While rumors of a sensational nature were flying thickly about Genoa circles today, most of them being promptly dis avowed, the one fact that appeared to stand out was that neither the dis armament nor reparations questions would be brought up for specific ac tion against French opposition. The disarmament discussion had centered in the rumor that Prime Minister Linyd George would propose a mili tary holiday for a fixed time. This was flatly disavowed by the British delegation. Other reports were that Kussuans and Germans were preparing to leave the conference unless repara tions and disarmament were put in the agenda. These were also officially denied. 1 It was indicated that it was still too rarlv f.r any power to quit the con ference on the ground that the gath ering was not developing value to their interests- The Russians and Germans mean while are busily engaged in trying to digest the London experts' report on Russia, with which both arp becom ing increasingly dissatisf ied.

Premier Poincare is opposed to the holding of a meeting of the allied supreme council in Genoa to consider Germany's repfv to the re paration commission's ruling on the question of a partial moratorium, it became known today. Moreover it is regarded in French of ficia 1 circles that there is little likelihood of the question coming up before the allied government until May 1 3. when the next German payment under the old schedule becomes due. By the Associated Press Genoa. April 13. A Turkish mis sion arrived here today and was re ceived by the general secretary of the economic conference. The Turks de clared they wished to be admitted to representation at the conference and trusted to be supported in their plea by George Chitcherin. head of the soviet Russian delegation. They ar gued that if Greece was represented it was only just that delegates repre senting 350.000.000 Mussulmans also should be present. I (B, the Associated Pre.,.) Genoa. April 13.

LAUNDRYMEN ARE QUESTIONED Travis Takes Exception to Insurance Motliod l-'scd Here. Topeka laundrymen are on the grill today in the office of Col. Frank L. Travis, stato superintendent of insur ance. Using his own expression, he "wants to know whether they are run ning laundries or insurance agencies." Travis took exception to the methods adopted by local laundries in passing insurance responsibilities over to their customers. several Topeka laundrymen were summoned to the state house today to tell of insurance charges to patrons. According to information secured by ti. state department patrons of local laundries are charged one cent for in surance on each bundle. These penny premiums, it is claimed, absorb the in surance expense of the laundries and care for charges of insurance against loss and damage of clothing and wash materials The insurance representatives ex plained that in their opinion the charge was a nominal one. According to information claimed to have been secured bv the insurance superin tendent premiums collected from ma trons not only pay premiums on in surance against large bulk losses, but provide a fund for payment of minor claims which laundries pay from their share of the added revenue. It was reported today that the state department may decide to make a state-wide investigation into the method of laundries in insuring pa trons against loss and collection of so called arbitrary premium charges. POLAND TRADES WITH SOVIET. Cloth and Food Smuggled Into Russia as Exchange for Jewels. "Warsaw. April 13. Poland and So viet Russia are doing some trading despite their difficulty In arranging a trade convention. For months Poland has been send ing into Russia, by wagon and by packs on horses' backs, great amounts of cloth and some food supplies, most of the business being carried on at night away from the beaten path where either Soviet guards or Polish soldiers are on watch. In return the smugglers have been receiving some of the old Russian gold rubles, which peasants had buried, hides, furs and in some instances dia monds. Dress material and bright colored shawls which the Russian peasant women wear over their heads on Sun day when they go to church are in greater demand than at any time since Russia's troubles began and, accord ing to travelers, bring a fancy price once these goods are landed on the other aide.

Smitl was killed instantly, but Bennet lingered for several moments. Sir Keith Smith a brother to Sir Ross; saw the accident from the field. He nau im iiutfu u HLLUinpariy ins prom er on the round-the-world flight. The airmen were using a specially designed Vic leers machine which had previously been tested by Captain Cocknll. an aviation expert. Just before the disaster, it was an nounced that Sir Ross had planned to begin his world girdling journey from Westminster on the Thames. Spare parts of the machine had already been dispatched to various cities thru- out the world where the airmen hoped to make stops. Sir Keith Smith was to have ac companied his brother but was late. arriving on the field two minutes after the machine had ascended. Ben nett. a flight lieutenant, was substi tuted for Sir Keith as engineer. Sir Ross was reckoned to be Great Britain's most careful aviator. His motto was: "Safety first and never take a chance." "When a crowd called upon him "Wednesday to wish -him Godspeed on his world-wide flight, he told them he was confident of sue cess. "I have Implicit faith In the ma chine and have thought out every de tail of the journey," said he. "I be lieve I will be able to make a spec tacular flight across the Atlantic." The only" explanation of todav's disaster was bad weather. There was a sharp, gusty wind 'blowing during ine ratal iiignt. Spectators believed that the airmen were making nose dive to test the strength of the machine. It swooped so suddenly that all were taken by surprise. The impact of the airplane shattered it to bits, but there was no fire. f Sir Keith removed his brother's body to the morgue. WASHING OFF THE WHITEWASH. General Semenoff Stands Out More Clearly as Butcher of Russia. Washington, April 13. The net of circumstantial evidence, branding General Gregorie Semenoff, the "wolf of Siberia," with responsibility for the slaughter of 100,000 Russians, was tightened today when the American Legion joined army commanders in condemning him as a "brutal mur derer." Appearing before the senate com mittee on education and labor, John Thomas Taylor, legislative agent for the legion, bitterly assailed Semenoff and demanded his deportation. The committee, it was stated by Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho, will recom mend deportation if the charges of barbaritv and inhuman bloodshed are upheld against Semenoff. n. was stated today that Semenoff probably will appear in person be fore the committee to answer his ac cusers. Now under arrest In New York, Semenoff is technically pre vented from leaving that state owing to bail bond regulation. If the court agrees. It was paid, he will appear be fore the state committee.

