Steel is not a barrier to radio waves, and the test of receiving radio telephone communi cations within a moving all-steel rail road car on the Pennsylvania rail road's Broadway limited train was de clared a success in a message re ceived at the Tsorth western regional headquarters of the railroad today from. ?n 'cial of its signal depart- ment In advance of the arrival of the train. Broadcastings from New York and Philadelphia were received clearly, the messag9 stated. 'and so successful was the test considered that further tests would be carried out in a week or ten days. One of the principal points of inter est to the signal cepartment as re ported by E .S. Stewart, who sent the message, was that the reception of wireless communications was not in terfered with ty the high tension overhead wires. The test was held to establish the success or failure of wireless receiving without external antennae in a moving all-steel railway car. The radio outfit was established in a closed compartment of the car, with an inside loop in lieu of external aerials. The experiments were made i after the train left North Philadelphia late yesterday afternoon. AUTOMOBILE GOES INTO DITCH J. C. Burnett of Santa Fe Injured In Accident Xear Independence. J. C.

CASE TO GENERAL ASSEMBLY Disrepute on Church hj Marry ing Couple in Pool. Faces Arson Charge in Connec tion With Church Fire. Tulsa, Okla., Oct. 13. The convic tion of the Rev. Thomas J. Irwin, of Lawton, on charges of conduct unbe coming a minister and his lndefin't suspension from the ministry was upheld early today by the judicial -commission of the Presbyterian synod of Oklahoma, after a review of the findings of the El Reno presbytery before which Mr. Irwini was recently tried. Counsel for the suspended minister gave notice that the case would be appealed to the general assembly of, -the Presbyterian church which, meets next May in Indianapolis. "The judicial commission Is of the opinion and so holds that the Judg ment, passed by the El Reno presby tery is not more severe than the facts on which the commission confirms the El Reno presbytery justify, and we affirm the judgment, that is, that the Rev. Mr. Irwin is indefinitely sus pended." George C. Abernathy, of Shawnee, moderator of the synodlcal commission, said in announcing the decision. He said the specifications of error cited in the appeal' of Mr. Irwini were overruled. Married Couple in Pool. The Rev. Mr. Irwin was convicted by the El Reno presbytery on three counts. He was found guilty of hav ing brought disrepute upon the church by marrying a couple in a bathing pool at a summer resort near Lawton. The bride and groom and the minister wore bathing suits. The other charges were that ne swore to a false affidavit to obtain an injunction In district court to prevent members of his congregation in Law ton from interfering with his conduct of the affairs of the church, and that he had disciplined members of the congregation without due process. Is Charged With Arson. Mr. Irwin faces trial In district court at Lawton on a charge of arson in connection with an alleged incen, diary fire at his former church. The fire occurred while he was still pas tor. The arson charge was filed by the county attorney after an investigation, the motive alleged being that the min ister fired his church to gain sym pathy in the bitter fight he was wag ing with one section of his congrega tion. On the other hand, Mr. Irwin charges that his enemies set fire to the church. The, minister was found outside Lawton on two occasions this summer suffering from attacks he attributed to men who he charged were trying to drive him 'out of Lawton. The county attorney, after an investigation, declared evidence gathered by him indicated that the abductions were framed by the minister himself." Was Friend of Jake Ilamon. Charges have repeatedly been made by friends and counsel for Mr. Irwin that the whole controversy at Lawton grew out of the pastor's friendship for the late Jake L. Hamon, Repub lican national committeeman from Oklahoma for whose death Clara Smith Hamon was tried at Ardmore for murder. The breach between the Lawton pastor and certain members of his congregation was widened when the Rev. Irwin preached the funeral sermon over Hamon. Hamon mads large contributions to the Lawton church and Installed In It motion pic ture apparatus to which many mem bers of the church were opposed. PRATT MUST BE GOOD State Will Act If Officials Don't Con trol Strikers. i Mayor Peacock and the Pratt city administration will receive alittle at tention at the hands of the state be cause of activities of the Rock Island shop strikers In the town. Col. Chas. If. Browne of Hnrton was today dele gated by Governor Allen and Adju tant General Martin to carry the mes sage to the Pratt city administration Recently strikers In the town r declared to have advised property owners that they must not rent house to strike breakers. Apparently Mayor Peacock and other city officials diil not make a strenuous effort to pre vent activities of the strikers. Con sequently Pratt did not become wholesome community In which the strike breakers might live. Governor Allen today Instructed Colonel Browne to advise Mayor Pea cock that intimidations by striker would not be permitted. If the mayor continues to display a laejc of interest state officials indicate that prelimi nary steps will be taken to relieve thft. mayor of some of his responsibilities.

Kan., Oct. 13. When the Washington Unirersity Pikers meet the Kaoni Aggies at St. Louis tomorrow they will find a team skilled in aerial attack and with an offensive that will require a Sherlock Holmes to solve. Last Saturday's 47 to 0 victory over Washburn gave the wildcats self-confidence. This, combined with their strong offensive, apparently will make- them strong bidders ior me Valley championship. A comparison or the two elevens t this earlv stare of the season "augurs well for the Aggies. Playing the Rolla Hchool of Mines last Saturday, wasn ington was able to run up only a 14 to 6 score. Holla is considered some what below the average of Kansas conference teams, and when one re- ?J5t HlfflT FOR KANSAS GI1Y GIRL are in favor of Bachman's Wildcats. Several Are Injured. While ths Pikers' have a number of first string men on the hospital list. several of whom, if reports are true, will not be on the field Saturday, only few Aeeies are on the list and only two or three of these are out of the game for iny length of time. No one was seriously injured in the Wash burn game. This tangle simply served to give the Aggies a good seasoning. Baehman has two tnree-ietier men. two twin-striped men and five other veterans. Last year's iresnmen wno are on the varsity played last week like they had a season s experience De hind them. All of the coach's expectations con cerning Swartz, Bears, stark, Burton and Sebring, Aggie backs and ends, were realised and the work of the new men who went in surprised every body. The Aggies completed thirteen passes for a total of 143 yards. .Nine passes failed and two were intercept ed. Even tho Swarts, left handed quarter, should be out of the game a strong passing aggregation headed by Brown, who is playing his first year on the varsity, will still be In evidence. Wildcats Are Speedy. Altho the Wildcats may be lacking more in beef than any team -in the valley, they largely make up for this deficiency in speed and brain work. The Baehman offensive, timed at just the right moment, is almost certain to result in good gains. Burton s open field running can usually be counted upon for substantial yardage. All dope points to the Wildcats as win ners In their battle with Washington. START WORK ON DORMITORY New Building at Pittsburg Will Be Completed by July 1. nttsburg, Kan.. Oct. 1J. Work on the" dormitory for women to be erected at the State Manual Training Normal school here was begun this week. Contra-'s for the erection of the structure were awarded ten days ago.

