sign In front of It The&#13;
town was buzzing with the news. Miss&#13;
Elsie's lawyer, who had had charge&#13;
of her property, had absconded, taking&#13;
with him her whole available fortune,&#13;
ten thousand dollars.&#13;
Miss Elsie had remained secluded tn&#13;
the house since the Monday before.&#13;
Dick hesitated only a moment; then&#13;
he went Into the garden and knocked&#13;
at the door.&#13;
lit&#13;
Miss Elsie herself opened It and&#13;
stood watching him through her tearstained&#13;
lashes. She looked less beautiful&#13;
than ever at that moment, with&#13;
her reddened eyelids nnd her disordered&#13;
hair.&#13;
"It's too bad, ma'am,'* said Dick.&#13;
"Just heard the news and called to&#13;
say bow sorry I was."&#13;
"1 suppose It's what they call life,"&#13;
answered Miss Elsie.&#13;
"1 hope, ma'am, you aren't planning&#13;
to sell the place because of that?"&#13;
*I certainly am. It'i aM that I hare&#13;
I left now.*&#13;
"Might 1 task your price, oqe^'aisf&#13;
Inquired Dick.&#13;
"Kight thousand dollar*," angwereo&#13;
Mlstj Elsie listlessly. "It ought 10 b*&#13;
more, but ttv± house is vary old, and&#13;
that's what I'm advised to hold it fur."&#13;
Dick thought hurriedly. He knew&#13;
that would mean about three thousand&#13;
cash mid a mortgage. Dick was worth&#13;
about three thousand ; he could arrange&#13;
the details.&#13;
"I'll buy It," he announced.&#13;
-you!" gasped Elsie.&#13;
"Yes, ma'am. You see, I've had mj&#13;
eye on the place for a long time, In&#13;
the hopes you might sotue day sell.'&#13;
The words struck her like a blow be&#13;
tween the eyes. So that was the secret&#13;
of his Interest. The vanity oi&#13;
her dreams!&#13;
"I suppose you can have it, then,"&#13;
he heard her answer vaguely.&#13;
"Everything in It as it stands, lock&#13;
stock and barrel?" asked Dick.&#13;
"Why, I guess the furniture's no!&#13;
worth much," said Miss Elsie. "You'll&#13;
have to see my brother, Mr. Van Nugent,&#13;
at Staples, lie has charge of the&#13;
matter."&#13;
"But If he is willing, you are?" persisted&#13;
Dick.&#13;
"Yes," she replied.&#13;
Dick withdrew. He wanted to hide&#13;
the elution in his heart, that set it&#13;
pounding frightfully as he reflected&#13;
upon his maneuver. He clenched his&#13;
fists as he thought of the lawyer. He&#13;
had known Sharpies well; the man&#13;
was a convivial person at the hotel.&#13;
"If ever I run across him, I'll break&#13;
his head," he swore.&#13;
IV&#13;
And Dick ran across him tne following&#13;
week In the most amazing way.&#13;
He was sent out to a western city to&#13;
cover a territory left vacant by the&#13;
Illness of a fellow drummer. The&#13;
business done, Dick retired to his&#13;
room In the hotel.&#13;
A door opened softly, and Dick saw&#13;
the head and shoulders of Sharpies&#13;
In a minute he had leaped across t h t&#13;
passage and entered, before the law&#13;
yer could draw the bolt.&#13;
Sharpies stared at Dick In terror.&#13;
"What do you want?" he snarled.&#13;
"You know," said Dick.&#13;
Sharpies realized that It was no&#13;
time to make pretenses. "It's not&#13;
your business," he swaggered, "but I'll&#13;
give you five hundred to get out and&#13;
keep your mouth shut."&#13;
"You'll give me ten thousand for&#13;
Miss Van Nugent," answered Dick.&#13;
"It never was ten thousand."&#13;
"It's going to be."&#13;
"D'you suppose I've got It about me,&#13;
you fool?"&#13;
Dick went to the telephone and&#13;
touched the receiver. The Inwyer&#13;
grabbed him by the arm. "I'll give&#13;
you two." he hlustpred.&#13;
Dick turned and fticed him. "1 said&#13;
ten. and meant It." he returned. "And&#13;
see here! I premised myself the&#13;
pleasure of breaking your head. However,&#13;
I guess T can't have everything.&#13;
Will you hand over that ten thousAd,&#13;
for the last time?"&#13;
The lawyer took a hill case out of&#13;
his pocket and mechanically counted&#13;
out the money. Therp were twenty&#13;
hilts of five hundred apiece. Dick examined&#13;
them ; they were genuine&#13;
enough.&#13;
"I guess you've plenty more," .be&#13;
said.&#13;
"It's where you won't get It."&#13;
Dick' smiled and slipped the bills&#13;
Into his pocket.&#13;
"So, yon see, I gupss T can't buy the&#13;
place after all," Dick explained to&#13;
Miss Elsie 89 he hdnded her th*&#13;
money.&#13;
She was crying softly. "I don't&#13;
know what to say or how to thank&#13;
you." she sobbed. "It's wonderful.&#13;
It's wonderful 1"&#13;
And In her happiness, more at the&#13;
proof of his interest than at the return&#13;
of the money, tho years seemed to&#13;
fall from .Miss Elsie, and there was&#13;
almost n girlish flush upon her face.&#13;
Dick breathed heavily. "I mess Tm&#13;
sorry we can't carry out our arrangement."&#13;
he mumbled. "It wasn't the&#13;
place I wanted, but the contents, as&#13;
we agreed."&#13;
"The furniture? Do you really wan*&#13;
that?"&#13;
"No," stammered Dick. "I wanted&#13;
you."&#13;
And with amazing daring he tool&#13;
Miss Elsie In his arms and kissed her&#13;

The monk parrakeets of southern&#13;
South America Join In bands that&#13;
build In company a structure of sticks&#13;
that forms a veritable apartment&#13;
house In which each pair of birds&#13;
lives In a separate cavity. These communal&#13;
nests are used year after year&#13;
and often grow steadily In bulk. Some&#13;
are six or eight feet In diameter and&#13;
contain enough sticks and twigs to&#13;
fill a wagon. In early days In the&#13;
Pampas these birds nested In the low&#13;
trees that formed occasional groves&#13;
on the plains. Man Introduced Eucalyptus&#13;
trees, which grow to a great&#13;
height and now the monk parrakeets&#13;
build nests In the branches of trees. &gt;&#13;
often 60 or 80 feet from the ground. ;&#13;

Milton W. Dreesel, Pa$tor. Week., of&#13;

we take heed thereto growth is made&#13;
in the Christian life.One of the greatest&#13;
assets any church or community&#13;
can have is an honest to goodness&#13;
Christian home where the children&#13;
grow into manhood and womanhood&#13;
under the watchful eye of an earnest&#13;
Christian father and mother.&#13;
We invite all people within the community&#13;

church home. It is a sanctuary for&#13;
worship, a school for religious instruction,&#13;
a fighting unit for the new&#13;
world that is building. It isa social&#13;
center of the highest type, since it&#13;
gathers into relations of mutual helpfulness&#13;
people of every age and condition.&#13;
It ur the most br6adening and&#13;
democratic organization among men.&#13;
since its vision is to the ends of the&#13;
earth, wr.ither the gospel is being&#13;
carried and since its citizenship is ir&#13;
Heaven as well as on earth. To mak'&#13;
our church a success in its chosen&#13;
field a regular participation in all services&#13;
on your part is a vital necessity.&#13;

DOES YOUR CAR START HARD?&#13;
Now that cold weather is here you may be caused&#13;
no little inconvenience and loss of time by the&#13;
slow starting of your car which fails to respond as&#13;
quickly asit did during the summer months. There&#13;
may be several reasons for this. Here are some of&#13;
them:&#13;
Your battery may be down,&#13;
Your oil too heavy for winter.&#13;
Your coils worn out or&#13;
There may be a loose connection&#13;
Bring your car in and we will make it start easy for&#13;
you.&#13;

A Rockland girl was entertaining&#13;
her bean, a policeman from a neighboring&#13;
town, and the maid's yonng&#13;
brother thought be would like to put&#13;
on the handcuffs the caller carried In&#13;
his pocket&#13;
The genial copper was willing to&#13;
oblige and the wrtstleta were fastened&#13;
on the yonogster, who wat confident&#13;
he could g^t them off without any aid.&#13;
But they were obettoste, and Anally&#13;
the courting cop was asked to unlock&#13;
them. Then the officer began to get&#13;
chills and fever. A hunt of one pocket&#13;
after another failed to locate the key.&#13;
As a last w o r t the flustered officer&#13;
of the law was obliged to bundle up&#13;
little brother and carry him to the&#13;
home in another town where the key&#13;
had been left All that occupied quite&#13;
a lot of time and that Sunday evening&#13;
was practically wasted for the kid's&#13;

XT one who has ever motored through&#13;
the quaint sleepy towns of New&#13;
England has fallen In lore with the small&#13;
houses that abound In that section&#13;
of the country—neat, white, tmpreteatious&#13;
and with a touch of roserre about&#13;
them. Just such a house la the one&#13;
pictured here. It is equally adaptable&#13;
for town or country, and by merely Jhlft-&#13;
&gt;g the living and entrance porches around can be built on a wide or narrow&#13;
lot without spoiling it architecturally.&#13;
The house Is sturdily built and has an exterior of wood siding except&#13;
for the unusual stucco panels that start at the level of the second door windows.&#13;
The roof is of stained shingles, pref*&#13;
erably moss green, in keeping with the&#13;
window shutters. A house of this compact^&#13;
style Is very easy to heat, especially&#13;
when the specifications call for insulation&#13;
throughout with celotex, which prevents&#13;
heat leakage, and keeps the house cool in&#13;
the summer.&#13;
The living and dining rooms are here&#13;
combined into one large room flooded with&#13;
light by windows on three sides. The two&#13;
bedrooms on the second floor each have Mi.Ai»ftiiAii*.fciu&#13;

That Matter&#13;
There are four qualities we look for in a motor oil:..&#13;
1. It must give perfect lubrication.&#13;
2. It must leave the engine in clean condition.&#13;
3. It must be economical to use.&#13;
4 It must be free from impurities that damage&#13;
the engine.&#13;
On these four counts we have chosen Sinclair Opaline&#13;
Motor Oils and recommend them to our customi,&#13;

CURRENT EVENTS&#13;
No Tax Legislation This&#13;
Session—Smith Named&#13;
Illinois Senator.&#13;
By EDWARD W. PICKARD&#13;
WITH the prospect of a surplus In&#13;
the government treasury of about&#13;
$500,000,000 on July 1, 1927, the Democrats&#13;
in congress are loudly demanding&#13;
that a general tax reduction bill&#13;
be passed at this session. But the&#13;
majority members of the all-powerful&#13;
ways and means committee of the&#13;
house will not agree even to President&#13;
Coolidge's suggestion that there be a&#13;
temporary reduction In the Income&#13;
tax payable next year. It has definitely&#13;
decided that no tax legislation whatever&#13;
shall he Introduced during the&#13;
short session, adopting what it called&#13;
the alternative plan of the President,&#13;
that the surplus should be applied toward&#13;
reduction of the public debt.&#13;
This latter plan for disposal of the&#13;
huge sum of money, the Kepubllcun&#13;
leaders hold, will Inure to the benefit&#13;
of all taxpayers, whereas, as Senator&#13;
Smoot asserted, the flat percentage&#13;
cut In Income taxes would mainly&#13;
only a few large corporations.&#13;

vMiDC^M dtrrlag the fiscal year&#13;

n .076*800^000. wfcleli, with&#13;
the single excepttoa of the year following&#13;
the close of the war* artll be&#13;
the greatest amount of debt retirement&#13;
accomplished Ir. any similar&#13;
period thus far.&#13;
Senators Swanson. Harrison. Copehand&#13;
and King all arose In the senate&#13;
Wednesday to protest against the decision&#13;
of the Republicans. Swanson&#13;
•aid tax legislation was being sidetracked&#13;
wit)) the deliberate view of&#13;
reducing taxes next year shortly In&#13;
advance of the1 Presidential election.&#13;
Copeland said the administration was&#13;
guilty of "legalized larceny" in collecting&#13;
upward of $.'00,000,000 more&#13;
ftioney in taxes than needed, without&#13;
providing some method of refunding&#13;
the surplus to the taxpayers. Senator&#13;
Harrison demanded that the Democrats&#13;
and Republicans forget partisan&#13;
differences long enough to enact a&#13;
bill reducing taxes at this session.&#13;
WHEN the house passed the treasury&#13;
appropriation measure It&#13;
scotched the plan of Ass.stant Secretary&#13;
Andrews to obtain $.'00,000 for&#13;
the payment of prohibition spies to&#13;
be expended without accounting. Last&#13;
week General Andrews tried to have&#13;
this provision re-inserted In the bill in&#13;
the senate, but Senator Bruce raised&#13;
a point of order and was warmly supported&#13;
by other eminent wets, and&#13;
again the scheme was defeated. The&#13;
employment of spies In enforcement&#13;
of the prohibition law was roundly&#13;
denounced; but of course what killed&#13;
the plan was that the clause in question,&#13;
permitting advances from the&#13;
enforcement fund, would violate a&#13;
federal statute and also was an attempt&#13;
to legislate in an appropriation&#13;
bill.&#13;
A 4 WAS related last week, the&#13;
house naval affairs committee&#13;
dlsoovered that the budget bureau&#13;
estimates for naval construction during&#13;
the coming year make no provision&#13;
for completion of the 1024 cruiser&#13;
nulldlng program or for the building&#13;
of two dirigibles authorized by congress.&#13;
I n e committeemen were angry.&#13;
and their Ire was Increased when Secretary&#13;
of the Navy Wilbur submitted&#13;
his annual report showing how the&#13;
administration's retrenchment policy&#13;
was cramping and crippling the navy.&#13;
Wherefore the committee, by unanimous&#13;
vote, sent Chairman Butler to&#13;
the White House with a letter which.&#13;
though secret, wa Known to appeal&#13;
to the President fi-r his sanction for&#13;
Immediate action to ouild up the navy&#13;
to the limit fixed by the 5-5-8 Washington&#13;
treaty. The committeemen&#13;
•ay the navy Is now in third place&#13;
i fast falling&#13;
ipproxlmately&#13;
to fourth place.&#13;

Igth. They want as m(&#13;
loo daring the cot&#13;
* &gt;n icst tad facility&#13;
permit. The procedure of the&#13;
uiiuee is without precedent.&#13;
v V river&#13;
comHEN&#13;
the senate took up the&#13;
and harbor bill, included In&#13;
which is authorization for the development&#13;
of the lower Illinois river as&#13;
part of the lakes-to-the-gulf waterway,&#13;
the senators from states thdt have&#13;
been fighting Chicago's diversion of&#13;
lake water for the sanitary canal&#13;
threatened &amp; filibuster because they&#13;
feared the measure would approve of&#13;
that diversion. However, the leaders&#13;
of both sides in the controversy held&#13;
an all-day conference and Wednesday&#13;
night reached a compromise which&#13;
seemed to assure the speedy passage&#13;
of the bill. It was agreed that this&#13;
amendment should be inserted:&#13;
"Provided that nothing in this act&#13;
shall be construed as authorizing any&#13;
diversion of water from Lake Michigan."&#13;
D ISREOARDING all warnings.&#13;
Governor Small of Illinois on&#13;
Thursday appointed Frank L. Smith,&#13;
senator-elect, to till out the unexpired&#13;
term of the late Senator McKInley. It&#13;
was expected that Mr. Smith would go&#13;
to Washington in a few days and attempt&#13;
to take the seat, and that the&#13;
Democrats and some Republicans&#13;
would undertake to exclude him because&#13;
of the slush-fund scandal attached&#13;
to his primary campaign. The&#13;
Republican leaders had hoped that&#13;
this fight would not be brought on&#13;
until next session because if precipitated&#13;
now it would delay necessary&#13;
legislation. Mr. Smith had indicated&#13;
that he wished to present his defense&#13;
to the senate at this time, but he was&#13;
warned that if possible an immediate&#13;
vote on the question of admitting&#13;
him would be had, so he would have&#13;
no chance. Governor Small declared&#13;
that In appointing Smith he was following&#13;
the wishes of the Illinois electorate&#13;
as expressed at the polls In&#13;
November, and that not a charge of&#13;
undue Influence or corruption at that&#13;
election has been made. Senator&#13;
Ashurst of Arizona introduced a resolution&#13;
designed to prevent Smith from&#13;
taking his seat.&#13;
Ing for confirmation of their concessions,&#13;
Luis Morones, minister of Industry&#13;
and commerce, was in warm&#13;
controversy last week with the Standard&#13;
Oil company over the questioa&#13;
whether or not its representative had&#13;
made such application. The Association&#13;
of Producers of Petroleum in&#13;
Mexico, meeting in New York, stood&#13;
pat on its opposition to the Mexican&#13;
law.&#13;
CHANCELLOR MARX and Foreign;&#13;
Minister Stresemann are not having&#13;
an easy time maintaining their&#13;
majority In the reichstag, but Marx&#13;
is defiant. Last week he offered an&#13;
alliance to the Socialists, promising to&#13;
give them representation in the cabinet,&#13;
and they refused. When he told&#13;
this to the reichstag the Nationalists&#13;
abused him and left the chamber.&#13;
Phlllpp Scheidemann, Socialist leader,&#13;
attacked the cabinet bitterly, especially&#13;
Minister of Defense Gessler. H^&#13;
charged that a secret fund existed In&#13;
the budget for the manufacture and&#13;
hoarding of arms and airplanes in&#13;
Russia. He asserted that the allies&#13;
knew all about "the rotten militaristic&#13;
conditions In Germany" and added:&#13;
"We might as well correct these conditions&#13;
ourselves as have the allies&#13;
act for us." All of which was nuts&#13;
for the French opponents of Brland's&#13;
policy of conciliation.&#13;

LBERT R. FALL, former secrey&#13;
of the interior, and Edward&#13;
L, Doheny. oil magnate, are not guilty&#13;
of conspiring to defraud the government&#13;
in connection with the leases of&#13;
the naval oil reserve at Elk Hills,&#13;
Calif. Such was the verdict of the&#13;
jury that heard the case against the&#13;
two men In the Supreme court of the&#13;
District of Columbia&#13;
The celebrated case, involving the&#13;
leasing of the naval reserve oil lands&#13;
to Doheny and the $100,000 transaction&#13;
between them while Fall was secretary&#13;
of the interior in lU'Jl. had&#13;
been on trial for 23 days, with 17&#13;
lawyers dealing In a great mass of&#13;
technical evidence. The Jury deliberated&#13;
for many hours and brought in&#13;
its verdict of acquittal on Thursday&#13;
morning. Counsel for the government&#13;
at once took up the second of the oil&#13;
lease criminal cases. In this one Fall&#13;
and Harry F. Sinclair are the defend&#13;
ants and it involves the lease of the&#13;
Teapot Dome oil field to Sinclair's&#13;

