Throughout the nation, various organizations did a splended job of spreading Christmas cheer. It was the aim of these groups each work ing individually in their own com munities, to see that no child and uo family be without a Santa Claus on Christmas morning. It was a noble work. It was well done. Yet as the Yuletide season passes, the conclusion is forced upon us that the need for relief is not over, that there remains much work with some organization in each locality must do. One thing is certain if the rug ged individualism that has charac terized America is to- continue to be a characteristic of our people: There must be a little outright giv ing as possible. By that we mean that must be almost nothing do nated to individuals. If we are to save our people from the parasities which follow the dole system we must begin ahd begin now to de mand something in return for the assistance we give. Let us make our position dear. No ablebodied man should expect charity if it is within our power to give him something better, some thing which will enable him to re tain his self-respect and the man lier qualities. That something, which we should give him, if pos. sible, is worked at which he caD earn food and clothes for his fami ly. , ■/.; Let us give our most serious thought to the; task ahead. Let us: Which Is Nonsense. ' Bill has been introduced in the leg islature to convert hitch-hikers into misdemeanants. Signaling a passing motorist for a ride would be made ,9 misdemeanor and the person giving the sign would be subject to pains and penalties if anybody took the oains to prosecute, which would be ione in a few cases. Some States have this law but it is impressible to', see the necessity for it. That it is proposed is other and further evid- dence of the disposition to cumber the statute books with laws that are inifferently enforced because their enforcement is not supported by oublic sentiment. AU of which oper- ites to the lack of respect for laws that are based on sound public polic and should be respected and enforced We have small respect for the numeous people who try to get a- bout the country by beating their way. But so long as the hitch-hiker is content to make his request solely by signs, where’s the harm? The motorist can ignore him and that’s the end of it. If the hitch-hiker loose a verl al rssault or resorts to force and arms to compel compliance with his request, existing statutes are sufficient to take care of that. The mere presence-of groups on street corners and along highways begging for rides may give the mo torist disgust,jbut so long as requests are confined to a bumb show it is im possible to see that the annoyance is sufficient to call for legal recogni-j tion. Few motorists would 'take the pains to prosebute. Only qcqasiprigjj- Iy-would, a thumber who performld in sight 'of a police officer be broughti to judgement.

C —Greece lias made a 3 0 per cent payment on her lefaulded installment, secretary oi he Treasury Mills announced to lay. AU previous reports relative to ■-he attitude of Greece in regard to the payments of the war debts were aot of any purpose to defraud or to refuse payments, but merely an ex planation to tbe effect that Greece •vill pay when she can. That is what any houest government cau express and what any honest gov rnment can evpect, particularly under present conditions. The loans made to Greece were war loans at the suggestion of tbe allies. In order that Greece might live up to the expectations of the nations that were fighting against militarism and autocracy Greece vvas the only corintry which had a revolution to enter the war so the principles of democracy might pre vail. Greece went through fire and bloodshed time and again, but out of the ruins of the Acropolis Greece •has risen again as victorious and honest as she was during tbe [flourishing period of Pericles.

That is the most desirable solu tion of the problem with which we are faced. Regardless of what methods we use, however, we must not forget to care for those iu need during the months just ahead— E x .______________ Franklin’s Greatness. Benjamin Franklin was too long regarded as one of the lesser lights of the American Revolution. In truth, he outshone any of his con temporaries, not excepting Washing ton. in general all-round ability and intellect. His autobiography should be on the bookshelf, not of every librarv. but of every home. As an example of courage, modesty thrift it i3 unparalled. Sentimentistnrning toward put ting Franklin on the pedestal where properly he belongs. The bankers have seized upon his birthday, Jan uary 17, as an opportunity for an an nual thrift propaganda. And a good thing, too. Thrift is the one thing Americans have to learn if they hope to keep up the high standard of living. “A penny saved is a penny saved is a penny saved is a- penny earned” was a saying of Franklin’s that has become a classic, and never was a truer one. One should not overlook, however, the more inspiring things about this printer’s apprentice who became great. He walked with kings and talked with nobles, and they did him honor. He brought to America res pect in Europe at a time when a more volatile ambassador to France might have worked serious injury to the cause of the Revolution. L etusby all means honor Franklin., But more than that let us not forget Franklin the g r e a t .__________ Durham re ‘‘Beware. . Don’t trade with the door-to-door peddler.” That is the heading o.ver a page advertisement in an exchange, signed by the mer chants of the city. It points out that the rule of “caveat emptor” pre vails when one purchases from the unknown agent “Let the buyer be ware,” for there are no come-backs. Tne continued success of the merch ant, however, depends upon his local patronage, and therefore his reputa tion for fair dealing. He can be reached, endeavors to provide service and correct mistakes. With the ped dler he is here today and gone to morrow. The advertisement asks: 'Do you want to deal with an assortment of ‘ fly-by-night” traders? Or do you want to deal with your steadfast, reliable, home-town merchants—the men who make up the list of your best citizens, largest taxpayers, pub lic benefactors and community build ers?” The irresponsible agent appears at the door. He or she shows you samples of goods. You are prevail ed upon to buy for it appears to be a bargain. But you find out differ ently when the article arrives. It is not in accordance with the sample or representations. It is cheap stuff, may not fit, and is entirely unsatis factory. Ic is returned with request for corection or return of money. You receive neither. There is no redress. Your investment is lost. Many have undergone such exper iences, and have profited thereby at a cost. So from the selfish and safe standpoints alone, it pays to patro nize the home merchant in prefer ence to the.unknown afar off. police or the machinery of the law can adequately handle, also the dif ficulty in taking care of prisoners when all places of detention are crowded, the proposed law is foolish' ness. There has been on the statute books for more than 30 years a law making it a misdemeanor for one to steal rides on trains. There is good ground for that. Hitch-hikers who trains force themselves on the train without the knowledge or consent of the trainmen. If they did that on motor cars there would be real cause to call for a law. Also stealing rides on trains is dangerous to the hobo, Many are killed and injured that way! In which event the railroad company may be compelled to pay damages or costs. But with all that the enforcement of the law against stealing train rides has been practi cally abondoned because of tbe cost to local government in taking care of prisoners at a time like this. Which is further evidence of the ab surdity of converting the hitch-hik ers who simply make a motion into a group of law-breakers when there is no real offending—Statesville Daily. and Tobacco growers in County will use the research suits at tbe Tobacco Barncb Station near Oxford in handltng their crop U. S. For 2nd Time Without A Living Ex* President. Historians are reminding us that the first time since the end of George Washington’s second term, the United States today is without a living ex-president; also that we have no “elder statesman” todav,” And all of this comes as a great er surprise because of the fact that Mr. Coolidge was by no means an elderly man. Indeed, he seemed so much iu the prime of life that peo ple had already begun to talk oi him as a candidate for the presid ency in 1 9 3 6. Hadthismoveproven abortive, it at least seemed certain that he wouid live to witness the administrations of several succes sors in the office he once held. Apparently there is a great deal of truth in the current theory that the presidency is a great strain on a man’s physical powers. Our ex Presidents do not. as a rule, live to a great age —Ex.

In the meantime gripped under the farmer’s arm while he talked about his financial misery, were two shiny new auto-license plates, that cost about thirty bucks. —Statesville Record. Tribute To President Hoover. From Charity And Children. Although the Presidents term of office does not expire until March 4 he is busy as a bee winding up the important duties from now until that date. Mr. Hoover has general ly-been a very busy man He has at tended closely to his duties as Presi dent and wastes no time in foolish ness. He has for the most part re mained in Washington and kept his eve on the matters that constantly engaged his attention. He has been shamefully critized of course and at one time impeachment proceedings were instituted against him, but only eight votes were recorded in favcr of these outrageous proceedigs which were introduced by a blasher skite from Pennsylvania, a Republican who was never liked by his party nor anybody else. The Republicans were solidly against the movement and the Democrats who favored it were men who were never reliable and who could not be counted on in any matter of movement to the party or the country. Mr; Hoover made us a good President and whether he was wise or otherwise did the best he could for the good of the oountry as a whole. He was patriotic and able and loved and served his coun try to the best of hi3 ability. Nineteen Edgecombe County to- j bacco gfowers will conduct field de- j monstrations.with E Y.

The following beautiful message was broadcast by Will Rogers, the c iwboy comedian the day following the death of the late President Coo lidge and is every word true. Per haps there is no woman in America more beloved than Grace Goodhue Goolidge, wife of the late President. Here is the Rogers message: Mrs. Coolidge, your husband’s head rests todav. not alone on his Vermont soil, but pillowed on the sincere tributes of .the millions he had served. Every writer has written of the amazing hold he had on his countrymen, and they attributed it to various causes. “Now that he is beyond the re ceipt of more honor, what about tbe 'amasing hold’ you have on our peo ple. Naturally,-you add your hus band’s career — all wives do that. But what made you so beloved by the people? Overnight you were swept into the highest position that can be held by an American woman. Other ‘First Ladys’ had had perhaps greater advantages, training, back ground and social distinction. But you showed that which teachers, travel and social associations can’t compete with—something that was born in you, a native dignity, a sir. certy, a modest graciousness that en dears yuu to all. "Calvin’Coolidge left a great les son to our government in ‘common sense’ Yours is just a3 great lesson to your sex, in a homely loveliness; •and above all, a consideration for the feelings of others, which constitutes a ‘real’ lady, be she pauper or queen. Yours. Will.” A Son s Letter To His Dead Father. Dear Dad:— I am writing this to you though you have been dead thirty years I feel I must say something to you; things I didn’t know when I was a bov, and things I was too stupid to say. It is now only, after passing through the long, hard school of vears; only now when my own hair is grey, that I understand how sou felt. I must have been a bitter trial to you. I believed my own petty wid- som and I know bow ridiculous it was, compared to than calm, ripe, wholesome wisdom of yours. Most of all, I want to confess my worst sin against you. It was the feeling I had that you did not under, stand. When I look back over it now, I know that you did understand. (You uhderstnod me better than I did my self). Your wisdom flowed around mine like an ocean around an is land. And how patient you were with me! How full of long suffering and kindness! And how pathetic, it now comes home to me, were your efforts to get close to me, to win my'confidence, to be my pal! I wouldn’t let you. I couldn’t. What was it that held me aloof? I didn’t know. But it is trogiB—that wail that arises between a boy and his father, and their frantic attempts to see through it and climb over it. I wish you were here now, across the table from me, just for an hour so that I could tell you how there’s no wall any more; I understand you now; dad. and God, how I love you and wish [I ■could 'go. back and. be your boy again. I know now how I could make you happy every dav. I know how you felt. It took a good many years for this prodigal son—and all sons are in a measure prodigal- -to come to him self. I’ve come; and I see it all now. I know what a rich a priceless thing, and one least understood, is that mighty love and tenderness and craving to help which a father feels toward his boy, for I have a boy of my own. And it is he that makes me want to go back to you, get down on my knees to you and ask you to hear me, dad. and believe. —Author Unknown. Two Aged Joy Riders. Police Judge Marmaduke. of Pue blo.

Unless the present legislature fol lows the advice of the State tax com- missisn and diverts arounn two mil lion dollars from the road fund, meanwhi'e cutting every possible governmental expense, the common herd may as well get ready to shell out, because the farmer and his little brother in town will have to foot the bill. Representatives of the large cor porations, which will benefit most from the removal of the 15-cent pro perty tax, are already in Raleigh to fight any plan that would saddle this “replacement levy” on their busi ness. They do not propose to lose what they will gain througe the re moval of the 15-cent property tax,' by accepting increased franchise, in come and license taxes without going to the mat about it. In the end they will win through organized effort and accumulated wisdom in handling matters of this kind. Governor Ehringhaus took on a load that will be hard to tote- when in his inaugural address he set him self against the imposition of any new taxes or any increases in the present ones. If the legislature keeps its pledge to remove tbe 15-cent pro perty tax, somebody, somewhere will have to put up around $4,000,000 to replace tht former revenue, and like" as not the state will decide to get the money where the money ain’t,— Statesville Record.

Prosperity will not return to this country until the price of the farm ers products are at least double what they are today.___ Now is the time for most all Re publicans who have been holding Federal offices to get busy and get another job—if they can. Tomorrow is groundhog day. We trust that the Sheffield com mittee will get busy and wait on the hog and insist that he be kind to us this year. The warm weather last week played smash with the price of eggs. We don’t know what kind of weather is necessary to raise the price of wheat, corn, cotton and tobacco. The Record has always been op posed to any man or set of men holding office too long. The voters have demonstrated on two occa sions that they believe as we do on this subject. We saw a state highway patrol man in Mocksville a week or two ago. This is the second one that we have seen in Davie since away back last fall. Of course, we don’t need them, so why worry. There will be no more “latne duck” Congress to worry with. In the future the men who are elected to this high office will take their seats two months after being elect ed instead of waiting for moiethan a year. We heard Dr. Poteat. president of Wake Forest, make a fine pro liibitiou speech a few nights ago. We wonder where Dr. Poteat was on Nov. 8 th, and we wonder if he voted for Jake Newell instead of Bob Reynolds. There is always something to worry about. The commissioners are going to have the job of elect ing a new janitor in a few days. The present janitor was only elected for one month and his time will soon be out. It seems that almost every man who leaves this vale of tears and has been a subscriber to this rag of fiee dom, lets his subscription get a long ways behind before leaving. Better pay up what you owe and a year a head to be on the safe side. The members of the North Caro lina legislature are badly divided on a sales tax.

Former Davie Family Saved. A dispatch carried in New Jer sey papers under date of Jan. 2 6 th carried the news of the thrilling res cue of Mr. and Mrs. Dloyd Boger and 3 year-old son, in a storm that tore their houseboat adrift. Tbe boat was rescfted by two local men in a 22 foot rowboat. The Bogers former Davie people, were living in the houseboat, and the gale tore it loose, and in a few minutes the family were 5 0 0 feet from shore in deep water Before the rescue par ty reached the boat it was more than a thousand feet out at sea. In three minutes after the Boger fami Iy had been removed from the boat it was pouuded to pieces and sank. Boger and his family were treated for exhaustion and shock at the home of one of the rescuers. Mr. Boger is a son of Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Boger, _of near Mocksville, and his friends are rejoicing at their res cue. _____________ Awarded Carnegie Medal. A recent decision of the Carnegie Hero Commission in Pittsburg, Penn, in awarding a bronze hero medal to Everett Husten Walker, a 14 year old boy scout for except ional bravery in the saving of Boone Stonestreet, rural mail carrier of Mocksville from drowning on Jnlv 4 th 1931 brings to mind what ob servers here term a still greater deed of heroism performed by this lad. . On *he night of October the 30 1930 the Mocksville Hotel situated in the business district of the vil Iage and operated by Everette’s parents Mr. and Mis. G. O. Walker caught fire and Evetette and a younger brother Wade, were asleep on the top floor. When the lad awoke he discovered a door leading to a small porch on the outside of the building was locked and his only means of escape was down the staircase which by this time was literally a roaring furnace as the flames on the lower floor were al ready filling the stairway opening. Grabbing his younger brother in his arms, Everett dragged and car ried him to the lower floor and crawled with his burden through a room already a mass of flames to the outside and safety. Both Everett and the lad whom he saved by his heroic act were sev erely burned and their lives were despaired of for several days. A long treatment in a Statesville hos pital though saved the boys though they still bear scars of their narrow escape. Some time later Ei erette was awarded a Boy Scout n eial for his brave act aud recommeuded for the Carnegie Hero medal which has just been awarded it has been learn ed here The Walker family are now re siding in Gastonia, moving there very recently from Cherryville where they had lived for some months after leaving Mocksville. Awards Walker Boy Sum of $500. Rev. R. C.

His remarks were applauded by 4 0 0 women at the ProhiDifion Day lnncbeonof the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, iu the Hotel Commodore. Dr. PeaIe said: ” 1 do not like to publicly criti cize a woman, especially the next lady of the land, but in the name of Heaven, how could she stand up and say chat every girl early in life must find out how much rum she can hold?” "Her knowledge of the United States does not go west of the Hud son Riyer, and yet here is this statement by this child of the rich who doesn’t know anything about American life. - ‘‘I can’t say her husband is much better. He went to Pittsburg and said the United States could raise $ 2 0 0 0 0 0 ,0 0 0 or so by taxes on beer. Does he not know that never in the years before prohibition did the United States raise more than $126 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 on beer?” Business Was Booming. “I’ll take it,” said the first cus tomers one day the past week of I.

More Power To The Welfare Department The welfare department of the county and management of the City of Hickory are co-operating to pro. vide work for people who are forced by their circumstances to apply to charity for aid. -Those who are given work by this plan are paid in good, substantial food. This system has been recently adopted to replace the old system of just handing out gifts of food to the needy. The new plan is more satisfactory to most of the applicants because they prefer to work for what they get so that they not classed with beggars and paup ers. Ithelps them to retain their self self respect. There is also another mighty good reason for giving food to these peo ple whose families are actually suf. fering for it. Here it is. This is an actual order given at a grocery store by an indigent family who had been provided with money to buy their own food: 10c—Sugar IOc—Beans 10c—Coffee 10c—Fat Back 15c—C ;ndy loc—Buttle Drinks 50c—Tobacco and Snuff Out of the dollar and twenty cents, thirty cents was spent for substantial food. Ninety cents went for staff that might be classed with luxuries and not essential in the diet of peo ple who are suffering for sustenance. Coffee is included In the list of un- neccessary food. Being incapable of spending money properly when they have it to spend is probably the cause of their desti tute condition —Catawba Review.

In the late spring of th at year Gen. John Burgoyne w ith an arm y of 7,000 B ritish and H essians and a large num ber of C anadian and Indian al lies invaded New York from the north by way of I.al;e C ham plain. He won easy victories at Ticonrteroga, Crown Point and. Fort Edw ard, forcing the m ain Colonial arm y under Gen. Philip Schuyler to retreat southw ard. At Al bany he w as to meet Sir W illiam Howe advancing north by the Hijdson from New York city, thus com pleting a b arrier betw een New England and the rest of the colonies and, in all likelihood, putting an end to the re bellion. N ear Fort Edw ard, Ju the cabin of a Mrs. McNeill, a handsom e girl Of tw en ty-three, whose long dark hair was fam ous throughout the countryside, was dressing herself in wedding finery. She had no suspicion of danger. Mrs. McNeill w as cousin to B rigadier Gen eral F raser of Burgoyne’s arm y, and the lover whom she w as preparing to m arry w as also an officer in the loyal ist troops. But Jan e M cCrea had not counted on the ferocity and law lessness of Bur goyne’s Indian allies. H aving attacked a picket' guard of Americans, killing th eir com m ander and taking one pris oner, they swooped down upon the McNeill cabin and dragged out the tw o women. Jan e they seated on a horse. Mrs. McNeill proved to be too bulky to be thus m anipulated, and they contented them selves w ith striping her to a single garm ent, and thus later handed her over to the astonished brigadier general. Ju st why Jan e McCrea w as killed nobody knows. But is certain that som ew here betw een the cabin and fort she w as shot, scalped, and her body brutally m utilated. The scalp, with th e lovely long dark hair th at w as his pride and joy. later cam e to the hands o f her w aiting lover. And it is also certain th a t this deed, proving to Iuke w arm patriots th at the B ritish com m ander w as either afraid or only halt w illing to restrain the atrocities of bis Indian m ercenaries, roused a storm of feeling " throughout the colonies,- “Retnem ber Jan e McCrea,” became a rallying cry nnder which the m orale of the colonists w as so strengthened as to m ake possible their victories at F o rt Schuyler, Bennington and Sara toga, thus defeating Burgoyne’s well laid plans and turning the tide of the Revolution. • « • S a c a g a w e a IN T H E journal of their fam ous ex pedition across the great N orthw est to the Pacific, Lewis and Clark be tw een them m anage to spell the nam e Sacagaw ea in no less than eight dif ferent ways. But, however they spell It, they use it only to express adm ira- tioD for its ow ner, the Shoshone In dian girl who played so heroic a p art in their "m agnificent adveDfure.” 4 Sacagaw ea, or B ird W oman, w as but sixteen when she becam e a m ember of the Lewis aDd Clark expedition. Five years before, during a B lackfoot raid in M ontana, she bad been captured and carried eastw ard into the Dakotas. H ere she bad been sold to the French- C anadian voyageur T oussaint Cbar- bonneau, who later .made her one of his wives. W hen Lewis and C lark engaged Charbonneau as interpreter, it w as arranged th a t his wife, because of her knowledge of the Shoshone lan guage and country, should accom pany him. The first m ention of Sacagaw ea In th e journal of the expedition records the birth of her son, Baptiste, which took place in February of 1805, under the adm inistration of tw o rings of the rattle of a rattlesnake, “broken into sm all pieces w ith the fingers and add ed to a sm all quantity of w ater!" The Indian m other’s p art in the suc cess of the expedition w as a real one. Cbarbonneau turned out to be a poor sort after all. C aptain Clark notes:, “I checked our interpreter for striking his woman a t their dinner.” Once, w hen several of the party w ere caught in a ravine during a cloudburst and alm ost w ashed aw ay, Charbonneau saved his own skin, leaving the res cue of his w ife' and child to Clark. And again, being the “m ost tim id wa te r m an in the world,” he alm ost cap sized the piroque during a squall, and b ut for his wife, who fished them from the river before carried aw ay, the party’s most valuable records would have been IosL It w as Sacagaw ea who guided the expedition finally to the T hree Forks of the M issouri, the land of her child hood. and turning aside the anim osity o f the Shoshcmi, which m ight have proved fatal to its plans, secured in stead their aid, in crossing the moun tains. On the return trip Sacagaw ea once more turned guide, leading the party through Bozeman pass.