It is probable that ad mission will be by application and in order of filing. s NO DECISION ON CROSSINGS State Highway Commission TJnable to Agree on Expense. The state highway commission has been unable to agree as to a basis for distribution of expense for elimination of gradecrossings. After a prolonged discussion of the expense problem the state commission adjourned without taking action. Railroad representatives asked for f ifty-f ifty division of federal aio. where subways or viaducts are re quired in elimination of grade cross ings. Recently the government agreed to allow half of the elimination ex pense and railroads made application for allowances in distribution of ex- pense. For the present the state com mission will probably place one-half of the elimination expense on the fed eral fund, 25 per cent on the county and Zh per cent on the carrier. NO RELATIVES CLAIM BODY.

Oct. 13 WHEAT Higher prices for wheat resulted this morning from a "rise In Liverpool quotations and from con tinued transporation airncuities on tnis side of the Atlantic preventing any general accumulation of wheat supplies and creat ing an urgent demand for prompt shipment of other grain, especially corn. Demand was also proportionately greater ror near by deliveries of wheat.- Most of the selling appeared to be of a profit taking character. roe opening, wnicn rangea iroin 4C io c hiirher. with December $1,093 to 1.09s, and May $1.104 to $1.11, was followed by a slight reaction and then by a fresh upturn. The close was tirm. c to lc net niener. with December $1.09 to $1.0934 and May $l.loa, to $1.104. iuk: corn ana oars displayed inde pendent strength from the outset, with May and July ccrn scoring new price records for the season. After opening t,e to lc high er, December OSl-uC to 64r, the corn market held near the initial range. An estimate that Argentina has only 30. 000.000 bushels left for export was con strued as bullish. The market closed firm, i lc to l4c net mlerher. with December 64(ui I c.

Washing ton, li. C. Isn't it about time for somebody to declare that England induced General Uaughcrty to issue his recent liquor ruling, bo as to put American ships cut of business? The Americun Cham ber of Commerce in London, in its monthly bulletin, quotes from, a speech by Sir Frederick Lewis the following: "I have on many occa sions, both In my capacity as chair man ot a number of representative British shipping companies. And as president of the chamber of shipping of the United Kingdom, mads a point of explaining what f conceive to be the -attitude of British shipping to wards the United States mercantile marine. Y,et I cm afraid that attitude is still misunderstood in certain quar ters, as I am repeatedly hearing refer- ,inro tn tVi n rn nn nttst which It. In

