i J"! FEDERAL ROAD AID PROGRAM IS EXPLAINED County Officials Told About Building Laws in Kansas. F. W. James Urges States to Co-operate "With Government. KEED STATE HIGHWAY DEPT. National System Eoads Would Be Great Blessing He Says. M. W. Watson Is Opposed to Present Benefit District Plan. The road laws of the United States in their application to the road laws of Kansas and the future road build ing program of this state, with the aid from the federal tjovernment. re ceived a thoro exposition from three angles at the joint meeting of the county commissioners, county engi neers and county clerks, held this morning in representative hall. Kor three hours, the county officials lis tened to explanations of the provisions of the federal aid laws, its workings, the reasons for its provisions, and the things which it can do for road build ing in Kansas. H. V. Brookaw of Hiawatha, presi dent of the county commissioners as sociation, who presided at the meeting, lec:ared. "There is now no room for mivnnrpntinn of the purposes or .urb'niri rt ihln law. and I think ev ery county official in t:s room has had any such misconceptions cleared up and his attitude toward the state highway commission of the state 01 Kansas, and toward the federal gov ernment in its efforts to assist in the building of roads in the states, if inim ical, has been changed Gotc Reactionaries Food for Thought. E. W. James, chief engineer of de sign for the United States bureau of public roads, opened the road program with a brief account of the federal road building activities of the United &tnr3E Rinrp 1815- Altho making no specific mention of the movement which has appearea in Kansas toward the abolition of the state highway commission, and the reluctance of the state to develop a rnl state aid road law. James made some pointed statements as to the provisions of the federal aid law ap plying to these projects. "Among the requirements of the first federal aid law." he said, wu the necersity of cooperation of the states with the federal government thru state highway departments be cause the federal government could net deal with the 200 counties of the state. The law required that the state hiphway departments be technical bodies, and not figureheads. The law granted them certain definite and spe c'fic authority and imposed upon them certain definite and specflc du tlis of supervision and approval. In 1921. the first federal aid law passed in 1916. expired by limitation, and it was necessary for congress to pass a new law. As a result of the experiments of the five years preced ing, new requirements were added. In the law of 1921 it provided that after three years the funds which ate matched against federal funds in the building of roads, must be bona fide state funds, not county funds, nor benefit district funds. It provided that the states themselves must main tain these roads after they had been built and a clause with teeth in it was inserted which assessed a definite fi nancial penalty on the state which fafls to maintain these roads to the satisfaction of the federal govern ment." James gave the road law reaction aries some food for thought when he 'said: "You forfeit your federal aid rights in Kansr.s if you abolish your state highway department. If you cease to maintain these roads after they have been built, or if you fail to create a real state aid road fund to match the funds of the federal government." He explained that the law of 1921 had been amended to give the states until November 9, 1928. to create this state road -fund, on account of the limitations of some states which make the amendment of their con stitutions a slow and difficult matter. James brouKht out the decision of congress to concentrate its aid pro Rram on i per cent of the highway systems -if the state. "This decision was arrived at with the approval of the Grange, the Farm Bureau and the Automobile Owners' associations of the United States." he said. "II does away witn tne napnazara application of the federal kid to an incoherent and scattered set of roads all over the data Tha 7 ont rf i crhn-a r I system win inciuae tne roaas wnicni .i i i 1 carry the heaviest traffic Greatest National messing. "The motor traffic in the United States, if a real highway system is built, will increase beyond all present conceptions." James declared. "A na tional system of roads and highways will be the greatest blessing which could come to this nation. County and state lines will be wiped out. the Atlantic coa5t and the Pacific coast will be neighbors. There will not be a provincial, a sectional or an isolated district in the United States, and we will become truly one united nation." M. W. Watson, state highway com missioner, declared that he was will ing to stop all road building and maintenance, if "we prohibit the manufacture of all automobiles, and burn those we have: stop .the produc tion of gasoline, and forbid any per son from traveling on the highways from 1 a. m. to midnight. Then and only then can we stop all road activity. "I'm not here to accuse you of ex travagance, but I honestly believe that you do not understand the cost of the present haphazard system of earth roads to this state," Watson declared, and produced figures to show the eco nomic waste of attempting to get along with cheap road. Watson declared that he is opposed fo the present benefit district plan, because the traffic is of an inter courrty and inter-state nature and the owners of land immediately adjacent to the hard surfaced roads are not rc- FORECAST FOR KANSAS Fair tonlirht and Friday.

JOB TO OVERTON Topeka n Given $20,000 Elec trical Contract Hotel Kansan. Pouring; of Concrete on First Floor Begins Saturday. The contract for the electrical work wiring and conduits In the new Hotel Kansan, was let this afternoon to E. L. Overton, of Topeka. who will begin active operation on the job Fri day morning. The electrical work on the hotel will cost more than $20,000, exclusive of the fixtures and the mo tors and transformers, which are to be installed. The wiring will include connections for 335 telephones in the rooms and departments of the hotel: there will motors and connections for three high speed elevators, and fifteen small mo tors to be used in tne Kitcnen ana bakery, as well as in other depart ments of the hotel. Transformers will be installed by the Topeka Edison company to "step down" the current from the voltage on the Edison company's power lines to the voltage required in the hotel. There will be three big switchboards to regulate the electric light and power arrangements in the hotel. The electrical crmttu.ts Tor tne rirst floor of the hotel will be Installed Fri day, said Jack Struthers, engineer in charge of construction, in ordec" to provide Tor the pouring or concrete into the basement and first floor as early as possible. "If all goes well we nope to start pouring concrete on the first floor Saturday morning." Struthers said to day. "At that we will have to pour it. piecemeal, ne-third at a time, while the forms and reinforcing are being completed. "It will take two ana a hair days to pour the concrete. There will be 350 cubic yards of it in the first floor structure." The tower from which the concrete is to be poured and which Is now be ing built will stand 144 feet above the street level, in order to secure suffi cient force at the end of the spouts to pack the concrete firmly into place. ceiving the benefit commensurate to the burden of taxation they would be required to pay. Auto Owners Should Fay. "It is only right that the automo bile owners of the state should pay for the state highway system, from which they would derive most of the benefit," Watson said. "And you are not putting anything over on them when you ask them to pay for it. Take their automobile license fees, and in the next twenty years you will have more than 160. 000,000 for road building. Add to that the money they pay in personal property tax on their cars and you would -have 000, 000 more. "And the.'o funds would Te applied to a state system of 6.575 miles of road within five miles of which are 80 per cent of the population, 85 per cent of the valuation, and 60 per cent of the area of the state. The state system would carry 85 per cent of th traffic of the state, and you would find the other funds in your treasury ample to care ior tne oiner roaus oi uw once you were relieved of all the bur-