MOTORIST MUMBLINGS We all realize that the truck driver isn't out riding for his health or for pleasure but his work doesn't excuse him for the infractions of the rules of the road or courtesy or the city ordinances. Frequently downtown traffic espe cially on Jackson and Quincy streets is hampered due to the habit of truck drivers in parking their long vehicles at almost right angle to the curbing. An otherwise wide traffic way is thus obstructed. The city ordi nances specify parking privileges and angles and the truck driver should not be exempt. Now for the courtesy of the streets: Truck drivers, seated high In their near-armored vehicles, appear ob livious to the' rights of motor car drivers. They slam right thru inter sections without granting the "man-to-the-right" a chance of slipping thru. They take the middle of the street and keep it right or wrong. Many Topeka streets are surfaced with a strip of asphalt. This surfac ing is wide enough for two cars and on some streets on which street car lines are operated a very narrow fhar gin is left. Truckmen seem to take special delight in forcing others over into the car tracks or on to the rough paving. Truck drivers cerjainly are entitled to the.r rights. If there Is any argu ment involving a slight advantage they should be given a shade the best of it their presence on the streets :s a duty, not a privilege. But. when they take unto, themselves all of the right of -way, rules and ordinance to is time their actional the contrary, it should be regulated. YEAR ISTO BOOM Livestock Is Falling Farmer Out of Depression. Other Business KeT lying- as the Normal Conditions Bet urn. Chicago, April 13. The livestock industry has set the pace for agricul tural readjustment and indications are that "it will continue to exert a dominant Influence on the return of business to normal conditions," ac cording to a quarterly report' issued today by S. B. Stafford, president of the Chicago livestock exchange. "Hog values are on a sound basis." says the report, "continued light sup plies may be expected. Even the heralded over supply next winter will hardly materialize because of the enormous losses the spring pig crop has sustained. "A high sheep market all summer may be expected on account of meager supplies. The shortage is general thruout the country but mos acute east of the Missouri river. "Cattle should sell at higher levels. We are on the verge of a scarcity of beef producing animals that would have become acute before now had not the depression caused an increase In marketing at the same time it cur tailed consumptive demand. "The approach of warm weather im proves the outlet for beef. Tne only liberal supply of cattle now is ap parent will come from Kansas and Oklahoma pastures. Texas and the range country are far short of their normal quota. Aged western cattle no longer exist. "The faith of the producers In the future of the livestock industry is shown by their active demand for breeding animals. Good cows have doubled in value since last year and now are bringing in $50 to $60 a head in the west. "The lower grades of cattle have moved up sharply in response to an active demand for feeder cattle. Hogs and sheep men have profited substan tially by the upturn in values. Mar gins of $2 to $3 between buying and selling figures on feeding steers have netted the farmer more for his corn than he could have obtained from the elevator. f "The situation Is full of promise for a profitable future. Every indication points to an increasingly profitable livestock industry and with it is bound to come a gradual improvement in general trade conditions." LEGION FOR LARGER NAVY.

Moore, secretary of the agricultural agency of the War Finance corporation, Kansas City, Mo., told Kansas bank ers gathered here for the annual con vention of the Kansas state sanKers association, today. "There is no other single law in Kansas that has cost the farmers as much money in fact all the other laws combined do not affect so materially the farmers' financial interests, as the exemption law," Secretary Moore said. "Kansas bankers should take it upon themselves to show the bor rowers the effect of this provision and attempt to have it repealed immedi atelv. "It is only a line that separates Kan sas from Missouri, both are farming and livestock states, but the differ ence in the rate of interest for the past thirty years is fully 2 per cent in favor of the Missouri farmer. The exemption limit in Missouri is $1,500 in cash and property, while in Kansas a married farmer has an exemption of 160 acres of land as a homestead and a considerable amount of personal property besides-" Secretary Moore stated that If the exemption provision were repealed, he believed there would be a decided re duction in interest rates.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1922 3 WOULD BE A BLOW Christianity Will Suffer if Be lief Work Is Dropped. Declares Bey. John It. Voris, Official of X. E. Belief. IN CONFERENCE HERE TODAY Met Religious Leaders of State at C. of C. Luncheon. The Rev. Voris Mas Formerly Pastor of Kansas Churches Mohammedanism will receive its greatest victory, and Christian mis sionary work will be given its greatest blow, if America discontinues its phU anthropic relict work and permits thousands upon thousands of Christian children to die. according to a state ment made today by Rev. John R. Voris of New York city. Doctor Voris who is associate general secretary of the National Near East Relief commit tee, was the principal speaker at i luncheon of prominent clergymen and representatives of various religious or g-anirations at the Chamber of Com merce today- F" John It. Voris. Mr. Voris, at today's luncheon said: "In order to obtain the necessary funds fur the Near East Relief, an in tensive appeal must be made in every community. People will give liberally if they understand the need. Without such an intensive appeal only smalt sums will be secured and small sums thus secured will not provide what is needed to keep these children alive. Intensive Appeal Is Costly. "But the intensive appeal costs pro hibitively except as there may be a sympathetic readiness for the appeal and ample volunteer help during a. lo cal campaign. The church field day in the com munity and the community campaign are the most effective and fruitful methods thus far discovered for arous ing interest, creating conviction and securing money for the Near East Re lief they furnish ministers and lay men an opportunity to contribute their maximum to the cause. "The endorsement of this catise and plan of production by official denomi national assemblies, conventions and conferences national, fcue and dis trict) the country over, is an inesti mably important factor in securing the generous support of givers in local congregations at a minimum expense. "Therefore, the most effective way In which denominational Ha tiers can feed the hungry and clothe the naked' in the far-a-way Bible lands, is to in terest their fellow ministers and lay men; to assist in securing trie support of every official church gathering; and to help make possible an appeal in every local congregation." Is Visit hup Several States. Doctor Voris in on a visit to various states for the purpose of conferring with local leaders relative to the co operation of denominations wita Near East Relief. In explaining- the program of the Near East Relief organization he im pressed upon his hearers today the ef forts being made to keep down operat ing expenses so that the maximum amount of funds contributed actually goes to relieve the starving. He told of one orphanage under the auspices of the Near East Relief in which 20, 000 orphan children are being fed. clothed and educated. He asserted that if the organization discontinued its efforts at the present time its work would only be half done, and thou sands of children who have no other means of support, would die. "It's tragic enough." said Doctor Voris. "to let a little child die amidst the dirt and squalor, but it is worse if he is once given a ray of hope, and then cast asid to perish. It is up to t'ie churches of America, to get behind this humanitarian movement. There are no stabilized governments in the Near East. You destroy Christianity in that country if you let Armenia and Syria die. This is not a relief work, but the Question of saving a race." Has Been Successful. Mr. A'oris as director of the depart ment of organizational relations of the Near East Relief has been very suc cessful thruout the United States in enlisting the interest and co-operation of religious, fraternal, social and com mercial groups in the work of reliev ing the distress of the orphans and widows of Armenia and other of the Bible lands. Catholics. Jewish and Protectant organizations have in dorsed and are supporting war-orphans because of the presentation to their leaders and conventions by Mr. Voris and his associates of the plans, poli cies and operations of the Near East Relief, which has been chartered by and is responsible to the United States congress. Traveled In Near East. Mr. Voris has had exceptional train ing for the diplomatic work in which he is engaged. Last year he traveled far into the interior of both Russia and Asiatic Turkey as a member of a trained party of American observers without any assurance of protection from any government. His observa tions during that hazardous trip have enabled him to write numerous arti cles and give many addresses describ ing the destruction of old nations and the remaking of new ones. Was Kansas Pastor. Prior to the recent World war, Mr. Voris was pastor of churches in col lego towns In Wyoming and Kansas, his last charge in Kansas being in Manhattan.