Prepared t>y Ohio State University.WNU Service. To study farm ing by mail, 28,698 persons have enrolled In the cor respondence courses conducted by the college of agriculture since their in ception in 1915, Enrollm ents in the 24 courses offered to residents of state Include business men, farm ers, me chanics, policemen, bankers, inm ates of state penal institutions, teachers, and scores of representatives from other occupations. AU correspondence courses are offered free with the ex ception of the course in poultry farm ing for wliich a fee is charged to cover m ailing and other costs. Tbe m ost popular course is th at on vegetable gardening, next in popu larity is poultry term ing, which is fol lowed by small fruits, and soil fer tility In the total num ber of enroll ments. The courses contain from three to fourteen lessons. Each lesson consists of a num ber of mimeographed sheets, and a set of exam ination questions. T he courses have been prepared and revised by members of the faculty of the college of agriculture. Each course deals w ith one particular sub ject in as brief a m anner as is con sistent with clearness and has, In most cases, a special application to Ohio conditions. Many of the courses are Illustrated. At present, 13 courses are offered by the college. They are In the fol lowing subjects: pork production, bee keeping, corn culture, farm accounts, farm lighting system s, farm w ater sup ply and sanitation, orchard fruits, po tato growing, poultry farm ing, sm all fruits, soil fertility, vegetable garden ing, and w riting for the community neswpaper. Small Streams Furnish Power for Farmers’ Use H arnessing the sm all, stream s on the farm to produce electrical power for the farm is becoming more common In N orth Carolina and furnishes the means of lightening many farm jobs. “The slopes of w estern N orth Caro lina fum iph excellent conditions fpr the establishing of small power plants for home use,” says David S. W eaver, agricultural engineer a t S tate college. “N orth Carolina has a large area w here stream s flow rapidly and where the w ater may be harnessed by w ater wheels. Some farm ers a re using overshot wheels, undershot wheels, turbines and impulse wheels, but for average conditions the overshot wheel is the m ost desirable. In some In stances, the results have been unsatis factory because of variation in the stream flow' and a poor estim ate of obtaining heads.” B efore going to the expense of es tablishing a plant of this kind, Mn. W eaver suggests that the site be stud ied in careful detail and the possible horse power available be estimated. For large installations, an engineer should be secured, but for sm aller stream s, the prelim inary estim ates may be m ade by the landow ner him self. Hog Saved by Treatment A striking illustration of the effec tiveness of vaccination in treating hogs for cholera is reported by L. E. McMillan, Ma'nkato, Blue Earth (M inn.) county agricultural agent. Mr. McMillan w as, called to inspect a herd of sick hogs on the farm of John V ast- row, Vernon C enter township. Ten brood sows th at had been double treat ed for cholera were not affected, but all of the spring pigs were sick. Only one showed any signs of activity. Mr. McMillan had some serum w ith him and suggested giving this one pig a dose to see w hat would happen. The pig’s tem perature w as found to be 106 degrees. Forty cubic centim eters of clear, concentrated serum w ere Inject ed. w ith the result th at this pig has not missed a single feed since and is fine and dandy, w hile all the rest that were not vaccinated- died or had to be. killed. Colorado Farm Youth Active Fifteen thousand, nine hundred twelve Colorado farm boys and girls .and young men and women were trained In agriculture and home eco nomics as members of 4-H clubs dur ing the past tw o years, according to 0. W. Ferguson, state club agent for the Colorado A gricultural college. This is an Increase of 3;276 over the 4-H club membership during 1929 and ig30—an increase of m ore than one- fourth. These young men and women were engaged In growing and feeding live stock, dairy cattle and poultry, the production of field crops, fruits and vegetables and the study of dif ferent phases of foods, nutrition, sew ing, clothing and house furnishing. To Aid Farm' Owners Gov. George W hite of Ohio has ap pointed a Hancock Farm and Home1 Protective committee, the first of a se ries of 88 , ’one for each county in the state. The duties of the committees are- to render assistance to hard- pressed mortgagees, both home owners and farm ers. All who wish may bring before each county com m ittee the de tails of mortgage foreclosure actions or anticipated actions. The committee then will investigate each case and rec ommend a course of procedure. Our Government ~ H ow It Operates By William Bruckart THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 'T 'H E R E is one characteristic of the American people th at constitutes something of a puzzle to me. W hen ever they have dealings with their government that result in disagree ment, they sim ply rebel against a compromise. They w ant to go to ' court and fight i t T hat reference, of course, Is to civil m atters. Criminal charges of which the governm ent necessarily is the prosecutor occupy a different status. In theory, there may be no compromise in this respect. Since the governm ent m ust protect its own rights iis w ell as prosecute in dividuals who violate the rights of others, it is readily seen th at it re quires a great law office to look after the business of the distinguished client, UnCle Sam. He really has an immense am ount of litigation and in view of th a t fact he has his law yers scattered in every im portant city in every state In the Union. They are so distributed as to make them avail able to the greatest num ber of peo ple and thus avoid as much expense to the individuals and to the govern m ent as may be, since it would be im possible to place them in every com munity. The governm ent’s law office, the De partm ent of Justice with a cabinet member, the attorney general of the U nited States, a t its head, naturally has to have its headquarters in Wasli- ington. The attorney general is just like the general attorney for a rail road or a bank or any other organi zation, H e is the legal adviser to the President of the United States, among his other duties, and repre sents the United States in every m at ter In which the United States has an interest. He, or one of his repre sentatives, represents the United States likew ise w hebever penal stat utes are invoked against anyone who transgresses the law of the land. T here is no better way to show the varied interests with which this im mense law office is concerned than to set out its adm inistrative organiza tion for handling the vast am ount of work. .T he attorney general, of course, is the boss. H is right-hand man is the solicitor general of the United States, t who appears in behalf of the attorney general a t all tim es in the Supreme C ourt of the United States. T here is an assistant to the attorney general, an office created especially to deal tJwith one type of prosecution, namely, the anti-trust law violator. Seven assistant attorney generals serve in their respective fields with m ore or less lim ited subjects th at they m ay become specialists in their work. One of them deals exclusive ly w ith questions involving tax laws •and enforcem ent of prohibition; a second devotes his tim e to defending th e governm ent’s interests In the United States court of claims w here Uncle Sam is alw ays a defendant and never a com plainant In suits for m oney; a third has an assignm ent of work in connection with adm iralty litigation and foreign relations as well as much of the financial con troversies in which the governm ent is concerned; a fourth does nothing but consider the governm ent's rights In land m atters, and with the memory of oil scandals still in mind the job em braces great detail; a fifth assist ant attorney general is the official crim inal prosecutor of the great law office; a sixth is a highly trained law yer in m atters of customs, the laying of duties a t the custom s houses, ap praisem ents of m erchandise and such like, and the other official of this class seem s to be the general super intendent, for It is he who watches over the scores of United States at torneys who represent Uncle Sam in their respective jurisdictions through out the country. It m ust be remembered, however, that before the autom obile thief or the bootlegger is convicted, there m ust be evidence to satisfy a court and a jury th at the defendant is guilty.. So this law 'office has a group of highly trained investigators who do nothing but run down crim inals and gather evidence. The D epartm ent of Justice now Has charge of enforcem ent of the prohibi tion laws, too.' B ut the policy of the governm ent is to look after its dtizeDS who have been found guilty of law violation, and the attorney general is charged w ith th a t duty as well. He m an ages, through his subordinates, of course, every penal and correctional Institution operated by the federal ■government, and In connection with them carries out the national policy of trying to m ake better citizens out of violators before' they are released again into society. T here is a parole system and an arrangem ent for par dons, the latter a m atter left to the President, and constant attention is given to m eans of im proving those prisoners who will accept instruction as a m eans of equipping- them to earn a livelihood w ithout resorting to crime..

The public seldom appreciates the doubt the ridicule, the ostracism and the enor mous financial risks which w ere suf fered by the early pioneers in medi cines. M ost package medicines w ere origi nally prescribed by th at beloved in dividual, the memory of whose self- sacrificing life is m ost beautiful— the old fam ily physician. Being pre scriptions of m erit which produced results, they survived. They became much in demand and consequently much prescribed by their originat ors. Perhaps the demand grew so rapidly th at the old doctor found him self unable, with his lim ited equipm ent his modest kit, to fill the need. O ften he, som etim es as sisted by his kinsmen or friends, pre- . pared to m eet the dem and by a quantity production, that the m eri torious prescriptions m ight receive the widespread use which their pop ularity justified. Then cam e years of toil, hardships, risks, struggles; w ith life’s earnings and life’s efforts in vested. Eventually the laboratory and the machine entered the picture. W hether an individual pnckage medicine has been on the m arket for scores of years, or w hether it is the more recent product of medical re search. a large proportion of pack age medicines in g en eral'are based upon solid scientific knowledge, and deserve the confidence of the public.

In due course he arrived in Los Algodones and put up a t the M ansion house. N tither the tow n nor the hotel had changed a particle in the twenty- five years th a t had passed since he had seen it last. Nobody knew him, nor did any of th e faces of the loungers in the chairs tipped back against the front of the hotel aw aken In Crooked Bill the faintest flicker of recognition. At the general store he purchased a pair of overalls, a canvas coat and a gray som brero, which, combined with a soft w hite sh irt and black tie and the boots (a relic of other days) which he habitually wore, m etam orphosed Crooked Bill into a very fair im itation of a Texas citizen of the wide open spaces. Thus garbed he called upon D on Prudencio Alviso. “My nam e’s Blodgett, Mr. Alviso,” he announced, and soothed his con science w ith the thought that it was— his m iddle name. “I understand you’re the attorney for Tom A ntrim ’s estate. I also understand he left quite a sm ear of sheep.” Don Prudencio nodded. “A re they fo r sale?” “A sale m ight be arranged, weeth the consent of the court, Senor Blod gett,” Don Prudencio answ ered guard edly. “Fine,” said Crooked Bill. “I’ll buy them . I’ve a notion I can m ake a tu rn on those sheep. I understand An trim ’s heir lives in New York, so I presum e she’ll be glad to sell and git rid of a nuisance.” D on Prudencio shrugged. “Maybe so.” W ith his eyes he inquired w hat Senor B lodgett’s offer m ight be. H av ing looked up the m arket quotations in an E l Paso paper Crooked Bill prom ptly nam ed a figure one dollar p er head above the highest m arket quotations. Don Prudencio stirred slightly. “I weel sell you those sheeps, subject to the confirm ation by the c o u rt” he purred. “I am the executor for tlie ee-state. Tlie sheep have been count’ recently and I weel guarantee the count. I weel w rite for you an offer for all those sheeps, wlieech you will sign. Then I weel accept, subject to the confirm ation by the court and yon weel pay m e now on account ten thou sand dollars, no? I am queeck trader —like you.” “I’ll have the money w ired to the credit of th e estate in any bank you name. It will be there tomorrow. You’ve sold som ething.” Don Prudencio Alviso m ight have looked sleepy, but behind those slight ly liverish eyes he w as very wide aw ake. W ithin ten m inutes he had W illiam B. Latham sewed up on a contract of purchase arid sale, pro vided th e court approved Don Pruden- cio’s action as executor. W hen Crooked Bill had the contract safely tucked in his pocket he com menced talking w ith Don Prudencio about the deceased Tom Antrim , and learned th a t for a few days following A ntrim ’s death the sheep had re m ained in charge of one Bill Dingle, A ntrim 's forem an. L ater D ingie had been rath er forcibly relieved of his charges by Jaim e H iguenes, of the Rancho Valle Verde. “T hat Dingle m ight be a good expe rienced sheepm an to care for these sheep in case the court approves the sale,” ' Crooked Bill suggested hope fully. “W here m ight one get in touch w ith him?” . D on Prudencio gave him m inute di rections for finding Mr. Dingle, and w ith a heart beating high with hope Crooked Bill took his departure. “Tom orrow I’ll hire a car and driver and hie me out to saw those sheep oft on Bill Dingle,” he decided. “I’ll give th a t grass thief a bargain he just nat urally w on’t have the heart to refuse. T hen I’ll get an airplane to freight me back home in a hurry, because I m ustn’t w aste any tim e w ith th at Hig- -uenes bird alw ays on the job. Once home, I’ll w ire R oberta I’m very Ul and to come home immediately. A fter th at—the Deluge.” C H A P T E R X F or a long tim e after Crooked- Bill had left his office Don Prudencio Al viso sa t In his swivel chair and stared hard a t the opposite wall. H e was thinking equally hard. Presently he took down the telephone and called th e proprietor of tlie M ansion house and w ith him held a conversation In Spanish. Then he hung up and waited. Presently the telephone rang and Don Prudencio answ ered, “G racias.” He hung up and w rote on a scratch pad the initials W. B. L. T hereafter he continued to stare a t the wall for an other hour. T he following night he appeared a t the R ancho V alle Verde. Roberta was dressing for dinner, and Don Jaim e w as lying in ''h is long chair on the gallery, w ith . Ken H obart-beside him. “Hello, Prudy, - w hat brings you out?” Don Jaim e hailed him. “I am mystified,” Don Prudencio re plied, and forthw ith related In meticu lous detail his impending sale of the A ntrim sheep to a fat-headed old gen tlem an fo r a very great deal more than they w ere worth. "H e said his w as B lodgett and signed the contract W illiam L. Blodgett,” , the law yer continued. “H e did not say w here he w as from , but I could see he knew nothing of sheep and w as a city man. H e did not bargain w ith me and be seemed to me to be quite too anxious to buy the sheep. So I telephoned to the M ansion house to inquire if he was stopping there and when I described him they said they had a guest there from New York by th at name, but that his baggage carried the initials W.B. L.” “Hum-m-m!” Don Jaim e grunted and sa t up very stra ig h t “H e isn’t a very good liar, is he? W hat does W. B. L., of New York, w ant of the Antrim sheep, and why should he pay such a high price for them ? This is indeed very m ysterious, Prudy. Did he de posit the ten thousand?” “H e did. It w as telegraphed from New York.” " ' “I w onder w hat the old idiot is go ing to do with those sheep?” “I im agine he’s going to get Bill Din gle to care for them.” “N ot on my range. Prudy, the min ute those sheep pass out of possession of th e estate of Thom as Antrim , de ceased, they’re going to get off the Higuenes range. If they linger there’ll be a fight or a foot race.” “Do you suppose Miss Antrim will agree to sell the sheep, my friend?” Don Prudencio queried. “Sell them ? Of course she’ll sell them . You are her executor and you recommend the sale. I am her friend and business adviser and I certainly "I Gave Dingle and His Men a Pretty Tough Deal.” recommend it, and as the probate judge knows nothing of sheep and will be guided by such experts as you and me in making his decislou, naturally he w ill sign an order of sale. H ave a drink, after that long and interesting re p o rt!” “W eeth de-light,” said Don Pru- denclo. The following m orniug Don Jaim e m otored in to Los AIgodones, and Ro berta accompanied him. As they swung down the main street past the Man sion house, w ith its row of chair-warm- ers on the front porch, R oberta started and laid a half-detaining hand on Don Jaim e’s arm . "Jim m y, look! See that man sitting on the right of the line—the one in the blue overalls and canvas coat?” “Yes.” “H e’s a replica of my Uncle Bill. If he had Uncle Bilt’s clothes on I’d get out and kiss him w ithout question. Good gracious, w hat a m arked resem blance! W hy he and Uncle Bill are as near alike as tw ins.” “So?” m urm ured Don Jaim e and stepped on his foot throttle. “Now th a t’s m ighty interesting.” H e parked in front of the bank, ex cused him self to R oberta, entered and sought the cashier. “Ed,” he said, “yesterday ten thou sand dollars w as w ired here to the credit of the estate o f Thom as Antrim, as a first paym ent on account of the purchase, by one Blodgett, of the An trim sheep.

W hen they were half-way back to Valle Verde he said to her very casually, “Do you know a man in New York by the nam e of Glenn H aekett?” R oberta jerked erect w ith surprise. “Why, yes! H e's one of my dearest friends and my Uncle Bill’s attorney. Do you know Glenn, Jimmy?” "No—and I hope I never do. I dis like him very much. He’s in love w ith you?” “T hat’s none of your business, and besides, if he were, Jimmy, you couldn’t expect me to discuss the subject with you. Who has been telling you about Glenn H aekett?” “The fairies,” Don Jaim e replied enlg- matidally. And though Roberta pressed him to tell her more and em ployed every fem inine wile to break down his resolve not to. he refused. As they alighted at the hacienda the outrageous man still further mystified her by saying: “And I don’t think so much of your old Uncle Bill, either.” This statem ent when there w as not apparently any reason why Uncle Bill should ever be the subject of thought was the, final feather that broke the back of R oberta’s curiosity. “Jimmy,” she pleaded, lSvould you care to save a hum an life?” “Some hum ans. You, for instance.” “Then tell me what, has lowered my innocent Uncle Bill in your estim a tion.” “He’s crooked.” “Oh, Jimmy, he isn’t! H is friends call him Crooked Bill because he’s— well, rath er joyously sly, cunning and prudent. B ut dishonest—never!” “He’s out to boost the stock of this Glenn H aekett person to you and to depress mine.” R oberta sm iled a small and knowing smile but said nothing. ' “No, he doesn’t play fair,” Don Jaim e protested. “H e says one thing and means som ething else, so just for th at I’m going to take your Uncle Bill’s conceit down a couple of notches.” "How do you know he doesn’t play fair?” . H e laid finger on lip. “H ush! It’s a - secret.” “Evidently,” R oberta replied bitter ly, after w aiting about tw enty seconds for him to im part the secret “I think I’ll go back to Los Algo- dones,” he announced suddenly. “There’s som ething about the atm os phere of th at town th at aids my pow ers of divination.” “Am I invited to ride back with you? O r m ust I mope around the house un til you return?” “I think you had better mope. I have need to do some thinking—and you ditch my train of thought” H e looked a t her keenly, earnestly, and w ithout the slightest flicker of love- light in his eyes. “A re you enjoying your visit a t Valle Verde; Bobby?

Roberta stood In the patio entrance and w atched him—saw K en H obart come out of the saddle room, receive his orders and go to his own adobe bungalow for his coat and a couple of carbines and am m unition belts.

I beg pardon for addressing you In th a t tqngue, but ob serving th at you appear to be of this country I supposed you spoke the lan guage of the country.” “Never was much of a hand a t for eign languages,” Crooked Bill replied with the utm ost friendliness.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Congress Votes Independence for the Philippines Over Hoover’s Veto—President Again Calls for Balancing of the National Budget. By EDWARD W. PICKARD h ___ L -Sb*** 4 h i Sen. J. H. Lewis SOMET1M15 between 1943 and 1946 the American flag will be lowered in the Philippine islands and the na tives of the archipelago whom we have fostered and protect ed since 1S9S will be left to their own re sources. The United States senate, follow ing the example of the honse of repre sentatives. overrode President H o o v e r’s veto of the independ ence bill by a vote of V 1, „ Jii' 66 to 2 a The argu m ents against the measure, presented by the Chief Executive and based on the opinions of Secretaries Stinlson, H ur ley, Cbapin and Hyde, were rejected. Therefore the act will go into effect, provided the Philippines legislature accepts it within one year. Dispatches from Manila indicate that il may be accepted, although It is far from be ing wbat the leaders there desired. They assert that In passing it con gress is actuated by selfish motives, and In a way this was borne out by the argument of Senator Janies Ham ilton Lewis of Illinois in his argument in favor of the measure. "The United States occupies the place of danger today," he said. -"It is the m ost-im ieriled of any. nation in the world." He reviewed the grievances held against the United States by Russia, China, and Japan. He predicted that B ritish interests in the Orient and the French possession of Indo-Chinese ter ritory would make them cold to any plea for help should this country be come involved in a trans-l’acific con flict He claimed to see the forma tion of an Asiatic Monroe doctrine. “They will not come to America,” said the Illinois senator. “We did not go to Spain. We seized Cuba and the Philippines and told Spain to come and get them. W hile we hold the Phil ippines, these nations may seize them at any tim e and say to us. 'Come and get them .' “- “I place my defense of this meas ure,” the senator concluded, “square ly upon the defense of America.” Senators Borah and Cutting, who with eighteen other Republicans, -helped the Democrats to override the veto, argued that the United States should redeem its promise of inde pendence for the islands. Privately, some of these Republicans had said they would vote for the m easure be cause a Worsek one might be passed by the next congress—though this seems almost impossible. Only one DemocraL Copeland of New York, vot ed to sustain the veto, holding that congress has no constitutional right to alienate I territory oDce acquired. W HAT the nation thinks of the failure of congress to balance the budget was expressed forcibly though politely by President Hoover in a special message which chided the legislators and urged them to bring about economies in government and to adopt a low general sales tax. He w arned them th at insolvency will fol low if the budget continues indefinitely out of balance, for it is a question how' much longer the banks will or can car ry the government by purchasing its treasury obligations. The President proposed that the sales tax blanket all commodities ex cept food and cheap clothing. Be said there probably would be a deficit between $300,009,000 and $700,000,000 for the next fiscal year, even witb re duced appropriations, unless new rev enues are obtained. Since the. President’s criticisms concerning appropriations were aimed chiefly a t the Democrat-controlled low er house. Chairman Joseph W. Byrns of the appropriations committee felt called upon to reply. "W as there anything more amaz ing,” said Mr. B yrns,.“than that the President, who has been urging econ omies since the Democrats came into control, should complain that maxi mum appropriations and economies have not been adhered to? Do we un derstand th at he is put in the position of saying that congress shonld not attem pt to reduce the estim ates be has sent up. here? T hat is w hat the message m eans; it can’t be construed in any other way. •‘You have been President nearly four years and secretary of commerce years before- tbaL” Mr. Byrns shout ed in an Imaginary address - to the PresidenL !'But for more than three and one-half years you have sat in the W hite House totally oblivious to the necessity of consolidation of govern m ent agencies for the purpose of econ- omy.” Representative M apes of Michigan answ ered th is ' by insisting that, as secretary of commerce and repeated ly is PresidenL Mr. Hoover has urged consolidation of agencies and has sub m itted "a dozen messages” along that line, but has been opposed by leading members of tbe Democratic party. There is no indication that Mr. H oover's message would spur this ses sion to any commendable action. H AVING re-w ritten the Collier beer bill so that it would allow the m anufacture and sale of beer, porter, wine and fruit juices with alcoholic contents of not to exceed 3.05 per cent, the senate judiciary committee delayed action on it for one week. Al though the backers of the senate amended bill expressed confidence it would be reported out in tim e for pas sage at this session, house wets ex pressed apprehension that tbe bottling up of the m easure In the judiciary committee might subject it to a fili buster by the drys. Monday, January 16, was the thir teenth anniversary of national prohi bition, and Senator M orris Sheppard of Texas, author of the Eighteenth amendment, succeeded in breaking through the 'L ong filibuster long enough to, deliver his annual speech on prohibition. PRESIDENT-ELECT ROOSEVELT, having had a long talk with Sec retary of S tate Stimson on interna tional policies, paid another visit to President Hoover Friday at the W hite H ouse and while the subject of dis cussion was not announced In ad vance. it was taken for granted that they would again study the world sit uation and perhaps give special atten tion to the w ar debt problem. Mr. Roosevelt also met the leaders of his party In congress, and then was to proceed to Muscle Shoals witb Sena tors Norrfs. Black and McKeIlar to Inspect that huge projecL ONE Democratic senator at least is thoroughly disgusted with the tactics of some of his colleagues of the sam e party. This is Millard Tyd- ings of M aryland, who declared that if the Huey Long fili buster In the senate were tolerated much longer, and if his res- I olution to cut more than a billion dollars § from the costs of the P government were not I acted on. he would ,re- 1 ,.sign for the rem ain der of the session as Sen. Tydings a ' protest, He would begin his new term on M arch 4, having been re-elected. •I don’t w ant my constituents," he said, “to assum e .that I condone or even passively accept w hat is going on here, that - 1 am indifferent to the crying needs' of this nation. Let some one else from M aryland come here to look on if be w ants to.” The Louisiana “Kingfish” and his radical associates suspended thetr fili buster only long enough for the sen ate to vote on the Philippines bill. Then they resumed their obstructive tactics aimed a t the G lass banking bill. The Democratic leaders, however, took the extrem e step of filing a petition for cloture. It was signed by 22 Dem ocratic senators. They also filed- tbree am endm ents to the rules de signed to prevent a recurrence of the Long perform ance In debate on other measures. SenatorGlass-opened the vials of his sarcasm and told th e “Kingfish’’w hat he thought of him. Taking exception to rem arks by Long im plicating that the Glass m easure had been railroad ed onto the senate, floor, the Virginia senator asserted the implication was “as false as any ever uttered by any human lips.” He followed this with asserting that Long’s attack on the bill was made up of “oratorical fub-\ bish and m isrepresentations.” FOLLOWING his intensive prepar ation for assuming his office, Mr. Roosevelt made the interesting an nouncem ent that be would stand by tbe American policy of the sanctity of International agreem ents. In W ash ington and the other world capitals this was taken as meaning that the United States, under his adm inistra tion. would continue to refuse recog nition of the territorial gains m ade by Japan In aggression against China.' Tokyo w as neither surprised nor agi tated by this declaration of policy. . A foreign office spokesman said: “W e are hopeful, however, that, while the substance of the America1O policy will be unchanged, the m anner of its pres entation will be altered under Mr. Roosevelt and that irritations growing out of W ashington’s ’spur of the mo- ment’ judgm ents will be removed. That will count for a great deal.” Japanese statesm en were hopeful that the M anchurian issue would be amicably settled in Geneva, but nei ther their forces In the field nor the Chinese arm ies were helping toward that end. Japanese military planes bombed a concentration of Chinese sol diers at Kailuhsen, near the northern border of J.ehol province, killing an nnestim ated number and doing heavy dam age to the town. Japanese mili tary headquarters in Mukden claimed that the bombardment was ordered after it had been learned Chinese troops stationed at Kailulisien were planning to attack the town of Tuo- gliao. which is across the border in M anchuria. . M ANY Republican politicians ex pect th at President Hoover will attem pt a comeback and vindication In 1936 and consequently believe that he seeks to retain control of the party. The “old line” elem ent in tbe party intends to stop this if possible, and hence -schemed to prevent a plan to hold a m eeting of the national com m ittee before M arch 4, feeling th at after Mr. Hoover has left office he will not so easily dom inate that body. More than a m ajority of the committee were said to have gone on record against a meeting before the close of the adm inistration. In W ashington it w as said that the na tional and congressional committees would be reorganized and th at prob ably National Chairman "Everett Sanders would be forced out or re sign. . Gen. Hines PENDING congressional action on tbe recommendation that 63 per cent of tb e disability allow ances now received by veterans for nonservice connected injuries be discontinued, adm in istrative steps bar e been taken to carry y out that plan. I Brig. Gen. Frank T I Hines, head of the veterans’ bureau, re cently ordered a com >, plete review of alt disability allowance claims, with tbe state ment that 'it w as a p u re ly “routine” move. The review or der, it was revealed, however, fol lowed the adoption of changes In the disability allowance regulations, under which veterans whose claim s have been allowed heretofore, no longer will be eligible for the federal benefits. Under the old regulations disabil ity allowance has been paid to vet erans who conld prove perm anent dis ability of 23 per cent or more, and they were perm itted to add up their disabilities to m ake tbe minimum. Now they m ust prove a single disabil ity of 20 per cent,' though the mini mum rem ains at 25 per cent. General H ines has recommended th at tbe mini, mum be raised to 50 per cent disabil ity. stating that such a move would elim inate 63 per cent of the veterans now receiving benefits for disability in no way connected with military service, and would save more than $51,000,000 a year.

