Railroad exe eutlves on the other hand had prac tically abandoned all hope and pre pared to onen all shops with non union men. while the national strike committee conferred over yesterday's peace proposals. Investigators for Secretary of War Weeks and Governor Neff of Texas were to report on whether troops should be sent to protect railroad property at Denlson, Tex.

(By toe Associated Press.) Chicago, July 15. The peace dove, which yesterday flitted between sepa rate gatherings of railroad executives and leaders of the striking shop crafts, today bore a somewhat wilted olive branch which Ben W. Hooper, chairman of the United States railroad labor board, hopefully tried to freshen. Mr. Hooper announced he had encountered "fundamental" dif ficulties in his efforts to bring about peace, but more parleys are in pros pect. Differences between the shopmen and the railroads were described to day by Chairman Hooper of the labor board as fundamental. Unions Insist on abolition of contract system, revi sion of the wage scale, establishment of national adjustment boards, modi fications of protested rules, and re turn to work with no curtailment of seniority. Railroads agree to this program with the exception that seniority would not be granted, and that wages and working rules would have to be taken up again by the United States labor board. Jewell Makes Charges. B. M. Jewell, head, of the railway employes department of the American Federation of Labor and leader of the striking shopmen, today charged that a group of twelve banks and financial institutions control the financial pol icy of the railroads and laid respon sibility for continuation of the strike to Wall street's desire to crush the labor unions. These Institutions. Jewell said. eon- (Continued on Page Four) BUT IT WAS HER BOY Telephone Operator at City Got Help for "Unknown' Child Found Later That Victim Was Her Own Son. Kansas City.

Say Tools Denied to Striking Carpenter "Who Wanted Them. Still attacking the figures on men working in the shops of the Santa Fe at Topeka, the official statement of the executive board today challenges the railroad officials to permit an in vestigation by ministers! and business men of the number of men and the conditions existing in the Santa Fe shops. The statement of the executive com mittee is as follows: July 15. 1922. Much has been rtrinted abnnr th nnmlur of men now working in the Santa Fe shops. Every morning the public has been told of a substantial Increase. Thia mrthnd of publicity on the part of the railroad com- any wis nor oouot Deen intended to in luence some of oar men to return. bHt It has had little effect. The executive board takes the view that the rending public is now entitled to know the facts, tho they have been trying their best to show the fallacy of the company's figures. So sure are they of the actual conditions in the ahnna thnt tlpv .r ntfvr- ing a proposition which they nope that the company officials will readily agree to and settle this momentous question for some time and give them an opportunity te de velop a new line of publicity. They suggest that a committee made np of three ministers and three well known and reliable business men and three former employes of the shops be sent to nil de partments of the shops on a tour of in spection for the purpose of reporting to the public the actual number of men em ployed, their classification and their ap parent efficiency. In making this proposi tion it is assumed the companv foremen are competent enough to proper'lv explain the nature of the work In the interest of the company and the three former em ployes on the committee can do a lie serv ice for the men on strike. After the tour of Inspection is made ir is sipivd r ntih. lish the report of the committee over their signatures In the local press. It seems to the committee that this would be a perfectly fair proposition and they are sure the result would show which aide Is telling the truth about Topeka shop conditions. The reading public should also be in formed of the fact that there have been eleven engine faliurea on the eastern divi sion of the Santa Fe alone in the past few days, one occurring here in Topeka. This and many other Instances of like nature reflect directly on the workmanship of the men now employed In the shop and an In spection tour would positively verify it. The railroad official! are making everv possible effort to keep these facta from the public. Only yesterday the superin tendent of the shops called all clerks and timekeepers in the shops to his office and told them in plain words that real facts were being put out to the public sud warned them that if It was found that any of them had made statements to outsiders relative to the conditions In the shops, that they would be immediatelv discharged. The committee also considered Mr. Par cell's return to Chicago was likely due to his desire to avoid responsibility for the loss of the strike. It will be remembered that several years ago when the local shop men organised, Mr. Pnrcell was on the Job next morning, coming all the way from Chicago to Prevent it. He was nnsncfean- ful then, as be has been unsuccessful in this strike snd has passed the buck to the iocai superintendent, who apparently la l""-y wmiusio De me goat. to us that the company is trv- ent men that have gone out on f i HmiiH to us mat t ing 10 prevent men that have gone strike rrom working at other work In the city by refusing men their tools. A car penter reported to us yesterday morning that be bad been refused bis tools. A com mittee was appointed to go with him and make second effort to get his tools. On applying at the gate nearest to where his tools were located, he was informed that a man from the shops would come out for aa Interview. When this man came out from the shops, be stated that unless the carpenter would give him the key so that he might go into the shop and unlock the box and make an examination of its con tents, that be could not let him have his tools. Oa being questioned by the commit tee, this man stated that he had orders from Mr. Deveny to follow out the instruc tions thst he had Just related to them. The carpenter who owned the tools stated that be bad so objection to the bor beini ruiuiun u u permitted to go la When this proposition was refused him.

Special mention was made of Mrs. Sarah Green orgsnlier for the American Federa tion of Labor, who Is to speak tomorrow at 3 p. m. at Klpley park. Mrs. Green is reputed to have unequaled ability in put ting before the public the question of wages and working conditions that con fronts the working women of todar.

Superintendent Pratt Says Her ington Business Men Unfair. IS RESULT BF SHOP STRXE Authority to Make Change Given by General Manager. Matter Has Been Freely Dis cussed by Topeka Officials. On account of the strike, troubles which have developed at Herington, the Rock Island is considering seri ously a plan to move Its division of fices from that place" to Topeka. For nearly a week national guard troops have been protecting the company's property at that place, t At a meeting held In Herington this week, C. B. Pratt, division superinten dent, told a representative gathering of Herington business men, that the railroad company was being treated unfairly in connection with the strike. and that the division offices would be moved to Topeka unless conditions were changed. Authority to Make Change. Authority to make such a change has been authorized by General Man ager Beacom, Superintendent Pratt said, and he read telegrams from that official stating that in whatever action he might see fit to take for the main tenance of effective service on his di vision he would have the approval of his superiors. Superintendent Pratt said that em ployes of the company had been beaten up and kidnaped on the streets of Herington.. that landlords had or- dered railway employes in at least one case to vacate, and that his attempt to buy supplies for employes had met with refusal, and tnat ne naa oeen forced to obtain supplies from Hope, small town several miles west or Herington. He was positive, he said, that the company would win the strike and that troops were needed to pre vent trouble. No Co-operation Says Pratt. Superintendent Pratt referred to the opportunity he had to move his offices to Topeka when the station at Hering ton was burned several years ago, which was not accepted. In view of that consideraiton, he told the Her ington business men that he felt there should be some degree of sympathy and co-operation with the city's first interest, the Rock Island, in its efforts to serve the- -city and surrounding community. None of this had yet been extended, he said. The superintendent also made the statement that the division offices could be in Topeka as well as in Herington, and by the simple process of doubling the runs at Herington the men could live here and shops could handle repairs readily from this point. Since the meeting it Is reported that employes of the superintendent's of fice have been asked to express them selves on the proposed move and to state if they were willing to remain with the company if the change is made. Move Is Discussed Here. Officials at Topeka are silent on the matter except to admit the move was being freely discussed since the meeting at Herington. They point out that the division offices could be con veniently located here and that the business could be handled Just as ex peditiously. The third floor of the Rock Island building here is prac tically vacant and there is some un occupied space on the second floor. The offices of the Kansas division, were once located in Topeka. as weil as the office of the sreneral superin tendent, southwestern district, the of fice of the general manager, second district, and other offices at different times. News of the proposed move of the division offices from Herington, fol lows closely the report emanating from industrial court circles to the effect that the Rock Island may pre pare to do shop work here on account of the labor trouble encountered at Horton. 1,850 MEN IN TOPEKA SHOPS Superintendent Deveny Reports Gain of Twenty-five Employes. No local strike news of importance was contained in the official state ment of the Santa Fe this morning other than the assertion that the num ber of men at work in the shops con tinues to increase. W. D. Deveny, shop superintendent, stated that there were l-,850 men on dut" there this morning, a gain of twenty five -over the number at work rnoay.

"I can't eat my own pretty face, can I Ill have to soon or g-o hungry, tho, if I don't get work," she snapped at the man who chucked her under the chin as he flattered her and refused her work. "I didn't have any right to come to you with my troubles, Cora. I wasn't coming till I came in my auto with two men on the box. But I thought I wouldn't wait till then you'd be too old to know me." "I tell you, Cora, the good Lord knows I wanted that dinner he offered me. I hadn't had a real meal since I used to snitch things off the plates between the kitchen and the dining room at Miss Carter's boarding house.

La., shot into a tie for the lead in the national open golf champion ship here this afternoon, passing John Black, the dangerous "dark horse" of Oakland, Cal. -The cool deliberate Black, who, led at the end of the first day's play, com pleted his third IS holes in 75 strokes, which left him a card of 217. Jones and Melhorn, by great shoot ing, had come thru with 216 each, one stroke ahead. Jones in Fine Form. Melhorn and Jones completed the morning rounds in 72 and 70, re spectively. The work of the Atlanta star was superb. Jones and Melhorn, because of their wonderful shooting, would have been awarded first place were it not foe j the fact that John Black of Oakland, Cal., the "dark horse" who led the field yesterday, was a late starter and was yet to be heard from. Tven so, Jones and Milhorn had the leading scores at 54 holes up to 1:30 o'clock. It was' considered a certain ty, however, that Black would retain his lead. Jones went out today in 35 strokes and made the last nine holes in 35 also. Melhorn had a 39-33-72. Right on the heels of Jones and Melhorn wert Gene Sarazen of Pitts burgh, with a 220 for the 54 holes and Jock Hutchison of Glenview, with a 223. Hutchison came back in superb style after his disastrous performance of yesterday when he finished down in the list Black's Nerve Steady. Black went out in 36, but required 39 for the last nine of the 18 holes, which gave him a TS for the morning round. Walter Hagen of New Tork, who had 145 last night, came back with 74 for the morning effort, giving him Liia and. -putting him temporarily In third place. Black, hope of California, and con ceded to be the "dark horse," played a steady game. Here is Black's card. Out, A3 444 553 3- In, 455 444 445-39 75. Jim Barnes of Felham, N.

Had Mr. Hopkins investigated more thoroly the steps J was taking to cope with the situation as it- then existed, the state would have been saved the expense of this lawsuit." The court found that the mayor had been diligent in enforcing the liquor ordinances; that when he was notified of places where there was probable cause to believe the law was being violated, he reported them to the po lice with instructions to "clean them up;" that he did not conspire with I. M.

I About "Blitz" System. LtiXr 1 it must be said that a most disgraceful condition grew up under the adlminstratlon of the mayor dur ing his present term. It was such as to reflect seriously not alone upon his administration but upon the good name of the city of Topeka. It may be that such conditions have existed before in this and other cities which were not brought to light. Thru the efforts of the government prohibition officer, Mr. Wark, the attorney gen eral's office, and thru the efforts of the mayor, his city attorney and oth ers connected with the police depart ment, a wide publicity has been given to the methods which for a time pre vailed in making arrests, taking bonds and handling the police business. As a result a new police Judge and new chief of police have- been appointed and a considerable reform in the po lice department has taken place. Un doubtedly a more vigorous, effective and faithful enforcement of city ordi nances and management of the police department will follow, as It should.

CALL Y ellow Cab W PHON GET JUDGMENT IN (Continued from Pace One. I losophize upon certain phases of the case. In one of these I Instances ha Etated that the direct charges of cor ruptness against the mayor had in variably been made by. discharged po lice officers or someone openly op posed to him, and that the court had taken these facts into consideration in weighing testimony against that of the most reputable witnesses. Be Trusted Police Judge. The mayor had appointed a police judge,1" continued the opinion, "in whom he had the utmost confidence and trust: who was a former judge of the court of Topeka and who was highly recommended to him by mem bers of the bar of this county. The evidence shows that as soon as he learned of the irregularities In the dis position of eases and that many cases warn not prosecuted to a final con elusion and judgment properly en tered, he made a personal investiga tion and instructed the assistant city attorney as well as the city attorney himself, to investigate immediately and ascertain what disposition was being made of the cases. "He testified that when he became convinced that the association of Blits with the police judge was "unwhoie some' he immediately asked and re ceived the resignation of the Judge. It is true that from time to time while at the police station the defendant ex amined the police blotter to ascertain the arrests made that day. but this docket does not disclose the names of the bondsmen. When his suspicions Were aroused as to the proper disposi tion of the cases, he instituted an in vestigation and caused an order to be made to the effect that the offending bondsman should not be accepted upon any future bonds of offenders- "From the evidence the court can not say the defendant wilfully or in tentionally neglected to enforce the law or to correct the matters re ferred to. Notwithstanding the pur poses for which money may have been paid by law violators or any prom ises made by bondsmen therefore, or the hopes or expectations of the of fenders resulting therefrom, the evi dence does not show that, the offen ders were in fact 'protected' or granted immunity from prosecution, or that the officers did not raid or arrest theni thereafter. If immunity was purchased from tne bondsman it was not granted by the depart ment. In other words, sucn offenders did not receive value for their money. Penalised by Fine, Only. "It( is true that most of the offen ders were penalized by the imposition of a fine only, and that they were then paroled. The evidence does not disclose that the fines Imposed were with such regularity or under condi tions such as to indicate that a rev enue producing system was in effect, and that the arrests were not made promptly for the purpose of suppress ing crime. It is barely possible that the police judge may have been ac tuated in some instances at least by a human consideration that even minor offenders of the law should not be incarcerated in the' present city Jaii, for the condition of which neither the defendant nor the police department are wholly responsible." The opinion states that the court cannot find that any promises were made by solicitors for Corwine's cam paign fund to the effect that they would be protected It he was re-elected, asserting that "the evidence offered fails to connect the mayor with any protection or immunity promised." It also states that "while the mayor might have earlier discov ered the unlawful practices of extort ing money from those accused of of fenses tinder the city ordinances, or another ifmn with keener Insight or more experience in such matters might have done So, we believe the evidence warrants the finding that the mayor was reasonably diligent in con nection with this matter and that he did not act with a wrongful intent or in any way connive With the wrong doers or cendone offenses. Has Many DutJcA. "In this connection, some consid eration should be given to the fact that the duties of a mayor of a city of 60,000 citizens as imposed by the laws of this state, are very many. As Did in Twenty Minutes j it 1 WflBW:.' npiiiimiflftiipfl.lr'ii!' A YELLOW FOR SERVICE to the administration of the police de partment, the mayor had neeessarily to trast largely to his chief of police and police judge, in both of whom he had confidence in common with many citisens of Topeka. For this reason a Tone it is perhaps not to be wondered at that he proceeded with consid erable care in his investigation." About Clgaret Law. In regard to the clgaret law, whicti the state alleged that Corwine failed to enforce, the court found that "probably this law could have been enforced with rfTor vigor and effect, but no evidence was introduced even tending to- show that the mayor or the police department did not act upon the information which they had concerning such violations. The evi dence certainly does not show that any failure to act was caused by a wrongful or corrupt motive." The court found that no informa tion concerning the four or five crap games which it was testified were in dulged in had been conveyed to the mayor and that it could not be said that he designedly or wilfully neg lected to enforce the gambling law. Were Raided Many Time. Relating to immoral houses, which the state charged Corwine wilfully permitted to operate, the opinion says "The testimony related to approxi mately seven places. Several of the proprietors of such places testified in behalf of the state that they were conducting rooming houses. One ad mitted that she had been art-ested by the police and fined for operating a disorderly house. The evidence further showed that every place had been raided several times. The de fendants were not always arrested, due to the fact, the police officers re ported, that sufficient proof was not obtained on the raid on which to base a conviction. One witness for the state testified that she had operated a rooming house at one location for three months and was there raided by the police twice. She then moved to another location and stayed there a month, where she was raided twice by the police. She then moved to an other location and was arrested 'a great many times," and when the po lice found anything upon the raids she was arrested and penalized. An examination of the evidence shows that most of the places were raided by the police from three to six or seven times. From the evidence of fered, the court cannot say that these raids were prefunctory only and were not made in good faith-" Sid Not Know of Statutes. With regard to reporting violations of the liquor law to the county attor ney, the court found that the mayor did not know of the statute until it was called to his attention last Feb ruary by S. I, ishbrook, then as sistant city attorney, ana that he took tt up with Ralph O'Nei'l, city attor ney, who advised him he did not think it applied to the city of Topeka. The opinion states that "considerable doubt is created as to the duty of the mayor to report to the county attor ney," but that to Warrant the ouster of the mayor for failure to make the report in question "he must have misconducted himself in office or he must have willingly neglected to per form the duty enjoined upon him by the law of the state of Kansas." Judgment for Defendant, In closing, the opinion reads: "After a careful consideration of all the evidence presented in this case we are unable to reach the conclusion that the mayor wilfully misconducted himself in office or that he wilfully neglected to perform the duties en joined upon him as the mayor by the laws of Kansas, or that he was ac tuated by wrongful or corrupt mo tives, but we believe jt affirmatively appears that his conduct was charac terized by good faith.

On Wednesday morning, E. Martin Henning of Chicago, who has the work in charge, told the writer that everything was to b completed and the scaffolding to be removed within two days from that time. The central feature of these beauti ful decorations is Mr. Hennings paint ing of the Ascension of Christ, which fills the clear story wall spaces of three sides of the apse. Ordinarily the apsidal walls of a Gothic church Contain windows. Because the tech 'nlcal "east end" of Grace cathedral is actually the south end of the church, the- fierce hot light of the Kansas summer sun Would consequently stream into the chancel of the church from morning to night liad Windows been placed in the usual place, these windows Were purposely Omitted. The blank spaces thus left, form ad mirable places for a scheme ot deco ration like the one worked out. Apparently, the scene depicted rap resents Christ's entrance Into "Glory." In the central panel is the single fig ure of 'the "Redeemer." with out stretched hands, supported by a mass of clouds. Unfortunately the face has been hidden by the scaffold every time the writer has gone te look fit the work, but the pose and the propor tions of the figure appear to have the requisite grace and majesty appro priate to the "King or Glory" ap proaching in triumph, "The Everlast ing Gates," and at the same time there is the simplicity of the teacher and friend of mankind, as he bade fare well to his earthly companions and disciples. Mr. Henn!ngs Christ suggests in some ways the Christ in- Raphael's Transfiguration. But the artist as serts that it and all other figures in his painting are absolutely original and that all were painted from posed living models. In "each of the side panels are six adoring angels, five of them kneeling and one standing. The colors in the robes of the figures are exquisite. The dominating color is a rich rosy red which appear in several shades. There are also beautiful transparent greens and purples. The background of the picture to gether with the entire walls and the ceiling of the chancel, is painted clear sky blue, to represent the limit less heavens. The gold in th halos above the angels' heads and the white of the unpainted stone pillars, win dow frames and mouldings, all serve to break the somewhat monotonous expanse of blue. It is impossible to Judge of the general effect of the Work with the scaffold still in place, bat as matters stand, it would seem that a few touches of gold leaf around the soffits of the arches, as a border to some of the blue panels, would be a grateful enrichment. The Dudenslng Galleries of 46 Forty-Fifth street, New York, representa tives in America of the noted French landscape painter, Victor Charreton. have in contemplation the sending of an exhibition of Charreton's paintings thru the middle west, some time th;s fall. If they carry out their idea, it is to be hoped that Topeka may ar range to get in on the itinerary. According to the American Maga- sine of Art there is much activity along tne line of mural painting in the United States as the present tirrre. During the month Of June Garl Melchers and Frank Brangwin were both given, commissions td do mural paintings in the new Missouri- state capitol at Jefferson City. Mrs. H. Van Buren Magonigle has received a commission for murals m the great Liberty Memorial designed by her husband, which is to be erected in Kansas City. Missouri, at a cost of many millions of dollars. Edwin H. Blashfield, one of the world's great masters of mural paint ing, has just completed four mural paintings of enormous size, for the Detroit public library, also four large spandrels to bo executed in mosaic for the dome of St. Matthews church, Washington, D. C. Ezra Winter and Barry Faulkner have Just completed mural paintings representing Music, for the Eastman theater at Rochester, New Tork. Apparently there is less interest in mural painting in Europe at the pres ent time, especially in England, than there is in the United States. An as sociation was lately, formed 'in Eng land to promote in that particular branch of painting. Virginia City, Minnesota, a town of 16,000 population purposes to erect a city hall and recreation building to cost 1400,000. It is arranging with St. Paul, Minneapolis, DuJuth and other large towns for travelling arrt exhibitions, it possesses a symphony orchestra and an excellent municipal auditorium. What about Topeka, capital of Kan sas and city of 50,000 inhabitants. What kind of public buildings has it How about our city hall for beauty and adequate size? How about our city library building? Where is our much discussed municipal art gallery? In the twenty-eight months last past, according to a British authority, Americans have invested $20,000,000 in British art treasures. In the year 1920 alone, SI 0,108.231 was, expended by American buyers, and sales to our countrymen during the first five months of this year are said to have exceeded in value those for the en tire year just mentioned! Owing to the high taxes imposed by the British government On prop erty in general and works of art in particular, paintings, statuary and booksOf world renown, the treasured possessions of aristocratic English families for generations, are finding their way to the auction block in a constantly increasing stream. Amer icans seem to be the only people with money and inclination to purchase. The latest collection to be sold is the Burdett-Coutts collection. The Duveen Brothers,1 art collectors, purchased a small Raphael for 7,000 guineas, about 135,000. That well-known and charm ing painting by Sir Joshua Reynolds, "The Mop Cap," sold for 2,000 pounds, a little less than $10,000 at the usual rate of exchange. A portrait of Wil liam IV when Duke of Clarence, painted by Sir Thomas Lawrence, brought about $15,000 in American money. The Lady Greuse portrait by Romney sold for $19,000, and the world famous Raeburn portrait of Sir Walter Scott, with which every school boy Is familiar, was bought by M. Knoedler Sc. Company of New TsrK for $40,000. There was but one noted instance of an Englishman stepping ia to rescue one of bis country's W6rks of art. That man was Lord Cowdray, and the picture he was determined should not leave the country was a portrait of William Pitt, by Hoppner. Lord Cowdray purchased the portrait for $3,000. V However -regrettable this transfer of the world's ayt treasures may b; from some point3 of view, it is ac complishing at least -one great End notable good. Most of these great paintings as well as the beautiful and valuable books being sold at the same time, will now be -accessible to the public and to scholars. The former owners have kept them jealously guarded from public gaze, selfishly denying the Wbrld at large the gratification of enjoying their beauty or profiting by their value. With most American Collectors this is not the way. They seem to have a higher and better idea of possession. Here, scholars are not only permitted, but invited to study the books and manuscripts to private libraries) and most private art galleries are thrown open to the general public, at mora or less regular intervals.