Rodgers. chairman of the board of county commissioners of Shawnee county, who recounted the experiences which this county has undergone witlj federal aid, and urged the other coun ty commissioners to bacic the state highway commission and take full ad vantage of the possibilities of federal aid. Rodgers declared that traffic on the Victory Highway between Kansas City and Topeka, the first federal aid road built in the state, is so heavy now with the road still enrmished, that the county commissioners, in co-operation with those of other counties, are already contemplating the building of another hard surfaced road down the north bank of the Kw river, to take care of the traffic which is too heavy for the single line. With the machinery of 'their asso ciations well started at the first meet ings which were held late Wednesday afternoon, the Kansas county officials this morning launched into the real business of the convention. There had registered Wednesday night. 487 county officials in attend ance at the convention. The regis tration has been continued today, but no check has been made upon the number since Wednesday night. There were some- 500 commissioners, engi-i neers and clerks at the road meeting this morning, with five other assocta- tion meetings in progress In various IContloned oa fac X 1 PLUMS ARE JUICY Score of State Jobs Heady for w Governor to Fill. Good Salaried Positions Are at Hands of J. M. Davis. SENATE IS A REAL PROBLEM But It Is Believed There Will Be No Trouble This Year. First Plucking for Democrats Since Hodges Was in Chair. A score of state jobs with salaries attached are the plums dangling from the Kansas political tree necessarily the Democratic tree with the advent of the new governor's inauguration only six weeks ahead. With a Demo cratic governor, Jonathan M. Davis, In the chair. Democrats will doubtless receive appointments to these posi tions. It is the first time that party has been in position for political ap pointments since the election of George M. Hodges, ten years ago this fall. In addition to this score of posi tions, it is customary for the gover nor to be consulted upon appoint ments to a number of other positions. The enigma to the new political sit uation in Kansas, however, will be the fact that while the state has a Demo cratic governor, the senate by whom appointments made by the governor must be approved to become valid, has but two Democrats out of a member ship of forty. It is generally conceded, as it was when George H. Hodges was governor. that regardless of the political com plexion of the senate, the privilege of the governor to make the regular state appointments will be granted without interference from the senate. The list of appointive state offices and salaries attached are as follows: State accountant. $3,000. Adjutant general. $3,600. State architect, $3,300. Members of the industrial court (three members), $4,500 each. Public utilities commission, (two appointments), $4,500. Hotel commissioner, xz.uuu. Irrigation commissioner, $3,000. Live stock sanitary commissioner, $2,500. State oil inspector, $3,000. State highway engineer, $4,200. State board of administration (one appointment), $3,500. There are also, a number or minor appointments such, as members to state boards civil service, barber ex aminers, dental examiners, board of education, etc., to which there is no particular salary attached. SEVEN NEW STREET CARS Will Be Placed In Service on Wash burn- Hunt (Mm Unc. Seven of the ten new one-man street cars for the Topeka street Railway company arrived today over the Santa Fe after having been en route from St. Louis for more than three weeks. The remaining three are not yet in. The new cars are of the same model as those which have been running on the Washburn-Huntoon line, with some minor improvements in details. It is planned to withdraw the eignt one-man cars now on tne riumoon line, and put them thru the paint shop, where they have been due for the past four months, while the new cars take their places. When the old cars have been refinished, and return ed to the Huntoon line, the new cars will probably be put onto the West Sixth avenue or Washburn-Douthitt line, leaving only the Lowman Hill line eauiDDed with two-man cars. In case this is done, more cars will be operated, over the Washburn Douthitt line than are now run, witn a shorter time between cars, A. M. Patten, general manager of the com pan stated today, and the service on 111CLL W Droved. "None of our men will be thrown out of jobs by the putting on of the one-man cars. Our force of trainmen is now a little short, and there will be jobs for all of them, tho there will be a complete rearrangement of runs," Patten said. It will be two or three days before the new cars are assembled and testea and sent out on the line. They cost approximately $6,000 each.

Speeders See Victims in Hospital; Next Offenders Will Stare at Grim Death "When a Man Speeds in An in His Heart," Says Judge,' Who Announces Future Guilty Shall Visit County Morgue. Detroit, Mich., Nov. 16. Speeders convicted by Judge Charles Ly Bart lett next Wednesday will see an even more dismal picture of the havoc speeding has wrought than did the thirty convicted speeders who were carried' to the city hospital here and brought face to face with little chil dren, victims of whizzing autoists. They will stare at death in the coun ty morgue death brought by bowling automobiles. "When a man speeds in an automo bile he has murder in his heart," Judge Bartlett said today. "On next vv ednesday, when the weekly list or speeder violators come before me, I shall show them the tragedy of their folly. They shall see death, grim death, caused by their selfishness face to face." The judge, speaking of the hospital FIGHT FOR TRUTH Accuracy Is Miracle, of Journal ism, Says White. Modern Press Is Upheld ,,by Speaker at Manhattan,. Manhattan, Nov. IS. "The miracle of modern journalism lies not so much in the triumphs over obstacles of time and space in the gathering and dis semination of news, as in the accuracy of the press," Lee A. White, of the De troit News editorial Starr, said in an address here today before students of the Kansas Agricultural college. White a past president of Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fra ternity, is here attending the national convention of the organization. This statement as to the accuracy of the press runs counter to popular opinion," White said, "because error is conspicuous while accuracy is taken for granted, expected and not noticed. Fight Never Ending War. "The newspaper editor and reporter are engaged in a. never ending war upon those who, out of motives of self interest or prejudice, are engaged in a constant conspiracy either to spread untruth or to conceal truth. The speaker declared America never knew "as worthy., as 'honorable, as interesting and as socially serviceable press as that of toqay The press," White continued, "suf- fers unfair indictments for seeming to cater to depraved tastes in the publi cation of sensational news. Read What They Like. These indictments," he said, "are not infreauently a. confession on the Dart of the critic of an interest in sucn news out of all proportion to its im portance. For after all people fine in a newspaper what they want to read and are oblivious to that suDstan- tial news which after all everywhere predominates, but lacks the dramatic interest that the average human Dein constantly seeks." NO FIGURES ON BONUS VOTE Adjutant Samuel Estimates 320,000 Votes In Favor of Measure. While definite figures on the vote for the soldiers compensation meas ure are not available, there is no ques tion but what the measure carried by a good margin, according to Frame i, Samuel, state adjutant of the Ameri can Legion. "We will easily have 420,000 votes in favor of the measure." he assertec "and that will be amine, because tha total vote, so we understand unorn- cially. was about 615,000. The last figures available show that out of 1,471 precincts a total of 206,000 votes were cast for the measure, and 82,655 against. There are 1.100 precincts still out. and from these we expect about 110.000 votes in favor, or in other words, about the same propor tion as in the other precincts. "Most of the precincts from which we have no reports are large popula tion centers, like Wyandotte and Sedgwick counties, so we have little doubt but what the vote there will be heavy, and the proportion in favor of the bonus as great as in other sec tions." The official canvass of the votes will be completed in about ten days in the office of D. O. McCray, secretary of state.