This holy year, the pope said, is in commemoratiou of the nineteenth centenary of C hrist’s redemption of mankind.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Discipleship and Its Meaning- I. The Divine Servant M inistering by the Sea (w . 7-12). 1. W hy he w ithdrew (v. 6). It w as because of the m urderous plotting of the Pharisees against his life." T heir opposition began when Jesus claim ed to have pow er on earth to. forgive sins (2 :10) ; grew in intensity w hen he mingled with publicans and sinners (2 :16); w as fanned Into a violent flame when he set a t naught th eir false interpretations of the Sabbath law (2:23-28). 2. To whom he m inistered (vv. 7 ,8 ). It w as to a great m ultitude represent ing a wide stretch .o f territory. 3. The results (w . 9-12). a. The disciples prepared a sm all ship (v. 9). So great w as the pres sure of the thronging m ultitudes th at he commanded the disciples to pro vide the ship so th at he m ight be saved from them. b. Unclean spirits fell down before him (w . 11, 12). They not only bowed before him, but confessed him as the very Son of God. This testim ony he refused, doubtless for two reasons: (1) The tim e w as not ripe to pro claim him publicly as the Son of God. (2) They were not the beings to m ake him known. Jesus consistently refused the testim ony of those who w ere not in moral accord w ith him. II. The Divine Servant Calling As sociates (vv. 13-19). In this way he m ade provision for the carrying forw ard of his w ork a fter he w as gone. B efore choosing th e tw elve he spent a whole night in prayer (v. 13), (Cf. Luke 6:12). From am ong his disciples he choose tw elve whom he ordained for a tw ofold purpose: 1. “T hat they m ight be w ith him ” (v. 14), Fellowship w ith the Lord is not only the highest privilege of the disciples, but it is an indispensable qualification for w itnessing. It is need ful to be witb him to catch his sp irit 2. “T hat he m ight send them forth to preach” (v. 14). To proclaim the good news of salvation w as the su prem e mission of the disciples. Con cerning those who w ere to be the m essengers of Jesus C hrist, note: a. Tw elve w ere ordained (v. 14). T his w as the beginning of th e process by which the T riune God w as to m ake m anifest his grace to th e whple world. T he num ber tw elve is the product of the heavenly tbree and the earthly four, thus indicating the purpose of the T riune God to reveal him self unto the four quarters of the earth. b. T heir characteristics (w . 17-19). (1) They w ere from the m iddle ranks of society, the common w alks of life. (2) Men of average ability. C hrist did not go to the schools for his apos tles and yet be chose men of m ental grasp and efficiency. (3) Men of diverse tem peram ental gifts. The grouping of the apostles show s men of impulse and leadership, of the reflective and Inquisitive type, and men of practical business abilities. III.

For Sunday Night Supper, or Lunch Well to- Keep Supply of Canned Delicacies on Shelves. W hether you keep house seriously or "kitchenettily,” a s som e p u t IL you a re alm ost certain to keep a supply o f canned crab m eat, tuna fish, sal mon and lobster m eat on hand. T hey a re called on then for m ain dishes and salad, fo r lunch and fo r Sunday night supper and for canapes and for entrees—if you go in for form al din ners. Of these four foods, lobster per haps has the m ore distinct flavor. A very good brand ’ of canned lobster m ust be selected on this accounL Packs of lobster vary m ore than packs of the other fish unless it is th e crab meaL which is of tw o dis tinctly different kinds. The Japanese crab- m eat comes in larger pieces, keeps Its natural flavor, an d . - is packed in such quantities th a t it is used largely. It is particularly good for salad w henever large pieces are desirable. Personally, a household authority says, I l|ke both lobster and crab left in 'airly large pieces w hen a salad is prepared. A t least a third as m uch celery as fish is used for. these salads, and m ayonnaise is m ixed w ith them . Tiny capers o r m inced green olives im prove these salads. T una m ay be used th e sam e way. W hen salm on is used a s a salad, It Is better left in larger pieces —a s it com es from th e can. Plenty of m ayonnaise should be arranged, w ith bard-cooked eggs—cu t into lengthw ise eighths—around the sal mon. Eggs are, of course, often used to garnish the other fisb salads. Any one of these fish m ay be p u t into an aspic jelly w ith celery and sliced stuffed olives. A ring of salad of this so rt m ay be served w ith cucum bers cut into dices and mixed w itb m ay onnaise or w ith a mixed vegetable salad dressed in the. sam e way. F or canapes, th e fish is usually finely m inced and well seasoned be fore it is spread on rounds of to ast o r fried bread.

The secret was unearthed in 1849 by the great magician, Robert-Houdin.-At that time, ether had just been discovered, and little was known about it. Houdin claimed that he had discovered that this new anesthetic could make people light as air. To prove it, lie caused the subject to rise into the air and float apparently suspended. He passed a hoop around the body to show there were no wires or supports. EXPLANATION: There are many, many explanations for this old trick. Oneis that the girl wears a concealed harness, which ends in a socket between her shoulder blades. This is attached to a piston below the stage. The piston is pushed up from below, causing her to rise in the air. The piston is invisible, because it is covered with mirrors which reflect surrounding draperies, similar to the background. The magi cian can pass the hoop over her body because it is cut in one place. It can be pulled apart for a second when it passes the piston. Source : “Modem Magic" ty Professor Hoffmann.

She Walked up the aisle trying to appear nonchalent. ‘'Imagine my embarrassment.” said .the lady, when the preacher announced the text in a resounding voice. 'Is this the one who is to come, or must we w ait for another?” She says she al m ost fainted. ______ The people holler about their rights, but they whisper about their duties. Old-Fashioned Sermon. Rev. A. W. Pyler, editor of the North CarolinaChristian Advocate, preaching at Race Street Metho dist church Sunday morning, gave his hearers an old-fashioned exhor tation on the evils of strong drink. The sermon was old fashioned in the sense that it was an exact model of the discourses common in the discourses common in the pulpit n preprohibition days, especially in that period when the united forces against the liquor traffic were get ting under way the sentiment which resulted in the enactment of prohi bitory liquor laws. To those who remember that period the sermon subject and the line of talk were very familiar. To the younger generation that type of sermon isn’t familiar because so rarely heard sinee the advent of prohibition. In fact it is so rarely heard that it is the unusual and news. The pros pect of repeal and modification ot the prohibition laws will probably call into service again the evils of strong drink as sermon topics. The familiar solomonic warnings recorded in Proverbs, in which the evils of strong drink are clearly pic tured, furnished the basis for Dr. Plyler’s talk. With that he told from first hand knowledge of the evil results of liquor traffic in States ville and Iredell county, as be ob served them as . a youth, his boy hood home being hard by.the town. That picture was also familiar to those whose memories go back that far.' Dr. Plyler excuses the young-, er generation', those under 4.0 years not sty bad, or at least Po' worse; than these in the matter of liquor evils. But he characterizes in plain language declarations of persons old enough to remember the bar room days who say there is as much liquor drinking now as' at any time. There be those who incline to the belief that'tbe consumption of li quor under prohition laws and the evident weakening of the senti ment supporting prohibition enact ments, may be due in part to the failure to continue the exhortations the warnings, against the use of li quor, such as Dr. Plyler gave the race Race Street congregation Sun day morning. The use of strong drink will continue in some degree while time lasts, human nature be ing what it is. The prevalence of the drinking habit will depend on various things. One of these is the frequent bringing to notice of the evil effects of the habit. The illustrations can be found in daily life. There ts no argument against the evils effects of liquor consump tion. Through the years the ha bit has left such and ruin in its wake that nothing — absolutely nothing—can be said in its favor. Gne error of the prohibition forces, probably, has been in depending too much on the law to do all the work. Discourses about the evil results of liquor consumption, its certain disastrous effects physically, mentally and financially were ap parently passed up after the enact ment of the prohibition statutes so that a sermon like that of Dr. Ply- Ier is the unusual. Preachments like that, however, may be neces sary to revive interest in the sub ject, an interest that will be aroused to the serious possibilities, if the opposition to prohibition is to be ,tayed. It may be more difficult because of the lack of understand ing of the younger generation of what the liquot traffic is They see much violation of the law, the consumption seemingly increasing and becoming more open, and they are disposed. to beleive that it couldn’t have been worse if so bad. Not An Effort.zA biii.it as all'HS Objecting to the anti lobby Senator-Clement denounced “ a direct insult and affront” to legislators. Hardly so bad as tbij| senator. One conscions of his owjfi: integrity doesn’t care to be hedgejl about with restrictions which carter the implication that he isn’t to b£ trusted. But at the same time Eg should realize that restriclioes .ai|| considered necessary because of. ht^ man weakness and that submitted to them isn’t necessarily an affro£(t to one who is walking the straigj^: and narrow and expects to keep; that way Persons of the .highest; integrity, whose word is accounted- their bond, when called to serve iS certain positions are required t& give bond for good conduct. They, make no complaint about that te|. ctuse the bonding is recognized ; as? a highly necessary regulation. It is no more an affront to legielatork to require lobbyists to identify themselves and comply -with Cejfjg tain regulations in the conduct of their business than it is to requite an official to give bond Or to bayg to books of his office audited. j No enactment can make a legist latorsafe from a lobbyist: if tlie. legislator is sinind to do business with the lobbyist. ■ But there is no reansonable objection to the- re,- quiiemeuts of the anti-lobby bifej Common decency,-it seems to' -us| should demand that the lobbyj£{| be kept off the floor of both bousesji; even former members. • They- CaJ ply their- trade outside and wiji But it.iaj^bit^raw^fdriI;o^e^to a&Aa' Iormiir member- and then use that privilege to buttonhole legislators who tiay not feel privileged to order him out because he is a guest so to speak. The registration as identification is also a good thing in that it helps to put the active lobbyist in the spotlight. The lob byist shouldn’t be ashamed of his business or afraid to tell what he is there for. Of course it depends on the man. after all is said and done. But be’ cause of human weakness certain regulations are necessary about the conduct of business — especially public business. Those who can and will take care of themselves have no worry about these regula- U9US. They are not a check on those who are restrained ot them selves. They may be a restraint on those who may be unable to stand alone.—Greensboro News. Husband1S Policy May Halt Pension. Washington, Jan. 2 5.—Mrs. Cal vin Coolidge may be the victim of the economy policy personfied by her late husband. Chairman Robiason of the senate persions committee said in a state ment today the bill to provide the customary $5 ,0 0 0 persion f o r widows of Presidents probably would not be reported this session. ‘‘I favor delaying action for two reasons,!’ the Indiana Republican said. “In the first place I under stand there is no economic compul sion, that Mrs. Coolidge is' well provided for. In the second, I want to see what is going to be done about re ducing the small, inadequate com pensation of veterans who do need the money.” PricesWere Low In 1832 An Ohio editor has, a newspaper printed 100 years, ago containing prices prevailing at that time. Here they are; Eggs, 4 cents a dozen; butter, 8 cents a pound; sugar 10 cents; pepper, 50 cents, coffee 31 cents, tea $1.50, bacon 6 1-4 cents, I “I Told You So.” It is not a pleasant thing when ore has pursued the even tenor of his way, pleaseg with his own strength, and.-stumbling, have some one tit ter about it. There is hardly a more aggravating expression that “I told you so.” For years Virginia remained in the mud and her citizens traveled over roads a little better than our re motest mountain trails. Hording firmlv to the determination that, the State would pay as it went, there was for years little improvement of the public highways in that state. Motor ists coming south or going north simply left their bus in the garage and sought other means of travel. In the meanwhile North Carolina embraced a road-building program that gained for her a national repu tation. and incidentally put her in debt, The boasted county-seat-to- county seat hard-surface road-way was a desirable thing, but it cost a lot of money. Under the road-build ing plan counties issued bonds, many of whice remain unpaid, and now an over-burdened populace seeks to keep a straight face while Virginians mutters that aggravating “I told Viu so.” But for a political fluke Tennessee to the west.of us would be doing the same thing. The State was about to embark on a road-building pro gram similar to ours when a gover nor was elected who blocked the vast anticipated-expenditures and built '^g h ty f ewroadsthatwere not. paid Abolish Bailoi Absentee Sefiator McNeill, of Cumberland county, who is sponsoring a bill to prohibit absentee ballots in primary elections, declares out loud that half the absentee ballots cast in primaries are illegal in his opinion, based on in formation and belief. The Cumber land senator doesn’t stop there. Hea-: ,,It (the absentee ballot) creates more strife and discord within the ■party than anv other section of the election laws. Why, I’ve known supporters of certain candidaters of certain candi dates to go out and buy absentee ballots at so much per head. Then, too, a great many are forged. This is a Democrat talking, mind you, the official representative of h s party. Presumably he is testifying as to what he has seen in his own county. Primarily Senator McNeill is interested in preventing Democra tic divisions impending because the Democrats cheat each other with the absentee ballot. We may also be. Iieve that the Cumberland senator, seeing so much evil in the absentee ballot as used by Democrats against Democrats, would sanction tbeaboli- tion of the measure, root and branch, for any election. If Democrats cheat Democrats that s-way what might not Democrats be expected to do to the common enemy at the- regular elections? If’ this be done in the green tree what may be done in the dry? It will be noticed that the Cumberland senator’s testimony is .in support ofwhat Attorney General Hardened To It. I S litlii--’"‘—-ani-' W viWe are'n5tfsare<that;:NdffftT linians would trade back for the old hog-wallow make-shift roads of other days, even with lowered taxes; we are not so sure that our splendid highways have not paid for them selves in transportation advantages But it gripes us to hear that aggra vating ‘ I told you so.”—Statesvi Ie Record. 'imfcetiffie The Melting Pot. “If you want to know the truth,” said a fellow to us the other day, “these hard times may well be con sidered an asset rather than a hind rance. Take me. now; I’ve got a couple kids, that are not kids any more, but grown up and out in the world, trying to make their own way. “Time was when I spent a lot of hours planning how I was going to make things easier for them than had been my lot. But for various and sun dried reasons those plans didn’t work- out. and so those young sters of mine will have to take-pot- Iuck with their fellows; and make good or fail on their own hook. “But the thing that pleases jne is the fact that they’ve got to face ad versity at a period in life when they can take it on the chin standing up. It is better that they be dumped in the melting pot now and thus estab lish the quality of metal that is in ’em. Prosperity comes and goes in cycles, and if they’ve got the sense I think they have, they’ll remember the hard sledding they’re having now and be prepared for the next slump. If they do they will have more gumption than their daddv. “Hard, honest toil never hurt any body. and there are a lot of pleasures that we can do without and still be better off. We’ve been living at pretty fast clip in recent years, and I don’t mind if the brakes are ap plied to these chaps of mine gradual like, so that when they come to an other curve in life’s road they won’t skid into the ditch.

Uoto this time they have had little fear of prosecution and the result in Surry, if it stands as it is, indicates that for the time prosecutions are improbable, If the use of the absentee ballot is dishos- est and indecent in inter-party con tests common honesty and common decency require absolute prohibition of its use.—Statesville Daily. The young people are urged. Ito keep up with the times, but it;is A Judge Speaks His Mind. Judge John M. Oglesby, one of North Carolina’s ablest jurists, speaks his mind in his charge to the jurv at Charlotte. He makes a ser ious , indictment when he declares that,. “North Carolina has been writ ing a crime record for the past four years sufficient to shock the sensibi lities of a pagan nation.” JudgeOglesby finds manv things to be proud of, but the crime record was not one of these. “We boast, and rightly boast, in North Carolina of our 8 clioois, churches and natural resources, of our institutions and in dustrial empire, but now I call to your attention that the time has come when we must halt and search our souls and eradicate boldly and courageously the lawlessness which has come upon us ” Judge Oglesby pointed to the re port of the attorney general cover- ing two years and showing that 15,- 431 homicide cases, had come before Superior courts of the state with re sulting convictions in 10.998 cases Of defendants, 9,770 were white and 5,940 negroes*and 56 Indians and two corporations. Thejudgealsoquoted estimates that, the economic loss from automobiie accidents in North Carolina is $30,000,000. The jurist goes on to cite evidence of the crime wave. The solution lies in facing the situ ation fearlessly and courageously and in dealing with every criminal act .in a fearless manner.—Wilkes Journal. The paperprofits that were boom ed so much back a few years ago. Those inclined unduly to pity the poor Iowa farmers facing foreclo sure of mortgages have not been through the experiences of Floridi ans for the past three or four years. We are brothers with these distress ed farmers in more ways than one. They brought land under the stimu lus of $2 wheat, with which to grow more $2 wheat, aDd pleadged what they had already acquired to pay for the additional acreage. Floridians had their day of inflation when they bought $20 OOO houses and pledged all they had to pay for them. Now the farmers cannot pay the mortgages with wheat at 50 cents and below, and the mortgagors are asking for their money or the land. Floridians who contracted, to pay $20,000 for a house that today would scarely bring $4,000, must do as the farmers are doing, either throw more money into property than they can ever get. or release the proper ty. In the case of the Iowa farmers, many of them pledged their homes to pay for raw land and now stand to lose both. They are experiencing the keen disappointment which most of us here went through shortly after the boom and have now, ex cept in scattered instances, put be hind us. We have taken our looses and have started anew. The Iowa farmer who bit off more than his 50- cent wheat can chew may find pity in some quarters, but only under standing here. We know what he is going through, but we have become a little hardened to that sort of thing,-4-MiamiHerald. make pefe^t^offahimals—even at-a - higb cost to themselves—was never better illustrated than by an inci dent which occurred not long ago at a camp of unemployed men on the edge of New York city. Some time ago a kind hearted farmer gave the camp two young pigs, with the understanding that the pigs would be fattened on fo9d scraps until they were husky enongh to provide a good supply of fresh meat for the jobless men. Well, tne jonless men raised the pigs, all right; but at the same time they got sentimentally attached to them. The pigs became, not poten tial hams and pork chops, but pets. And now they weigh 200 oounds a- piece. and tbeir owners are too fond of them to butcher them. The pigs are eating them out of house and home, but the men say that even if they kill them they couldn’t bear to eat them.

Greenville, Jan. 25. — Charging that important legislative commit tees of the state legislature are con trolled by representatives of preda tory wealth — big combines and trusts. Judge Henry A. Grady, of Clinton, who is conducting the cri minal term of court here, Monday night, told a joint meeting of the local Kiwanis and Rotary club that he felt like shouldering a gun and going after somebody so that the thousands of hungry, forlorn people cast adrift by the industrial world might be given chance to improve their conditions. The assertions came as a climax to a discussion of general conditions prevailing throughout the state and nation and the lack of representation which the average run of people are receiving in the state and national legislature bodies. Out of sight, out of mind, says the old proverb and it applies to peoole who keep out of sight through failure to advertise. If you can see faults in your home town, you have probably helped cremate them by your owu negli gence. L a n d p o s t e r s f o r s a l e FEBRtJARY 8 .THE DAViE R£C0RD, M6CKSVilLE, N. C.

Well, the agony is over. If was improssible to appoint 14 men to fill one office. The councy commis sioners have had a streruo'js two months since taking over the affairs of Davie county. Our teachers extended a card of thanks to the editor of The Winston Journal. Good. If Brother Mar tin can run our schools eight or ni'ie months in the year without cash, be is due the thanks of the whole family, teachers and all. Just a little less than a month until this country will have a new president. We are hoping for the best. We were promised peace, prosperity, -wine and beer last fall if we would turn Mr. Hoover out and put in Mr. Roosevelt. The people demanded a change and got it. Just how they are going to like the change we can’t say. There is much room for improvement in business and we are all hoping that brighter davs are not far away. Up to this writing the old board of county commissioners haven’t given us any reasons for taking over about $7 0 ,0 0 0 of the town’s school debt and placing it on the shoulders of the new County com niissioners—if they have done this, as it was reported We asked for a statement but haven’t yet re ceived it. The town has a very high tax rate—more than the citi zens are able to pay, but shifting it from the town to the county won’t help us much. The North Carolina legislature has been in session for a month What they have accomplished we haven't been able tofind out. All classes of people, rich and poor, swear thev cannot pay any more taxes. When there is talk of tax ing any enterprise a rush is made to Raleigh with a declaration that an. extra tax will close down every thing from the bottling plants to the big tobacco factories. There is no donbt but' that some extra money will have to be raised. There is but oue way to get it—tax the folks who have the money to pay their taxes. Mocksville Gets Split In Games. The Mocksville high school cage teams split a nice double bill with the Spencer teams at Spencer, the local girls having an easy time de feating tbeir opponents, 31 to r 4 while the boys lost, 18 to 2 9 . The girls clicked smoothly in their game and put up a passing and.-shooting attack which was too miach for the Spencer lasses. Rodwell. with 13 points, and “ Pee Wee” Craven, with u mark er.“, were the scoring aces for Mocks- vi!le, and Foster plaved an excell ent game at center and also shot seven points to feature the girls game.