Kansas City, July 15. A decline in hog prices, which, in the better grades, amount ed to 40 to 50 cents and la the lower grades 60 to 80 cents, marked the livestock market at Kansas City the last weex, according to a summary issued today by the United States department ,ef agriculture. Hog receipts were around 43,000 as against 37, 930 the previous week and 30,674 -the cor responding week a year ago. Decline on the better grades came for th most part Thursday and Friday, but for the others began earlier in the week. It culminated in a Bevere break Friday. The railroad strike was a disturbing factor In every branch ef the trading, altho so far practically all roads are delivering livestock almost oa normal schedule, enly one road not accepting snything. Better grades of Bteers snd yeaning rat tle hit new high levels, but there was some weakness on most grassers and -some of the short feds. Medium weight steers reached $10.30. Altho lambs opened lower, the market soon recovered and at one time sales were higher than at Chicago. Best lamb la load lots went at $13.76, a small bunch scor ing $13.85. The review gave total cattle receipts for the week as 42,000 against 24304 the prev ious week and 25.275 a year ago. Calves, not counted in these figures, totalled 9,500 against 4,126 a week ago and 8.26S a year afire. Th week's run of sheep wa 19,000 eiiiiiiiiiiiiisiiniiiisiiiiiiuiiiii m The Prudential Trust Go.

Previous to his departure, his wife gave him various instructions as to what to do, what not to .do and when to do it. One of the things that he was not' to do was to waste his time writing home descriptions -of the scenery and various things which he was seeing. Several days ago the family received a aard from Malta, on the back of which the man -on our town had written: "Have seen many sights, pome new and some old." Now the family is wondering just what it is that dad saw at Malta.

Sun derland, assistant secretary sf the Chamber ot Commerce. The aviation committee, of the Chamber of Com merce has answered a government questionnaire regarding the establish ment of a squadron here and the army officers have received the matter favorably. The squadron would be a part of the reserve units of the flying corps being established over the country. It is planned' to establish one in Kan sas in the near future as a part of the twelfth aero district. The district ad jutant with headquarter at Omaha is also favorable to the move of estab lishing the squadron at Topeka. The squadron would mean the bring ing of eight or ten army planes to Topeka, the construction of hangars, and the bringing' of pilots- and me chanics. Two of the essentials for the securing the squadron is the leasing of a landing field to the government without cost and having a number of experienced aviators residing in the city. The members of the aviation com mittee who are attempting to bring the squadron to Topeka are: Harry Buff, Jack- Kritzer, Harry Imes. W. D. Wallace, E. N. Sunderland. They have been appointed deputy sheriffs to police the municipal landing field. DEATHS AND FUNERALS Word has ln received Jn Topeka of the death, Wednesday, of Mr. Fa rah J.

Fearing that' an end to the present nation-wide coal strike might bring a bout an embargo on railroad cars of I the open top style, for use other than j in transporting coal. State Highway Engineer M. W. Watson has issued a I warning to all federal aid road con tractors in the state urging them to I lay in large supplies of materials in order tnaj, in event such a car snort age should occur, road work will not be halted. Following ia a copy of Mr. Watson's letter to the contractors: "Allow me to call, your attention to the conditions existing with regard to rail shipments of materials. Indica tions from reports submitted by the United States bureau of public roads very clearly show that there is danger of a car sportage on the termination of the coat strike. Were it not for the coal strHce at the present time, there would be a car shortage. Considerable pressure will probably be brought to bear as soon as .the coal strike is over to restrict the use of open top cars to the shipment of coal. In view of this .situation, we would suggest that all contractors make preparations to se cure and store as large a reserve sup ply. of road building materials as they can possibly obtain. You undoubtedly realise the difficulty we have had in the past when. a car shortage existed, and I hope you will take advantage of an- advance warning." I supporting his contention that termination of the coal strike prob ably will bring about a car shortage, Mr. Watson produced figures com piled by the American Railway asso ciation, showing that in March, 1922, Just before the strike began, the to tal surplus, of all kinds of cars in the country -was only 2U0.0Q0. aoDroxi- j mately 7" 0u0 of which were open top i cari. He compared tnese' figures with a total surplus in March, 19-21, of 500,000 of all kinds of cars, about half of which were coal and otner.open top KtvleS. F.vOn Kmcii Vr. ,-.1 ofnlr. j began, Mr. Watson said, the total sur plus for the country has reached only 375,000, about 230,000 of which are open tops. The surplus in October, last year, he said, dropped to 75,600 for all kinds of cars, 30,000 of which were open, and "it is reasonable to assume that the great demand for coal cars which naturally will follow the ending of the coal strike will soon eat up the comparatively small sur plus available at this time." V EVA, LAMBERT TQLEAVE "Queen of Bottoms" Will Bid Good bye to Topeka oon. Topeka w.ill bid Eva Lambert, alias Eva Verity, known as "queen of the bottoms," goodby within the next day or two, according to a decision handed down Friday by Judge Paul Heinz in the cfturt of Topeka. In the mean time, J. H. Lambertson, negro night jailer at the county jail, is looking for a new Job. It all came about because Chester Hatton, negro, now being held in the county jail pending sentence to Hutchinson for disposing of a mort gaged automobile, 1st one of Eva's ad mirers. Sheriff Robert Miler became suspicious that all was not just right in regard to Hatton. So Thursday night he instituted a little private de tective work. After a long vigil he saw Hatton, who was supposed to be securely behind the bars, walk out of the jail door and cross the street. It was midnight. The negro walked back and forth, apparently watching for someone. Presently she appearel. At that time Sheriff Miler did not know who it was, but he seized them both. It turned out to be the Lambert woman. Miler took them both to jail, and then swore out a warrant charging her with having immoral relations with Hatton. Investigation, according to Sheriff Miler, revealed that this was the sec ond midnight tryst that Lambertson had allowed Hatton to keep with Mrs. Verity outside the jail. On another occasion she had gone inside, the of ficers said. Lambertson was discharged imme diately. In the court of Topeka Mrs. Verity pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined J100 and costs, making a total of Jill. 35. She paid it. But the most drastic part of it was that Judge Heinz handed her an ultimatum that she should either leave the city for good or go to the women's farm at Lansing for six months. Eva chose the former course, and Judge Heinz gave her a reasonable time to sell her property and straighten up her affairs preparatory to departure. USE 01X5 AND PfeLICEliOSSIP.

State Journals New York Letter BY LUCY fEANSE PRICE BY LUCY JEANNE PRICE. 1 New York. July 15. Whatever sins one may commit, there ,is always iett the virtue of frankness. So believes Michael Thorry. For instance, there has been a slump in the bootlegging business for some inexplicable reason. And that happens to be Michael's oc cupation. So when he was arraigned in police court the other day for fail ure to support his wife and children, he. just explained matters to the judge, frankly. "I make my living by trad ing in liquor," said he. "Business has been so poor lately that I haven't been able to do the right thing at home. He added that he would make good o.i his family obligations "as soon as bootlegging picks up." The judge was pretty unsympathetic, in spite of the commendable honesty of the plea. There are a good many kinds of charity, ranging from the woman who prides herself ,on giving the starving of the crty as much as she pays for two theater tickets, up to the scrub woman who does the housework for her sick .neighbor when her own day's work is finished and she is fagged out In every muscle. Solomon Schoen baum knows the real kind of charity. I believe. Mr. Schoenbaum is a pros perous manufacturer in the upper end of this city, and when he sailed for his native town pf Czernowitz, in Gal licia, several months ago, he took a large amount of money with him. When he discovered the destitution there, he began to unload his letters of credit. He bought clothing for four hundred people; then for one hundred more. By-this time, he was so nearly 'broke -that he was able to scrape up just enouch-jnoney for second class passage home. But he looked happy when he landed in New York. Next year., he is going back to Gallicia with more money.. The sophisticated show scorn of those of us who make the weather a topic of conversation. And yet, after all, what is more important, as an .influence on the drift of our lives? I was talking to a girl of the Broad way type the other day the blase. town-bred, type that thinks life has to be. a dizzy whirl in order to be worth while. "Phat do you think I am do ing tonigTit?" she exclaimed. "I am going rowing in Central park! Can you imagine nything so juvenile and rural? A new man asked me and I was so surprised at the idea that I accepted, and honestly, I'm looking forward to it. I believe maybe Id like the 'simple pleasures' after all, if I gave myself a chance at them." I agreed with her aad I was glad some man had -come alcng who suggested rowing in Central park instead of jazzing in Central Palace. The next day I ran into her again. "How's the lake?" I asked. "Lake! Say, how could I go on any lake in that downpour. No, we had to change our plans and go to a cabaret. Instead. I guess I'll stick to iBroadway. Then you don't have to worry about the weather!" We look upon the days of the "wild -west when men wore firearms and were ready to shoot on a moment's no tice, as belonging to the hazardous days of old! Well, how peaceful and effete does -this sound? In the en virons of greater New York, we are having to build an armor plated truck, equipped with rifle loopholes and pipes for spreading tear gas, for the protection of banks and other institu tions which ship large sums of money. That seems to go back even farther than frontier days. A new Fred Stone piece will follow "Good Morning, Dearie," when that musical comedy finally looses its hold on the Globe theater, and Llsie Janis, in "The Bunch and Judy," another Anne Caldwoil-Jerome Kern musical comedy is another production soon to be presented by Charles Dillingham. So far, those are the only new pro ductions forecast for presentation earlier than August, but in that .month, we are promised a new deluge of them, and of all kinds. William K. Vanderbilt has -given the use of a camp on his estate at Great Neck. Long Island, to the Jacob A. Riis Neighborhood House. Two hundred and fifty children will visit it during the summer. V All old adages to the contrary, there is at least one group of New Yorkers who make tleir hay while the rain pours and thus save up for a sunny day and picture- shows. They are the boys who rush to the subway ex its when the drops begin to fall, laden with umbrellas, which they will rent you for whatever your gratitude sug gests your paying escorting you to your destination and then tearing back with their equipment to grab another person-afraid-of-the-rain. They crowd around every exit at the homecoming hours and gather in- a good day's in come. This past month was such a deluge time, that the enterprising onea invested in raincoats in addition to umbrellas and found an appreciative and generous-paying clientele among the women who had gone out in their summer clothes, certain that "it couldn't possibly rain, again this week."

She still carries the gui. that Buffalo Bill gave her many years ago, and her husband still travels along to be shot at. For forty years. she has been shooting at him within the ring and never has he been hurt. Her hair is silver now, and the other day she was wearing a black dress with an old-fashioned lace "choker" collar. Buto me, Annie Oakley will always be a dashing girl in a buckskin suit and sombrero. You can get free taxi rides In New Tork every once in a while if you happen to be strolling in the right vicinities at Ihe rush hours.

And some of them will take you for a block or two any time if you will let them drive up in front of a hotel with you safely enconced" within. Flaming red coats may bedeck our Wall street messenger boys in the near future. Bankers and brokers, having always gone to the other extreme and dressed their 'messengers as incon spicuously as possible in order not to make them targets for highwaymen, are now said to be wondering whether the opposite policy might not be a good Idea. It would be difficult for a messenger boy -not to have the un official protection of the hosts of paasersby, they argue, all the way along his route if his calling and re sponsibility were so clarioned. Also it would be difficult for him to become a runaway unless, of course, he thought to take his coat off before starting to run. Junk men must weigh their bells hereafter in this city before they ring them. A great many theatrical folk reside in the district of Police Cap tain Thomas Donahue of the West Forty-Seventli street station. They like to sleep late ir, the morning; and they complained to the captain that th junk men woke them up with their clanging bells. Captain Donohue got out his book ot ordinances to see if Ad could find any relief for them there. and discovered an ordinance over 100 years old limiting the weight of bells tq be rung in the city streets to six ounces and not a shade over that, so he sent a polic man out with a pair of scales and gathered in a whole flock of the lawbreakers.

BOOKSWiU CLOSE FRIDAY Topekans Have Not Taken Oppor tnnity to Register at Night. Persons living in districts taken into the city during the last year must reg ister in order to vote at the primary election August 1, according to Miss Etta Covell, city clerk. Only a few persons from such territories have registered. There are a number of candidates for precinct committeemen who will not be eligible, says Miss Covell. Some have failed to register for the election since they have moved and others have mc;ed since July 1, which auto matically bars them from voting. Voters must have lived in the same ward for at least thirty days before the election in order to vote.

It is the view of President Harding and his principal cabinet advisers that 1 the board cannot yet be said to have failed In the first real acid test tnat I, has been applied to its ability to main tain industrial peace on the railroads. t Administration leaders made it clear 1 today that for the present.

"I can't. Gloria Swanson stole it from me, and I think she slipped it Into Lila Lee's vanity case." "The class is dismissed," declares George Melford sternly. 1 Such is likely to be a scene any day now anions the famous screen stars of Hollywood as a result of the organization of tfte Paramount Stock Company and school, the members of which Include nearly all the stnrs and leading players of r-s. fitmdoni.. Many of the most famous directors and some of the players are instructors. The Paramount Stock Company was organised in the Lasky Studio ty Adolph zukor and Jesse L. Lasky, president and vice presi dent, respectively, of the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation, thebls pest film company in the world. The object of the stock company Is to Insure Paramount Pictures casts of players of established ability rnd reputation and also to provide a reservoir of talent trained ac cording to the best traditions of the screen. "The Paramount Stock Com pany," said Mr. Zukor, "is the first effort In the history of motion pic tures to develop motion picture ac tors In purely motion picture tech niqne. 'It also is the first time mo tion picture players have an op portunity to broaden their technical education so that their traininc may embrace a knowledge of all phases of picture production. Many Students Famous Unlike the student body of most schools, the students in the Para v mount Stock Company are persons .who already have established repu tations in their life work of acting for the screen. Therefore, the pur pose of this organization is no.t to instruct in the fundamentals of -screen art, except as such instruc tion may correct minor faults, but to broaden the working knowledge of the members of the stock conv pacy to the end that they may tn- crease their versatility and have a wiuer outlook on their art." Among the Paramount stars are such well known players as Gloria Swanson, Rodolph Valentino, Betty Compson, Elsie Ferguson, Thomas Meighan, Wallace Held, Dorothy Dalton, Agnes Ayres, Jack Holt, Bebe Daniels. May McAvoy, Wanda Hawley and Mary Miles Minter. Others in the stock company are Lila Lee, Leatrlce Joy, Lois Wilson, David Powell, Conrad Nagel, Theo dore Roberts, Sylvia Ashton, Wal ter Long, Charles Ogle, Clarence Burton, Kathryn Williams, Ethel Wales, Helen Dunbar, Anna Q.

Directors and stars and alt other members of the company are re quired to attend a certain number of classes. The directors who are, acting as instructors are Cecil B. DeMille, in general charge of the stock company; William De Mille, George Melford, Penrhyn Stanlaws, George Fitzmaurice and James Cruze. Other directors who are to assist with ir advice and counsel are:' Irvin Wlllat, John S. Robertson, Sam Wood, Joseph Henabery, Alfred E. Green, Philip E. Rosen and Paul Powell.'. The technical phases of the in struction are divided into two broad branches, physical training and stage training. There is also a de partment of creative effort sub divided for study of the following: Photodramatlc analysis, photodra-ma-theory and practice, photo-comedy, scenario and motion picture history. "Under the heading of ex presslonal branches there nre classes in physical expression, life study and pantomime. Director Are Teacher The Instructors are the roost fa mous men In their lines. William DeMille, well known as a dramatist before he entered pictures, lec tures on the theory and practice of pbotodrama; Penrhyn Stanlaws," famous arjist before he ever be came a motion picture director, discusses pictorial values; George Melford, one of the oldest directors in the business, tells ef the history of pictures; Theodore Kosloff, who spent a number of yfars In the bal lets, of the Imperial Theatres In Moscow and Petrograd, teaches dancing, carriage -and" fencing; physical culture is taught by no less an authority than a former middleweight champion. Kid Mc Coy. There are. eight other classes. The one In costume theory is con ducted by Paul Iribe, formerly de signer for Poiret, who designes the costumes in Cecil B. DeMUle's Paramount productions. There is one in architecture and interior decoration conducted by Max Par ker and another in cinematography lighting by Alvin Wykoff. George Fitzmaurice is In charge of the teaching on screen acting, and Cecil B. DeMille imparts his theories osr the art of direction of large productions. Those masters of makeup, George Fawcett and Theodore Roberts, dis cuss this phase of their art and demonstrate Its technique. Just how laughs are worked into screen productions is explained by James Cruze, instructor in photo comedy when the school is in ses sion and director of Paramount productions at other times. Mr. Lasky Explains Rules Mr. Lasky describes the emphasis placed in recent news dispatches on the strict rules of the stock com pany. "The" rules were first suggested by the players," he states, "and their enforcement is t be aided by them. In fact, there Is a players' board of control for this purpose which Is made up of Conrad Nagel, Lois Wilson, Thomas Meighan, Syl via Ashton and Theodore' Roberts. The rules governing the school necessarily must be strict." They are as-follows I 1. To protect the good name of their profession the members of the Paramount Stock Company have suggested and adopted these rules of conduct and work. Therefore, infringement of these rules not only works harm to yourself as an actor and an individual, but it also works injury to your associates. Strict adherence to these rules is demand- ed of every, member of the com pany, and it is also requested that members, by precept and example, strive to have other members of the company observe them. 2. The basis of, all good work is good health. Therefore, members of the Paramount Stock Company should guard their health as their most precious asset "and avoid any conduct or circumstances that will put their health in periL- .Proper exercise, sufficient sleep, fresh air, proper diet all these are essential to good health. Avoid alcoholic stimulants and late hours. If you are a woman, nothing can desty your good looks so quickly; if yon pre a man, nothing can incapacitate you so much for the arduous work of the studio. 8. Any member of the Paramount Stock Company who fails to main tain 75 per cent standing In classes. attendance, and general deportment ia liable to expulsion from the com pany. 4. Although the stock in trade ot the members Tof the Paramount Stock Company, is their ability to portray their emotions, the place for such" portrayal is on the screen and not in the studio. Tempera ment is a valuable asset, but tem perament out vof control is a nui sance to yourself and everybody about you. Bursts of so-called temperament In the studio will not be tolerated. We are all grown men and women, and our actions should be governed by sanity and common courtesy. 5. No member of the company will be allowed to make a personal appearance at a theatre or public entertainment without permission of the director of the Stock Com pany. 6. Gifts and gratuities to any In structor or officer of the Paramount Stock Company, or anybody else connected with, the studio, are strictly forbidden. 7. Members of the Stock Com pany will be expected to play any part assigned to them. Success can be based only on good work, and ability ro do, good work can be demonstrated as well In a small bit as in a leading role. Therefore, never slight your work, no matter how inconsequential your rol seem. 8. Be careful in the chol your associates outside the studio. RemeThber: "A man Is known by the company he keeps." A woman le may oiCe) of is known by the company shi avoids. 0. Do not confine your outlook on life to the activities of the Etadlo. Broaden your viewpoint. Rend good books read a good newspaper -and keep abreast of developments in politics, literature, economics, art. Remember that your mental ity and your tastes shine through your eyes on the screen. 10. The motion picture, because of Us great distribution, gives you. popularity, wealth and a great ca reer. But. by vTrtue of thjls very distribution, it also brings enor mous responsibilities. The motion picture has made you an- intimate friend of countless people whom you will never see. You are their friend, nevertheless, and it must be your constant care never to do anything or say anything that will betray the confidence these millions of motion picture- lovers have placed in you. Therefore, members of the Paramount Stock Company are expected to avoid places, peo ple, circumstances and conduct which might in any way bring themselves and the motion picture profession into disrepute. Any member failing strictly to observe this rule Is liable to Instant dis missal -from the company. To Develop Personalities Every effort Js to.be made by. means pf this stock company to develop the personalities of the members, and those fostering -the idea fully, expect it to become a great reservoir for the moving pic ture stars of the future. All of them will have the benefits of th-j training of masters along a num- ber of lines and this with whatever special individual talents they can also bring' forth will make tho Paramount actors and actresses the most finished of their kind, it Is believed. That mere technical excellence, however, is incidental to the ideals behind this new movement may be gleaned from the following quota tion" from the Paramount execu tives' ideas on creative effort "The subjects in this department must be dealt with on the broad- est educational lines. Expression must ever depend on the very char- acter of a mart To increase his power of expression it Is necessary to stimulate the imagination, the sense of beauty, and sympathy, ns well as to quicken the Intellect; the sympathy must be real and deep and the Imagination must respond fully to the appeal of beautiful and noble sentiments; the Intellect must be the quick and ready serv ant of the spiritual Impulse; it is of no avail to attempt to force a stunted personality to do herole work the emotion must be enough to compel the actor to give expres sion and to abandon himself ns thngh be 'were but an instrument played upon by the spiiitual In Btructlen. for here Is the Tery es sence of a liberal education." J LK IT 5 CENTS! Topeka Hasn't Found It Yet, But Other Cities Hay. i J Average Price Per Quart Over State, However, Is 10 Cents. Lawrence, Kan.. July 1. Milk at the old time price of S cents a sjuart is again a reality in Kansas. A ques tionnaire sent out by John O.