D ERATE on the agricultural bill In&#13;
the house Wednesday served to&#13;
give the Lowden Presidential boom an&#13;
airing. Representative Dickinson of&#13;
Iowa alluded to the Illinotsan as a&#13;
leading champion of the new McNary&#13;
bill for farm relief, and Mr. Howard&#13;
of Nebraska asked the Iowan if "his&#13;
candidate" was not a little beyond&#13;
the desiraMe age for a President. Mr.&#13;
Dickinson retorted that the two-term&#13;
limit for Presidents was of more concern&#13;
to the American people than the&#13;
age of a President&#13;
W ARNTNG to&#13;
ELATIONS between Italy and&#13;
ranee continue rather strained&#13;
and movements of French troops t o ^&#13;
ward the frontier are going on, while&#13;
by January 12, it is expected, the entire&#13;
French fleet will be in the Mediterranean.&#13;
Mussolini stated recently&#13;
that he had 30 divisions north of&#13;
the Po river. Of course no one predicts&#13;
actual warfare, but everyone is&#13;
nervous. The Italian government&#13;
also has annoyed Great Britain by&#13;
failing to Invite the British fleet to&#13;
visit Italian ports during its maneuvers&#13;
in the Mediterranean early next&#13;
year.&#13;
TURKEY, with both Italy and England&#13;
in mind. Is trying to arrange&#13;
protecting alliances. A London cor&#13;
respondent says: "Within the last&#13;
few days Turkey has offered an offensive&#13;
and defensive alliance to Persia&#13;
on the same lines as the treaty it recently&#13;
made with Afghanistan. Great&#13;
Britain is LOW subsidizing Persia&#13;
through the Anglo-Persian Oil com&#13;
pany to the tune of £4,000.000 ($20,-&#13;
000,000) annually, but It will have to&#13;
do even better if it wishes to keep&#13;
Persia, which is threatened by Turkey,&#13;
Russia, and Afghanistan, in tine."&#13;
D ISPATCHES from Barcelona say&#13;
another conspiracy to assassinate&#13;
King Alfonso and Dictator de&#13;
Rivera has been discovered in Madrid&#13;
and many of the plotters arrested.&#13;
They had planned to shoot the pre&#13;
mier from a closed motor car In front&#13;
of his office and then to kill the king&#13;
with grenades when he was attending&#13;
Gen. de Rivera's funeral.&#13;
O FFICIAL announcement Is mad^&#13;
in Warsaw that the Polish army&#13;
now has 258.095 soldiers and 179,000&#13;
officers, and that the navy has 2,124&#13;
sailors and 236 officers. These forces.&#13;
which do not include the militarized&#13;
police, will cost about $76,500,000 in&#13;
1927. With the police and the special&#13;
guards on the Russian and Lithuanian&#13;
frontiers. Poland has nearly 400,000&#13;
men under arms. It Is thus the greatest&#13;
military power in central Europe,&#13;

structure of its kind ever conceived—&#13;
moved definitely Into the realm of&#13;
actuality when the port authority&#13;
completed details of the $60,000,000&#13;
financing program Involved in Its construction.&#13;
Before actual work la begun, It will&#13;
be necessary to obtain the approval of&#13;
the secretary of war, and tenders for&#13;
the bonds are being accepted with a&#13;
proviso to this effect. Application, it&#13;
is said by officials of the port authority,&#13;
has already been tiled, asking&#13;
such authorization.&#13;
Work to Start Early In 1927.&#13;
The completion of the financial details&#13;
for the Hudson span and the issuance&#13;
of bond proposals means, it is&#13;
believed, that the actual construction&#13;
work will get under way early in&#13;
1927. Its effect is to place at the disposal&#13;
of the port authority sufficient&#13;
funds to complete half of the project&#13;
or to carry the work along until 1929&#13;
or 1930.&#13;
In addition to the $20,000,000 to be&#13;
raised by the initial public offering&#13;
of bonds there will be available $10,-&#13;
000,000 in advance by the two states.&#13;
New York and New Jersey, by legislative&#13;
act, have agreed to furnish $5,-&#13;
000,000 apiece at the rate of $1,000,000&#13;
a year for five years. These advances&#13;
will be repaid after the completion&#13;
of the structure out of its&#13;
surplus toll revenues.&#13;
The entire cost of the project Is&#13;
placed finally In the latest resolution&#13;
of the port authority at $50,000,000, a&#13;
figure which, that body finds, will provide&#13;
for the bridge, Its terminals, and&#13;
from four to six lanes of approach.&#13;
The authorization of $60,000,000 in&#13;
bonds is made with the idea of Increasing&#13;
the capacity of the approaches&#13;
and enlarging the structure&#13;
to its ultimate limits at a later date&#13;
if deemed advisable.&#13;
Under the agreement entered Into&#13;
with the port authority, It is revealed&#13;
In the resolution Just adopted, the&#13;
states agree not to authorize any&#13;
crossings for vehicular traffic that will&#13;
come into competition with the new&#13;
bridge. They agree, further, to provide&#13;
for ample toll rates to maintain&#13;
and operate the sprn and to provide&#13;
service on its bonded indebtedness.&#13;
The states' advances will be paid back&#13;
out of surplus at the rate of at least&#13;
2 per cent on the principal if such surplus&#13;
is earned, otherwise on a pro&#13;
rata basis, with deficits being made&#13;
up from year to year.&#13;
Greatest Span In World.&#13;
The bridge will be far and away the&#13;
most gigantic span ever undertaken&#13;
by man, It will be two and one-half&#13;
times the size of the Brooklyn bridge&#13;
and twice the size of the recently&#13;
opened Philadelphia-Camden bridge&#13;
over the Delaware. Its unsupported&#13;
section will measure 3,586 feet—approximately&#13;
two-thirds of a mile—and&#13;
its tower will rise almoBt to tbe&#13;
height of the Woolworth building—&#13;
660 feet. The clearance for vessels&#13;
will be 206 feet, which U more than&#13;
70 feet more than the regulation requirements.&#13;
The New York end will&#13;
be In the neighborhood of One Hundred&#13;
Seventy-ninth street&#13;
There will be three stages of constructlon&#13;
of the structure, according&#13;
to Robert A- Lasher, traffic engineer&#13;
of the port authority. The first of&#13;
these will be the opening of traffic&#13;
lanes on each side of the bridge,&#13;
which will accommodate two lines of&#13;
vehicles both easterly and westerly.&#13;
After that the center lanes for four&#13;
additional lines will be opened up.&#13;

New York.—The mentally and&#13;
physically unfit should be denied&#13;
children aa the only means of&#13;
preventing the degeneration of&#13;
mankind, Dr. Adolf Lorens,&#13;
noted Vienna surgeon, said.&#13;
"Our sense of humanity la-destroying&#13;
humanity," he asserted.&#13;
"In saving the weak of mind&#13;
from the hazards of a hard and&#13;
selfish world, by prolonging the&#13;
Uvea of the constitutionally&#13;
weak persons with hereditary&#13;
tendencies toward physical and&#13;
mental disease, we are allowing&#13;
more and more of the poorer&#13;
human stock to survive and reproduce."&#13;
MThe only way In which to&#13;
check the tendency toward degeneration&#13;
and turn the tide the&#13;
other way Is to prevent the&#13;
poorest stock from reproducing.&#13;
I am afraid that we are still a&#13;
long, long way from doing that.'*&#13;

Princess Meets i&#13;
Romance in U. S.&#13;
w-&#13;
Ileana of Rumania Twice&#13;
Met Her Prince Charming,&#13;
West Point Adonis&#13;
New York.—Ileana, princess of Rumania,&#13;
met a Prince Charming on&#13;
the first days of her arrival on the&#13;
shores of this democratic land.&#13;
It is a modern fairy tale with all&#13;
Its whimsical, romantic settings, only&#13;
in this case the tale is true.&#13;
The story begins soon after the arrival&#13;
of Ileana with her mother,&#13;
Queen Marie of Rumania, and her&#13;
brother, Prince Nikolas. It will be&#13;
remembered that one of the first of&#13;
the series of social receptions was a&#13;
dance at West Point. Here la where&#13;
the first chapter .begins and ends, to&#13;
be followed by two more.&#13;
Two Cadet Escorts Selected.&#13;
Brig. Gen. M. B. Stewart, superintendent&#13;
of West Point, looked about&#13;
for proper escorts for the princess. He&#13;
selected two cadets, both honor men&#13;
in the class. One was Cadet Lieutenant&#13;
Wlll.'am J. Glasgow of Washington,&#13;
the other Cadet Captain Henry&#13;
G. Douglas of Bel Air, Md. Glasgow&#13;
Is the manager of the army soccer&#13;
team, while Douglas is the regimental&#13;
supply officer,&#13;
Both are handsome. Glasgow is&#13;
considered the Adonis of the academy.&#13;
It was evident It did not take the&#13;
princess long to make her choice. And&#13;
the first one to notice it was Douglas.&#13;
He danced with her once or twice&#13;
tactfully, then retired gracefully to&#13;
the background, leaving his classmate&#13;
and friend a clear field.&#13;
After several dances with Cadet&#13;
Glasgow, the princess herself suggested&#13;
a retreat for fresh air and a view&#13;
of the moon and the great palisades.&#13;
The evening, as In all fairy tales,&#13;
came to an end all too soon, but when&#13;
the princess sho^k hands warmly in&#13;
farewell it did not mean good-by.&#13;
Through all the 10.000-miIe cross&#13;
country tour Ileana did not forget&#13;
Two days before sailing she sufficiently&#13;
overcame her timidity to ask Paul&#13;
D. Cravath, who represented the&#13;
queen In some threatened lawsuit for&#13;
alleged breach of contract, to arrange&#13;
for young Glasgow to come to New&#13;
York to take luncheon with her.&#13;
A Prince** Thwarted—Almost.&#13;
Mr. Cravath at once got in touch&#13;
with General Stewart. Probably for&#13;
the first time Ileana's wish was&#13;
thwarted.&#13;
The commandant said "No!** b u t&#13;
true to fairy-tale fashion, Ileana found&#13;
a way. Could she come to West Point&#13;
and have Mr. Glasgow take luncheon&#13;
with her there? "Yes," said General&#13;
Stewart, for even cadets favored by&#13;
princesses must be allowed to ea'&#13;
some time.&#13;
And so the metaphorical "monn&#13;
tain" went to Mohammed. Tn ordl&#13;
nary prose, the meeting took place at&#13;
the Thayer hotel. West Point. Then&#13;
were others present to satisfy conven&#13;
tion, so young Dc&#13;
also, but they m«&#13;

FRANCE ON BOBBED HAIR&#13;
¢ -&#13;
lf Amount Wai Paid In Taxes to&#13;
Government the Economic Problem&#13;
Would Be Solved.&#13;
p f t r i 8 ( _ I f all the husbands of&#13;
France were to pay in taxes to their&#13;
government what it costs them annually&#13;
to keep the heads of their better&#13;
halves bobbed, shingled or clipped,&#13;
then soon the expression, "governmental&#13;
economies'1 would be banished&#13;
from the political vocabulary of&#13;
French ministers.&#13;
This happy prediction is made possible&#13;
by bobbed hair statistics recently&#13;
compiled In Paris to the effect that&#13;
the annual Income derived from&#13;
bobbed haired madames in France by&#13;
French hairdressers Is little short of&#13;
four bilMon frtocr (roughly speaking&#13;
1125,000,000). •&#13;
This iCDoanl l e s s e n e d by allowing&#13;
SB sversgs somber of 24 haircuts and&#13;
HP* permanent hair waves a year to&#13;
a person, which is putting It mildly.&#13;
Besides bobbing, female hair requires&#13;
waving, and this estimate is&#13;
based upon two permanent hair&#13;
waves per annum, each wave being&#13;
supposed to last from five to six&#13;
months and costing from 150 to 600&#13;
franca, af which the average cost multiplied&#13;
by two—one of each period of&#13;
six months—is 650 francs per annum.&#13;
These two# bllls, one eich for bobbing&#13;
and waving, which do not include&#13;
accessories such as shampoos,&#13;
hair maaaagea, or an occasional and&#13;
discreet application of peroxide, when&#13;
added together make tbe total cost of&#13;
each bolj reach 1,422 franca (about&#13;
HO) per year per person.&#13;
If only 3,000,000 women pteked&#13;
from the 'total French population of&#13;
40,0r0,000 souls—which is, Indeed, s&#13;
conservative estimate—each ask of&#13;

?&#13;
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON&#13;
T WAS Mr. W. E. Henley—he of the "Invlcius"&#13;
verse—who once wrote something&#13;
to the effect that "into the niffht&#13;
go one and all." That was a great many&#13;
years ago, but he might have been talking&#13;
about American sport champions&#13;
and 1926. For the past vear has 9ien&#13;
more crowns Jarred off athletic brows&#13;
een the case In many a year&#13;
diet hltherto-lnvlncihles went&#13;
«*ad the dawn of the new&#13;
fleck of new chame.&#13;
And at the same&#13;
time they're casting sfrprehepsive glances over&#13;
their shoulders to see vnttt formidable contenders&#13;
for their honors are totlWH» up the slope to push&#13;
them from ihelr posltioeaV of smlaoHoe during&#13;
the next twelve months.&#13;
Look over the record presented la&#13;
wiiin and you will see that In nearer&#13;
of sport, the title changed hands once&#13;
aome cases more ihan once.&#13;
Baseball is proverbially the national game and&#13;
It saw a new champion acclaimed in one of the&#13;
most thrilling World Series ever played In this&#13;
country. The Pittsburgh Pirates of the National&#13;
league, 1925 champions, lost out In the flag race&#13;
to the St. Louis Cardinals who had never before&#13;
won first honors. The Washington Senators&#13;
of the American league, 1924 champions and contestants&#13;
In 1925, lost out to the New York&#13;
Yankees, who have been league champions three&#13;
times and who held the title of world champions&#13;
as lately as 1923. For that reason they went&#13;
Into the seven-game series with the Cardinals&#13;
favorites. But Manager Rogers Hornsby and his&#13;
men won a thrilling eleventh-hour victory which&#13;
gave St. Louis her first championship In many&#13;
years and a chance to stage a celebration by her&#13;
citizens which was strongly reminiscent of the&#13;
scenes of wild joy which prevailed all over the&#13;
country on November 11, 1918.&#13;
Even though Rogers Hornsby did lead his Cards&#13;
to a team championship he lost an individual&#13;
title. He has been batting champion In the National&#13;
league for manyv years, but In 1926, he had&#13;
to band ove«* his cpe)wia to Bubbles Hargrave of&#13;

Kenny Leonard had vacated the year&#13;
tat before Rocky could enjoy it long, Sammy&#13;
Wendell took it away from him. The same&#13;
thteg happened in the light heavyweight division&#13;
when Jack Delaney outpointed Paul Berlenbach,&#13;
At the featherweight class, 1925 saw the abdication&#13;
of Kid Kaplan, the champion, because he&#13;
We* growing too heavy to make the required&#13;
weight and Charley (Phil) Rosenberg loaf his&#13;
bantamweight crown when he was suspended from&#13;

triple .chankpAop. But on the field at Baltusrol&#13;
George Von Kim of Los Angeles played superior&#13;
tfolf and, when he finished '2 up and 1 to play,&#13;
Bobby'* reign was over.&#13;
Just as Bobby Jones, the outstanding flk'itra&#13;
among men golfers, went down in defeat, so did&#13;
Glenna Collert. the premier woman golfer, bow&#13;
to another. Miss Collett had been amateur national&#13;
women's champion twice and had f.eld&#13;
all sorts of sectional championship*. Then nlonjj&#13;
came Miss Virginia Wilson, a twetUyyear-olri girl&#13;
from Chicago, to "bump off" (Henna in the thi*d&#13;
round of the national play 3 up and 2 to play,&#13;
And then Mrs. G, Henry Stetson defeated Miss&#13;
Wilson and won the title.&#13;
In tennis tbe full of Big Bill Tllden was rvlmost&#13;
as dramatic as that of Bobby Jones or Jack Dempsey.&#13;
Up until this year he seertfed supreme in&#13;
his field. But the 1926 Jinx for champions got&#13;
in Its work on him early. He lout the indoor national&#13;
championship to Bene Ln(&gt;)ste, a Frenchman.&#13;
Then Vincent Richards be it him In preliminary&#13;
tournaments and In the Davis ("up&#13;
matches £a Coste was again victor over Tilden.&#13;
Then came the supreme test—the national amateur&#13;
matches and In five hard-fought sets Big&#13;
Bill was forced to bow to another Frenchman.&#13;
Henri Cochet.&#13;
When ID"-" opened Suzanne I.mtflen was unofficial&#13;
tennis champion of the world and she retained&#13;
the title by defeating Helen Wills at Cannes&#13;
early In tht? year. She continued her victorious&#13;
march through the Wimbledon notches (for appendicitis&#13;
had prevented "Littlf Poker Face"&#13;
irom another attempt to wre*t' 'be tifJe from&#13;
Suzanne) and then voluntarily nbdlcnted her amateur&#13;
title hy turning professional when C. C.&#13;
Pyle, who first sprang in the sport limelight by&#13;
commercializing the gridiron prowess of Red&#13;
Grange, "th*j Galloping Ghost." persuaded her&#13;
that many American dollars awaited her appearance&#13;
in this country.&#13;
In wrestling the major title changed hands with&#13;
considerable rapldi'v. As the New Year of 1925&#13;
dawned Wayne Munn, ihe big Xebraskan, wore&#13;
the crown because he had tossed Strangler Lewis&#13;
ont of the ring and defeated him. Then the&#13;
Strangler staged a come-back with his celebrated&#13;
headlock and beat Munn. But before he could&#13;
get the crown firmly adjusted. Joe Stecher of&#13;
Iowa came along and lifted it from his head and&#13;
hurried to a mirror to take a look at himself in&#13;
his new chapesu. Ivan Podubno, the European&#13;
champion, came to our shores anj made an attempt&#13;
to adjust the same millinery to his head.&#13;
But Joe wasn't ready to give it up yet and he still&#13;
wears it.&#13;
In 1926 Paavo Nurmi, the "Flying Finn,- was&#13;
the sensation of the running track and was hailed&#13;
as the world's greatest distance runner. But&#13;
1928 brought an end to his victories. He was&#13;
beaten by another Finn, F. Llevendahl and Edvia&#13;
Wide, a German, has threatened his general&#13;
supremacy. Doctor Pelser, snot her German, not&#13;
only beat Nurmi in the 1..VK) m»ter run In record&#13;
time hot he also took another title when he b*»at&#13;
Douglas Lowe, an Englishman, to the tsoe snd&#13;
Lowe had beaten the best of the American middle&#13;
distance runners.&#13;
In motor boat racing, in horse racing, in skating,&#13;
old champions gave way to new. But if these&#13;
new kings nod queens at sport look back o'er&#13;
the athletic trail of 1926 and are mindful of Its&#13;
ieaeone, they probably will not face 1927 with&#13;