Let’s shake hands on i t ” They shook hands. “You’re a sm art devil,” said Crooked Bill adm iringly. “Fm sort of sorry I conspired against you, but I had my reasons. I w anted Glenn H ack ett my attorney, to be my nephew-in-law. H e’s a gentlem an.” “So am I.” “You’re a wild Irish b an d it You ju st get by, and one of these days you’ll n o t Somebody will tunnel you y e t”. They had dinner, a fte r which they stroUed over to Don Prudencio Al- viso’s office and closed the sale of the sheep. “And now,” Crooked Bill de manded, w hen the deal w as consum m ated, “I’ll forgive you a whole lo t Jlm H iggins, if you’ll tell m e how come you got on to me.” So D on Jaim e told him . "Serves me right,” the old gentlem an declared. “I played my hand poorly. Well, Fm out of th e sheep business, it seems, so about all th at’s left for me to do now is to go back to New York.” “Oh, say not so, D n d e BiiL Ju st go back to-the hotel, climb into yonr reg u lar clothes and come along out to the ranch w ith me. You’ll surprise Ro berta. She’U think I sent for you, just to give her a pleasant surprise, and she’ll be very grateful. Thus. I shaU boom my stock a bit with her. Be sides, I w ant you to see Valle Verde.” "I saw It twenty-five years ago.” “You’d , never know the old home stead now. I w ant to show you the room you’U occupy six m onths of the year. Then, w hen I visit you a t Dobbs F erry you can reciprocate and Bhow m e the room F ll occupy there six' m onths of the year—provided I m arry Roberta.” "Y ou going to ask her?” "A t th e proper tim e.” "T hanks fo r the proffer 'of your hos pitality, son, but Fll not accept i t You see. I ’m going to put the skids under you and it Just wouldn’t be right to harbor such intentions w hile under your roof.” “So you’re going to m ake R oberta come home, a re you?” "T hat’s the program .” “Got a good excuse?” “The best In the world. I’ve made a n o th e r'kUUng in the m arket, the sheep' have been sold to advantage, and she hasn’t an excuse in the w orld for hanging around Valle Verde'wait;- ing for you to screw your courage up to the point of proposing.” Don Jaim e sighed. “Well, Fm not exactly shackled to those sheep. I have good men to care for them. I suppose there’s a hotel of sorts in Dobbs Ferry w here I can put up whUe paying coast to Roberta,” he announced plaintively. “She’ll invite me to the house, of course, and you’ll have to stand for I t because you can never give a good and sufficient reason for objecting to me. You know, deep in your wicked old heart. Uncle Bill, that I’m quite a fellow. Before I ask Ro berta to m arry me I mean to be cer tain she’s ■ going to like Texas well enough to live in it. I w ant to know th a t life will not be dull for her on “You Confounded Latins Are Too Mercurial.” Valle Verde. I w ant her to know the job I’m doing and w hy I’m doing it. I w ant her to realize th at if she m ar ries m e she’s got to be an asset, not a liability. Consequently, I w ant her to stay another m onth, a t least, and learn things.” "She’d never be happy w ith you. You’re too fierce and tough, In your; friendly, hum orous way, which is jusj? yonr camouflage. You’re' a dangerous man.” “Look here, Uncle Bill, has it oc curred to you th a t an H iguenes is step ping out of his class to m ate with' an A ntrim ?” ; All the fierce, hot pride of his Spanish ancestors w as flaring in Don Jaim e’s black orbs. “You knew m y father. You know the tribe of H iguenes. W e have no fam ily skele tons, and if Tom A ntrim suborned one m urder he suborned half a dozen. My Spanish ancestors w ere not peasants, F ll have you understand.” “Oh, I know th a t I It’s your Irish ancestors th a t I object to.” “Ireland w as Ireland when England w as a pup. My Irish ancestors w ere tw anging harps In T ara’s halls when your Anglo-Saxon progenitors were blubbering because somebody had stolen their bearskins and left them naked.” “Oh, well, let’s not talk about I t You’ve had your way w ith m e and now I’ll have my w ay w ith you If I can. I wouldn’t fool you, boy.” C H A P T E R X I An hour later Crooked Bill boarded the train for E l Paso, but before doing so he sent the following telegram to Glenn H ackett: “The ship is sunk w ithout a trace .so brace yourself for bad news stop This Higgins boy gave me cards and spades four aces big and little casino and bet m e to death on the sweeps stop I am m ighty sorry you have lost but far, from depressed th at he ap pears to be going to Win stop I belong in a home for the feeble-minded.” A t alm ost the sam e tim e Don Jaim e joined Ken H obart in front of the M ansion house. “Any luck?” H obart queried anx iously. ‘T m in the sheep business and may God have mercy on my soul, Ken. To m orrow morning we’ll pay off that gang of m urderers Dingle has herd ing those sheep and put our own men on the job: D ingle gets the raus, too.” “Well. you’U clear a nice profit I -won’t you, chief?” “W h at"' replied Don Jaim e mourn- fully, - “doth it profit a m an If he gaineth the whole w orld and suffereth th e loss of the lode-star of his exist ence?” “None w hatever," Ken adm itted, w ithout knowing in the least w hat he was, talking about. Five m iles outside Los Algodones his sharp eyes observed- som ething far ahead and off the side of the road. H e. called Don Jaim e’s attention to i t In the starU ght a tiny red dot gleamed. “C igarette—M exican—careless,” Don Jaim e murm ured. “Ah, He’s doused i t G etting ready' for business.” He reached down into the tonneau and brought up a carbine; sim ultaneously K en H obart, swung the car off the road and w ent crashing aw ay through the low sage In a wide arc. “There m ay be holes and dry w atercourses on this roaj),” he announced calmly, “but .we’ll have to take a chance.” He switched off the lights just as a volley of rifle fire broke the stillness of the .night. The car was h it tw ice but most of the bullets droned over head. Don Jaim e pumped his carbine, firing a t the flashes, and the car crashed o n ; when the magazine w as empty he set the rifle back in the ton neau. “They’ll be careful after that,” he. announced calmly. ‘‘They'll not close with us, because they know we’re bad medicine a t close quarters, Ken. B et ter swing back into the road.” They did, and reached the hacienda without further incident Don Jalm e alighted and entered the patio, w hile Ken H obart drove the car to the garage. Roberta ran sw iftly to meet Don Jaim e. “You’re safe, Jimmy?” she cried In a choking voice. “Reasonably so, Bobby,” he replied. “My inform ation w as correct. Din gle’s crowd of imported killers laid for us. Well, that finishes Bill Dingle In Las Cruces county. Tomorrow he goes and on the run, or somebody will be carrying him to slow music that he won’t hear. H ave you been worried, Bobby?” he asked gently. She nodded. “It’s been a long tim e since anybody worried over me. Bobby. W hat will I do when you’re gone?” “W hat did you do before I came, Jimmy? And I------think—Jimmy, I’d better go soon. There’s really nothing more of a business nature for me to attend to. There never was, in fact— just a few papers to sign, some sheep to look at—and they’re really your worry, not mine. This afternoon I re ceived a letter from my uncle. It seems that after losing his money on a big rise, he plunged again on tb e' s„ame stock, anticipating it would drop sharply. Our friend—Glenn H ackett— backed him, and I secured Gienn with an assignm ent of the Antrim estate. There are no other heirs, you see. Well, the stock perform ed as expected, and Uncle Bill is on his feet again. Glenn is paid back, and Uncle Bill w ants me to sell the sheep for what-, ,ever I . can get for them and come home.” , .'‘Well, that’s certainly . very nice. JnejWs fpr all hands with the exception, of the . Higuenes boy. I. don’t w ant you to . go;, Bobby. - We’re ju st getting ac quainted, with each other.” “And I don’t w ant to go, either—so so'ori, It’s been wonderful to visit Vaile Verde. It's quiet here, so peace ful. At first I thought it such a for lorn country, but now I can see beauty In 'i t I can understand why you love it, Jimmy, and why you wouldn't-give It up for anything In the world. It’s yours. This land is p art of you, these people are your responsibilities. It m ust be wonderful to have responsi bilities. You m ustn’t take risks. You m ustn’t fight w ith th at Dingle man.” “Oh, there will be no fight FU just tell him to get out of Las Cruces coun ty arid he’ll get out. By the way, is Glenn H ackett a pretty fine fellow?” . “As fine as a m an can be, I think.” “Are you going to m arry him, Bob by?” “No.” She fairly fired the word at him. “Excuse me for being curious about your business R oberta, but I just w anted to know if you bad a reason able excuse for going back to New York. You’re very welcome here. W on’t you please stay a little longer?” “No, I think not, Jimmy.” H e shrugged. “Well, suit yourself. B ut anyhow, we’ll tie a can to Dingle and his men before''you go.” H estifled a little yawn. “Fm tired, Bobby. B reakfast a t six tomorrow morning. W ill you Join me? Then we can get an early start for the old Antrim ranch and jolt Mr. Dingle oiit of his complacency.” She nodded and turned aw ay to hide the tears of mortification th at were welling to her eyes. W hy couldn’t he see th at she did n o t’ w ant to leave Valle Verde a t aU? W hy had he riot urged her to stay? Of course he had urged her, but then he had not been persistent in it. If he had persisted she would have reconsidered. No, he did not love her. Absolutely not! Out w ardly he was fiery ; Inwardly he was cold. Roberta felt, very miserable as she bade him good night w ith a little catch in her th ro a t A t breakfast Jim m y noted the faint circles under her eyes and rejoiced exceedingly th ereat “W hen they w orry so about a fellow th a t they can’t sleep, a deaf m an .'with his ear to the ground m ay not infrequently catch the faint sound of distant wed ding bells.” he reflected. They chatted in desultory fashion during the m eal; then R oberta w ent to fetch her coat and hat. She w as w ait ing for him at the patio gate when he em erged from the ranch office, a car bine in his hands, a belt of am m uni tion around his w aist and the two pearl-liandled pistols tied down to his legs. Julio brought th e en closed car up and when they cllmoed in, Roberta noticed th at beside Julio sat Ken H obart He w as arm ed sim ilarly to his chief and carried a spare carbine—for the use, in an emergency, of the boy Julio, doubtless. An hour later they pulled up a t the Antrim ranchhouse. Ken H obart gbt out, walked to the front door and banged on it loudly. A Chinaman. In a greasy apron, opened i t “W here’s Dingle?” the forem an de manded. “H e go ketchum sheep. No come back long time.” H obart walked around the house and inspected the interior of an equal ly dilapidated barn. “I imagine the Chinaman’s telling the truth. Dingle’s car i§ not in th e 1 barn,” lie reported. “We’ve had our drive for nothing. Keri. Well, we’ll go back to Valle Verde, put a couple of saddle horses in a truck and run down to the range w here the sheep are. W e'll go as fa r as we can w ith the truck, and this car, then unload and ride up into the hills. Game for the journey, Bobby?” She nodded and they w hirled across the dusty plain to Valle Verde. H ere four horses w ere saddled and led up a ram p into a large motor truck, and, preceded by the m otorcar, they headed down the road tow ard Los Algodones. They left the road presently and broke trail, across the sage to the foot hills, where the ramp w as let down from the rear of this motor truck and the horses backed out. “K en,'yoti and Julio ride in a north easterly direction.’’ Don Jaim e ordered. “Miss Antrim and I will ride. In the general direction of that butte yonder to the southeast. Aurelio, you, WiU re main here w ith the truck and motor- ■car. JAV0 .wHJ meet here not Jater than four 5 o’clock' itbis riifternoon, Sen.” Roberta- m ounted tl;<s hunter 'D on Jaim e had givenher. To her surprise she found a light carbine protruding from a holster swung under the sw eat leather on her stock saddle, and a belt of cartridges hung over the pommel. “Am I expected to do some shooting in the event of emergency, Jim m y?" she queried. t “Not a t all. But you can shoot—a t least th at magazine artiqle I read- about yon so stated. If we should get separated, even briefly, Fd feel better to know yon were arm ed. I’ve been charged on this range by wild hogs.” "In th a t event I imagine I can take care of myself.” she assured him. They rode steadily into the south east, gradually climbing the butte; when they reached its crest a wide val ley lay outspread before and below them, and Don Jaim e reined In his horse. W ith his binoculars he sw ept the country for miles In every direc tion, but there was no sign of the vast flock. “It would seem we’re In for a good hard ride if we are to find Mr. Dingle w ith those sheep,” Roberta ventured, as he lowered the binoculars. “They were in that valley yesterday and two mUes south of it the day before. There’s feed for a week yon der. . . . I don’t understand.” H e searched with the glass again to the south, then handed it to her. “Do you see a slight film of w hite dust in the sky—rising beyond those low slate- colored hills yonder?” H e pointed. R oberta adjusted the glasses and looked. The,-;cloud in question was very fa in t but—it w as a cloud. "Sheep raoving^-south,” Don Jaim e informed her laconically. “Roberta, I have a hunch your Mr. Dingle Is yon der with th at dust cloud headed for Mexico w ith the said sheep.” “You mean—he’s stealing them ?” “I do, There’s fair range below, the R!o G rande for sheep—and it,-Isn’t at all a difficult job for the Dingles of this world to get across the Une with out being detected. Well, we can’t af ford to lose our. sheep, can we?” “it would mean a severe loss,” Ro berta answered. “Is there no way to stop him?” (TO BB CONTINUED.)

By EDWARD W. PICKARD Chancellor Chamberlain Gr e a t Br it a in has been invited to discuss with the United States the w ar debts with a view to revision and possible reduction, the invitation having been extended [ by the Hoover admin istration with the al- I most certain concur rence of President- Eiect Roosevelt The ; conference, if the Brit ish accept, will be held in M arch; and it will be followed im mediately by sim ilar conferences with the nations that are not in default In payment to this country, name ly, Italy, Lithuania, Czechoslovakia, Finland and Latvia. B ut Secretary of State Stimson, in sending out the invitations, omitted France, Belgium, Poland, Hungary and Esthonia, the nations th at have de faulted; and this, too, it is under stood, m et with the approval of Mr. Roosevelt, who will be President when the negotiations are under way. However, there were indications in W ashington th at Mr. Roosevelt will have arranged separate conferences with the defaulters. England is espe cially interested in having France in cluded in 'sucb arrangem ents as may be made, believing a final settlem ent of debt and economic subjects cannot well be reached unless France is taken into account. Representative Rainey of Illinois. Democratic floor leader in the house, seemed to be roused by the news. "The conferences won’t am ount to anything, in my opinion," Rainey said, "because the American people are not going to stand for a reduction in the debts. “The debt conferences should be linked with the world economic con ference. The thing to do is to bring about a removal of international trade barriers so that trade can be revived. The conferences already projected hold only a possibility of opening np trade routes and giving the debtors a chance to pay.” England accepted the invitation, and her stand on the w ar debt ques tion was stated plainly by Chancellor •Neville Chamberlain In an address be fore the Leeds Chamber of Commerce. Briefly, the British government will ask either cancellation or reduction so drastic that it will almost amount to the same thing. If this cannot be obtained, said Chamberlain, the settle m ent reached m ust be final and must not involve resumption of the German reparations. "To disturb the Lausanne agreem ent,” he said, "would be to re open old wounds and to destroy for an indefinite period all prospect of agreem ent on m atters affecting the happiness and prosperity not merely of Europe but of the whole world.” U ndertaking to explain the m atter to “the farm er of the Middle' W est,” the chancellor said that if the w ar debts paym ents were to be resumed they could not be made by loans or by further shipm ents of gold. "EP fective means of paying,” be contin ued, "would have to be found and they could only be found by increasing sales of foreign goods to America or, w hat would come to the sam e 'thing, by diminishing purchases from Amer ica.” Sen. Norris THERE will be no more lame duck sessions of congress, for. the Twen tieth amendment to the Constitution has now been ratified by more than 36 states and will go into effect October Ifi n ex t Action by the M issouri legislature, clinched it, and sev eral other legislatures cam e into line the sam e day. Under this am endm ent both sen ators and representa tives assum e office on January 3 following their election. The President and Vice President take office on January 20 following-electfon. The newly elected congress is autom at ically called into session on January 3 and on the sam e date one year later. Tbe changes do not affect the term s of Hoover and C urtis or. any m ember of the present congress. Adoption of the amendment is some thing of a personal victory for Senator N orris of Nebraska who fought for it through many years. It was. passed by the senate several, tim es' but al w ays previously was blocked In the house. INFLATIONISTS are becoming more vociferous and apparently more num erous-daily In W ashington, but a t this w riting they have not got any w here. Their first big effort was put forth .during debate oh the G lass bank ing bill in the senate. W heeler of M ontana, independent Democrat, of fered an am endm ent providing for the free coinage of silver a t the ratio of sixteen to . one—the old formula of W illiam Jennings Bryan—and Huey Long of Louisiana proposed another am endm ent authorizing the govern m ent purchase of silver and stabiliza tion a t approxim ately 14.38 to I. A fter: violent discussion both these schemes were defeated, by a vo.te of 56 to IS in each case. D uring the debate Senator Tom Con- nally of Texas increased the perplexity o f the senate by announcing he was preparing a m easure to debase the gold- content of 'the dollar by one- third and perhaps, if it were consti tutional, to forbid individuals making contracts calling for paym ent In dol lars of current weight and fineness. Both Senator Glass and Senator Fess argued strongly against all the infla tion proposals, as did Reed of Penn sylvania. A fter being badly mangled by am endm ents the Glass banking bill w as passed by the senate. Its fate in the house is' problematical. FARMERS are to have, the oppor tunity of borrowing $90,000,000 from Uncle Sam with which to produce this year's crops, unless the bill passed by congress is killed by a Presidential veto. The m easure makes available the sum named of the unused balance of $200,000,000 of R. F. C. funds allo cated to agriculture. The loans will be m ade for planting, fallowing and cultivation, and the secretary of agri culture is empowered to exact from borrowers agreem ents to reduce acre age not to exceed 30 per cent. One million dollars is allocated for feed for farm live stock In drought and' storm stricken areas. Farm bloc members of congress de-| fended the bill, asserting there would be w idespread suffering on the farm s unless sucb loans were authorized. Many member, however, attacked it as paternalistic, socialistic and bound to increase farm product surpluses. Snell of New York, m inority leader, declared it w as utterly inconsistent with the pending domestic allotm ent measure, the purpose of which is to increase farm product prices and de crease acreage. The senate agriculture" committee, began hearings on the domestic allot m ent bill W ednesday, hoping they wotHd be completed in a week or so. The same argum ents for and against- it th at w ere heard in the. house-were repeated. MR.ROOSEVELT, In W arm Springs after h is . inspection of Muscle Shoals, w as busy studying the prob lems th at will come before him and conferred with many notable men of his party and a few who are not of that per- stlaslon. Among his callers were several who, according to the cabinet makers, have good chances of being offered portfolios. Among these was Bronson Gutting, the senator from N e w Mexico who bolted the Republican ticket last fall and helped elect RoosevelL The gossip w as th a t be would be made secretary of the Interior if he were willing to accept the place. Senator Cutting was' accompanied on his visit by Senator La Follette of Wisconsin, another “rebel” Republican. B ernard M. Baruch of New York, chairm an of the emergency national transportation committee, also w as In W arm Springs helping the President- Elect prepare his program and giving advice especially on the railroad sit uation. There, w as talk that he might be appointed secretary of state, prob ably the only cabinet position he would take, though many still thonght that position would go to either Senator W alsh of M ontana, Owen D. Young or Norman Davis. Mr. Roosevelt told the correspondents be m ight announce one cabinet choice before going on his yacht trip, but no more than one. Pre sumably that will be Jim Farley, who it. is conceded w ill be postm aster gen eral. P RESIDENT HOOVER vetoed the * GrSt deficiency bill, carrying appro priations of $31,000,000 and the house upheld bis action, the vote being 192 to 158. The President disapproved of the m easure because he and Attorney General Mitchell held unconstitutional a provision placing control of all sub stantial refunds from income, gift and inheritance taxes in the bands of a joint congressional committee. Sena tor M cEellar indicated th at he would m ake another attem pt to remove con trol over refunds from the treasury. CRIM INATION of the citizens’ milt- tary training, camps as an economy move w as rejected by the house, which added $2,500,000 to the W ar depart ment appropriation bill to insure their continuance. Also $500,000 w as add ed: to the appropriation for the re serve officers' corps. The measure w as then passed. The senate finance committee re ported the bouse beer bill amended to include wine and to provide 3.05 per cent alcoholic content This measure may get through congress before ad journm ent but probably will be vetoed U It does. Sen. Cutting PLANS lo r the inaugural of Mr. Roosevelt are rapidly nearing com pletion and the stand from which the new President and other dignitaries Wiil review the parade is being con structed. The inaugural committee, beaded by R ear Admiral Cary D. Gray, son, is really arranging for quite a big show despite the request of Mr. Roose velt th at the affair be simple and Inex- pensive. The committee decided that the parade should be lim ited to about 10,000 m archers who will take two hours to - pass the stand. As now planned it will be in four divisions led by Genera] Pershing as grand m arshal. CANADA scored a victory In a rum running case that w as-ruled on by the Suprem e c o u rt It grew out of -the seizure of the Nova Scotian rum ship Mazel Tov. The court held th at in cases of vessels of British, and Canadian registry, the 1924 treaty with G reat B ritain superseded the provi sions of the 1922 and 1930 tariff acts. The opinion declared therefore that coast guardsm en may board, search, and seize B ritish and Canadian ves sels only when they are less than one hour’s sailing distance from the Amer ican shore, instead of within a 12-mile lim it as provided by the tariff a c t A LEXANDER, the handsom e young king of Jugoslavia, accompanied by Queen M arie and his foreign m inis ter, Bosko Jeftich, spent the week in R um ania visiting Eing Carol a t the latter’s country place, ,Sinaia palace. Officially it w as ju st a fam ily vis- Z h W it, M arie being Carol’s I j iSSi sister, but the cotre- M spondents said it was m for th e purpose of H seeking a common front on ...the question of equal arm am ents, due to come up for discussion in Geneva on January 31. The little entente powers, which include these two nations and Czechoslovakia, did not like the action of the great powers in giving Germany judicial equality in arm am ents w ith out consulting the little entente, and they propose now to demand more con sideration when im portant m atters come up at Geneva. King Alexander was especially anx ious to get Rum ania's backing on a protest which Jugoslavia plans to raise against Italy’s alleged pouring o f m a chine guns and m unitions into H un gary through A ustria. Diplomats in B ucharest said an im portant side-issue of th e royal visit would be a private conference con cerned with the problem of restoration of form er King George as the ruler o f Greece.. Such restoration, it w as explained,- would be immensely valu able to Jugoslavia, since; a friendly Greek, governm ent - would secure :; use of Saloniki harbor for Jugoslavia: should circum stances demand. King Alexander SOUTH AMERICA’S two unofficial w ars attracted considerable atten tion during the week.' Colombia sent a joint note to signers of the Kellogg pact asking th at they call upon Peru not to violate the treaty a t Leticia, tow ard which a Colombian flotilla w as steam ing to recapture the town from the Peruvian N ationalists who seized it some tim e ago. The place was ceded to Colombia by Peru un der a treaty signed-In 1922. The Peru vian governm ent asked the League of N ations to order suspension of "all m easures of force” in the Leticia area. . Secretary of State Stimson hurriedly called to bis home the diplomatic representatives of the powers signa tory to the Kellogg pact to consider this critical situation. He then sent a note to Pern invoking the pact and making it plain th at the U nited States considered Peru w as in the wrong in the dispute. Bolivians and Paraguayans were fighting desperately for possession of F ort Nanawa in the disputed Gran Cbaco and both sides claimed the ad vantage. The, battle lasted for . days and the casualties were numerous. REPORTS from Tokyo said the Jap anese cabinet had decided th at Ja pan’s w ithdraw al from the League of Nations was inevitable and had • in structed Yosuke M atsuoka to restate his country’s position In regard to M anchuria and then leave Geneva for home; • Foreign M inister Yasuya Uchida w as understood to have Informed the cabinet that application of paragraph -four of article fifteen by the league, under which recommendation for defi nite action In the M anchurian dispute can be made, appeared almost certain.