Chairman Cummins stated today. The first, effort of congress. Sen ator Cummins said, probably would be to amend the law so as to guarantee a fair living wage to railroad workers later but probably not, during the present strike. He said an efffcrt would be made to provide penalties for violation of or ders of the railway labor .board.

A re cent survey on why farmers leave the farm, shows that 2 per cent -of them gave as a major reason, the city of fers better opportunity to educate their children. This assertion was made today by Dean E. L. Holton. of the summer school at the Kansas State Agricul tural college, in an address at the summer school conference of students, rural and small town superintendents and rural leaders. The conference was concluded at noon today after a two days' session at the college here.

Holton. "The farm boys and girls of Kansas do not have an educational opportun ity equal to that given to the city boys and girls. This is driving the farmers and farm women to the cities. "A recent study on why farmers leave the farm shows that 2 per cent of them gave as a major reason, the city offers a better opportunity to educate their children. No nation can stand permanently that which drains its best blood from the soil. "The consolidation of all the one room schools into community schools is the solution of the highest educai iionai problem in Kansas.

i I! IF k f Jn State Politics ONLY. TV0 WEEKS Candidates for State Offices Putting In Best Licks Now. Little Time to Eat or Sleep Much Work to Do. FIFTY-SEVEN ON 3 TICKETS Kansas Voters Seem To Be Only Slightly Concerned. High Taxes and Low Prices Keep Politicians Worried. BTA.L SHULTZ. With Just two weeks In which to clone up their campaign and prepare for the primary verdict, fifty-seven cand'datea for state office on three tickets Republican, Democrat and Socialist are preparing to make their big strategy more. Candidates for contested state offices as well as five disputed congressional jobs will find little time in which to eat or sleep during the final two weeks. Not in the history of the state wide primary law in Kansas has there been so much concern regarding results. Neither has there been such a heavy field of randldatcs for nominations at the hands of the, Republican party. In no previous campaign in Kansas hava the votera ajTpeared so lightly con cerned or bothered the candidates so much with their mystery talk. ScTen for G. O. "P. Governor. Seven candidates for the Republi can governorship nomination and three in the Democratic primaries break all previous records. Two years ago the Democrats had a four cornered fight for the gubernatorial nomlnat on and in 1918 Governor Allen was nominated In a field of four. Those year have stood as rec ords in state politics in Kansas. The farmer rote ia giving the poli ticians greatest concern. Hut it Isn't the only trouble. Organized tabor is the source ot no small amount of worry in several camps. See Trouble Alicatl. Recently the official farmer publi cations have given the political lead ers a scare by demanding that one of their own people be nominated gov ernor. The fact that W. P. Lambert son, Republican, and J. M. Davis. Democrat, are the only farmers in the race makes a bothersome situation. If on wins and the other loses the wise men in pontic see trouble ahead. Returns from' the rural -districts during the last few months have not indicated great cheer. The high taxes and low farm prices have kept the town politicians worried. In the early shifting and shuffling for positions In thi. Republican gubernatorial fight, the big play seemed to be to divide the farmer vote. Now that it may have been divided, the, party leaders would appreciate some formula for bringing- the votera together in No vember. Only Two Farmers In. Only twice have the farmers Uad one of ttyeir own people in the gover nor's choir. That was when Glick and I.eedy were elected. Each was retired alter one term. So th! farm ers 'have really had four years in the saddle during nearly sixty-two year3 of-statehood. This situation and tho refrains which come from the farm districts haven't made the town poli ticians a hit happy. The fact that at this particular time the Democrat farn er vote seems rather well estab lished behind Davis hasn't brought joy to several" Republican headquarters. With only two weeks for final worry th' labor situation might give far mere encouragement. Tom McNeal has made a big bil for the radical vote, both in the towns and- rural dis tricts. Fred Knapp. former state auditor, also looka for a portion of this vote, and the other day Joe Dol ley took an hour off to tell the shop strikers that they couldn't have a more sympathetic friend than Stubbs., The next day the message was sent' from the Stubbs headquarters to the effect that the farmers with their grain and stock to ship might hav the moon with Stubbs in the gover nor's chair. A Muddled Situation. It is all a muddled situation. Five candidates want Republican nomina tions for the two supreme court posi tions. There are five candidates for attorney general, six for superinten dent of insurance, three for superin tendent of Instruction and contests for secretary of state and state auditor. Topeka Is loaded down with can didates. With her two United States senators already entrenched in tVash ington, the capital city is now looking for practically all the state house places as well as Congressman Dan Anthony's Job. With the primary two weeks away, there are evidences of a swat Topeka candidates" move by the voters. ,Te Work Ovrrtlrrm. Every campaign headquarters will work overtime next week. They will direct the flooding of tne state with home crown endorsements and soft words regarding troublesome situa tions. Few speeches are being made by the candidates. To date .the fight has been largely a handshaking, press bu reau struggle for votes. The mad scramble to get the voters herded in the right direction ought to reach the fever stage next week. AG BOARD PLANS EXHIBIT. vTllI Give Display at Fairs Over State This Fall. A detailed exhibit ia Being planned by the state board of agriculture for showing at state and district fairs in Kansas this season. Secretary J C Mohler of the board said today that the booth will be shown at the Kan sas Free Fair at Topeka, September It to It: the Stat Fair at Hutchin son. September 1 to J2; the district fair at Lamed. September 17 to 19, and the Russell fair. October 3 to The feature of the agricultural board's exhibit at the Lamed fair. Secretary Mohler said, will be the grain grading demonstration. This will be, held In co-operation with the I'nited States bureau of markets, which will stage such demonstrations at fairs thruout the state this fall. Because Larned is centrally located in the big Kansaa wheat belt, the secre tary said, the- grain grading feature will be given particular attention there. This feature of the board's show, however, will be on at the other fairs also. Railroad News of Week CHAS. i CHANGE IN LIVESTOCK AGENTS Rock Island Ccnds I. S. Brooks to Chicago A. Peterson at K. C F. S. Brooks, who has been ap pointed general livestock agent of, the Rock Island Lines with headquarters in Chicago, has been In the employ f that company many years, having served under H. W. Morrison, now as sistant freight traffic manager, when the latter was general freight agent of the Little Rock Memphis rail way. A. Peterson, who baa been chos en assistant general livestock agent at Kansas City, first entered the Rock Island service In 1893 as messenger at Council Bluff Iowa. Mr. Brooks entered railway service with the G. C. S. F. railway at Houston, Texas, as expense bill clerk in the local freight office, advance, thru successive steps to livestock agent of the same road at Fort Worth, Texas, and finally to general livestock agent at Kansas City, in 1909. Mr. Brooks then went with the Santa Fe in a similar capacity, but in 1917 he served as manager of the stockyards department for Swift Co., in Chi cago, and during the recent war wa assistant director of transportation to the food administration. Mr. Brooks enjoys a national acquaintance among livestock owners and operators in thu industry. Mr. Peterson, who Is 44 years old, first served the Rock Island when 14 years old. He serred as clerk for the Rock Island at Chlckasha and at Kansas City, later being advanced to foreman at the Kansas City ware house, then assistant freight agent at Fort Worth, and general agent at Amarillo. During the war he served In the quartermaster's department, re. turning with the rank of captain. Oa his return, he was assigned to Ama rillo, in 1919, where he served as di vision freight and passenger agent of the Rock Islind until his present ap pointment as assistant general live stock agent at Kansas City. GO DOWN TO THEIR RANCH One In Grand Canyon Over a Mile Below Earth's Surface. In a circular issued this month. J. W. Black, passenger traffic manager of the Santa Fe system, calls atten tion of prospective tourists to "Phan tom Ranch" which is located more than a mile below he surface of the earth in Grand Canyon National park. This unique little rancn. occupying several acres alongside Bright Angel creek and walled in on two sides by templed rocks thousands of feet high, is about half a mile beyond the sus pension bridge across the Colorado river, where Bright Angel canyon opens into the granite gorge. "It is the deepest down of any canyon ranch in tho world." says Black, in the circular, "nothing like it anywhere else," The circular also describes one, two and three day trips which the Santa Fe has planned to Phantom Ranch and other places of interest along the canyon. PORTER TICKLES THE STRINGS. C. E. Williams Takes Prizes on Guitar, Mandoln and Banjo. C. F. Williams, for several years porter on the Rock Island's Golden State Limited trains, is gaining con siderable fame as a musician. During the past two months Williams took first prise in a. guitar contest at rsew Orleans, first prise in a mandolin con tent in an Francisco, and first in a banjo contest at Atlantic City. Williams occasionally takes one of his stringed instruments with him and- runes up for the benefit ot the pas sengers. During the past aiv weeks the superintendent of the Pullman company has kept Williams a the Chicago terminal giving lessons to other porters on these three instru ments The Pullman company has started a movement to teach all of its por ters to sing and play. FREIGHT MOVEMENT INCREASE In May Santa Fe Had Gain of 10 Per Cent Over Last Year. The total number of carloads of all "kinds of revenue freight loaded on all Santa Fe lines during May, 1922, was lzi.ibs, compared with 107.884 dur ing the same month of the preceding year, an increase of 13,27b. or 10.95 per cent. The figures are as follows: 1022 9.7tXi .4sn 41K fi.!il 17.51X1 2.478 72,081 Stock Drain Lumber Perishable OH foul Other freight Total 121,159 A MILLION NEW CARS The following has been prepared and Issued for publication by tho safety section, of the. American Rail way association: Considerably more than a million new automobiles were licensed In the United States last year. No wonder we sea shoals of new cars on the streets and highways every day. The serious problem, in connection with the operation of automobiles, is chance-taklnc at railroad grade cross lngs. Ia spite of the frightful .mis haps reported each day. there ia only a slight checking of the 1 evil. The only known rmedy is to everlastingly keep on urging drivers to observe this precaution: When you drive near railroad tracks that are to be crossed. Think of Tains of Cars; right there. on tne tracks, is the only place you will find any. With such thoughts in your mind. yon will be preapred for any emer gency. In s, majority of instances, there will be no train near enough to hinder you. but DON T trust to j time! If you trust to luck, you are not giving yourself and your passen gers a fair deal. A professional gambler will bet almost anything, but hs never wagers his life. .Ha might lose a lot of -money onceand then re coup his. loss In another venture. But every one of us know thataif a man loses his life he is going to stay dead. That man who was killed at a cross ing yesterday, had no desire to die. There were mo end of things to make life worth .vf-ile. The man simply followed in the steps of thousands who made the mistake o" yielding to a quick impulse of trying to beat a train over a crossing. Sober second thought would have saved him; so we close this litt.-e appeal with a solemn warning that now Is the time to Call a Halt, and CROSS CROSSINGS CAUTIOUSLY'. W. LANE V Missouri Pacific workmen have been testing the ground for a new round house at Topeka, and actual construc tion work on the new improvements, which will also Include a new turn table, is expected to start soon. Altho the movement of canteloupes from the Imperial Valley, Cal-, usu ally drops off about July li. this year's crop ripened a trifle late and shipments continue heavy. Rock Island officials say. From 100 to S60 carloads are passing thru STopeka daily. The New Tork Central has adopted a new style of local card ticket, to be used on all divislona of the railroad. The distinctive features are the pro visions of a conductor's check attached to the ticket, and the use of colors to distinguish one division of the road from another. "Rocky Mountains Unlimited" Is the title of an illustrated booklet just issued by the passenger department of the Rock Island. It contains a"hu man story" of a trip thru the Colorado Rockies, written by a Chicago man who saw the mountains for the first time -on this trip. W. G. Morgan, assistant engineer of the Kansas City Southern, with head quarters at Pittsburg, Kan., has been promoted to the re-established position of- the division engineer of the Kan sas City Terminal division, with head quarters at Kansas City. The appoint ment was effective July 1. Arthur "w. Large, of Chicago, has been appointed agricultural agent of the Rock Island Lines to succeed the late .Alexander Jackson, with whom Mr. Large was associated for seeral years. The appointment has been an nounced by L. M. Allen, vice president and passenger traffic manager. The Santa Fe. in conjunction with the city of Kansas City, Kan., is pre paring, plans for a south approach and main section of the Goddard ave nue viaduct, at that place. The con struction program for the north ap proach has not been completed, pend ing negotiations with other railroads. A number of years ago H. V. Mudge, former general manager of the Santa Fe, purchased from his brother a tract of non-productive land com prising four hundred acres near Grid ley, Kan.. -It hardly seemed worth the taxes. Now oil has been discovered on the land and it is a different story. Two productive wells have been de veloped en the Mudge tract. Twelve carloads of silk, valued at four and a half million doara recenty arrived in Chicago from San Fran cisco. The consignment was one of the largest and most valuable silk shipments that has ever crossed the continent, the freight charges amount ing to approximately 967,000. The train was moved from San Francisco to Chicago by the Santa Fe in sixty two hours and thirty minutes. More than fifty boys, all under age, employed in the general offices of the Rock Island at Chicago, crowded into a- room in the' La Salle street station recently to listen to a talk by Presi dent J. E. Gorman on "How to Win Promotion." and on the value of thrift. Mr. Gorman's personal interest In the welfare of the younger employes of the Rock Island is well known, as it is from these that future railway officials are recruited. WANT .TO SEE THE FIESTA? Big Event for Tourists, This Year Will Open September 4. The annual Fiesta, always an im portant event for Santa Fe tourists, will be held at Santa Fe, N. M., this year commencing September 4. The first day will be the celebration, in elaborate pageantry, of the Great Santa Fe Trail's Centennial, 1822 1922. a pageant which will be im rlvaled. The second day will be De Vargas day with ceremonies similar to those of former years, but more elaborately appointed from the standpoint of re ligipus settings and atmospheres. The third day will be New Mexico day. In addition there will be the Indian cere monial dances, Spanish and Mexican dance features and a tremendous pio neer costume ball, Santa. Fe passenger authorities state that the hotel facilities at Santa Fe nave been greatly improved, and that lack of adequate housing facili ties for tourists should not prove a handicap this year. Gasoline. Summer Train Latest R. R. Development One way for railroads to reduce The gasoline summer train is thi very latest in the development of lign equipment for railroad service. A two car. unit of this type, manufactured by the Four Wheel Drive Auto com pany of Cllntonvtne. Wisconsin, has Just been completed. These cars are of the open irpe with adjustable cur tains along the sides to provide pro tection for passengers against sun or rain. The forward car of thla unit has a seating capacity of thirty-five persons and the rear car can accommodate fifty. Special care has been taken by the manufacturer in the designing of the bodies of these cars so that each seat provides ample room tor five grown persona without crowding. The cars are equipped with air brakes, electric starting device and horn, standar-1 MCB couplers, locomo tive type "cow-catcher" on the for ward car. randers for sanding the rails, and high speed reverse gear which enables the cars to go as fastj in reverse as ihey will go forward. FIRST PULLMAN PATRONS SHY Wanted to Sleep With Boots on. Says J. L. Barnes, First Conductor. The first- conductor of a Pullman sleeping car is still alive and full of reminiscences of that night of Septem ber 1. 1859, whea he took No. a re modeled Chicago Alton passenger Coach, from Bloomlngton. 111., to Chi cago with George M. Pullman as the most observant of the four passengers, and the only one who did not pay for the' privilege of riding in It, Today at 85. J. L. Barnes Is round ing out his life at Chanute. Kan., having abandoned his railroad career of fifty-six years in 1910, when be re signed as division superintendent ot the Santa Fe railroad.' "I remember that on that first night I had to compel the passengers to take off their boots berore they got into their berths." narrates Mr. Barnes. "They wanted.'to keep them on seemed afraid to take them off. I remarked to Mr. Pullman that it was a fine car, and he replied briefly, for he was a silent man: 'It ought to be; It cost enough.' The cost of remodeling the two Chi cago Alton coaches Nos. 9 and 19 was about 92.000. "I was 32 years old at the time," continued Mr. Barnes in telling the story of that epoch-making night. "I wore no uniform and was in citizen's clothes. I had a badge, but that was all. The pay was 94 a round trip, or 92 a night. "Tho three cash passengers, men, were from Bloomlngton. There was no crowd at the station, and the car lighted by candles, moved away in solitary grandeur, if such it might be called. "The first month's business was poor. People had been in the habit of sitting up all night in the straight back seats, and they did not think much of going to bed while traveling-. After I had made a few trips it was decided it. did not pay to employ a Pullman conductor and the car. was placed in charge of .the train con ductor. So I was out of a job until business picked up. "The first Pullman car was a prim itive thing," said Mr. Barnes in com menting upon construction changes since 1859. "Besides being lighted by candles it was heated by a stove at each end of the car. There were no carpets. There were four upper and four lower berths. The backs of the seats were hinged, and to make ud the lower berth the porter merely dropped the back of the seat until ii was level with the seat Itself. Upon this hs placed a mattress and blanket. There were no sheets. "The upper berths were susDended from the celling by ropes and pulleys attached to each of the four corners of the berth. The uppers had iron rods running from the floor to the roof, and during the day the berths were pulled up until they hugged the ceiN ing, being fastened by a catch. Cur tains were used between, as well as in front of the berths. In the daytime one of the sections was used to store all the mattresses. There was a very small toilet room at each end and the wash-basins, were made of tin. A WHOLE TRAIN OF CHOCOLATE Rock Island Helps Move 1,250,000 Pounds of Candy Westward. A Connecticut chocolate firm re cently shipped a trainload of chocolate consigned to various destinations in the west. This trainload moved via New "York city passing thru Philadelphia, Pitts burgh and a number of large cities west thereof. At Chicago the train .was broken up and distributed to various cities Including Pacific coast points. The consignment consisted of thirty one cars, the majority moving via Rock Island Lines to points in the middle west. One of the features in- connection with this movement is the running of the train on what is called full day light service that is. not operated at night. The total weight of the consign ment was 1,290,000 pounds, and the value over one-quarter of r. million dollars. This is the first solid train load of chocolate ever shipped by any company in the history of the candy industry, and it is expected that others will follow in the near future. 3. G. BLOOM ONCE A TOPEKAN Engineer, Maintenance of Way, R. I Lines, Lived Here From 1903 to 1909. J. G. Bloom, whose promotion' to the newly created position of en gineer, maintenance of way, of the Rock Island Lines, with' headquarters at Chicago, was at one time a resident of Topeka wnen he had his headquar ters here as district manager. He was here from 1903 until laOj, and con tinued to make his headquarters here. as engineer maintenance of way of the Southwestern and Choctaw dis trict, until 1909, when he resigned o operating expenses on branch lines. On short I'ne railroads and espe cially on electric lines over which ex cursions are run in the summertime, the gasoline railway summer train d- pears to be the ideal installation for reducing operating costs and at the same time m-tintainlng reliable trans portation service. During the test runs which have been made with this equipment a speed of between thirty-five and forty miles per hour has been attained. The ears have rounded curves up to sixteen degrees curvature at a speed of twenty-five miles per hour, without the least trouble and are capable of rounding much sharper curves at a reduced speen. This and other developments- mad? by automotive manufactvrers toward the perfection of light railway equip ment is evidcrce of the fact that the automotive industry ia avails to the requirements of railroads that are forced to reduce their cost of operation in order to maintain a profitable service. Chamber of Commerce Works 365 Days in Each Year On Civic Projects Its Duties, Self Imposed, Cover Wide Range Organiza tion as Foundation of Efficient Accomplishment, Is Keynote. Topeka has one organization that 1 works 36 5 days in the year for a bet ter city, both in a civic and an Indus trial way. No matter how hot or cold the weather is, no matter how many persons are on a vacation, or whether every one is attending the ball game, this organization, the Chamber ot Commerce, continues to function. Its duties, which are self imposed. include everything pertaining to tho betterment of the city from the trim ming of trees to the establishment ol a large factory or industrial plant. It is organized for cervice. Its membership of 1.700 Includes 11 the leading business men, many professional men and persons inter ested in the creating of a better To peka. Its membership is stable. The worth of the organization is proven by the fact that a number of Topeka's leading business end professional men have held membership-in the organ ization for twenty years or more. Aj ft is an organization., for service, man power is needed to operate it and keep it functioning. The more man power in the organization the more work it is able to accomplish. An effort will be made to increase the membership by fifty within the next four weeks. Organization Is an Essential. Undertakings are best accomplished by organization. The Chamber of Commerce has organization. It baa a chief executive who direets the work of the organization and who Is re sponsible to the board of directors. The committees from the member ship are in charse of the various lines of work. Their work is similar to that of department heads in business and governmental organizations. The men are selected to serve on com mittees doing work, in which they not only have special ability, but in terest. "The development of Topeka is de pendent on its citizens," says Guy C. Sickler, secretary. "If a person works for the Chamber of Commerce, he worksxfor Topeka as the Chamber of Commerce is only a medium in which to concentrate efforts." The Chamber of Commerce is also a slearing house for information. It furnishes information daily on the roads in. the vicinity of Topeka and maps routes thru all parts ot -Kansas. Many tourists find this a most valuable aid. Altho it does not oper ate an employment bureau, many business men depend on it for the sup plying of office help. -A semi-month ly bulletin is also issued, which con- l.l.a W i S become a member of a private con struction firm in New Tork. He re turned, to the Rock Island, however, in 1914, as superintendent- of the Amerillo -division, and his latest posi. tion was division engineer of the Nebraska-Kansas division with headquar ters at Fairbury, Neb. His last pro motion came within the last sixty days. HISTORY AS IT IS TAUGHT

