Ifflinniniiiij FAIR Tht Evening Newspaper of Kansas FOUR CENTS i HOME EDITION TOPEKA, KANSAS, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 16, 1921 TEN PAGES PHONE SERVICE AGAIN IN ORDER THRUUUT CUT Trouble Shooters Work All Night to ProTlde Service. Twelre Thousand Telephones Connected This Morning. A. J. CONWAY THE HERO Did Splendid Work on Inside of Big Switchboard. "Gas" Huebener Is First "Hello Girl" on Job. "Trouble shooters" for the South western Bell Telephone company as tonished officials of the company, who were In Topeka last night, by having telephone service practically com pletely restored In Topeka shortly aft er the opening of business houses this morning. The local telephone service was paralyzed at 1:45 o'clock Wednesday afternoon when a short circuit burned out the entire switchboard. The city was "phoneless" until this morning. H. D. Livers, plant superintendent for the state, was in charge of the work. Immediately after the fire, of ficials asked him how long it would take to get service restored. "1 told them twenty hours, and I didn't believe myself that it could be done," Livers said today. "The boys beat my own guess on it." By 10:30 o'clock this morning every phone In the city, with the exception of the rural lines, was in working order. 12,000 Phones Connected. Twelve thousand local phones were connected again at 6:30 o'clock this morning, and the job of calling the switchboard operators to their duty began. The girls reported for work and filled the stations on the board as rapidly as they could be called. The rural lines will not be in action until late tonight, probably. Toll stations were established at various points in the city Wednesday afternoon, and long distance calls sent thru them. The private phone ex change of the Payne Taxi-cab service was turned over to the police and fire departments during the night. A. J. Conway Is the Hero. "The man who deserves the credit for Topeka not being cut out of tele phone service for several days, is A. J. Conway," Livers declared today. -Corc-4 way la the hero of the occasion at the telephone exchange. He was the first man to arrive on the scene after the fire alarm had been turned in, and When Livers arrived, was inside the switchboard with a chemical fire ex tinguisher, fighting the flames at so close range that his arms and one of his legs we-e painfully burned. Con way himself extinguished the fire, sticking to his wot-:, inside the blazing board, and then attacked, with the other men. the task of restoring the service. He was sent to a doctor to have his burns dressed, and ordered to return home, but was back at the scene of the trouble as soon as his Injuries had been looked after. r If it had" not been for the quick thinking and the heroic action of Con- Way, Topeka would be without 'phones ior days to come. Worked AH Night. All Wednesday night trouble men worked in relays of three, cutting away the burned wires and splicing in new wires. There was space for but three men at a time, and they Worked at top speed until it was time to fall back and let other men take their places. At 6 o'clock this morning the traf fic department was informed that 4, S00 "multiples" were ready for the operators. First "Hello Girl" Is Man. The first "hello girl" on the switch board this morning was "Gus" Hue bener, transmission protection engi neer, who attempted to handle all of the fifty-four positions at once. Huebener found a good deal of fun In the situation. Subscribers gasped when his husky voice answered their call with "Number, please," and some of them hung up, believing that they had got in on, a test line. Others hardly believed that he was the "hello girl" he claimed to be. The spirit of the repair men and the operators was highly praised by Livers today. "About 11 o'clock Wednesday night we began to think about men for working today, and to check off the names of the men we wanted to send home so that they could report this morning. About one in five of the men we ordered home was willing to go. And some of them went out in tho garage and slept in the cars there, waiting for a call if they were need ed," Livers said. y Cut Out Section of Switchboard. While the servicj has been resumed In Topeka, the burned section of the switchboard has been cut out, and the girls who worked at that section can not handle calls. This means a reduction In the speed' of the service, and the company of ficials have asked that the public for the next few days, limit their calls to really important business. All con nections can be made, but there are not available the same number of positions and operators to handle the volume of business. Original Cause Still Unknown. No one knows the cause of the short circuit which started the fire. Almost anything might have done it, H. D. Livers, plant superintendent, said to day, and there was no indication in the tangled mass of wires as to where the first are occurred, or what caused it. Standard Takes Over K. C. Refinery.

Cannot Get Workers Enough to Supply Demand. Hutchinson, Kan., June 16. Wheat farmers of southwestern Kansas today were engaged In a mad scramble for hands to harvest the bumper -crop. Labor shortage also menaced harvest ing of wheat in Oklahoma counties, the Texas Panhandle and other north ern Texas counties. With urgent calls for help flooding the state employment office from Kansas wheat belt counties, farmers are resorting to former tactics of bidding for hands on the railroad sta tion platforms as they alight from In coming trains. The harvest season Is practically two weeks earlier than usual and the harvest hand demand was about five hundred In excess of supply in Reno county. With the Oklahoma cutting in full swing, virtually no relief has been arrived from the "floater army which moves northward. Calls for more men have been re ceived here from Texas, and Oklahoma farmers. The $3 day wage agreed upon by farmers has been .discarded in many instances where $4 a day is being paid and as high as 6 a day is Deing diq. According to early reports today, the labor shortage affected the follow ing localities: Kiowa county, Kansas. 800 men; Lyon county. BO men: within 100-mile radius of Wichita, 1,000 men. A call for 1,000 men, coming from Tyrone, Okla., had not been entirely filled. Reports indicate the shortage general in Texas and Oklahoma, some counties being directly affected. TO BACK STILLMAN Society Leaders Help Banker in Divorce Suit. AI1 Evidence to Prove Little Guy Not His Son. Poughkeepsle, N. Y., June 1. When hearings were resumed today in the Stillman divorce case, additional "back stairs" testimony was expected to be introduced, purporting to indi cate that Fred Beauvais. French Canadian guide, is the father of Guy Stillman, 2-year-old 'son of Mrs. James A. Stillman. Four more "surprise" witnesses were produced by Stillman's counsel shortly before noon recess today. An aged man and three middle-aged women, obviously French-Canadians, arrived in the automobile of Cornelius J. Sullivan, the banker's chief attor ney, accompanied by a private detec tive. Thev were expected to. testify regarding Mrs. Stillman's alleged rela tions with Beauvais on the Stillman farm near Three. Rivers, Quebec. Most of the witnesses yesterday, when the hearings were resumed be fore Referee Gleason after a lapse of several weeks, were former servants of the Stillman household. The burden of their testimony was that Stillman and his wife were living apart from January to April. 118. Guy was born in November of that year. More ser vants were expected to testify today. Mrs. Percy A. Rockefeller, sister of Stillman, who offered similar testi mony, was a "surprise witness." There were unconfirmed reports that other witnesses prominent in society mrght testify for the former president of the National City bank. When the hearings are resumed June 28 after adjournment tomorrow, Stillman will take the stand for cross examination. This was agreed upon by his attorneys last night. He first testified at the initial hearings of the case. LEGISLATOR MAY RESIGN W. W. Hairvey. of Ashland, W1U Ac cept Federal Appointment. Speaker W. W. Harvey of Ashland may resign as a member of the legis lature as soon as he is appointed first assistant United States district attor ney. Harvey, who is in Topeka today, indicated to friends that he would ac cept the post under Al F. Williams of Columbus. He conferred with Gover nor Allen today and is reported to have discussed his resignation as well as possibilities of a special session. Harvey was speaker of the 1921 house. It Is probable that his appoint ment to federal service would require immediate resignation as a legislator. This situation would call for election of a new speaker in event of a special session.