John 1=:8. j PRIMARY TOPIC—A Story Jesus Told.JUNIOR TOPIC—The Right Way to Hear,INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—How to Hear.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—Fruitful Christian Living. In order to understand why C hrist at this tim e began teaching in par ables, we m ust consider the nature of the hour in his m inistry. Oppo- sitidn to him w as becoming more defi nite and hostile. The parabolic m eth od w as not employed by Jesus until the rulers had set their hearts against him. W hen in the light of his won derful w orks they turned against him and attributed his w orks to the devil (M ark 3:22), he denounced them In scathing tefm s and began to teach In parables in fulfillm ent of Isaiah- 6 :10. A great m ultitude gathered to hear him a t the seaside (v. I), so th at in order to escape th e pressure of the crowd he w as obliged to enter a boat. From th e boat as a pulpit, he- taught many things in parables. In the par able now under consideration, the sow e r and the seed a re the sam e in ail instances, but the results are entirely different T he difference lies In the condition of the soiL The central pur pose of the teaching of this parable Is to show th a t th e results of preaching the W ord of God depend upon the con dition of th e hum an h e a rt I. T heW ayside (w . 4:15). - Th* w ayside means not the road but the tra c t betw een the fields beaten down by the hoofs of anim als and the feet of men. Because the soii was unbroken and uncultivated the seed could not get underneath the surface, and. therefore w as devoured by the fow ls that came along (v. 4). The great truth taught here is th a t the heart unbroken and Itard is not fit soil for the gospel. Such a heart it penetrates not, but lies loosely upon its surface. The gospel is not given recognition by such hearts us God's m eans for restoring them unto himself. Because of this condition the evil one finds som e w ay to snatch aw ay the truth (v. 15). IL The Stony Ground (vv. 5, 6, 16, J7>. • T his m eans not stones mixed with soil, but stones w ith a tbin layer of Soil, on top of them. W ith sucb con dition the seed springs up quickly and likew ise scorches quickly because it has not depth of earth. The great lesson .is th a t hearts superficially im pressed receive the word with Jey, but when affliction or persecution arises, for the word’s sake imm ediately they are offended. They w ither aw ay and die. III. The Thorny Ground (vv. 7, 18, 19). In-this case the ground is good but has thorns in it. I t is mellow enough and has sufficient depth but has hot been cleared of the thorns. Such really bear the W ord, but "the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts o f other things entering in. choke the word, and ■ it beconieth unfruitful’’ (v. 19). Tlie th o rn y ground bearers of this world are those, I. W ho are so im m ersed in worldlt- riess, business and anxious cares that the good seed cannot come to fruit age. ,2. Who are rich. Anxious care In business brings riches and the effect of riches is to blunt the spiritual per ception of men and women, thereby rendering them nnsusceptibJe to God’s call to higher things in life. 3. W ho are running a fte r the pleas ures of life. Many of the enjoym ents of th e world may he innocent in them selves but they attract so much at tention and consume so much energy and tim e that Bible reading, m edita tion, and prayer are crowded out. AU these things choke th e W ord. IV, The Good Ground ( ^ .8 .2 0 ) . This ground is different from all the rest. It is soft and mellow, and deep and moist. Therefore, it is capable of bringing forth fruit—some one hun dred, some sixty, and some thirtyfold..

A brochure by W. E Culkin, of D uluth, on th e early history of th a t region brings out the interesting fact th a t a B ritish proposal, m ade follow ing the W ar of 1812, actually gave th e vast iron deposits of M innesota to the U nited States, which had laid no claim to territory north of th e headw aters of th e M ississippi. Once in early days, says M r. Cul kin, th e C ontinental congress even proposed the forty-ninth parallel of latitude as the boundary line. Im agine the m ap of w hat is now M innesota, if th a t line had been adopted in the boundary treaty. The C anadian boundary would bave run right through the north side of M inneapolis. The forty-fifth parallel, m arked by a boulder on Glenwood parkw ay near the N ineteenth avenue road crossing, is right on the line of T w entieth avenue north, low er B road way, and on th e line of Broadw ay east o f th e river. E verything north of th a t line w ould be B ritish, includ ing the cities o f Stillw ater, Litchfield. W illm ar and M adison.

The expressions from busi ness loaders were of the sam e tenor. Iliey thought, and still believe, the ab sence of congress from W ashington for a while would serve as a tonic for the country by allowing business to move along undisturbed during that time. * * * Heavy Work Ahead. There is no better way to depict n-hat kind of a job confronts the ex tra session than to set down some of the things pressing for decision. H ere are just a few of them : The unbalanced federal budget, with its family of related questions like taxation, economies in governm ent, abolition or consolidation of govern ment functions and the policies neces sary to carry out those decisions. Unemployment relief, w ith the fur ther call for federal funds for loans to financial houses, railroads, cities and states, and now it is even proposed to make loans to school districts. War debts, to which is inseparably linked proposals for a world economic conference involving tariff policies, economic restoration, monetary stand ards (involving valorization of silver), and re-establishment of foreign trade. Inflation of the currency and its Si amese twin, domestic mortgages, both farm and city. Allied with these two questions necessarily is the question of ways and means to pull our own country out of the depression, and leg islation revising national banking and federal reserve laws. The dem and for Immediate payment of the veterans* bonus has a place in the same picture. Prohibition in its various phases. The whole category of agricultural problems and prices of commodities and questions of production and distri bution. These are not mentioned in the order Of their importance, but they all are with us. and they all m ust be dealt with. • • * Left-Overs on Card. No one doubts that the extra session will continue for a good many weeks. There is much to be done. A. consid erable portion of the work to be faced results directly from Democratic party Pledges upon which victory w as won. ut, important as those are, the things at will be left ,over from the present’ o-nothing session of congress prob- Jady are equally, if not more, impor- ,1Itlat is to say the D em ocrats have ded to their burden by being unable er unwilling to form ulate and pass a e nite program of legislation in the arrent session. Take the question of e treasury’s finances, for example, ajority Leader Rainey, of th e Dem- ocratic-controlled house, has abandonedany attem pt to balance the bud- Kt1 or even take steps to do so, in the art session. Taxes and governm ent .Joaamies are all tied up in a neat a ale in that one question. It will n°t be easily solved. Of course, it m ust be stated that y program which the house puts rough under present conditions will a torn to tatters in the senate, w here even division of m em bership m akes action impossible. T hat is one kn I6 reasons cited, or suggested by Peaker Garner and Mr. Rainey for topping a financial program until erything is under the control of the aocrats. Set such a course obvi- Sly adds to the load o f th e extra I, Sl”n “ad there are m any observers sih-i- also tbat I* increases the pos- ■bty of Democratic factional fights. Tie rows which the D em ocrats will htlf- t0 setHc will not arise, in all Ieg- Win ' The trem endous m ajority In ,01aIte tor reasonably smooth sail- hib'u instance 011 sucb things as pro- But " repeal and lesser legislation, on Ttlen fe e e y questions are up, , . ons of taking m ore taxes from a idden electorate, the varieties of views will num ber a t least half as great as the num ber of representa tives and senators. Mr. Roosevelt cam paigned on prom ises of economy. H e proposed to the voters to do aw ay w ith a truckload or so of governm ent functions. M ost of the D em ocrats In congress made the sam e sort of argum ents. Now, how ever, it seem s as though some of them had their tongues in the cheeks. Economies are necessary, judging from the argum ent one bears In both house and senate, but make it apply to -the other fellow, firsL * * * Farm Relief and Banking. Among other things due to face the extra session are farm relief and banking legislation. If the senate takes the. house “farm parity bill,” the dom estic allotm ent plan under another name, it faces a certain veto from President Hoover. ' The hid I over which Senator C arter G lass (Dem.), of Virginia, has worked so long and ably to revise the national banking and federal reserve laws, is going no where in this session. So it is easy to see w hat gigantic forces will be exerted against two m easures which it appears Mr. Roose velt favors. Each of these bills has opposition spreading from coast to coast, but it rem ains to be seen wheth er that opposition is strong enough to break the unit of Democratic strength. Tlie character of the fight th at is to come over the G lass banking bill has been thoroughly dem onstrated by th a t which took place in the senate recently. It is no gam e a t which chil dren can play. T here are trem endous ly big bankers against it, and there a goodly num ber of little bankers against IL T heir objections are not to the sam e sections, but that’ is imma terial. T his banking legislation links right into the problem s of domestic debts, and that, in turn, is tied tike a knot about the use of the Federal Reserve system a s an aid to economic restora tion. Back of it all obviously are the two cam ps, one urging inflation of the cur rency ,even tc the point of abandoning the gold standard and the other group preaching sound money and retention of the gold standard. This phase of th e problem th at will be left on Mr. Roosevelt’s lap provides an entree in to the -picture for all of the varied patent medicine legislators who have their own plans for curing everything from the hives to an economic break down. Into this picture also is seen the probable advent of leaders in the movement to pay the soldiers’ bonus immediately. M any of them w ant to pay in currency th at has ju st come from the governm ent presses, and with nothing behind i t The dom estic debt situation also gives the self-appointed type of econo mic doctors another opportunity. T here are farm debts and debts of city home ow ners over whose -heads m ortgages hang. Plenty of w ords will rend the atm osphere about these con ditions. Probably some legislation will come o u t of the situation centering around debts. Changes in the bankruptcy law s are now impending, as I ex plained in an earlier dispatch. The consensus is th a t this legislation is moving in th e right direction and th at som ething w orthw hile will eventuate. T hat legislation, however, has only a very slight connection w ith the general farm problem. It may, and probably will, result in help In the case of m ortgages of city property, but it w ill not deal with m ortgages on farm lands. Those m ortgages are so great th at distinctive and separate consid eration m ust be given them. * * * Complex Foreign Questions. Mr. Roosevelt lately has given much thought to the w hote category of for eign questions, too. Some of them are in a situation a t present that indicates they are growing in complexity. I re fer to the Japanese-Far E astern con dition, particularly, but there are dis- . turbing elem ents in South and Central America as well. It can be seen, w ithout recourse to im agination, th a t these are closely r e lated to w ar debts. Any m ention of w ar debts connects up a t once w ith in ternational tariff policies, and Mr. Roosevelt is proposing some sort of an international new deal with respect to the high tariff w alls erected in ■ so many countries. Congress has said it would have nothing to do w ith any proposals for w ar debt revision, but it is going to have th a t subject before it w hether it likes the idea or not. It is extrem ely im probable th a t there will be any re vision, yet it m ust be recalled that such men ais Senator B orah (Rep.), of Idaho, have said they would not be averse to a scaling down of the w ar debts, provided they can enforce a lim itation on the other nations also to cut down on their expenditures for arm s and m unitions of w ar. L et it not be forgotten, -the B orah view is gaining. Then, too, It m ust be recalled that Senator H arrison, of M ississippi, a D em ocrat and an astu te leader, is pro moting an idea about world-wide agree m ent on tariffs and is seeking to en force reduction in arm s expenditures along w ith i t These a re all of uncertain form at p resen t B ut the ideas are not w ith out m erit in the opinion of leaders ev erywhere. They m ust be reckoned w ith, find in the extra session, too. Thus, when one studies the picture and observes all the detail, it can hardly be doubted th at the extra ses sion is in for a peck of trouble. The nature of the problem s and the condi tions of the people of this nation and of th e world preclude any evasion. t g), 193S. WestVrn Newspaper Union. American Heroines By LOUISE M. COMSTOCK P o lly M e r rill C 1ATHER and M other M errill had ■ gone off to a neighboring planta tion on business, leaving at home their three children, with sixteen-year-old Polly in charge, under careful instruc tions to keep Peter, aged three, out of m ischief; put the bread in to bake a t ten, and not to be afraid of Tories, as none had been seen thereabouts for some time. For this was in the year 1780, when the Revolution was nearing its close, and North Carolina w as overrun by the British. F ather and m other were scarce gone from home, however, when a band of the dreaded Tories were sighted ap proaching the house. Polly w as wise enough in the ways of these m araud ing bands to know they were probably after father’s money, of which he had received a fair sum In paym ent of a debt some days before. Quick as a thought, sending her younger sister to get the w allet which held the money out of its hiding place, she molded tl s bread dough into loaves. Then, pouring the gold into the bottom of her pans, she pressed the dough over it, and pushed her morning’s baking into the hot oven. - The British w ere indeed afier the money. VVhen Polly, with red cheeks and beating heart, defied them to find it, they commenced ransacking the house, and soon found Mr. M errill’s w allet, which had been emptied in such haste that a few coins rem ained in it. and roiled out on the floor. Polly w atched with her heart in her mouth. Then up ran little Peter, to pick up the money, give it to the officer, and crow delightedly, “Pretty money. More In fow er!” Polly’s heart sank. A pparently Pe ter had seen her hide the precious gold.. In terror she watched her little brother take the B ritish officer’s hand and lead him, out to the kitchen, and then, curiously enough, out the back door' to the flower garden. Then she sighed in relief. She knew w hat Pe te r had in mind. O tit in the garden the Tories com menced digging, ruthlessly uprooting rose bushes and alysuin. Finally their shovels hit something hard. In tri umph they dug up a wooden box. Opening it, they found the body of Peter’s pet rabbit, which had died to his inconsolable grief, and been buried in the garden the day before! A few m inutes later, alarm ed a t the reported approach of American troops under M arion, the chagrined Tories mounted their horses and rode away. M a r y L in d le y M u r r a y A CENTURY and a half ago it was w om an’s p art to mind her home and children and leave the m aking of history to the men. But Mary Lindley M urray not only minded one of the m ost splendid homes in early New York city, w as a popular hostess and m other of tw o charm ing daughters and of Lindley M urray, the fam ous gram m arian, but it has been claimed that but for her, , “The history of the U nited States m ight easily have been different!” M rs. M urray w as the wife of Rob ert M urray, the Q uaker m erchant aft er whom M urray Hill w as named. Al though hpr husband was known to have T ory sym pathies, she w as an a r dent rebel.

In August of 1776, W ashington retreat ed across E ast river and into lower M anhattan. By Septem ber 13 the Brit ish had gained control of both the E ast and Hudson rivers, so th at W ash ington felt his position in New York city untenable and commenced a re treat northw ard, to a more strategic location on H arlem Heights. This move w as only partially completed, and General Putnam with 4.000 men. nearly one-fourth of the Colonial arm y, still rem ained In lower M anhat tan, when the B ritish decided Ito throw a line across the island, cutting off further retreat. From her home at th e • corner of w hat is now P a rk avenue and th irty - seventh street, Mrs. M urray watched the retreat of the Americans and the coming of the B ritish with anxious eyes. She planned her cam paign. In view of he'r husband’s Tory sympa thies it w as but natural th at the Brit ish leaders, G enerals Howe and Clin ton and Governor Tyron, should stop by the M urray house for a ChaL More over, th eir tra p for th e Americans was alm ost set; General Putnam and Ols men w ere practically theirs.

Our Government —How It Operates By William Bruckart **"' I I t » » ■ I-I l i| IH I I , — T T , F E D E R A L J U D IC IA R Y TT IS a common m istake for persons to m isstate the title of the head of the federal judiciary.' He is chief justice of the United States, not the chief justice of the Supreme court of the United States, for his duties and powers are vastly broader than just those of presiding over the na tion’s highest judicial tribunal. HTie C onstitution provided for our system of courts, but it established only the Suprem e Court of the United States. It gave power to congress, however, to create the entire system of U nited States courts as it m ight see fit, and to th at end the legislative branch of the governm ent established the courts of original jurisdiction, calling them D istrict courts, and Ap pellate courts, which are known as Circuit Courts of Appeals, of which there are ten w ith a varying num ber of justices, depending upon the am ount of litigation in the circuit. D istrict courts, of course, are near est to the people. It is into th at court that the United States attorneys go seeking indictm ent and prosecution of violators of federal statutes, and it is into th at coui-t corporations and in dividuals go to seek abjudication of differences when their claims arise un der a federal law or when the defend ant resides in another state. The Dis trict courts, therefore, provide the cit izen with a means of reaching those against whom he has a grievance even though that individual or corporation be located across the continent. The nam e of the Circuit O m rt of Aiipeals defines its place in the ju dicial structure. It is j»st that, and in a great .m ajority of Ihe cases that reach it from the D istrict court, it becomes the court of last resort as a result of the power whit h the Sniirmne Court of the United States Inis. The highest court, can say and. indeed, it does say in the Iitilk of the cases de cided hy the several Courts of Appeals, that it will not consider them further. 'ITiat ends it. The question then is res adjudicata, to employ the legal phrase. The Suprem e court cannot avoid consideration of all of the cases, how ever, for if they involve a question of construing the Constitution, those cases can reach th e highest tribunal. Likewise, in a dispute between two states of the Union, the Suprem e court has to hear of the m atter, because in that instance it becomes a court of original jurisdiction and can have, a jury to hear the testim ony if it so desires. Appellate courts operate in some thing of the sam e fashion, except that they obviously have to exam ine every case th a t is appealed from the D is trict w here all of the evidence w as taken. Very frequently, it is true, they do not go far w ith the cases sent to them from the court of .original ju r isdiction, because a very great num ber are dism issed when the Circuit judges have satisfied them selves th at justice w as done in the court below. However, even then the litigants in the cases can ask the Suprem e court to review the m atter, but th at court may or m ay not let the cases come before it as it sees fit* It never re fuses, however, if there is a Consti tutional question Involved, or if seri ous doubt is shown as to rights of citizens under the statutes of their own states. From this it becomes evident that the Suprem e court transacts an enor mous am ount of business. It. has been said th at the Suprem e court is never able to catch up w ith its work. T hat is true, in a sense, for it alw ays has cases on its docket aw aiting decision. In another respect, the statem ent is untrue, however, for It alw ays allows itself tim e In which to study the questions before it and determ ine the far-reaching conse quences of. its,rulings, a condition of which every justice is mindful a t all tim es. Its reputed slowness, there fore, may be said to be in the inter est of justice to all. B ut I m entioned at the outset th at the chief justice had other work to do. W ithout attem pting to recite his duties In detail, it m ay suffice to show the character of his duties by calling attention to the fact, th at it is ah obli gation of his to see th at the Circuit courts keep up w ith their work. It Is quite obvious th at circuit judges sit ting in areas like the plains states, w here the population is scattered, have not the' am ount of w ork to do th at confront those sitting in a populous circuit like New York. The chief justice knows the status of the dock ets throughout the nations, and if, for example, the judges get behind In New York, one or m ore of the ju d g es. from elsew here in the nation is or dered to New York to help out. There are tw o other courts which should be m entioned in any discussion of the judiciary. They , are the Court of Cfiaims of the- U nited States and the U nited States. C ourt of Custom s and B atent Appeals. Both are In W ashington; Both have lim ited juris dictions. The C ourt. o f . Claim s is the ,only tribunal w here only the U nited States can be the defendant. In other words, it hears only- suits against the governm ent. The Court of Customs and P atent Appeals deals only with the highly technical questions relating to tariff duties and patent fights un der the law s affecting those tw o fields. Q, 1I32.

It w as evidently well known in Bibli cal tim es, for it is mentioned in Ex odus and several other places in the Old Testam ent. In the days of the pharaohs it w as used to glaze pottery, to m ake solder and ornam ental ob jects. Old lead pipes also have been found in Egypt. In ancient India women used red lead as a cosm etic; the m etal itself w as nsed for weights of all kinds, for purifying silver, as a charm and as an early m onetary me dium. The hanging gardens of Baby lon w ere floored w ith sheets of lead soldered together to retain m nistcre necessary to vegetation; Babylonians used lead also for caulking purposes and to fasten iron bolts in the ma sonry of bridges, dam s and the like. The ancient Chaldeans of l’ersia were the first to associate the metals with the planets, and their symbol for lead is Ih e same as that for Sa turn. In 2000 B. C. the Chinese made their first money of lead; in ancient Greece and Rome bronze coinage con tained from 3 to 30 per cent of lead. The Romans made general use of lead for w ater pipes, in 15 standard sizes and regular 10-foot lengths. Lead has long been used as an ar ticle of w arfare. Roman gladiators used lead knuckles to add force to their blows. M any famous w arriors, including the Black Prince and Rich ard II, lie buried in leaden caskets.

EXPLANATION: Under the clothes of the victim is a pipe, extending around one y side of his body from front to back. The needle, which is flexible, is inserted in the front end of the pipe, is carried around the body and emerges from the pipe in back.' This operation is per formed so quickly that the audience does not notice that the needle and thread are momentarily shortened during the act.

A supper that has all the charm of the sugnr-plums and the honey-dew has for dessert a cup of crushed canned pineapple, cool and sweet. Never was anything so good to eat nor so good for growing boys and girls. For nutri tional research has recently found canned pineapple to he a valuable source of fire minerals, essential to health, as well as a valuable source of vitam ins A, B, and C—a dis covery that makes the task of mothers much simpler. The delicate flavor and color of pineapple are especially appealing to children. Pineapple Is a food which rightly belongs in their own world of magic goodness. W hen it is served simply—a generous bowl ful of crushed pineapple—it is a treat which young Mary and Johnny find suited to their most epicurean tastes. Two slices a day or a cttp of crushed fruit is the am ount recommended to aid in the maintenance of health and growth.

New food research has found th at canned pineapple is a valuable source of five necessary m inerals and vitam ins A, B, and G Authorities recommend two slices or an equivalent’ am ount in crushed pineapple or tid bits in the daily menu as an aid in m aintaining health. In addition to its m ineral and vitamin content pineapple has been found to be a valuable aid to digestion of proteins such as m eat and eggs and to the prevention and relief of acidosis. A beneficial dietetic change wrought by tem peratures dur ing tne canning process is said to make these findings true of the canned rather than the raw fruit. Smart hostesses following the new dietetic advice, are serving the new pineapple cup made frpm the canned crushed fruit or tidbits as the first course for dinner or two slices for the break fast fruit, luncheon salad or for the dinner dessert And their guests pro claim it delicious.

T hat’s the great Ameri can breakfast—prepared with misgiv ings, swallowed in haste, not remem bered long enough even to be re pented. It is perhaps a great pity that the days when American breakfasts were mighty affairs, suited to pioneer ing activities, are gone forever. . Tet there are still ways to arouse even lagging modern breakfast appetites. One is to add the delicious tang of pineapple to the morning meal. And nutritional studies have recently re vealed a definite health reason for the addition. For canned pineapple has been found to be a generous source of vitamins A, B, and C and five es sential minerals. It is also revealed as an aid to the digestion of proteins such as m eat and eggs and to the prevention and relief of acidosis. So here is a modern breakfast suited to modern needs—appealing to the ap petite, healthful and simple to pre pare—two slices of pineapple, a cereal if, desired, two poached eggs on toast, and coffee.

D on Jaim e rode ahead, occasionally looking back to see th a t all w as w ell w ith the g irl; seemingly, in his eagerness for con flict, he w ould gladly have dispensed' w ith h er society If he could.

In fighting to defend my rights they fight for their own—and besides, we’ve all been raised together that way and there are some habits we do not care to break. ‘W hose salt I eat, his song I sing.’ A good slogan, and a very ancient one- in this country.” The girl w as sensible of a vague un easiness as he looked her over sternly. She had not pleased him and he did not disdain to m ake her aw are of the fa c t “Pm not a law yer," he shot out a t her suddenly. “W hat would your friend, Mr. H ackett, do if he w ere the ow ner of these sheep?” “I imagine he’d have some sort of th eft insurance on them, so he wouldn’t w orry if Dingle stole them . H e’d leave the w orry and the salvage and the prosecution to the insurance com pany.” “Everything for defense but not a cent for tribute, Bobby. It’s all in the point of view. Well, I suppose, now th at you’re out of the sheep business, Bobby, you’ll be going back to Dobbs Ferry in a day or two.” “Well, of course, I would stay over for your funeral, Jim m y.” She tried to appear jocular, but her quavering voice betrayed her real feelings.

Somei day, if I live, I suppose I’ll m arry some body else, but In the cool of the eve ning, darling, w hen th e day’s w ork is done and the H iguenes boy and his thoughts are alone together—well, I’ll do som e thinking.

Dully, she w atched him swing into his saddle and ride aw ay; w hen he had topped' the ridge he pulled up, looked back and waved his hand. Then he w ent over the sky-line. About three-thirty Ken H obart and Julio returned and found R oberta face downward in the grass, sobbing as if her h eart m ust break. W hen she raised her head a t H obart’s touch- it occurred to the general m anager that It would require m ore than a little rouge, and powder to repair the dam* age done by those tears. “W here is th e Big Boss?” he de manded In the m atter-of-fact tone of one who beholds nothing onusuaL R oberta held out a couple of leaves of paper—Don Jaim e's battle plan. Ho b art read I t “The boy has some sense a fte r all,” he decided. “Who says this is a dull country?” H e spoke to Julio. “Si, senor,” m urm ured Julio, and rode aw ay on Don Jaim e’s trail!