alleged sritisn snipping interests are directing against the growth and de velopment of the United States mer cantile marine. I desire to state pub licly and emphatically that there Is o such propaganda on the part of British ship owners, and any reports to the contrary are calculated to cre ate an unfortunate atmosphere." Whatever propaganda there Is pro ceeds from the advocates of the ship subsidy and they it Is who profess to see British opposition to an American merchant marine. .Swiss insurance companies have In creased their rates on women risks as much as 15 per cent. The reason given is that short skirts, high heelB, rind low necks increase the likelihood of a woman's falling and hurting her self or catching pneumonia. Low necks, and high heels, perhaps, but surely short skirts are not a menace. A German province has imposed a tax on American travelers running as high as $50. This looks like art at tempt to kill the goose' that lays the golden egg. Americans may refuse to alight in that territory. Left to them selves they doubtless would contrib ute more than the amount of the tax. Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania, In a speech at Pittsburgh recently, asked the -voters to bear In mind that "there r.ever has been a time in the last fifty years that the result of a presidential election was not accurately forecast by the preceding nation-wide election in an off-presidential year." This, if true, is worth remembering because if the new tariff law affects the vot ing in the tame way that new tariff laws usually have done the result of the 1924 election can be forecast right now, without waiting for next Novem ber. It is announced from Washington that three hundred officers of the law have been shot and killed during the past year, while engaged in enforc ing liquor laws. Yet the supply of patriots who are willing to take a chance, seems undiminished. Samuel Qompers, In a speech beforo the Central labor union, in Washing ton recently, charged that General Daugherty had "wantonly violated" the law, and should be removed from office. The particular law that Mr. Gompers had in mind was a provision that has been carried in the annual appropriation bill for the department of justice for many years, directing that the appropriation for the en forcement of the anti-trust laws shall r.ot be used, In the words of Mr. Gom pers, "to prosecute wonting people in their e'"-t to better conditions." The law in question has an important bearing on the legal status of labor organizations, and is as follows: "No part of this money (for the enforce ment of the anti-trust laws) shall be spent in the prosecution of any organ ization or individual for entering into any combination or agreement having In view the increasing of wages, shortening of hours or bettering the conditions of labor, or for any act done In furtherance thereof, not in itself unlawful." It may readily be seen that Mr. Gompers's poEnt Is not well taken, from the fact that "un lawful acts" was charged by the. at torney general and It was upon his showing of such that the injunction was granted. "A protctlve tariff is designed to bring .foreign costs up to American standards," says the Omaha Bee. But what a protective tariff actually does is to bring largely increased prices to the American consumer with no benefit except to a limited number of producers. REBOUND OF FARM PRICES The federal department of agricul ture notes a considerable decline in the value of farm products in the month from August 15 to September 15. One of the most vital questions of the moment bearing upon the Im mediate outlook for business Is that of the probable purchasing power of farmers this fall. Industry has been cheered by the recurrent reports of excellent growing crops and the prom ise of a greater abundance of har vests this year than in 1921. The farmers, however, have not shared greatly in this enthusiasm. The rea son is plain. Since July the prices of wheat, corn and other foodstuffs have fallen, In some cases precipi tately. Wheat declined more than 20 cents a bushel to below $1. The price received on the farm was much less. At tbe same time farm values were tumbling, other commodity prices have been rising. Coal, steel, build ing materials, and clothing all are higher than they were in the summer when wheat started to decline. Recently a new influence injected Itself into the situation, in the person of Mustapha Kemal. The specter of war in Europe had an Immediate in fluence upon wheat and values have advanced about 10 cents a bushel. Even without the Turkish war threat, grain prices evidently were too low In view of world conditions. An esti mated decrease of 63,000.000 bushels of wheat in the world's stored up sup plies la shown compared with 1921. The world crop is 40,000,000 bushels less than last year and in Europe the harvest promises to yield 138,000,000 bushels less. All this means sustained" demand for food from the exporting nations, of which this country is at the front. Altho exports of American farm products are less than they were dur ing the war, they are still far above the prewar level in most instances, and there is no immediate Indication of sharp curtailment. "All things con sidered," says the Iron Trade Review, "it seems probable that the slump of farm products has been halted and that conditions are shaping themselves more favorably for the farmer." All business will benefit from such a de velopment. A war scare and a snort foreign crop are doing for the farmer what the tariff could not do. Ulysses S. Grant III returns from Europe with the statement that "over there they hate us, because of our prosperity." Mr. Grant probably Is mistaken. If they really hate us it is becaarse they owe us money. "CAPITAL" A.YD THE PEOPLE The so-called "moneyed interests" long have been regarded with sus picion, fcy a considerable number of American citizens. These persons ap pear to think that capital ever Is try ing to put something over on thenr. They never seem to realize that their Interests and those of the money kings are Identical and that the well-being or all depends upon general prosper ity. At the recent convention of the American Bankers' association several speakers urged that the United States should cancel, in whol or in large part, the debts due from foreign coun tries to the United States. This view was so strongly urged that it was practically if not formally submitted to the association for its action. It la noted, however, that the associa tion did not include that suggestion in the resolutions it adopted, thereby Inferentially giving the suggestion its disapproval. Moreover, one of the first recommendations mads in the resolutions adopted by- the convention was that which favors "reduction of governmental expenditures so that taxes may be reduced." That resolution was virtually a re pudiation of the suggestion of debt cancellation for it is inevitable that' every dollar of debt cancellation that might be granted would mean an ad ditional dollar of burden placed upon the American people and an addition al dollar of taxes that must ultimate ly be levied to enable the United States treasury, to liquidate the na tional debt. In its refusal to endorse the idea of debt cancellation and in its declar ation in favor of reduction of govern ment expenditures so that taxes may be reduced, the American Bankers' association doubtless will have the al most unanimous endorsement and support of the American people. During consideration of the tariff bill in the recent session of congress, numerous southern Organizations en- aorsea protective rates. This is a comparatively new attitude for a southern organization to take. Never theless, southern members of both houses of congress were almost unani mous In voting against the protec tive tariff bill on its final passage. They showed a commendable devotion to duty in voting for the interests of the great majority rcther than for those of a lew manufacturers. Pos sibly they remembered also what fre- quently happens to Republican mem bars who vote for high tariff duUes. International Sunday School Lesson BY, WILLIAM T. ELLIS. For October 15 is "The Ministry of John the Baptist." Luke 3. A Preacher Who Lost His Bead. "Once there was a preacher who had his head out off: today there are some preachers who have had their message killed. Which is worse? Would you rather lose your head, or your mes sage? That question is answered in the asking. The decapitated prophet Is still speaking to the ages today the Sunday school millions of the world sit at his feet but the teachers who have no clear word of truth and au thority are without followers even in their own time. There may be more tragic spectacles than that of the man called to preach who has nothing to say. to his own times, but I cannot think of any at the moment. To occupy the office of a shepherd of souls and to be unable to function therein is worse than tne late of the starving Russian or the de ported Christian in Asia Minor. Most of us are familiar with instances of men who, from lack of courage or lack of devotion or lack of obedience or lack of sensitiveness to truth and to their times, completely fail to function as prophets of the Most High. They strive earnestly for the arts of men- pleasing; but nobody ever wins or holds the favor of man who has hot been loyal to God and his own soul. First of all to men and women who should be leaders and Interpreters of their generation, representatives of the mine? of the Most High, comes this ever-stirring story of John the Her ald, who died for being true, and still lives wherever men honor manhood and loyalty and freedom and spiritual power. r Critics and Creators. Persons who watch literary tenden cies are pointing out that this is the day of the critic and not of the cre ator. A large proportion of the books that pour from the presses of our time are criticisms of creative work; and even criticisms of criticisms. Writers are turning their talents to analysis and comment upon the great works, old and new, rather than to delivering an original message. In a word, there are more echoes than voices. On editorial pages of newspapers, in magazines, in books, on the lecture platform and in the pulpit, we are having little except echoes of echoes. What magazine has published a really great and original article within the past year? Who has heard a clear, strong, original sermon? This "John the Baptist was a voice. He spoke the real, the new and the true. In the desert alone with God and the desert is as essential a part of a prophet's equipment as a library or a vocabulary r-this eon of promise lived open-souled to the great truths. In solitude he acquired that' which made him fit to speak to the multi tude. All of us. whether we have an avowedly public mission or not, need to get away from crowds, to get away from people, and dwell apart in soul silence, to learn what God has to say unto us. The oriental mystic who shuts himself up for a life of silent medita tion may not have grasped the whole truth, but he has hokj of one end of it. John the Baptist, trained in the desert, is an admonition to parents and teach ers. Few of us spend enough time apart from people. The modern idea of a "good time" Is associated with company and crowds and light and noise and chatter. How can we ever learn to think for ourselves, until we first learn to dwell alone, where out soul may be still?, "The world is too much with us." Lonely folks become "peculiar," we say, "peculiar1 being our. synonym for Individuality. Most of us moderns would rather be sinful than singular. We eat standardized food," from pack ages and tins; we wear standardized, machine-made clothes, so that a con tinent dresses alike; we read the same "popular" magazines and books; we follow slavishly the prevailing fash ions; until all the savor and tang of personality is gone from our minds and from our outward appearance. Our music and thinking is set to the letrains of "Everybody's doing it! Nowadays nich an individualist as John the Baptist would not get a chance to speak in even the least dis criminating of our churches; he would be not only unfashionable and uncon ventional, but he would be voted downright "queer" and "radical." Sticks and Fingerboards. Not every stick is a fingerboard but it may be. Christians who are be moaning that they are not "talented" need only recall that any stick, so long as it Is straight, may point. And the chief mission of the Christian, as of John the Baptist, ia to point to "the lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the -world. This sensational prophet from the desert did not set himself up to be any great preacher. Of course, he had crowds, as has every fresh, zeal ous voice; but his crowds did not fill him with pride of self-exaltation. He Knew mat., ne was only a herald, a forerunner, an advance agent. His sole business was to cry "Behold!" If he merely set people to talking about his own greatness he would know himself a failure. His congregation aio. not go away crying; -wnat wonaenui preacher: out What a wonderful message!" This was the greatest greatness of John; he kept himself steadily to the work of proclaiming a Greater! He was big enough to belittle himself. He was a first-class man, who proudly accepted a second place. So clear was John s perception of the ail-importance of Christ that he cried, in sea son and out, "He must increase; I must decrease." His success lay not in exalting himself, but in holding very high and steady the name and character of the Coming One. He Know that while he had no philosophy equal to the needs of his day, hepro cla'.med a Person who was entirely adequate. Right here Is where the Herald from the wilderness speaks the word of words to our troubled time. We are in a perilous period of history. All the forces upon which mankind has pinned its hopes have failed us. Mili tary might has proved inadequate. Councils of statesmen have been worse than useless. The league of nations has been impotent in the gravest is sues. "Enlightened self-interest" has proved a broken reed. What, then, is our refuge? Where may we look for rescue? John has the word: "Behold, the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world!" It is not a system, but a Saviour, that can deliver us. Instead of councils and conferences, we need Christ. Nothing less than a Redeemer and Lord, to master human life, can nave us from the miry pit in which civiliza tion today finds itself. Every man and woman who is truly following Christ and really preaching Christ Is con 1 tr'?uVn5 mo effectively to the way aa ln nour of international des- tiny in which John the Baptist lived, only Jesus Christ can lead mankind to safety and peace. The Preacher and the Profiteer. This man John was greater than his times. He saw things in the large, even to their causes. His. was the long look, and the wide look, that took in the onmarch of life, and understood its component parts. There was an eternal note in his message: what he said would not have been the truth for the times if it had not also been the truth for all times. His conclusions were general, but his applications were also particular. Naturally, general conclusions with out particular applications are "safe;" and therefore we have plenty of them. This is a partial explanation of why so many writers and speakers run to platitudes. John, however, drove the meaning of his, message straight home to "Thou art the man." Hear him: "He said therefore to the multi-' tudes that went out to be baptized of himr Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? "Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves. We have Abraham to our father: for-1 say unto you, that God is able of "these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. "And even now the axe also lieth at the root of the trees, every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit Is hewn down, and cast into the fire. "And the multitudes asked him. saying, What then must we do? "And he answered and said unto them. He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise. "And there came also publicans to be baptized, and they said unto him, Teacher, what must we do? "And he said unto them. Extort no more than that which is ap pointed you. "And soldiers also asked him, say ing. And we, what must we do? And he said unto them, Extort from 'no man by violence, neither accuse any one wrongfully; and be content with your wages." No truckling and no demagogry there. The Herald pierced to the mar row of the complacent aristocracy and of the grafting tax-collectors and of the unruly proletariat. There is no comfort for the class conscious In what this desert preacher said. Had John been alive today we- know he would have excoriated the profiteers and the pussy-footing politicians and the shameless law-breakers. No truth is vitally true that does not apply to present life and present persons. After AIL the Executioner. A vengeful and designing woman, and a sensual and spineless king, ended John's life by the sword, so that his head was served up on a platter by a shameless dancer for the Jeers of drunken courtiers. But that was only an incident in a career of consummate success. It does not mat ter to a real man whether hedies or lives, so long as he is true to his duty. The Baptist lives in a myriad lives today; and Herod and his para mour have for centuries been deep in the pit of the world's contempt and execration. Courage Is the first and last quality. When courage goes, all is gone. Be cause John was brave, his wisdom became effective. He dared make enemies of the mighty and of the mob; but at the same time, he made friends with God and truth and pos terity. High among the mightiest ot all the men that ever lived stands this rough messenger from the desert, who was so humble that he deemed himself unworthy to untie the sandals of the Coming One; and so fearless that he dared rebuke the king on his throne and the crowd in its sins. He was a preacher with a social message if ever there was one. In the "slack age, when the popular teaching is that which echoes the words of the serpent in the garden, "Ye shall be as gods;" and when men and women are fond of magnifying the glory and freedom of their own personalities, we welcome the shock of John's needed message, "Repent!" Mankind must face this clear call ere it can see daylight In a dark time. Na tions and people have got to repent of their sins and turn to the Lamb of God eternal symbol of sacrifice and suffering before they can find the peace for which the whole crea tion hungers and thirsts.