PRICE OF CORN UP Marketing Conditions Are Stir ring Up Interest. Increase of Seventeen Cents in Last Sixty Days. Chicago, Nov. 16. Corn marketing conditions, unprecedented at any time in the last six years, are stirring up the liveliest sort of interest among grain traders here. The out tanding feature attracting attention ia that within about sixty days the value of corn has soared 17 cents a bushel at a time when the bulk of the crop is still In producers' hands. What this situation means to the farming community and to the busi ness relations of the country at large was authoritatively discussed in a state ment issued today by B. W. Snow, of Bartlett, Frazier company, former as sistant secretary of agriculture at Washington. Mr. Snow said; Advance Not Speculative. "The advance in corn is not specu lative in character but is the result of growing appreciation in market cen ters of the country situation. The crop is some 300,000,000 bushels short of last year and the stocks of old corn carried over are about 100,000,000 bushels smaller than a year ago, so that the available supply for the com ing year is fully 400,000,000 bushels smaller than was the case the past year. The surplus of corn accumu lated as a result of war urging and postwar prices has been used up, and we are once again on a basis' of cur rent supply. -"The present, price movement. has had its origin in the country with the farmers as the -price -making factor. The -country set the pace- y paying more for corn for feeding purposes, in transactions between farmers than it commanded in terminal markets. Temlnais Not Getting- It. "'Ordinarily Iowa com is tributary to the Chicago market, but this year western, southwestern ana local feed er demand has created a price that continues above the Chicago parity. California yesterday paid 66 cents a bushel for corn in Omaha, .a price fully 7 cents to 8 cents above Chi cago's relative quotations. Under these conditions, there is no materia accumulation of Xiorn stocss at termi nal mar-kets, and the ordinary com mercial demand has to oe satisfied with current receipts.

I DURING A CRISIS ONLY IS AVERAGE CITIZEN AROUSED People Forget Devotion to Sa tion, Declares Weeks. National Defense Topic of Washington Conference. SPEAKS FOR YOUNG AMERICA Consider the Mental, Moral and Physical Fitness. Lack of Interest in National Welfare Is Evident; Washington, Nov. 1 6. Men inter ested In the welfare of young America gathered from all parts of the United States met today under call of Sec retary of War Weeks, to discuss th fundamental questions of National streneth involved in the mental moral and physical fitness of the Am erica a people. Practically every college, school, or association that has to do with education or with physical well being, was represented. In his address of welcome, Secretary Weeks said: "National defense is tho underlying topic Of this conference. We are as sembled to consider the mental, moral and physical fitness of our people and to plan what we can all work to gether more Intelligently and effec tively to attain our common purpose better citizenship. We are inter ested primarily in the oncoming gen. eratlons, for upon them certainly rests the future of our nation and perhaps in a larger sense than we realize at this moment, the future of our civil ization and the world. Half Are Subnormal. "The now familiar statistics of tha draft, confirmed by numerous other studies,. Indicate that about half of our population is physically subnor. mai. lou can Imagine the possible ef fect of such a condition upon a nation, waging a war for its life with all the hardships and privations which call for a maximum physical effort and without the support of allies to sus tain it. "We are deeply Interested also, in another vital factor in national strength the attitude of the citizen toward the nation. In a crisis, such as existed during the world war, nothing surpasses the self-forgetrul devotion to country which is evidenced by our citizenship, but in times of peace dis turbing facts clearly indicate that, lacking a crisis, the average citizen is not keenly interested in the national welfare. Citizenship Unhealthy. "Strikes which Involve the discom fort and almost the irves of our peo ple; massacres, similar to the one at Herrin which should be an impossibil ity in a civilized nation; numerous or ganized groups in our nody politic striving for class or sectional advan tages; absurd political ideas, many striking at the very foundation of our form of government embraced by sup posedly intelligent people; local over shadowing national Issues at the ba! lot box re aligns of an unhealthy condition in our citizenship. Improve ment of the physical health of our people will assist In remedying th.a condition. i "Charged with the responsibility the war department Is endeavoring to effect practical solutions for the na tional weaknesses revealed by Its study of national defense problems. We realize that we are charged not only with securing victory if war comes, but also with preparing our citizens during peace so that In time of war they shall not lose their lives un necessarily ntf be foolishly wasted."

In the same mail he sent a plain envelope ad dressed to Mr. MictheU. explaining the experiment, tioth letters reached Mr. Mitchell s desk in the same de livery. From the amount of publicity given Mr. Mitchell in the last few years of his activities in Topeka and Kansas 'affairs, it is evident that Mr. Mohler needed only to have written "Kansas" on the envelope.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16, 1922 NEEDS OF CHARITY Three Topeka Institutions to Solicit Funds Soon. Representatives Tell Rotary CIuU of Their Necessities.

C, who is in the state in the interests of the federal road act now on the statute books of the United States. Mr. James made a short talk before the Rotary club at Its regular monthly meeting at the chamber of Commerce to,1av. Other talks before the club were made by Mrs. Charles B.

Mrs. Thomas de clared, seventeen of whom are chil dren under 15 years of as?. The in stitution is partially supported by the county and the c.ty but this does not supply enough funds to take care of the patients as they should be, sho declared. Topekans are to be asked for $10,000 to take care of the pa tients at Hillcrest. This money is to last over .1 period of a year. Kor the first time in twenty years funds are being asked ror to care for the a&ed people in Ingleside. the old lolks" home. Mrs. Noel declared. At present there are twenty-six homeless old people in Ingleside. and since most of them are charity patients, public funds must be had to Keep the Insti tution running. One woman there has been in the institution twenty years, another nineteen years, and a third, six'cen years. The entry fee is small, and not nearly enough to take care of the patients. Mrs. Noel explained. A sum of $10,000 is needed by the Topeka Provident association. accord Ins to Miss Virginia Campbell, secre tary, if the 200 families and a large number of orphan children are to be properly taken care of. Miss Campbell told the Rotarians about several fam ilies that have been helped by the Provident association, and pointed out the need for funds in order that this work may be continued as it has been in the past It was announced at the meeting that next week will be farmers' day at Rotary, and each member. is asked to bring one farmer with him to the din ner as his guest.

There were more than 500 of them at the buffet supper which was served at o'clock. Steinberg's orchestra played during the supper. The theme of the program was the importance of the educational institutions which are located in the capital city of Kan sas. The entertainment was furnished by these colleges.