Well, if that saddle-colored hombre gets his, about all any of us can do is to sing “By-by, Blackbird!’ I im agine he’ll get killed—somehow.” “In heaven’s name, why?” “Well,” said Mr. H obart with exas perating deliberation, “he’s madly in love with you. Miss Antrim, but he realizes that’s all the good it’s going to do him. He realizes you’d never dream of m arrying the man who killed your uncle—” ‘My uncle was a scoundrel. He em ployed scoundrels.’’ ‘Still, he w as your uncle. You know, of course, that with Don Jaim e’s breed of cat an uncle is a kinsman, no m atter w hat he does.

If he thought there w as the least chance of your refusing him he’d never ask you to m arry him in a thou sand years.” “Indeed! Is th at possible, Mr. Ho bart?” Then, it suddenly dawning on her th at her conversation w ith Ken H obart hitherto could have been cov ered In five hundred words, she w as appalled, not only a t his garrulity but a t h er own. “Isn’t this conversation getting a trifle—personal and delicate, Mr. H obart?” she suggested. ‘‘Really, I haven’t the slightest idea why I am discussing such an Intim ate subject w ith you.” “Well, I have. I w ant to discuss it,” he replied calmly. “W hen I discover th at Don Jaim e has ridden aw ay to get killed because life won’t mean a thing to him after you’re gone—and when I find you ruining your peaches- and-cream complexion crying over this greaser—” “How dare you? He’s not a greaser!” "Nobody but a greaser would act the way he does. Well, as I was say ing, having discovered the lay of the land, I felt it . my C hristian duty to Interfere and offer som e'sound ad vice.” “W hat do you advise, Mr. H obart?” ; “W ould you m arry this Higuenes hombre if he asked you?” , R oberta blushed furiously and hung her head. ' “Come.” Mr. H obart urged, “this Is serious business. There’s a question before the house and it m erits an an swer. W ould you m arry the idiot and chuck all your sheep money Into the pot w ith him and help extend his Irrl- gation system and. buy about a thou sand pure-bred H ereford breeding Sows?” ; “I would, gladly. If I m arried him Td be his partner as well as his .wife. I could be a, good partner.” “None better," agreed Mr. H obart. “W ell, if you w ant him,, go get him.

I m ust head him off and send him down the road a few miles far ther, to save time.” H e made a flying leap to his horse and galloped aw ay to meet the riding boss. Ju st as Roberta disappeared over the sky-line he gave Enrico Caraveo his orders, then w ithout w aiting for his five men to follow he galloped sw iftly after the girl. “D—n it,” he m uttered, "I got so interested fixing things for Don Jimmy I clean forgot that girl w ears pants, and a two-gallon h a t Some one of those roughnecks may m istake her for a m an!” C H A P T E R X I I I The huge satisfaction felt by Ken H obart a t his interference in other people’s business w as shattered now, as he thought of R oberta, garbed in riding breeches and flannel shirt and w earing the conventional wide- brimmed and high-crowned hat of the country. Riding along the sky-line she could very readily be m istaken for a m an—and such mistakes, in the im pending circum stances, might reason ably be fatal ! It w as incum bent upon him, therefore, to catch up with her, to guard her approach to th a t old branding, corral in the-valley, to m ake h e r. take every advantage of the ground, to scout the territory for her. Also, a new and disturbing thought had occurred to him. W hat if Din gle had decided to make sure of the w ater for the sheep by taking posses sion of the water-hole before Don Jaim e could get there? Of course it was unbelievable that the latter would ride boldly up to the w ater-hole be fore m aking a careful reconnaissance, since instinct, the custom of the coun try, and his arm y training would in dicate th at course to him. On the other band, w as Don Jaim e’s mind completely on the task in band? W as it not probable that thoughts of a sentim ental nature m ight lull him into Indiscretion? Verily, Ken H obart could take no chances. There was Immediate need of haste and he hastened; and as he galloped along the backbone of the ridge he w as sicken- ingly aw are that, he w as not the only one who w as hastening. There w as Don Jaim e, to begin w ith, hurrying to get to the w ater- hole and consolidate his position. H e knew the country well and w as a hard, fast rider. A fter him came, on hot hoofs, his reinforcem ents—the de voted Julio.

D o a r v S ‘i l l s A Diuretic or the I *.;!l if 11 News Review of Current Affairs the World Over ^War Debt Parleys to Open in Washington Early in March; More Cabinet Speculation; Hitler Becomes Chancellor of Germany. By EDWARD W. PICKARD Sir Ronald Lindsay WAR debts, cabinets and econ omies—or the lack of them — drew much of the public attention daring the week. Sir Ronald Undsay, the British am bassa dor, spent four hours talking with Presi dent-Elect Rooserelt at W arm Springs, and then started home In a hurry to tell his gov ernment. w hat he had or had not learned , about the next admin- P^is ' W flIr 1 1 istrntion's intentions, v ." S r « N e i t h e r gentleman would Inform the peo ple concerning their conversation, though Sir Ronald said he was hopeful that his country and the United States might reach an accord on their economic problems. Mr. Roosevelt’s spokesman said little be yond the statem ent that the meetings In W ashington probably would begin early in March. U was understood in London that Prime M inister MacDon ald would be invited to come over and take part In the negotiations. The B ritish also were convinced that they would be required to give something substantial In return for even a re duction of the w ar debt, and gloomily they contended this conld not be done. R eturn to the gold standard, tariff preferences to American goods and ceding of territory were all declared out of the question. Italy and Czechoslovakia were the first nations to follow England’s ex am ple and aei'Viit the Invitation to the W ashington conferences. Onr own statesm en, of both par ties. were dubious concerning the wis dom of the course Mr. Roosevelt has em barked upon. Senator Jam es Ham ilton Lewis of Illinois. Democrat. In a speech in the senate w arned the in coming President not to em ulate the •‘mistake” of President Wilson In un dertaking to be his own ambassador. Senator David Reed of Pennsylvania, Republican, supported the position of Senator Lewis and indicated he would consider it “going over the head of congress’’ for Mr. Roosevelt to arrive a t debt agreem ents or understandings wiSi the foreign delegates invited here to discuss the question. Replying to Reed, Senator Lewis said he could not believe that Presi- dent-Klect Roosevelt bad gone over the head of President Boover and con gress to negotiate on the debts with Sir Ronald. Be asserted that it was bis opinion that Europe was attem pt ing to maneuver this country into a position where it could repudiate its eleven billions of debts. “I cannot believe.” Senator Lewis said, “that President-Elect Roosevelt would tolerate the British am bassador going to him to deal directly when be knows that if be reaches a Judg m ent it m ust be approved by the senate. “I will say to the senator from Pennsylvania that if the Presidents Elect were so to fall from bis plane of high character, his sense of obliga tion, his knowledge of statecraft, and bis allegiance to the American people as to deal directly over the heads of the President and congress, then I say that would be a folly he will re g re t" Mo m e n t a r i l y aroused to meet its responsibilities, the bouse passed one Important measure de signed to provide *slief in the depres sion. and sent It on to the senate. This was Hie bankruptcy bill to aid debtors In procuring reduction of their finan cial obligations or extension of time In which to pay. Its provisions apply to Individuals and corporations, and It Is believed to be of especial help t» the railroads. Ghalrman Pomerene of the Recon struction Finance corporation told a sesate subcommittee that the corpora tion would have to continue to Snance the railroads of the country unless the banks came to their assistance. He declared the banks were not doing their share, adding: "They get the Ceastry1S money, and then treat It as if it were in cold storage.” EXPERT 'cabinet m akers continued to put forth lists of names that' would be found In President-Elect Roosevelt’s official family, if their guesses were correct; but Mr. Roosevelt, ju st before leaving Warmi Springs for Jacksonville to em - bark on the Astoi yacht Nourmahai. of feted to bet the cor- Vefipoodents th at 8(1 ; per cent of their sto ries on tbe. cabinet would be wrong. An other nam e was. add ed to tbe possibilities wken Senator ("ordell Hvll w as summoned . to Georgia for a conference. It was at oiice asserted by tbe wise ones that H ap might be made secretary of state or. If another man was fonnd for that post, would be given some other port folio. Bernard M.. B aruch of Kew Tork continued a favorite for a cab inet place, but the speculators were guessing that he would be appointed secretary of commerce. Mr. Barucb has been very active In devising Dem ocratic m easures to reduce tbe cost of tbe federal government and was tbe author of the plank in his party’s platform that pledged a 25 per cent reduction. He thinks tbe limit of tax ing power has been reached and bas furnished Mr. Roosevelt witb an esti m ate of possible economies aggregat ing nearly $1,200,000,000 by which to balance the budget. Mr. Barucb is opposed to current plans for inflation, saying: “It is not money that is scarce; It is confidence in money. If tbe stability of money and credit were established beyond peradventure In tbe eyes of the world, tim id money would rush from biding seeking investment. "There would be more sound money asking to work than all tbe inflated money we purpose to create. It Is tbe bey to recovery, and it depends upon the simple expedient of balancing the budget in the only way left for us—by reducing spending by about one billion dollars.’* Bernard M Adolf H itler INSTEAD of trying to get a compre hensive farm relief program through tbe short session, the Democratic lead ers In congress are now concentrating on legislation to prevent farm fore closures. This was made plain by Sen ator Joseph T. Robinson of A rkansas In testimony before a senate subcom m ittee that was considering various farm mortgage relief bills. The bill which Senator Robinson thought should be taken as tbe basis of a m easure to halt foreclosures Is the Hull bill, which would give tbe R. F. C. $1,000,000,000 of federal money to be used in paying off farm mortgage holders, the farm er then agreeing to pay the government on easier terms. BOTH Germany and France have new governments, the form er be ing likely, to last indefinitely and the latter probably doomed to an early demise. Adolf H itler, leader of the National Socialists of tierm any, w as appointed chan cellor by President Von Hindenburg, who was In a dilemma a ft er the resignation of Gen. R urt von Schlei cher. The Nazi chief, however, w as com pelled to accept as members of his cab> inet enough of bis op ponents to leave ac- t jal control In tbe hands of tbe aged president, and to promise to observe tbe constitution of the republic. Foiv m er Chancellor Von Papen, one of Von Hindenburg’s favorites; was made vice chancellor, and four members of the Von ScbIeicber m inistry were re tained. They are Baron K onstantin von Neurath, foreign m inister; Count Lutz von Schwerin-Krosigk. Snnnce m inister; Baron Eitz von iieubenach, m inister of post and communications, and Guenther Gereke, employment minister. Dr. Alfred Hugenberg, leader of the N ationalist party, was made m inister of economics and agriculture. He Is a m onarchist and a warm friend of the form er kaiser. Capt. Herman Goering, H itler's right-hand man. be cam e a m inister without portfolio, acting m inister of the interior for Prussia and commissar of aviation, and is in control of all police forces In more tban half the republic. President Von Hindenburg dissolved the reichstag W ednesday and ordered new elections for March 5. The Nazis are confident that they will then ob tain a clear m ajority In the parlia ment. Speaking over the radio. H itler promised his government would save the farm er and provide Jobs for tbe “arm y of idle created in fourteen years of M arxist mismanagement In Germany.” Tbe Socialists, and Communists planned a united front against H itler and threatened a general strike. Of course there were many encounters between the elated Nazis and their foes, with a few deaths and consid erable bloodshed. Dr. Wilhelm Frick, the new Nazi m inister of the interior, said the government would oppose the strike plans with the sharpest meas ures. Since the Nazis are mostly anti- sem ites an-exodus of Jew s from Ger many Is predicted, indeed many Jew s already are leaving tbe country on various pretexts. When Frick was asked w hether be would move to ex tradite any of them he replied: "It these people leave, that Is something which we can only desire.” Continuation of H itler’s'rule depends largely on w hether he can obtain the support of the Catholic C entrists wh( have 70 members of the reichstaga They are especially antagonistic tit Hugenberg.

P iM PEROR HIROHITO and Prince *-* Saionji, last of the elder states men of Japan, have, approved tbe de term ination of Foreign M inister Ochi- da to recall the Japanese delegates from Geneva when the report of the committee of 19 is accepted by the League of N ations-and article IS. para graph 4, of the covenant is applied.- Nevertheless, to strengthen her posi tion, Japan has w ithdraw n certain of her objections to the league’s form ula for conciliation of the M anchuria dispute provided tbe league makes some concessions. The foreign office in Tokyo w as not hopeful that its term s would be accepted, and adm it ted th at Japan’s w ithdraw al from the league w as probable. Small powers on the committee of 19 defeated the B ritish In drafting' the final two findings In the report on tbe Chino-Japanese conflict Over' the protests of Anthony Eden. English member, who w as mildly supported by the French, it w as agreed In prin ciple to declare that the Chinese boy cott since September 18, 1031, when Japan started military operations in M anchnria. should be considered as a reprisal. The small powers consid ered that this amounted to justifying the boycott Regarding the other finding, it was agreed In principle to declare not merely that the Japanese actions of Septem ber IS, 1931, but also since then, could not be regarded as IegitimaM m easures of self-defense. Moreover. Sweden finally got this amended to add that the league alone, and not Japan, as that nation claimed, had the right to determ ine In such cases w bat constituted legitim ate self-de- fense. FARMERS of m iddle w estern states continued their efforts to balk m ortgage foreclosures on farm- lands and property, and i» many InBtanpes they were successful, either prevent5- Ing the sales or buying In the prop erties for a few cents and returning them to the owners. Responding to a request from the governor of Iowa, the New York Life Insurance company announced that it had suspended, foreclosures on farm properties In that state. O ther com panies took sim ilar action. In N ebras ka Governor Bryan named a board of conciliation to attem pt to bring debt ors and creditors together and obtain fair settlem ents. Farm leaders said tbis plan was no good. PLANS for protracted bearings on the beer and wine bill were canceled by tbe senate finance committee, de spite tbe Hrgings of Chairm an Sm oot N evertheless its chances for passage a t this session were considered re m ote’as both the repeal resolution and appropriation bills hare precedence over i t Senator W alsh of M assa chusetts said he would lead a fight to knock out of tbe bill ail provisions for federal control over tbe sale and m anufacture of beer; and Senator Bingham of Connecticut said he would work to replace the senate bill with the .bouse measure. Representative Fred B ritten of Illinois cam e to the front again with a bill for the repeal of tbe Jones 5 and 10 law which he declared w as now "thoroughly dis credited.” In the Canadian parliam ent two sep arate moves were made to kiH tbe law passed, by tb r old Liberal government prohibiting liquor exports to tbe O n it ed States so long as prohibition is the law of this land.

Western Nnrspaper Dnloa O u r G o v e r n m e n t —H ow It O perates By William Bruckart ^ D E P A R T M E N T O F L A B O R THERE is every evidence th at when, In 1913, congress passed a law creat ing the D epartm ent of Labor, th at few of those who were m ost vociferous In support of the proposal had any con ception of w hat the new departm ent of the governm ent w as to do. A re view of the debates of the tim e in dicates rather clearly th at somebody w anted to do’som ething for labor* but they did not know exactly w hat th at something should be. So I am prepared to say th at it was the adm inistrative officers who bave filled the several posts from secretary of labor down the line of rank who have made the D epartm ent of Labor som ething of value. Some of those ob servers-w ho w atched proceedings when congress enacted the law . tells m e liiat the movement had every appear ance of a “sop” to organized labor, and if their conclusion be true, it certainly can be said now that the legislators builded much better than they knew. The law which those legislators passed said the D epartm ent of Labor w as’ to prom ote the Interests of labor, of the w orking people of the country, th at their w orking conditions m ight be improved and that their opportuni ties m ight be advanced. W hile I still entertain some doubt concerning w hat congress thought this would mean, it has become quite evident that it is possible for the great Intangible thing, called governm ent to act in a very personal capacity when occasions require. It has so acted through the D epartm ent of Labor.' H ere is an Illustration: In a great textile mill of New Eng land, the w orkers clamored for better conditions; they w anted shorter work ing hours; they w anted assurance th a t they would not be dismissed w ithout notice; they w anted certain agree m ents with the ow ners a s to the rates of pay, and they sought an agreem ent w ith their employers to reach these understandings through a com m ittee of their own numbers. The employ ers turned a deaf ear to the proposals ’ and would not even discuss them . A strike was the alternative which the w orkers offered. One m ight say that was a private m atter and that the governm ent had no right to mix into it. B ut the Con stitution’s pream ble says th at the gov ernm ent is, am ong other things.- “for the people.” Surely, here w as an in stance w here som ething could be done for the people, for w orkers and em ployers alike. The D epartm ent of Labor did mix into the controversy. It sent several men to the scene. They listened to the grievances of the w orkers and to the statem ents of the employers. They suggested ways out, one after another, until they were able to get a committee from the w orkers and a com m ittee from the ow ners to sit In the same room. Eventually, these secret discussions, alw ays witb a.con ciliator from the D epartm ent of La bor participating, developed a com prom ise on which each side had yield ed certain concessions. The term s are not m aterial here, but suffice it to say there w as no strike In that mill and there prob ably never will be one for the reason th at each side learned som ething about fairness and the rights of the other fellow. T hat controversy w as simple com pared w ith some th a t arise and w ith which the departm ent has to deal In order to do w hat its officials regard as their public duty that there m ay be peace in commerce and industry. It shows, nevertheless, how the mul tiple eye of the governm ent is upon OS all. And In connection with this Idst ref erence, one m ust recall that In this sam e departm ent there is w hat has come to be known as tbe children’s bureau. It goes beyond the w orking m an in its course of duty. The wel fare of children of all classes come w ithin its surveillance, and through out the country one now finds juvenile courts, orphanages and other institu tions having to do with children who are receiving constant advice from the bureau in W ashington, D.C. It watches industry, too, that there may be no un due dangers developed, th at conditions conducive to disease may not be con tinued and that every aid w ithin the power of the national governm ent,is extended to correct them. A nother phase of the departm ent's work gives It control of the entry Into the Cnlted States of foreigners. Our Immigration law is perhaps the most stringent In the world, because It is o w policy to conserve our racial stand ards. The “melting pot” Is receiving no m ore foreign blood in quantity. The departm ent w atches this closely, and It sees to it th at those who are ad m itted either become American citi zens, sw ear allegiance to our flag and adopt- our traditions, or else-they go back home.. And this job of American izing foreigners Is one which obviously m ost strengthen our nation In order that it may live in the future. SK 1392, Western Newspaper Union. .

I The proponents of the hearings jus- ■ rify tlieir course with the statem ent i that tii-1;' now have the data upon Uhicli to fashion legislation later. They argue that the bulk of the leg islation had something or other to ilo with the whole program of lifting Ilie country out of the mire of the de pression, and a survey shows this to be true in all respects. It could be said, therefore, that the orgy of hear- l jn"s in tlie short session was in prepa- j ration for greater things, except th at S the records reveal new hearings al- I ways have beer, held, regardless of I what has transpired before, when the I same legislation is introduced in a Inew session of congress. Whenever a congress ends, all bills jra the house and senate calendars of iisiness die. So the expiration of the ’second session is also the expiration |>t the Seventy-Second congress, and !very bill that was before either house •r in tlie hands of any com m ittee of -either house became null and void. * * * Ko one seems to know w hy there Ililfras so much activity among the com- iittees of the senate and bouse in session. It was apparent a t the Jstart, and became more so as Decem- ier and January passed and February roiled in, that it would be a do-noth ing session. Senators recognized the g situation. From the Republican side came threats and jibes and jests th at the Democrats were blocking anything 3| and everything. From the Democratic siile of tlie senate chamber cam e the same tune with just a slight variation in the cliorns. It was to the effect l| that the Republicans had control, which they did if one counted as Re publicans those who had deserted the Eepuhlican candidate in the 11)32 elec tion for the support of JIr. Roosevelt And so it tras. In tlie house, there v.as a clear Bemocratic majority. But something else was wrong in that body. The plans of the leadership did not alw ays tarry, and if they did, the legislation tos passed only to run into the log jam in the senate. Some of the house Democrats even went so far as to say tWir majority would not have held J* pass some of the legislation put Woiish except for the knowledge th a t the bills would get snowbound in the senate. A Washington correspondent for one • the great London dailies cabled his newspaper that “the American con- Wss seems to be going in all diree- ,'Ons nt the same time.” I quote him eCause there has been no m ore fitting eScription of the situation come to attention. After ail, it seems to me the cir- mstance ought not be so surprising t h a t the short ^ TOUR session has done ONGRESSMAN nothing.

W ash ington observers of all shades of opinion, are coming around to the .conclusion that w hat ever m ay have been his faults, he has had one of the toughest jobs on his bands that ever w as faced by a Presi dent. Especially w as this true during the last tw o years of his adm inistra tion. D uring th at time, lie had a con gress made up of a Dem ocratic house and a senate in which there never w as a m ajority on either side on any question; I uiean, a m ajority th at could be counted in advance, and he w as forced, therefore, to do a lot of trading. T hat Mr. Hoover was able to get his reconstruction program as far under way as he did w as due absolutely to the condition of the country and not through any control which he w as able to exert. As a m atter of fact, the congress for the last ten years has been an “unbroken colt.” The senate during all of th a t tim e has been so close as regards the party division th a t a group of so-called progressives have constantly wielded the balance of pow er. Being independent, those 10 or 12 m en on the Bepublican side and a few less on the ' Dem ocratic side skated back and forth as their ideas dictated. T he result was a terrific casualty of well-laid plans. W hile the senate w as in this con dition, the house w as having its trou bles and would have had more ex cept for the extraordinary personal ity of the late Nicholas Longworth. So it becomes rather obvious that w hatever M r. Hoover may have lacked in political ability or acum en; w hat ever w ere his shortcom ings in state craft, or however m any m istakes he m ade by refusing concessions, the fact still rem ains th a t he held the job as President in a period when few men would have succeeded. For, coupled w ith all of these factors, there w as and is no m easure w ithin the pow,er of the federal governm ent to satisfy all of the diverse elem ents of these tim es. T he depression has made ex perience of bygone years as useless a s the proverbial fifth wheel of the farm wagon.* * - * In view of these facts, therefore, it ought to be a cheering prospect for Mr. Roosevelt to N IC E P R O S P E C T see not ju st a F O R R O O S E V E L T w orking m ajor ity but a big m ajority of his own party in the con gressional m em bership when they get together. The American governm ent alw ays has been a party governm ent. It thus has bad to have a satisfactory m a jority of each house of congress of the sam e party as the President in order to work well. Mr. Roosevelt’s first tw o years In the W hite House are assured of such a working con trol if all who are labelled as Demo crats turn out to be Democrats. On the face of things, It appears th a t Mr. Roosevelt ought to be able to get w hatever he w ants from the extra session and, tbe succeeding ses sions. It is a situation Ideal for ac tion. T here will be so few R epublicans th a t observers here fail to see how they can start any trouble, even with the aid of progressives. . * * * T here have been suggestions floating around to the effect th a t quite a num ber of “t r i a l S E N D S U P T R IA L balloons" h a v e B A L L O O N S b e e n sent up in the congres sional atm osphere by Mr. Boosevelt. W hile there is no method of confir m ation available, there has been one condition existing during the last three m onths th a t seem s to confirm the opin ion th a t the incoming President w as testing out sentim ent. The condition is th is: M r. Roosevelt has kept hands oif insofar as telling leaders of his pc:’4y in congress w hat he w anted to have done in the short session. H e could have m ade his own path w ay easier to travel after becoming President had he confided some of his views to th e D em ocratic leaders of the house and senate. W ith reference to the suggestions of “trial balloons," however, it is pos sible Mr. Roosevelt did tell a few of his friends som e of his idea's. It has b e e n -observed here, for example, that possibly his suggestions w ere respon sible for the consistently busy commit tees. ' By introducing various and sun dry pieces o f legislation and holding hearings on them in committees, it would be possible obviously to gain a perspective of the public attitude. In deed, such a period of experim enta tion would provide the new President w ith a m ost definite-outline of what he could expect in the way of a recep tion for bis plans when they are for m ally offered to his own congress. ©, 1933, W estern N ew spaper U nion, Lesson for February 19 JESU S TEACHING BY PARABLES— T H E GROWTH OF T H E KING.