World Faces Crisis in Prevailing Disintegration&#13;
of Family Life&#13;
By REV. DR. S. EDWARD YOUNG, Chicago. EVERYBODY'S prayers should be offered for the confused young&#13;
people of today who have all the matrimonial inclinations mortals&#13;
ever had and find themselves discussing promiscuously and in&#13;
ordinary conversation trial marriage and every phase of sei problems,&#13;
as unblushingly as we used to discuss the weather.&#13;
Novel and stage and motion picture and divorce suit and so-called&#13;
medical books have left nothing forbidden, no zone of shame to be aToid-&#13;
«d, when youth in their teens talk couple by couple or in groups. Our&#13;
yomen working out and dining out, family arrangements have made the&#13;
^id time fireside a myth to most city and town Americans. The family&#13;
eype that gave us the strong men and women of other days is leas and&#13;
-**ss here to function, and in its stead is coming a regime as far from Puritanic&#13;
as democracy is from despotism.&#13;
Redeclaring church laws ami clever decisions that get around cburcJl';[&#13;
Uws influence the situation about as much as New York state statutes afi|4&#13;
f*jct Reno or Paris. Our only hope is healthful public opinion. It is t h | ;&#13;
*.ig task of churches and all who have a heart to help in the most vital&#13;
crisis the Anglo-Saxon Christian household has thus far faced.&#13;
There is no need of despair. The revolution in family life can be met&#13;
by the personal religious contacts of preachers and teachers and wholeiome&#13;
books and a re-establishment of the household father as a kind of&#13;
priest and the mother as a kind of priestess.&#13;
Despite Use of Slang, Modern Youth Has Able&#13;
Command of Language&#13;
By W. WILBUR HATFIELD, Chicago Educator.&#13;
Despite the accusations of their elders that children use too mtieh&#13;
alang, the average youth of eighteen today uses much better language&#13;
than did the youth of fifteen or even five years ago.&#13;
! The courses in formal rhetoric once so popular m the better schools,&#13;
have been displaced by training in composition, oral as well as written. Bej&#13;
«»use of changed aims and methods of training the average youth of eighteen&#13;
today uses much better language than did the youth of eighteen,&#13;
^fteen or even five years ago.&#13;
The next step forward is to be the replacement of the present artificial,&#13;
would-be literary themes, more than half of which are narrativea of&#13;
insignificant personal experiences, with practice in genuine communicai&#13;
tion in such situations as occur outside the school.&#13;
Already progressive teachers in many places are experimenting with&#13;
these innovations and finding that they are quite practicable. The school&#13;
graduates ten years hence may be confidently expected to show both mora&#13;
language power and more ability to adapt themselves to the social situations&#13;
of business and ordinary intercourse.&#13;
Religion the Sole Foundation of Moral Standards&#13;
and Conventions&#13;
By BISHOP WILLIAM T. MANNING, Episcopal, New York.&#13;
Stronger moral convictions and standards to enhance the&#13;
are necessary in upholding the nation's laws and institatiosBs.&#13;
We see so many people today who are moraliy a d r i f t ^&#13;
clear standards or convictions. They tell u§ thai |^l«ttdBafi aW nothing&#13;
but conventions; that there is DO nwrtiJaflr wfcfch we are bound to&#13;
obey. That view of life means ruin fpj^he intfvidnal and for society. It&#13;
means that they have lost their hold on religion and on God. It is religion&#13;
alone that gives us more standards and conventions, and it is the&#13;
only foundation of character, personal responsibility and citizenship and&#13;
human life&#13;
It is faith which makes human life great, and that makes it worth&#13;
while. Doubt and uncertainty give no power to our lives. It is the man&#13;
who believes great things who accomplishes great things. Faith lives in&#13;
every human heart and the Christian religion lifts the faith that is in as&#13;
up to its highest and noblest expression. All history shows that religion,&#13;
and morals stand together or fall together.&#13;
Increased Duration of Life Great Factor&#13;
Progress Made by World&#13;
in&#13;
By PROF. T. WINGATE TODD, Western Reserve University.&#13;
Longevity should be regarded as a social benefit as well as increased&#13;
opportunity for living. The tremendous impetus of discovery and invention&#13;
during the past century has undoubtedly been due in a large mtaa-v&#13;
ure to the increased duration of life achieved by medical science.&#13;
Consider the magnificent work of Edison, Burbank, and Maxim during&#13;
the ripe years of life denied to earlier generations. Once the old&#13;
men of society, those of priceless wisdom and experience, died in the&#13;
prime of their maturity. Today we have aged fathers and uncles from&#13;
whom we absorb knowledge acquired through the slow years.&#13;
And the quickening conscience of the world in regard to human relations&#13;
is undoubtedly influenced by the fact that we have so many old&#13;
mothers still alive, blooming like evening primroses in the evening of&#13;
life.&#13;
The average death age has been increased to fifty-six yean, with an&#13;
attendant advance in the old age "peak'' from forty-two to seventy-two&#13;
years.&#13;
Fundamental Essentials of Home life More&#13;
Than Food, Clothing and Shelter&#13;
By ALICE M. LOOMIS, Illinois Education Specialist.&#13;
No greater mistake can be made than the belief that food, clothing&#13;
and shelter are the fundamental essentials of home life.&#13;
They are essentials, but is that all there is to living, to civilisation&#13;
or to racial development? Is that all theft is to enjoying life? What&#13;
we are striving for is to make the home a place for the meintai, physical,&#13;
moral and spiritual development of its members, and alts) a pUoa from&#13;
frhich each can prepare himself to do his fall paft to tnev e e x i larger&#13;
unit of society. This expanding of social interest bat no limit, withil&#13;
the needs of the race, bat it hat a very natural ttartaag poiart i n the&#13;
home.&#13;
The conviction grows that true home education In the n l w i l s j j |&#13;
family circle it t ntver-ei&#13;
toward the advancing goal&#13;
planning.&#13;

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 authorisation for the construction of the intracoastal waterway from Jacksonville, Fia, to Miami Senators Gooding of Idaho and Pittnan of Nevada

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

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

disbeliever In men, was never without his woman Identification of the two was not immediately established on the morn ing of the crime, buT when police had wiped aside the shroud of mystery they nodded knowingly Well, boys, the scores tied I said one of them Hilliard had gone the wpy he had sent Gene Bowen, exconvict and member of the formers gang of master cracksmen, in a Green street apart ment on the night of August ft Gladys Fleming, by chance of fate, had taken the same medicine that Hilliard meted out to the dashing Dorothy Wilson on the same night he killed Bowena bullet in the temple Both women lived Score is Tied So the score, In the main at least, was tied, so far as the underworld went But this same underworld was now a uood Jump ahead of the police True, long ago the police had cornered Jim Fleming, second husbund of the wounded Gladys, and sent him away to the big house at San Quentin for the killing of a copper, but Jn this race to get Clyde Hilliard the element had wonhands down With a combination of hair dye an alias and native cunning, Hilliard had slipped through the police 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

Started By JEAN NEWTON J 000000K0000CKXX0000 SINISTER O UR understanding of the word sinister is something wrong, dishonest, corrupt, something in which lurks 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 ister derives Its unpleasant signifi cance from the circumstance that from ancient times the left aide has been rejrarded as unlucky So in modern words we constantly find concealed ancient beliefs and superstitions and bits of historyenfolded In a syllable or a name CopyrlfM Green Feed Important for Layers in Winter Green feed is Important in the ration of hens In winter A California bulletin tells 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 al ways console

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 Organization Must Allow for the  Development of Higher Life By WILLIAM T MANNING, Episcopal Bishop of

development of his higher life No human being ought to be dVarred from such opportunity Every man and 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 militarism in America Our army today is, proportionately, as small as it has ever been Always it has been a constructive force Danger of Losing Sight of American Tradition of Political Liberty By CLIFTON D GRAY, President Bates College, Maine Despite constitutional guaranty of freedom of speech and press and of a free church in a free state, our freedom is constant rmperilled Whatever binds the human mind, be it dogma of the past or a statute of the present is treason to the truth Certain facts in our revolutionary history become unpalatable to some of our citizens and straightway new text books are demanded with revised slants to please this or that group If we are to escape bondage of the mind, we must hold fast to the great American tradition of political liberty This means freedom of  opinion and unhindered public discussion Have we a bolshevist among us  Let

Paris col lection of fur coats, says a Paris fashion correspondent in tbe New York Times But interest in fur 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 and Cuffs, shades ts oporto, trimmed probably la astrathan but lined in

as are most social laws, upon considera tion and courtesy Children, no matter how young If they are able to walk and talk, upon entering a room where there are callers, should be punctiliously Intro

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

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

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 was oatsuly

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

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

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

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

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 cold and wet Good house rent for hens costs only flve eggs per hen during the winter months, so a good poultry house can be afforded on the average farm t aMrmtiM haw found nltef in OitoTan iaflti mm

Gentian Loves the Life of the Woods It Is that wonderful shade of blue which is so gorgeous and yet which is  so 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 end with the little line which is my flowery motto Dont look wretched and weary, but always

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

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 Seventeenth centnry  by McCltire Newapapar Syndicate Clara Bow

DELLA THOMPSON LUDES INTRODUCING PEOPLE el by MoClors New  THE man should be presented to the womannever the woman to the man, except in 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 older Copylfht, by The KsstmeUt Syndicate O Changes in English There

New York gubernatorial chair at his fourth Inauguration NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Senate Ready to Exclude Mr Smith of 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

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

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

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

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 the petroleum law, involving the prosecu tion of the foreign oil companies

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 claimants to his name have appeared Shortly after the old Ross home was sold to the Cliveden church, Mrs Ross died, on

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 laws of gravity Tell me what your ancestors have been for two or three generations, and I will tell you what your children will be Now and then an individual jises like a meteor to new heights, but it is rare Heredity is one of the most difficult social problems of this age  Calfskin, Ponvikin, Gazelle, Chipmunk, Giraffe, Are  Among Novelties Furriers are using pelts In ways ondreamed of a decade 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 front Distinctly new is the fashion of using fur for a sleeveless Jumper worn Alice White, Motion Picture Actress, Wears Leopardikin Coat, under a coat of another kind of fur A model of this type Is of creamy tan pony skin, while the Jumper is of ermine dyed a pale cafe au lalt shade A skirt of wool crepe matching the Jumper Is worn Alice White, motion picture player, claims that a leopardskln coat makes sports a pleasure Her new outing wrap Is one of Hollywoods latest contributions to feminine style marts Church Unable to Cure All Evils Brought On by Modern Civilization By DR S PARKES 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 the voters could be induced to go to the polls in  Jhe last two Presidential elections Boy Guidance Plan Big Factor in Giving Aid to Ambitious Youth By J B SHAW, Dean of Men, Iowa State CollefS That many boys go to college with no definite purpose, except tt ret through with s minimum of exertion is the main rosso why a ehsii f boy guidance ihould be established in erery schooL We wed men in erery send to listen to the boys sanations and gain their confidence We need men

Evening Wraps Are of the Dolman Family The marked favor that la shown a dolman silhouette Is reflected In the new 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 Galoshes in Tan, Gray TweedLike Material Galoshes in tan or gray tweedlike material are of interest since they are In harmony with the costume colors and with furs The modem galosh Is not as high as formerly and often theres a little turndown cuff at the top Knitted wool spats with

dress, but for daytime wear it is the fabric supreme An exquisite flesh tint was selected for the frock here shown Longer Skirts Are Worn  by the Women of Paris Are the skirts worn by American women shorter Than those seen In FarLs This question was put to one of the most famous French couturiers upon his arrival In this country re cently How can I tell, was his an swer I have so far seen only the customs Inspectors, and customs inspectors do not wear skirts But, he continued, in Paris this winter the women wear skirts a little longer not much, In some cases only sn Inch or sobut they are longer Another Important fashion point given by this man, whose house has dressed the courts of Europe for three generations, Is that In order to coun teract the tendency toward masculine severitywhich since the war has been so evident ID fashionsthe best designers contrive in the most subtle way to emphasize femininity Waistlines sre accentuated but not the unyielding round waistlines of a decade  ago Instead the graceful molded lines call to mind Diana of the Hunt with her floating draperies that subtly define the natural beautiful lines of the figure In the fashions created for the Riviera and for resorts In America, white stands out as the shade of greatest Importance Next comes a tone of rosy red and then the flower tints of pink, green and violet used with such discretion

express himself enough He gradually retires within himself and loses his ability to speak fluently Terminals that curl back underneath the line are signs of a person who will hold his own if he has to

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 touch of decoration to the side or front Velvet, satin and lame dresses are only types that can be worn with these hats and headdresseschiffon and georgette dresses are much toe youthful to be combined with orna ments Does He Love Nature The nature lover Is always a big soul at heart He cannot coop himself up in a small dark room in some garret In a city and spend his life there neglectful and Ind the be found in  life His spirit flows and his arms are wide open to life Therefore you will find in his writing a suggestion of big ness of souia live and let live spirit Look for large 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, perhaps twice as long a9 me upper loop, then you hare a writer who loves the outofdoors There will be a suggestion of harmony in the writing, too, like a flowing brook This writer likes the music of nature T bars will be made with a wave, leneral appearance will be distinctive and neat  Writers who are often out with nature a lot write a slipshod and messy letter but they do not reaMy revere nature The true lover nf nature makes his ts and ds and t bars reach upward The whole line of

arrives reaching you be fore he PROFITABLE AG TO BREED GILTS The majority of gilts used for breeding 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,

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

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 pulljt off with the

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

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

for reply There is nothing more attractive than the colonial type of architecture for the home The even balance of the exterior and the clapboard siding and shuttered windows may be rather severe, but 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

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 corporation The whole thing was to be dune on a high planeno

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

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

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

particular crook found It convenient to have six or aeveat nctttlooa 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

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 in a majority of cases is successful Certain judges in the city courts elected for short terms have been known to be more soliictious about a criminals rights than those of the public, especially if he has political pull The last public execution in Michigan took place in 1846 Do you want to go back 80 years In those days executions were public and the people came from far and hejar to witness

dogs The method proposed to Mrs August Belmont to protect her sheep from dogs, namely by hanging bells about their necks would have worked satisfactorily, something, which I can verify from personal experience for last sixty years It seems strange to me at this late date that this simple idea should not be generally known whereever sheep are kept My father owned a farpi near Bound Brook, New Jersey On the ,farm we keptregularly frorir4Qto 200 breeding ewes During ail those many years we never had a sheep bitten by n dog This was entirely due to bells on from onethird to onehalf of the number of sheep in the flock The bells uned to be of good size and the best pattern for this size is the open clapper cow bell When a dog gets into a bunch of these bells the din is so great that he

plenty of discussion, not only in the legislature, but through the press and pulpit Ministers will thunder their views from pulpits,and the columns of the newspapers will be filled with views of editors and their readers Sentiment at the present time strms more evenly divided than ever before Many brutal murders in the tate in recent months have recruited new converts to the belief that hang ing is a preventative for the crime of murdr Everybody seems agreed that puni hment for those guilty of murder has been notoriusly lax in this state In his first message to the h gislaturo Governor Fred W Green dwelt at length upon the subject of crime and its punishment, but not once did he plead for a return to capital punishment He has given his pledge that court sentences in this state will be will be recognized as long as he is governor With his assurance that a life sentence for the crime of murder will mean just what it implies, we vender if the legislature can consistentantly ask him to sponsor a nvasure that has failed to reduce murdnr in states where it is written into the law, and which in itself is a long swi ep backward in the treatment of crime What anomaly Even in states

Important looking Our long, long bills are so unasuai Now some animals and some people look so much alike You cant tab them apart very well But there la no mistaking a pelican Ton might see two little birds be ta quite different families and Wa Havt 8ucrtlong, Golden Brown Bills or1 Beake fOQ would not be able to tell which as belonged to which family Ton might forget the family name or yon might forget which family of birds It was which looked that way, tat pelican Is a family name Dot easily forgotten and pelican looks are full of distinction and difference The pelican Is unmistakably a pelican But I began to talk about par tis Well, It is true, as I said, I call lota of things parties When 1 was but a little pelican and found my fish meals In my mothers bill I thought that was a pnrty 1 culled It a party then and were I a small pelican today I would still cail it a party Of course I still am young, but 1 am not as young as all that I call it a party to think that while I was brown when I wus first hatched I um while now Of course the brown lellcans are brown still I That is why they have that family name Theyre handsome birds, too Maybe you will chink It Is conceited of me to say that they are hundsome  birds, too, but I cannot help but think Im handsome And Im reully not conceited about It us I give credit to the pelican family in general, und not to ftiyself in particular, for my beauty They, too, have good appetites Now I cull mealtime a party 1 think all pelicans do We enjoy our food That is the way L think stomachs should be I think It would be very sad to look at food one wanted to eat and not be able to eat it because ones stomach could not hold any more I wouldnt call it a party if such a thing happened to me I can eat all I want to eat Then I call it a party when I swim Swimming Is such fun I swim so easily for my nice, generoussized webbed feet can help get me through the water mighty quick Im like a person who hurries out to the market before everything gets snapped up and I am even superior to such a person for I would hurry along so fast that my market couldnt get away from me I call mealtime a splendid party Then when we have a nice island home I call It a party home for so many of us make a home together We live in big colonies, you may know or you may not know And in case you do not know I am telling you If you do know I hope you wont mind hearing this again I call It a party when we decide wed like to travel and settle for awhile somewhere else We arent so full of local pride that we wont see the whole world If we so wish It At least we will go atraveling and lots of us will suddenly decide npon it and we will be off, going toward what we have decided will be our new home But at the present moment 1 am sleepy and

more Into details and say you must never burn this wood, for, If If cracks and sputters in the burning some one will die The sassafras was formerly called saxafras and thus appears to have become mixed up In folklore with quite another genus, the genus saxifrnga, the stonebreaker of the Romans As the saxifrage commonly grows In rocky places forcing Its way from the Interstices of the stones, It was considered by the Romans as a cure for calculi, acting by sympathetic maple Both In the sassafras and the saxifrage medicinal virtues have been ascribed from time Immemorial and from time immemorial the saxifrage has been considered a mystic plant Its mystic qualities have been communicated along with Its nearname to our common saecafraa, formerly saxafras When sassafras Is mentioned In modern folklore It may mean either sassafras or saxifrage One legend connected with the azlfrage is that when that rather haxy Hungarian king, Chalha, after a great battle with his brother, saw the field strewn with his wounded he was miraculously directed to try sassafras and, plucking Kent handfuls of the plant, cured 15,000 of his men by its application To use as firewood a plant possessed of such mystic and therapeutic powers as the saxifrage was naturally accounted arannc the an denta as a crime a destroying of a gift of the gods and therefore calculated to bring bad luck to the destroyer The belief that the cracking and snapping of the wood as it burns Indicates a death comes from a nntural association of ideas Every crack and snap calls attention to the fart that something Is them being destroyed which might save a human life something that for want of which some one will die Thua the current superstition regarding sassafras in herited from saxifrage 2 by McClurt