HE DIDN'T APPEAR Executive Warrant Has Been Issued for Stradford. Negro Is Charged With Inciting Tulsa Race Riot. Governor Allen this afternoon Issued an executive warrant for J. B. Strad ford, alleged race riot instigator, who did not appear to oppose extradition asked by Governor Robertson of Okla homa. Reports from Independence, where Stradford was arrested in con nection with the recent race riots, in dicate the negro is a fugitive from Justice. Stradford gave bond for appearance following his arrest by Montgomery county officials. That was June 10. Telephone messages from Indepen- j dence this morning were to the effect that he had not been seen since that time. Ifing Wait in Governor's Office, While Judge C. W. Smith, executive clerk, was collecting information in- oictatine tnat straaiora naa cominueu his hasty travels, a large delegation of Topeka negroes including two law yers who appeared to represent Strad ford waited in the governor's office for the hearing to begin. Attorney General Freeling and Prosecutor Seavers, of Tulsa, were also present to represent the state of Oklahoma in the application for return of the ne gro hotel proprietor. Failure or straaiora to appear u opposition to the request for his re turn to Oklahoma led promptly to is suance of an executive warrant for his arrest anywhere in Kansas. It is also probable that failure to report prompt ly to the Montgomery county court will result in forfeiture of his bond. The first intimation that Stradford was in Kansas came to the governors office several days after the Tulsa riot. A telegram from Montgomery county negroes protested against his removal from Kansas. Later Governor Robert son asked Governor Allen for a writ returning the negro for prosecution. Stradford gave notice that he would resist extradition. He provided bond, but disappeared from Independence as suddenly as he left Tulsa. Attorneys Thomas and Guy. negroes, appeared to represent Stradford. but j left the governor's office with the dele- L' gation of Topeka r egroes when their client did not appear. Several Topekans, who have driven i motor cars for years and who have never changed tires; were forced last evening to undergo their Initiation into the mysteries of punctures and blowouts. "I changed a tire all right," one motorist Baid today, "but I brought home a lot of extra bolts and nuts that I couldn't find places for." Clever husbands; who usually yield to the temptation to play another rcund on the golf links and leave the job of offering telephone apologies to "the wife" to. the steward, were con fronted last evening with the duty of speeding home in time for dinner or running the risk of a domestic up heaval. The everting "dates" that were made previous to 1:45 o'clock Wed nesday afternoon were kept without any confusion but the "fellers about town," who make it a point to slip over an. "eleventh hour" engagement, wandered the streets. Topekans" who couldn't remember just what time evening trains de parted, spent many hours languishing around the railway stations awaiting their "rattlers." And it was a grand and glorious afternoon and evening to passenger agents who, under ordinary conditions, sit for hours with their ears glued to the "phones.