Topeka, Kansas. July 13, 1922. Editor Topeka State Journal; In the July 7th issue of The State Journal an editorial appears nnder the headline, "History As ItIs Taught." I want to especially commend you on the last paragraph of this article: What la needed is not more histories, but histories compiled by historians, which shall tell the truth." We agree with you in this and hope that all lovers of truth will Join with you in demanding that true American history be taught to our American youth. Altho unintentional on your part, your statement, "The Knights of Co lumbus are reported to be busily en gaged in getting up a history which, presumably, will show this-country to the world as it appears thru Catholic eyes," does our order an injustice and places us in a wrong light before your readers, for which reason we are sure you will be pleased to publish this arti cle whicfi will explain our position. In his farewell address to the Amer ican people, George Washington said: "Against the Insidious wiles of foreign influence. I conjure you to believe me. fellow citizens, the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of. republican gov ernment." The danger against which Washing ton warned his countrymen is threat ening our national existence today. The reasons which prompted the Knights of Columbus to take practical steps to counteract "the insidious wiles of foreign influence" for many years past and finally thru official action of the supreme convention at San Francisco in August, 1921, in estab lishing the Knights of Columbus his torical commission were of a positive rather than a negative character, as they were not .directed by hostility toward any race, creed or party but solely by an honest, sincere and con scientious desire to promote Ameri can patriotism, devoid of race hatred, bias or sectional prejudice. No higher purpose or motive could be set before the American citizens; no greater serv ice could be rendered to the nation than to Instill in the minds and hearts of our American youth the construc tive idea of a distinctive patriotism, which history and experience alike prove to be the foundation stone of American independence. v Our country has been Inundated with foreign propaganda, "the insidi ous wiles of foreign influence" menace our. youth. Charles Grant Miller in his booklet "Treason to American Tra dition," says: "Harts history teaches that natriots were drawn ino the continental army by money, i bounty and promise of land" (p. 134). and again: "the colonists were not desperately oppressed. They enjoyed more freedom and self-government than the people oi England p. 120). Thousands of good people sincerely loved Great Britain and were loyal to King George. "The Loyalists were harshly put down (p. 14S)." O'Hara denounces the Boston Tea Party as "wholly law less destruction of property." Mas querading under the old and honored name of Barnes, a new historian struts upon the stace, and appears more like an apologist to a foreign power for the Independence established by our 'fathers. In his history. Faneuil Hall "tbe cradle of liberty" has no place, nor does be mention the mutiny act or the Boston Massacre; the Patriot Nathan Hale, whose only regret on a British scaffold was that he had but one life to give to his country, is ig nored In his (O'Hara's) "American" The value of tne organization Is made evident by the fact that 80 per cent of the board of directors have attended all fourteen meetings of the board since April 1. Board Members Donato Time. j The members of the board give their time voluntarily-to help direct the organization. A. E. Van Petten, Clement Seely. S. Putney and George P. MeKntire have missed no meetings of the board. The work of the Chamber of Com merce nas not advanced so rapid ly this year as last, because many busi ness men are finding it necessary to devote more tim- to their private business due to changed conditions following the war: Much of the work done by the Chamber of Commerce is not always' noticed immediately. In a number of cities where the Chamber of Com merce ceased to function1, civic im provement has come to a standstill. The cooperating in the entertaining and housing of convention visitors is only a small parr of tho work of the organization, altho it has proved it self to be indispensable in caring for conventions. Many projects undertaken by the Chamber of Commerce take two or three years to be worked out. The greatest project completed in Topeka this year, which was originated by the Chamber of Commerce, was the con struction of a 9535.000 water filtra tion plant. Milton Tabor served as chairman of the committee in charge of that project. Some Things C. of C. Has Done. The organization was instrumental in the establishing of a rural rest room in the city hall. Two of the principal "projects under way at present are the establishment of free camp grounds for tourists and the marking of the Southwest Trail from Atchison to- Emporia The project of building a hotel at Seventh and Jackson streets was started by the Chamber of Commerce. The industrial committee is now busy looking out for new industries for Topeka. The committee does not attempt to bring industries bere and then establish a market, but to -bring in industries for which there is J. market established. A city beautification committee will take up work in the near future. Acquaintanceship is also regarded as necessary for the best work.

Benedict Arnold, whom he says con gress had not fairly treated. Pains are taken in this book to teach American children that "the first sign ers of the Declaration of Independence were smugglers." that "the Continen tal Congress was a scene of petty bick erings and schemihgs, among selfish, unworthy, short-sighted, narrow minded, office seeking and office trad ing plotters' that "half of the colo nists were loyal to England and if the wise course had been pursued, this country would probably now have been a great branch of tha British Empire." (P. 34). in the so-called McLaughlin Van Tyne history, our children are taught In the schools hew versions of our old inspiring Colonial annals, such as "The Declaration of Independence was largely plagiarized 'from an Eng lishman and that the constitution of the United States was copied after the British constitution." No mention Is made of the Green Mountain Boys, Betsy Koss or the birth of our glorious flag, but they are given such as this, "it is hard for us to realize; how ignor ant and superstitious were most of the early Colonists of America." (p. 134.) "Patrick Henry, a gay, unprosperous and hitherto unknown country law yer." (p. 141.) "As the British soldiers who had left Bosten at raid night neared Lexington in the early morning of April 19, 1775, Adams and Hancock stole away across the fields." (p. 153.) .."Hamilton is said to have exclaimed at a banquet once, 'the people, sir, is a great beast." (p. 238.) "Thomas Jefferson, may he receive from his fellow citizens the reward of his merit, a halter." p. 249.) "We can now ttfford to laugh at our fore fathers." tp. 282.) Such rottenness as above quoted from so-called "American" histories is an outrage against our Glorious Re public, Is purely foreign propaganda and should not be tolerated for a min ute as it is a deliberate attempt to undermine and destroy the patriotism of the youth of America. As you aay. It may not change the historical fact to say that George Washington was an Eskimo, but to put such a state ment in our' history and teach it to our children would most certainly de stroy the love, devotion and respect of the American youth for the Father of Our Country. The Knights of Columbus have pledged their best efforts and their most earnest endeavor in unity with that ot all true Americans to strike such rottenness from American history and prevent it being tanght in our schools. In this high and noble cante they have engaged and now bave the best and most noted historians in America to compile a history upon ihe basis of truth, justice and historical facts, regardless of race, creed or peo ple and without bias, prejudice or sec tional differences and such a history they will give to their country.

In tfome departments employes are re fceiving more compensation for work Shan persons working for private con cerns. 5, No reductions are scheduled, how ever, as many of the emjployes did not receive increased compensation in the fearly days of the war.

The commissioners believe that the tax rate will be higher during the next year. It is impossible to be sure of this at the present time as the city Valuation has not vet been ascertained. The only chance for reduced taxeo win he a much higher valuation, as The city has spent much money in the last year and a large budget will te required to meet the city's needs or the next twelve months. Among the reasons for Increased expenditures fa th- large amourt of paving being done and the erection of the new water filtration plant.

Water bonds to Che sum of 1)50.000 will be retired at that time. These bonds were assumed fcy the city when it purchased the old irater company's property. f The city retired $97,100 of refunding ionds during the last year. Topeka londs are much sought after on ac count of the small city debt, t It is understood on good authority that the section outside the city jfcounded by Fourteenth. Seventeenth, Randolph and Mac Vicar streets, will lie taken into the city during the next Wear.

To learn the English language In ten months after speaking only Rus sian for ten years seems almost impos sible. But Henry Kass. 11-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Philip Kass, 407 Kansas avenue, has learned to speak English per fectly and has gone thru the first four grades of Lincoln school in Just that length of time. He is also a talented cartoonist and a sculptor. Altho he has only been in the United States ten months, young Kass has sculptured a bust of Abra ham Lincoln which is now in one of the rooms at Lincoln school.

Durincr th. neriod of CTeat food shortage following the war, the Kass family was provided with food and clothing which Mr. Kass sent from Topeka.

TRAINING HELPS VETERANS United States Bureau Records Tell or Three Men Who Have Been Advanced In Life by Edu cation Received. Much Information has been given out regarding the general work and accomplishments of the United States Veterans bureau, but little is known concerning the Individual cases of dis abled men who have received voca tional training under the direction of the bureau. Three cases handled by the To peka office vt the bureau are typical of the vocational training being given and the benefits received. Francis R. Russell, a private tn the 214th supply train, received sixteen months' training as an auto and trac tor mechanic. His preliminary train ing' was received at the Kansas State Agricultural college and he completed it by working in a garage at Flor ence. Kan. He recently returned to his home in North Motton, North Devon, England, where he is conduct ing his own garage business. Dewey E. Beyer, private in Bat tery E. 127th field artillery, was a Marshall county can grow fruit, and to prove the statement. Jimmic Nevins,- Jr.. Fartner of the firm of Kevins Son. can take the unbe liever to the Xevins orchard and show him. E. F. Nevins first started In the orchard game in Marshall county in '89 when he grew peaches and apples on the old Cons place east of Blue Rapids. Whin young Jimmie grew up he went in busines with his dad and they moved to a small place on the east side of Blue Rapids where they have developed the nursery business. The Nevinses sold peaches at a good profit twenty years ago when the lo cal market was glutted by shipping to towns in western Kansas and even to Colorado. At one timo E. F. Nevins sold Globe peaches on the Denver market for three dollars a bushel while many farmers were tak ing what they could get locally. "Pro duce a better product and get a mar ket for it." is the Nevins motto. This year Nevins Son had two and one-half acres of strawberries. Jimmie started looking for a market about' the middle of May. The de mand seemed fairly good. He'went to nearly every nearby western town first for a market, and then east to Frank fort where the wholesale house agreed to take all he could raise. When the berries began to ripen the con sumer began to sing. There was no use looking ior a market, the market looked for the berries and tho demand was so heavy that orders had to bo booked ahead. Over $500 worth of berries were sold from til two and one-half acr:a after the cost of crates had been de ducted. "Part of our success In raising ber ries." says Jimmie, "iB due to th? mulching. We put six acres of prairie hay on the two and one-half acres. Cold weather does not kill plants but alternate freezing and thawing breaks the roots. The hay mulch prevents this. Two loads of hay are removed in the spring. We count on two -crops from these vines." Sixth District News Notes Items and Reminiscences by An Old Timer, With His Ear to the Grass Roots.

The first third of the structure Is to be built for a base price of 10 per cent fbr the personal services of the con tractor and the use of all necessary equipment, including tower and chute. If the cost goes over $45,000 the $4, 500 to be paid the contractor will be reduced to a minimum of $2,200.

Work was started on the new women's dor mitory at the university, the building 1 ways at home when he is talking for Dempster Scott of Atwood, a well known and successful attorney of northwest Kansas, was a Topeka vis itor a few days ago. In conversation with others who were telling- remin iscent items about old pioneer times of the country and their towns and people, Scott chipped in" and told one of an Irishman who. had brought his family with him and located in Rawlins county. Likemany of the early settlers this -family wasn't blessed with an abundance of this world's goods, but by thrift and frugality in a few years fortune smiled on him. In stead of the original homestead he put his government right on, and blessed with good crops, he made other investments, and in a few years was the owner of other farms. His children grew up, and as they married they settled on these farms, the title of which remained In the fathers name. As a result differences arose between them as was to be expected and during a heated discussion be tween them the son said something that ruffled the father, and he said: "I never talked to my father that way," but said the son, "your father" "stop right there," the old man said. "I'll not let you say a word against my father, for I had a better one fhan you ever dared have." Speaking of Fourth of July cele brations in pioneer days, Mrs. George Toxall relates her experience of the first one she attended in 1873, in Rooks county. This one was held in a grove on the Solomon river, near Lowell, the then cpunty vseat, ana about five miles east of Stockton.. In those early times the settlers were scarce, but she says the people turned out and helped' celebrate the day, coming from all sections of the coun ty. Mrs. Toxall says transportation facilities were limited, there being no railroads. Many of the crowd came in wagons hauled by oxen. She remem bers only three families who came in vehicles hauled by horses. At the time antelope were numerous, and many of the crowd feasted on that kind of meat. The day was pleasantly spent in visiting and getting acquainted, and Old Glory was waving in the air. Some short talks, singing and the children romping around, the time passed pleasantly until it was time for the oxen to haul the crowd to their homes, many of them living in sodl nouses, it was a aay long to do re membered by all who attended this Rooks county picnic in 1873. One of the latest arrivals from northwest Kansas is W. N. Kinslow of Beloit who will msjke his home in Topeka, where sevtnty-five and more former Beloit people reside. He went with fhe Kinslows to Mitchell county in 1875, when a young boy. As age came on he took up music, and was known In several counties adjoining Mitchell as the pioneer piano tuner of that section. He has musical talent. and was for some time a member of Manifold's Military band which made Beloit famous, it being the home, of Andy Manifold, the organizer anl leader of the, band lor more than a quarter of a century. Kinslow is al- being located on old North College bill, three blocks from the present university campus. Old College was the first building to be erected at the university and stood in the center of two blocks of land which made up the original campus. The new building is being built on the southeast corner of the two blocks and is just southeast of the site of the old building. The university's share of the dormitory fund, appropriated by the last legislature, was about $190,000. which is about $40,000 more than was originally intended for K. U. The addition was made when Kansas State Agricultural college forfeited its share. Mrs. Theodore Western) an Leads. Glacier Park, Mont., July 15. Mrs. Theodore Westerman of Bronxville, N.

He lives in Oak land. Several Nebraska capitalists visited Goodland a few days since. While these visitors are more interested in their own state they think northwest Kan sas has a great future before her. One of them made this remWk: "You people living in western- Kansas may not believe it, but the next ten years will see the greatest development in the western hundred miles of Kansas and the eastern hundred miles of Colorado that the country has ever seen." Commenting on the above re mark the Goodland Republic says: "Eighty per cent of Sherman county people believe this, and fully that many inhabitants of the town believe that in the next five years the town will have a population of 5,000 to 10,000. The First National bank of Ellis, one of the strongest in western Kan sas, and one of the chain of .banks owned and operated by C. G. Cochran, has changed hands, the new manage ment being J.. J.

If Topeka gossip no longer Intrigues you, seek a summer resort. The favor ite indoor sport of resorters is dis cussing the affairs of other resorters. Within twenty-four hours after alight ing from the train the new arrival has 'been kindly informed by various residents as to whom she should shun and with whom she should profitably acquaint herself for the conversation of resorters is mainly composed of they say," "I have heard," and "you don't need to say anything about it, but." Who lives in that cottage? Why the Bakers of Denver.- I have heard they have lots of money. From the amount of fireworks they had the Fourth they must be independently rich. Mercy, such extravagance! But really you should get acquainted. They have a son who is in college, you know awfully handsome, and Mrs. Smith said Mrs. Brown you know that big fat woman who is here to re duce told brer that he is unattached l'K'm!" "Have you' seen that girl next door?" another resorter asks. "The one that paints? oh no, not pictures. She paints herself. She's just a sightt They say she's awfully fast and I don't doubt it Why every other word she says is 'gosh.' And she's plumb crazy. I've heard, about a fella with a little Charley Chaplain mustache that lives down in Mountain View. He's over to see her every single day. She thinks she's making a big catch. You know he puts on airs just like he was a millionaire, but they say he's really just a shoe .clerk in Kansas City." "A widower lives over In that log cottage. His wife's been dead for ninu and a half years. Miss Higgins that old maid with the long nose you've seen her haven't you? she's been after him for five years. And I just know she dyed her hair 'fore she came up here this summer. I do hope she lands him pore soul. Mrs. Johnson, she knew her up In Denver, and she said that she had a fella once Miss Higgins. I mam that jilted her. He run off with another girk But Just as I said to Mrs. Johnson, she was lucky to be rid of him." "You see That girl going by?

The post master says they're post marked 'Chi cago' "Did you hear," whispers another sister, "about that man that came to Verano Lodge with two suitcases and a wife and baby? We saw him come, and just between you" and me and th'j gatepost I believe he had whisky in one snitcase. He just looked like that kind of a man and what made me think so more'n ever was that tin asked my husband to cash a check for him a perfect stranger, you know. Wouldn't that make you think he might have whisky with him or some thing?" "And there's a girl over there that goes horseback riding ajl by herself. Looks mighty strange to me. She goes 'most every morning all by her self. yes's!" "There's a woman Mrs. Swope is her name lives up there on the hill. She's awfully queer lives all by her self and has all sorts of animal pets chipmunks land the like. They say she's worn the same old grey sweater and hat for thirteen years. You don't need to say anything about it, but I think she's not all there." "That girl why she's the one that gets put off the floor at dances. 1 was there once when they put her off, and Mrs. Jones was there another time. I guess she gets put off every dance. She's certainly terrible. I never speak to her myself."- "Have you ever seen that big fat man go puffing by? He weighs three hundred if he weighs a pound. I s'pose he's out here to get thin. But I'm just positive he's gaining even day. He lives in that house wnere the flag Is. You know he's from Chey enne and they say he and his wife don't get along very well. It's all her fault too I know It is because who -ever sa-.v a fat man that didn't have a good disposition?". The new trrival-, her head filled with information concerning her fel low resorters, continues on Her way rejoicing, an enlightened beinW. She pauses but a moment to wonder about the trend of the conversation after her departure, but the cool mountain breeze and the pine laden air smother her moment of doubt In carefree Joy thine own eye, etc' Jack has been in politics for fifty or' sixty years wltnout learning that neither party in- a. church fight was ever known to acknowledge error, repent, or. seek forgiveness nor ever to practice brotherly charity."" Nor is this all. The Goodland Republic believes the Sixth district is ahead in the state in the fish line. It says: "W. C. Wolfe drove over from St. Francis Sunday to visit at the R. G. Wolfe home. He re ported that the rain Saturday raised the Republican river higher than It has been for over a quarter of a cen tury. Fish were stranded all over the bottoms and the citizens for miles around gathered them up for food, getting some that weighed ten pounds." And Russell county doesn't want ,to take a back seat, and tells this one: H. A. Frier, county treasurer, speak ing about a fearful wind, hail and rain, says he stepped out in the back yard after the" storm to see what dam age it had done to him. He- found a hard shell turtle dead, with a hole thru it, which he thinks was made by the hail. At another time, in mid winter, he tells this story, that he saw a snake crawling along on top of a snowdrift, and said snake ap peared to be lively as it could be in the good old summertime."