A number of state officers were on the programs for addresses to the vari ous county associations whose activi ties come under the administration of their departments. At 2 o'clock this afternoon the pro grams were resumed after luncheon, following lines similar to those of this LEGION THANKS KANSANS Adjutant Samuel Pleased VVItli Fa vorable Vote on Bonus.

Samuel. "It is impossible for the Legion to thank individually the people and or ganizations who caused the men and women in the army, navy and marine corps from Kansas to be partially re imbursed for their economic loss in cident to their service in the world war." the resolution reads: "lhe American Legion hereby expresses its appreciation of all efforts upon the part of tne people ana me- organiza tions, and thanks them for the interest and regard they displayed upon behalf of Kansas veterans. The Legion is deeply appreciative of the fine grati tude shown by the people of this state in so overwhelmingly approving the compensaion for these veterans. "The Legion also expresses its ap preciation of all efforts upon the part of the various press and associations and newspapers in carrying this reso lution to the people of Kansas."

CONTINUE WHITE CASE Judge Harris of Lyon County Denies a Continuance. Merely because the 1922 political campaign is ended William Allen White's case involving his right tc post strike sympathy placards will not be dismissed and forgotten. Judge W. A. Harris of the Lyon county dis trict court has denied a continuance and Governor Allen and Richard J. Hopkins, attornel general, must pros ecute whether they want to or not. -White protested against a continu ance which would carry the case" be yond the terms of -the two retiring state officials. Governor Allen did not want the case tried now. Neither did Hopkins. The latter went on 'a hon eymoon trip and will not be home for a couple of weeks. But White is de manding a hearing after ail the free publicity which state officials received in the controversy. And in conse quence of his demands the Lyon county district judge has refused to continue the case. Governor Allen has stated that he presumes the attorney general will immediately proceed with the case. He previously explained that Hopkins and all of his assistants are busy and that it is impossible to try the case now. White wants Governor Allen to push the case and make a real test of the issue involving the Emporia newspa per man's right to post the strike sym pathy placards. "I know that if the governor takes this case in hand I will nave a real trial," White said. "Maybe a convic tion. But that does not bother me. I would rather have a conviction than a dismissal or a whitewash. I would rather be sent to jail ror differing with a governor like Henry Allen, who has the copper-lined guts of a real man than to stick ground at liberty under a milk and' water pumpkinhead like some governors."

The operating of the state peniten tiary at Leavenworth on a profit earning basis was advocated by M. F. Amrine. warden, in an address before the Men's Brotherhood of the First Baptist church Wednesday night. Ho urged that all profits be used for the aid of the dependent families of prisoners. "While it would not be fair for the people of Kansas to be taxed to sup port the families of law Breakers. Kansas cannot, make a business of making money from the .criminals," he said. "However, it is the innocent families of imprisoned men, who get the hard knocks as the result of crime. At present the prison is little more than self-sustaining. A sum of $50,000, which could be easily real ized, should the prison be allowed to become a profit earning concern, would go a long way toward alleviat ing some of the hardships that the families of prisoners have to endure."

Headache Rheumatism Lumbago Pain, Pain WEEKLY LABOR REPORT Total of 1,308 Persons in Kansas Out of Work Last Week. During the week ending last Satur day, there were 1,306 persons out of work in Kansas, according to reports received from the seven labor offices of the state. Judge John H. Crawford, head of the labor department of the industrial court, announced today. 1 This' was a decrease of 25 persons from the previous week. Placements made by the seven ornces during the week numbered 1,037 and notifica tions were received that 929 of the people referred to Jobs had actually gone to work.

There were 213 out of work at Hutchinson: Salina and Topeka eacvi had 202-unemployed; Kansas City, 174; Parsons, 88, and Emporia, 22. Calls for help came from aM lines i during the week and generally were satistactory as to wages, judge craw ford said.- The demand for corn husk ers and farm labor is steadily increas ing and packing plants and factories are calling for skilled labor. The car shortage is still causing some unemployment in mills and oth er lines depending upon delivery of materials. Judge Crawford said. A Smooth, White Skin That 'Defies Weather During the coming months of biting winds and intense cold, you who would keep your skins smooth, white and. vel vety, should turn your attention to mer colized wax. Nothing else will so effectively prevent -or remove n chapped, roughened or discolored surface. By gradually absorbing the wenther-benten cuticle, the complexion is kept in perfect condition, and even the beauty of ex pression appears more pronounced.

One ounce of ordinary mercolized wax, to be had at any druggist's, will completely transform the most unsightly complexion in less than a fortnight. Use the wax nightly, like eold cream, washing It off raorninp. Adv. DOCTOR DISCOVERS NEW RUPTURE REMEDY Akron, Ohio.

HuUa, Director, Washing tow. It. C. ,Th defeat of Judge J. Curran in Crawford county at the recent election afford little encouragement to the bench to dolta duty. Also, It gives strength to the contention that Judges should be appointed so that their tenure of office would not be subject to the popular will. The people have the right to make the laws but when these laws once have been made their administration should be untrammeled by popular approval or condemnation. Judge Curran's defeat doubtless was due to his enforcement of the Indus trial court law. He was penalized by the union coal miners for correctly In terpreting s law- with the enactment of which he had no more 'to do than the miners themselves. The a ef eat sustained by the state of Kansas was much more serious than the defeat sustained by Judge Curran. Senator Lolge was re-elected In Massachusetts by a plurality of 1,945 votes. Opponents of the League of Nations will not ba able to extract much satirfaction from these figures. jtlr. Davis, the successful candidate fir governor, has pledged repeal of the industrial court law. The New YorK Times wants to know how he is going to do it while the legislature remains Republican. The Kansas In dustrial court, says the Times. Is a promising; and may be a fruitful ex periment. That It is criticised by both employers and employes seems to be evidence of Its fairness. Several gentlemen this year were elected to one or the other branch of congress by a combination of the farmer and labor vote. In order to perpettfate the comblnatlonlt will be necessary for them to find some way to reduce freight rates and Increase railroad wages at the same time. It is announced In the dispatches that 120.000 new apartments are need fed to house residents of Moscow. But just why should anybody desire to lire in Moscow? Tho number of deaths resulting from automobile accidents in .Kansas during 1921 averaged 9.3 persons per 109,000 population, an Increase from 8.T persons during the previous year, according to statistics made public by the department of commerce, Wash ington. Probably the majority of these casualties were due to the grade cross ings and therefore could have been prevented. The figure can be mater ially reduced by eliminating these death traps. The new legislature should take cognizance of the matter. The wires carry the news of the kill ing of a Mexican colonel. But what is a Mexican colonel more or less in a land where colonels are more numer ous, even, than they are in Kentucky. Belated returns from the election how that voters of Massachusetts were not so wholly taken up with re turning Mr. Loda?e to the senate that they did not find time to rap prohi bition. The "Old Bay State" called for a referendum regarding an act of the legislature Intended to carry out the provisions of the federal law and the voters refused to i-pprove it- Opening of the Missouri. Mississippi and Ohio rivers to furnish competi tion with the railroads and give Oma ha, Kansas City, St. Louis, Minneapo lis and St. Paul an outlet at cheap rates to the east ana south is to be proposed in the next congress in a bill asking a billion-dollar bond issue for the purpose.