As private secretary to the manag ing 'editor oi the magazine, Daisy Jones was the go-between that-invar-iably appeared between that important personage and aspirants to literary honors who thought 'that a personal interview with the editor was one of the rungs on the ladder to success. Al most never did one of the callers whom Daisy Jones met in the recep tion room of the magazine offices get to see Mr. Stockbrldge, the editor. Yet they never felt that they were be'lng turned down or that they had been sent empty away tnai la, not until they had got out of the warmth of Daisy's radiant personality,, her sym pathetic smile and her understanding brown eyes. If they had manuscript she took it and referred It to- one of the readers; if they begged a personal interview with Mr. Stockbridge she made excuses; if they had criticisms to offer she listened patiently and thanked the critics. Harold Rogers when he called with a brief case of. manuscript at the edi torial office was no' ordinary caller. That is, he was not to be sidetracked by Daisy Jones's interested smile or sympathetic eyes. Harold had sold books one summer as part of his scheme for putting himself thru col lege and he was immune to all of Daisy's tricks and excuses. "I want to see Mr. Stockbrldge I'm going to see him somehow," he said doggedly but with perfect good na ture. "But Mr Stockbridge expects me to attend to callers with whom he Is not personally --acquainted. If you have manuscript I'll be very glad to take it and have it carefully read by one of the assistant editors. Mr. Stockbridge never considers manu script until it has gone thru the hands of his assistants. He is so very busy. You surely understand." "Yes, but this manuscript has al ready gone thru the hands of your editorial readers and it has come back with a rejection slip. I didn't write it, you understand. If I had I wouldn't be so keen about-praising it. But it is the work of an old friend of mine Alden Bangs. I undertook to place it for him. He is especially eager to get you people to take it. I know your readers weren't impressed by it, but I. also know that a man like Mr. Stock bridge might sometimes come to a dif ferent decision from that of his assist ants. I want Mr. Stockbridge to read this himself. That's why I ,want to meet Mr. Stockbridge personally. Now you say that he never sees writers personally, that he never, reads manu-q script until it has been passed on Dy his readers. I happen to have heard how he took the first story from John Brandige. His readers turned it down. Then he read it personally and recog nized it as one of the best short stories of the year." "Of course, John Brandige was dif ferent," assured -Daisy. "Mr. btock bridge's sympathy was aroused. Mr. Brandige, you know, is blind. When other men who try to beg his per sonal interest come he says; 'They are strong, healthy. Why don't they become doctors or engineers, or law yers or carpenters?. There- are too many fiction writers" as it is.' You know Mr. Stockbridge is not very en thusiastic about fiction writing as a profession. Tell your friend that Mr. Stockbridge thinks that for nine hun dred and ninety-nine men out of a thousand who aspire to fiction writing, it would have been the part of wis dom to have taken up some other calling. That is what Mr. Stockbridge would tell you if he saw you. Of course with John Brandige it was different. He was blind Harold Rogers had been listening intently. He interrupted Daisy now: "There may be just as good reason wbv this friend of mine should be encouraged as John Brandige. The filet is the fact is he broke his neck once when he was trvins trying to save a girl from drowning. He has. tongue-tied sister "Tongue-tied? queried Daisy. "Yes; tongue-tied that's what I said, isn't it? You see she studied to be a singer and then she became tongue-tiedso she can't help support the family. Really it is a very sad case. Quite as sad as that of John Brandige. Of course, this manuscript may not be available, but If Mr. Stock bridge would only look it over he might be willing to write to this friend of mine and offer him some helpful criticisms. You see he. has to lie flat on his back he dictates to to his tongue-tied sister "That is pathetic," said Daisy, sym pathetic concern written on her viva cious face. "I'll tell Mr. Stockbridge about it. Just leave the manuscript and I'll see what I can do. Mr. Stockbridge was not ln a very amiable mood nor a sympathetic one, and Daisy did not feel that it was an auspicious time to present the sad case of the broken-necked author and his tongue-tied sister. But she could not bear to disappoint them. So she read the manuscript very carefully herself. She could see why the readers had rejected it, still she could also see traces of merit that might make this Alden Bangs a second John Brandige. She pondered long over the story and then in a letter she wrote she brought to bear all the literary criti cism she had learned from her long as sociation with Mr. Stockbridge. A sec ond manuscript followed after two weeks. This showed, as Daisy tnougnt, enormous improvement; still, it was hardly up to stocaDnages stanaara. So she wrote another letter as full of tactful encouragement as It was of unsparing criticism. A month fol lowed and Daisy often feared lest she had been too severe. Or perhaps poor Alden Bang's poor life had come to a close, his ambition still ungratifjed. In a month and a day, however, the third manuscript from Alden Bangs arrived and with it a brief handwrit ten letter expressing the deep grati tude of the writer for the sympa thetic interest that Miss Jones had taken. One quick reading gave Daisy cour age; a second reading and she knew that she had a really great story In her hands. She did not hesitate to take it to Stockbridge. Stockbridge was enthusiastic more enthusiastic tharf Daisy had ever seen him before. "Send for- the autnor," bawled Stockbridge., "He's got the real spark of genius. Wherever he lives we'll pay his expenses. Don't let any one else get ahead of us. Get him up here at once." "But I'm afraid he can't come," said Daisy sadly. "He's a bedridden invalid." "JThe devil, stormed Stockbridge. He mused for a moment. "Lives in Stoneton? That's 300 miles awaji I could go no I say, Miss Jcnes, go home early this afternoon and tomor row start out bright and early for Stoneton. Have a talk with this fellow- Look over whatever other man uscript he has on hand. Find out wnai storiea.ne 9 got simmering in nis bead. Size up the situation. We want