VIE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAIS ATURDAY ENIKG, Jl?LY 15, 1922 s 1 5 At I Hi ERROR WAS FATAL A Boot Gare Independent First of Series, to 8. Solons Also Filled to Hit in thepiaens. Oner tils inning. th snt, 1rA all that the league leading Indepen dence Producers needed to beat the Cooley help, yesterday afternoon, 6 to S. The fact that the visitors bunched three ot their seven hits In that in fringe along with two walks and an error" by Bross, was responsible for the defeat of the Solons. Despite the fact that he went into tne box with only a days rest. Earl Bmith pitched a sweet frame for six innings and would have survived tne seventh had it not been for Bross' errors But the t!re hits and oft walk followed the boot and four rani went across the elate sifter the Side Should have been retired. Mitchell then took over the pitching burden and held the froaucers scoreless tn the next two Innings, not even letting a man get to first base. The hitting of Bagwell and Rose were features of the con test. Bagwell getting a double and three singles, and Boss at double and two singles. But regardless of the lead gained by the visitors in the seventh, the Solons had a chaMs In both the eighth and ninth innings to bust up the game. They filled the bases With only one down in the eighth but neither Rose. StfOHrtl ef Clarke could produce a run. Two were again on in the ninth but again the necessary hits were not forthcoming, and with the umps having an off day so far as Topeka was concerned, th game went skeltering into the hell box. Without errors, the score would have been 1 to 1, as only that many runs were arned. Each Side Scored In the First. The Producers scored once in the first round on a walk to Flaskamper and Bagwell's double, while the Solons forged to the lead in the second half by counting twice on a walk to Ne ville, Rose's double, Strohm's sacrifice fly and Frdmme's failure to capture the throw from the outfield. The visitors failed to get another hit off Smith until the fourth Inning and really never threatened to do any damage again until the seventh. Then they did a plenty. The Solons had a chance to fatten their lead in the fourth and again in the sixth, but their hits were coming after too many were in the morgue, and the threat ened rallies quickly flickered out. Solons Failed In the) Pinches. With Independence leading S to S, tne eighth and ninth presented some pitiful scenes. With one down in the eighth, Mitchell got credit for a sin gle when he hit a-hot one toward third base which Stewart couldn't handle, and Peterson dumped a safe one into right. Neville hit to Flas kamper but Lowrance messed up the play at second on Peterson and the bases were loaded, Neville being safe on the choice. Rose had a chance to bust it up but Shaney got revenge for the way Mitch had been cricking out base hits by striking the center fielder out. Mitchell scored when Lowrance juggled -Strohm's grounder -but hope faded when Clarke sent a high one to Jenkins In center field. Bross struck out to start the last half of the ninth. Horn singled and Bockskopf was safe when Jenkins dropped his pop fly back of second base. Again there was a chance. Cooley did his best to invent a base hit b sending Benn in to bat for Mitchell. But the result was a force out of Bockskopf at second base, and Peterson duplicated the trick on Benn a moment later for the third out. Cooley lingered long enough after the game to tell Umpire Van Graflan a few things which wouldn't lay still in print, but it didn't change the score.

New T read one of your artioles aome time sago." a certain golfer Wrote me recently, "in which you referred to the mental side of the game. Whai I would like to ask is. this How can any one think about the right thing to do? I know a number of things I ought to do, but in the excitement of playing usually forget them, or get them mixed up. And if I try to think too hard I break up my conoentration on the actual hitting of the shot." Any number of golfers, know what they ought to do,' if they could only remember 4t. And I believe one trouble here Is that most of them try to remember too many things. An Example. Here Is an example of thinking about the main thing. For a Jong time Cyril Walker, the EngieWood pro Who hag been scoring so well lately, had trouble in keeping his right el bow close to his body. He knew this Was his main weak ness, that If he could overcome it he could take off many strokes. Now, Walker had very little chance for practice. But he made up his mind to think about this one thing. If nothing else, every time he started a round. At first he forgot about it once or twice in the excitement ot a match, but it soon became a habit. Ad he stepped upon the first tee he would say to himself "Keep the right elbow in." Thru this system he began to de velop improvement In this particular respect, and, once mastered, it made all the difference in the world. He waa no longer guessing about his approach with that right elbow in close he had the club under almost perfect control. Walker would never have made this great improvement if he had not made a definite point of thinking about that elbow. At the Right' Place. There are golfers, for example. Who art constantly short on their approach shots. They mean to hit the next one up to the cup or beyond. But in the meanwhile they never think about it until they are short again-' The chances are that in the meanwhile they have tried to think about six or eight other things, only to think of nothing at the right time. The main thing in golf is to think of the right thing at the right time in the right place. On the back awing the golfer too often triea to think about looking at the ball, in place of thinking about the back swing to be swre that it is started evenly and steadily, to be rare that the club head starts on a circle HERE'S JESS TODAY; DO YOU THINK

There are certain physical thing that must happen to the right swing, and they must happen in order. But there are also certain mental things that must take place, and they also muM hannen in Order. ."Think Of the right thing at the fight time" is one of the most im portant slogans in the game. For ex ample, when you get up to the ball you should decide definitely just what line you want to take and just how hard you must strike. Think that Out and then stand pat On it. Don't rrake the mistake of thinking about it again thru the swing. Another good point to think of at the start of the back swing is not to rush the stroke. Let it go baclt even ly, the left hand and arm in control and then think en thrit the stroke. Don't quit on it, or shift your atten tion to something else. There is no nse to sugojest that you try to concen trate. The chances are yon are con centrating too much or rather upon too many things. You can prefcs men tally ah well as physically in fact, the first leads to the latter mistake. The minds of too marry golfers are muddled by trying to think of too many things, in place of thinking about the important thiflga,. If you have been playing your ap proaches too short, make up your mind definitely as you get to the ball to give this next one in a chance In advance of the strok- not after you have been short again. When you are on the putting green, do your thinking before you hit the ball. Pick your line and decide how hard you intend to hitr and then only think abouthitting that ball end think on thru. The reason most putts are hit badly' is that the average golfer is still trying to decide what line he must take, and how hard he must hit AFTER HE HAS STARTED his put ter in motion. That mistake is being made all the time, and it has cost enough missed putts to fill eight or ten boxcars. The golfer who can't learn to think of the right thing at the right time will never improve. His grip may be correct and his stance may be correct, but if hia mental side isn't co-ordinal, ing with his physical it i all going to waste. And it isn't a hard thing to do if one will ynly nse a little system about it and make a habit of doing hia thinking In adv&nee. cot during the course of the swing.

There ar e only four offices In which the trert incumbents are not seeking xe-electlos). The warmest flgtrt will be for coun- ty commissioner fnom the First dis trict. Boyd Pollonv present commis sioner, is seeking a third term, and pitted against him are six other can. tiidates from various townships of the 'district. They are: V. R. Parkhurst. civil engineer and president of the North Topeka Cfvic club; Eugene Hays, North Topeka' commission mer chant K. G. Oi-lswokl. present trustee of Rossville township; John Ostrsnd of Menoken township,- William Farns worth. North Topeka ooal merchant, and W. S. Robinson of Soldier town ship. These men began campaigning as far back as February and it is ap parent that this race will be the most exciting in the primary. In the Third district Kenneth Raub. former county clerk, now a deputy, and John Sutherin, Jr., farmer, are opposing each other for the honor of succeeding Hugh Larimer, who was appointed to fill out the unexpired term of the late Henry McAfee. In the last election Raub was defeated by McAfee by the narrow margin of forty-two, votts, but Sutherin also has a big following and the contest here will undoubtedly be interesting. Throe for Register of Deeds. Next to the commissioner Jobs the warmest fight is expected to center on the office of register of deeds. Miss Nanon Hen-en, publisher of the Legal News; Mi3s Flora Stratemeyer, for several years a deputy in the reg- ister's office, fnd T. J. Stone, a porch contractor and builder, are opposing esch other for the Job. O. B. Eddy, a farmer, was once slated as a candidate but withdrew in favor of Stone. J. A.

Stone, liBOB andindustIalcourts Editor State Journal: I am sorry that I did not make my. eelf sufficiently clear in my former article under above head. Mr. Martin would have you believe that I said that organized labor was centuries behind timea But that is not the cam. In discussing the atti ude of organized labor to Industrial courts I said, "Organized Labor seems to prefer the court of force to the court of reason. It fights anything like art industrial court." And, "This attitude of organized labor at the cresent Is centuries behind timea"- In many other respects organized labor is up-to-date and progressive ana de serves much credit for the vast amount of work it has done. But I was not discussing those activities. In regard, .o the statement that the present strike is against the United States government. I was only agree ing with Mr. Hooper, president of the United States R. R. labor board and other high officials well posted in the law. But Mr. Martin has a per fect right to confer with them. That Is his privilege and whenever organ ized labor gives to otners tne rigm that the demand for themselves and aives to all others the privilege of working In -peace for whomsoever .thsy will, they are law abiding citi zens and will always be so classed. But whenever they destroy property, and mob men who are trying to serve humanity by doing an honest day's work, driving them from their Jobs. sometimes with cruel bearings and savage murder they will be classified otherwise, the same as anyone else. The labor onions have done a great J good and can still be of great service to humanity if they will remember that persons who do not belong to any union have rights also which should be respected. J. Hi HOWARD, Topeka, Kan. Telegrams Not Whole Function of Western Union Protector Too Fire, Burglary and. Watchman Service of Telegraph Com pany Protects $20,000,000 Worth of Topeka Property Is Electrical Fire, Police and Detective Service. A lot of very good crime and de tective stories have been written upon tne oasis or psycnoiogy, in the past few years. The modern Sherlock Holmes has paid more attention-to the clues In the brain of his suspect, than to the foot prints on the walls of the scene of the crime. Several of these stories have teen based upon the system of a psychol ogist who fires a series of apparently incoherent and unrelated words at his victim, and draws miraculous deduc tions from the answers which the victim makes: For Instance "Snow," says the psychologlst-- "Blood," answers the victim. promptly. Cold" would be the natural answer. Therefore the victim is thinking about blood stains on snow. He probably committed the crime, and he is straightway jailed therefor. Correspondingly, if the average per son were the victim and the inter rogator fired the name "Western Union," at him, the said average per son would probably respond instantly 'Telegram,' or "Messenger boy." And the average person would be proved Innocent of knowing all the functions of the Western Union office in Topeka. There is more to tne joo or tne W. U. Tel." in Topeka than the re ceipt and transmission of messages. There is more than appears, even, if you trace the life of a messenger boy and chronicle all the funny, danger ovs, and extraordinary experiences which he has in replying to the varied calls of the patrons of the messenger service.. Is a. Protective Agency, Too. For instance, the Western Union in Topeka maintains contracts for pro tection against fire and burglary, and supervises the activities of thirty-eight nignt watenmen in the city a indus trial and commercial plants. There are on duty at night at the local office three husky ex-service men, armed and supplied with com missions as deputy sheriffs, who form an -efficient and valuable adjunct to the city's police force. ins burglar alarms Which the Western Union maintains are among the most interesting of tne company's activities. The Western Union won't take a contract for the protection of a plant with a burglar alarm unless every opening in the building is to be protected, and the- charge for the service is based upon the number of openings thus protected. It. would take a very "notlelna-" burglar to observe the mechanical means of protection, but thev are there. And entry thru any one of the openings instantly causes the sound ing of an alarm at the central office of the Western Union. A broken win dow, a lock which has been nicked and a door swung open, or a,, bar sawea out, means that the three dep uty sheriffs start to investigate, and that at the same time the police sta tion is notified by phone of where the break has occurred, and there is a pa trol of policemen on their way to una dui. Proved at Harrts-Goar. It was not long ago that the Harris. Goar store, one of those thus nro- tected, was saved from an expensive looung wnen a Durgiar sawed a bar out of a window in the alley. The alarm was siven when the bar was removed, and before the thief even had time to remove his saw, the offi cers were on his trail. He escaped, but left the saw behind. "They are installing a new system in some of the eastern cities, which is even more efficient than that." W. C. Fox. local manager for the Western Union, says. "The alarm Is set to act whenever there is the slightest noise or Jar in the premises which are protected. To walk across the floor will set it off, or even to close a drawer with a bang. None of these systems have yet been installed In Topeka. however." Joseph Mathews, a veteran at the game, is In charge of these protective services for the local office of tho Western Union. There Is a tall switch board in the rear of the office, literal ly plastered with coils and lamps and tickers and switches, and other thing amajlgs. Mathews, sitting at this switchboard, has before him the rec ord of many things that are happen ing In many places In Topeka. His switchboard Is a motion picture screen and a most efficient force of detec tives, all in one. It, and the apparatus to which Its wires lead, do the detecting, and the deducting, as well as Sherlock Holmes could have done It better. In fact. And then on the switchboard, with Mathews as the spectator, is thrown, as on a screen, the results of the "ob servations and deductions" of the me chanical detective force. Unthnslastlo About Sprinklers, Mathews is especially enthusiast to about the fire protection which his apparatus suppliea Most of the big Duiioings in TopeKa are equipped with sprinkler systems for protection against fire, and eight of the largest have those sprinkler systems electric ally connected so that a fire alarm is sounded In the Western Union office If a fire developa The electrical alarm Is connected with the sprinkler "heads." which are So arranged that they melt at a tem perature of ISO degrees Fahrenheit and commence a flow of water de signed to smother the flames. The alarm is based on the water pressure. When the pressure is re duced, that means that a sprinkler head has melted off, and water Is flowing that means a fire alarm. The Western Union system tells all this to Mathews, and Mathews hss a private telephone to the central office of the fire department. The quickest possible action can be secured in this way. The arrangement Is so delicate that any tampering with the valves and water gates of the system will send in the alarm. A quarter-turn of one of the valves will do the trick. And that isn't all. In the tanks' which supply water to" the sprinkler systems, thermometers are kept. If there is any danger of the water freez ing in these tanks, the Western Union will be instantly notified, and the owners of the building are warned to supply heat for the tanka The manner In which the burglar and fire alarms are tested by the Western Union and the managers of the plants protected, is almost as com plicated as the systems themselvea The most complete possible check on the workings of the alarms are made at regular and frequent Intervals. The man who has his store pro tected by a burglar alarm, must close his plant at a certain time, and open it at a certain time, and during that time is himself locked out. If he fails to open or close the doors accord ing to the schedule which is filed at the Western Union office, an Investi gation is immediately started. Has Key to State House. With the Western Union are de posited the keys to the various busi ness houses and plants tinder its pro tection. Also there are cards bearing the signatures of the persons allowed to have keys to the places. And when any of these persons wishes to enter the store outside the regular hours, the Western Union sends a watchman to get the signature of that person, and the time at which entrance was made: The Western Union probably has the only key to the state house which is in Topeka, except those in the pos session of the custodian and his staff. Among Topeka's ''toilers of the night" the men and women who serve and guard when all the rest of the city Is slumbering peaceruiiy there are thirty-eight night watchmen who are all under the watchful care of the Western Union. These watchmen are posted In the industrial and manufacturing plants, the mills, the shops, the stores and the big office buildings. With the development of the bur glar alarm systems and the sprinklers which protect against fire, their num ber has been reduced, and their duties curtailed. Formerly they were policemen and fire pickets. Now they spend much of their time sweeping out shops and offices, and doing other work which can better be done when the regular staff is not on duty. "But what good is a night watch man unless you have some way of checking up on him?" asked Fox. And the records of the watchman service of the Western Union backs him up. Check Up on Watchmen. Hardly a night passes but the West ern Union supervising watchmen are called to check up on some one of the thirty-eight men who has gone to sleep on the job or for some other reason has failed to make his calls. Most of the thirty-eight are re quired to signal to the Western Union from a different portion of the build ing at least once an hour. Just on the hour and near it, their calls come in at the rate of six a minute. Just as the sentries of the old army used to send their musical and mourn ful call from their various posts "Post No. 3, two o'clock and all's well," and the officer of the guard, listening to the call coming from the entire series of sentries rolled over for another pounding of his ear, so the sentries of the industrial army of Topeka report each hour by electricity to the' "officer of the guard" at the Western Union office. Two men check the calls of the watchmen. Before .them are printed schedules, showing the times and from what "boxes" or stations, the watchmen are due to make their calls. A certain period, from five to fifteen minutes, is given as "grace" for each watchman by" his employer. If the watchmen does not make his call within that period, a Western Union man goes post haste to see what is the matter. Only last week one of the watchmen was found in a faint by a Western Union man. More than one watchman has been found dis abled or unconscious after a fall, when the Western Union, not getting his call, went to Investigate. No, telegrams and messenger serv ice are not the only functions of the Western Union, by quite a good deal. Fox estimates that some twenty mil lion dollars worth of Topeka property is protected from fire, or theft, or other mischance by the electrical po lice and fire and detective service which centers at the tall switchboard under Joseph Mathewsf eye. Chief Blew the Fire Out. Hutchinson, July 15. When the Hutchinson fire department responded to a call in the business district re cently no hose was used or chemicals sprayed. Chief Al Stout merely blew tne nre ou,t with one whiff. A little blaze had started in an automobile from a short circuit. TO FIGHT SYSTEM State Bankers Oppose Braneh Banking Law in Kansas. a Association Issues Statement on Position of Members. The executive council of the Ksnsas State Bankers' association, at Its reg ular meeting here recently, went on record as opposed to the principle and extension of branch banking. Emma D. Partridge, secretary of the asso ciation, has announced that a commit tee of three members has been ap pointed and Instructed to draft a reso lution as soon as possible "against the extension of branch banking In Kan sas." The next regular meeting of the state association will be held In September, Miss Partridge said, but a mail vote probably will be taken be fore then or a special meeting called to consider the resolution as soon as it Is prepared. The" Kansas State Bankers' associa tion, which is made up exclusively of state banks. Ml as Partridge said, is op posed to the bill now before congress which provides for the establishment of tranches, not to exceed twelve in number, by natipnal banks in any city or county having 25,000 population. Another bill before congress, she said, provides for national bank branches in the states whose' laws permit state bank branches. The association is also opposed, to this, she added. -Flv States Have law. "Only five sjtate. California, Georgia, Tennessee, New York and Mississippi nave so far passed laws permitting the establishment of branches," Miss Partridge said, "while eleven state banker's associations have gone on record as opposed to the prin. ciple 'and extension of branch bank ing. In ten states the question has been agitated to some extent, but as yet the law has made no entry Into the statute books. A questionnaire recently Issued on this subject brought out the fact that the great majority of' American bankers are opposed to the establishment of branch banking in our country. In 1916, the American Bankers' association in convention, passed unanimously a resolution op posing its extension. In 1920, a bill to permit branch banking in cities passed the senate, but was killed in a house committee. At the last convention of the American association in October, 1921, the state, bank division went on record as 'unalterably opposed to the extension and principle of branch banking' and after reconsideration the executive council of the association, which had drafted a resolution favor ing the extension, .decided not to sub mit it." A statement issued at the recent meeting here, said: "We, as state bankers, must realize the danger and do our part in prevent ing the extension of branch banking. Every other country which has tried branch banking, has gone thru a period of trial and at last found it self in the clutch of a gigantic monop oly which placed the whole financial system at the mercy of syndicates and schernlng capitalists," X HOW WEATHER IS MADE Topeka .Gets Hex's From Chi-', eago Flora Is Not To Be Blamed Station Observers Re port Conditions to Five Fore casting Stations in the U. S. K8T FOR THAT REASON Restaurant Man Doesn't Stamp Newspapers to Keep Patrons From Carrying Them Away. Clarence Scott is' one of the veterans of the restaurant game in Topeka. One of the features of his service is his habit of supplying to patrons an adequate nunber of the latest avail able edition if the Topeka newspapers. In large type across the top of each copy is stamped "Scott's Restaurant." The stamping is done for a purpose exactly the opposite of what one might suppose. "It isn't so much to keep the cus tomers from walking off with the pa pers," Scott says. "It's to make them feel more free to pick them up and read them. "A customer sometimes feels hes!-, tan t about grabbing a paper as soon as another patron lays it down, for fear that it might be the personal property of the man who had been reading It. "When the papers are plainly stamped and evidently belong to the restaurant, the next fellow in line feels free to pick it up. It's mighty sel dom that anyone deliberately walks off with a paper, and that isn't the reason for stamping them." How a Marauding Rat Met An Untimely End At a Scotsman's Feet i Tom Powell's Assault on the Pest Was Bootless But Successful- and the Powell Home Is Again Canaryless. Tom Powell, gay rendltioner of Hielan' ballads the only man in To peka who ever wore a kilt other than on a stage Its another story about how he went home from a concert one cold winter night without removing his make-up and found that he had left the door key In the pooch o' his breeks and sworn foe to the rodent family, has a good rat story. And it's true, at that. A couple of months st;a Tom's home was invaded by a rat which got Into a cage where Mrs. Powell kept a much prized canary bird. The rat and the canary went out together, and Tom went on the warpath against rata He prosecuted the vendetta with fer vor, vigor and enhusaism, till he was sure that he had eliminated the rats from his premises. JHis neighbors were Inoculated with the same idea, and also staged pogrons with the tribe as victim a They came to the conclusion that the neighborhood had been purged. Paid SS for Canary. So Tom paid 98 for another canary for his wife. The new bird sang sweetly, and 1 11 seemed serene. Until one night last week. Some time after the witching hour of midnight 't commenced to rain, and Mrs. Powell, recalling that the win dows were up. rose from her bed to close them down. Tom lay, canty and conthy, where he was. Until he was rousted from the sheets by a call from his wife. Clad in nightgear suitable to the sea son, and with no footgear, waiting net for his bedroom slippers, he answered the call. He found his wife steadfastly re garding a canary cage with some feathers on the floor. The canary was inside the cage, but also Inside the good-sized rat which perched therein and leered at Tom and his wife. Gaelic epithets rained about the rodent who had despoiled the cage. And when a Scotsman cusses, the ob ject of his vituperation has a right to be nervous. Rat Ix-ft the Cage. The rat left the cage. Simultaneous ly Mrs. Powell left the floor and landed on a chair. Tom's blood was up. He recited a parody, with the reverse English, on Bobby Burns' "To a Mouse," and he supplied other words to substitute for "Wee, cowerin', tim orous beastie.". Tom stood in the only door of the room which was open, and the rat must perforce pass him in order to es. cape the avalanche of Scotch -anathema.