Immediately following Mr. Voris return from abroad a few months ago while he stated among other things that the famine and pestilence condi- ions in these countries were almost in describable in the extent of their aw fulness. he said: "But amidst all thii misery, there was one refreshing sight. It was that of the childrer who have been gathered into the vari ous Near Kast Relief orphanages at Alexandropol. at Karakliss, at Erivan and elsewhere. Tho they were no; receiving luxurious care, they are get ting everything they need to keep them well and healthy. What a con trast they presented to the miserable little wretches outside the gates! There were thousands of them, eigh teen thousand in Alexandropol alone and vast numbers more in other cen ters, so many in fact, that they have taxed the orphanage facilities to the utmost. Gov. Henry J. Allen, state chairma of the Kansas N. E. R. committee with other state officers of the organi zation participated in the conference. FARM MEASURES HIS STAND.

The pro posed armed campaign against rum runners on the American side of the Canadian border is entirely lawful but it will not take the drastic form fore cast by preliminary announcements by prohibition officials, it was stated officially at the treasury department today.

Ask That Interlocking System Order Be Set Aside, The Frisco railroad brought suit in the federal court today against the state utilities commission asking that an order which the commission issued on March 13 for the installation of an interlocking system at the crossing of the Frisco and Katy tracks at Mound Valley, Kan., be set aside and the com mission enjoined from putting it into effect. The order was obtained on applica tion of the Katy but the Frisco charged that the plant is not necessary as a safety measure and that the expense of from $24,000 to $25,000 required to install it is unwarranted. The Frisco insists that the plan of stopping all trains at the crossing, which has been in effect since the Katy line was built in 188S. is satisfactory and sufficient and attacks the commission's order from a number of angles. The Frisco built its tracks thru Mound Valley, known as the Joplin-Ellsworth line, in 1880. DRUNK HE STAYED AT HOME. Texas Judge Frees Man Who Dldn' Disturb His Neighbors.

The plan of the ship subsidy advocates is to promise the farmer 4the waterway in return for the lat. ,-fer'B support of the subsidy measure. -Thus they will be expected to pay for something they do not want in order 'to obtain the prospect of something f they want. f It is estimated that the tariff bill as submitted to the senate will yield "approximately $300,000,000 in reve tine, annually. It is estimated, fur- ther. that for every dollar the govern ment collects, the consumers will pay 100 to the tariff beneficiaries In add f ed costs. Announcement of the closing of the rational bank of Greece is made in the cable dispatches. Apparently Homebody is bringing pressure to bear on Greece to make her stop persecut ing the poor Turks. The coal strike is calling attention "to the wasteful methods employed in thi.-, the most poorly managed of all :the country's industries. We have the largest coal reserves of any nation in the world. They are easily accessible "and except in the case of anthracite, ;they are practically inexhaustible at least they will last for thousands of years with an output double the vol- ume of today. It therefore seems in credible that with these vast deposits it should be difficult, or almost ira possible, for the men that mine the icoal to obtain a living aggregate wage, and that the consumer should have to pay prices that impose hard ships, both on Industrial production and the houaehold consumer. It is being developed that production costs 'are too riish: the wage scale of trie f mners is too high; the profits of the operators are too large; there has been profiteering all along ths line from the mine to the smallest retailer; rand the cost to the consumer is exor bi'ant. "That janitor who accidentally burned important papers in the case against Gov.