No one wanted 10 bnnw nn vhat date and on what col umn and page was there ah item about the election of officers of the- Order nt Oom-nah-nah. No one asked about the flood Situation in lireai Bend. No one inquired concerning tne name, of the newspaper in -ira-ia-ia, South Dakota. The State Journal al ways is anxious to please Its inquiring readers, but even at that, if the truth must be exposed, there is such a thing as a change. The father of a Topeka family, which includes three grown daughters and a grown son, declared this morn ing that dinner Wednesday night was the first meal eaten for some years which was not interrupted by at least a dozen phone .calls. Bill Kescher, on his way home shortly after midnight from an ath letic session at the Press club Wednes day night, asserted that in spite of the fact that the phone service was "out." he had been called the regulation num ber of times during the evening "And I never had more than a dinky little pair," Bill said. There was a young man named Malone, He called up his girl on the 'phone; But no answer came From tbe beautiful dame. So h spent the whole evening alone. There were a lot of tired business men who walked home or rode street cars Wednesday evening. They were accustomed to 'phone for their car when ready to leave the office. Wed nesday night they closed their ottices and decided between a walk or street car ride. Dead "phone wires had their effect oh the men at play on the golf courses. There was an anxiety about things up town which somehow crept in the dis cussion on the links. Many of the sweet stick shooters missed their afternoon game, tho, because of the necessity of reorganizing business to meet conditions which had grown out of the new emergency. One fond mother stayed awake most of the night waiting for her beloved twelve-year-old to return from a party. He had decided to apend the niehfwith a friend. The faA that the telephones were not workingdidn't mean much to him, perhaps but it kept mother awake. The 'phone service break played a cruel trick on the banks. Usually the banks" clerks have a busy hair nour h.fnrit clnsine time notifying custo mers who have thoughtlessly or otherwise overdrawn their bank ac counts. Wednesday there was nothing to do except send the checks back thru the clearing house or boost the overdraft showing and pay tnem. Emmett George, private secretary to the governor, was looking- for the re turn of his boss from Atlanta. Oa. The phones woulda't work and he could get no information. Then he tried to use the long distance wires. But Hhe voice with a smile in lt" wasn't at the other end of the line. So the governor's secretary gave op In despair and went for a game of golf. Any "number of people went to bed with a feeling of apprehension seldom realized in a modern American city. The Topekan was cut off from the police, the fire department, the doc tor, neighbors and friends. Scores of residents of the city parked their cars in front, of their residence, prepared Phony Paragraphs Just a Few of the Little Things That Happened When Topeka Spent an Afternoon and Night Without Local Telephone Service. for any of the many possible night emergencies. The Associated Press faced a world of trouble because of the fire. The news service supplies "poney" service to a number of Kansas dailies from Topeka. The leased wire reports, picked up from The State Journal of fice, are boiled down and read to the smaller town A. P. papers. The ponies" depend entirely on the tele phone. When the wire service broke down, Topeka not only found herself cut-off from neighbors and associates. nut, tne outlying papers faced a news famine. The service was restored for today's news readings. The inter-office telephone system in the Santa Fe general offices was hot interrupted for more than a few min utes when the local switchboard was burned out Wednesday. Current from the plant in the office building was applied, and the offices were kept in communication with each other. A private line to Kansas City was also in operation, independent of the Bell line. The break in telephone service was a hard jolt for state departments. All or the state house wires reach the long distance switchboards thru the regular city switches. In conseauence a number of state officials were forced to rely on telegraph service in com municating with outside parties re garding; state affairs. Cafes and restaurants suffered. "But the fine came at ,an hour when the public eating houses were most pre pared. Their day's shopping had been done when the wire service ceased. This morning marketing was carried on as usual by phone. Topeka thought mostly of he own trouble and inconvenience. The shock of sudden realization that much of the city s business is conducted by tele phone left little opportunity to con sider the rural neighbors. They were even greater sufferers. Truck garden ers and dairymen were due for a real troible flay. They were removed from the. markets and the paved street, new? and gossip. In consequence the fire, left the rural subscribers in a numb, half comprehensive realization of the real worth of a wire to the ear of neighbors, friends and business as sociates in the big outside -world. It was a great night for the young sters who were ambitious and alert to opportunity. When the .phone bells ceased jingling there -was an -instant deraatmd for messenger service. Today there arej many quick wtttetf-Topeka youngsters who. are numerous quar ters, half- dollars and even dollars richer because of the conversational paralysis which hit Topeka. The lack of service made it diffi cult to handle teamster- work in the city Wednesday afternoon.' All trans fer companies -require .drivers to call their offices Immediately after deliv eries for the purpose of facilitating "pick-ups" In certain territories. Without telephones it was necessary for the drivers to double back to head quarters. The citizens of Topeka at least be came thoroly acquainted with the lo cation of fire alarm boxe The old timers who paddled Kansas avenue before the days of telephones were in their glory. Many a grand child last night sat on the front porch listening to the stories of long ago. The wireless' outfits in town were enjqying the telephone drouth. Ama teur operators were up late into the night showing the neighbors the needlessness of wires and poles and central offices and switchboards and girls 'neverything. There was a general rush to the phones today by persons who made needless calls "Just to see if it wa3 working." Small boyes about town today are ripging up their own telephone bvs tems. With waxed string and tin cans they are talking from barn to barn, carage to garage and tree top to tree top. i Unmentionable words were used by the proprietor of a big garage, who is accustomed to command unlimited motor car service, when he had car touble on West Tenth steet Wednes day evening. He was forced to ride on a street car to find help for his situation. Mothes and babies wee gatheed in large numbers at the free baby clinic conducted by the Public Health Nurs ing association of Topeka at Tecum seh Wednesday afternoon- Mothers, babies and nurses waited restlessly, but no doctor appeared. Miss Frances Hoy and Miss Margaret Mitchener, nurses in charge, tried in vain to tele phone to Topeka for a physician. They finally drove the six miles to Topeka and returned with a physician. In order to offset as much as pos sible the lack of telephone nervlce. the afternoon force of -the police depart ment worked all night with the regu lar night force. The night force also worked until about 10 o'clock this morning. The phones at police head-, quarters were connected with the Roy Payne Taxlcab company's telephone system, which was a great aid to the officers. A street car ran off the V"ack m Oakland Wednesday evening. No tele phones being available word had to b sent back on the next car for the work car to come out. i MOTOR BUS HITS STONE WALL One Soldier Killed. Two Dying and Eleven Badly Hurt at Camp Lewis.

FEAR HOUSE BILL Senate Agrees to Vote' Packer Control Today. on Some Kind of Regulation Act Certain of Passage. Washington, June 16. The senate is under agreement to vote on the packer control bill late today. Some kind of bill will pass, it ap peared certain as the final day's de bate began. But whether it will be the house bill empowering the secre tary of agriculture to regulate the meat packing industry, or the senate bill, entrusting such regulation to a commissioner under the secretary of agriculture, appeared doubtful. Even Senator Norris, part author of the senate measure, was not over confident today of acceptance of his plan as a substitute for that worked ont by the house. What Norris and other advocates of drastic packer control fear is that the house bill will be forced thru by the votes of those who, while wishing to appear in the light of favoring regula tory legislation for great public utili ties, in reality do not want any effec tive regulation of the packers or any other industry. The house bill, in the opinion of senators, would create the semblance of regulation and control without their substance. It is capable of so many different constructions and is so vague and indefinite they assert that it amounts to nothing binding. In the senate bill, the packers are forbidden to: Engage in discrimina tory or unfair practices: apportion business or business territory among themselves; agree to fix or control prices; engage in business other than meat packing; to conspire or agree to defeat the purposes of federal regula tion as outlined in the pending bill: own or control stockyards within two years from passage of the bill.