The rat made dash for the door, and Tom, fetched him a bootless kick, "i" the-lug." The- beastie caromed against the opposite wall, and made another dash. Tom kicked him again, and while the rodent lay Inert and stupefied, ran across the room and jumped bodily upon him. The rat died under his bare feet. "And hoot, mon (it wouldn't be possible to wr'.te a tale of a Scotsman without introducing those words into It) "he didh' hse time to gi me e'en wee bit o a bite." Thus is the lcvell home again canaryless, but another specimen of the hated mus decamanua has bitten the dust. Did you eves wonder how state Meteorologist S. D. Flora can tell what the weather for the next day is going to be? The weather forecast is made from a weather map' which is charted daily at each United States weather office. This map shows each storm center in the United States and In which direc tion it is moving. It also shows the areas of high pressure or fair weather and the directino in which they are moving. Flora knows just how far each of these "areas of weather" can travel in a day. For instance, if there aro rains in the Texas Panhandle on Mondayeihere will be rains in Topeka or. Tuesday. It takes the storm just that long to reach Kansas. And according to B. R. Laskowski, who is taking Flora's place now, if there are high teirfpera tures on the gulf coast there are high temperatures in Kansas at the same time. The weather maps are made' from reports which are received in all the weather stations of the United States Immediately following the. morning observations. At 8 o'clock, 75th meridian, time, each morning an ob servation is made at every wer trier station in the United States. All these reports are telegraphed to the five forecast centers of the United States: Washington, Chicago, -San Francisco, New Orleans and Denver. At the forecast stations these reports are all compiled into one large report for each district and telegraphed to each station In the district. Topeka receives its reports from Chicago. The reports are sent in code to re duce the telegraph expense. The air pressure, air temperature, precipita tion, wind direction and wind velocity of each station inethe United States are included in the reports. From this data each meteorologist is able to make a weather map of the United States showing where each storm and fair weather area is and just how soon it will reach his station. In addition to the daily forecast work, the Topeka station compiles all the climatological data for Kansas, issues road, -sorn- and wheat bulletins, and in the winter, a daily shippers forecast. C.

It springs not merely from his car's beauty, nor from its comfort nor its lightness of movement, grateful and wonderful as these charac teristics are to him. .It proceeds from something even more than the de--pendability, the power, the swift acceleration or the basic economy of his Cadillac. Rather, his satisfaction is a blend and a combination of all of these attributes, result ing in a pleasure and a con tentment in his purchase too deep and lasting for comparison. And added to it, and perfect ing it, is the consciousness that he possesses the automo 'T bile that the world accepts as the standard of excellence. WOOD MOTORS CO. SIXTH AVE.

The- Associated Industries, which is prosec, tiling the case thns.ns of names of individual ruembers an nounces that it .will be a Tjendly, ?but thoro test of thi minimum wag en actment. Raises m New Iseuet The action f Ileal today involves (not smly the question as to a reasonable award, but. raises issues as to the rtlght of the industrial court to tn any rrian ner interfere with established WHtra and working; conditions at this time. 'If the contention of tlic Associated" In dustries should be upheld the in aus tral court would be. permitted to 6pen minimum wage controversies -only where there is a showing of immoral tir unwholesome living conditions.; Evi dence in the recent hearing was wiuch to the contrary in fact' showing; that women wage earners were living in Uniformly good environments and moral surroundings. It was also shown that healtriy working conditions prevailed in Kansas sfaops and, fac tories. k Prosecution of the car filed, today will bring a friendly interpretation of the Kansas statutes. It? Is the, con tention of the Associated" Industries that class of legislation under -which the recent Kansas wage feeisicm was made has not been generally upheld by the United States sup terns court. The question of constitutionality t the Kansas law will be setitled In the, case filed in the Shawntee county court. To Protect If gal Status. Individuals loaniag their maynes for the purpose of the suit were declared today to have taken the step' in order to protect their legal status. 1 The en tire issue hinges on oonstltutirsnality of the state law and right of t)ie indus trial court to take up the question on its own motion after a prior sage had 4jeen fixed. It is contended that the ase could thus be reopened only on -evidence that women wage earners could not live properly on their earn ings or that working -conditions and hours -tf employment were neither .healthful nor in keeping with good public policy. Employers An; Interested. EmDlovers of women labor in, the tate are decidedly interested in remits f the litigation.

It is the first test suit In volving the welfare enactment to b brought in this state, laltho various suits have been filed testing reason ebleness of individual orors- In prao tically all of these cases tb.3 employ. ers have been sustained. Law Passed In 11113. The present welfare law was passed by the legislature of 1S13. Work of the department was under the state commissioner of labor, but in charge of a secretary- In 1921 the Jegislature tonsolidated the welfare division and the industrial court together with mine inspection, factory inspection and other wor.. under the industrial court. We are in absolute good faith in this matter." said Harry Sharp, secretary- of the Associated Industries, tn discussing1 the case today. "We lent our utmost co-operation to make the waga, hearinsr a success and to date hv. spent $12,000" in real money aside from a great -deal of time and effort In perfectingia. complete record in the case. Legal' authority f the court to fix this wage or-to take up the question is thj basis of contention in the friendly test autit." E. S. I.

The race will open the new half million dollar speedway, and the two departments are in a fair way of making a hand some sum which will be used for the care of disabled and otherwise needy veterans. "It provides us with a chance of do ing something really worth wblle," J. K. Koonan, adjutant of the Missouri department said. "We can participate in one of the greatest sporting events and at the same time provide for the relief of thousands ot war veterans."

The pups are now about a month old and are eager to sharpen their milk teeth on unprotected hands. Traveling ihu the air with Wild ani mals seems to be a habit of Montana Legionnaires. An airplane brought a fiery bobcat from the Montana wilds straight to Ihe feet of Marshal Foch on the Legion convention platform at Kansas City last year.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 15, 1922 IT t&rz.- Jilt? ,fr-2L 18&sZ3&tTem Orpheum. Well folks you're in for a good time next week. There's no question about It Just listen to this. Clyde "Rube" Hooper and his company of artists will be in town at the Orpheum all next week. Is that not enough to make any one shout with glee? Everywhere you look you can see per sons brushing and cleaning up so as to have everything done up so they can go to, the Orpheum. for nobody in .Xjpeka misses Hooper's shows when he is intown. The last times he was here he made the hit of his stay with his Soldier show, this time he is to pen with "Confusion." The play is funnier than anything you ever saw. Harvey Gatchext. he of tne Immaculate hair, dress ana vol uminous voice, will be as much pres ent as ever.

Farnum playing this part is provided with wonderful opportunities to dis play all his undoubted powers of ex pressing human emotion and pathos. The combination of star and story makes an unsurpassed example of in tense human interest. The production .Is elaborate twenty-four separate interior-sets are used. These include a huge court room scene wherein the trial of the hero is held. Some of the big sets show scenes of fwenty years ago and others are of modern times. The acting of Farnum Is declared to bo the most remarkable 'and ap pealing of his whole career. He first appears as an active ambitious man of forty-five, happily married and the father of two lovely children. Later he appears as a pathetic, sweet-souled old man, daied by long imprisonment. Two added attractions will com- Tilete the picture bill being offered. The Foi'Aews will open the program and following "Perjury" will he shown "Rocking the Boat," a two reel Vanity comedy. The Fox News will be changed on Thursday. At the Crystal. Tom Mix and his rather remarkable horse, Tony, will go thru all the dar ing stunts that have made them both famous, in a new picture, "For Bis Stakes," whichwill be shown the first half of next week at the Crystal. This story is one of rapid action from be ginning to end, with threads of in tense drama and of romance running thru it. she hopes to stop the show with next week. And' all the rest have sent word ahead that they are anxious to Set back to Topeka, for they consider it their home. They have picked To peka from amongst all the cities for their home. The feature picture for the first half of the week is Ethel Clayton- in "The Cradle.' Ethel Clayton has made many pictures but she has yet to make one that can compare with her latest, "The Cradle." Taking the part of a young wife and mother in a domestic drama into which enters the Question of what becomes of the children when the parents are divorced. The play is founded upon the statement that "The power within the cradle rules the world." The play is not only fiction but is a pae;e from life a situation which arises in the life of every "mar ried person and dealing Aith a really serious question of human affairs. "Rube" Hobper and his company will put on another bill the last half FARNUM IN EMOTIONAL PART T "-"4 5 3v WILLIAM PCy pso-icTQN. Scone from "Perjury," human Interest drama, at the Grand all week. of the week, the name of which will be announced later. The feature picture for the last half of the week Is, Marion Davies in "The Brides Play." It- is an excellent Irish comedy drama wherein you get more laughs per sel;cd than you ever had before. At the Jfovelty. Three packed houses saw Sir Harry Lauder when he appeared in TopekA la-:t winter and all three- audiences laughed with glee at the runny bicycle man who was on the b;ll anead or the world famous Scot. IJe was Jimmy Valdare and was acclaimed as tho funniest bicycle actor in vaudeville. That's all interesting enough, but th real news is that Jimmy is coming back to Topeka. He will appear at the Novelty yiree days starting Mon day and will give the same-act with some improvements. lie Is just off contract with: S Harry Lauder, hav ing made the tour of tne world with the great comedian. Valdare comes first on the bill for the first half of the wterr that is to say, he follows the ninth chapter of "The Adventures of Tarzan," the serial which has kept Topeka vaude villians thrilled for two months. Fol lowing Valdare will be Allman and Nevins. a pair which combines melody with mirth with imminent success. The feature of the bill which will appear third on the list will be "The Stuart Girls and Company" who pre sent an act-filled- with real harmony, some character songn will be intro duced in their act that have never been done here. They are sure to please. Gifford and Melton do a little bit of everything. They dance, they sing and they spring some new "gags," but it is the personalities of this gifted pair that i'get them across" Gifford is an eccentric dancer of more than average merit while his partner. Miss Morton, is a chic blond "whose looks make the boys look. Tne Leach-Wal-lin Trio finish the program with an iron jaw and high wire act filled with thrills. The last half bill Is Just as high class as the entertainment offered for the first three dayn. Following the ninth episode of "The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe" there will be a pro gram of mirth song, mystery, beauty and athletics, just as varied as vaude ville patrons like it. At the Grand. What critics have called a more gripping photo-drama than any that has been screened since "Les Miser ables" will be shown at the Grand all week with William Farnum in the leading role. The same critics declare th&t Farnum in his new picture "Per jury," has outdone liis "Jean Val Jean" in the earlier masterpiece.

A large statement, but true, for "Poodles" and the riding Hanneford family consti tute the only big, outstanding feature In the white top world. Getting the Kannefords away from the New York Jlippodroma was no slight task, and beating out circus competitors in the bidding strained even millionaires' purses. The "big thing", comes to Topeka on Monday, July 17. You who have-seen Sells-Floto for the last eight years a first rank circus during the last three seasons, when it nas raced to tne Iront as did Man O "War, will understand when it is arserted that the 1922 performance tops those of '19 and "20 and '21. You will also understand what is meant when it is said, that the show given at the annual spring opening stand in the Chicago Coliseum comes to you intact. Sells-Floto has added another stage to Its arena, making three rings and twe- stages, and has also com bined with Buffalo Bill's Wild'West show. Better than that, they will be filled with feature acts the Kanne fords, the Hobsons, the Hodginis. the Hamido Madrl Arabs, the Otwagas Japanese, the Cindsays. the Whites, the Sieber Seals, the Steiners. Lou Grant, the La Fleurs and scores of others. In the air, the Ward Han fords and the equally celebrated Nel son's big flying troupes, will lead the usual strong Sells-Floto aerial offer ings, with Alfredo, triple somersaulter, and Beatrice, the human top. again among the pleasing midair thrillers. The Sells-Floto animal acts will please, even more so than last year, and, all in all, from parade to final big show display, the "second largest" bids for first place in your hearts.

Washing tnn. I. C. President Harding; has entertained the captains of the steel industry and the captains of the railroad industry at dinner In the White House for the purpose of ascertaining; their views and urging them to cooperate with the government in efforts to better conditions in those Industries and thus stabilize business. Kow there Is to be a White House dinner for- the farm ers. Perhaps before it is all over there, will be a dinner for wage earn ers. In fact the existing Industrial situation seems to indicate that a din ner 'of this sort should take prece dence over the one for the Starmers. The farming industry Is doing much better than some others that could be mentioned. The farmers are not complaining but the wage earners are. In addition to the regular depart ments of the government, headed by members of the president's cabinet there are in Washington twenty-eight Independent bureaus and commissions. including the war finance corporation, the shipping hoard, the. Veterans' bureau, the fed eral trade commission, the interstate commerce commission, the1 civil aerv ico commission and others. The an nual appropriation for these depart ments is in round numbers nearly JGOO.000,000. Might we not appro- 1 riatelydenominate ours sion form of government? .commis- Probably there are few readers of Sickens who do not remember Mark Tapley on account ot his constant fear that he might become "too Jolly." The business and industrial situation in the TJnited States affords a striking parallel to Tapley. There appear to be always among us those who fear tho country will become too prosper ous so they engage in an Industrial battle, with the result that fighting is subc-tittMcd for working. If the re sources of this ..country were not boundless. It could scarcely survive this continuing practice of throwing naonkrey wrenches into the machinery. The interstate commerce commis sion has worked out a plan of co operation with state commissions that B expected to prove of much value in the efficient regulation of railroads. Heretofore there has been conflict 'of policy between federal and state authority, and petitions have been filed alleging that intrastate rates unjustly discriminated against interstate commerce. In -the future it Is proposed to have such controver sies made the basis of Joint bearings, which it Is hoped will reyult in deci sions satisfactory to all concerned.' For the first time since 1902 it is reported, Welsh" coal is being unloaded at the port of Boston. The first shipment includes J. TOO tons, and will be Jbllowed by others as the market demands.- Of course the reason for these coal Importations la the short age occasioned by the strike. The parties to the coal controversy are not; only keeping themselves out of wages and profits, but are booming the industry across the water, and putting money into the pockets of for eigners that would be paid to them selves under normal conditions. A law has been proposed by initia tive' in Oregon amending existing sfate educational laws by providing thai every child between the agea of 8 and. 1C years must attend a public schpol. Exceptions are made for chil dren physically unable to attend, those that have completed the eighth gratia, those living one and a half to three miles from school, according to ages, and those receiving private In struction, provided that auch children must report every three months for examination by a school official. The act. it pass id. will take effect Sep tember 1;. On the surface this proposed law appears to ba designed t reduce illiteracy. But the real mo- Uve probably is to drive out paro- chlal schools by compelling- pupils of those schools to attend the public institutions of learning. This Insidious form of legislation is much too com mon In this country. Probably more than half of the new legislation pro posed from time to time, has an ul terior motive apart from, the gen eral welfare. A LAW GOVE -WRONG The Sherman anti-trust law has been so Ineffective in curbing the processes of those trade combina tions generally regarded as Inimical to the public welfare, and b6 effective in 'preventing trade combinations which might prove advantageous to the prdbllc, that It baa aroused a wide spread and growing sentiment for' its repeal or modification. It has been ignored, set aside and made the sub ject of so many exceptions as to ren der it practically worthless. Inability "of large commercial in terests to unite the agencies of pro duction,' transportation and distribu- tion without violating the anti-trust laws or the federal trade act is large ly responsible for the present high cost of living and the high cost of everything else to the consumer in the. opinion of the Mining Congress Journal.... J The advantages of cooperative com blnations both to the small producer and the consuming public are well illustrated by the success which has been achieved by such organizations' as the various California, fruit ex changes. These organizations, ex empted from the provisions of the Sherman law, have been able, to de velop scientific and efficient methods for the effective distribution of the output of a great body 'of scattered producers, and their work has tended to lower costs. The success of these efforts, iir fact, was the primary rea son for the recent passage of the co operative marketing bill making pos sible the same combinations for agri cultural producers. tJhder these circumstances, is it not reasonable to believe thai a rhodificav tion of the Sherman law as applied to industry would, tinder proper super vision, result in greater efficiency and lower costs in the production of many products? As the law stands, the only method by which necessary econ omies can be obtained is thru the ac tual merging of Individual industrial concerns into great combinations of concentrated wealth. A proper modi fication of the Sherman law would make it possible to obtain the benefit of cooperative- combinations without the necessity of an outright sale of industrial properties. The provisions of the Sherman law, aa they nowj stand, not only tend to prevent the application of modern and efficient methods to industry, but they actually defeat the aims of the law Itself. The elimination of waste and the introduction of economy thru combi nations of enterprises dependent upon one another, should Insure conserva tion and promote the public interest. Therefore, the time seems opportune for the government to take a forward step In cooperative business adminis tration by providing an amendment to existing laws which will permit any consolidation of business enterprises in production, transportation and dis tribution when the public Interest will be served thereby. The essence of such a plan would be the public interest. There la every reason why the gov ernment should function; helpfully in matters of business and provide means to establish confidence between the government and business Interests. The government would, under such a plan," intervene In the affairs of busi ness only in a constructive way. Probably the most Important fac tors which enter into the cost of any commodity are those of transporta tion and distribution. The reason these elements of cost are so great is that these agencies are usually completely divorced- If an industry could go to the government with a proposal for the consolidation of all facilities for production, transporta tion and distribution needed for the promotion of that Industry and could show. that such consolidation would facilitate production, prevent waste, reduce costs, eliminate duplication, and expedite delivery to the ultimate consumer, all of which would be in the public Interest. government agencies should have the authority, after appropriate investigation, to al low such consolidation to be made. In former years, production- was ac complished In small volume at high unit cost, while distribution was rela tively local and distribution costs rela tively low. Today, we have a reversal of the Situation of a quarter of a cen tury ago with mass production at small cost and national distribution at high cost to the consumer. It seems highly probable that if congress should amend existing laws so that consolidations could be made, when ever In the public Interest, without violating the anti-trust laws, great economies could be effected both in production and in distribution. Im provement in productive and distribu tive processes with consequent re duction In costs to the consumer can not take place as the result of legis lation except in so far as legislation may help to set in motion economic forcea to this end. Young Mr. Roosevelt, in a speech to the Elks at Atlantic City, made the future existence of the republic de pendent upon the punishment of those guilty of the Herrin massacre. If the survival of this country depend on that accomplishment, we may as well bid good-bye to the good old TT. S. A. Probably nothing la more remote than Justice in the Herrin case. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau JTREDKRIO J. BASKET, IMreataar,' Washington. D. C A HOTEIi DIET SERVICE Washington, D. C. July 12.-Prohl-bltion la not the only serious handicap that Kcw Tork hotels have to con tend wlthNriowadays. The public's re. cently developed passion for dieting for one ailment and another is prov ing equally fatal to profits. People are not dining out nearly so frequent ly as they used to do, because the ordinary hotel menu does not cater to theirpeculiar dietetic requirements. But there Is at least one hotel man in New Tork who remains unper turbed by the new vogue for scientific dieting. Ke is even enthusiastically In favor of It. as he has always been in favor of anything that the public wants. "It is useless to complain about the public's changing demands," he said recently. "The thing to do is to supply them." And ho has done so. He has introduced into his hotel a scientific diet service consisting of a wide variety of menus especially de signed to till the needs of all sorts of fdleters. whether they be in the deadly grip of diabetes or merely afflicted with overweight. We found him sitting behind a flat topped mahogany dealt in his small balcony office at the head of a flight of wide marble stairs in that dignified red brick building on the corner of Fifth avenue'-and 84th street known as the Hotel Waldorf-Astoria. He is a short, broad man, fastidiously dressed, with a. square, impressive face, black and white hair, and dark, kindly eyes. His appearance together with his grave, courteous manner sug gest a judge, or a bank president or possibly a minister of the gospel. But he is none of these things. He is Oscar of the Waldorf one of New York's famous personalities, y To the average New Yorker; wtrose one and only standard of value is motl ey, Oscar is known merely as the highest-paid chef in America, but he is really much more than this. He is a culinary artist of world wide renown. Presidents have lavished rapturous praise upon his talents; many ecstatic accounts have been written concerning certain of his pre prohibltlon concoctions, and he has been- decorated by royalty. If he had lived in another country, he would doubtless long ago have been knighted, but the most that he can expect in this country is perhaps an honorary D. S. degree from some appreciative university, impressed With tne Im portance of the new scientific diet service. Menu for Every Need. Every kind of disturbance In 'the digestive tract is covered by this servT ice. Have you colitis or rheumatism or high blood pressure? Well, there is a special menu for your benefit con taining only the kind of dishes that are suitable for your particular condi tion. Here., is one to consult if you are-overweignt; another if you are en- Joying advanced age and still another a Jolly one decorated with Mother Goose sketches if you are a child. The purpose of the service, as ex-plained-ln the diet service guide fold er, which 3s handed to each guest, it to simplify dieting by making foods for special conditions, properly diag nosed, easily available, and to have all food prepared to meet the health requirements of each individual. All of the menus were designed in con sultation witn Dr. Clarence William LIcb. a well known medical authority on nutritional disorders. "The new menus," explained Oscar, -"are-extremely popular nOt only with the public but with our employes, for whom they- save a great deal of time and effort. -Before they were pre pared we had a large number of peopls taking up the waiters' time explaining not to put butter in this, pepper must be left out of that, and that no, sugar must be put in something else. Now all of these confusing directions are unnecessary." Suppose that hyper-acidity of the stomach,, for instance, is your pet complaint. ou see by the guide that Menu -No. 4 applies to you, f nd ask the waiter for that. On this menu all the fruits listed are stewed and unsweet ened; all the breads are stale or toasted or otherwise hardened, but served with liberal supplies of fresh butter, and while tea (weak) is men tioned, coffee does not appear at all. Foods for Fat Folks. Menu No: 2, which has been ar ranged for the great multitudes of Americans who are overweight, also contains a variety of hard breads, of a different kind, however, from those listed on Menu No. 4. Members of the fraternity of the obese must never eat any breadstuff tenderer than bran biscuit or gluten bread. They must confine themselves to lean meat; avoid rich; thick soups, refrain from dashing cream or sugar in their tea and cof fee; use lemon juice Instead of may onnaise upon salads, and never eat anything sweeter than orange juice or stewed pears (without sugar) for dessert. There are eight scientific menus in all, covering a list of .twenty con ditions, lnclud'ng childhood. With the exception of Menu No. 2. for over weight, and Menu No. which Is for diabetes and Kb. 8, which is for chil dren, all of the other menus can be ued for more than one affliction. Thus No. 5. 'designed to aid those suffering from colitis, is also suita ble for malnutrition and underweight, while No. fs for rheumatism as well as neuritis. In addition to observing the direc tions on the menus, the guests are also urged to avoid over-eating. Imperfect mastication, and mental perturbation at meals. These hints, which are ac cepted .with sober appreciation by those who are accustomed to dieting, usually create a good deal of levity among the more frivolous, youthful patrons who have not yet had occa sion to fear the perils of dyspepsia. As we were heavily engaged with a bran biscuit at luncheon, the other day, we overheard the following flippant com ments from a blithe flapper at the next table: "Gracious. Tom, this Is no place for me! You know how I always gobble at noon. You should have seen the scathing glance our waiter gave me as he brought the soup, and saw that all the ripe olives at my plate were gone. Now I know why the orchestra confines itself to slow waits music It's to keep our mastication from be coming speedy,- of course. But per haps this rule applies only to these scientific menus. "Perhaps I shouldn't. Jest," con tinued the young lady soberly. "What is that platitude about people Jesting at scars who never knew well, intestinal-toxaemia. for instance I wonder what it is. It must be widely prevalent, for it heads the list. Why didn't we try ono of these.' Let's see I'm not convalescent nor rheumatie nor diebetie nor a victim of angina pectoris,- but what about colitis? It has a sort of fatal sound. Bo you .tmnnMt it's anvthing like colic? -Any- i way, it should be satisfactory to a I famished person like me, for' it's the i same menu they give you for malnu j trition. Oh4 Tom, I forgot weren't you dieting to get thin this winter?" "i was," said Tom grimly, "and I I still am, and I intend to snitch this I overweight menu: Wish I had seen j It sooner. It took me 15 minutes just I now to pick- out some non-fattening foot on the general menu. m DA!iCI!iG FEET BY JANE PHELPS DESERVED HAPPINESS Chapter 78. Gertie had been married three years. A tiny boy clung closely to her as she moved about the ranch. Both khe and Tom had been perfectly hacoT. altho they weren't without their little disagreements inevitable Jjetween married people. But as Tom said "We always kisa and make up be fore we leave each other, so our spats don't amount to much." Jennie was teaching school, a kin dergarten, and doing well. Tim was in school, preparing for college where he was to take the course in agricul ture. Mrs. Cummings was happy in her children, immensely proud of her grandson. Before his arrival, she had Journeyed to the ranch and had remained until he was abput six weeks old. The glory of Gertie's home, her life, was to her an ever increasing wonder. That a girl of hers should have such a home, ser vants to wait upon her, a husband that adored her seemed, she told Mrs. Arnold, "almost too much." "If Pa could only have lived to see her," she- added. "Perhaps if he had lived it wouldn't have happened!" the practical. Jeal ous neighbor replied. She never ceased bewailing the difference be tween Gertie's life and Lilly's Lilly from whom they had heard only once since she left, and then it was but to tell them her, baby had died. "Pa thought a heap or nis chil dren," Mrs. Cummings went on, un mindful. "He always was "talkin about havin' them educated." 'Oh. well- he s gone God rest Bis soul!"' And you should see little Tom. Mrs Arnold! -the split image of his Pa! -And Gertie that tickled cause it'B so. She says to me: "I wouldn't have had him- look like me for any thing. Mai Oh, well, maybe the next one." That's what I says when Tom said he would "rather the boy looked like his mother. It would just about kill you to hear them kinda quarrelin' about it. And if the "boy ain't spoiled with all the pettin' he gits It will be a wonder. Why even that Chink is run nin 'after him, fussin' with him ail the time. I never thought the day would come when I'd have anything to do with a Chinaman, but I guess there s good Chinks as well as good Irish. Anyway he's no haythen." "You had a fine time out there didn't you?" .Mrs. Arnold asked rather wistfully. She never had been outside of New York save to Coney Island, and the nearby beaches: "Yes. Mrs. Arnold, I did that! I wish yeur Lilly had stayed with Len. They might have had a little home in the country some day where you could have visited.". "Sure they might! But no such luck for me. Gertie was always a good girl, always thinking of you." Then:- "Our- girls started even, but they're endin" a long ways apart." "Don't give up, Mrs. Arnold, Lilly may -come backeiomeday "And do you think I would be takln' her back after vhat she's done? Dts gracin' me! She's made her bed. She can lay in it!" "Sure you're wrong, Mrs. Arnold. No matter what she's done she's your own child. And I ain't so sure you ain't a bit to blame yourself. You was too easy with Lilly, gave her her own way too much; let her think her own pleas ure, how she looked was of more ac count than anything else-" "I know but I hated to cross her," Mrs. Arnold sighed heavily as she closed the door. They had been talk ing in the hallway. "It's just wonderful how things has gone with me," Mrs. Cummings solilo quised when again at work in the kitchen, "t guess if a body does the best they can, the best they know how, and is honest and square in their deal ing they come out right someway. And I guess too that if we ain't too easy like with the children, if we learn them to thinks of others, not to be selfish, but kind and lovin' they is go in' to turn out all right too one way or another. But we got to show them we love 'em even while we is strict; cause if we don't being strict ain't goin' to be any good. And the Lord be praised no matter how poor a body Is they has got love. Just as much love as the rich pnes, rnore maybe. Gertie always knowed "i loved her. even when she had to go without things the other girls -had her earnln' the money too. Oh, well! Talkin' don't change things much, but I heard Gertie readin' once, she said: 'God helps them what help them selves,' or somethin' like that. Who ever wrote that knew what they was taiKin aDout. ana -sometimes we has to do a mighty lot of helpin'!" Mrs. Cummings ceased her soliloquy to stir up hot biscuits for Tim and Jennie perhaps she considered them a part of the help she gave. THE END.