It appears to be regarded as a good business proposi tion to spend) 100 to save one dollar. An advance In the price of gasoline has been announced by the Standard Oil company. Probably John TJ.'s winter in Florida is proving to be more expensive than he expected. Trouble already is developing in the Genoa conference dus to ths pres ence of ths Russisns.

Yet that ia a characteristic of the union coal mines, declares the "Coal Age." The. coal miner, it says, is the freest workman on earth.

His working; place, his "room," is his. Two days" absence without ex cuss are not penalized. One of the demands of the union this year is that the automatic penalty of a dollar per day for absence beyond two days be removed, as it was before the war. IJfCLE SAM AS ADVERTISER. The federal government is engaged in demonstrating the value of adver tising as a means of increasing the sale of treasury certificates, with gratifying success. An advertising campaign has been carried on in Omaha, with the result it is reported, that Nebraska has forged ahead of all other states in the same federal reserve district in the value of cer tificates sold. Advertising has become so much a matter of course that few persons outside of those engaged in it realize what it means to the business world. It is estimated that approximately 1700.000.000 was expended in 1920 for newspaper advertising in the "United States. Advertising makes for prosperity it increases business, creates a market for goods and disposes of them as necessities or because of advantages and inducements attractively set forth. It hits at hard times by put ting money into circulation and keeps it moving it helps to strengthen pub lic confidence by stimulating trade activity. Advertising is a species of education for the pubtic. Competition and high standards of excellence demanded by an intelligent and discriminating pub lic have given advertisements a high reading value. An advertisement in a sense, Is as much news as any oc currence described In ths news col umns of a newspaper. Announce ments of merchants have great news value and form one of the most inter esting features of a dally newspaper. On the other hand, stores would not be able to develop their large sales without newspapers. Greece has rejected a suggestion that she withdraw her army from cer tain occupied portions of Turkey. A hint from Bngland may become nec essary in order to induce her to move. England always keeps watch and ward over the Turk and sees that no serious harm befalls him. If there have been any feeling against him for taking the side cf ths kaiser in the recent world disturbance It now Is forgotten and he has been forgiven. With it all he continues to rob and murder the Armenians while we con tinue to feed them. THE Pl'BLIC WANTS RESULTS. The supreme court's decision that the interstate commerce commission has the power to overrule intrastate rate decisions of stats rail commis sions ended another long drawn fight over state's rights In favor of ths fed eral government. "Commerce," says Chief Justice Taft, "is a unit and does not regard stats lines. But what does the public get out ot it? Since the commission Is eon firmed in its authority to regulate the transportation business according to its own views It is fairly presumed that such regulation should be pri marily In the public interest. Freight and passenger rates still are so high as to be burdensome to the people. State rail boards have been thorns in the sides of the railroads. Given birth in a spasm of public anger, the boards frequently persecuted the linea Later on when the public's clamor for blood had subsided, some of the stata boards became the tools of busi ness cliques. They lowered rates within ths territories under their jur isdiction. In order to discriminate against cities in nearby states. Of course, retaliation followed in the states affected. Ths supreme court ruling, there fore, Is welcome. There Is no reason why a passenger or a pound of cof fee being transported from one state to another should pay more than when being hauled entirely within the imaginary boundary lines by which statss ars designated on ths maps. But ths Interstate commerce com mission, says the Sioux City Tribune in commenting on the decision, should not forget in the hour of its growing power that it was created to protect the people from th'e avarice fit rait way financiers, as well as to defend the railroads from mob rule. It will Justify Its existence only thru obtain ing for the nation adequate transpor tation service at reasonable costs. It Is ths duty of the commission to make it possible for the railroads to do this and then see that they do it. Whatever difficulties Jie In the way should be removed. Amending the federal constitution might have been expected to put an end ta prohibition as a political Issue, but apparently It has not done so. A congressional campaign has Just been fought out In a New Tork district with prohibition aa ths paramount question. As usual, both sides claim a rictory, altho the "drys" succseded tn electing ths candidate. If Russia would feed her starving people and France would psy her debts, neither would be able to main tain her hugs standing army as a menace to the peace of her neighbors and the world generally. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC X IIASKIX. TMrectotr, Washington. D. C THE ORIGINAL STAR SPANGLED BANNER. Washington, D. C, April 10. Prob ably the most interesting flag in the world to Americans is on exhibition in the National Museum in this city the original "Star Spangled Banner." the bit of bunting which inspired Francis Scott Key to pen the immor tal lines now popularly accepted as the national anthem of the United States The old battle flag, ripped and frayed, is being carefully preserved for the eyes of Americans of today and generations to come. An emblem of the many struggles thru which this young country had to go, any visitor to Washington who fails to go to see this inspiring flag, now over a hun dred years old, is making a regrettable mistake. The way in which Key happened to write the hymn is interesting. Un der a flag of truce, young Key visited the British fleet lying off Baltimore to discuss certain features of law af fecting a proposed exchange of prison ers. The American emissary went aboard the "Minden." flagship of the British Admiral Cockburn. As it happened, the British battle plans called for a bombardment ot Baltimore, the time for the opening gun set for shortly after the time Francis Key came aboard the vessel. For obvious reasons, the British naval commander decided that it would be bettor trt keen Kev aboard the "Min den" during the engagement, .virtually a prisoner. According to the British plan, the bombardment began at sunrise on September 13, 1814. and lasted until 7 o'clock in the morning of the fol lowing day. During the time this was going on the ardently patriotic young Kev was forced to watch his own compatriots under fire in Fort Mc Henry and Baltimore. All thru the night Key naturally was unable to tell which way the for tunes of war veered. The night was a rainy, dark one, and the flashes of guns from the ships and shore bat teries were no indication of whether; the British attackers or the American defenders were getting the worst of the engagement. Key's Vigil Rewarded. But with the long awaited and prayed for dawn. Key, in the uncer tain light, saw the Stars and Stripes still floating proudly over Fort Mc Henry, and knew that his comrades were undefeated. The experience of waiting thru the long, wet night for the news of the outcome of the bombardment, and the rush of joy when his eyes saw. across the stretch of water in the first faint light of early morning, the American flag still waving over the fort, were the inspiration for the poem which is known by heart today by every school child thruout the land. Soon after the cessation of the bom bardment. Key was conducted ashore, again under a flag of truce, and imme diately, while the glow of inspiration was still fresh in his mind, penned the Immortal words of "The Star Spangled Banner." At the very time that Key was putting them on paper Admiral Cockburn ordered anchors aweigh, and the British fleet headed down Chesapeake bay, away from Baltimore, as fast as possible. Key sent a copy of his poem to a printer in Baltimore. Captain Benja min Edes. Captain Edes was in structed to have the poem printed and copies distributed about the streets to the citizens of Baltimore. One Ferdi nand Durang, a young man, first sang the song when it was just off the press. The tune put to it. was that of "Anacreon in Heaven." Captain Edes. who had won con siderable reputation as a soldier, took one of the first copies off the press, and dashed with it in his hand to a little tavern kept by a Mrs. Berling. Here the soldier-printer found Cap tains Warner and Long, Major Krai ley, young Durang, and other friends of his. First of all Captain Edes read the printed poem aloud, his friends cheer ing lustily at the end of each verse. Then it was suggested that Durang. who enjoyed considerable local repu tation as a singer, be called upon. Durang. who was possessed of none of that false modesty which afflicts many who verge on being vocal ar tists, mounted a chair and put his heart into singing "The Star Spangled Banner" for the first time. After he had sung it once, everybody in trie little tavern sang the song under his leadership. This singing was kept up for several hours, bo great was the enthusiasm and patriotic fervor mov ing the people of Baltimore because of the recent repulse of the enemy fleet of British ships. Song Sung In Theater. The little tavern owned by Mrs. Berling, which was the setting for this historical scene, was right next door to the Holiday Street theater. When the theater opened for the season, the song was made a part of every per formance. However, instead of play ing the anthem Just before the be ginning of the performance, as was the custom in all American theaters during the World war, the song was rendered afterward. It was not mere ly orchestral, the entire company of actors leading all of the audience In shouting the immortal words to the very heavens. One "Paddy" McFar land was the leading man of the the atrical company then playing at the Holiday Street theater, and he it was who led the singing. The tattered old flag now In the National Museum here was carefully preserved, chiefly because it was the inspiration of the famous anthem. Probably it would .have been kept somewhere as a treasured reminder of the repulse of the British at Balti more, but the whole nation took an interest in this battle-scarred bit of bunting because of its association with Key's inspired patriotic poem. Despite the fact that the old flag was mounted on net and carefully mended, it still reveals the signs ot age and wear, and plainly shows that it has been thru strenuous times. The old emblem of this nation has little in common with the flag of to day except the general plan on which it is made, with the blue field dotted with white stars In the corner, and the alternate red and whits stripes. However, where today there are forty elprht stars, in six horizontal rows of eight stars each, there are In the old Fort McHenry flag but fifteen stars all told.