Profiteering on the part of the bakers ot the na tion's bread was charged by Senator 'Capper. Republican, of Kansas, in a speech at last night's session of the senate during consideration of the packers' regulation bill. f "With a maximum cash decline in the price of wheat of nearly 38 per cent in the year ending May 15 and a maximum decline in the price of flour of 40 per cent," said Capper, "the sise of the crust the bakers of ten of the leading cities of the country hand the public varies remarkably from a measley decrease of but 6 per cent in "Kew York to a .maximum reduction of cnly 21 per cent in Boston. "But I note that in New Tork, where .the decline in the price of bread is least, the reduction in the price of flour is greater. Boston, far removed from the wheat beUt -is the city show ing the largest decline in the price of bread. Even out in tne 'Wneal coun try itself the bakers are still exacting high prices. In Kansas City the price of wheat has declined 87. 7' per cent and of flour 29 per cent, but, accord ing to the latest government reports, the price of bread has .declined' only 13 per cent. "Out on the farms the price of wheat is back almost to pre-war levels, but the five-cent loaf of pre-war times is only a memory." JEW MANHATTAN" I. E. CHTRCH.

THERE ARE MANY WAYS a baby has of expressing any' pain or irregularity or digression from its normal condition of health and happiness. A short 'sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole body, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor iis the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria. Castoria has been used for baby's ailments for over 30 years and has mer ited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other 'baby's medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this Castoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cure-' all for every member of the family.

There Is such a thing as saying too much on any subject, and 'the "grand-stand" talker sooner or later becomes a bore. The truth is always welcomed, and the truth reiterated and confirmed is more than welcome it reaches your innermost soul. Fletcher's Castoria is all its advertising has claimed for it. Scrutinized ly the microscope of public opinion and used f or.over thirty years it stands without a peer in the hearts of thoughtful, cautious, discerning Mothers. And once used, mother love there is ne substitute for mother love wfll scorn to try a "substitute" or a "just-as-good".