(Prom Philadelphia Pnblle Ledgr.) I We r-ave some interesting corre spondence from O. C. Graves, who styles himself the Fortune-Maker of .Arkansas. "If,", writes Mr. Graves, "Fowler paid $15,000 at Burkburnett; if Bob Waggoner paid J3.300; if Hog Creek paid $10,000 one every one hundred dollars Unvested I should pay you in the Drew County lease piol the same amounts on every $3 0 invested with me, for I consider my chabcea in Drew -County- and' the "l!aV that I am getting with these wonderful holdings, every" bit of ten t'ntcs as good as-Fowler, Bob Wag goner and Hog Creek." There is no escaping 'Mr. Graves logic. If the "play"- keeps up his holdings probably will yieldto hlro ten times the amount he.took from the other properties mentioned. What we can't understand is why Mr. Graves wishes to sell, for a merely nominal sum, an Interest in his hold ings to persons who are total stran gers to him. Why doesn't he keep the entire acreage? At any rate, as a sound "business man, we strongly advise against his present procedure. The probabilities are. if he continues to push his sales campaign, that a majority interest in his holdings presently will be in the hands of persons who--are entire strangers to him. They must not be in sympathy with his methods; they may not approve his management of the properties. -Minority stockholders are always critical and perennially dissatisfied. They might easily get together and vote Mr. Graves out of any connection with 'the properties. He would then be exactly where he started and under the necessity of or ganizing another oil company..

On awaking this morning. I glanced out of my window. The winding road, just beyond, flanked with trees and shrubbery, presented a lovely picture. There was no Sun around.

Dorothy Dix Talks BY XtOBOTHT BIX WesWa sTlgace rata W Husband or Children 2. For motherhood Is a demoralizing passion with a host of women. It takes away their perspective on life. and wrecks their sense of values. They cannot see any farther than the cradle, and they cannot understand how they can have any Interest- or duty paramount, to those of mother hood. Above all, thev cannot understand that while many women are all mother,, very few men are all father. Vast numbers of women absolutely rsink themselves in their children, and have no- thought or desire beyond them, but while most men love their children, and are wiMmg -to sacrifice themselves to their children to a rea sonable degree, they still want a life of their own. They want the pleas ures, and amusements, and compan ionship to which they have been ac customed, and do not find the specta cle of a sleeping infant an exciting diversion for a whole evening. They like to hear their babies goo-goo, and then pass on to more intellectual con. versation. The average man does not relish having his nose put out of Joint by a pink faced creature with no nose at all. He resents having to take a back seat in the house he 'supports, and when he finds that his wife is too much occupied with the absorbing rites of baby worship to chumvwtthj him any more, he is very apt to drift back to the old haunts and old pleas ures of his bachelorhood. Thus it happens that while mother Is holding babys hand while it sleeps, some other woman is frequently holding father's hand, and in innumerable di vorce cases if the real co-respondent was cited it -would be some chubby infant who could be proved to have alienated the wife's affection from her husband. Of course a woman's' duty to her children is great, but she also has a great duty to the man she marries. add she not only has no right to put her-children before him. but she does a, foolish thing for herself When ehe does It. For the time will come when her children must, of necessity leave her, and then she is forlorn and lone ly indeed if she has permitted them to so- absorb-, her interests and thoughts that she has nothing in com-, mon with her husband. In twenty-one or two years at the most and they go by like the flash of an. eye children are grown; and set about their own business -of 'life. Then woman's house is left unto he desolate-Tinlees she and -her hus bamd are comrades, and they are never that if she has preferred her children before him. and given to them all her thoughts and Interests. The woman who makes a fetish of motherhood does well- to think of this before she absorbs -herself in her chil dren. She also doej well to remember that neglected husbands turn out Just as badly as neglected chiWren. and that while you can hire a trustworthy woman to laKe care or your children in your absence, there is no trust worthy lady whom you can engage to look after your husband. That is a Job you have to attend to yourself. (Copyright. 1922. by the Wheeler Syn- ilcate Inc.) Questions Answers Q.

Linn Mnvhnv nushed open the gate ane mtr-nHm. tin the bricked path and sat down on the steps. As he laid his hat down Miss Constance noticed that his good-looking young face was anxious. "How Is everything at the bank. Linn,?" she asked him, knittingaway at another gay sweater for -her pretty niece, Jean. "Fine I am in line for promotion soon Mr. Day is leaving the first of the month." The momentary en thusiasm died out of his face and he reddened. -"Have you heard from er Tean lately. Miss Constance?" "Last night here is the letter read it if you like, my dear," said Jean's aunt, as she gave him a bulky envelope. She knitted busily as he read and reread the pages. At last he gave them back to her. "Thank you," he murmured. "Razzanti has told her she has the soul of an artist and she is in the seventh heaven of delight." "Wish he had told her that she had the soul of a housewife and con found it all, diss Rood. I'm cot fit to talk to any one tonight:" "My poor boy," sympathized Miss I Constance; "I really believe. Linn, that I understand Jean thoroly have I I not been mother and father to her j since her childhood? This painting notion will soon wear away and she will come home disillusioned ana set tle down. Meantime she is happy. Can't you watt a little longer?" "I'll fry to. Miss Constance you're such a good sport yourself I know you mtss her see you later He jammed on his hat and rushed out of the gate. As he tramped down the road his doggedly planted feet seemed to pound out unanswerable questions. 'If Jean la really happy, why does she write so wistfully of the garden and the home folks in Elmdale? If she is a genius, why is she not ab sorbed In her painting ii riazxanii, the painting master, really told her she would succeed, why had she cried? If she didn't care for the work why not come home and marry him?" Certainly tnose were tear mis ters on the thick, creamy pages of her letter! "The next holiday I'll go down and find out," he muttered at last. What, really nappenea was mis: The temperamental Razzanti had given Jean her sixth lesson. His greedy eye had noted the lean leather wallet as it went back into her hand bag after ehe had paid him. She tried to arrange terms for payments of the next ten lessons until she had sold small still-life study of flowers and basket of vegetables. "Sell? "You-a sell that? Anyslng? Ha!" He paced the dusty studio with increasing wrath that one so unworthy should take up nis vaiuame time. That-a daub? Looks like tomat can bah!" He shook his fat fingers at her in rage and Jean with ner tnings clutched to her breast hastened to leave the nlace. As she went down the stairs to the hot street, Razzanti put his head out of his door and hissed one word after her.- "Saprlsti!"- Jean turned furiously- In Elmdale one did hot specialize in other than Latin.' Greek on. French. But her tongue trembled tor speech. "B-s-spaghetti!" she hisstd back' at him and had the last word. Back in her room at tne boarding house, she washed her brushes and cleaned up her painting boxes with tear-blind eyes.. She was giving-up a long-cherished plan her life's ambi tion. She had saved the money little bv little and Raszantrs exorbitant charges had absorbed her scanty cap ital. -She had learned little for he was but a- huge fraud, and had been anuarht thru -an advertisement. She could not go home to Elmdale without money and there was Linn Moworay to face. How every one would laugh at her for a failure! That evening after a- meager dinner at a funny little tea shop, she told- her story to the kindhearted girl who sat at the desk. "That's a shame. Miss Rood hon estly, I wish I knew how to help you. You 'wouldn't want to wait on tho tables; now T" "Yes,' -I would.'a.nd thank you." cried delighted Jean. In a few days the girl discovered that Jean could make fluffy muff Inn and cup cakes that would melt in a hungry customer's mouth, and so Jean was promoted and the patronage of the tea-shop increased wonderfully. Soon she had charge" of the cooking and gradually her pile of savings in creased. .One day, behind the dainty bluj screen, where Jean was concocting a delicious salad, she heard the sounl of vaguely familiar voices.

"Anil be sure and let me know if Dor othy does become engaged I shall want to send her something very spe cial for her trousseau." Jean, very white and grave, finished her work for the day. Then she ob- talned few .days' leave of absence and went to Elmdale. She arrived at twilight and walked down the street, drinking in the beauty of the familiar scenes, hearing the evening song of the thrush and the orchard oriole.' She passed the Grey heme and heard young voices in the screened veranda, and wondered if Linn had transferred his allegiance to Dorothy, the girl who stayed- at home. Miss Constance was sitting in her little porch when Jean opened the gate. She arose with a glad cry and went down the path to meet the home sick girl, some one else arose irom the shadows and 'took her out of the older woman's arms.

jHEARTANO home problems 1 Written for The State Journal BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON Dear Mrs. Thompson: I was mar ried quite young at the. age of 21 years. I found I couldn't live- witli my wife as she ran with too many fellows and I left her. I happened to go with a few girls and I took a fancy to the prettiest one. My friend got sore at me and he told her I Was married and a lot of other things that were not true. Now she won't talk to me. I do hate to lose so nice a girl and yet I don't know what to do. A few days ago I was standing on the corner talking to another fellow. She came along, but I didn't see her until she was almost in front of me. She spoke to me but passed right on. I called her up that night for a date but she wouldn't go. It seems as if every time I see her she is so nice and pretty that my heart longs for her. She told another fellow that slie liked me but she said, "You know how his wife will feel." I haven't lived with my wife for three years and so what would b the difference. I am going away for several months and I long to see her all alone. Could you tell me how? Do ybu think this trick I have planned out is a fair one? My friend and his girl are going to a nearby town to a. celebration and are going to take her along. They are going to use my car to run down,-with and I am going to take the train down and meet her there. She does not know, this or she would not go. Do. van think I am doing the right thing by following her? I really love this girl with all my heart. In order to show you how much I will tell you what I am doing I am suing my wife for a divorce, only I didn't file the papers here be cause I didn't want the girl to find out about it. Please state what you think best. I ho 0b I haven't done anything to be ashamed of. LONELY JACK.

Six big- new departments and vari ous contests and demonstrations never held here before will bo features of the Free fair this year. Among- them will be the department for the blind, the Kansas potato show, the radio de partment, the state fish and game ex v.ihlt ttta rtmirv nroducts department. the home demonstration department, the rural dramatics contest, the con test for Juvenile bands and the spring lamb contest.

Manufacturers are al ready making a "run" on the fair as sociation for space for exhibiting farm machinery of all kinds, household ap pliances, labor saving devices, farm heating and lighting systems, silos, road machinery and various other im plements. The automobile show prom ises to eclipse all former exhibitions. Particular attention nas oeen given the boys and rlrls of Kansas this year, and more than ls.000 in premiums has been set aside for their Deneiit. m boys" and girls' clubs will have a spe cial building filled with exhibits, where contests and demonstrations will also be held. The features for the young folks this year will be the baby beef contest, the spring lamb contest and the various club contests. Big Racine Card. Surely the horse race fans will be amply satisfied this fall. There will be four davs of horse races Monday. Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and two days of auto racing Wednesday and Saturday. In the early closing races alone, 19S trotters and pacers have been en tered, numbering among them some of the best horses in the west. The larger stakes which the Free fair has offered during the last two years have proved their values as drawing cards for the fast horses and this is what the race fans want. Most of last year's winners will be seen on the track again this year, competing with new ones from almost every section of the middle west. There will probably be an equal number of horses entered in the late closing races. Other amusements will consist of a program of big time circus and vaudeville acts not seen here before; a --big night show In front df the grandstand; a fireworks display and the Con T.' Kennedy shows on the Sunflower Trail. These shows are considered among the cleanest and best on the road. There will also be band concerts morning, afternoon and evening and Al Sweet's singing band, which made such a hit last year, will play a return engagement to set the hearts of the Jazs lovers a-flutter. There will also be a saxophone sex tette and two singers of wide renown. To Be Many Contests. There will also be scores of con tests that will be both educational and amusing. These will include the con test for Juvenile bands a new fea ture the contests of the various boys' and girls' clubs, the old fiddlers' con test, horseshoe pitchers' contest, state spelling match, the milk maids' con test, the rural dramatics contest and the amateur musicians' contest. The home demonstration depart ment is a new one and will be of par ticular interest to women. It will consist of entries made by the home demonstration agents of the various counties, or by individuals sanctioned by the county farm bureaus. The de partment will be in charge of Mrs. Julia Kiene. home demonstration agent of Shawnee county. The market egg section will be a new feature of the poultry depart ment. Prizes will be given for the best dozen eggs of various kinds. In the new dairy department premiums are offered on butter, cheese, milk and cream. SBVESr SEKTENCK SEKMONS.

Brown, city health of ficer, has) compiled semi-annual re port on communicable diseases in To peka. and on vital statistics, which. covers the first six months of 1122, from January 1 to July The re port is being mailed to all physicians in the city. The report shows that there have been 615 fewer cases of communicable disease reported during the first half of 1921, than were reported during the same period in 1S21. and 3,404 fewer cases than were reported dur ing the same period In IS 20. These figures do not include) tuberculosis or social diseases. There were 808 cases of chlckenpox. pneumonia, influenza, diphtheria, scar let fever and whooping cough, small pox, measles, typhoid fever, erysipelas, mumps and trachoma reported during the half year. Of these diseases, chlckenpox "led with 289 cases. Pneumonia was sec ond with 182 eases. Other diseases were reported as follows: Influenza, 116; diphtheria. 108; scarlet fever, forty-five; whooping cough, thirty, six; smallpox, twelve; measles, eight; typhoid fever, five; erysipelas, three; mumps, three, and trachoma, one. Included 2 School Kids. Of these cases 228 were of persons under school age. 329 were pupils in the city schools, and "all others" In cluded 248. Potwln school led all the) schools of the city with sixty cases reported; Central Park school was second with twenty-six, and McKinley school was iniru wun twenty-nve, there were twenty-one schools with less than teu cases reported from each. The Sixth ward led all other wards in the city with 208 cases; the Second ward had 168 cases, and the Third and Fifth wards tied for third place with 116 cases each. The First ward had the lowest n.imber, ninety-nine cases, and the Fouith ward had 105. For the white race, mora cases of communicable disease were reported in females than In males, a condition reversed in the reports on colored and Mexican population. There were 244 mala whites re ported as victims of some communis- caDie disease, and 880 female whites; thirty-nine colored males and twenty, five colored females; thirteen Mexican males and seven Mexican females. Shows Decrease In Disease. In a comparison of the number of the nine most common communi cable diseases for the first half of the years 1919. 1920. 1921 and 1922. it is shown that five show decreases rrom tne figures for 1921. while four show increases, and that for two dis eases, measles and smallpox, the num ber for 1922 is the lowest recorded for any similar period In the last four years. The complete comparison la as fol lows: 11 1920 1021 1922 Measles 10 SOT 527 8 StarJet ferer 10 SI 45 Lhtckenpox 81 89 458 SS IMphtherla 2 2S 3T 108 Pneumonia- 2 09 61 182 TJhooplnr cough S 401 so Sd Typhoid fe-rer 4 11 10 s Influenza 1.8S3 1,800 4 llfl Smallpox 27 92 128 12 In considering the vital statistics births and deaths for the first six months of each of the past eight years, it develops. that two years, 1920 and 1921, exceeded 1922 in birth rate, and 191T tied it.