In the early days. It was customary not only to add a star for each ad ditional state admitted to ths Union, but to add a stripe to the flag as well. When the country reached its days of real expansion, this had to be stopped. and the stripes in the flag were re duced to thirteen, to correspond to the thirteen original colonies which were formed into the United States of America when this country freed itself from British rule. However, the country had not gone back to thirteen stripes for its flag in 1814, and there were just as many stripes as stars in the blue field and the old inspiration for Key's poem has fifteen stripes. Key was not a Baltimorean, but was born in Frederick county, Maryland. He was a lawyer, practicing his pro fession in Washington and "the town of Frederick, later famous as the home of Barbara Krietchie. Key was buried in the little cemetery at Fred erick. His home in Washington was one of the sights of the city for a long time, being torn down not long ago in order that a big new bridge connecting Washington with Virginia might have its Washington end on the site of the old Key home. The bridge is known to Washingtonians as the "Key Bridge" because of this fact. Helen Hunter's Husband BY JANE PHELPS LONELINESS CHANGES HELEN'S NATUREl Chapter 70 Had Helen Hunter wanted to be re venged on Jack for anything she would surely have had her wish in the days that followed Nell Layton's visit her arraignment of him. What had become of the gay, heed less girl he had married? In her place there had come a quiet, rather sad looking girl-woman, who agreed with him in everything, instead-of demand ing and taking her own way. A girl- woman who worked hard to make his home a pink of neatness and his meals delectable, instead of letting him look out for himself and her too;- a girl woman who neglected nothing: who took rebuke without becoming angry. Could she be the -same girl he had locked in her room, the girl who had thrown the breakfast tray on the floor, then a few hours afterward met him as gayly as if nothing had happened? Jack had thought her devilish then. Now he almost wished to have ber as she was. He brought the tickets home, telling her he had been able to get fairly good seats in spits of the popularity of the Revue. "That's nice." she quietly replied, ehen went on with her dinner for a few moments. Finally she said: "I hope you won't be bored." "Indeed I shan't nor you either if what I hear of the Revue is any cri terion! Dunn told me he had seen it three times." ,A flicker of Interest crossed Helen's face only to pass immediately. She dressed without saying anything, and Jack suddenly recalled that she seldom chatted with, him' now. He read after dinner until bed time and then often left her with a magazine in her hand when he retired. "What makes you so quiet?" he asked, knowledge pressing upon him, regret making him long to have her say something, act as she used to. "Oh. I don't know! I'm n more quiet that usual, I guess." Jack's heart ached. How could he have allowed her to get into this state, without noticing it until Nell Layton had-scolded him? He would have been even more re gretful could he have read Helen s Prnm tb time he had threat- onarf Tier with divorce because of Barnes, she had known no real happi noa Her worrv. her anxiety all those long weeks she had spent with his mother, when even nis iBuen bv her no clue as to his intentions, when save for the simple farm tasks, her work with his mother ehe had noth ing to take up her mind. Then her efforts to please him, all her thoughts centered upon him, trying to make up to him for the disgrace she had almost brought to him; the unaccustomed loneliness, when day after day she saw no one save him. Instead of spending her time with her gay com panions, and he most of the time ab sorbed in a book, orchis plans which while they included her, were only a little interesting, because she couldn't focus her mind upon them. She looked very young, very sweet when she was. ready. She had been about to wear a street dress and her new turban, but Jack, recalling how she used to love to wear evening dress, have him put on his dinner coat, pro posed they dresa. "Of course if you would like to," she replied and without another word changed. Her meekness, so different from her former enthusiasm, chilled him. He made an effort to joke; a littls but while perfectly pleasant, he could not coax a laueh. But it was not the lack of amuse ment that had changed Helen, altho that had played a part, perhaps a con siderable part. It was the feeling that she was being punished; that she had deserved it this time, and must take her medicine. That she could not rebel, because Jack had forgiven her when he might have thrown her out that he had made very plain to her in his first indignation; and his deter mination to turn the unhappy episode to account. That he had gone to an extreme not intended in the first place; that Helen's falling in with all his wishes, keeping her promises to the letter, had taken all life, all spirit from the eirl who. while So foolish. had not meant any wrong and who had loved him thrt everything. Reallv Jack was now in more dan ger of losing- Helen's love than ever he had been thru Barnes, or tnru his fault-finding. The deadly mo notony of the life he subjected her to. was fast changing her entire nature and she dared not complain. (Tomorrow An awakening.) JUST FOLKS BY EDGAR A. GUEST. SBU.F-RESPECT.