to get a contract with him for a; smashing big serial." j The next evening Daisy Jones was ushered into the old-fashioned draw- i ing room of the old-fasmoned house' of the Bangses in Stoneton. She had asked to see Mr. Alden angs and she expected to be ushered upstairs to see the broken-necked author and his tongue-tied sister. Instead she was kept waiting for a few minutes and j then a stalwart young man of about; thirty, wearing rather rusty riding j togs, came into the room. "Miss Daisy Jones!" he exclaimed, seizing her hand in a firm and vigor ous handshake. "You know I was afraid you were going to be well a sort of blue stocking horn-rimmed spectacles and all that. But after those wonderful letters I really couldn't believe that you were But how does it happen that you are in Stoneton?" "You are not Alden Bangs?" gasped Daisy. "You didn't write that story you why I thought you had a broken neck and a tongue-tied sis ter and an invalid mother I For a moment Alden Bangs felt sure that his caller had suddenly taken i leave of her senses, then when she as sured him that, broken necked or not. he had written a story that Stock bridge declared a work of genius, he listened with eagerness. ."Mr. Stockbridge sent me to see yon because we thought you were an in valid that you broke your neck to save a poor girl from drowning Alden Bangs looked puzzled and then gradually a smile came over his face. "That villain Rogers." he said, laughing heartily., "You see I had an idea that I could write a little, but 1 couldn't get up my nerve to find a market for my manuscript. Harold Rogers is a born salesman. He is my best friend too, anu more eager for me to succeed than I am myself, and well. I guess he thouarht if he told a hard luck story you'd be more in terested which of course shows how little he knows of the literary game." Six months later when the first in stallment of Alden Bangs's great se rial had appeared the newspapers re ported the quiet wedding of the much talked about young writer to Daisy Jones anij Harold Rogers was the best man.