MAT THE ape of twentyone I was  at Yale, from where I graduated a year later I wanted to be an illustrator or painter but my father outargued me on that point That was In ISM, the year of the worlds fair In Chicago I had a friend out there who invited me to visit him and I went, intending to stay a week and then come home and look for a Job The whole scheme und the buildings of the fair fascinated me so much that I stayed a month, studying them and asking questions about them, and when I came bad KasSI knew what I was going to he I found a position with distinguished New York architects Hut I found I was not even the beginnings of an architect, but an office boyDonn Barber Mr Barber, one of this countrys greatest architects, won nine medals at the Ecole des Beaux Arls in

desire, perhaps, for further Interchange of courtesies Do not gush or make a fuss over your hostess, Be courteous, affable, pleasant, and show her by your visit that you are glad of her acquaintance Do not wriggle or twist sbout on your chair Sit evenly and quietly, without crossing and uncrossing your knees half a dozen times Do not gossip or talk too much about your own affairs If there are several persons In a room, do not buttonhole one and carry on a private conversation Talk generally, quietly and with what Interest you can Do not attempt to kiss your hostess unless she makes the advance Women of good breeding do not often kiss each other In public It is a pretty custom, held In check, but greatly abused Neither should one be promiscuous with other manifestations of affection, such as holding another by the elbow, hugging or pawing In any way One can show affectiou In other ways than by public demonstration And as for the utterly unbridled, senseless and meaningless parade of expressions of affection like sweetheart love, darling, and similar words, the effect to one who really cares for words Is nauseating, The toofamiliar clerk who calls you dearie, and the woman who doesnt care any more about you than she does for forty others and still calls you sweetheart, are on a level Words and hands should keep their places, and then, when they do steal away to pleasured uses, they will mean something, which Is what they do not do, used promiscuously When the time comes to go, get up easily Shake hands with your host ess, make some pleasant remarkand go The people who are always talking about going and are the last to lcvo, are dreadful bores Stand not upon the order of your goinghut go at once, Is a motto that many a hostess would be glad to have framed and hung over her door Never nversthy It Is better to have your hostess wish you had stayed longer than have her regret that you stayed so long If there are any elderly people In the room pay them special deference If there are very young people, treat them as if they were grown up Give them a word or two of real conversation, and do not talk down to them They hate It If n caller arrives before yon, as

Onancock, VaWatts island, in Tangier sound, deserted some years ago because the erosion caused by tides was making It unsafe for habitation, Is coming Into Its own again Once a prosperous community of fishermen and truckmen growing vegetables for Baltimore markets, it degenerated Into a wilderness of brambles Then the tides cut in on the highlands until It was bisected Since then the two islands have been known as Big Watts and Little Watts One man feels the tides will not wipe out the island Charles Hanlenburg of Jersey City has taken up a home on Little Watts in the deserted lighthouse and has gone Into the raising of sheep on the big Island The IRI4 contains 2nO acres of fertile land and It is the Intention of Mr Hardenburg to stock It with highgrade sheep The work has begun PhiladelphiaIf the atom nuclei, which speeds through the air at the rate of 1,200 miles per second, could be separated from the electron, which u gathers during the night, and tightly packed together in one solid muss, the weight alone of one cubic Inch of such matter would exceed 100,00,000 io Dn jgajl Frederich Schlisaei, one of Germanys most eminent KleTitistb, touring the United States, and incidentally attending the sessions of the American scientist here, said in an delusive interview The time is not far distant, only a few hundred years, in the manner in which science measures time, said Doctor Schllaael when, with liberation of the atom, man will forget there ever was such a thing as poverty and suffering As a matter of fact, he will have no worries, wont even have to work It is common knowledge, said Doctor Schlissel, that alchemy years ago ceased to be a mere superstition, because of the achievements thus far recorded by science in the ascertainment of radioactive substances For example let us take a lump of coal Science has ascertained that the lump U simply an incomprehensibly large number of electrical par ticles clustering together Now if these particles In that lump of coal could be liberated and controlled They would provide vastly more power than would be needed to operate all the machinery ever constructed throughout the whole world Again, for example, if the hydrogen contained in two teaspoonfuls of  water were converted Into helium, it is reasonable to believe that 200,000 kilowatt hours of energy would be liberated It Is my honest conviction along scientific lines that the time is coming, say in about 200 years, when the energy of the atom will be so concentrated as to do the work of the entire human race Plant Life Is Traced to North PoleOrigin PhiladelphiaThe evolution of modern plants and of modern climates began together at the North pole some six or seven million years ago, when the last of the dinosaurs were still lumbering about the earth It continued with increasing speed through the tertiary age, which followed, untJl the comparatively recent time of the glaciers It was during this time, ac cording to the record of the rocks, that the plunts of the earth began to show evidences of being divided into growth zones influen ed by disnate until then all the earli r plants ware of types such as now grow la tbo tropics, and they were distributed evenly over the whole earth, Indlcat ing the prevalence of a uniformly warm climate At the meeting of the American Botanical society here Dr Arthur Holtlck of the New York Botanical Gar den outlined the evidence for his theory that the first temperate zone plant life evolved in the polar regions The higher forms of flowering plants, he said, are primarily adaptations to a climate of alternating warm and cold seasons, and their final Invasion of the still uniformly warm tropics has been recent and Is a matter of competition with the plants they found there rather than a response to a  climatic urge It is in the tropics today that the only relics of the vegetation of an earlier world, the eyenda and similar plants, remain to contest with the late coming modern plants for a foothold Plant fossils of tertiary age from the  tropics are very little different from the living plants of thp same regions, whereas tertiary fossils from the regions of the earth where winter comes show evidences of radical and rapid evolution Leading Sport Riga, N Y Wild dog hunting is the Ipadlng sport here Several packs of wild dogs have wandered through the

From the SenateMore Money for Army By EDWARD W PICKARD F RANK L SMITH, senatorelect and senatordesignate from Illinois, is not to be permitted to take a seat in the senate, at least until the committee on privileges and elections has paused on his qualifications By a  rote of 48 to 33 the senate on Thursday withheld the oath of office from him Twentynine Republicans and flour Democrats voted in favor of seating Smith, and 15 Republicans and 3J Democrats against him Mr Smith appeared In the senate chamber Wednesday and submitted his credentials in  the form ot an appointment by Governor Small Senator Deneen of Uli ols at once moved that Smith be worn in pending reference of the  charges against him to the privileges and elections committee Senator Hoed ot Missouri moved that the oath be withheld temporarily, contending tiiat Smiths disqualification already bad been established by the investigation of the Illinois primary slush fond scandal conducted by the special committee of which Reed is chairman General debate on the matter was thus opened, and for hours the senators disc visaed the problem, some holding that the senate had no power over Smith until he became a member, and others demanding that he be  refused the oath of office Constitutional points were argued and prece dents brought forward and while naturally no one defended Smiths acceptance of campuiga funds from Sam  InsolL, public utilities magnate, the nnmber of those who defended his  right to be sworn In wts rather surprising Next day the debate was resumed and a vote taken, with the result noted above The committees inquiry may not be corn pre ted for several weeks, possibly not before March  4, ae then Is little chance for Smith to get in this session The vote seemed to make it certain he will be barred also by the new senate P RESIDENT COOLIDGES economy program for the army was knocked galleywest by the house, which ap proved of appropriations totaling 280,614,674 for the strictly military activities of the War department This Bkakes available 6,477,000 more than was recommended by the budget bu reau One provision maintains the en listed personnel strength of the army at 118,750 Other sections increase the army ration allowance from 3374 cents a day per man to approximately 4P cents a day by adding 2,688,589 to lib budgeffs estimates, provide for the purchase of 1,1500 more horses and 725 more mules than the budget would have allowed, provide 942,f30 more ilsr National Guard activities, 44tf,W8 more for the organized reserves, and 382,410 more for the

wai Just barely lest in the house, and the committee amended the house navy supply bill by Including that feature, increasing the total voted by the lower chamber by 5,267,854 This nras highly pleasing to the strong aational defense advocates, but word came promptly from the White Hoase that the President would veto the blU If it went to hlrn carrying the provision for building additional cruisers this year He still feels that this weald be a step toward precipitating another naval armament race and would be a violation of the spirit of the Washington arms treaty B t  rote of 50 to 34, six short of the necessary twothirds, the senate rejected the Lausanne treaty with or the ratification of which a and earnest campaign had been so and vfhlch bad been defeated for many bearsIn executive sesdteo The treaty was sponsored by djha admlnlstratlen and supported by  Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign reiutions committee Senators Swanson and King led the opposition, con tending that the pact gives up historic guarantees of justice for Americans in Turkey without securing adequate safeguards in their place, that it in  effect acquiesces in the Turkish refusal to recognize American naturali zation laws in so far as they affect Turks who return to their native land that it fails adequately to protect the charitable and philanthropic enter prises of Americans in Turkey, and that it abandons Armenia, notwithstanding pledges that its Independence would e secured Nearly all other nations have made similar treaties with Turkey, and there have been warnings of retaliatory action against American interests in that country if the treaty were not ratified D ECLARING that governmental assistance is necessary in dealing with the agricultural problem, the house committee on agriculture reported favorably the Huugen farm re lief bill Speaking for the committee, Chairman Haugen said The big problems of American agriculture to day are beyond the power of individual farmers or of their relatively small organizations to solve These problems arise because the prices of farm products are uncertain and unprofit able due 1 to seasonal variations In  yield and 2 to competition with the products of European and Asiatic peasant labor and of new lands with low production costs The best Judgment is that the remedy wiil be found  in carrying products over from fat years to lean years and equating a price based on  supply and demand over a period of years rather than for one year, and 2  In managing the surplus so as to make the tariff on agricultural products effective when necessary to maintain stable markets To do these things requires a Reservoir of money and credit after the manner of the capital stock of the federal reserve bankB R EVERSING the finding of an Ohio Federal District court, the Supreme court of the United States In a unanimous opinion atttrroed the right of the senate to compel the appearance of witnesses before its committees, to force the production of books and  records and to punish for contempt those witnesses who refuse to testify The opinion was in the case of Mai  S Daugherty, brother of the former attorney general, and he was remanded to the custody of the senates sergvant at arms Members of the senate interpreted the finding as ample grounds for the punishment of Samuel Lnsull, utilities magnate States Attorney Robert E Crowe, and Edward H Wright, colored member of  the Illinois state commerce commission, all of Chicago, for their refusal to  testify during the investigation of the recent Illinois senatorial primary W HATEVER may be the outcome of his other troubles, President Caiies of Mexico has succeeded in one of his aims He has conquered the  hitherto unconquerable iaqui Indians of Sonora Their lenders, including  Chief Luis Matus and eight governors of pueblos, presented to General Man J zo, commander of the federal troops, j  a document offering to surrender unconditionally, to give up their arms and to support the government in its fight against its enemies This offer was accepted by President Calles and Minister of War Amaro The Yaquls who were short of money, food and ammunition, said they had been deceived by the De la Huerta party and by agents in the United States and  induced to rebel The war against them lasted six months and the government built a great military road 300 miles long that completely surrounded the Indians In the Bacatete mountain region Catholic rebels in the state of Jalisco sustained a severe defeat by the fed eral troops under General Kerera at  Atotonilco and lost that town It was asserted in Mexico City that these rebels wvre lead by Blsho Orozco y Jiminez of Guadalajara, but this U doubted by the close friends of that prelate In the state of Zacatecas the  rebels were reported as making a strong attack on Nochlstan ThU matter of the Catholic rebellion caused a lively debate in the United Statea senate when Heflln af  Alabama made an attack on the Knights of Columbus, asserting they were trying to Involve the United States in war with Mexico because of that countrys treatment of the Catholic church His charges were strongly assailed by Walh of Massachusetts, Ransdell of Louisiana and Ashurst of Arizona, all Democrats and all Catholics  by Bruce ot Maryland and Reed of Missouri, who also are Democrats The senate also took cognizance of the dispute over the Mexican oil and land laws Senator Robinson of Arkansas offered a resolution declaring it the sense of the senate that the dispute should be settled by arbitration, and Secretary of State Kellogg promptly issued a statement declaring that he elcomed Robinsons suggestion and had already been considering the possibility of applying the principle of arbitration to the question The Mexican government accepted ar bitration in principle Alberto J Pani, Mexican minister of finance and the close friend of Wall street, leaders, resigned his portfolio last week after a long struggle against the more radical men in the Calles government It was understood he  would be appointed ambassador to Paris D LSPATCHES from Nicaragua say Dr Juan B Sacasa, leader of the liberal rebels of Nicaragua, has rejected an offer from President Diaz for a peace conference, Reports from Puerto Cabezas, the liberal headquarters, are that the revolutionists are planning new attacks against Presi dent Diaz forces aiong the Escondldo river Possibly to head off this movement, Admiral Latimer landed more American marines under the command of Capt John W Thomasson, the author of Fix Bayonets Sacasa said his troops had defeated the conservstlves at San Pedro In an interview he termed ridiculous and absurd the statements that he has bolsbeviitlc tendencies A NTIFOREIGN sentiment in China Is increasing to an alarming extent and the foreigners are being re moved from the danger zones as rapidly as possible The week started with a serious riot In Foochow where foreign women were beaten and  dragged through the streets and several ministers were roughly treated All the foreign schools, churches and hospitals were plundered, and a lot of Chinese orphan girls were abducted The British government is frankly apprehensive and Is hurrying large reinforcements to Shanghai Assurances have been given that France will cooperate in the defense of the foreign concessions there and elsewhere The French concession in Shanghai houses more than a thousand Americans Preparations are being made to withstand a native strike and boycott like that at Hankow The northern troops under Marshal Sun still control Shanghai and its environs but probably cannot stand against the attack which the Cantonese are planning to make Immediately So far the American naval forces over there have only been called on to rescue endangered Americans F EDERAL JUDGE WILKERSON in Chicago approved the sale of the Chicago, Milwaukee  St Paul rail way and control of ihe company passed from federal receivership and into the hands of the National City company of New York and Kuhn, Loeb  Co The court also approved the reorganization plans but these must have the consent of the Interstate Commerce commission Coincident with Judge Wilkersons decree, announcement was made by  Ralph Budd, president of the Great Northern railway, that plans are being concluded for a closer alliance among the Great Northern, the Burlington, and the Northern Pacific  roads, socalled Hill lines, dominated by the Morgan financial interests A LMOST before it was In print the prediction that Doctor Curtlns would fail

among the athletic boys and arfksfjt among the bespectacled bookworms The boy and girl who take active interest in athletics and participate in the games hare tot much to thing of, too much demand on their energy, to hare time and surplus energy to devote to immorality The finest thing which is said of athletics is that it tends to increase morality and moral standards among our young people, gives then a bet ter and cleaner outlook on life and a better appreciation of, the advantage and desirability of having clean, wholesome minds as well as clean, wholesome bodies There will be no effort to force girls back into costumes which have become passe because of their cumbersomeness There Is a great deal more harm in suggestiveness than in frankness No encouragement to immodesty will be tolerated, but immodesty must be judged by the con sensus, conditions at the time, the appropriateness of the costume and demeanor of the wearer We are going ahead with the development of interest in clean wholesome sports among our boys and girls because we are convinced that not only are such things good to help build clean, strong bodies but are of material help in building clean, strong minds, and whether a knee shows or not is regarded as of little consequence by our boys and girls Standardized Studies Not the Best Form of Education for American Youth  Know Your Sweetheart by Hie Handwriting jfett JlgNA PURDY WALSH k  Good Health By DR C W BURR, University of Pennsylvania The schooling of all boys more than ten years old should be entirely to the hands of men One fundamental error in our public schools is the effemination of our educational system This is true not only in things intellectual but in character formation All education above the elementary school should be given only te those worth while About the twelfth or thirteenth year a split occurs toward handraindedness or bookmindedness And the handminded boy should be put to work as soon as he shows his trend, instead of being kept in school The primary purpose of education is to prepare the child for the battle of life, to make him a worthy cituen scholarship is secondary The two aims are moral training, to form character and intellectual training training in straight thinking Is the American public school system the best possible for this purpose I doubt it It offers to all children the same mental food prepared in the same way, and assumes, what every clearthinking man knows to be untrue, the mental equality of men It also assumes that character depends on environment, that every child comes into the world a piece of wax, as far as the moral sense and mind are concerned, and can be molded as those who have the care and teaching of him desire This is also untrue Conduct and behavior, which are the test of character, depend fundamentally upon heredity and congenial influences Environment may modify for good or evil, but cannot alter inherent qualities can destroy, but cannot create

unfortunate social conditions today Ignorance of the Bible is an incalculable loss from the standpoint of education and culture, but morally and spiritually the loss is still more serious How much of the present lawlessness, how much of the present lowering of social and moral standards, how much of the  present increase of crime in our land can be traced to and accounted for by neglect of the Bible and by absence of religious teaching from our schools Research of modern scholars has not hurt the validity of the Bible I say without hesitation that no fact or truth which Biblical scholarship has established conflicts with, or tends to weaken, full belief in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in the fact of his birth to the Bussed Virgin Mary, in the reality of His resurrection from the grave or His ascension into heaven Simple Capitals Even Spacing men coming home to straighten every picture on the wall and look into every corner, with a critical little pinched nose, held high in the air But there is an aristocratic cleanliness to look for in a sweetheart His capital letters will be minus ostentatious curves and curlicues The  man who pens an absolutely plain capital is much more likely to be not  only a real man but an artistic and aristocratic one as well, In his soul The pinching of words close together shows stinginess of mind The very uneven spacing between words Indicates, together with blurs, blots, t crosses all placed at different relations to the bar, uneven shadings, and snaillike scrolls to the capitals, not only a lack of order about the personality, but very often commonplace desire for show Carefully placed t bars and 1 dots, with even slope of writing and even slope between the words, indicate neatness, even though the writing be vertical, backhand, or slanting Train of Evils in Constant Changefulness of  Modern Times By REV HARRY EMERSON FOSDICK, New York City Few problems are more serious than the effect which the shifting changefulness of modern life is having upon us here in New York All  the winds that blow on earth blow through this town, and in a city where so many shifting winds blow the temptation to be weatherrvanes is very strong We give this attitude a fine nameopenmindedness Now, if  by openmindedness we mean a gracious, tolerant, teachable spirit, never dogmatic, always ready to learn, that is a great virtue but it is a corresponding pity that openmindedness should degenerate, as it so often  docs, into so futile a vice I am not pleading that anyone accept my positive convictions about lifes abiding truth, its deep faiths, hopes and loves, but surely, no one  can be so blind as not to find here, if he looks for them, some convictions of his own to which his mind assents and for which he knows he ought to live Reasons Why Back to Farm Movement Is  Largely an Economic Fallacy By WILLIAM LLOYD DAVIS, Municipal University of Akron Back to the farm is a pretty sentiment but an economic fallacy so far as modern life is concerned The backtothefarm movement would be all right if it meant more abundant life, such as a wealthy man might find in a suburban home, but it no longer means that for we have too many farmers now One or two farm hands now do the work done by 15  not many years ago That is because 3 per cent of the wheat, 60 per cent of the butter and 95 per cent of the hay are produced by machines To find the proper comforts for himself, his wife and children, the schools and other advantages, a man must go where hs can earn money with which to purchase them That means he must go where the machines are, to ths industrial centers of the nation What Capital Letters Mean You can readily tell the characteristic of ambition by the capital letters found in the writing If these are Igh, you may decide that the writer v has soaring ambl tlons He will at  tain these ambi tions if his writing is simple and many of the letters are  printed If there njPjkjf are a lot of flour Jfti Ishes and fancy scorings you will know that you have to deal with a romancer Great inflation of loops indicates strong pride and some love of admira tion When the first part of a capita Is wrapped around the main stroke, the writer is generally found to be wrapped up in himself Low capitals indicate a lack of selfesteem Ornate capjtals show a lore of display nd these writers believe that externals count They see little of the real character underneath the surface Printed capitals are made by men and women who respect form and who are precise and exact Surgeons and architects often make these This writer is unassuming NotDo not make final Judgment ntil other Mgrna in writing are studied j ftesi stance of Phones I Many people have the mistaken ne riou that the resistance of