(Copyright. 1922. by Edgar A. Gnest) Evening Story The Dill Pride BT CLARISSA MACKIE. Clementine Dill watched her aunt's flying fingers as they flashed in and out of the scarlet yarn. Miss Emily Dill was knittina; a sweater for Clem entine. "1 am glad I chose scarlet," said Miss Dill, tapping Clem's smooth head with her ivory needle. "It is pretty," agreed Clem, dream ily. "It will give you soma color, child. Tou are as pale as war berries. I am going to call on Dr. Brown." "Aunt Emily, please!" Clementine looked distressed. I am quite all right, only I don't get out of doors as much as I used to; but -I will take a long walk every day after this." Miss Emily looked intently at the girl she had reared as her own daugh ter. She had always meant well by Clementine, and they had alwavs been so happy together in the old red brick house happy, that is, until Jerry Landers had come a-wooing. "Jerry Landers? No!" announced Miss Emily coldly. "Clementine Dill, Emily Dill's niece? No!" shouted Ebenezer Landers fiercely as he rode toward the planta tion of yodng spruces that his men were setting out on the north slope. "Why?" asked Clementine, with wonder in her big blue eyes. Emily Dill blushed and looked very handsome with her crown of silver hair piled high above her still youth ful face. "Why?" she repeated. "Be cause I do not approve of the Landers and I am sure you would not marry in opposition to my wishes." Clementine made no reply. Secretly she believed her aunt's reason was ab surd it sounded like a sentence from some early Victorian novel. She- had always been an obedient child, so now sne meekly accepted the verdict and hopefully waited for Emilv Dill tn change her mind. 'On this pleasant winter afternoon several months afterward, while Clem entina sat by the fire and idly watched Miss Emily as she knitted the red sweater that was to bring color to a pale girl's cheeks. Fate in the prosaic shape of Augusta Barnes was hurry ing thru the snowy paths to the Dill house. "Tou two are cozy as cats and cream," breezed Augusta as she swept into a chair and tossed her cape and hat to Clem and shuffled her rubbers off and put them near the hearth to dry. "Well, some folks can be happy and agreeable and others quarrel and fight it's Just as the good Lord makes 'em, I suppose!" "I suppose so, Gussie. Now, Clem, my dear, suppose you bring in some tea and cup cakes As the girl left the room Miss Dill laughed and shook her head disapprovingly at her caller. "More gossip, Gussie? Tou are Incor rigible!" "I may be that," agreed the other bluntly, "but you must admit, Emily, that I am interestin'." Emily Dill's eyes twinkled merrily and one could see what a pretty girl she must have been not so very many years ago by "love's time." "Tou are interesting, Gussie! WTho is it now? Jake, Harry and Betsy?" "White folks this time, Emily one of your old beaux, too. They say Capt Ebenezer and Jerry have quarreled about a girl." "A girl?" repeated Emily, growing very white. "Tea not over a girl. The captain hasn't looked at a woman -except to scowl since you gave him the right about years ago." "Tou were speaking about Jerry and some girl," suggested Miss Dill, re gaining all her color. "Didn't hear who the girl's name the one who told It to me said they heard the first of it last September: seems Jerry wanted to marry some girl and his father' swore he wouldn't have it; said the girl's family was a higrh-handed, proud, resentful race, and he would havn" none of It. Then this same person, mind you. heard the captain and Jerry at it again today: and Jerry said he was going away and his father said he would disinherit him, and Jerry sputted out that money wasn't everything; love counted some times, and he was going to have his girL That's a pretty mess, isn't It, Emily V "I hope It isn't as bad as It sounds," said Emily pleasantly, as she arose to open the door for Clem and a heavily laden tray. "I have forgotten how; von lifco vour tea. Gussie," she added as she resumed her seat and lifted the old-fashioned teapot. "Cream and two lumps of sugar. Mv, those cakes are good to look at, Emily." And Gussie plunged once more Into her bag of gossip and drew forth another taie to regale aunt and niece as they drank their tea. Just as she was going down the path Au gusta turned her sharp nose over her shoulder. "I forgot to telt you, Emily, that Jerry Landers left town on the noon train; said he was going out west somewhere." The gate clicked sharply as she went out and the clos ing of the house was like a faint echo. Emily Dill faced her niece with con cern. "Now, Clemantine, don't be foolish. The Dills have got too much pride to wear their hearts on their sleeves, I hope ana stop your cry ing, child, you will make yoursen sick." They were Back in the sitting room aa-ain and Emily was holding Clem In her motherly arms as if she had been a little child attain. "He he went away and never said good-by to me," sobbed the girl brokenly. "I know I know it Is hard to bear, but have some pride, about it, Clem mie "P-pride Isn't everything In this world, auntie," flung out the girl. "Love means more and forgiveness and getting along and Jerry and I loved each other Strange expressions crossed Miss Dills' face. Pain and wonder and re gret then determination. Suddenly she arose and placed Clem on the old couch before the fire, picked up two kittens from a basket and dropped them in the girl's arms and hurried into some outdoor parmenta "I will return in a little while." she said, and hurried out the back door and across lots. She met Capt. Ebenezer Landers at his own back door. "I am calling on you, Ebenezer." she announced. "Yes, Emily." saidvthe dark-browed captain as he led the way into his sit tinr room. "Sit down." vWhere is Jerry? Never mind tell ing me. I know, I've heard it all; and altho I said I'd never forgive you, I will and I beg you to give your eon sent to his marrying Clementine. I beg this of you, Ebenezer." "No, no, you mustn't do that, he said huskily. "It's my temper:' the boy's right: he's upstairs getting ready to go. Will you toll him, Emily?" She sped thru the room and up the stairs to Jerry's room. Two seconds later a young whirlwind flew thru the sitting room, caught Ebenexer into its embrace and departed, doors slam ming. Emily came down, tears on her cheeks. Ebenezer put bis hand on her un resisting one. "Jetry and Clem, can have this house. I don't suppose you can forgive me at this late day "Pride isn't everything," she quoted softly. "Love is everything, and we have missed so' much. There is room in my house for you and me, my dear."