Miss Alice Robertson, eongresswo man of Oklahoma, has placed herself in the, class of poor losers. She re sents her defeat for re-election and has declared her intention of shaking the dust of Muskogee from her feet. Miss Alice Paul, vice president of the national woman's party, deplores the fact that not a single woman was elected to the Sixty-eighth congress- She ascribes it to lack of 'solidarity" among women. In turope, sne says. women gladly vote for candidates of their own sex, and many women sit in national assemblies. In the United States. aDDarently. women in the main are Indifferent to proper representa tion of their sex in lawmaking and Dolicr-shaping bodies, and therefore Miss Paul thinks they may remain in definitely a "subject class." Apparently men and women alike refuse to vote for a woman merely because she la a woman. When wo men were placed on a political equal ity with men they lost all claim to nolitlcal preferment on account of their sex. This seems to be recog- ized and accepted by women and men alike. When women run for office they promptly discover on the part of most politicians and of many if not most men voters-a nearly complete lack of that special consideration which is commonly supposed and usually ad mitted to be their due, merely because they are women. Instead of deriving, in this particular activity, an advan tage from their sex, they find it to a considerable extent detrimental, and not in the way to which trrey always have been accustomed, for it Is not re lated to the possession of less physi cat strength, than. men. It appears to have been established that if women desire to serve their countrymen In an official capacity they must furnish evidence of quail ficatlon for the place to which they aspire and then take their chances with the voters just as mere man al ways has done. It cannot be said with any degree of certainty that those who fail of election are the victims of prejudice. A big life insurance companyre ports that deaths from alcoholism, ex clusive of those due to wood alcohol poisoning, among its policy holders, numbered 203 for the nine months ending September 30. This is 80 more deaths than occurred during the whole year 1921, says the report. Whether people are drinking more or the quality of the liquor has deterior ated does not appear. Unless new drunkards are coming on to take the places of those who die the tribe soon should disappear. MAKING HARDING THE GOAT. There has been a marked disposi tion on the part of the present con gress to make President Harding the goat. This was evidenced in the pas sage of the soldier bonus bill, in the face of the president's announcement-) that he could not sign it unless the money with which to pay the service men were provided. In order to find favor with the sol dier voters at the polls this month congress went ahead and passed the bill, leaving Mr. Harding to bear ajone the blame for its failure to become a law. That the voters were not deceived was evidenced at the election. Many members of the present congress failed to be returned and many others who were re-elected got by with great ly reduced majorities. Again was the tendency to shunt responsibility onto- the president shown in the framing of the tariff bill. Apparently fearing publics dis approval of the duties established congress included in the tariff bill a provision enabling the president to change the rates whenever they be- ccme objectionable. But this again did not prevent the voters from visit ing their condemnation on the framers of the bill at the polls. It must be said on behalf of Mr. Harding that he has shown no dispo sition to shirk the responsibilities thrust 'upon him. It took nerve to veto the bonus bill and it will take nerve to alter the tariff rates but al ready he has begun to consider the complaints that are pouring in. The president haa made it evident that he thinks more of performing his duty to the country than he does of laying the foundation for a re-election by catering to any faction, how ever strong. It is clearly inevitable that for every dollar's worth of goods we im port, if they could be produced here, we deprive the American producer of one dollar's worth of business. There can be no question whatever about that. Protection is the true American policy. Brooklyn Standard Union. If this policy be good for the United States a similar policy would be good for every other country in the world. If it should be adopted universally what would become of international commerce? It is certain that we would have no use for a mercantile marine. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL- Information Bureau nUDUUO a. HASKUr, Dlreotar, Washington, D. C TRAPS FOB THE THIRSTY. Washington. D. C, Nov. 12. The prohibition situation in this country has suggested to some European pro moters a new and prozitable game. There is the American, thirsty and with plenty of money, meditates the get-rlch-qulck European. Thoughts of sherry and port, Mosene and Rhine wine must recall to him a lost para dise. Why not offer him a concen trated mixture with which he can re construct these fine ss'intages? It would not be necessary to go to much trouble, a-ny simple preparation of fruits would do. No pome brewer would" be likely to analyze the prepa ration, "and if he did he would be afraid to report his findings lest the prohibition authorities nab bfm on some technicality. What scheme could be safer or more promising? The result of some such reasoning on the part of one German manufac turer has resulted In 200,000 circulars a month beins poured into the United States. Americans are offered for a dollar a mysterious pacxage contain ing the basis for making two and a half gallons of absolutely pure port, sherrv. Malaga. Moselle. Rhine and Tokay. One package makes any of 'em. "Retains ail qualities of tne original because it is the original," the circular claims. A dash of atmosphere regarding old Europe and its famous vintages is skillfully worked into the advertise ment to give it the lure of romance. The idea is definitely expressed that you can reconstruct the exact conti nental product in your cellar without any plant of your own and with very little trouDie. How many "suckers" have been taken in by this too generous offer will probably never be known. That the business has been prospering. however, we do know from the pro moter's own statement. When ques tioned by the United States consul at Munich he said that he was sending out 10t). 000 circulars everv two weeks and that he would send many more if he could F"t the printing done. He had a staff of about ten people and he contracted with a plant to put up his formula. The secret of the for mula ho refused to divulge, but he ad mitted that a satisfactory percentage of people responded to his advertising. Victims Afraid to Complain. Americans who trustingly paid their mqney and gpt the magic essence have not complained to tne postoiiice de partment. As the promoter undoubt edly foresaw, they are arrald of the prohibition law. which nooody seems to understand any too well. But other Americans who have no cellars or no thirst have become indig nant when they received the circulars. Protests by the hundreds have been coming into the postofflce department from citizens who protested against the mail a containing matter of such illegal tendencies, especially as the proposition seemed to have a caeash in it somewhere. The postal officials investigated. and the bureau of chemistry analyzed the mixture, with the result that fraud order was issued last May against the German company. The government chemists reported that the preparation was found "to consist essentially of two ingredients, via., fruit of a rose commonly called rose hip and a fruit or the prunes family, apparently a buckthorn." The report further said, "It is impossible for these ingredients to prepare stan dard wines of any kind and certainly not those referred to in the advertis ing matter. No wine of recognised quality and character can be made from the mixture examined." Anyone who stopped to consider would realize that whilo European wines at European prices may seem cheap to us in view of bootleg quota tions, two and a half gallons of real wine could hardly be compressed by machinery and sold profitably for a dollar. The fact Is about the only thing the American customer could get out ol this deal is the thrill of feeling that ha is in touch with the romantic at mosphere of -old European vineyards. Aside from getting mail postmarked rom a German-city, even the thrill is imitation. Better materials for making bever ages could be bought at the corner store than, the mystio preparation from the European factory. Firm Takes New Name. In spite of government attack, this particular firm bobs up under a new name and in a different European city every few weeks and operates profitably until the government gets out a new, supplemental fraud order to co r its latest name. When this occurs, mail addressed to the company is ordered returned to the sender stamped, "Fraudulent: Mail to this address returned by order of the Postmaster General." If no return address is given the mail goes to the dead letter office. Postmasters re also forbidden to make out postal money orders to the company named. This firm Is not tne oniy one or its kind, tho It is apparently the most prosperous and Irrepressible. A num ber of schemes of a different sort for relieving the thirst of America have been evolved in Canada. One Toronto man sent out circulars with a letter head "s Pure Canadian Rye, the Beverage of your Grandfathers." This circular, widely distributed by mail, offered twelve full quarts of Canadian rye shipped to any point in the United States for sis. and sale delivery guar anteed. The United States and Canadian postal authorities both investigated this project. The man's alibi was that he had no intention of violating the American prohibition laws. Nothing was further from his mind than to ship any liquor into the United States. nstead. he intended to send twelve full quart cartons of Canadian rye grain. So far as the officials could learn, no shipments of grain had been made to customers in return for their money when the investigation was conducted. Whether or not this project was a violation pf the prohibition law, the intent to msjlead the public was ob- ious.and a fraud order was issued osing the mails to the Ingenious Canadian, who. by the way, originally hailed from the United States. Other promoters in Montreal and Quebec have tried variations of this scheme. Generally the idea seems to be to offer the liquor, get the money nd orders for shipments, and then close out without sending anything. To gain a little more time for busi ness, if customers get impatient, some subterfuge, like sending the grain, is employed. DINNER STORIES- Four-year-old Charles was visiting a country auction with his father and older brother. The little chap did not say much during the morning. ing too much interested in the st ra e things about him; fend at noon, being very hungry, the bountiful lunch which his mother had packed for them claimed his attention. But even hungry little boys have a. limit- He had almost gone the round of the lunch basket, but there remained for him a great piece ol cnocoiate cake. He took the cake and like most small boys, began with te frosting. When that was gone the cake assumed pro portions far beyond his capacity: After eazlne a moment at the now unattrac tive cake, he turned bese jhingly to his brother and holding out tne cake asked: "How much am I -ffered for thit pieth of cake?" His brother, with eight-year-old su Derioritv. answered. "Nothing." "Thold," said Charles, and solemnly passed the defrosted cake to his brother's plate. Judge. Little four-year-old Jimmy, being told to pray for his absent father, for his small brother who was ill and the servant who sprained her ankle, did so. But to his mother's astonishment he concluded as follows: And now, God, please take good care of yourself, for if anything happens to you we 11 ail be in tne soup."