Uaskln, Director, Washing ton, L. C. Many have wondered why this country agreed to make a gift of $25. 000,000 to Colombia. An explanation may lie In the statement that, "the extent to which a number of large American oil companies have secured oil acreage In Colombia and other South American countries. Is surpris ing, and it is the feeling among those best Informed that Colombia will soon take its place as one of the great oil producing areas in the world. The oil deposits In Colombia are both ei- tensive and of high quality. They are found In formations which show a greater resemblance to American oil f fields than to the oil areas developed In Mexico, where the steady encroach i ments of fait water have, and are, les sening the output of some of the most Important oil developments. One American company, with extremely largo holdings in Colombia, believes that Colombia is tha natural future oil reserve for the United States, and that tha production and, distribution of oiieTrom Colombia has many ad vantages over other oil developments. Colombia is nearer to the refineries of the Atlantic seaboard than the Mexico fields, is closer to the markets in Europe-, as well as to the refineries on the Pacific coast and to tha Ori ental market. Colombia is, therefone, a strategic center for the production and distribution of oil." One may be .excused, however, for asking why the oil people did not pay the $25,000,000 instead of 'raiding the treasury. But since they were able to get away with it perhaps that is a sufficient answer. The people of Japan are urging their government to join in an inter national disarmament agreement, just the same as is being done in this Country and in England. "And when this wish is so universal among the people of these leading nations," says the Northwestern of Oghkosh, "it cer tainly does seem that it should be an easy matter to arrange an official agreement." But the editor forgets the politicians, the makers of arms and munitions and the builders of bat tleships. It is reported that the question as to whether the United' States should pay the reparations commission for the German shipping seized by this coun try at the outbreak of the war is to come before that body for determina tion. But whatever decision is reached, it can have no binding effect upon this country. The United States has no agreement to abide by what the reparations commission may do. Neither is it likely that congress will ever authorize payment to the com mission or to anybody else for the Ger man ships captured at the beginning of the war. Practically every one of the allied nations has enriched itself at the expense of Germany thru repa rations or indemnities, but the United States gets nothing from either source. It is true that we paid Spain $20,000,000 for the Philippines when tney were already ours. So congress might take it into its head to pay Germany for her ships, but not any body else. Financiers and various eastern pub lications continue to prate of the so called consumers' strike". The truth la the consumers did not strike; they simply ran short of a supply of money sufficient to allow them to pay the prices asked by dealers. When the dealers discovered this they reduced their prices, buying was resumed and still continues. "A thing the people should keep in mind is that they are still paying for tha great war, and will continue to do bo for a number of years to come," says a newspaper paragrapher. There Is little chance that they will forget it. bat why is it that somebody always is .Vying to take the joy out of life? SVhy not counsel the people to think f something pleasant? MEN WHO CARRY ON. Recently events have tended ta smooth away some of the wrinkles from the brow of the farmer. In the winter he was deeply pessimistic. But the spring sun and tha warm- rains caused the new crops to appear. Thesa crops, it lias been established by a careful survey, wilt be raised and harvested at a cost of only 40 per cent of last year's total. All present indication are for a large yield of grain, which if raised at a lower cost and sold at 4t fair price will exercise a profound Influence in restoring nor mal business. The past twelve to fifteen months have witnessed sweeping price de clines in every direction, but nowhere has deflation bean so drastic as for the products of the soli. Just how the farmer has borne the brunt of defla tion is shAvn by the latest index num ber of wholesale prices compiled by the bureau of labor statistics. This discloses that farm products are only 15 per cent above the levels of 1913. On the other hand clothing ia 86 per cent Higher; fuel and lighting 99 per cent; metals, 38 per cent; building materials, 103 per' cent; house fur nishings, 174, per cent, and miscella neous articles 54 per cent. AJ1 com modities are .54 per cent higher than In 1913. This means that for what the farmer has to sell he is"getting pre war prices or a trifle more, but for what he buys' he must pay from 38 to 174 per cent more than 1913 prices, if he purchase at wholesale. But while the farmer sells at wholesale, the bulk of his buying is done at re tail, which makes the score still greater against him. The result is being reflected, says The Iron Trade Keview, ty mail order houses. Implement, stove and automo bile companies, and in fact all indus tries. Since the rural population com prises nearly one-half of the total of the country, it constitutes the greatest single consuming group. Inevitably anything which affects the ability of this class to buy will lie reflected in all ramifications of business. "Fortunately," continues the Re view, "rifts are appearing in the clouds and this is a good omen for all trade. Business leaders recognize that one of the pressing necessities of the mo ment is the restoration of a parity in values between manufactured prod ucts and the agricultural industry. As soon as transportation and wage costs will permit, lower steel an3 other industrial commodity prices are probable. The trend of all manufac tured goods is downward. In the meantime the recent rise of wheat in dicates that the common level is to be found by some appreciation in val ues of farm products as well as fur ther declines in prices of manufac tured goods." Dorothy Dix Talks BT DOBOIHI DIX World's Highest Paid Woman Writer. Acquiring a Sense of Humor I. We are in the way of thinking that a sense of humor comes by nature, as Xiogberry thought that knowing how to read and write did, and that one was no more responsible for not hav ing a laugh that was hung on a hair trigger and went off at a touch, than we are for not being born with a clas sical profile and naturally curly hair. Of course, to arrive on this sad old earth with a protuberant funnybone, is to be the darling of the gods, for to have an intuitive sense of what some one has called "the sweet absurdity of things," is to have a magic that takes the sting out of -misfortune, and puts an extra kick into the cocktail of joy. Nevertheless, if Fate has denied you this precious gift, you need not de spair. You can acquire a sens of humor. You can Burbank the smile of politeness into the rip-roaring laugh of hilarity. You don t believe it? You know too many glum, grouchy people whose lips would crack if they tried to laugh. You know too many crape hangers who never read anything but Russian novels, and the deaths and accidents in the newspapers, and who drink black tea, and believe that the Judg ment Day is at hand. You know too many literal men and women, upon whose heads a surgical operation would have to be performed before you could insert a joke into their poor old beans, and you are convinced that people have to be born with a sense of humor, just as they are born with tenor voices. You can't get that way yourseir. That is where we have made a mis take. That's why there are so many depressed and depressing, whiny, com plainy, stolid, heavy people in the world. We have believed that if any one clldn t naturally see the funny side of things, or catch the point of a Joke. that he or she was like the helplessly blind or deaf, and all that we could do was to endure the poor, afflicted crea ture with what patience we could We never dreamed of such a thing as trying to lift tha curs from the vic tim; Yet it can be done, as I am witness. before and after the fact. Among my friends is a superwoman who is wise as she is witty, and who is equally rilled with imagination and hard, practical, common sense. She married a widower who had a lovely and intel ligent little 'daughter 9 years old, whose one defect was that she had absolutely no sense of humor. She was as tone deaf to lauehter as 'Trilby was to music. Witticisms made no more dent upon her under standing than a snowball would upon armor plate. When people about her would roar over a funny story, she would stare at them in round-eyed wonder, her keen little mind searching thru the sea of talk to try to find the clue to the mystery of what amused her elders. Humorous exaggeration was simply a lie to her. Everything was bald, up-and-down literalness to her. (Copyright, 192U, by toe Woeetei Syndicate, Evening Story Sah'ation by Matrimony. BY MARTHA M'C. WILLIAMS. "Coming? There's the last bell." Zlllah called to her cousin Frances from the topmost step. Still Sunday sunlght mad her glow like a rose newly open. Frances, noting it, sighed famtly she craved beauty of all things no transfigurings "of light or shadow could ever make her other than hopelessly plain. At least to her own eyes her mirror did not py:ture her best moments. Few, indeed, ever saw them they came when she was wrapped in the peace of green pas-, tures, w.th the gleam of still waters gemming the distance. Something awoke then that made her as one with the good world, part and parcel of its harmony and rythm. "Do come! It makes me fidgety sitting alone- in our big pew," Zillah entreated. Fiances rose slowly." "If you can wait two minutes," she said, speaking almost loathly. Yet in less time she was beside Zillah, trig, trim, severe, a perfect foil for the other figure, a concrete of roses, ribbons and girlish charm. Two men were already seated in their pew tall, young, well set up, well looking in every way. They stood differentially outside for the two g.rls to seat themselves, and later went thru the ritual with a reverent ease that bespoke habit. Also they listened alertly, catching every point of the rector s discourse. Frances was unac countably glad it was one of his best, briefish but meaty thruout. and breathing the vital witness- of the spirit. The church was full. After the benediction the strangers halted uncertainly. Then one turned to Frances, with "Please, do you think we may speak with the" rector? We came especially to hearhim. It may be our only chance. My father was a good friend of his all thru the course at Princeton "Then he must have known my father, too. Did you ever hear of Gordon Trabue?" Zillah interrupted. Rather! I'm his namesake," the stranger said, holding out a card, which read: "Gordon Trabue Whit- sett." "And I ve grown up on tradi tions of the triumvirate," he added. "To think of finding part of it in just this way." "My middle name begins with w. Zillah said laughing. "I'd surely be a John Whitsett if I were the man I ought to be." "Don't say that! Nature knew best," young Whitsett said, looking down at her. Then Brances and the other stranger being duly known, the four of them sought the vestry, where the rector rejoiced over them almost as if they had been brands from tho Durnlng. After a bit Zillah declared: "Everybody goes home with me to din ner. Yes you, too!" shaking -her finger at Rector Fitch. "Frances won't mind going by for my Aunt Zillah. your good a:. gel and mine. I daren't trust you but of my sight. Daddy will be home from that tire some contention and gladder than anybody to see you. He'd disinherit me. 1 m sure, if I let his namesake escape," and, smiling at Billy Brent, "he has always a double welcome for a friend of his friend." "Frances, take that lad along with you. I know my Zillah she is set in her ways if you hav a to use force do it gently, please." The rector laughed. Frances frowned in spirit only. She did not mind doing Zillah's bidding, nor envy her the ease with which she carried things before her. But it was hard to have to make conversation with some one new and strange. She naa no small talk whatever, not even of the weather. "The- rector tro.". on several 'corns of your mind,' Billy declared as they went down the vestry steps. "How do VOU know?" Frarw asked, startled. "Your eyes tell tales," Billy retorted. "They are dangerously truthful." "How?" Frances asked. "By turning away friends, even when they do not make enemies," was the reply "I don't know how votl c n Irnnm she said, a perplexed line drawing be tween tier orows. "Honest Injun don't yoO resent my being sent along?" from Billy. She nodded. "Yes I knew we should bore each other to no purpose, and that is such waste of living." "Let's not do it then. Instead, tell each either all about ourselves. That is always interesting to the party of the first part, however the last may far?," Billy said, standing still a sec- UJ1U. "I doubt if we are worth telling," Frances said dispassionately. "At least I m not, I'm just what I look some body born tp help fill up tha census. All I really know is I was born and I shall die. I mean nothing to anybody, good or bad. Sometimes I feel as .tho Id rather be hated, real hard, than have the whole world tepid "Bravo! Now we're getting down to cases." Billy said, taking her hand masterfully. "I've been looking this long time for a properly educated woman one who knows how 'To pray to God, to love man. to knit and ,And n" that I have found her.