A business girl who makes a good salary is engaged to be married to a young man who is studying to be a doctor, and who is working his way thru school against many odds. The young woman wants to help her fiance financially, but he refuses to take money from her, nor does he want to marrx until he has completed his education and has established him self as a physician. I The girl thinks this a very foolish position for the young man to take. and wants to know what I think of it. I think the young man's point of view is not only the honorable one, but the sensible one, and that a youth who has the grit, and pluck, and indepen dence to fight his own way upward unaided is worth waiting for as long as Jacob waited for Rachel. The man who will take money from a woman, and who will let his sweet heart work to support him is a poor, weak, miserable creature who isn't worth his purchase price, even in a matrimonial marked-down bargain sale. It Is natural that every woman should want to help the man she loves, and when she sees that he needs mon ey, and the comforts and necessities that money buys, that she should yearn to give him everything in her pocketbook even to the last penny. But it is a dangerous thing to do. There is something strange, and sin ister, and inexplicable about the blighting effect that a woman's money seems to have on a man, and not once In a thousand times can she give it to him without ruining him, and slaying his affection for her. Wheuher it is because it subverts the laws of nature and makes .the weaker one the stronger, and turns the one who should be the protector into the protected; or whether it kills a man's self-respect for him to' be de pendent on a womajg, and he hates ner Because Fne visualizes nis own weakness to him, nobody knows. But certain it is that a woman's money almost Invariably kills a man's love for her. He may take it gladly, and eagerly. He may force her to give it to him, but almost Invariably it turns him into a cur who bites the hand that feeds him. You have only to look about you to see a .hundred proofs of this. Thins, of the working girls you have known who have lent money to their sweet hearts, and lost both sweethearts and money. Look at the rich girls who marry poor men. How few of such marriages are ever happy. The wom en may be all that is lovely and sweet and generoua They may even be so insanely in love that they have turned over their fortunes to their husbands, but the men are peevish, disgruntled cynics who scoff at romance and love, and oftener than not are faithless to the women whose angel food they feast upon.

Sir I have been interested In what I have read in your column about the Pennsylvania Dutch and other peo ples. It has been my lot to travel in many parts where the mannerisms of speech are very amusing. This was told in a part of Pennsylvania where I once sojourned: Jake Baum's father had been lying in a critical condition for several weeks, sup posedly at the point of death. Every day when Jake came to the village for the mail he was greeted with' anxious inquiries about his father's condition. At length, one night, the elder Baum'died, and when Jake ar rived at the village the usual question was addressed to him: "Is your father alive yet?" Jake's reply, dif- iereni man neretoiore, was: "No, not yet." I find that Philadelphia is not ex empt from peculiar mannerisms of speech. One that impresses me Is to refer to those who are employed in clerical capacities as "business peo ple." On the basis of experience in other parts, I may have accepted an erroneous definition, or one too nar row. But I have always supposed a "business person" was one who had invested capital in some enterprise and employed other people. A very common Americanism that I have noted Is "saleslady" and "fore lady." Yet, Americans do not speak of "sales-gentlemen"and "fore-gentlemen." The term "lady" is so over worked I should think women who tmnk logically would dislike it. I H. W. S. i gence before she opened her moutn. Sir Here is a little contribution I "Yon look very happy.

Seated beside him in his car, Nellie gave herself up to nernappiness. He had torn to shreds her every objection. Surely he was wiser than she and. If he could see no complications ln their -mating, she, ought to trust him and take the good the goa had provided her. At a famous jewellem they selected a ring. He laughed gayly at Nellie's modest taste, her look of almost awe as the salesman named the price ot the beautiful stones he displayed. At last they agreed upon a medium sized diamond of purest water and when he slipped it on her finger, arter they re entered the car., h i kissed both the ring and her finger. "For luck, and her happiness," he said. I Then they tslok- a dnve thru the park while he told herover and over of his love; how it had grown daily as he watched her. And It was a very proud and happy girl he left at Mrs. Doty's door. Alone. many of her misgivings re turned, but not for long. She was too happy. And the ring on her finger reamed tn nrnmise nermanence of that happiness. She wouldn't take It off not so goon- so she turned the stone around on the inside while at dinner.

"I sup pose you ll be leavieg tne ottice at I once? ne. hi i ueurgr, KHuiru me iv. xut I told him I should stay until I earned enough to buy some new clothes.