"I have looked in vain." writes F. H. B.. "for comment on your part on the agitation of the students or tne famous Big Three to abolish cham pionships, intercollegiate football con tests and the glamour and fuss at present occasioned thereby. It seems peculiar that this move should have been delayed until other schools naa succeeded in taking the championships away from them. Of course,, it is probably coincidence, as I should hesi tate to suggest poor sportsmanship or to impute unworthy motives to these hard-working boya" Aa one whose university was a po tato patch, and who still visits period ically the corn field which ia his alma mater, we are reluctant to comment upon college activities. It seems pre sumptuous to do so. But we'd hate, to see the intercollegiate football championship contest abolished. We still believe Harvard and Yale should play a game of football every year to settle it. "Whitman, Thackeray, Meredith and Foe," Walde Frank's publishers assert, "were also laughed at."

"What's that. O'Brien?" I replied. "I never heard of it." "Why, Peter," rejoined he, "It's the stuff thev feed fools on." Thia carries the investigation back to 18S4; I can assist you no further. T. T. H. Whoever bore flapdoodle performed a great service in behalf of the writ ten and spoken word. It is one of the most effective of phraseology's ex plosive weapons. Unfortunately, It is so uncouth so physically unattractive that it can never hope to get into society. It will be Invited out from time to time. Upon occasion it will be the life of the party. But it never can hope really to belong. Physical repulsiveness puts many il legitimate children of the language out of business. There, as an instance, is the'word "slob." a particularly rugged and vivid bit of nomenclature. But it is physically so repulsive few writers have had the temerity to use .it, ana these not without a shudder.

A real championship bout between i Alan Eustace, the Kansas favorite, and Cliff Binckley, wrestling champion of the state of Ohio, may be the next catcb-as-catch-can attraction in To peka as the result of the double carded mat bill staged at the auditorium last night. Having tossed their foreign oppon ents to the padded platform with more or less ease in last night's com bat, a go between Eustace and Binck ley would appear to be the natural program and if the promoters meet a popular demand the match will be ar ranged. Binckley has already flung the challenge and it is understood that t"e Kansan is ready to accept. This doesn't mean, however, that the proposed match is certain to be pulled off at Topeka. Another Kan sas town, several days ago, is under stood to have offered $1,000 for a bout between these two grapplers and if the match is secured for Topeka this guarantee will have to be met by the local promoters. In the first event last night, Binck ley threw Gandavich. the Dalmatian champion, in straight falls, the first in 33 minutes and 5 seconds, with a body scissors and arm lock, and the second in 19 minutes and 33 seconds with a body scissors and head lock. The match was very exciting and at times was exceedingly rough. Both men appeared to possess a world of strength. Binckley having the better of it when it came to the finer points of the game. Go bar. the big Hindu, is an ag gressive wrestler but doesn't know how to handle his feet. Twice last night, he was the victim of the pain ful toehold. When it came to wrest ling any other way. the Hindu appear ed to be the equal of Eustace, but once the popular Kansan got hold of his toe it was all over. It took Eus tace 42 minutes and 44 seconds to dis cover the dark man's weakness, but the second fall came in 16 minutes and 58 seconds. Each time, the big Hindu simply bave up but it was a have-to case. One of the largest crowds of the season attended the double event last night. A number of women were present and Governor Allen was an in terested spectator. TO OPEN SEASON SOAY Santa Fe Team To Play AU-Katlon TVam at Southwestern Park.