A stout and ruddy gentleman at ease n PIazz got actually pale as he shook his namesake's hand. After a machine gun fire of greetings and in quiries, he was roaring thru long dis tance: "Jack Whitsett, you scoundrel, come right on to- the love faot a word from you this dosen years .wi uuj or yours is doing his best to steal my onlv e-iri.

Then to the rector: "The pater is strong for 'pure religion and undefiled' don't you dare pull any progressive stuff at the read ing desk tonight, if you care to keep his friendship." "I'm glad he's eomlne- need some body to speak -for me in the worst way," Billy Brent broke in, flushing a little. "I'm a stransrer, nobody's son nor grandson In this neck of the woods.

A head shake answered him, but after a minute she said: "It's this way, you see I get out his ser mon for him the same as his clean bands. If I didn't he'd forget and read the same things so often the vestry would have the trouble of call ing a new man." "Salvation by matrimony, eh. boys," Mr. Trabue aaid with a fine fatherly intonation, his eyes upon the young men. "True doctrine! Go to it! You won't repent. A good wife is above rubies." "We're happy converts, sir," Whit sett said audaciously. "Sinoe you keep the best in stock, tell us the price." "Price? Oh, a real man," came the answer. "Now let's feed, other things can wait."

"For the sum of $3,500 a year," runs a news item, "Miss Stewart will try to do for the youth of the country of both sexes between legal working age1 and twenty-one what their mothers and fathers really ought to do for them." Having no children of our own, we--readily can believe that Miss Stewart, who, assumedly, also is child less, can be trusted better to look after the children than their fathers and mothers. But the point we make An the con nection is that tha job is too big for one frail woman. Looking after all of the children in this country ,is no sinecure. Miss Stewart should have an assistant. A Professor Speaks. Sir In re Public Sentiment vs. The Bootlegger, perhaps a professor of psychology can explain the scientific principles underlying the following fact about law enforcement, but any person 'who, has bad, experience in law enforcement can tell you that it is a fact: When the number of offend ers who are caught and, tried is only a very small proportion of the offend ers at large and when this fact is com mon knowledge among jurymen a conviction is very difficult. For in stance, if mob violence is done and only four members of the mob are apprehended, conviction by a jury is rare, unless, perhaps, the persons caught are proved to be leaders. Again, if in school many members of a class have been cribbing but only two are singled out for, punishment, popular sentiment will be against the teacher. This fact does not mean that- the public does not wish to see the offense condemned and the practice stopped. It means something else probably a rebellion against the unequal visitation of the law.- j As long as we have thousands of bootleggers, punishment of individuals will be difficult until the publio be gins to classify bootleggers into dif ferent degrees or kinds of law breakers. Then the-worst class, in its estimation, will begin to get theirs, and each In turn', aeeordimr to his ranking, the others will sooner or later get tnelrs. But it will be a long process, because the public reasons slowly. A..R. W. Superficially, A. R. W. reasons well, but the thing is deeper, much deeper, than he has dug. It once fell to our lot to enforce-a prohibitory liquor law in a considerable community which, taking it by and large, was very high class. Prohibition was grounded in the public consciousness. For -forty years it had been generally accepted as a wise statutory restriction. No body who wa anybody talked against proniDition. no many it was more than a wise statutory restriction; it was a fetich. There was no class or rank among the bootleggers. The il licit liquor Industry was exclusively conducted ny disreputable and unde sirable citizens who were known as such. But it was almost impossible to Induce a reputable citizen to testify against a Bootlegger and exceedingly difficult to secure a jury that would convict. We ran the bootleggers ragged. Some of them still are nantinir from the exertion. One way or another, we secured the conviction of a consider able number; we made it a verv ex pensiva. recreation for the others. But no citizen In that community now re members that we did so. If he should remember it he wouldn't care. The professors will have to try again. A. R. W. has opened a trench.

Life- was daily, I was going to say hourly, growing more difficult for me lt was not the big things of life that made it so; it was seemingly, at times, the matters of no real importance that caused me the most, misery. I was frightened for myself. What did the I future hold for me? What further depths of unhappiness? Margaret Dalton, my husband s sis ter, hated me. Yet I must live in the same house with her, give up my de sires to please her even in the most trivial things. Keith had kept his promise to. Mar garet. My little Pom had been sent away. The only concession I could win was that it should ba sent to nis mother's home, where tha old house keeper would look after it for me. "When mother comes back you can run down and stay a week Jr so," he said, trying to comfort me. But as his mother would not return for months it was rather cold comfort. It was almost laughable how quick ly Margaret recovered after sha had had her way? But she made it extra cause for finding fault with me by saying: "You see, Vera, if you had let the dog go at once -when you found me getting so nervous I should have been spared several very unpleasant days. It is strange how a selfish person can upset an entire household. I don't mind so much for myself, but when I am ill, Keith and the children are so unhappy, and the servants become disorganized." I made no reply to this lengthy ti rade. I was becoming almost afraid to answer her for fear I Would say something she would misconstrue, or which she would repeat to Keith with embellishments. I grieved terribly for my little Pom. He had been so cunning, so affection ate. Gloria cuddled in my arms one day soon after he had been sent to the country and said: I think mother was Just as mean as could be to send your doggie away." I reprimanded her for speaking so of her mother, yet in my heart I echoed every word with other adjec tives added. Keith saw I was grieved and tried to make it up to me by being unusu ally kind and generous for some days afterward. But as usual Margaret in sisted he do for her all he had done for me, and he soon drifted back into the same old way of consulting her as to what he should buy me or allow me to have. At this time Keith was much away from home. Altho I was often terribly unhappy, I really tried to keep most of the unpleasant things that hap pened from him. But occasionally I felt so bitter, so abused, that I could not keep still and would complain bit terly of Margaret's actions. It invari ably brought on a quarrel, at best o disagreement. And altho I felt it was driving Keith from me, I could not control myself at times. I so longed for sympathy, for understanding from him. i The more unhappy I was, the more I loved Keith. It sounds paradoxical, but it. was true. Had it not been for Erma Longstreet I don't know how I could diave endured my Ufa air 'times. But when I was blue and disheartened I often went to her for an hour or two, and her sweet, sane outlook upon life and things helped me for the time being., Mrs. Grant, too, continued to be nice to me. Of course wa had not been to the club since Father Sander son passed away, altho I played oc casionally with Erma and Jim, .just to keep myself from forgetting what I had learned. "Margaret will be sura to bar me out if she can when she commences to go- out again," I told "them. Our mourning had been another bone of contention between us. Black was terribly unbecoming to me. dull black. But Margaret insisted that t wear it. unrelieved by any touches of white. "I can't understand your objecting, she said acidly when I said that a daughter-in-law was not expected to be as funereally clad as an own daugh ter. "Most girls in your position would be glad to show respect to their husband's father." "It is no lack of respect, Margaret," I returned. "And because you think it the right thing to do I am willing to wear black in the street. But it is horribly unbecoming to me; it makes me look lifeless and sallow. I hate to look so badly before Keith, especially now when he ia home so little." "It is of Keith I am thinking. He would feel dreadfully, did ha hear you talk. I wear black, why shouldn't you I said no more. What was the use? That black was becoming to her, Mar garet knew: she also knew it was not to me. This discussion had been brought on because I had put on a simple white dress for dinner one night when I expected Keith. He did not come, which, Margaret said was fortunate.