Born In England The captain was born at Gravesenr, England, with the smell of salt in his nostrils The county of Kent has raised many great men of the sea and tales of their exploits were the captains heritage His earliest memory is of the great white sails of the schooners slipping up the Thames toward London, their holds filled with merchandise from all parts of the world The family moved to the United States when the captain was a small boy, but the love and tradition of the sea were instilled in him and with his first long trousers be answered the call But with the passing of the stately schooners and the advent of steam the captain became restless The snap of a sheet in a good wind was life to him It was then he built his own craft and put to sea as a sailor should His first craft was the Sir Francis which met grief on the coast of Mex ico five years ago A mighty gale picked the little ship up one black night and cast it against a reef The captain, clinging to wreckage, was washed ashore, only to fall into the hands of Mexican bandits The out laws stripped him of his clothes and his few valuable possessions For two weeks he was kept prisoner, locked up In a filthy cabin with little food Arrival of federal troops delivered him when the bandits fled, leaving him behind From Mexico 1 made my way back to Frisco, the captain relates It was a hard, long Journey with a job

will stand heavy pressure was proved in an exhibit which the poultry depart ment at the College of Agriculture at Ithaca displayed at the New York state fair A 16pound steel sledge hammer was arranged so that It came down on the egg once a minute, being raised and lowered automatically The egg was placed on a scale which registered the pressure extra weight waa applied and the egg stood the weight of 23 pounds, or ail thut the scales would register A special trial wus made when still more weight was applied on the handle of the sledge, and it 1 estimated that the egg stood more than 50 pounds pressure before it broke The purpose of the demonstration was to show the pressure that an ordinary egg would stand, and to show why it was desirable to produce egg with strong shells Strong shelled eggs ship best, and evaporate least this prolongs their freshness, and pleases the consumer, because a greater proportion of them reach the mar ket in good condition This is the first time such an arrangement has been used to demonstrate the strength of the shells of hen  eggs, according to C K Powell, ln charge of the exhibit Usually, the breaking strength has been tested hy pressing the eggs

good suc cess, as it Insures every bird receiving the proper share Keep the droppings removed from the houses, and distribute them as far as possible from the poultry houses and range This helps to keep down the Infestation of worms Laying Hens Need Good, Palatable Grain Mash A good mash should be fed to laying hens, according to G L, Stevenson, head of the department of poultry husbandry at South Dakota State college The mash used at State college consists of onefourth part of oilmeal to one part each of bran, middlings, tankage, ground oats and cornmeal when it Is not too high Ciround barley Is now being used In place of cornmeal Two pounds of charcoal are also mixed with each 00 pounds of meal, and about onehalf pound of salt Is mixed per 100 potinds of meal The salt makes the

to force heavy egg production through feeding where birds are to be used for breeding pens    It Is a good scheme to plow or spade up the poultry runs each spring in order to get rid of worms that

SANITARIUM The fireworks over the new T B Sanitarium which is to be located at Ann Arbor0 still continue in the legislature Senator Bollin Person of this district has introduced a bill in the legislature to repeal the bill passed in 1925 appropriating 500,000 for the construction of the new Ann Arbor institution and spend a sum on the Howell Sanitarium sufficient to put it in first class running orderHe charg ed that locating the Sanitarium at Ann Arbor was a bit of by play by Ex Governor Groesbeck for votes and a retalation on Livingston county for failure to support him The run down condition of the Howell institution is due he said that while Dr Pierce, tlje head for many years was all that was to be desired as a doctor he was no politian and was unable to get appropriations for his hospital Senator Persons bill was sent to the couimittee  One day last week later, he appeared before a meeting of the State T B Society at Lansing and saying that he knew the meeting was stacked against him repeated his attack on the removal of the Sanitarium from Howell The members of the society denied there had been any spite work in the selection of the Ann Arbor site but said it had been chosen because it was the most desirable from a medical standpoint COMMUNICATION Editor Pinckney Dispatch The argument against capital punishment, advanced in your last issue, justifies these few observations but it is to be hoped without incuring a charge of egotism The first most glaring fault is in confusing the mortal body with the immortal soul fur ther confusing the function of the court, a mortal execution, with the power of the Almighty God, the In fallible And then you confuse of course, the punishment of the body, which is a mere incident with the judgement for the soul which is to be eternal May God Have Mercy on your Soul is a proper prayer from the court, for it indicates the only proper source of mercy to the soul The entire line of reasoning, if it may be so termed, we are beginning tohear, in dicates a lack of understanding and a tendency toward slopppy thinking on the part of the public, all of which might be cause of anxiety under a system wherein the wisdom of legislation is pronounced to be no 1  higher than the wisdom of the Vox Populi For example the prattle about the murder of a convict com ing from those who fail utterly, to conceive the meaning of murder for if they only knew the proper definition of the term excludes the taking J of human life by the state  THE GOODYEAR SERVICE STATION  s SPECIALS THIS WEE AT BARNARDS ALL ENGLISH

Worman on Feb 16 Sorrowfully stated, but truly, the want of faith appears faith in the power of God, in the immortality of the soul God is infinitely above the State punishment of the convict, even loss of life is no indication of Divine wrath and the worst criminal is not to be denied the hope of life eternal if his faith in God and the hope of Gods mercy survives in him at the awful moment of

hunihe Un of Good TO HANG OR NOT TO HANG TheLegislaturc of our State of Michigan are now engaged in considering a change in the law for the punishment of murder Here is a queathat couWbe debated, pro and con, until the youngest and last member of that learned gathering of solons had no one left to argue with Would it lessen crime if the law provided crime or state prison for life Well your guess is just as good asanothers and no better Both methods have been and are now in use in the United States, and in the world at large and and murder goes on and on everywhere Murder begun if you believe the Bible when there were only four inhabitants on the earth It would seej that even that small number of four was one too many Cain was not hung or imprisonedhe got married As the Bible, loaches, a crime that would not give one a jail sentence is punishable far worse than hanging or imprison ment, both of these punishments have an ending on earth The Bible further teaches us that we have only to confess, be sorry and ask God to forgive us and punishment ends In Michigan law as it now stands is built on the same lines Call on the Governor, confess, ask forgivness, and you can vote at the next election Hanging a murderer would give the Governor quite a rost frm overwork at least If we in our childhood or manhood felt quite sure that punishment would follow breaking of the law it would put a Four Wheel Brakeon our action The Michigan Legislator who Retires to lessen crime, can do a great service to his constituents if he can make over the laws for trial in court on the lines of Englands proceedures That government was in much the same condition as we are now in Mich igan England tried out the most cruel punishment theory, and it failedEng land revised and changed court proceedure and cut out some of the crooked and tricky plans invented by paid attorneys for keeping their guilty clients from punishment, and when crime is very likely to be punished here as it is in England, there will not be so many criminals to punish T L A VALENTINE PARTY There will be a Valentine  Party iven at the Congregational Church arlors on Monday evening, Feb 14 Mason givenby Livingston Lodge No 76 F

it is Lewis Halsteln had adopted his nephew Richard in infancy He was a queer old character he had brought the boy up In idleness, alleging that work was beneath the dignity of a gentleman That alone shows that Lewis Halstein was decidedly eccentric At twentyfour, when his nephew left college, he came home to nnd his unoie, a millionaire and more eccentric than ever Remember, Richard had never been trained to work He was about as capable of earning a living as a Polynesian set down in the streets of New York Less so, for the Polynesian could go on exhibition as the Wild Slon of Borneo and earn his two dollars a day Richard Halstein could not He looked the ordinary type of betterclass American, and there was nothing about him that would make any man look at him twice In the street Richard Hal3teln came home to fall in love with Mildred James, the daugh ter of his uncles neighbor When he heard of the engagement he was furious He turned his nephew out of his home penniless Richard seems to have had a rather hard time However, it was the uncle, who took the initiative He ask6d him back, and the butler testified that he heard the two quarreling all the evening in the old mans library He listened, as a servant will do, and heard Lewis Halsteln order his nephew out of the house for good Following  this, Richard Halsteln stamped out In a rage At nine the next morning Lewis Halsteln was found lying dead in his library, upon the floor He had evidently fallen from his chair when a shot fired from behind entered his brain Upon the table were pen and ink and paper, and It was surmised that he had intended to alter his will, which was found to be In his nephewo favor Upon the polished mahogany back of the chair on which he had been seated was found a thumbprint It was Richards That was the one fact against him The thumbprint could not have been made earlier In the evening, because the butler testified that after Richards departure he had heard the old man drug the chair from the living room it was a high chair, such as he used when writing at a table Instead of at his desk Richard was arrested and placed on trial There was no otherevidenee against him, but a thumbprint in always a thumbprint Only Miss James believed in his Innocence unless his lawyer, Tom Fellowes, did Fellowes was a queer card He had studied medicine before law, and had been expelled from the medical school for some prank He had not the best reputation as a lawyer He was fond of tackling dubious cases but he won them Perhaps he was the best lawyer Richard could have had At any rate, he struck a stroke in court which I was one of the jurymen dumfounded us and everybody He pro duced OneLamp Ike OneIamp Ike was a local character, halfwitted, against whom the worst known was robbery, petty thieving which had landed him repeatedly in Jail, and had more often still secured him a thrashing and nothing more The counsel for the state had pro dnced evidence to show that the finger print remains through life Fellowes was crossexamining his last witness You say that only two cases in a hundred million are to be found of similar thumb markings on different men, he said Are there a hundred million fingerprints in the world I dont know, responded the witness testily I havent counted them There are a good many Name the two cases In which the thumb or fingerprints were found to be the same 1 dont know of any two I believe there are none Then what is your ground for the statement that two cases occur in a hundred million I suppose that merely means that It only occurs In an impossibly large number, retorted the witness uneasily You admit, then, that you were speaking loosely I say that there are no two men In less than a hundred million with similar finger or thumbprint I will call the man known as OneLamp Ike, said Mr Fellowes The court waa agog now Fellowes purpose became evident, and there was a breathless silence as he produced a sheet of paper, a pad coated with lampblack, or some similar substance, and a magnifying glass OneIamp Ike, said Mr Fellowes, you have never had your fingerprints taken before  No, your honor answered the Imbecile, grinning, Ton didnt happen to murder Mr Halsteln, I suppose Fellowes continued OneLamp scratched hla head T dont remember of it, sir, he said I was drunk at the time Tour memory 1 not very good, 1 think r  No, your honor It waa 0 the typical eon Jurors patter Nobody took much notice of it We were tawing forward in the Jwry box, wliiU Mi lUkvvy, Uuviug completed his preparations, took One Lamps thumb, stuck it to the pad aad pressed It dbwn hard on the paper Now, he said to the court, J claim to show that the last witness was mistaken, or else that here we have the two men La a hundred mil lions with similar thumbprints, i submit this evidence to the court And he handed it up, together with the reproduction of Richards thumbprint, and the magnifying glass The court looked at it for full five minutes, turning the glass this way and that Then he had it submitted to the Jurors We scanned it There was no possibility of mistaking that the two prints were identical I propose, your honor, Baid Fellowes, that the thumbprint of the prisoner be taken again and superim posed photographically upon this The court adjourned In the greatest excitement Next day, when it recon vened, the two prints were found to coincide exactly They had been magnified a dozen times the great web of tracings uponathe paper, looking like a maze, was perfectly distinct There was the one and only pattern And, examined separately, not the smallest divergence could be found between the thumbprints of Richard Halstein and those of OneLamp Ike There was only one thing to do Hers were two men, one of whom must have committed the murder There was no possibility of collusion There was no further evidence We acquitted the prisoner by direction of the court, and he left the courtroom a free man He married Mildred James the next day, and they went West, where they are reported to be doing well One Lamp Ike came into a lot of money in some mysterious fashion a little while later, and was found drowned in a horsetrough, into which he had fallen while Intoxicated I was frankly puzzled by the coIncidence That some trick had been played seemed more probable to me than that the two men in a hundred million had really been found in the same town It was about five years after that, being then a resident In a southern town, I met Fellowes, who was practicing in some other place We became intimate, and in a burst of confidence he told me the facts Richard Halstein did kill his uncle, he said but it was only homicide Murder is what you would have found in your verdict The appearances were so much against him that it would not have been safe for him to have told the truth Iewis Halstein had pent for him, in the hope of Inducing fftm to give up Mildred James The uncle had be come almost insane over the matter his quarrel with James had been a bitter one and his mind was probably weakening from old age He drew a revolver and threatened to kill his nephew Richard grasped it, and the men fought in silence for several seconds Then his uncle, who was a strong old man, got his finger upon the trigger Richard swung the revolver round Just in the nick of time Tewls Hal stein pressed the trigger, hut the bullet went into his own brain Horrified at hia action, Richard went away hurriedly Fie wavered be tween confession and denial That was a fatal policy, foit brought the rope within an inch of his neck And the thumbprint I asked He shot a keen look at me Quite simple, he replied I dont mind telling you now OneLamp Ike wasnt such a fool as he looked, and he was quite willing to risk his neck for twenty thousand dollars You know I used to study medicine Weil, all that was necessary was to remove the outer cuticle from Richards thumb, remove the same thing from Ikes, and graft the cuticle from Richards thumb upon that of Ike Of course, in time the pattern would reassert Itself, but not till the cuticle had become connected with the fieh befleath Meanwhile, Richards had grown again Thats allbut If ever such a trick was Justi fied I think it was to save as innocent man Expended Tea Leaves Have Commercial Value A man engaged in the chemical trade hints at the money which might be made out of used tea leaves, whose only employment now, en route to tha ashpit, Is to keep the dust down whes the floor is swept Expended tea leaves are rich in tunninmost people know thst from experience chlorophyle, caffeine and other valuable products, which are not easily removed by the ordinary methods of infusion It Is calculated that orer 336,000,000 pounds weight of tea leaves were committed to the dustbin in England last year, and taking this as representing 10 per cent of tannin, which la worth about 65 cents per pound It s clear that money mlgtt be gained by Its extraction Even onefifth of the total of waste leaves, yielding only 5 per cent of tannin would represent a value of about JmoOOO The Irritating part of these revelations of potential wealth always lies In the present lack of machinery by which they could be utilized In the present case, however, the saving of tea leaves, say for a week at a time, could easily be effected and all thst Is needed is an organization for their regular collectionMontreal Herald Proof Ample So you want m marry my ter Have  went  Well, sir, your family, you any business judg1Tm trying to get hats air Rainbow Tints in New Dance Frocks Ruffled

to continue to use bargains or furniture bought in the dear dead days Just for now which they long ago outgrew In taste but which they feel they cant afford to replace They think they can afford to

your desires for beauty and comfort It shojldand believe me It can and will if you make up your mind to have it so It is not so much a matter of dollars and cents as of knowledge and taste The way to

steamroller can get in is by rail Lorries of over five tons must stop on the other side of the bridges and unload there into drays This is very expensive, and Thorne is asking for stronger bridges

It, began Larry, but once more Snookums Interrupted him by gaying So peeved means all of that you were telling me a moment or so ago 1 interrupted you and you didnt get a chance to tell me peeved really meant that Nor did you get a chance to tell me that all those things meant peeved It was my fault But now I know Isnt it a descriptive word, now, Snookums Doesnt It Just describe certain people and certain moods and the way almost everyone, once in a great while at any rate, feels Why  you take right hold of It yourself Thats so, agreed Snookums But if it is a good dictionary word and it  works so well why do you say it is slangy and that perhaps you shouldnt use it Well, said Larry, of course I use slang when Im playing, but when Im  trying to tell a story I try to use my best words and slang words are second best words, or play words I dont use slang very often because very little fpf it expresses what I feeL Host of It is somewhat stupid, bat the word peevish always sounds nice and slangy It sounds like a slang word with some sense, perhaps because it isnt a slang word after ail And I havent yet heard why you were peevish, said Snookums, or why you are peevish Our master, said Larry, what Is known as a scientist He  also known as s naturalist That means that he knows ail about natural his tory and animals and plants and science and in short that he is a very wise man

our master what he did and be said he was in the monkpy business they ail burst out laughing  The monkey business, they Uttered Now, wasnt that Ignorance They looked down upon our master, and what had they done with their lives Why, theres no science to selling s pair of pants or In handing a person money in return for a check through the paying tellers window of a bank, but to know about

director of the Lfluvrs museum write him a letter on the sub ject and th director in the letter stated that the pearls were then and had always been in a perfectly healthy state The story hafl n foundation whatever and yet ther art  thousands today who will quote yov Madame Thiers pearls as a proof ol the truth of the superstition Doctor Kanz suggests that this Ides of the sickening and death of pearls was Invented by unscrupulous person, to account for the deteriorated ap pearance of gems whlh were no good in the first place But the antiquity and ubiquity of the superstition would hardly bear out that superstition Ths origin of the superstition must b  looked for among those mystic and  mythological conceptions with which the ancients surrounded the pearl, principally It would seem because ol the to them mystery of Its origin The dews of heaven according to  Pliny, the tears of the Naiads according to the Greeks, the blood of a  princess according to the Tonqulnese, i are among the many origins anciently i  assigned for the pearl And always the pearl has been accredited with  possessing a particular affinity with Its owner or wearer Some primltivs people today wear them as amulets to bring them health and luck while others reject them as bringing bad  luck and sapping their vitality As lare as 1692 a German scientist seriously discussed the question as to whether the mysterious deaths of Popes Leo IV and Paul II might not bsve been largely caused by the grtat number of pearls those pontiffs were in the habit of wearing  by Hectare Newapaper SrnSUee 0 coooooooooc

secretary, has watched with sympathetic interest the Rationalistic awakening of China and ir Welcomes every advance made by the  Chinese people toward reorganizing rViheir system of government    The government of the United States expects, however, that the people of China and their leaders will recognise the right of American citizens in China to protection of life and property during the period of conflict for which they are not responsible In the event that the Chinese authorities are unable to afford auch protection it Is, of coarse, the fundamental duty of the United States to protect the lives and property of Its citizens It Is with the possible necessity for this in view that A merits naval forces are now in Chinese Altera  This government wishes to deal Vitb China in a most liberal spirit It holds no concessions In China and baa never manifested any Imperialistic attitude toward that country It desires, however, that Its citizens be given equal opportunity with the citi ens of the other powers to reside In China, and to pursue their legitimate occupations without special privileges, monopolies, or spheres of special interest or Influence Great Britain has recognized the growth of Chinese nationalism and the necessity for revising the unequal treaties now existing, but she is determined that the British concession at Shanghai shall not be taken from her by force Therefore 15,000 or more troops are being sent there from Eng land and India, the forces including airplanes, tank corps, hospital ship and nurse and medical units The first of these troops to arrive In Shanghai were the royal Indian Punjab troops from Hongkong A thou sand marines led the movement from England, and they were followed rapidly by other detachments The for eign concessions at Shanghai were surrounded by strong barbed wire entanglements, all approaches were cov ered by heavy artillery and machine ,pfpt, guns, great stores of munitions were laid in and warehouses and public buildings were turned into barracks The foreign settlement authorities planned the establishment of R neutral area five miles wide about the dry, and the conservative lenders of the Chinese nationalists indorsed this idea, asking United 8tates Consul Genera Gauss to undertake estnhlish ment of such a sone They Raid the landing of British troops ws likely to precipitate antlforeignism and that the Cantonese were ready to aree not to advance their troops nearer to  Shanghai than 25 miles in order that TtSf might be preserved there B TA unanimous rote79 to Vthe StoaTe adopted the Robinson resolution,, indorsing arbitration of the 4Jpe with Mexico over the right of the Canes government to expropriate fee properties of American citizens neauifd before the Mexican constftttyon of 117 went into effect Thus the senate Is on record an opposed to the policy of the administration, which has been in effect that the right to confiscate those properties without compensation is not subject to arbitration Should the President carry out his implied threat to withdraw recognition of the CalJes government he presumably would not be backed up by the senate, and the house might follow the exumple of the upper chamber Though they all voted for the resolution, some of the senators expressed rants of Its wisdom, among them be Klng of Utah, Democrat, and Lenf Wisconsin, Republican Heflin ama broke loose again, advo ie measure, attacking the Ld Reed of Missouri and ission a political nad it was not wr understood ition e ex carganlf the settle than Ht In  Prob and exieo think

of the body The commission during its first year is given power to classify radio sta tions, prescribe the nature of the service to be rendered by each class of licensed stations and each station within any class, assign bands of frequencies of wave lengths, determine the location of classes of stations or individual stations, regulate the Wnd of apparatus to be used by stations, make suah