"No, I can't help it if they suspect, but I shan't tell anyone but you and perhaps Donald. He'll be glad for me." Would he? Mrs. Roberts wondered. She knew that of late he had been more hopeful; that he was building air castles that when utterly demolished would cause him muchsorrow. But she raid nothing. Nellie now was be yond his reach. For an hour Nellie chatted of her happiness, then tired with her emo tions she crept off to bed. to sleep and dream of her -Mr. George, of dia mond engagement rings; of a mar riage ceremony.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL--FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 13, 1922 7 V V -T .1 Today, Friday the 13th Will Be Bad Day To Start Any New Business Venture Many Persons Have Superstitious Ideas About Friday and the Thirteenth Some Hotel Guests Will Not Occupy Room Thirteen or Go to Thirteenth Floor. BY LOIS ROBINETTE. Nearly every one is superstitious. To be sure you and I are not. but just the unenlightened. It has been so deeply rooted in us for generations back that it is not so easy to get away from as one might imagine. We might be able to light the hoo doo ol the thirteenth but when it comes on Friday, it makes a bad com bination. Most persons will say they B.rp, not superstitious about Friday the thir teenth, yet they would not begin a new Job then or set that day for their wedding, or start upon a journey, or choose such a day to undergo a seri ous operation. It is claimed that DeVinci's fresco of the Last .Supper spread the super stition about thirteen at the table. The painting shows the twelve apos tles at supper with the. Savior. One from the number was to be betrayer and one was to die before many moons. From this picture a wave of "thirteen" hysteria swept over the civilized world, and the force of it is still felt. It Signifies Bad Luck. From this ill luck idea of thirteen at the table, the number in any con nection fell into disrepute and sig nified bad luck. Eooms in hotels have to be numbered 12, 14. 15, etc., be cause so many guests refused to take the chances of staying In No. 13. There are many buildings which have 410 thirteenth floor. There are even street numbers which run 12, 12 Mi, 14 and 16. Friday is supposed to be a very bad day on which to s:art anything. This idea has come down to us from the Mohammedan tradition that Fri day is a day set apart, by Divine com mand tor oraver and worship. It is the day Adam was cVeated; it is the day he was received into Paradise; the day he was expelled irom the Gar den, the day he repented and the day he died. From this the superstition about Friday's bad luck is read.ly seen. It was believed that anyone who worked on Friday was doing wrong and would bring down punishment on him-, self. Friday also represents sorrow and death, because it is the day Christ suffered and was crucified. It is to be doubted, however, if most people know why they are superstitious about these things. They get ideas if they do certain fool things it will bring good luck or be an antidote for some evil portent. Take the horseshoe, there is not one in a dozen that will pass a horse shoe by. The shoe is carefully picked up and toted for miles to the home oi' the finder. There is an old legend that is sup posed to be the origin of a horseshoe be.ng lucky. It is told that St. Dus tan. who was known for his skill In making horseshoes, was one day vis ited in his smithy by his arch enemy, the devil. The saint recognized the devil at once, even tho ne was dis guised. He seized the devil and tied him to the wall in such a manner as to make him writhe with pain. Ever since the devil is supposed to have steered clear from any place with a ho e hoe in it or near it. The old belief that when we see a w;..te horse we may expect to see icd-headed girl probably is due to the interpretation that artists have made of Ladv Godiva's ride thru the streets of Coventry. Artists have always por trayed this savior of Coventry with reddish-golden tresses and placed on a "white horse. Another very common superstition Is that about "knocking wood" while making a boast about your good health or speaking of some good for tune -thut has been yours for some time. This is done with the idea that your fortune will not be taken from you. Spirits Dwell in Trees. Now trees have been worshipped since the dawn of history. Trees are thought to be the especial dwelling place of spirits. For this reason, trees are sacred and have great power to. ward off evil. Sacrifices were made to the deities of the trees, and it was the main idea of our primitive fore fathers to keep these spirits in good humor. To carry a piece of wood, a little twig, or any part of a tree, insured a certain amount of success, good for tune and saety. After awhile the wearing of the wood was not deemed necessary. In fact, men forgojf the spirits, but the sabredness of the tree still remained and it needed only to be touched to bring good luck. Black cats may bring either bad luck or good luck, according to your own notion. There are some people who believe that if a black cat crosses their path or comes to their home, it is a sure sign the animal is bringing good luck. The association with good luck comes from tho Egyptians, who locked upon cats black, white and otherwise, as sacred. They were even deemed worthy of being buried with their master, and there are as many as a carload of cat mummies to be found. There are persons who believe that if you met a hay wagon on the road and you make a wisn, the wish will come true, providing you do not look at the wagon after the wish has been made. The idea of hay and good luck comes- from the ancients who worshipped the gods of the fields and harvests. The idea of luck Is generally asso ciated with an old shoe. Today it is connected with weddings. It is said that the shoe had to do in ancient ceremqnies in connection with trans ferring property. In this light women were regarded as property. It is supposed to be dreadfully bad luck to measure the length of a baby. It comes with the association of measuring a person for a coffin. A person sneezes and you say, "God bless you." A popular legend says that before the time of Jacob men sneezed but once, as the shock of that sneeze proved fatal. Jacob Interceded for those who might fan victims of the sneeze, and as a result. If an ejaculatory prayer was said, no fatal result would follow. Bad Luck To Spill Salt. To spill salt is considered bad lucky This suDerstftion is also connected with the Last Supper. In DeVinci's picture Peter, who afterward denies Christ, has turned over the salt. It is no simple matter to discard what has been bred In the bone, yet nevertheless people are slowly but surely getting away from superstitious notions and ideas. We know that a taboo shingle hung in front of our automobile is not go ing to keep it ,from being stolen; we know if there is a flood, drouth or failure of crops, it" is not due to some one in the neighborhood having dis pleased the spirits. In New Tork there is a society which calls itself the Thirteen club, which is endeavoring to do away with the superstition regarding thirteen. About six or seven years ago, a well known so'ciety woman- gave a. Thirteen dinner, at which thirteen guests were invited. Even ladders were placed at the entrance of the dining room so that the guests had to pass under them. So far. no bad lucK has come to any one. The superstitious say, howrever, that the reason this particu lar dinner has not proved fatal, is due to the fact that the'hostess had a little antidote at each place in the way of a four-leaf clover: The clover itself is considered a lucky thing, but the reason the four leaf clover is especially lucky is due to nothing more than its rarity. The next time we want to do some thing foolish in the name "of -goodness knows what," let us throttle our superstitious notions once and forever! Women first appeared on the stage in the latter part of the seventeenth century. SAY "BAYER" when you buy Aspirin.