Tha Kan sas Children's Home society moved into the place today on completion of the remodeling of the house, which has been in progress since April 1. Tha old home of the society was at 117 Clay street. Little of the faded elegance of the early society days in Topeka remains about the big house. The hand etched colored glass windows that came from Tiffany's remain, and are a great cur iosity to the children, with the etch ing on the windows suggesting the use of the various rooms, such as fruit and fowls in the dining room, balls and billiard cues la another room, stars and moon in the sleeping rooms, etc But new hardwood floors, much white painted woodwork, scoured win-" dows, re-papered walls and newly cut doors and windows have given an airy, sanitary atmosphere that is ideal for the purpose for which the house Is to be used.

WHY DO WE NEED 'EM? Aggie College Prof., After Twelve Years of Labor, Has Invented a New Kind of Grasshopper. Manhattan, Kan.. June 1$. After overseeing the living of more than 400,000 grasshoppers, covering forty eight generations of the insect, a new variety of hopper has been propagated, according to Dr. R. K. Nabours, head of the zoology department at the Kan sas' State Agriculture college, who has conducted the experimentation. The new variety has been liberated on the plains of Texas to test their hardihood. Doctor xsabours states that the new species is the result of twelve years of experimentation carried on at the agricultural college in an effort to test and discover certain laws of heredity. The-laws that govern the handing down of the marks and splotches of color on the back of the' grasshopper, and the development of new ones are the same as the laws that govern cer tain characteristics in cows, pigs and sheep, according to Doctor Nabours. The same laws govern many of the hereditary characteristics of "the hu man being, such as color blindness, deafness- and susceptibility to vsrrious diseases, such as tuberculosis, color of eyes, and susceptibility to drunken ness and criminality, Doctor Nabours stated. Tlnftrtf Vahnitra AaHmst,, tVtnt If would require sixteen centuries to ob serve the same developments in the human species as he has discovered by using the grasshopper.

Jeffries, like Alexander, reached the point where there were no more worlds to conquer. For six "There's More Real Satisfaction" say s the Good Judge W-B CUT is a long fine RIGHT !rWofr 2473 years after winning; the heavyweight championship, the Catifornia boiler maker met every boxer with nerve enough to challenge him. and mauled them all severely. He disliked the In convenience of forever keeping In trim however, and announced his In tention of retiring from the ring In 1905, bestowing his title upon Marvin Hart. The present was made after Hart had thrashed Jack Root in twelve rounds at Reno, Nev. With Hart the championship waa an easy come, easy go bit of property. He promptly lost it on February Zt. 10S, to Tommy Burns, a Canadian. In a little of die Real To bacco Chew, than you ever: got out of the ordinary kind..

In that time he successfully defended his title against Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, whom he defeated in twenty rounds, and Bill Squires of Australia, who stood up only two minutes and eight seconds. During all of this time a big strap ping negro, John Arthur Johnson, had been knocking pugilistic people right and left and, in his off moments, en deavoring to get a crack at the cham pion. But the champion always had some txcO.se. Johnson's manager trailed Burns around the United States and to "England, but could not get him to meet "the former cotton Jammer from Galveston. Undaunted, he kept on the trail of Burns and finally cor nered him in Australia,: where a matsCh with "L'il Artha" was arranged. Methodists, 7; Presbyterians, 5. Eldorado, June IS.