I. The Parable of tee Candle (vv. 21-25). Tbe W ord which is sown In the par able of the Sower (vv. 1-20) Is not only to bear fruit, but to shine forth in testim ony. This obligation is en forced by a solemn command and- warning. "Take heed w hat ye bear” (v. 24) means that there should not only be attention to w hat is taught, but whole hearted reception of it. II. The Parable of the Growing Grain (v.v. ‘Zli-'Al). Tiiis parable is peculiar to M ark. In the light of the purpose of M ark, it is clear why it should appear here. It is the parable for the servant. In th«, previous parables (vv. 24-25, cf. vv. 1-21), the responsibility nf Ilie hearer is set forth. The respoii»it>ilii.v here is th at which devolves upmi Hte servant who proclaim s the message. 1. The attitude of mind of the gos pel preacher (vv. 26. 27). He should with the utm ost fidelity “cast seed into the ground,” preach the Word, and leave the results with God. The spiritual processes of God’s W ord In the soul of man are shrouded in the deepest m ystery. The seed should “spring and grow up. he knoweth not how” (v. 27). W hen the sowing has been intelligently and faithfully done, the sower should not be burdened with anxiety. He can “sleep and rlBe night and day.” confident that the Al m ighty will take care of the processes and results. 2. The processes of the spiritual life are gradual (v. 28). “F irst the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn In the ear.” W e should not ex pect m aturity of C hristian character a t pnce any mure than the farm er, should expect the crops to m ature at once. The farm er has a tim e of sow ing. of growing, and of. harvest. 3. The consum m ation of the spir itual processes (v.-2»). Though the sowing of the seed be done under dif ficulties and the processes of develop m ent long draw n out, the harvest will surely come. III. The Parable of the M ustard Seed (vv. 30-34). , In this parable the plant with its great branches, called a tree in M at thew 13:.n>2, which springs out of the sm all seed, exhibits the Kingdom In its m ystery form. M atthew 13:11. It shows the condition of things in the world in the interval between C hrist’s going aw ay and his coining again. In this parable three things claim our attention. 1. The unim portant beginning (v. 31). It begins as the least of all seeds but grows to be the greatest among herbs. The parentage and hum ble cir cum stances of .lesus greatly per plexed the people. T hat twelve unlet tered men, m ost of them fishermen, should be selected as his royal ad visors- w as still more amazing. The prophet had said of him that he would be despised, rejected, forsaken, cut off. having nothing. 2. The vigorous grow th (v. 32). From the very beginning of the move m ent inaugurated by CSirist his influ ence has gone forth so that there is no power or influence today in the earth so great as that which calls it self Christian. 3. The lodging capacity. The birds which find lodgment in the branches Jo Jiot represent, as is commonly in terpreted. the children of men who find safety and salvation In the church, because church truth is not now' under consideration. It Is the m ystery of the Kingdom which w as proclaimed as a t hand by John the B aptist This Kingdom passed into abeyance when Jesus w as crucified and it shall come into realization when Jesus comes back to earth again. The believer In C hrist becomes a vital p a rt of h is body and even is necessary to its strength and fruitful, ness. The- bird in the branches is som ething foreign to and independent of the tree. The branches increase the grow th of the tree but birds are Injurious and burdensom e to i t They are predatory—w aiting to pluck off the tender buds or to prey npon the ripened fru it The effect of such lodg ing is evil and blighting to the tree. , 1933, W estern N ew spaper u n io n .

She has to w ear them , you know. You w ill be surprised a t th e taste and judgm ent she w ill show. Anyway, can she learn w ithout practice? And how,” continued the defender, “can you expect her to take an interest in things in the home if you keep telling her it is yours? If you w ere in her place would you not feel alm ost like a homeless intruder? ‘I have noticed th at boys and girls who are constantly rem inded of the fact that the home In which they live belongs to their parents, leave it josc as quickly as they possibly can for- w hat Uiey hope w ill be a home of their own.

Travel Stories Are Good. * W hat happens to a real letter after It gets posted may also interest some of our very youngest readers. W il liam Siegel, a Russian artist, tells a simple story about that in “Around the W orld in a Mailbag.” Bob and Betty’s letter to their father doesn’t reach him in San Francisco. So it is forwarded to China, Russia, France, and even to Egypt. B ut though the various postmen do their Iiest the let ter does not finally reach him until he is back in Kewi York again. The pictures make this bonk especially at- • tractive. >' H ere are just a few of the new books for fairy-tale-strikers. JJany more are to be found in the Iiliraries and bookstores. .Tust exactly the bonk your Bill is looking for is waiting for him there.

One afternoon many years ago a w harf rat on San Francisco Bay wan dered into the Oak land Public Library; -There, opening a bound volume of a children’s mag azine, he stumbled upqn a story. It was a story about a boy like-him self —a r u n a w a y , a g a D g leader of w harf rats, who had certain semi- p ir a tic a l adven tures, but who, aft- M arjorie Barrows « a Jiardf “ ’ learned of better ways of .living his life. Making of Jack London. The dram atic, exciting story awoke in the young reader the uneasy con sciousness of his own wrong actions. He walked out of th at library resolv ing to lead ju st as adventurous a life but one that carried with it a clear conscience. So he joined the Fish Pa trol, cruised ahont the bay, fought poachers, and before long began to w rite stories about his adventures. That boy w as Jack London. The experience of th is famous w riter oc curs, in a rather less dram atic fash ion, in the life of every boy or girl. Careful investigators have discov ered that next to persons, nothing has more influence on children than w hat they read. If a hero they adm ire acts under certain circum stances as they them selves would like to act, they’ll remember i t They Im itate the Hero. And when the tim e comes, they’ll unconsciously be influenced by that hero’s action and try to do likewise. The heroine’s kindness, ambition, steadfastness, loyalty, the hero’s re sourcefulness, quick-wittedness, pains taking qualities, courage, magnaminity, modesty—all these exam ples “sink in” and are em ulated both now and later. One story with hidden character-build ing values is w orth a dozen serm ons from parents or teachers, Let us try to see that this sort of a story, full of plenty of adventure for the boy, full of interesting plots and characters for the girl, is convenient for them to pick up. Jack London isn’t the only one to bei trem endously influenced by the printed word.

The plan has been enlarged over the 1932 plan so as to cover all International Harvester farm ma chines except repair parts and motor trucks. In announcing the new 1933 plan International Harvester says: "W e believe that present crop prices j will show a gradual improvement, and we also believe , that if'the farmer is assured a fair price for his 1933 ; !; crops, he will purchase the implements which he I needs. W e have decided, therefore, to give American agriculture again, as we did in 1932, the assurance of I a fair price for wheat, corn, and cotton on this year’s purchases of equipment from us in so far as 1933 payments therefor are concerned.” I j i 41 [ : Come in and let us explain the details o f the S ; : 1933 Crop "Price Guaranty | j SC.

Then It was ^hi?n to tBose on the platform a t least that e the other details had been carried ouL no H o o v e r a n d c o o l i d g e Sacred Book had been provided for the oath. W ashington’s second inauguration, in Philadel phia, w as less spectacular than the first. W hen John Adams w as inaugurated in the same city in 1797 W ashington was the dom inant figure. He w as retiring from public life, and the people had eyes only for him. M any of them cried. Adams, notoriously vain and jealous, w as much em barrassed. And ju st as Adams’ Presidential ca reer began in disappointm ent, so it ended. ■ He w as so enraged by his defeat in the election that he refused to attend the inauguration of Jef ferson, but left the W hite H ouse and started for M assachusetts early on the morning of In auguration day. Jefferson w as the first President inaugurated a t W ashington. D espite the picturesque tradition of his horseback ride to the Capitol, critical re search discloses that the author of the D eclara tion of Independence did not ride. H e w ent afoot, which w as Dem ocratic enough. The installation of Jam es M adison in 1809 w as attended by much more ceremony than attended the inauguration of Jefferson. The day w as ushered In with salutes of cannon. M adison rode to the Capitol in a richly appointed carriage, escorted by troops of m ilitia. The first inauguration to be held outdoors w as th at of Monroe. Two reasons are assigned for the change: the enorm ous crowd th a t a t tended, from 5,000 to 8,000 (in contrast, 250,- OOO are thought to have attended W ilson’s In 1913, which w as the largest crowd a t an in auguration), and the fa c t th a t the house 'and the senate could hot agree over the distribution of seats in the house, w here it had been cus tom ary to hold the ceremony. John Quincy Adams refused to attend the In auguration of his successor, Andrew Jackson, the tw o men being on the w orst possible term s. Jackson was in AVashington - for tw o weeks be fore his Inauguration, but didn’t go near Adams. Frontiersm en, Indian fighters and thousands of hum ble citizens crowded around the Capitol to see Jackson sw orn in. W ashington had never be held such a horde of visitors. A fter Jackson’s hectic day, Van B uren re stored dignity to the Inauguration and it is re corded th at cham pagne flowed m ost bounteously a t the reception. Jackson and Van Buren rode together from the W hite Hoiise to the Capitol ■in 1837 in a phaeton m ade from the tim bers of the old frigate Constitution. The first elhborate parade cam e w ith W illiam. H enry H arrison after the . colorful and famous “Tippecanoe” campaign. H e rode his w hite charger from the Capitol to the W hite House. H e was preceded by captured flags; Tippecanoe clubs were everyw here; a large log cabin w as carried-on a float in the parade, and, a Penn sylvania. adm irer presented the President w ith a 384 pound fatted calf IIariiMiii K id In-, in Iiiguial addinss—the Iong- es-c on rcftuid—trom the eastiiu portico of the Capitol Standing for an hour w ithout h at or topi oat, he contraitpil a cold and died within a iiiiintIi alli'i Iii- Inn .inn- I■ 11—.nl—nr.

B uchanan’s inauguration was unimposing, except for spectacular floats and a great dinner. The m ost momentous and Impressive inaugural parade th at ever moved through the streets of AVashington w as when Lincoln first took office. Buchanan, an old man in swallow-tailed coat, hobbled along w ith Lincoln to the carriage. Lin coln w as attired in a new black suit and a shin ing high h a t He carried a gold-headed cane. Between double files of cavalry the Presiden tial carriage moved along Pennsylvania avenue while soldiers m arched in front,, and behind. .Blflemeflj !were ,stationed on roofs commanding thle'thoroulhfare and cavalry guarded every apv proach to the Capitol. The journey w as m ade in safety .. Stephen A. Douglas, Lincoln’s life-long rival, held the hat of the new President as he read the inaugural. A t Lincoln’s second inaugural procession there w as shown a model of the M onitor, with its tur re t revolving and its guns firing a t intervals. A battalion of negro soldiers had -an honorable place in the long procession. It had been raining and the day was gloomy. As Lincoln w as about to take the oath, however, the sun burst through the clouds, an omen which he said made his h eart jump. AVith the inauguration of GranL the m ilitary display continued -because the friends of Mrs. S urratt had threatened to attack him. His in auguration drew the biggest crowd th at had yet gathered. M any had to walk the streets of W ash ington all night because they could obtain no lodging. G rant laid aside his cigar for the cere mony, but disappointed the crowd by not w ear ing his uniform. H ayes’ inauguration w as uneventful except for the failure to reach a final decision on who had been elected until M arch 2, but a t Garfield’s the crowd grew to ’ the unheard of proportions of 50,000, m any of whom brought their lunch baskets w ith . them . A yellow dog th at Garfield had once befriended and fed followed behind him In the parade and w as given a home at th e AVhite House. The Cleveland parade was memorable for the large num ber of Tammany braves, fancifully dressed and carrying tomahawks, who marched In it. Benjam in H arrison is the President who read his inaugural address to the glistening tops of red, w hite and blue umbrellas, but with the coming of KooseveIt glam our re-entered. Innum erable cowboys w ere in the parade and used their lariats freely in the crowd. There was also a corps of form er Kough Riders and a group of Indian chiefs. H arvard students gave a long yell for Teddy. The ovation w as one of the greatest and the parade; one of the m ost spec tacular in the history of this quadrennial polit ical carnivaL , The T aft and Wilson Inaugurations are the m ost m em orable ones in recent years, the one for the blizzard, the other for the atm osphere of tension, which had not been equaled since the first installation of Lincoln. The T aft blizzard, as it is called, descended upon AVashington w ithout w arning. The previous day had been warm and foiggy and fair w eather w as promised for M arch 4. B ut in the morning AVashington woke up to find a heavy blanket of snow and m ore falling w ith blinding force. W ilson’s first inaugural w as little more than an outpouring of Democrats to celebrate their first victory since Cleveland, but w as m arked by the presence of suffragists in the parade. H is second, however, taking place in the critical days ju st before the declaration of w ar upon Ger many, w as one of the most notable ever held. H arding's inaugural w as notable for the' tragic passage of the shattered and broken figure of the retiring PresidenL who came , to the Capitol for the last tim e on th at day and w ent from there to his S street home w ithout even glancing a t the W hite ,House as he passed it for the last time. - Coolidge’s inauguration w as more solemn and serions but also m ore devoid of glam our and pomp than any in recent years. The carefree - carnival spirit of H arding’s w as missing except in th e person of Vice President Dawes, who made his now-famou's speech to the senate tell ing them their rules were all wrong.

Instantly Bohart pulled his rifle, sighted care- fuilv and threw up the dirt in front of the bov to attract his attention. W hen Julio pulled up and looked around to see where the attack came from , H o bart waved Iiis hat at him and moved cut from the sheltering fringe of bushes onto the grassy floor of the valley. Roberta by his side. Instantly Julio recognized them. "lou stay where you are, girl,” Ken Hobart commanded. “My other five men will be riding down the hill pretty soon.

The range will be too long for the herders with the sheep to stop us, I think. Jimmy’s in a jackpot and needs help mighty bad, so Julio and I will furnish what we can. A dios!" He galloped away diagonally across the valley, motioning for Jullo to join him, The boy did not hesitate. Ro berta watched them in an agony of apprehension. The herders with the sheep w ere firing at Hobart and Julio, galloping across their front. Ken had stated that the range would be too long for effective fire by men not versed in the science of accurate shooting a t ex treme ranges, but nevertheless the girl saw ,Tuiio’s pinto go down, saw the boy shoot out over the animal’s neck. H e was up instantly and back beside the horse. ''Retting his rifle," Roberta thought hen IIobart had pulled up and w as riding back to Julio, who, in turn, w as running to meet him. There w as not an instant’s pause in the stride of the horse, yet Julio mounted double be hind Hobart, the horse whirled, and the daring pair were on their way again. There, alone at the foot of the hill watching this dram a, R oberta prayed or those men as she had never prayed before; she cried out In agony when hen Hobart’s horse w ent to its knees, rose again—and stood still. Even one to unversed in w arfare as R oberta could realize that the poor brute had been hit and crippled. She saw Ho- t and Julio dism ount, and, kneeling tome twenty feet apartJo p en ,fire on The distant herders as calm ly4 as If shooting at a m ark I And then, over the crest behind her, the five men detailed to follow hen Hobart.

Across the northern flank of the hhUey they raced, the p atter of rifle *re from the herders probably drown- *hg the sound of their thudding ap proach, for they w ere w ithin a hun- ored yards of the nearest men before the latter saw them. One of them fired « Roberta. , . . She thrilled, w ith a told fear and-a wild exaltation, as the “hUet whispered past her head . . . afterw ard she had a faint recollection of a dark, frightened, but defiant face th a t loomed for an instant in front of her before she rode the m an down. Pistol shots . . . then a backw ard look. Behind her the five rode w ith upraised pistols, flourishing them at her, yelling a fierce approbation of h er leadership. The sheep, In panic, fled wildly, leap ing over each other, bleating, leaving a cloud of grayish w hite dust behind them . R oberta rode into the cloud— rode through the fringe of stragglers, knocking them down, leaping over and among them. H er horse, plunging and swerving, w as striving, with common sense rath er uncommon in a horse, to avoid the woolly bodies under his feet, and R oberta w as forced to ride as she had never ridden before. Pistols popped behind her. . . . She w as clear of the sheep. . . . H er dull little rid ing academ y spurs prodded her mount’s flanks; the quirt rose and fell. . . . She caught the gleam of sunshine as the last level rays of the dying day w ere reflected on a pool. Among Some rocks beyond the pool three figures moved, the crackle of fire grew loud e r; she could discern the sharp, spite ful reverberation of it now. W here w as the corral? Don Jaim e was there, wounded, dying perhaps. . . . She saw it—a circle of w eather beaten boards, nailed so close together th at th e fence appeared like a wall. Straight a t it she drove her mount, realizing vaguely as she did so that It w as a hurdle a t least a foot , higher, than she had ever faced in sport. She saw her horse’s ears flicker, felt his stride slacken a little ; then his head shot forw ard and his ears cam e up straight. G oodhorsel H e w a sn o t going to refuse the jum p! She felt him gather him self for the leap, and took a firm grip on the reins. “Alley oop I” she cried. W hile In m idair she saw Don Jaim e off on the right flank, standing in the bed of a wagon, firing over the fence; then she w as over and inside the cor ral w ith him. “Jim m y!” she shouted. H e turned, staring a t her amazed. Then, he jerked the bolt of his Spring field and yelled: “Down I F la t I” She rode up to the wagon, slipped- off, pulled the rifle from the scabbard and untied the cartridge belt from her pommel. Then,, w ith a slap on her horse’s rum p, she sent him trotting across th e corraL And then Don Jaim e acted. He leaped down a t her, his pow erful arm ' sw ept her Dackward and off balance; she slid down his body gently to the ground and he threw him self beside her. “Oh, my G— d, sw eetheart, why did you come?” he alm ost moaned. “Because I love you, Jaim e Miguel Higuenes. You are in dangqr and I couldn't stay aw ay, I’ll help you, Jim my. If you have to die I—w ant you to know before th at happens—th at life w ithout you—w ill be desolate-r” H e crooned to her In Spanish, his hot eyes devouring her, his grim y per spiring hands caressing her cheek. “I alw ays knew you were, a thorough bred,” he gulped finally. “Lie here and do not move. This is a private fight and you haven’t been invited. I’ve got to keep moving. Tve run miles from one side of this corral to the other, firing through knotholes and gaps in the boards. If I stay still they’ll locate me and I can’t afford th at—now I” H e rolled aw ay like a tumbleweed. A bullet crashed through the fence and struck w here he had been-lying a second before. And then R oberta proved herself a woman. She fainted. C H A P T E R X IV She cam e to lying in Don Jaim e’s arm s in the dry grass beside the wa ter-hole. She looked up a t him w ithout understanding, then dewed her eyes again. “Well, Jimmy,” she m urm ured pres ently. “We’re back In the sheep business again,” he assured her solemnly. A silence. T hen: “Any casualties, Jim m y?" “Yes. Three dead horses and two wounded and about a dozen sheep with broken backs and legs. It seem s you rode over them . Ken H obart's pinked,- but nothing w orse than w hat he’s been used to. Adolfo de Haro, one of my riders, Is dead, and Lam bert, O'Grady, and M artinez Trujillo are badly hit, but I do not think they will die. Julio O rtiz has lost a little finger..