Of course, courtship, which is all billing and cooing, and kissing, and the honeymoon which is tho hang over from the courtship, and is also linked with sweetness long "drawn out, do not fall under this condemnation. They are mere sentimental interludes, a midsummer madness, for which marriage is generally a. sovereign cure. Perhaps it is because men have a better understa skiing of love and romance than women have that hus bands seem more successful in pre serving theirt wives attection man wives are in keeping their husbands Interested in them. Men know that you must use sentiment sparingly, as you do sugar, to sweeten domestic life. and so they keep their wives always asking for more. Women try to make the whole dish of sugar, and it is too sweet for the taste of the average man. A very little of it suffices, and he doesn't ask for a second helping. The trouble is that women forget that there is nothing on earth on which we cannot be surfeited; that there is nothing of which we do not tire if we get too much of it. We can be so fed up on the things of the soul as well as the body, that we have no further appetite for them. 'Feed me on apples, stay me with flagons, for I am sick of love, "cried Solomon, who had several hundred af fectionate wives, and so cries rnanya man and woman of today who have the misfortune to be united to overly affectionate spouses. There can never be too much of the love that expresses itself in tender ness and forbearance, and cherish ing the welfare and happtness of the beloved one, but -a very little of the love that demonstrates its existence in petting and love talk gr ?s a long way. This is especially true In the marital relationship, and many a wife kills her husband's love for her by boring hinii to death. She makes a ritual of the daily kiss, and it gets to be as much of a distasteful burden as any other chore you have to do twice every day of your life.

"That makes fifteen,", said Henry Blake, as he tore up another half- written letter and dropped the frag ments into the waste basket. "I'll write one more and if it doesn't pull thru I'll quit. But there's""- jinx on my asking Adele to share my ranch and rations!"- If you had asked Henry Blake why he didn't walk ngnt up to Aaeie ana put the question to her pointblank, he would have told you solemnly that every time he looked into Adeles blue eyes he simply forgot everything he 1 1 ,1 1 C ever knew. "Completely razz led, he would add-grimly. Ivw he was writing his sixteenth letter. His fountain pen labored stutT teringly over the task, just as Henry's thoughts stuttered in hurried con fusion. "Dearest Adele" "Adele darling" pshaw! "Dearest" With a rend ing of paper the sixteenth letter fol lowerd its fellows. Henry glared at it maliciously. Then, overcome with a sudden fear that the inquisitive cook, Ah Sing, might discover and hoard these scraps of paper, so that he might pursue his slow study of the "Melican langwidg," Henry scratched the frag ments out of the basket and stuffed them into his pockets, to burn at the first available opportunity. Screwing the top on to his fountain pen, he went out into the late afternoon sunshine, determined to find some other way to tell his love to Adele before one of his i-ivnia rnrfe boldlv away with the pret tiest and most desirable girl in the country. "Hooray!" crowed Henry, and he rushed to the telephone. The Barton ranch, give miles away, was only one of six on that party line, and as Adele's voice came singing over the wire Henry heard four subdued clicks as the other subscribers listened in. Hello," sang Adele. mat you. Henry?" yes," said enry, not wun eiiioa.r- rassment. "I wanted to talk to you about something "Oh, yes!" invited Adele.

'Of course and what were you go- Insr to ask me. Henry." she inquired sweetly. (Henry could not see her tender smile, nor could he even dream that' she sent -him a silent kiss into the mouthpiece.) Ask you why, Adele, I just want ed to know if you wouldn't like to ride over to Red Butte and meet me at the waterfall. I'll bring over some roastin" ears and we can have a little fire and see the sunset." 'Lovely!" cried Adele. "I will make some sandwiches now Suppose I start at 6 o'clock, and .we will meet at the trail crossing. So long! Henry hung up the receiver with a baffled look in his fine eyes. "I give up," he muttered grimly, as he went to the corral to get his norse.