Great Help in Bringing About Realization of God By DR HENRY VAN DYKE, Chicago Men of science are helping more than men of theology In bringing about a recognition of God in His universe and to stabilize our wabbly times This age is afflicted with spiritual unrest, hysteria and general wabbliness, because we have learned a lot about the world but have not made a corresponding advance in how to use this knowledge without abusing it It is a time of high velocity, vague direction and unreliable control, producing mental agitation and sometimes spiritual collapse The only cure is real religion To be without God is to be without hope, and men of science are helping more than men of theology in bringing about a realization of God in His universe Science is prov ing that everywhere is the reign of law, and you cant have that without a lawgiver Many are asking now about the future of the churches The church must have its ups and downs, but it will not die if it does its duty, sticks to the task of making the world better, discerns the signs of the times and accepts the facts science has proved that be ion,  pool lally average number laid per hen was 128 and the feed cost per ben for the yeajtj flift The average net returnbird was 1258 In the ten flocks hav ing the highest production, the actual feed cost was 204 per heo as compared with a cost of 186 in the ten lowest producing flocks Figured in terms of a dozen eggs, the highproducing flocks did the best with feed costs amounting to only 1504 cents per dozen eggs, while It was 26 cents a dozen in the low producing flocks The average was 18 cents a dozen In other words, it costs more to produce more  eggs, but the Increased production brings a greater return Many Lawyers Unfit Because Lacking in Information and

placed him the cabinet of Theodore Roosevelt Another said that Mr Hughes and Mr Baker are now in the cabinet of President Coolidge and that Chief Justice Marshall served as chief justice until he was succeeded by William Howard Taft Many know almost nothing of English or American literature i Slang Enriches Tongue by Its Workableness and Its Vividness By PROF G R POTTER, University of California, Slang is not the sign of a degeneration of the tongue It is a development of expression which enriches rather than cheapens the language Shakespeare used slang words and phrases in his writings, and so did 0 Henry and a number of other writers whose productions are now considered the classics of literature Language must change constantly to express the feelings of the people Many colloquialisms and phrases are more workable and vivid than those grammatically sanctioned Grammar is not scientific and it is natural that it changes according to the times Of course, many of the slang expressions of the day soon die, but the really worth while ones, those which best express a cer tain thoafJit, ve and become incorporated into the language Rooster Needs Special Feeding and Management The rooster should have special feeding and management so as to keep up his vigor, vitality, constitution and activity, tays H A Bitteabender, head of the poultry husbandry department at Iowa State college Care must be tuken In the selection of roosters, but even after the proper males have been put into the flock, it Is entirely possible to ruin the chances of getting a large number of fertile eggs, says Mr Blttenbender First, have the right pro portion of females in the flock Generally we can use the following guide For Mediterranean breeds, in the early part of the season, one male to 14 females, and as the season advances Increase to 25 for American breeds, one male to ten females early In the season and one to 15 later for Asiatic and English breeds, In most cases It has been found best to use a lesser number of females than of the American breeds One good method of managing the rooster is to keep the hens that are not laying In a pen by themselves, and as they corae Into laying, put them into the breeding pens In this way it Is possible to insure a greater percentage of fertility from the one that are laying during the earlier part of the season, It is not necessary to have a trap nest in order to do this Christianity Shown to Be Gaining, Even if Orthodoxy Palpably Lagging Wintering Turkeys Not a Very Difficult Task As soon as the turkeys, which have been fed for Christmas holidays, have been marketed the ration which was used during the fattening period, no doubt consisting largely of corn, may be reduced A breeding flock should be brought through the winter In good flesh and care should be taken not to have excess fat Corn Is a good winter food, but It is not considered best to make more than onethird of ration corn A mixture of corn, wheat and oats in equal parts will serve as the main part of the ration As long as it is possible for the tur keys to range through the woods and over the field one feeding a day Is sufficient When the fields become covered with snow it may be necessary to increase the grain feeding Green food is very essential and can be supplied in the form of carrots, turnips, cab bage, beets, etc Meat scraps, sour milk, fresh ground bone and oyster shell will supply food which is verf essential Take care of the flock this winter, and next year you will be rewarded for your efforts and work By REV CH  E, New York While

after Lincoln died, Thorp, who was the painter of four Presidents, studied the existing pictures of Lincoln, but found none so true to life as his penciled sketch With his vivid memory of the President as he had known him in 1861 he painted the above portrait T By ELMO 8COTT WATSON BRAHAM LINCOLN U undoubtedly the most wrlttenabout American, not even excepting the Immortal George Washington Although more than sixty years have elapsed since he passed from the stage of history, through all these years there has been no letup in the number of books, magazine and newspaper articles and stray bits of Information which have been presented to a public, apparently always eager for more light upon the personality and career of this simple Illinois backwoodsman who rose to a position of world Importance In fact the mass of new information about Lincoln seems to grow Instead of di minish as time passes and, if 1926 is any criterion, the year 192Jfwni see an even greater amount of Lincolnlana added to our national history In the past few years Iconoclasts have been bu9y turning the search light upon the lives of our great with the professed desire to tell tho whole truth about them, Including those  truths which will show that they were much less great than popular opinion has believed them to have been Through all this Idolshattering, the great figure of Lincoln has stoe1 virtually untouched, the statute of hl greatness undiminished Apparently any new truths about him which may be revealed by the historians cannot change In the least, cither, the ver dict of history upon him Least of all can they change the love for him of the common people, whom, as he once said, the Lord must love, because he mnde so many of them, The accessories to the Lincolnlana of 1920 proved again that the amount of new material, In the sense that it Is not widely known, about him is seemingly Inexhaustible Outstanding among them, perhaps, were Car Sand burgs twovolume study of Abraham Lincoln the Prairie Years, and the publication of the further researches of the indefatigable Rev William E Barton, whose twovolume Life of Abraham Lincoln of 1925 was his third important contribution to fresh biographical material Incidentally, it might be added that one bibliography of Lincoln material lists some 2,680 books and pamphlets Sandburgs biography, which Is wholly evoted to showing Lincoln In his times before he went to the White House, is perhaps as understanding aone as has ever been written, because, as another man of their tpe, the late Stuart Sherman, in writing a review of Sandburgs work, pointed out, they are good companions, the two of them, and mutually illuminating III inoisans both, plain people, admirable story tellers, rationalists, Jeffersonlan Democrats both, both nonprofessing Christians  Lincoln perhaps the completest specimen that has appeared In the Western hemlsphere, and bgfh poets withal, made melancholy at times and gentlehearted by asking themselves what folk re member In the dust, in the tombs  But It Is to Rev W E Barton that Americans are most Indebted for clearing up many mysteries about Lincoln Barton is a historian who has sought to tell the truth about Lincoln, but he Is no Iconoclast He has dispelled legends which have grown up in the amazingly short time of half  century, but the Lincoln

affection, and there 1 a certain nobility in this It has been sld if you thiol depicts is none the less admirable nor lovable If anything, he Is more so of both and Bartons Lincoln demon strates all the more clearly that Lincoln needs no myths or legends to enhance his fame Among the many interesting revelations made by this biographer are those about the Ave sons of Mrs Lydia Bixby, who were the inspiration for the famous Blxby Letter which was delivered to the Boston mother on Thanksgiving day, 1864, with a Thanksgiving dinner and a considerable sum of money The inspiration for this letter was a statement from the War department to President Lincoln that Mrs Blxby was the mother of five sons, four of whom were killed In battle and the fifth died of wounds The facts which Barton has brought to light are these Two sons, Charles N Blxby and Oliver C Blxby, were killed In battle, the former at Fredericksburg and the latter In the Crater fight before Petersburg Bat they were the only Blxby sons who were killed in action Another son, Henry C Bixby, was cap tured at the battle of Gettysburg but was paroled In 1864, returned to his home, discharged from rrrvlce and lived until 1871 Edward Blxby, a boy of eighteen, who was supposed to have died of wounds, grew homesick and deserted to the enemy in 1862 After the war he changed his occupation, became a sailor and is known to have been living with his mother in 1871 He died In Chicago in 1900 George Way Blxby, supposed to have been killed ut Petersburg, was captured by the Confederates there and a fellow prisoner who returned to Boston reported that he had deserted to the enemy, but later records state that he died in prison Although he is known to have been living as late as March, 1865, his final fate It unknown So of the five son3 who died gloriously in fie field of battle, as Lincoln wrote to their mother, only two actually did die thus, one was a known deserter and another may have been But for all that Lincolns letter was written under a misapprehension and for all that the Blxby sons may not have been deserving of all the honor it gave them, the fact remains that this letter still stands as a classic of English prose and, as Barton has said, the facts in the case can detract nothing from the noble and sympathetic spirit of Abraham Lincoln The latest Lincoln legend that Mr Barton has dispelled is in regard to the sleeping sentinel, sentenced to be shot, whom Lincoln Is said to have pardoned The story book version of the affair has Lincoln riding out at dawn to stop the execution, sitting down In a tent with the boy, looking at the photograph of the young sol diers widowed mother and hearing the boys grateful offer to mortgage the old farm and repay the President for saving his life Then it has the boy, mortaly wounded In battle later, delivering a long oration to his comrades, uttering a prayer for Abraham Lincoln and sending a dying message to the President The only thing the matter with the story, aayfi Barton, is that it is all wrong William Scott of Company K of the Third Vermont, who had been detailed as one of three soldiers guard Ing the chain bridge over the Poto mac, was found sleeping on his post on the night of August 30, 1861 He was courtmartialed and sentenced hi be shot Monday morning Septe 9 The sentence, however, was a fcl and intended by Brig Gen Smith,

tests recently completed by the United States Department of Agriculture steers which made only slight gains in weight during the win ter put on greater gains on pasture the following summer than those which made larger winter gains It was demonstrated that differences In gains by steers during the winter due to rations fed are gradually minimised throughout the period of summer fattening on sraas Consequently it is Important that cattle to be marketed early from pasture should gain considerably more weight during the winter than If they are to be sold late The experiments were begun with 90 good to choice Hereford steer calves of weaning age and continued until the animals were marketed as threeyearold steers The calves were divided into three lots of 30 each, each lot as nearly uniform as possible In quality, size and condition The three lots were each given the same amount of space In an open barn and kept under cove all winter The steers were fet twice a day, and the feed, ooth concentrates and roughage, was carefully weighed at each feeding Water and salt were avullable in the barn at all times During the period of the experiments changes were made in the grouping of the calves, and several different rations were fed Department Bulletin 1431D Effect of Winter Rations on Gains of Calves Marketed as ThreeYearOld 3teers, contains a detailed account of the experiments

D C Castrate Young Pigs a Month Before Weaned It is common practice among many farmers to castrate pigs after weaning, and in some cases the operation Is deferred altogether too long The older the pigs the more they suffer from the operation and the greater Is the danger of loss For a number ot years several experiment stations have castrated pigs within 24 hours after birth aud with very satisfactory results, The Ohio ani Wisconsin experiment stations have done considerable work ulong that line and the former has come to the conclusion that the sooner a pig is castrated after it Is two or three days old the better Only a very small opening need be made at that time, and If the operation is performed under sanitary conditions the wounds heal very quickly and the pigs seem to suffer no setback whatsoever Pigs should never be vaccinated until the wounds from castration have fully and completely healed This Is one reason why they Should be operated on while small an at least a month before they are to be weaned Sheep Must Shear Good Fleece to Bring Profit To be profitable, a sheep must shear a good fleece of wool And here breed characteristics may be taken Into con sideration If not pure bred, a flock usually carries predominating blood of some breed and wool characteristics of that breed should be kept In mind In all cases, however, the fiber should be of good length so as to grade in the combing classes, dense, and have plenty of yolk or oil Dry wool or wool without yolk Is light and brittle There should be a good covering on the belly, and In some breeds well down on the legs Uniformity In length of the fiber as well as uniform fineness of fiber Is essential Sometimes there Is a tendency toward kemps or hairy fibers among the wool These are undesirable Balanced Ration Proven to Be Most Economical A good many farmers are saying that they are not going to feed con centrales this year because they have so much corn It will be a wastefut mistake to try and feed all com without supplementing It with protein con centrates The balanced ration has proved Itself the most economical Corn alone will not give good results with cows, with steers, with hogs, or with chickens It will, In fact, be likely to Injure them Just as It used to before balanced rations wre understood If you have a lot of corn, bet ter sell part of It and buy concentrates It will be better economy Lice and Ticks in Winter When lice and ticks annoy sheep In winter dipping cannot safely be done, but an application of a mixture of equal quartltiw of flowers

timnle and reUgiom lot of folk hare slumped in their religious statu SHghtyeight per cent of the members of the Episcopal church are in the urban group of the American population, while only 17 per cent are found in the country o rural group Out of more than 56,000,000 persons living in rural America, leaf than 9,000,000 axe memhera of any religious body The oldfashioned idea that the country folk are simple and religious people, and that they more than make up for the lack of religion in the Godless cities has held sway for many years We hare not realised how rural life today has changed Improved roads, advanced methods of farming, automobiles and more recently the radio have forced such institutions as the rural school to change to meet these conditions while the rural church stiH tries to function along the old lines and follow ancientand outofdate methods, Still we wonder why we have failed to reach the country people The difficulty has been that we have not known the facts We have not known that the country people of America constitute one of the great neglected missionary opportunities before us, where more than 4,000,000 children are growing up without religious training where the efforts of religious bodies in many localities are often dissipated in useless competition while whole areas in other sections go without even the opportunity for Christian services By ELMO SCOTT WATSON HAT will the flnul verdict of history on loorge Washington be Man or Superman If we lire to believe the early day hjonru pliers of the Father of His lountry it will he Superman, a paragon of all the virtues, who WHS not only first in war, first In peace and first in the hearts of his coun trymen hut first in faultless living Such Is the model which Parson Weeins, who Invented the cherry tree story, established, find It has been industriously copied by many later biog raphers, especially those who write our school histories If we are to believe a later generation of historians, it will be Man, a man of his times with the habits of a man of his times, Including its faults as well as its virtuesin short, George Washington, the human being For more than a century George Washington hns bnffled the historians In their effort to present the real Washington Forty years ago one of thtm, Prof John Bach McMaster, pointed out the difficulties which confront the biographer of Washington when he said General Washington Is known to ua, and President Washington But George Washington Is an unknown man When at last he is set before as as he lived we shall read less of the cherry tree and more of the man Naught surely that Is heroic will be omitted, but side by side with what Is heolc will appear much that Is commonplace We shall behold the great commander repairing defeat with marvelous celerity, healing the dissensions of his officers and calming the passions of his mutinous troops But we shall also hear his oaths and see him in the terrible outbursts of passion to which Mr Jeffer son has alluded and one of which Mr Lear has described We shall see him refusing to be paid for his services by congress, yet expecting from the family of the poor mason the shilling that was due We shall know of him JS rhe coW and forbidding character with whom no fellowman ever ventured to live on close and familiar terms We shall respect and honor him for being not the greatest of generals, not the most Miintiy of his race, but a man with many human frailties and much common sense, who rose In the fullness of time to be the political deliverer of our country Those words, written nearly half a century ago, Ions before any effort had been made to dispel the myttu which had grown up around Washington, are straigely prophetic of the events of the past year which have brought up again the question of the real Washington and focused public attention upon it more sharply than It has ever been focused before Outstanding among those events was the criticism which met the attempt by one of Americas bestknown novel ists to write the sort of Washington biography of which McMaster speuks The novelist was Rupert Hughes and ills biography was George Washing ton, the Human Being and the Hero, published by William Morrow  Company nf New York In fact, looking back upon the year Just past It is curious to note how many times the two names Rupert Hughes and George Washington have appeared in the news dispatches together It began in January when Hughes made a speech at a banquet of the Sons of the American Revolution In Washington, D C In which he was described as having pictured Washington as a profane, Irreligious and pleasureloving man Although It was afterword learned that he had been misquoted, the mischief was done as soon as the story went out Immediately he was attacked and defended all over th world Sermons were delivered on his speech, his name was heard In congress nnd put In the Congressional Record, senators denounced him and he received clippings of newspaper comment on his speech In almost every language French German, Dutch, Spanish and Italian Interest In the controversy was revived In September when the Hughes book appeared Even though It did not arouse such a storm as did his speech, It, too, was met with divided opinion, both censure and praise Reviewersfor the most part historians themselveswere far from unanimous in their wrdlcta Where one praised the biographer for his painstaking care In minute documenting of his statement and refraining from mak Special Offer to Victims of Indigestion Prnggsrt

up with authority, another criticized him for fatal llloglc and false romance of the movies A Harvard professor, Albert Bushnell Hart, announced that he had found 297 errors of fact In the hook Anottier reviewer declared , that Mr Hughes walks on all the eggs without breaking a single one, Even the most rabid biographical fun damentalist will find little to com plain about In this book So there you are The case of Rupert Hughes, the biographer, Is proof anew of the statement made by on writer that George Washington Is an elusive person, for although for forty years, from early manhood until the time of his death, he was Increasingly In the public eye, the real man, high on his pedestal of official and personal reserve, has been hard lo come at A part of this Is no doubt due to the early biographers, such as Parson Weems, who began building up the myths about him, and the In creasing years only served to give them an increasing firmness of fixity in the popular mind Hughes has well expressed It when he wrote, No other man In history has suffered so much from malfeasance in office by historians, Nearly all of Washingtons biographers have felt It their duty not only to correct his writings, but to bluepencil, prettify and falsify his character In theifrantic zeal for denaturing this big, blundering, bewildered giant they have done a further Injustice to all his contemporaries, of whom they have made either dwarfs or acolytes, and of his sincere adversaries demons of malice and envy It is poor patriotism, ridiculous Idolatry and rank dishonesty to rob the host of other strugglers for liberty and progres of their just deserts and to perpetuate old slanders against his enemies at home nnd abroad In order to turn Washington Into a god As a god Washington was a woeful figure as a man he was tremendous No wonder then that the real Washington is yet to be delineated One type of mind would make him a Superman another H Man But the final verdict of history probably will decide that he was a bit of both an4 the picture which It will draw of hlra will be somewhere In between the two extremes Labors great progress during the laat year foretells the gains to be made in 1927 Wages were increased, the fiveday week was established in many occupations, collective bargaining became recognized by thousands who had previously opposed that meritorious principle, recognition of the rights of labor resulted in increased efficiency and low wages were admitted to be an evil and not a benefit to our country Furthermore, the spirit of organization grew enormously in strength and promises great returns for 1927 Most wonderful strides were made in bringing about harmonious relations between management and organized employees in many industries, out of which came improvements in manufacturing processes and in conditions of employment Adequate wages increased the consuming power of the great mass of wageearners and this brought most substantial returns to the business world The amazing sums spent during the Christmas holidays were the result of the wages enjoyed by the workers From one end of the country to the other the sentiment is eipressed that the successful efforts of the American labor movement for higher economic standards has had tremendous influence on the bringing about of the prosperity enjoyed in 1926 SNT NEGD