After the Removal to Babylon Jeconiah had a son Shealtiel: Shealtiei waa the father of Zerubbabel; Zerubbabel; of Abiud; Abiud of faiakim; Eliakim of Asor; Asor of Zadok; Zadok of Achlm; Achlm ef Eliud; Eliud of Eleasar; Eleazar of Matthan; M&tthan of Jacob: and Jacob of Joseph the husband of Mary, who was the mother of JESUS who is called CHRIST. There are therefore. In all, fourteen generations from Abraham to David; fourteen from David to the Removal to Babylon; and fourteen from the Removal to Babylon to the Christ. The. Birth' of Jesus The oircumstances of the birth of Jesus Christ were these- After his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they were united In marriage, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. But Joseph her husband, being a .kind-hearted mannd unwilling publicly to disgrace her. had determined to release her privately from the betrothal. But while he was contemplating this step, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to bring home your wife Mary, for she is with -child through the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a Son and you are to call His name JESUS, for He -it is who will save His People from their sins." All this took place In fulfilment of what the Lord bad spoken through the Prophet. 'Mark! the maiden will be with child and will give birth to a son. And they will call His name Immanu-el." (Isa. viL 14) a word which signifies 'God with us (Isa. vitl. 8, 10). When, Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded, add brought home his wife, but did not live with her until she had given birth to a son. The child's name he called JESUS. Tbe Visit of tbe Magi Now after the birth of Jesus, which took place at Bethlehem in Judaea in the reign of King Herod, excite ment was produed in Jerusalem by the arrival of certain Magi from the east. Inquiring. "Where is the newly born kins; of the Jews? For we have seen his Star in the east, and have come here to do him homage." Reports of this soon reached fhe king, and greatly agitated not only him but all the people of Jerusalem. So he assembled all the High Priests and Scribes of the people, and anxiously asked them where the Christ was to be born. "At Bethlehem In Judaea," they replied; "for so It stands written In State Supt. Wooster and her pol- idea, strongly endorsed by W. C. T. TJ., and Good Government club. FRIDAY. Closing exercises of the Kansas Educational and Industrial Institute stammer school held Friday evening. the worda of the Prophet, 'And thou, Bethlehem in the land of Judah, By no means the least honourable art thou among princely places in Judah! For from thee shall come a Prince One who shall be the Shepherd of My People Israel.' "-(Mic. v. 2). Thereupon Herod -sent privately for the. Magi and ascertained from them the exact time of the star's appearing. He then directed them to go to Bethlehem, adding, "Go and make careful Inquiry about the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and do him homage." After hearing what the king said, they went to Bethlehem, while, strange to say, the star they had seen in tbe east led them on until It came and stood over the place where the babe was. When they saw the star, the sight filled them with intense joy. So they entered the house; and when they saw the babe with His mother Mary, they prostrated themselves and did Him homage, and opening their treasure-chests offered gifts to Him gold, frankincense, and myrrh. But being forbidden by God in a dream to return to Herod, they went back to their own country by a different route- When they were gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said. The Kecapo Into Egypt "Rise: take the babe and His mother and escape to Egypt, and remain there till I bring you word. For Herod is about to make search for the child in order to destroy Him." So Joseph roused himself and took the babe and His mother by night and departed into Egypt. There he remained till Herod's death, that what the Lord had said through the Prophet might be fulfilled. "Out of Egypt I called My Son" (Hos.'xi. 1). Til a Children at Bethlehom cruelly killed Then Herod, finding that the Magi had trifled with him. was furious, and sent and massacred all the boys under two years of age, in Bethlehem and all Its neighbourhood, according to the date he- had so carefully ascertained from the Magi. Then were these words. Spoken by the Prophet Jeremiah, fulfilled. "A voice was heard In Ramah, Wailing and bitter lamentation: It was Rachel bewailing her children. And she refused to be comforted because they were no more" (Jer. xxxi. 15). The Return from Egypt But after Herod's death an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, and said to him, "Rise from sleep, and take the child and His mother, and go into the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the chad's life are dead." So hi roused himself and took the child and His mother and came into the land of Israel. But hearing that Archelaua had succeeded his father Herod on the throne of Judaea, he waa afraid to go there; and being instructed by God in a dream he withdrew into Galilee, and went and settled in a town called Nazareth, in order that these words spoken through the Prophets might bs fulfilled, "He shall be called a Nazarene. John the Baptist preaches Judgement and Repentance About this time John the Baptist roads his appearance, preaching in the Desert or. Judaea. "Repent," he said. "for the lis The big rain storm Tuesday night The "Solons" and the Muskogee caused the death of many a gallant team each won a game in the Wed antomobfle engine. nesday doubleheader. SATURDAY. The open air market in front of the city auditorium scheduled to open Saturday. Kingdom of the Heaven is now close at hand." He it is who was spoken 0 through the Prophet Isaiah when he said, "The voice of one crying aloud, In the Desert prepare ye a road for the Lord: Make His high way straight'" (Isa. xl. 2). This man John wore a garment of earners hair, and a loincloth of leather; and he lived upon locusts and wild honey." Then large numbers of people went out to him people from Jerusalem and from all Judaea, and from the whole of the Jordan valley and were baptized by him In the Jordan, making full confession of their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he exclaimed. He predlcta Christ's Appearing and Work O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Therefore let your lives prove your change of heart; and do not imagine that you ean say to yourselves. 'We have Abraham as our forefather, for I tell you that God can raise up descendants for Abraham from these stonea And already the axe is lying at the root of the trees, so that every tree which does not produce good fruit will quickly be hewn down and thrown into the fire. I indeed am baptizing you in water on a profession of repentance; but H who is coming after me is mightier than I: His sandals I am not worthy to carry for moment; He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire. His winnow-ing-shovel is in His hand, and He will make a thorough clearance of His threshing-floor, gathering His wheat into the storehouse, but burning up the chaff in unquenchable fire." Christ's double Baptism t Just at that time Jesus, coming from Galilee to the Jordan, presents Himself to John to be baptized by him. John protested. It is I," he said, "who have need to b. baDtiaed bv vou. and do vou come to me?" "Let it be so on this occasion. Jesus replied; "for so we ought to fulfil every religious duty." Then he consented; and Jesus was baptized, and immediately went up from the water. At that moment the heavens opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him, while a voice came from Heaven, saying. This is My Son. the dearly loved. in whom is My delight." Christ is tempted in the Desert At that time Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the Desert in order to be tempted by the Devil. There He fasted for forty days and nights; and after that He suffered from hunger. So the Tempter came and said, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to turn into loaves." It is written," replied Jesus. 'It is not on bread alone that a man shall live, but on wnatsoever God shall appoint' (Deut. viii. 3). Then the Devil took Him to the Holy City and caused Him to stand on the roof of the Temple, and said, If you are God's Son, throw yourself. down: for it is written. To His angels He will give orders concerning thee. L And on their hands they shall bear thee up. Lest at any moment thou shouldst strike thy foot s gainst a stone' .Pa xcl. 11, 12). "Again it is written,'; replied Jesus, Thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to the proof (Deut. vi. Then the Devil took Him to the top of an exceedingly lofty mountain, from which he caused Him to see all the Kingdoms of the world and their splendour, and said to Him, "All this I will give you. It you will kneel down and do me homage." "Begone, Eatan!"-Jesus replied; "for it is written. To the Lord thy God thou shalt do homage, and to Him 'alone .shalt thou Iretder worship'" Deut vi. 1). Thereupon the Devil left Him, and angels at once came and ministered to Him. Christ goes Into Galileo Now when Jesus heard that John was thrown into prison. He withdrew into Galilee, and leaving Nazareth He went and settled at Capernaum, a town by the Lake on the frontiers of Zebulun and Naphtali. in order that these words, spoken through the Prophet Isaiah, mlght.be fulfilled, "Zebulun's land and Naphtali's land; The road by the Lake; the country beyond the Jordan; Galilee of the Nations! ifii 1 1 1 jL FORECAST. Register before next Friday night if you want to vote at the. August primaries. The people who were dwelling In darkness have seen a brilliant light; And on those who were dwelling In the region of the shadow of death. On them light has dawned" (Isa. ix. 1, 2). -He begins to preach. Fowr Disciples called From that time Jesus began to preach. "Repent," He said. "for the Kingdom of the Heavens Is now close at hand." And walking along the shore of the Lake of Galilee He saw two brothers Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew throwing a drag-net into the Lake: for .they were fishera And He said to them, "Come and follow me. and I will make you flahera of men." So they Immediately left their nets and followed Him. As Ha went further on. He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zabdi and his brother John, in the .boat with their father Zabdi mending their nets; and He called them. And they at once left the boat and their father, and followed Him. His Preachina; and Miracles throughout Galilee Then Jesus travelled through all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and curing every kind of disease and infirmity among the people. Thus His fame spread through all Syria; and they brought all the eiek to Him, the people who were suffering from various diseases and pains demoniacs, epileptics, paraly tics; and He cured them. And great crowds followed Him, coming from Galilee, from the Ten Towns, from Jerusalem, and from beyond the district on the other side of the Jordan. The Sermon on the Mount Seeing the t.-ultitude of people, Jesus went up the Hill. There He seated Himself, and when His disciples came to Him, He proceeded to teach them, and said: "Blessed are the poor In spirit, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens. "Blessed are the mourners, for they shall be comforted. "Blessed are the meek, for they as heirs shall obtain possession of the earth. "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall he completely satisfied. "Blessed are the compassionate, for they shall receive compassion. VBlessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God. "Blessed are those who have borne persecution in the cause of Righteous ness, for to them belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens. "Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake. Be Joyful and triumphant, because your reward is great in the Heavens; for so were the Prophets before you persecuted. Salt and Lixht "You are the salt of the earth; but If salt has become tasteless, in what way can it regain its saltnessT It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown away and trodden on by the passers by. Tou are the light of the world; a town cannot be hid if built on a hill-top. Nor is a lamp .lighted to be put under a bushel, but on the lampstand; and then it gives light to all in the house. Just so let your light shine before all men. in order that they may see your holy lives and may give glory to your Father who is in Heaven. The Law not repealed "Do not for a moment suppose that I have come to abrogate the Law or the Prophets: I have not come to abrogate them but to give them their completion. Solemnly I tell you that until Heaven and earth pass away not one iota or smallest detail will pass away from the Law until all has taken place. Whoever therefore breaks one of these least command menta and teaches others to break them, will be called the least In the Kingdom of the Heavens; but who ever practises them and teaches them, he will be acknowledged as great in the Kingdom of the Heavens. For I assure you that unless you.- righteous ness greatly surpasses that of the Scribes, and the Pharisees, you will certainly not find entrance into the Kingdom of the Heavens. (To Be Continued.) Kii will duasp approximately one-seventh of the country's entire wheat production into the nation's bin this year, according to J. C Mah ler, 'secretary of the state board of agriculture. Kansas produce more hard winter wheat than any other political unit in the world and it "has no rival in tbe quality of its bread stuffs. Tbe Kansas product has world-wide reputation." The secre tary made these points In a state ment Issued to farmers on the amount of grain lost annually by waste and damage after the crop has been pro duced, and cautioning them that de creasing this loss depends largely no on their preserving the quality of the grain after nature has done its part in yielding a "superior commodity." This, he said, is necessary If the stand, ard of -Kansas wheat Is to be upheld and if the state is te "enjoy the full fruits of the reputation it has so just ly earned." Farmer Interested In Saving: With threshing of Kansas golden harvest already under way in some southern localities and about ready to begin in most other sections of the state, the farmer's Interest turns to saving every possible kernel of his grain. Secretary Mokler continued. His prescribed remedy for reducing wast age or avoiding it entirely is to stack the grain. "Farmers should break away from the wasteful habit of shocking the grain, thus eliminating In a large measure the hundreds of bushels of every crop that are lost," Mohler says. "In late years the habit of thresh ing out of the shock has grown re markably, even tho comparatively' lit. tie can be separated by the time it should be. Whatever may be said of this practice. It is a most wasteful method. Exposed to weather, every rain or dew makes the grain lighter and Injures Its color. Wheat standing in the shock for a month or more, as it not Infrequently does, will lose three to four pounds per bushel in weight and depreciate in grade. It is said by experienced men that it is not uncom mon to lose enouinh grain because of birds, vermin, winds, sun and rains and in bleaching and shattering of grain when standing in the shock wait, ing for threshers, to pay for stacking several cropa In addition, stacking Is at least a partial solution to the grain congestion problem for every farmer. Cheapest and 'Best Storage. The cheapest and best storage, Is on the farm in stacks. The man who stacks hi grain is In many ways master of the situation. If money is needed, bankers everywhere will loan on stacked wheat that is insured. Aside from the saving of grain and the preservation of quality, there are many other advantages to be derived from stacking. Passing thrju the 'sweat' in the stack improves eolor and quality, which so largely deter mine grade, and also promotes clean er separation. Not so many man are needed in threshing. It assists in the conservation of straw. It clears the fields, permitting their cultivation or use as pasture and enables the farm er to do urgent work that otherwise would be neglected. "With the crop off the ground, the land may be prepared early for wheat again the next fall, and this practice favors better yields, as has been thoro. ly demonstrated. "What is saved by stacking ought to more than pay the cost of storing in that way. Stacked grain will keep perfectly for an indefinite period. It may be safely stacked before it is dry enough to thresh. If stacking is aj oat ,j l i. on. m suvum v per manently revived." Founded The L. M.

You saunter into the elevator, on the first floor and demand to be taken to the "museum floor," probably hav ing overlooked the big sign which says, "Museum, fourth floor. The elevator leisurely rises and sets you out at the museum entrance, and right away you see the totem pole. It is perhaps nine feet tall and set against the walL so that you see only its profile (or profiles), but you feel that all the eyes in all the faces on that pole are turned, sideways, just to look at you. No matter where you turn in the first hall, those wide, un blinking pop eyes stare at you over the hook noses that protrude all the way down the pole. You feel a great desire to go over and punch one of those eyes or pull one of those noses. But you cannot spend all day defy ing the totem, as you look around you. You are in a long hall, with wide doors opening into other rooms. An old spinning wheel sits near the elevator entrance, and on the other side against the wall, is a melo'deon. A shabby little trunk, whose inscription says it was made in Germany in 1717 and brought to America about 1820, is set in the middle of the floor. There is a what not covered with bullets and bits of lead from Antietam. At the far end Victrola, sitting on a tabic, announces by its placard that it was with the doughboys from an Ameri can camp to France, thru two drives, St. Mihiel and the Argonne. and back to America again. Ox yokes that went overland in the days of 08 lean against the wall. Kicked Once Too Often. .You smooth your hair and adjust your hat at a mirror that was saved, tho badly scorched, from Quantrill's raid, and pass out into the next room, right into the middle of a whole bat tery of cannon. Most of them are from the World war, but they include Old Kickapoo, a Mexican war veteran, that kicked once too often, judging by the piece that is broken out. In a corner stand some old printing presses, and the press bed of the Law rence Tribune that was destroyed in Quantrill's raid. An old stage coach, which very closely resembles a milk wagon, stands behind a railing. It looks as tho it would be tremendously uncomfortable to ride in over any great distance, and the feeling would probably be heightened by the fear of Indians and bandits. You read the inscription with respect, and reflect ing on the fact that "the route taken by this stage wagon was later fol lowed by the Santa Fe railroad," you go on to the bird room. There are hundreds of birds there in cases. You didn't know there were so many birds of all kinds and sizes and colors. They range from eagles to cardinals and from pelicans to wild canaries. There are animals, too. porcupines and beavers, minks, and squirrels, skunks and opossums. In one case standi a buffalo, whose soli tary magnificence is always being ad mired by a group or small boys. At last you wander into the next room, a huge place filled with cases. The first one you come to is of a cosmopolitan nature. It contains a fossilized tooth, some little whlti kid gloves worn by a bride in 1864, some seashells. a. Chinese lottery ticket. two-edged sword, a piece of the table cloth from the captain's cabin in the "Resolute," a brass tray from a Chi nese altar, one of the only two whisky bottles left unbroken when Carrie Na tion smashed the Senate saloon, Feb ruary S, 1901, and "other articles too numerous to mention." It Can't Seem True. You look at a case of German war relics, and then pass on to the next. You glance into it. and then look around in amazement, with a some what bewildered feeling that someone is kidding you; for here are shingles from Geonre Washington's barn, a vial of tea leaves from the Boston Tea party, a block of wood from the Char ter Oak, a fragment of Plymouth Rock, a piece from the first court dress worn by Benjamin Franklin at the court of France, a powder horn used in the Revolution, Egyptian linen 2,700 years old, a piece of an apple tree planted by Peregrine White, the first white child born in New Eng land, and other article dating from the seventeenth and sixteenth cen turies. You at last go on, past case after case of valuable relics of the past. You gaze at the bones of Quantrill, the desperado r and border ruffian, who raided Lawrence in 1862, reduc ing it to ashes and killing all its men. at pieces of the trousers which the Dalton boys were wearing when they were killed, at a piece or the gallowa of John Brown, at a great pile of Well for Oil i ill ;jsl Dome, Five Miles North of BurUngame. Commerce to the capitol and then attended the luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce. Governor Henry J. Allen, Mayor Frank Cromwell, of Kansas City, Mo.; Ben Jaudon, treas urer of Kansas City, Mo.; Mayor Her bert J. Corwine and Guy C. Sickler, secretary of the Chamber of Com merce, attended the luncheon and journeyed to Burlingame to partici pate in the celebration. State Museum skulls and bones which had been dis interred from an Indian grave, at the bullet-pierced hat of a dead Mex ican bandit, and you wonder at the psychology of the persons who sc cured them in the first place. You are mused at the placard c.n a pair of billiard cue tips, which says they were taken from a hall which had been raided for "gambling." Then you shudder 'at the Indian war-lance with several scalps attached, which was carried at the Custer massacre. You gaze open-mouthed at the pair f ribs from a mastodon or dinosaur, each of them about six feet longs You come out into the next room with your mind a whirl of guns, dirks, brass knucks, still bloody, scalps and bones, the Philippines, drums, baby carriages and old flags. Hete behind a railing, you see old fashioned fur niture, wax flowers, a, Mayflower chair, samplers, an old carved walnut bed, and as a contrast, an Eskimo sled hitched to a reindeer. Here also Lt another case of Indian relics, and in the middle cf the, floor an Iron standard, to which are attached pic tures of grave gentlemen, each with a wealth of whiskeis combed-ln various styles. At the Last Room at Last. And now you reach the last rtom You are tired by this time, and if you could get to some place where there were no -spectators, you would take off your shove. That is hardiv practical tho, sj you content yourself wnn stretcnini; oct in a chair and gazing vacantly i:jto space. You con template placidly ne collection of ar ticles which have been marvelously scroll-sawed, and decide that if you had a little more atiibitlpn, you would wonder how the maker could ever do such things with a plain piece of wooa ana a lime scroll saw. It is too much trouble to wonder anything tho, so you continue to sit and raze around, until the legend on a Picture strixes your wandering eyes. It says. "Let Us Forgive But Not Fore-at." and it looks interesting. At last you force your protesting feet to rami you to arce the picture, which proves vl uig j. errors or Anaeisonvilie prison. Being up, you decide to finish the job, and you go thru the rest of the cases methodically. You consider the case or the Turkish gentleman who one day smoked the pipe with two Dowis ana a stem five feet two inches long, and you wonder if the little col lection of beads on a string really, as its placard says, constituted the full dress of an African lady that is, the whole dress. You are Interested in the Egyptian relics and the olive branch from the Mount of Olives, but you pass the Indian relics up with only a grlance you have just seen lots of Indian relics, and too much is enough. So you are thru the museum. You wander out into the first hall again. The totem pole immediately fixes all Its eyes on you and you hastily, ring for the elevator. It comes, leisurely, an extremely well-bred elevator, and you step In. It goes down again, leisure ly, and you walk out into the street. There you meet a friend. "Where you been?" says he. "You look as if you had cobwebs in your brain. You draw yourself up haughtily and transfix him -with a glittering eye. "In the memorial museum," you say. "It seems te me thst it is the duty of every citizen of Kansas to go up there once in awhile to look at the evidences of the heroism of the old forefathers. Besides, we. as Topekans And so on.