Dingle got here first; ran his chuck outfit into the old . branding Corral to cam p fo r th e night and turned his m ules loose there.’ Then he occupied th e rocks beyond this w ater-hole and -waited to see w hat m ight turn up be fore dark. I turned up—unexpectedly —rode wide around the herders, ap proached the corral from the rear and had opened the gate and entered be fore either side discovered I was trapped. They couldn’t see me clearly, but through the chinks in the corral boarding they could see something moving against the lig h t At th at they couldn’t be sure th at som ething w as me, my horse, or their mules, and they didn’t w ant to hit the mules, so they w ere careful, “It w as close work and after I'd moved around a lot and had located -nil the knot-holes and wide chinks In the boards I m ade them keep their heads down. T hen. when the firing, started out on the flat, and they saw K en’s men, led by you, m aking a pis tol charge on the men with the sheep, Dingle got cold feet. You rode through quite a barrage, sw eetheart, but once you’d topped the corral they figured I had reinforcem ents, so they ran for their horses and rode south. T hat is, some of them did. I climbed upon the wagon seat and fanned their re a r; as they fled down the south side of the valley they bumped into Ken and Julio, who emptied two saddles each. Do you know, darling, that you have a pistol bullet through the muscles of your back, rather well on the right side? Nothing fatal, but you’ll sleep on your left side for a month I” ‘T m a little fool,” R oberta m ur m ured weakly. “Yes, but a gallant little fool. You have some of your late Dncle Tom’s ferocity and courage in you, Bobby. Oh yes, old Tom alw ays preferred odds and good shelter in combat, but he would stand up to it when he had to. H e couldn’t be bluffed off this range and he forced m e to m ake good." “A re you hurt, Jimmy?" “Not a scratch.” She raised her left arm and curled it around his neck; he lowered his face until his cheek touched hers. “You’re such a terrible'm an,” she whis pered. “Oh, such a terrible man I” “B ut you love me, ju st the sam e?” “Yes, but I wouldn’t have told you —I’d have died first It’s all due to K en H obart He told me—" “H ush, sw eetheart. H e’s confessed. H e told you a few of the m ost wonder ful lies on record, and when he found- you’d been hit he cried like a baby. Swore th at If you died he’d commit suicide—provided I didn’t kill him first I” H e lifted her to a sitting posi tion. “There’s old Cupid H obart sit ting over yonder. Look a t him. H e's still blubbering.” “K en!” R oberta called weakly. The ex-ranger got up and limped painfully over to her, knelt and took her hand. “You’re a grand liar,” she murm ured, “and a grand fighter, and a grand friend—and now I’m going to decorate you, Ken H obart—on the field of battle.” “K iss her, fool,” Don Jaim e roared. “And you can kiss her again the day we’re m arried. T hat’s the privilege of the best man, but after that, believe you me, partner, she’s not going to give aw ay any more sam pies to hard- boiler old w addies like you.” “Oh, my God, forgive me,” Ken sobbed childishly, and brushed her pale cheek w ith his tobacco-stained lips. 1 “On the lips, man,” Don Jaiine com manded. “You don’t know good kiss ing w hen it’s offered to you.” “I been chewin’ tobacco,” the victim protested. “I don’t care,” Roberta assured him. “Jim m y chews it, too." So the em barrassed w retch obeyed orders, and R oberta fainted - again. A “Alley Oop!” She Cried. “Don Jaim e, this tim e it’s your fault,” H obart - almost- m oaned.. “Fan her and mop her face w ith this w et bandanna," Don Jaim e1 command ed. H e w ent to the corral and searched In the chuck wagon for the tin box containing the sm all field first- aid k it be suspected m ight be there.' It was, so be returned to the girl, cut her clothing aw ay from the wound and applied first add in a singularly work m anlike manner. Thereafter be a t tended, to his wounded m en and when th a t-ta s k w as done he caught the chuck wagon m ules In the corral, har nessed and hitched, them, spread out on tlie floor of the wagon box the bed ding rolls he found there and loaded his casualties into the wagon. “Horae, Jam es,” he called cheerily to an im aginary chauffeur, climbed up onto the seat and gathered the reins. He peered down between his legs at Roberta’s face upturned to him from the wagon bed. “You’d have to live a few lifetimes in Dobbs Ferry, W estchester county, New York, before you’d get your teeth into life as deeply as you have in the past hour and a half,” he assured her cheerfully. “Whose spunky old sweet heart are you?" “Youse.” said Roberta wearily. “Giddap,” yelled Don Jaim e, and flicked the rum ps of the lenders with his long whip. Gently he' eased the mules into their collars and rolled away up the valley into a long draw that wound between the hills and eventually led them out to where the deserted m otorcar waited. Here he transferred his wounded — Lam bert O’Grady. and M artinez Trujillo on the rear seat, with Ken H obart on the front seat. Lastly he lifted Roberta up into Hobart’s arms.' after which he braked the chuck wagon, unhitched the mules and tethered them to the wheels. “Guess they can stand a night of watchful waiting,” he declared, and climbed in back of the wheel. “And maybe I wasn’t a sm art boy when I put Mrs. Ganby on the payroll per manently. N othing-like having a good trained nurse around in an emergency like this. Hold on, everybody!" He switched on tlie lights and tooled the car carefully down through the sage to the Los Algodones road, after which they made fast tim e to the ranch. H ere one of the hands took the car and departed for Los Algo- dones to bring back the only two doc tors there, while Don .Tai me aided Mrs. Ganby to make her patients comfort able. About noon the next day Jaim e Miguel Higuenes cam e into Roberta’s room and sat down on her bed. “Caraveo and his men have just got back safely.” he informed her. “Not a m an of that bandit gang got back across the river, so I venture to say thls..has been a lesson to them. I im-. agine the Rancho Yalle Verde will be regarded in beyond-the-Border circles as a good place to keep away from hereafter. How’s the future Mrs. Hig uenes feeling now.” “Not very chipper, Jimmy. How do you feel?” “Guilty as a sheep-killing dog. Still every cloud has a silver lining. Din gle’s dead and I imagine he died in testate. At any rate I have a sus picion nobody is going to come around and claim a ten per cent interest in my lambs. And I have a telegram from your Dncle Bill. It seems that when the news of the battle got to Los Algodones last niglit, via the man I sent after the doctors, the editor of the local palladium of liberty, the Los Algodones H erald, considered it of suf ficient im portance to put on the wire to the El Paso office of .the United Press. So it was in the El Paso pa pers this morning, and your Uncle Bill read it there." “Uncle Bill? Why, w hat was he do ing in El Paso?” “En -route to VaIIe Verde, my dear. I’d wired the old gentleman a' hearty invitation to come down and visit us, and he has accepted and was on his way.” Thus Jaim e Miguel Higuenes —the liar! However, he comforted him self with the thought that it was only a w hite lie and was to be pre ferred to violating his word of honor to Crooked Bill not to reveal to ' his niece the news th at only two days pre vious he had been in Los Algodones, plotting against their peace and- hap piness. “You’re such a dear. Jimmy. So thoughtful. D ear Uncle Bill. I know he’s missed me. Does he know I’m hurt?” “Yes, the papers carried the story. I’ve w ired him on the train to save his tears until our wedding day.” “Are we engaged, Jim m y? I can’t rem em ber that you’ve ever asked me to m arry you.” “Oh, didn’t I, sw eetheart?” “Never.” H e rubbed his tanned chin and his lazy eyes roved over her whimsically. “I suppose I was afraid I might speak out of my turn, but of course when you cam e stam peding into that corral yesterday and broke the glad news to me, I couldn’t, as a man of honor; pre tend I didn't understand you. So I rather took it for granted.” He bent low over her and sw ept her cheeks with his eager lips. “Still interested in those bum m er lambs, boll-weevil and Irrigation, brown babies and eholo men and women, beat, dust and purple lights on the buttes a t dawn and sunset, darling?” She nodded. “I can be a good part ner, Jimmy. I never had any respon sibilities—and now I w ant so badly to share yours—always. How are your wounded men?” "Taking an interest in life. I sent them over a quart of thirty-year-old Bourbon whisky a friend gave me re cently. Mrs. Ganby is still weeping "A re We Engaged, Jimmy?” w ith joy over our engagement, and Robbie is jealous as a collie dog. H e has an idea that when we’re m arried he’ll have to leave the ranch." “I wouldn’t even have a ground squirrel leave that ranch, Jimmy.” “Then- we’ll- keep Robbie and his ma on the payroll.” "Does Uncle Bill know of our en gagem ent?” Don Jaim e produced the telegram ’and read: “I never figured on you taking over my principal responsibility bnt now th at yon insist on being reckless take a tip from one who knows stop Do not spoil her stop I did that long ago stop You are as welcome in our fam ily as the silence that follows a Con gressional oration “Sheepishly yours “UNCLE BILL” “Why does he sign him self ’sheep ishly yours,’ Jimmy dear?” “Some far-fetched allusion to the sheep that brought yon here, Bobby.

H a n d sth a t bad known toil and would alw ays know it, the hands Fbat build empires, bands that, when folded a t last In the peace that would mean their parting, would be kissed by lowly people and sprin kled w ith their tears. “It will be forever and ever, Jim my,” she whispered, “and Fm so happy —and grateful.” “The Higuenes men keep their women,” he assured her gravely. She thought of Glenn H ackett “Poor dear,” she m urm ured absently. . "H e never had a chance,” Don Jaim e assured her. with a flash of that prescience, that clairvoyancy, that would alw ays make him. for Roberta, a new, puzzling, yet wholly under standable human being and a joy for ever. Yes, he would be the sam e al ways, yet alw ays new, alw ays chal lenging her interest, alw ays holding i t Of him (the girl thought) It m ight be said that age could not w ither nor custom stale his infinite variety. “I’ll get my guitar and sing'you a little Spanish love song my grand m other taught me,” he suggested.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Economy in Government Gets a Boost—Senate Ousts Sergeant at Arms Barry for Traducing It—Roosevelt Invites Governors to Parley. By EDWARD W. PICKARD Sen. Bratton FC O N O M t w as given a real boost by the senate when it passed the treasury-post office bill, for It inserted into the m easure provisions giving the incoming PresidentoI- " most dictatorial pow- •. er in reorganizing tlie jL structure of the fed- R ' jk-i eral government, co- ‘ f- ordinating, consolidat- '-T / lnS or reducing the * number of agencies and elim inating over- k**T8$ lapping and duplica tion of duties, “in or der to further reduce expenditures and in crease efficiency in g o v e r n m e n t.” Tiie m easure withholds authority to abolish or transfer an executive departm ent in its entirety, though Senator K orris urged that this privilege also be given the Gliief Executive. His proposal was rejected because senators feared it might lead to the combining of the arm y and navy into one departm ent of national defense, as has often been suggested. T hebillasapproved by the senate grants the new President much greater latitude than was asked by President Hoover for the sam e pur pose. The executive orders will not become effective until sixty days after being subm itted to congress unless congress itself provides by law for an earlier effective date. Besides this grant of power to reor ganize the federal establishm ent the senate moved toward further econ omies by adopting an am endm ent of fered by Senator Sam G. Bratton of New Mexico, one of the leading Demo crats in the m atter of savings. It re quires all departm ent heads to cut their expenditures for 1934 by 5 per cent,'though this must be done with out cutting wages—this being insisted upon by Senator Costigan of Colorado. Mr. Bratton estim ated th at his plan would result in the saving of about $140,000,000 in the cost of operating the government during the next fiscal year. O ther economy measures at: tached to the bill. It w as said, would realize some 20 millions of additional savings. One of these includes the en listed personnel of the army, navy and m arine corps in the present 8 % per cent salary cut affecting all other fed eral employees. In the house all kinds of attem pts to economize were beaten during con sideration of supply bills. The rep resentatives even declined, by an over whelming vote, to reduce their own salaries to $7,500 or §5.000, opponents of the proposal arguing that they could not afford the cut and that low ering the pay would make the house a “rich m an's club” and make it im possible for a poor man to enter con gress. The proponents of the reduc tion were denounced as demagogues. WITH grave form ality the senate and house met together In the house cham ber and watched their offi cial tellers extract from a mahogany chest the reports of state electors on last fall’s election. The reading clerk loudly announced the state totals, and when these had been set down on nig tally sheets and added up, the con gress was solemnly informed that Franklin D. Roosevelt and John N. Gar ner bad been elected President and Vice President of the United States by a vote of 472 against 59 for Hoover and Curtis. SENATORS, despite their rules, can find ways to say some mighty mean things about one another; but an out sider mustn’t cast aspersions on their integrity. D a v id S. Barry, who has been sergeant a t arm s of the . senate for 14 years, has found this out and has lost his job. The seventy-three- year-old official wrote an a r t i c l e for Al Smith’s New Outlook, the opening paragraph of which w as: “Contrary, perhaps, to the popular belief, there are not many crooks in congress—that is, out and out grafters, or those who are willing to be such; there are not many sen ators or representatives ' who sell their votes for money, and it is pretty well known who those few a re ; but there are many demagogues of the kind th at will vote for legislation sole ly because they think that It will help their political and social fortunes.” Indignant senators were sw ift to call B arry to account: Sitting as a trial court, they heard him adm it he was unable to prove that there were bribe takers and grafters in congress; . and they refused fo consider bis pleas that Senator G lass had said about as much concerning the fight, against the M cFadden banking bill, and that in reality bis article w as meant to de fend the reputation of congress de spite its inept wording.. By a vote of 53 to 17 the senate deprived B arry of bis post on the ground that be bat! traduced. that body and could' not prove his charge. D. S. Barry. In the words of Senator David Reed of Pennsylvania, the senate “made a holy show of itself.” Barry did not lack defenders, the w arm est of these being Senator O tis Glenn of Illinois and Senator M. M. Logan of Kentucky. Mr. Glenn, being a lame duck, was not afraid to say w hat be thought, and he had a lot of hot thoughts on the m atter. He pointed out that what B arry had w ritten was but one small voice in a chorus of criticism of the senate, and continued: “I cannot distinguish very m aterial ly between attacking a body of this kind, as bus been done in the present instance, nnd the privilege which is exercised nearly every day in commit- tee room;: of the senate of browbeat ing a witness, accusing him, attacking him as be sits there, called in response to a summons. “I do not distinguish between the attacks made upon this body and the attacks m ade in this body day aftei day by distinguished members of this body, attacking, abusing, condemning, blackening people's na.nes and reputa tions, knowing that the next morning upon the front pages of the responsi ble newspapers of this country those charges, unsustained, will be broadcast to the world.” The debate was lively and rather vituperative, and was immensely en joyed by the occupants of the galleries. One of -bese w as heard to quote: “The lady doth protest too much, me- thinks.” WHILE the President-Elect w as cruising about the Caribbesin try ing to catch fish the am ateur cabinet builders kept right on working. Late gossip w as that W il liam EL Woodin of New York would be secretary of com merce ; H enry L. Stev-. . ens of N orth Carolina, form er commander of the American Legion, secretary of w ar, and Archibald McNeil-- ‘of Connecticut oc.O. Max. G ardner .:o f JJorfb Carolina secretary of the navy. Jesse I. Straus, New Tork m erchant also was put In the running for the commerce portfolio. More definite than these rum ors w as the report th at Jesse H. Jones, em inent Democrat and business m an of Houston, Texas, would be made head of the Reconstruction Fi nance corporation. He wonld succeed Atlee Pomerene, whose appointm ent as chairm an by President Hoover was blocked, with all other nominations, In the senate. Mr. Roosevelt will rely greatly on the Reconstruction Finance corporation and its vast credit in car rying out his plans in the “new deal” and would receive strong and able support from Mr. Jones as its chair man. Jesse H. Jones PLENTY of expert advice on ways of pulling the nation out of tbe slougb of despond is to be offered soon. F irst the senate finance commit tee invited more than half a hundred of the nation's leading men in all lines to present their views on the causes of the economic depression and the needed legislative remedies, and those views presumably are now being for m ulated. Then President-Elect Roose velt sent to the governors of the 48 states invitations to meet him in the W hite House on M arch 6 to discuss means of solving national problems In which the governments of the states and the nation have a common vital interest. In his letter Mr. Roosevelt said: “It is my thought th at we should discuss for our m utual benefit certain subjects, such as: “ (a) Conflicting taxation by federal and state governm ents; “ Cb) Federal aid for unemployment relief; “ (c) M ortgage foreclosures, especial ly on farm lands, and “ Id )' B etter land use by afforesta tion. elimination of marginal agricul- tural land, flood prevention, etc.; “(e) Reorganization and consolida tion of local government to decrease tax costs.” It Is believed all or nearly all of the governors will accept Mr. Roose velt’s Invitation gladly. All but ten of them are Democrats and might be expected to be In W ashington for the inaugural ceremonies. \T 7 IT H considerable Democratic VV support, the government’s pro gram for aid to the unemployed was greatly broadened. It provides, among other things, for an additional 8300.- 000,000 direct, relief loans to states, and in W ashington there w as'a belief that it had a good chance of passage during the present session. The bill as drafted'also would liberalize the law under which the R. F. C. makes loans for self-liquidating construction proj ects; and it makes provision for loans to private corporations for the devel opment of community farm ing and ocean a ir transportation if such proj ects are self-liquidating. Th a t flurry over :he activities of- VViIIiaiii C. Bullitt, who iva:: report ed In Europe as being a secret repre sentative of !,Ir. Roosevelt sent over to deal with ,the gov ernm ents of nations that owe w ar debts to the United States, probably has blown over for good. Bullitt, who w as a Stflte ds- partm ent representa tive under Woodrow W ils o n , also was t h o u g h t by some French officials to be an em issary of Col. Edward M. House. He visited London, Paris and other capitals and conferred w ith • various high personages, and our State departm ent called on Ambassador* Edge for infori iation. The am bassa dor replied th at Bullitt was acting on his own respons'bility as a w riter in terested in ■ foreign affairs and was representing no one in the United States. Mr. Edge, it is understood, reported th at this is only one of many sim ilar incidents. Ever since Mr. Roosevelt’s nomination, the embassy has had re ports of a iong succesion of such “em- issaries.” W. C. Bullitt VARIOUS plans for the regeneration of the Republican party have been discussed, and one already has been started. This is the organization of the National Republican league, with Vice President Charles C urtis a t its bead and headquarters in W ashington. Three vice chairmen have been named —Senators Felix H ebert of Rhode Is land and Daniel O. H astings of Dela w are and form er Representative John Q. Tilson of Connecticut. The make-up of the league appears to be strictly regular Republican. The new organization announced by John A. Campbell of W hite Plains, N. I., who will be its director, is designed; to carry on a vigorous cam paign for a.i comeback not only in the 1036 Presi dential election but in next year's con gressional races aiso. It is professed-* Iy neither for nor against the interests of any one candidate. The senate Republican organization seem s determ ined to continue In good standing in the party caucus the insur gents who supported Roosevelt last fall. Senator C harles L. M cNary of. Oregon, the probable new Republican leader of the senate, declared th at a proposal to read out of the party Sen ators George W. N orris of Nebraska; R obert M. La FolIette of Wisconsin, G iram Johnson of California, and Bronson (.Cutting of New Mexico, had - “not a chance in the world” to suc ceed. Suggestions w ere heard recently th at Secretary of the. Treasury Mills would 'b e made chiSirtoan:7gf ^the - ReK publican national 6« said he would not accept the place1. “I’ve had a lot of politics in the last 25 years and I don't intend, to step out of here into the chairm anship of any political committee,” M ills said. P REAT BRITAIN’S cabinet in three '- J sessions gave final approval to the B ritish policy for negotiations w ith Mr. Roosevelt In the debt conference to be tield in W ashington. Of course the cabinet’s conclusions w ere n o t. m ade public, but it w as understood A m bassador Sir Ronald Lindsay would bring back a plan providing for a lump sum paym ent of between $1,250,- 000,000 and $2,000,000,000 as settle m ent for the entire’debt of about $11,-: 000,000,000 which the European na tions oSve the United States. This, the debtor nations think, would be in accord with their own Lansanne agree ment on German reparations. Representative Rainey of Illinois de clared: “The United States will not accept any such slash.” and opinion in, congressional circles upheld this view.:. Moreover, Mr. , Roosevelt’s plan of* dealing with each nation separately will give the British small opportu nity to put forw ard a proposal for all of them. GERMANY’S new governm ent un der Chancellor H itler is not to have smooth sailing by any means and may be upset a t the coming elections. The Socialists and Communists were trying strenuously to lay aside their differences nnd join in the fisht against the Nazis, and it seemed likely they wonld succeed In this. Vice Chancellor Von Papen, armed with a decree signed by President Von Hindenberg, assum ed the. prem iership of Prussia, dissolved the diet of that state and ordered new elections on M arch 5. Prem ier Braun and the other old Prussian m inisters were summarily ousted. The government also issued a new set of severe laws curtailing the right of assembly and of free speech and gagging the press. PREM IER DALADIER postponed the downfall of his new French governm ent for a tim e by tem porarily abandoning the attem pt to balance the budget. The cabinet rejected a pro posal to reduce the pay of employees of the state; and approved measures which would slightly . increase the taxes on gasoline and bank checks. AU told. It approved measured de signed to provide $232,000,000, half of which would be in new taxes and half resulting from economies in civil ex penditures. This m easure will be op-; erative until an other: budget’ project* can be drafted. .■ RECENT deaths of note were those of Dr. Lawrence F.

TOP IC The Power ot Jesus to Help.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—The Power of Jesus in the World Today. I. Jesus Calms the Storm (4:35-41). 1. Crossing the sea (vv. 35, 36).' W eary with the teaching of the day, Jesus proposed that the3' take a ship to, the other side of the sea, doubtless to escape the crush of the multitude. 2. O vertaken by a storm (v. 37). Vicdent storm s are of frequent occur rence on the Sea of Galilee. Even though Jesus was in the boat with the disciples they were overtaken by a storm . It is not God’s will that we should escape the storm s, but those who have C hrist in their boat are safe in any storm . 3. Jesus asleep In the storm -tossed boat (v. 38).) In the m idst of the turbulent elem ents he was resting in sleep. He who made the sea could well lie down and sleep, though the storm violently raged. The believer who has committeii his life, his tim e and eternity to the will of God should he able to be at peace in the m idst of all disturbances. 4. Tlie terrified disciples (v. 38). In their minds disaster and death aw ait ed them. They were not only terri fied but chided Jesus for sleeping w hile all were in such great danger. 5. C hrist’s rebuke (vv. 39. 40). a.

This m an w as in n des perate condition. He w as so fierce itliat travelers could not safely pass Ithat way. He wore no clothes (T.uke ■ 8:27). No chains w ere strong enougli to hold him and no one w as able to tam e him. In the night tim e his hid eous cries could be heard while he vented his rage by cutting him self with stones. Demon possession is com mon today. As the coming of the Lord draw eth ntgli these th in g s-Will Increase (I Tim. 4:1). 2. W hat the demon knew about C hrist (vv. 5-h). He knew that C hrist w as the Son of Ood and th at he had come to destroy tbe devil and his works. Among the. demons there Is no doubt as to C hrist’s deity and the coming judgm ent, facts which many theologians nnd preachers' say they do not believe. 3. C hrist’s pow er to deliver from th e devil (vv. 10-13). H e cast out the demon from the m an (v. 8 ). The de mons quailed before Christ, not daring to dispute his power, and begged to be perm itted to enter the swine. As soon as the Lord gave them permission, they entered the swine and hurled them to destruction. In this destruc tion of the swine is a rebuke to the Jew s for indulging In a forbidden traffic.. 4. T he effect upon the people of the city (w . 14-17). The keepers of the swine fled to the city and reported w hat had occurred. This m iracle brought the people out. hut when they realized their hogs had been destroyed they besought C hrist to leave their coasts. This fs Indeed a sad picture. fi. The man who w as healed was sent home to testify (w . 18-20). No doubt it would have been safe and pleasant to abide with Jesus, but the m an’s friends needed his testim ony. The best w itness for Christ is one who has been saved by him. The best place to begin th at testim ony is a) home w here one Is best known.

KEPT FRESH IN THE WELDED HUMIDOR PACK Copyright, 1933, B. J. Beynoldft Tobacco Company CJIMCLS 7 Such magic, however, seldom holds the audience. Your taste finally tells you the truth. The cigarette flavor thatnever stales, never varies, never loses its fresh ap peal, comes from mild, ripe, fragrant,. more expensive tobaccos...blended to bring out the full, round flavor of each type of leaf.

W e m ust not dery our children! C ouldtherebe a greater call to to the service of youth in N orth Ca rolina than a call to the General As sembly of North Carolina to effect all the economies embodied in the plan of the pedagogues to stretch the state school term to eight months and then to go a step further and cut the school term by two months? Our educators are shedding croco dile tears over the youth of the land, lest youth be dem ed of certain educational fol de rols; and then they blindly proceed to pile up the costs of its system not only for the backs of. our youths, but for the backs of their children yet unborn. For The Bill Will Be Passed On To Youth Now Growing To Manhocd And Womanhood. The general Assembly of 1931 stormed at by Josephus Daniels and the pedagogs. held to the idea of a state supported six months school term, made it a law and then ran a- way without providing revenues for it. The result is a deficit it the State Treasury of $12 000,000 to $15,000,- 000 which the general Assembly of 1933 is expected to cover. This Gen eral Assembly is not only expected to find new sources of revenue to take care of the deficit created to find new sources of revenue to provide for a six of eight months school term . If 'T heE ducatorsH aveT heirW ay, Be Sure Youth Will Pay. And Pay, And Pay. Onlyyesterdav am ansaid to me; “ My family is fond of steaks. • Back in 1928-29 I provided my fam ily with steak at least three times a week. To-day they get steak not oftener than once a week. In 1928-29 I bought the choicest porterhouse and sirloin steaks. To-day I buy the cheaper cuts of rump or round. And if business generally in North Caro lina shqws no improvement within the next few months my family, will eat no steak at all,” His case is typi cal. And He Is The State. W e have a fine school system in North Caro- rolina. W e like it; even educational experts m ust learn that simple les son. A reasonable call to The Service Of Youth in North Carolina would be to lop two months of the present school system for the next bi ennium to enable the State to get out of debt instead of piling up more debts on an already practically bankrupt State for coming generation to pay. One third of the population .of N orth Carolina to day is dependent upon public or private charity', the the rail roads, once our heaviest tax payers, are busted; our farmers can't pay their back taxes; the mer chants of North Carolina are living largely on their stocks; bank deposits are steadlv falling. For our child ren’s sake w e would lop six to( eight million a y< ar off our school bill for the next two years, first by effect ing every possible economy in ad m inistrative expense, and, second, by cutting the school term. "Then we* would be doing som ething bv way of Service Of Youth.—Elizabeth City Independent. These Eggs Two Too Many For Judge Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 8 ,—En- route to his home in Jacksonville Beach, form er Jocksonville munici pal Judge W . W . Anderson suddenly! realized he had forgotten his w ifeV request for some turkey eggs to place under a hen tha twas setting. A little near home, a friends with whom Anderson paused to pass the tim e of day exhibited some buzzard eggs, and Anderson, thinking to play a joke on Mrs. Anderson took two of the eggs. He gave them to her when he ar rived home, ; The following evening Anderson assumed an unsmiling mien and ask- e I his wife: “ Did you set the hen?” “ No, I didn’t,” Mrs.. Andersoh re- plied. “There were only two eggs | and I didn’t they were worth bother- i in g about, so Ig a v e them to you for breakfast.” Consider the little pin—its fl t v head never sees the. point. !

After ' your oil becomes thin and worn, 3 quarts of worn-out oil plus I quart of new oil equals 4 quarts of used oil. The only way to free your motor from the dangers of thin, lifeless oil, is to have the crankcase drained, flushed, and filled with dean, fiill-bodied Tiolene. Tests prove that Tiolene has greater heat-resistance —keeps its lubricating body long after other oils have thinned out and broken down. But to get the full econ omy of Tiolene lubricatidn you must use it undiluted— get a crank-case full. Drive in..; let us test your oil to make sure it is safe.