Wichita, Kan., April 13. There is too little care given to proper mating. There are too few children in homes of wealth and culture. There is too much emphasis on people's desires and too little on their duties and respon sibilities. There are too few family altars and too little visible difference between the homes of Christians and others." These, according to Bishop Ernest L. Waldorf of the Wichita area of the Methodist Kpiscopal church, are a few of the shortcomings of the modern home life. The bishop is delivering a series of daily addresses this week at a downtown theater here prepara tory to Easter Sunday. "As to the social 'circle," he said, "there is wealth in abundance, but it is poorly distributed. Poverty and dis ease are appalling the world over and are slaying more people annually, na tion by nation, than were slain during the war. Women and children have been lifted to a higher place. There has been an increase in the amount of leisure for the individual. There is a great call for self-control and Christian guidance. "In some sections, we have come dangerously near developing a great weakness in producing a woman's aristocracy where idle women spend money in ridiculous ways while men folks toil as ridiculously to make money. "In the industrial circlet misunder standings between capital and labor are many and oftentimes are aggra vated by thoughtless leaders. Busi ness is operated on too impersonal a basis and with too much win r.' friction but on the whole with higher "ADVISING ALL MY FRIENDS TO USE INTERNAL BATHS" Miss Etta May Allis of 3716 Cen tral St..

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1922 IT PREVENTS RUM Clearing House Praised to Bankers in State Meeting. Says ETery Reform Is Result of That Bodj's ActlTlty. Hutchinson, Kan., April 1 S. The clearing house association has been the means of averting: more financial catastrophes than any other form of bank protection, George T. McCand less, manager of the Hutchinson Clear ing House association, told bankers gathered here for the thirteenth an nual convention of the Kansas Stats Bankers association, today. The pri mary purpose of the clearing house, McCandless taid, is to prevent loose banking. "The original object of the 'clearing house association was to merely ex change checks. This developed into broader functions such as the ex change of ideas and information and the- adoption of uniform action. To day It stands for co-operation among bankers. establishment of better methods, of ban kin p. to the end of economy, convenience and mutual protection." McCandless said that every bank and currency reform has been the re sult of clearing house experience and action. The establishment of the ex amination of clearing houses In 190 has resulted in making the association the soundest feature of the banking system. Since the installation of the anamination, not a dollar has been lost to a depositor by a clearing nous member, he said. "The formation of a clearing house association would be worth while if i h only result accomplished were to break down the jealousy that exists between bankers in many of the small towns at thp present tinue." McCand less said. "Thru the fellowship thus engendered, bankers find their prob lems ar similar and that their com petitors are human beinps after all. Moreover, the clearing hou associa tion is a means of assuring tbe banker f inore and lecitimate profSts. "We are living in a day of -co-operation." Mr. McCandless concliuled, "and it is most appropriate for bankers, the custodians of the savings .and cap ital of the people, to co-operate with each other in such a way as to assure the people of absolute safety for their trust in our financial institutions. No banking institution could hope to render a greater service." K. U. News Notes ALL READY FOB EDITORS Iwrcuce. Salina and K. C Kan., I 'Inn Big Entertainment In May, Salina, Kan..

A purebred Holsteln cow owned by George Young Sons, Manhattan, has just finished a year's record of pro duction that surpasses the record of all other cows in Kansas for the year. In 365 days she produced 2S.112 pounds of milk and 1,109 pounds of butter. This is an average dally pro duction of more than nine gallons of milk and more than three pounds of butter. At the beginning of her rec ord she produced as high as twelve gallons of milk and more than four pounds of butter a day. She was milked every six hours during the en tire year. Her record was verified by a repre sentative from the Kansas Agricul tural college. The cow's record won for her owners the loving cup awarded by the Kansas Dairy associa tion. The cup is awarded annually to the owner of the cow making the largest butter record for the year. This is the third year that it has been awarded and is the second time it haa been won by George Toung Sons.

All breeds of cattle are eligible to compete for this cup. but it has always been won by a Holetein cow. CROUP TO IMPROVE SOIL. Lime Crushers To Be Purchased by Community Is Farm Plan. Manhattan, Kan., April 11. Com munity lime crushers are being con sidered by the farmers of Crawford county as an economical means of supplying lime for their soila Nearly all of the soils of the east ern one-third of Kansas are in need of life, especially those of the south eastern -part, where there is a rela tively high degree of acidity. The general use ef lime has been limited by Its cost, due to high freight and long hauls. W. L. Taylor, county agent of Craw ford county, and a committee of farm ers, have made a study of the situa tion and their conclusion was In favor of community lime crushers as a means of making lime available to the farmers at a much cheaper cost than tha present. The plan is to organize a group of farmers who will purchase a crushing outfit which will be set at an outcrop of limestone, located centrally for a sub-group. This sub-group will grind its supply, then turn the crusher over to another sub-group, an so on. The expenses and labor are to be propor tioned to the amount of lime taken by each farmer. It is estimated that the cost will be reduced from 25 to 60 per cent below the present price and that tha hauls will be shortened about 60 per cent. a i St. Mary's Exam Resulta Announced:.