Urn Jjereer, 45, a farmer living southwest of learned, committed suicide yester day by tying a rope around his neck and fastening the other end to a horse's collar, after he had removed the horse's bridle and then frightened 1 the animal, which dragged him out of the barn and into an adjoining field. Mrs. Umberger saw the horse drag ging her husband around the field, but was unable to catch him. A pass- trig farmer came to her assistance, but they were unable to catch the horse, which finally dragged Umberger into the barn again, where the rope was cut. The horse selected for the suicide was an unmanageable one. The animal ran away with a member eyf the family the day before. Mr. Umberger's mind was affected and he had made previous attempts to com mit suicide, according to officials who investigated. EARLY WHEAT LOOKING FIXE. Ruin Came at the Right Time and 1 Farmers Are Happy. Cottonwood Falls, Kan.. Oct. 13. Farmers of this country, who were the first to sow wheat, report excellent stands and under the influence of fa vorable weather the new wheat is making an excellent growth wheat in some fields showing three or four inches high already. There remains considerable seeding yet to be done, however, as dry weather during Sep tember greatly hampered plowing. It im likely that some acreage will not be .ceded because of inability to growers to prepare and get their crops in in due season, but this is not expected to be large.

Besides introducing an innovation In the shape of a combination of the silent and spoken drama, George Beban, who comes to the Orpheum theater next Monday for a five days' engagement with his entire motion picture cast to present "The Sign of the Rose," says that his picture pro vldes a lesson for automobile owners in careful driving. In one scene of the picture a pow erful automobile is shown tearing down a wet street at a terrific pace, skills and hurls itself into a group of children playing blind man's buff. WOMEN AND MEDICINE In Kurope, years ago, a woman named Hlldegarde wrote a notable book on medicnial plants. In those days the men were busy bothering about doemas of religion and medi cine, and the study of herbs was thought beneath their notice. It was the .women, however, who mostly conducted the hospitals and cared for the sick, and thys they learned much of freat value. They let the men fight out the questions of theories I.ydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. prepared almost fifty years aso by a woman. Lyd'a E. Pink- haru, did then, and does now, relieve the ailments peculiar to women. It is a vegetable compound and of great a'ue foi this purpose. This is proven day after day. and in your own neigh- borhood, by grateful women who have ued it.

Miss El)en Gill. 2612 East Sixth ave nue, was painfully injured Thursday morning when the Ford car in which she was riding collided with a street car on the East Sixth avenue viaduct. The Ford was owned and driven by George Rodgers, who also lives on East S'xth avenue. Another Ford driven by H. C. White, 728 Lime street, also figured in the crash, but the oc cupants of this car were only shaken up, it was Baid. A dense smoke screen emitted from a switch engine passing under the viaduct is said to have prevented the motorman of the street car and the drivers of the Fords from seeing each other until it was too late. Miss Gill was taken to the Santa Fe hospital, where several stitches were taken in her neck, and bhe was then taken to her home.

More than 250 persons appeared for examination before the rural clinics conducted by the Topeka Tuberculosis association, Mrs. Kurtz H. Kellam, clinic director of the organization, an nounced today. The last county clinic was held at Richland Thursday after noon where forty persons attended. Owing to a misunderstanding; In dates due to a Topeka newspaper error, the Indian Creek Grange clinic was a flat failure this year. The doc tor and nurses appeared for the ex aminations but there were no "pa tients." The only other trouble en countered in the clinics was at Rich land Thursday afternoon when the merchants and school authorities neg lected to furnish scales for weighing the chHdren. All other clinics were highly suc cessful, Mrs. Kellam reports. Exam inations, free of charge, were held at Auburn, Wakarusa, Tecumseh, Koss ville, Berryton and Richland-. The clinics outside Topeka are a part of the program of the Topeka 1 Tuberculosis association in Shawnee county. The city and county clinics, the nursing and other tuberculosis work is supported by the sale of Christmas seals each December.

Ailing Children Get Well on Syrup Pepsin A small dote at bedtime brings relict and laughter by Bwniaf HOSPITAL and doctor's rec ords prove that 75 per cent of human illness has its origin in the intestinal canal, complicated with what is commonly called consupaiion. xe alizing what that figure means, mothers should contrive methods of handling their children while they still control them that will prevent these future dan gers. Teach chil dren regularity of bowel movement, and be especially watchful of young girls. Insist on two passages a day until the age of 18, when one is usually sufficient. Give plenty of oranges and apples, plenty of butter because it lubricates the intes tines, and encourage the drinking of water. If you detect restlessness, belch ing, gas or wind on the stomach, sleeplessness, or lack of appetite, examine the tongue and you will find it coated, accompanied by unpleasant breath. The child is bilious, constipated. According to age, give from one-half to a teaspoonful of Dr. Caldwell's $30 UtTrpUS0TtES AND pOL!EG0SSIE The Exchange State bank was given Judgment for $820.35 against P. H. Council in the district court Thursday afternoon. Fred Simms, who was arrested by the police at 124 Van Buren street a few days ago on a charge of breaking into a Union Pacific bov car and stealing several tires, waived his pre liminary hearing in the city court this morning and was bound over to the district court by Judge Paul Heinz. He was committed to Jail in default of $1,000 bond. He really isn't much account. He is mangy and bob-tailed and sad eyed. But Daniel Hamilton, the 5-year-old son of J. D. M. Hamilton, Judge of the probate court, cannot be comforted. For "Pat," his little fox terrier pet, has either strayed or been stolen. Pat wears no collar. He is black 1 and white, and what remains of his tail is black. There is a black spot on one side of his face and a white spot on the other. He has been only two days out of the hospital, where he under went a serious operation for the mange and may be somewhat weak. All of which lends color to the theory that he may have been pilfered. So if anyone finds such a pup they will stop the flow of a lot of tears by re turning him to Danny. A Jury in Judge James McCIure's court this morning returned a verdict of acquittal in the case against G. B. Dreyer, charged with robbing John Wahwassick, an Indian, in the City park last spring.

Although. in all proba' bility it was a low grade of Rio sold at a fancy price, one can look back with pleasure on the mornings when coffee, on account of its scarcity and high price, was a big addition to the meal Coffee roasting and pack' ing today is not the sim pie thing of -forty or fifty years ago, for the in' sistent demand for qual' ity has made coffee prep aration an exceedingly difficult and important operation. The half century en deavor of Hills Bros, toward one aim-highest coffee quality-has devel' oped processes of blend' ing, roasting, grinding and packing that are dis tinctly individual.