Cruelty and Excess By G A STUDDERT KENNEDY, King Georges Chaplain The urge behind the vulgar ostentation and insensate luxury that marks our age and that marks American life is the desire to show off It is a causeless craving It begins when we are little children and does not end even with our death, because it comes out in our funerals Mans passion to show has been a merciless, insatiable urge, driving him to cruelty and excess Always it has driveii some men to live in palaces and keep their brothers in pig sties, som4 women to dress, or halfdress trieroaelves in fabulously costly clothes

Country By WILFORD I KING, National Economie Research Bureau Whether wealth is widely distributed or instead concentrated in the hands of the few is a matter of great significance from a political stand point These who possess the wealth of a nation are, oftentimes its real rulers The fact is generally recognized that the country in which most of the wealth ie in the hands of the few, while the great majority of the people are propertyless, is one in which it is easy to incite the inhabitants to revolution, for under such circumstances ths masses feel that they have little to lose through any political upheaval that may occur On the otkr hand, in the nation in which the greatest majority of the inhabitants are property owners, governments tend to be unusually stable BOSCHEES SYRUP 30c

the diving champions are not known to the athletic world In the harbor of Brldgeton, Barbados, are some of the most expert divers to be found anywhere On a recent visit of  the Canadian Pacific steamship Montroyal to that port some of the native boys dived from the top of the ship, 75 feet above the water, down tto the bottom, got a handful of mud, swam under the ship, about thirtyfive feet

Viennese Alpinists must be deported from Lungau Despite rain and chill darkness, the bobbedhaired women were routed out of the inn at night and forced to leave the precincts by a crow4d of indignant

year was again the big idea in pork production on Illinois furuis and as was the case in 101i5 It paid out well to the ad vantage of furmers who practiced it It Is reported by Pruf E T Robbing, live stock extension specialist of the  college of agriculture, University of Illinois He hud charge of the demonstrations which 1,213 farmers in 75 counties of the state conducted In cooperation with the college and their county farm advisers to show their neighbors the benefits of the sanitation system which the college advocates Written reports from 160 of these farmerdemonstrators have been filed with Professor Robbins These reports cover 38 different counties of the state They confirm the fine show ing made a year ago by the simple sanitation system In practical farm practice More pigs raised by each sow, fewer runts, cheaper gains and quicker market weights are some of  the main benefits which the farmers who used the system obtained again this year The reports show that some of the men skipped one or two of the four factors of cleanliness which constitute the system, but altogether their work was 86 per cent complete in these details The average time required for one man to clean and scrub the farrowing quarters for one sow was 45 minutes The average time to wash a sow was  20 minutes On 56 per cent of the farms the clean pasture had not been used for hogs within the last two years The average area of pas ture allowed for one sow and her litter was ninetenths of an acre On 18 per cent of the farms the pigs drank running water from a creek, ditch, or tile ontiet These farmers got the best results They had only 1 runt pig among each 111 pigs raised Where pigs drank from troughs there were twice as many runts On all the 160 farms the average was one runt among each 71 sanitation pigs The men raised 04 per cent of the pigs saved at birth The lit ters raised averaged 15 pigs more than when pigs were raised the old style wormy way, they averaged 24 pounds heavier at four months old and were ready for marked when six weeks younger than usual Altogether 00 per cent of those who reported said that the sanitation system is more profitable than the old way and that they will continue to  use it  The system calls for clean sows at farrowing time, clean farrowing pens, and clean pastures to which the sows and pigs should be hauled, not driven, and the pigs kept there until they are at least four months old Mature Sows Superior to  Gilts for Raising Pigs With approximate information that the hog cycle revolves in from thirty to thirtysix months, many fanners have concluded that It is more profitable to raise one litter of pigs from  gilts, then fatten the sows These young sows generally classify as light packers and bring from two  to three cents more per pound than the heavier pucker sown Will the gilts raise as many pigs as the sows Careful experiments at Purdue university show that twoyearold sows raise more pigs than gilts The experimenters also found that If the sows are kept too lung, their productivity rapidly diminishes, Most farmers who keep aged sows keep them a year too long, said C M Ves tal, commenting on the fact that the sows are sold a year too late rather than at the proper time Doris Duke left photographed here with her mother, Mrs James B Duke of New York, is only fifteen years old and is heir to the fortune of the tobacco

Their Shaven Faces, PhiladelphiaThe centuriesold legend about the Arnasons, a nation of  female warriors who carried fire and word to ancient Greece, Asia Minor, Arabia, Syria and Egypt was declared a myth by Dr J L Myres, secretary of the British Association for the Ad vancement of Science, at the meetings of the American association The masons, according to Doctor lines were not women at all but

Doctor Myres, have found representations of beardless men In the Hittite monuments on s plateau near the headwaters of the  Sagarins river, the modern Sakarfa, In Asia Minor By deciphering the Hittite language it has been learned that these men actually participated In the wars against the Greeks when the  Amazon legend originated At about 1250 B C the fashion for beardless men among the Hittltes

Grain to Larnbs to Prevent Any Setback Grain should he kept before lambs, and while the quantity of grain may j  be relatively small, It serves a much  needed place in balancing the ration I and preventing a setback In the j growth of the lamb The man who j has a small Mock of muttonbred sheep Should have his wether lambs large enough and In condition to go to market during the summer months when comparatively few lambs are coming and the high price Is generally to be  bed These lambs should weigh around 70 to 80 pounds and can be made to reach that weight at three or four months without undue forcing Kine wool lambs will probably reach a weight of 50 to 55 pounds at that time If well grown and are ideal to go Into the feed lots for winter feeding Feeding Young Stock Young stock cannot make normal growth during the winter season on corn stalks, silage, prairie hay and the like Such feeds furnish enough heat to maintain the body temperature, but do not provide the nutrients

grain to young stock dufsaf Ike winter Poultry sufftr from colds and associated troubles In winter just as do human beings, but a little care and doctoring will help to ktvp down the heavy annual toll that these diseases exact from poultrymen According to  Dr B F Kaupp, head of the poultry department at the North Carolina State college, the birds suffer most from diseases of the respiratory tract In cold weather Common colds result from the birds becoming wet or chilled because of poor housing, quick changes in weather or cracks in the house permitting a draft to blow on the birds One of  the signs of this disease is a discharge from the nose Any bird so affected should be immediately removed from the flock, states Doctor Kaupp, because the discharge will contaminate the drinking water and give the disease to the other birds In the case of colds, the nose should be cleared out by syringing with a 10 per cent solution of argyrol or a purple solu tion of permanganate of potash In the case of roup where there is a stinking discharge, pure iodine should be used In the syringe and the bird treated morning and night until cured Weak pullets come from crowding In the summer and they must have proper feed and care in the laying pens Most of them will develop sore head even in a new house These pimp leg should be greased with carbolised grease Sore eyes is another familiar wintertime trouble The eyes need to be  swabbed out, states Doctor Kaupp, and a drop of a 10 per cent solution of argyrol or a 1 per cent solution of sulphate of zinc placed in the eye twice each day Canker or diphtherltis is a winter disease which attacks the mouth It forms a spot where the sore is cov ered with a cheesy material Scrape this off, states Doctor Kaupp, and use on It a canker pencil, pure iodine or  powdered chlirate of potash Repeat once each day until the sOre has been cured  Kff G006BS OfiT OF DANCER ZONP Coughing irritates your throat makes you cough more The x  you cough the

earlyhatched chicks of  the heavier breeds make the best winter layers Khode Island Red pullets which were hatched In March gave a white egg production of 4iI,6V eggs Aprilhatched pullets gave a winter production of 3540 eggs and May pullets gave a production of 22,50 eggs Tiie profit In producing eggs comes largely from producing them ut a season of the year when they are highest In price This means that we must plan to produce eggs during the winter months The Massachusetts experiment shows that, with the generalpurpose breeds, the earlyhatched chicks are the ones which mature in  time to start laying In the latter part of October and continue throughout the winter Poultry Hints m i    n  m   ii n i I I i i i i i i  Cull out the hen that Is persistently broody,    Isnt It funny

the ground In the sunlight as soon as possible, or for a short while each day     It will soon be the season for gape worms, and all yards not sown to green feed should be spaded or plowed  up If the worms are thick, scatter lime about the yard before plowing    Brood coops for the crop of growing young fowls need strong wooden floors and the openings in front should be closed tight each night to keep down the losses from rats and weasels     When the eggs begin to hatch, the hen should be confined and not disturbed until the hatching is complete    Hens in the breeding flock should be allowed out of doors in direct sun light during the winter and encouraged to take plenty of exercise    The little chicks are not one bit better off where you insist on feeding them before they are 48 hours

rather than on applied In tense ornamentation, thereby achieving an effect of unsophisticated youthfulness for which the extremely elaborate gown strive ID vain Worth compromises in one Instance with this new order to the extent of confining the bead embroidery on the gown to a single panel down the back Otherwise the frock Is simplicity itself,  made In black of a soft crepe satin, with the front

back and its panel hung with row after row of black head fringe The gown bears Ita own permanent shoulder decoration In the form of embroidered flowers done in paillettes in various tones of peacock blue Simplicity composed of rnnny Intricacies is the boasted forte of Vlonnet and one sees in her collection many charming examples of the complicatedly simple evening gown A favorite type is made of

persuaded her parents, who were rich, to give her a year in New York Ostensibly she was study ing tit an art school but If you had questioned her and she had been honest, fche would have told you that she was studying life A young man, dressed In the extremity of fashion, who had been executing a dance with a slim blonde, came up and sat down at the table Im thirsty, he remarked, addressing all the party, though his eyes rested on Dorothy Whatll you have asked Sanford, smiling Absinthe, answered the young man Hello Excuse me a moment While he was gone to speak to his late partner, Sanford turned to Dorothy Its the way in Bohemia, he said Introductions arent considered necessary You dont mind Oh, I think its delightfully unconventional, the girl answered When the young man came back he drifted Into an earnest conversation with Dorothy, after drinking the strange, greenishwhite liquid which was supplied him He asked her to dance The girl, In exhilaration, seemed to float over the boards And when the dance was over the young man and she sat down in a corner behind a screen, under a palm He was the son of an English nobleman, he told her But for family reasons the marriage had to be kept quiet He had borne the undeserved stigma upon his birth at his dead mothers plea His father had refused to acknowledge him He did not like life In the cabaret But he had ts, live Dorothy listened In a

the Cabaret Richelieu at her request to see something of the shady side of life He thought the inexperienced plri more worldly than she was Had he understood nothing would have induced him to take her with the party of friends, to such a place The young mans soulful blue eyes seemed unutterably sad May I hope to meet you again he asked Perhaps, breathed Dorothy When Tomorrow night It was settled, and the girls heart beat fast as he led her back to the table, where Sanford gave her a kindly scolding for sitting out with the man He did not know the secret of his birth, and Dorothy felt honored In keeping it to herself Sanford took her home, laughed at her enthusiasm, and said goodby He never dreamed what plan was In Dorothys head On the next night Dorothy, innocent, went to the cabaret atone Timidly she sat at a table She did not know what to order Before she had answered the waiter, a young man came up to her and invited her to dance The leer on his face struck Dorothy cold with terror Suddenly, with a hound, her friend of the nisht before was at her side, Jet out of here  he stormed at the other, who withdrew grudgingly A moment later Dorothy saw him laughing with the slim blonde woman It might have seemed curious, but all her attention was concentrated on the young man at her side She told him her own story, of the penMn life In the country home, her rich old father, absorbed In money making, her loneliness In New York But you need an escort, said the young man May I be privileged to cail myself your friend I can show you lifethe real life    On the next evening he called for her In a taxicab and took her to haif a dozen cabarets Dorothy had an Impression of a whirl of music, dancing, and laughter The young man had no change and Dorothy paid the taxicab

THE TOAD FAMILY l  F I conld writ ft book, said Ted 1 dy Toad to Taddy Toad, would not go around lecturing, for It would take the time away from my writing Those who talk too much dont gev any chance to write and think Theyre too anxlooa to hear themselves speak and that doesnt help them much But I couldnt writ a book and so I ahall talk I shall talk and It wont matter if what I say doesnt amount to much, for talk doeant go between the hard coven of books It does very often, said Teddy, no Td speak wisely if I were you   WelL said Teddy, I shall be one wbe doesnt speak wisely I, shall be I Am Going to Give a Course of Lec tures, Said Teddy one who talks and lectures and whose talk Is quoted but whose talk Is silly If you say that beforehand, said Taddy, no one will want to come and  hear you talkOh, I dont know, said Teddy They will be sure beforehand that they will not be disappointed and that will be a great thing They may say to themselves  Now, today there is to be a party given by the Tadpoles, but It may be a very dull affair Tadpole parties are  apt to be  Of course it may be nice, but the chances arent so goo1 Theres Teddy Toads lecture and he saya that that isnt going to amount to much So well be sure not to tx disappointed If  we go to that They may make speeches like that They may, said Taddy, and again they may not  I am taking it for granted that they may, said Teddy What are you going to lecture about asked Taddy Ah, said Teddy, that U the question Havent yon decided r asked Taddy I am going to give a course of leeturea, said Teddy And what U the course to be about V asked Taddy Ah, said Teddy, that makes more than one question That makes several Do tell me about the subjects, though, said Taddy Well, said Teddy, I thought my first lecture would be about a toads experience as a toad You couldnt give a toads experiences as anything else but a toad very well, could you asked Taddy with a little toad laugh Not very welL said Teddy, but then I might be able to do It after a  fashion However, I would rather not do it after a fashion and so I do what I can do well I can relate a toads experiences as a toad And then what will your next lecture be about asked Taddy I thought I would also give another lecture and call It The World In Which Wfe Live  Well, said Taddy, that would be an easy subject You could say any thing at that lecture and what you didnt remember you could forget Just as I thought, said Teddy The title sounds so fine It is a beau tiful lecturing subject and as you say I wouldnt have to remember anything I could Jusf say what came into my toad head And then I thought I wuld have as another lecture The Garden In  Which We Live Maybe in that Id have to think a little more, but not much more No, I  wouldnt have to think mnch more Then I thought Id recite a little poetry and this would be one of my recitations  When your walking down a road And you come across a dear little, toad, Remember nee the gardeners friend, And has been for summers without end  Hes a dear, hes a dear, he la a toad, too, Oh, what In the world without toads would we do I shall raise my voice beautifully for the last line to make It sound very fine And I would say 1 hat those were the lines of one of our greatest toad poets and Id leave It to my audlenoe to And out that of course the lines were my own, Yes, Im full of plans for my lecture course

account called Reserve The money invested In this account Is held for purposes of emergency It Is an amount set aside out of the yearly earnings to weather any financial storm that might come With a sufficiently large reserve account a bank protects its depositors and is able to avail itself of a much larger credit than it could possibly command without that security A reserve Is Indispensable to the financial success of any business enterprise The absence of this reserve has  caused many a financial wreck and business failure In the world of moral values a reserve is as Indispensable a factor as it is in the business world It Is a balance of reserve power on the right side of the moral ledger that enables one to overcome many a difficulty and successfully encounter many moral struggles When the opportunity pre sents Itself for one to violate a code of business ethics and the path of least resistance seems very easy, the Issue Is determined wholly upon the power one possesses to say no Should the power of resistance be at a low ebb the moral code Is violated If on the other hand a sufficient amount of strength can be summoned to meet the  attack, the answer, nine cases out of ten, will be a refusal to yield This factor which determines ones decision in the realm of moral values Is not Instantaneously created It Is an asset in ones moral world which has been enlarging as the months and years furnished opportunities for storing away moral reserve strength The  larger the reserve the more successfully and easily are the moral depressions met and mastered A bank accumulates its reserve account gradually It is created out of earnings A moral reserve may be the growth of years Out of ones dally experience is built up the moral reserve account In the trial

heredity will always have to make al towance for the environment in which the contribution of heredity Is to live and develop Environment assists In correcting many of the errors which heredity passes on and overcomes many of Its yell tendencies, Environment may not create the conditions under which n parson begins life but it has much to do with the Influence under which that life is to be developed Heredity excuses no one from the obligation he owes family, friends and the community In which he lives Tf a farm er plants potatoes In rich soil ami then does not save the big ones for seed, but continue to plant all the offspring, will the rich soil Improve the stock inquires Mr Wlggam CertalnTy not But If the offspring happens to he all the farmer has to plant the manner In which the soli is cared for will have an important effect upon the result of the potato crop The conscientious discharge of moral obligation bears a vital relntlnn In deter mining environment to which