Serves me right, too." He bent his head to the black horse, who nuz zled his sunburned face lovingly. Ah Sing came out with the roasting ears and coffee pot in a sack, which he deftly fastened to Blake saddle. "So long!" said Henry, as he rode away. '"Slolong glpod luck!" called the Chinese affably. Henry blushed as he rode out of the gate. He stared straight ahead when he passed the Fancher place, for Mrs. Fancher was sitting on the stoop of the distant ranch house. There wasn t any use in getting mad at folks, he told himself. They were klndhearted neighbors and friend, and would do anything in the world to help each other. He would stop in and apolo gize to Mrs. Fancher on his way home. He turned his horse into the old trail and rode rapidly until he came to the trail crossing. "Slow- Poke!" greeted Adele from the shade of a cottonwood. Henry grinned sheepishly, not aware that Be looked like a very handsome schoolboy in his riding clothes. Adele flashed a glance at him from under her long lashes as they rode side by side. Her soft color rose under the scrutiny of his sidewise glance, "I am starved," she said vivaciously. "I put up heaps of sandwiches, ham and lettuce like 'em. Henry?" "Tou bet!" fervently. "I've got roastin' ears and coffee, and, a box of chocolates t was intending to bring over to vou Sunday night, only- he grew hot and uncomfortable as he hesitated.

"Here we are, Henry doesn't the sky look"" wonderful you make the fire and I'll fix the corn." They hob bled the horses and Henry set about making a small fire on an old camp fire site a circle of stones, set in a shallow hole scooned out of the earth. Watching the blazing fire. Henry thought of the torn letters in his pocket, Here was an opportunity to hnrn them iin. while Adele worked de murely over the corn. It was one of life's ironies, he thought, that he must burn in her presence those stuttering letters that were addressed to ner, ,1,1 n-iiirit lie -wan too shv to finish, tho his love for her looked out of his eyes and filtered thru his most casual words when he addressed her. He dropped a double handful of the torn paper on the fire. A mischievous breeze whirled a few of them toward Adele. Tfcey skimmed across the crass and fluttered about her little brown boots. Henry muttered under his breath as he dropped the remainder of the papers on the fire and despairingly saw a third of them fly over to Adele. "What are you trying to do. Henry?" she asked over her shoulder. "Just burning up some letters. The wind's acting up like the very dickens here, I'll pick them up!" He effrang forward to rescue the pieces of his love letters, but Adele had espied her own name, and her little brown fingers were nimble. She clutched them tightly to her breast- "The corn is ready, Henry," she said coolly, tho her eyes were like stars. "The corn? All right," he said sul lenly and walked away to the fire. He went about the preparations doggedly, not daring to look at Adele. who sat apart, staring at the glowing face o Red Butte bathed in the sunset glory. "Supper's ready," be said in an un natural voice. "Come here, said Adele. He obeyed, his face pale with suppressed emotion. "Henry Biake," said Adele, lifting her dazzling eyes, to his, "I want the rest of those letters!" "In the fire ashes burned up," said Henry curtly. "They are mine I saw my name you had written them to me you had no right to tear them up." "Tou wouldn't have wanted them "I read enough Ieaw the scraps they came flying to me in spite of you and, Henry, I'll forgive you, on one condition." "What is that?"

Sunday dawned bright and beauti ful and my spirits rose. We would have our long ride together, and with Claire along Grace- would not be so free perhaps; not say things I, with my slower moving wits, found hard to answer. George's car was a sedan, easily holding five people. As he was to drive himself, there was plenty of room for another. They had stopped for Claire, then drivers up to our apartment so we could start off to gether. Walter had taken the largest bas ket and gone ahead of me. Intending to put it in George s car. Just as I reached the curb, laden with boxes, X heard him say: "Why not stop for Miss Ralstrom, Harter? There ia plenty of room in your car, and the. more the merrier always on a picnic." "Just as you say! Thl is your funeral!" George answered, and I thought he-threw jl covert glance at me. I longed to object, but I knew Wal ter's tenacity of purpose. If opposed he never gave in, only was the more determined. So with my eyes misted by tears I dared not let fall I took my seat in the runabout. We hurried orr, going out of the way to get Helen Ralstrom. Before anyone else could offer, Walter iiimned from the car and ran up the walk. Helen appeared almost" instantly. Hue was dressed in a Diue costume, her favorite color, and looked charming. "This is awfully good of you all," she called. "I won't keep you waiting a moment." She was out hatted and cloaked almost immediately. A sus picion entered my mind. Could Wal ter have communicated with her, had he planned to ask Georgo to invite her, and did that account for her be ing so perfectly dressed early Sunday morning? But even this suspicion was ban ished by Walter's lively chatter, the easy riding car, the lovely day. She couldn't be with him, and it was sel fish in me to begrudge her a day's outing. We had a long, lazy day in the woods. Georgeemd .Walter built a fire by gathering small stones and heaping them into acircle, then" gath ering dried twigs to make a fire un der a thin flat stone placed In the cen ter. We made coffee, fried bacon and eggs, and were as noisy and gay as a lot of children. We had bronght many goodies, but nothing tasted so good as the bacon and eggs cooked on a stone Several times during the day I had scolded myself because of my fears that Helen would spoil my day. She was rather the quietest one of the party; showed no intention of pushing herself, and most of the time kept near Claire. I saw she and Grace were unfriendly, but both had too much tact to allow it to become too obvious; t let it spoil the day. George lacked on with a laxily cyni cal eye as usual. He seemed to watob Walter, especially every time he spoke to Helen, in a, peculiar manner, as if he expected something to' hap pen, was looking tor it. But x paid little attention. We were having a delightful day, why spoil it by won dering what George was thinking of 7 It was 4 o'clock, and beginning to get chilly before anyone spoke of go ing home. Then we picked up the baskets, carefully disposing of any rubbish. When I turned from wrap ping something, I saw Helen Ral strom seated beside Walter in the roadster. I sto-f perfectly still for a moment, "then said: "Aren't you la, the wrong ear. Miss Ralstrom?' "No, I am going to ride home with Walter and give you my place in the sedan," she quickly returned. I felt the tears coming. I trembled with anger. Then I caught a glimpse of George Hart or" s cynically smiling lips, the look in nis eyes, ana witn an effort I pulled myself together. 'Come get this basnet, waiter?" i called, and as he came close I said I'm so disappointed not to ride home with you." 'Helen la crazy over tne roadster: Don't be a pig, Doreen." I said nothing more,' ana started for the sedan. Claire and Grace were in the rear sect, and George said: 'You're to sit next to me in front. Doreen.' Without a vora I took my seat, but not before I had seen a gleam ofaat isfaction in George Harter's eyes. What did it mean? I felt as if he had some sinister plan concerning me. but why should he?