FlOM the back of a sheep to the back of a man, .wool passes through dozens of pro cesses and machines, some of which were made possible, and all of which were shortened, by some product of petroleum. So delicate is the adjustment of this machinery that from the cams moving at a rate of 350 revolutions per minute, to the flying spindles, "whose revolu tions per minute exceed 12,000, every part must be in unison. For, should one part be retarded a little, and another part speeded up unduly through faulty lubri cation, there would be a strain on the fabric, and a break. The seriousness of such a break is seen when it is understood that the seyering of a single thread will bring the giant loom to a standstill instantly. This is but a single example of the problems constantly being brought to Standard Oil Company (Indiana) lubri cating engineers for solution, and em phasizes the necessity for the minutest accuracy on the part of these specialists in drawing specifications for v special lubricants, and the need for extreme accuracy on the part of the manufac-. turing department in producing lubri cants to meet these specifications. It illustrates how highly specialized is the branch of industry which engages the attention of the Standard Oil Com pany (Indiana), and the degree of en thusiasm for perfection which must pre vail throughout this" organization. And this enthusiasm does prevail. Har mony and concentrated interest is ever present throughout the organization of 25,000 men and women, every one of whom, from the Chairman of the Board of Directors to the lowliest recruit, is bending every effort to do his part in the production of useful products, and to have each of st superiorstandard of fineness.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL- THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 16, 1921 "CAPPER IN KICK Objects to Confirmation of New Militia Bureau Chief. Hopes for Gen. Chas. I. Martin Abandoned Weeks Ago. Washington, June 16. Confirma tion of the nomination of Col. George O. Rickards of Pennsylvania to be chief of the militia board of the war department was recommended today by the senate military committee after Secretary Weeks had testified that the Officer had been selected because of t'hat he and the president regarded a his superior qualifications over oth- fcr condidates. J Senator Capper. Republican, voted Gainst the recommendation and in dicated he would carry nis opposition o the senate Iloor. He contended that the spirit If not lm letter of the law had been violated n that Adjutant General Charles I. fttartin of Kansas had been recom mended for the post by thirty-five gov ernors, while General Rickards had Indorsements of only a few governors. The Washington dispatch clearly in dicated the purpose of the junior Kan sas senator to seek denial of the Rick krds confirmation by the senate body. Hopes of appointment of General plartin to the post of chief of the tnilitia bureau were abandoned sev- jsral weeks ago when it became known hat both President Harding and Sei j.etary Weeks favored the Pennsyl vania man. I While Senator Capper has Indicated hat he will oppose the Rickards con firmation on the floor, the senate precedent practically assures confirmation.

The need of home missionary work was stressed at the Congregational young people's conference Wednesdav night by the Rev. Malcolm M. Dana of new I or City, secretary of rural work in the Congregational churches in the country. Too many workers ro anxious to go abroad in the mis sion field rather than to put their ef forts into service at home. Delegates to the conference were taken to Wash burn observatory following the meet ing to enjoy astronomical views. The training school will continue thru this week. There was a hurried exodus of mo tor cars, workmen and pedestrians from the vicinity of the Jesse Farrisj oxy-acetylene welding shop, 611 Jackson street, this morning, when a gasoline, tank which had been detached from atruck. caught fire. The flames shot several feet into the air and it was feared the tank would explode. A fire company extinguished the blaze with .chemicals. The tank was so hot that the gasoline was boiling and when the cap was removed, the gasoline spurted half way across the street. An attempt to "clean up" on the police resulted .in a severe thrashing for D. Beasley. negro, known as the dope king of the bottoms, at police headquarters Wednesday night. Four negro women had been arrested by Patrolman Albin Murphy and Frank Jordan when Beasley interfered. Mur phy struck him twice and he was then peaceable until he arrived at the Jail and Prank Parcells, desk Sergeant, started to search him. He started to fieht. Parcells struck him in the jaw and Beasley in turn struck M4phy in tne eye. xne negro was soon over powered, however, and placed in the bull pen. A young white man giving his name as Leslie Wood and stating that he had escaped from the state hospital, was picked up by the police this morn ing near the Western League ball park. He was extremely ill and told the officers that he had taken arsenic, but that it caused him to vomit, which probably saved his life. He was taken to police headquarters, where a call was sent to the state hospital. Offi cers from that institution came after him, stating that he had been allowed to go to his home Wednesday even ing. He had apparently almost re covered from the effects of the poison this afternoon, it was said. V Dr. Don R.

After attending these lectures, which will last for a week or ten days. Doctor Paine will return to Topeka. RED CROSS NEEDSFUNDS Personal Solicitations Will Be Made by Shawnee Chapter. Topeka citizens have only twenty- four hours more to make voluntary donations to the Pueblo relief fund. After that they will be subjected to per sonal solicitation by members of the Shawnee chapter of the American Red Cross. This announcement was made today by an officer after a complete check showed that only $695 has been sub scribed to date. The county quota is $2,000. It was hoped that there would be no necessity of making a drive for funds to help out in the dire distress of the citizens of the flood stricken districts. The call for funds has not been respbnded to very liberally, how ever, and since the Red Cross is al ways very anxious to go the limit in the performance of its duties, no stones will be left unturned to raise the money. The Red Cross office in the New England building is open each day from 9 to 12 o'clock in the morning. and from 1:30 to 4:30 o'clock in the afternoons.

TO ADJUST FREIGHT RATES P. V. C. Plan Provides for Slightly Lower Charges. As the result of a. hearing conduct ed by the public utilities commission an immediate adjustment of freight rates is to be made in Kansas which will provide a slightly lower level on joint hauls, Clyde M. Reed, chairman of the commission, announced today Carriers in Kansas have acceded to the demand made by traffic bureaus in Topeka, Atchison, Salina, Hutch inson and Wichita to establish a joint class rate. Chairman Reed said. Pre viously freight rates have Tjeen fig ured separately -for each railroad's haul. Now they will be figured on the total haul, plus an arbitrary trans fer charge. The carriers and shippers are en deavoring to come to an exact agree ment on the basic scale. The railroads desire the Kansas state distance tariff used, w-hich is higher than the Kan sas jobbers' scale asked by the ship pers. The carriers have submitted a proposed scale of transfer charges ranging from 7 cents to 13 cents a hundred pounds. -The scale proposed by the shippers ranges from 4 cents to uft cents. An -order will be issued by the util ities commission as soon as the details are worked out. Reed said. SHORT OF HARVEST LABOR Wage Scale Is Boosted In Vicinity of Hutchinson.

Farmers are now paying 84 a day for harvest hands and the supply is not equal to the demand. The telegram was referred by Secretary Mohler to the labor department of the industrial court.

K The "Spirit of Service" Wins Through the extraordinary and unremitting efforts of our employes, telephone service in Topeka, which was completely interrupted yes terday by-fire, was largely restored this morn ing. A number of iines, including rural, are still out of order. Many of these will be-restored by the end of the day. While all telephones will be restored, to service, that portion of the switchboard af fected by the fire is completely out of service, and may be out of service for several days. Therefore fewer switchboard positions and consequently, fewer operators will be available to handle the entire business. We suggest that our patrons limit the use of their telephones for a few days to the more im portant calls. Southwestern Bell Telephone Company Fred L. Howe, Manager. 1l" i onie Lrow acked, Jammed, Squeeze People came for miles and miles from the humblest homes as well as the mansions.