Thence there was open territory by sea or land to French or English ports as I chose I knew that Vice Admiral Burtelle was In the vicinity of Alle, a town Just beyond the Holland frontier His present

trained in readiness  for n try at her Just then there was a new commotion Out from a cliffguarded Inlet there set out one of the largest men of war I had ever seen Her bulk was fairly enormous She steamed along slowly, clumsily The officers of the Polaric were manifestly troubled Then T overheard one of them cry out  I see the guine  What is It sharply challenged his companion officer We have

of 1927 was found by an amateur as tronomer in South Africa on the eve of the first anniversary of his discovery of the second comet of 1926 According to advices reaching Dr Har tow Shapley, director of the Harvard college observatory here, from the International Bureau of Astronomical Telegrams of Copenhagen, Denmark, the amateur, Blathwayt by name, picked up a ninth magnitude comet on  Thursday, January 13 It was on January 10, 1926, that he discovered the first comet, which was named after him When he located the new visitor early on the morning of January 13, it  was In the constellation of Scorpio, which can be seen low in the south eastern sky just before sunrise at this time of year Astronomically its position at the time of discovery is expressed as 15 hours 44 minutes right ascension, and 20 degrees 46 minutes south declination It was moving to  the southeast, which makes it still lower in the sky for American observers, so probably no observers in northern countries will be able to see it at all At Braamfontein, near Johannes burg, where the discoverer is located, however, it is now almost directlyoverhead at sunrise, and though it is  too faint to be been except with a telescope, it will probably be observed by other observatories in the southern hemisphere It tserwttt th lrrSUtioa  CM MITCHELL BYS SMXVS, s tlmslt, d vendible, tit rwatr M at 11 drugfltu

was a member of this colony Sister Ellen Koss, once a leader in the colony, l living with relatives in Indiana Arrival of First Shaker The first Shaker settlement was founded near here In 1805 when in  March of that year three men wearing broad brimmed hats and dressed in the fashion of the early Quakers appeared at Turtle Creek, four miles west of Lebanon They had left New Leb anon, N Y the last day of January and had made the 1,000 mile Journey on foot, stopping for a short time In  Kentucky The Sunday after John Meacham, Benjamin Young, and Issacher Bates arrived they obtained permission of the pastor of Turtle Creek church to occupy his pulpit There followed a  revival and the pastor and several members of his congregation were con verted to the United Society of Believers, as the Shakers called themselves The popularity of the new sect spread rapidly Within a month a dozen families had embraced Shaker Ism and had given their property to the church Many who became members owned large tracts of land which they all consecrated to the use of the church In May, 1905, the sgciety was dulyorganized at Union Village As the  years sped by the community pros pered and gradually acquired more than 4,000 acres of some of the most valu ble land in Warren county The  village extended about a mile along one street The houses and shops were large, many of them of brick and all

or lace, except two pieces of white tape for  tying under the chin Beads, necklaces or ornaments of any kind were banned, Their long skirts were full and plain and gathered in at the waist They wore straw bonnets, made in the  village, called Shaker bonnets to this day The people of this quaint village walked to church In single file, the  men going In one door and the women In another Before dancing, which was part of their worship, the men removed their coats In 1829 Union Village reached Its zenith in population with 500 members Kvery home was plain and painted brown  the walls white

CURRENT EVENTS President Asks Powers to Agree on Further Cut in Naval Armament By EDWARD W PICKARD O N INSTRUCTION from President Coolldge the American ambassadors at London, Paris, Home and Tokyo presented last Thursday to the governments of Great Britain, Franco, Italy and Japan a memorandum suggesting that they empower their delefates at the forthcoming meeting of the preparatory commission for the disarmament conference at Geneva to negotiate and conclude at an early date an agreement furtJier limiting naval armament, supplementing the Washington treaty on that subject, ind covering the classes of vessels not covered by that treaty The President In a special message to congress explained the considerations that moved him to take this ac tion, and Included the text of the note to the powers In this he said the American delegates at Geneva would have full powers to negotiate definitely regarding measures for further naval limitation, Rnd If they are ble lo reach an agreement with the representatives of the other signatories of the Washington treaty, to conclude a convention embodying such agreement, In tentative or final form AS may he found practicable The American government and people, the President said, are convinced that competitive armament constitutes one of the most dangerous contributing causes of International suspicion and discord, and Is calculated eventually to lend to war Despite the hope of the United States to complete the work of the Washington treaty and extend limiting treaties to cover cruisers, destroyers and submarines, the message continued, farreaching building programs have been laid down by certain powers, and there has appeared In our own country, as well as abroad, a sentiment urging naval construction on the ground that such construction is taking place elsewhere P RESIDENTIAL campaign politics and the third term problem came out Into the open last week, and prob ably will stay there for some time to come Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, a wet Republican and for long a potential candidate, started things with an ad dress In New York in the course of which he asserted that In his Judg ment Calvin Coolldge would refrain from Injecting the third term Issue Into the campaign of 1928 and would not be a candidate to succeed himself He declared that other Republican leaders throughout the country felt as he did and that Mr Coolidges common sense would keep him from seek ing a renominatlon Doctor Butlers gpeech dealt with issues he believes will have to be met in 1928 and told the Republicans that the party would face the fight of its life and that victory would go to that party which stood squarely on three Issuesprohibition, farm relief and foreign policy The lid thus being taken off Reck of Wisconsin, Insurgent Republican, Introduced a resolution In the house, declaring It to he the sense of that body that congress is opposed to a third presidential term Speaker Nicholas Longworth, who Is supposed to have presidential ambitions, In an address before the womens patriotic conference on national defense in Washington, caustically criticized the administrations economy program, especially as It affected the navy The leading argument of those In the bouse who opposed any appropri ation for the cruisers was that another limitation of armament conference might be held In the comparatively near future, and that, under the cir cumstance, we should proceed with no new actual building program, said Mr Longworth To my mind, that argument refutes Itself I have not the slightest doubt that It WHS our commanding strength and generous willingness to make great sacrifices that brought about the successful results of the Washington conference Today we are In no such position of superiority but rather in a position of Inferiority We must then take up the question of a new conference on the limitation of armament, not as a nation willing to make great sacrifices iri the cause of peace, but as a nation begging others to make sacrifices themselves Senator Rorah responded to Doctor Butlers challenge concerning prohibi tion by admitting that was a proper issue in the coming campaign and as serting that the Republican party declare Itself unmistakably on that question He said this would be done by the voters themselves and therefore the Issue should be presented in the states and districts prior to the election of delegates so that the dele gates might be chosen in accordance with the popular view This proposal seat shivers down the spines of many Republican leaders Henry Kord contributed his bit by visiting the White House and then Informing the correspondents that he had told the President that the country generally Is solid as a rock and that existing prosperity will not only continue but Increase He added that he considered the President more popular with the people of the United States than ever before, but be refused to discuss the Presidents chances for renominatlon A T THIS writing It appears likely that the McNaryHaugen farm relief measure will be passed by congress and that It will be vetoed by President Coolidge because he still considers it a pricefixing measure and therefore economically unsound The President was said to favor rather the CurtisCrisp bill, which contains no equalization fee provision and which Frank O Lowden condemns for that reason as wholly missing the point of legislation which we have been advocating Farm bloc leaders In Washington said If Mr Coolldge vetoed the MtNaryHaugen bill, the corn belt would rally to Lowden for the Presidential nomination One emergency agricultural relief bill was passed by congress and signed by the President It appropriates 10,000,XO to be expended In coopera tion with the states In the eradication of the corn borer I V ALL likelihood the world court has ceased to be a political Issue and the Inited States Is definitely out of that tribunal Last week the State department received from Creat Rritain and two other major powers, not named, notification that they were not prepared to accept the American res ervations unconditionally President Coolldge announced In his Kansas City speech that unless all the nations adhering to the court protocol accepted the American reservations without change he would not again submit the matter to the senate and the United States would remain outside the court It was stated at the White House last week that Mr Coolldge had not changed his mind In regard to this M EMBERS of the senate committee on privileges and elections again failed to agree on a report In the case of Frank L Smith, senatordesignate from Illinois A majority of the committee seemed to be In fa vor of recommending the sentinc of Smith, but several Including the Democrats, thought that evidence as to the facts in the case should he presented before a report was made to the senate One may repeat the prodiction, made several weeks ago, that the matter will not be settled before the present congress comes to an end on March 4 HV Hi the second time President Cool idge withdrew the nomination of William J Tllson of Atlanta to be federal judge for the middle district of Oioorgia The senate was about to vote on the nomination and rejection was certain Senator Harris of jeorgla led the opposition, saying thit Tllson was personally obnoxious to him The Judiciary committee hnd twice reported adversely on the nomination  PORTUCAL enjoyed one of its pe nodic revolutionary movements last week The revolt started with tin

the International concession at Shanghai, and the Gloucestershire and Lurham regiments, having reaaed Hongkong, proceeded to Shanghai as did a number of British warshipsJ Dispatches from Hankow, headquar ters of the Cantonese, said Eugene Chen, nationalist foreign minister, had resumed conversations with Owen OMalley, the British charge daffaires, and that an amicable agreement might result One reasou for this may have been the reported reverses suffered by the Cantonese troops In Cheklang province, which halted their progress toward Shanghai Marshal Sun Chuanfang, allied with the northerners, was said to have captured Chuchow Much of the speech from the throne at the reopening of the British parlia ment was devoted to the Chinese tangle, and while both Mhe king and Prime Minister Baldwin gave assurance that Great Britain desired a peaceful settlement by negotiation, the latter made It plain the government was determined to protect Its nationals in China and would land troops at Shanghai If this was made advisable by local conditions, regard less of any protests Secretary of State Kellogg made an effort to solve the problem of Shanghai ry proposing that that city be ex cluded from the zone of warfare be tween the Chinese factions, but this was not considered favorably by either the nationalists or the northern ers, and of foreign nations only Japan gave It approval Premier Mussolini announced that Italy would support Great Britains program and sent a warship and marines to the scene of action The transport Chaumont, car rying 1,200 American marines from

and the Near Eaat, hangs like a sinister atorm cloud over the Mediterranean The most casual observation makes it apparent to th traveler that many things are wrong Italj is fiercely bitter over Yugo filarial refusal to use the port of Fiume The YugoSLrrs will not use th harbor because they want to develop their own ports along the Adriatic Then, Salonika, the finest harbor on the Mediterranean, is guardec Jealously by the Greeks YugoSlavia and Bulgaria, adjoining on thk north, are looking with longing eyes at Salonika If they should unite they would have a combined population o 17,000,000, twice that of Greece and about equal to that of Rumania, stil further to the north On the other hand, Rumania, under Premier Averescu, is not onl envious of obtaining YugoSlavia but has been holding hands with Italy Furthermore, the Greeks resent the Italian occupation of Rhodes and are dissatisfied with their relatively unimportant possessions in th Cyclades islands to the west Also, Mussolini has not been building naval bases for sport Thus should Italy make a suggestive gesture, or should Rumanis play politics too openly with Russia or Bulgaria, or should YugoSlavii and Bulgaria enter a compact or should Turkey threaten Cyprus, i cataclysm could readily result Of course nothing may happenbut thi pressure there is terrific  POULTRY WATCH DETAILS TO OBTAIN EGGS Larger and Wider Distribution of Wealth Solution of Economic Problem By CHAUNCEY M DEPEW, Veteran Financier We are the eitremely practical people in the world and judge everything by result When I was a boy everybody on Thanksgiving day or 8unday went to church and the churches were full But they were nol really temperate, for everybody ate too much at the Thanksgiving noon day meal Stomachaches became popular because they were evidence you had enjoyed Thanksgiving I reckon we shall have the glutton with us for many year, but as a nation we are getting a finer standard of selfcontrol Danger of excess riches does not exist in this country We never can get too rich We must seek a larger and wider distribution of wealth We are getting that in a way through high wages, but more rapidly through liberalization of great industries Workers as shareholders is one of th best solutions of the problem The Biblical picture of a rich man getting into heaven with the utmost difficulty no doubt was true when the

brooder stoves are In readiness for the coming hatching season Now is the time to inspect thla equipment carefully and order any accessary parts that will Increase the possibilities of a tUccessful

Sanctity of Home By VERY REV F S M BENNETT, Dean of Chester, England American mothers should band in a mothers union to preserve the sanctity of marriage, the preciousness of the home and the

in peace and amity, even as the cathedrals of the Fourteenth century in England marked the welding together of the NormanSaxon races in that country Washington cathedral, I believe, will be a means of splendid education in beauty for the people and a witness in the capital of your nation of the spiritual side of your race The builders of Washington cathedral have a largeness of vision and a

hens the sort of feed and care that will prolong tbj laying period Nature has been preparing the hen for laying in the spring, and her body has a store of proteinthe scarcest eggmaking element But a hen that lays five egga a week will lay eggs in two months to equal onehalf her own weight, and unless her feed has replaced this pro tein, she will lay little after May 15 or June 1 To avoid the

Santa Claus, and Too Little Jesus, in Christmas Spirit Today By DR NATHANIEL SCHMIDT, Cornell University, As a celebration of the birth of Jesus, Christmas seems to be gradually disappearing The name is indeed more popular than ever, but the hero whose advent is celebrated is no longer the Jewish prophet It is Santa Claus Whatever the evidence regarding the existence of Jesus there can be no question as to the tremendous challenge the spirit associated with His name presents to the order that prevails in the world tod a v Tn view of the devastating wars between nations and sinister preparations for still more terrible wars, a social system that allows multitudes of men to perish in misery arid starvation while enormous wealth is concentrated in private hands, and a deadening formalism and sectarian n in religion, there is need of a prophetic voice that humanity will recognize as coming from its inmost self  Mothers for Guinea Chicks Ordinary hens make the best mothers for guinea chicks Given warm, dry weather, and plenty of range, tur key and guinea hens can be used successfully, but should a rain or heavy dew occur the mother turkey or guinea hen Is apt to drag the

the colleges of today they would have remained submissive subjects to the king of England instead of becoming freemen This dodging of the liberalizing cultural subjects, this pursuit of the socalled practical studies by the majority of students, is taking all the spunk out of the younger generation Our forefathers were able to fight for ideals of liberty in the Revolution only because the colleges of the day were liberal enough to foster such ideals In the colleges of today the students are taught to be submissive slaves to those who tyrannize over our personal freedom When the young people study only practical subject they forget that there are standards of personal liberty that must be maintained I Potatoes for Ducks I Roiled potatoes are good food for ducks and should be mashed tad mixed In the damp mash to make d oMt J per cent of the total TJba rest of the mash should remain the same as if the potatoes were not j used It is best to put the roofing m  the outside of the building, both on I the sides and roof, because it then j keeps the moisture out On a single wall house we would put two or three thicknesses of tar paper between the boards and the roofing Reduce Winter Mortality One of the bent ways to reduce the per cent of mortality in a poultry j flock is to cull out all undersized latej hatched pullets They are the type of i birds most subject to colds and roup, j and will seldom lay many eggs until i the late winter production begins to  reduce the prices The remedy is to buy enough chicks, or hatch enough  at home, so the pullet flock can be thoroughly culled, and yet leave  enongh to fill the capacity of the plantTHE PINCKNEY DISPATCH FARA4 SXOCK   m   HORSE RAISING RETURNS PROFIT Prospect tor profitable horse are better now than ever, deciant Wayne Dlnsmore, secretary  tto Bone Association of America  ACOSSSWmB to Mm, th census of horses and states on farms J an nary 1, 1925, compared to similar figures on Janu ary I, 1920, shows that horses have been reduced from 19,767,161 to 16,635,759, a decrease of 163 per cent, while mules show an Increase of 5S per cent however, mules under two years gt ape, show a decrease of 440 per cemt This Is clear evidence of a great BmWttSgm of young animals At the pnBat rate of production, U would tut over 27 years to produce the 22,386,867 head of horses and mules we have on our farms at the present time, Dinamore says And according to him, production must be almost doubled to take care of our future needs Farmers with the kind of mares whose profeeny sell at good prices have been increasing production In the last two years, while those who have been keeping inferior mares, or are not naturally good horsemen, have been receiving such low prices as to discourage them from raising a poor type of horse Such a state of affairs will encourage the production of good horses and discourage the production of in ferior ones, which is precisely what we need, says Dinsmore Compe tition with mechanical power requires the production of better horses and mules, capable of doing more work in a given time, he maintains Brims Pronounced on Spring Straw New Models Cling to High Crown, but Hard Linea Are Eliminated The spring straw bats readied London before the winter snows The new model straws maintain tie vogue of ih high crown, but hard lines are rlliulnaied by the clever use of fancy effects in straws and the addition of taffeta and ribbon Brims are more pronounced whether they droop prettily over the face or turn up turban fashion A novelty In straws is the beehive shape with black Satin ribs The milliners In popularizing straws are also introducing more colors Some are in rose pink, swathed In taffeta, others In orangecolored straw and Interwoven colors A black milan hat achieves a smart effect In the combination of an unusually high crown and the narrow drooping brim Ostrich wisps continue the line of the applied section of the crown of a satin shape, softening the severity of the simple model Shaped pieces of straw are fitted over the crown of a pasteltoned straw hat, which aiso testifies to the vogue of the high crown and brim A black felt turban

Trouble Many sheep growers experience considerable trouble and loss of sheep during winter and spring on account of what is known as Grub in the Head , This trouble is caused by the sheep bot fly, which looks something like an overgrown house fly, depositing a tiny grub, on the edge of the sheeps nostril some time during the summer These tiny grubs make their way up the sheeps nostrils to the communicating cavities of the head, where they feed and grow until ready to leave the sheep Sheep affected with grubs sneeze frequently and have difficulty in breathing Usually, either from loss of appetite or pain, the sheep eat less and become thin In flesh In sewre cases the animals may have convulsions and finally die The trou ble may be prevented by keeping pine tar spread on sheeps nostrils during fly season Cattle Are Classified by Consumer When Marketed The consumer really determines tbe j grades and classes into which the cattle on a thousand hills are to be separated when they reach the market, says the tnited States Department of Agriculture When the house wife selects certain grades of meat such as cholre, medium, or common, this demand Is reflected to the wholesale buyer who supplies her butcher His demands In turn are reflected to the buyer of live cuttle In the yards, who must supply the choice, medium, or common grades called for, and who pays for them according to grade and class Thus the marketing, classification, and grading of the great train loads of cattle that arrive at the stockyards Is really done according to consumer demand Culling Ewe Flock Many sheep breeders plan to do the culling of their ewe flocks In the fall of the year about breeding time This Is perhaps the best time of year to weed them out and put them In with the market sheep, but It is a wise plan to keep the culling idea well in mind throughout the year for undoubtedly the final culling will be more satisfarfbry if the defects which tend to make a ewe no longer

Thrilling results which have ben brought to light 1B the derlpherlix of ancient manuscripts In the varioii libraries of Eu rope, Ureal Krilalu, and Ireland are those which contain romantic ttiorles which Indicate a foreshadowing of discoveries which we look upon as altogether the result of material development pertaining to the present era Bay a writer in the Christian Selene Monitor One of the most curious of these Is the tale of the appearance of an airplane, tbe account of which waa written between the years 94 and 9f6 A D, in the relu of an Irish king named Congulach The authenticity of the date of the manuscript Is beyond question, and th description Is as follows  Cougalach reigned in Meath, and was evidently given to farming pursuits, for the story goes on to tell of his one day attending a fair at a place now railed Telltown, on the Meath blackwater, midway between the towns of Navan and Kells While he was inspecting horses, for which that county Is famous, a sound In the sky caused him, and all the people, to look up, and they beheld a large ship floating far above them It appeared to be fully equipped with a numerous, and evidently Intelligent crew After a time, In which the people In the fair gazed in silent wonder at the phenomenon, the hnge vessel gradually floated toward some clouds into which It entered, and the awestruck crowds saw it no more This same story is told with slight variations by the Norse documents, named Kongs Skugglo Yet another tale Is told In one of these Irish legends, in which the writer prophesies that a time would come when carriages without horses would run through the streets of Jerusalem These stories are, of course, mere legends of imagination hut It Is Interesting to find them noted In documents of undoubted antiquity, and In local as well as In ancient runes and agos also that such shadows of the actualities of the Twentieth century should have emanated from the thoughts of people In the Tenth It would