The Great Alexander's floating car tilage! Have we got to go thru with all that again? The reason we ask is that we've been thru it so many times. We heard J. M.

Now that the business of saving the country -rS completed, the column re sumes its contemplaton of the New Brunswick tragedy. As everybody knows, we presented a solution of the crime within a week after it was committed. We should have presented the solution much earlier had we be gun our -reading of the case immedi ately subsequent to the tragedy; but, somehow, we never can get interested in a murder case until It is three or four days old. By that time Adelaide is reading it and, rather than appear ignorant in her sight, we equip and fortify ourself with knowledge of its details. But what we set out to say is the thing that intrigues us the thing that has always intrigued us in the connection is Mrs. 'Hall's contention that she did not suspect her husband. It may be true that Mrs. Hall didn't suspect her husband. Anything may happen once. There may be, once or twice in a generation, a woman who doesn't suspect her husband. But the idea that a woman can live in a town the size of New Brunswick without being duly advised concerning her husband is ,a most fantistic one. In the first place, while the slick detectives often are thwarted in their attempts to solve small-town mys teries, the people always know. And, in the second place, in every small town there are dozens of persons who lie awake all night in order that they may get up early and carry to the in

The women promised faithfully that their participation would invest politics with a new meaning and a new phraseology. What we should like to known is when the investiture is to be gin. That's precuvly what a man would have said. Of a fact, we have heard men say it times without num ber. As one whose fondest belief is that life should and does break fifty-fifty. we would not take from Mr. Wilson the gloating which is his. It is his moment. He may nencr have another. Let no man intrude upon the salving of his soul. And, we go on to say, when it comes to gloating,. Mr. Wilson give as fine an exhibition as any man .we know. Every once in a while something happens to cheer us out of all propor tion to its personal significance. Mary Garden is quoted as saying that the sort of husband, she wants is old and has lots of sense, but that, unfortu nately, all such men are married. Miss Garden is reported as having passed lightly and gracefully over Harold McCormick and his bride, Ganna Walakl. If she did, it was one of the artistic triumphs of her career.

LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK BT IiEB PAPE. My cuzzln Artie stayed at our house all nite last nite, and after a wile we went to bed on account of having to, and we laid there tawking and argew ing and we started to have a debate on which came ferst, the chicken or the egg, me saying, Wy certeny eggs came ferst. Zlggs is the most import ant. If all the chickins suddinly gat the chickin pox and died, there would ent be eny more fresh eggs after about 2 days but if there was a law passed suddinly agenst eggs we'd still have fresh chickins, wouldent we? I sed. Maybe we would, but wat good would they be if they wasent allowed to lay eggs? Artie sed. A chickin that dont lay eggs mite as well go somewhere and retire, he sed. Chick ins is the most important becauae wenever you see a chickin you can ixpect a egg eny minnit, but you see thousands of eggs without even think- ing of chickins and that proves it takes chickins to make eggs but most eggs never made a chickin and never will. Well thats t.11 rite but a chickin can keep on making eggs and not think envthing about it, but look at the sac rifice a egg makes wen it makes a chickin. Certeny eggs is the most important, I sed. No sir, chickins are. Artie sed. No matter how meny different eggs a chickin has layed its still usefill eriuff to eat, bu- after a egg makes Jest one chickin, ware is it? he sed. Sure, thats Jest it, I sed, and Artie sed, Certeny it is. And we started to argew louder about who was winning the argewment, him or me, and pop came in the room in his pldjammers saying if we dident wunt to go to sleep other people did and if he herd another sound-out of us we would heer some more sounds out of him.

In the Missouri valley Kansas meets """Colorado for a contest at Lawrence; Orinnell plays Drake in res Moines; Washington goec to Columbia for a contest with Missouri; Central plays Iowa State in Ames; Texas comes north to" meet Oklahoma in Norman, and Kansas Affile meet Nebraska on the sawdust field in Lincoln. Hays Normal a nd College of Em poria should play a fairly even con tent on the Presbyterian field Friday, vith C. of K. slishtly the favorite. C. (nf K. won from Kansas Wesleyan, 14 jto 0. so the dope really favors the J lem-y crew. The College has wins over Washburr.. Pittsburg Normal and Ottawa, besides Kansas Wesleyan. It tied with Southwestern, but lost to Sterling. Hays has lost to McPherson, St. Mary's and liethany. and won from Ottawa and Kansas Wesleyan. Pittsburg normal is easily the favor in th? lnh between Ottawa, and 1 "urg Friday afternoon, on the' O -av.a t'eld. -Ottawa has lost all of i's games this season, and Pittsburg i':t v on oie. Pittsburg lost to Col- o- of Km porta 14 to 0, while the best the college could do to Ottawa was 14 to 7. Thio. of course, gives Ottawa the cdantace. but some of te regulars v nc ut of the lineup for C. of iZ. r.hen it met Ottawa. Coach K. R. Ki be! declares he is going to win at leat t-ne game this 'your, and this game may be the one he had in mind. While Fairmount has a win of 7 to 0 credited to it over Sterling in the nontext last year, it looks like the Hhockfrs were in for a pretty hard game this year. Sterling has come back strong aiter an early season weakness. The team has taken games from College of Kmporia. and Ottawa. It really looks as tho Fairmount might lose this game, while in com parative scores the Wichita school has the edge. Baker, after starting the season with an unusually weak offering against McPherson, has staged a comeback which may tie it for the state championship. There is but one way this could happen and that is for College of Emporia to win from Kan sas State normal, which seems unlike ly at this time. Baker a-rn.s to be in a ftosrtion to win all of the games re maining on the Methodist calendar. Direction Hostottlrr Amnvmrnt Co.

Friends is the favorite. Bethel has played but two Conference games this year, both of them being defeats.

NEW BLOOD SAVES DOG But It Had To Be "Blue Blood," So a Pedigreed Pup Makes Sacri fice for "Major," a Boston Bull Terrier. Oakland, Cal.. Nov. 16. Blood transfusion from the veins of "Ap'ache French," a pedigreed pup, to those of "Major," a Boston bull terrier, has saved the latter's life. "Major's" ill ness was caused by swallowing two ice cream spoons which the veterinar ian removed, but the shock and loss of blood nearly caused the death of the patient. The owner of a large husky dog, whose lineage was a trifle doubtful, offered the blood of his pet, but Jack Russell, "Major's" master, refused. "It's going to be blue blood." he said, "anything else would break my dog's heart." When the pedigreed pup became available the two doss were put on the operating table. The transfusion operation took an hour and a half. And both patients are recovering. We Would Like to Fit You, Sir! We have Good Shoes for S6.50 rru mc trsrtac stouc rts Kansas avz. niece.
