Injunction Denied, But Stay Order Is Continued. (Br the Aoc!aled Pres.) Chicago, Nov. 17. Test of the new grain futures trading regulatory act today was passed to the United States supreme court by action in the federal district court here. Judge George A. Carpenter denied the bill for an injunction filed by the Chicago board of trade, but continued in force a stay order preventing en forcement of the law, and then grant ed the board an appeal to the supreme court. This the court explained would be the shortest method of reaching an adjudication of the constitutional ity of the act. Judge Carpenter also denied a pe tition of the American Farm Bureau federation to intervene in the suit. exDlaining that while the government would welcome any assistance of the federation, he saw no important rea son why the organization should be made a co-defendant with the govern ment. Will End Uncertainty. Leading grain men said that the action today and continuance or tne stay order preventing enforcement of the law would serve to end the feel ing of uncertainty in the grain trade. Henry S. Robbins. counsel for the board of trade, said there would have been "no end of business disturbance" which would have resulted from en forcement of the law. Mr. Robbins, in addressing the court, resorted to the original Capper-Tincher act. ani said that the old law has only been re-enacted, with e few changes.

TO BUILD $106,00DCHURCH Westminster Presbyterian Plan lluiidiug on Boewell Avenue.

Tentative Draft of Message Be fore Cabinet Today. HOPEFUL OF SHIP SUBSIDY fBelieres Bill Will Be Passed Despite Oppo&tion. Administration Program Calls for Vacation March 4. Washington, Nov. 17. Agreement was reached by house leaders today to take up the ship subsidy bill next Thursday, under a rule providing for three days of general debate and un limited opportunity ror amendments, with a final vote on November -29. Washington, Nov. i 17. President Harding today presented to the cabi net th tentative draft of his message to the special congress 'which he is expected to deliver at the capitol in person Tuesday afternoon. Only a few minor details remained to be cleared up before the message is read for final presentation, it was said. The president is anxious to se cure approval of his cabinet to the draft before putting It in final form. The message is said to be short, but forceful, and deals almost exclusively with the merchant marine act, to which the administration is pledged. Other legislative matters will bW dis cussed only in a perfunctory manner. Lt&sker Also Optimistic Mr. Harding feels hopeful that, the Fhip subsidy can be passed before March, despite the strong opposition expected to be launched against it. especially in the senate. This optimis tic attitude also is held by Chairman Lasker. of the shipping board. Nothing will be left undone by ad ministration supporters to jam the measure to passage with all possible expedition. President Harding has stressed this point in conference with congressional backers. The president is particularly anxious, it is said, that the ship subsidy be cleared from the legislative calendar in order that ap propriation bills can be passed before March 4, thus avoiding the necessity of calling a special session of the new congress next spring. The president wants to give the nation a long rest from congress after March. The G. O. P. Program. Im addition to the ship subsidy, the Republican program for this session. f&id to have been tentatively agreed upon in discussion between the presi dent and leaders of the senate and house, is reported to include: 1. Passage of all regular appropri ation and supply bills, 2. Consideration of legislation to establish a system of long term credits. ranging from two to' three years, for farmers. 3. Consideration of amendments to the transportation act, aimed to strengthen the railroad labor board and meet objections set up by agri culturists as to what they term discrimination in freight rates for farm communities. 4. Consideration of a constitutional amendment to prohibit issuance of tax exempt securities. The administration will discourage any attempt to revive the soldier bonus issue at this time. Despite conflict ing reports, President Harding, ac cording to his spokesman, has not changed his mind on the question and if anything, is more opposed to the bonus now than when he vetoed, it. OFPOSE CONSOLIDATION PLAN Hill Interests Attack the Proposed Regional System Before I. C. C. Washington, Nov. 1 7. Whether transcontinental railroads in the northwest should be consolidated into two regional systems, one built around the Great Northern and the Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul, and the other around the Northern Pacific and Chi cago, Burlington Quiney, was taken up for detailed consideration at hearing today before the interstate commerce commission. Representatives of the "Hill" group, including the Northern Pacific, Great Northern s-nd Burlington, were given tne first opportunity to be heard and thru Walker D. Hinas, formerly di rector general of railroads, they im mediately attacked the consolidation plan which would result in a separa tion in their present unified holdings.

Slacker Bergdoll, Lonely in Germany, Falls in Love But Sweetheart Jilts Him After Millionaire Draft Dodger Had Paid 800,000 Marks for a Home, Father of Pretty Emily PfeifFenberger Shows His Hand and Wedding Is Off. New Tork. Nov. 17. G rover Cleve land Bergdoll. millionaire Philadel phia draft dodger, has tried to end the loneliness that envelops him in Eberbach, Germany, by getting mar ried, but his sweetheart turned him down a few days before the date set for the wedding, according to word brought here -today by passengers re turning on the liner President Arthur. Since his flight from the United States in 1920. they said, Bergdoll has virtually led the life of a prisoner in quiet little Eberbach a town of 3,000 inhabitants. He is said to be friendly with the people who live about him and they in turn, accord him certain considerations, largely because of the hundreds of thousands of marks which he has distributed lavishly about him. They are said to regard him, however, more as an American than a German, despite his attitude toward the war, and have difficulty in understanding his rendition of their language.

Mrs. Clara Phillips was saved from the gallows by her smiles. The men members of the jury which found her guilty of second degree murder for beating Mrs. Alberta. Tremaine Meadows to death, with a hammer, were quoted today as admitting that had it not been for the defendant's smile, she probably would have been convicted of first degree murder without a recommendation for clemency, thus making death the nly penally. Thev said Mrs. Phillips seemed to study them, one at a time and to flash frequent smiles. "And she had the most appealing smile I ever saw," was the way one juror was quoted. Women Compromised. But the women jurors were not af fected by it, it was said, as air three fjivored a verdict which would have sent Mrs. Phillips to the gallows, but com nrnmised. While the defense planned to ask a new trial next Monday, the time set for nassiner sentence, which may be any period of years from ten to life. the state counsel saia iney naa no comment to make on the verdict. Mrs. Phillips was quoted as saying: "I. don't know, whether I killed Al berta Meadows or not, but if I did, it wns for mother-love, for Armour E. Phillins. mv husband, is my only baby, and when I realized he was be ing taken lrom me, x iougni, uu fought, so I might have him always." BONUS ASSUREDMAC IVOR Complete Vnofflclal Returns Received From Eighty-Two Counties. "The success of the soldiers' bonus in Kansas is absolutely assured." This is the assertion of Donald HL Maclvor, executive secretary or tho American Legion's state compensation commit tee, in a statement to the Associated Fress here today. 'With complete unofticiil returns from eighty-two counties received at Legion headquarters on the adjusted compensation measure, showing 287, 93 votes for it, we are assured that the proposition will carry over the re quired majority by at least SO. 000 votes, a very conservative estimate," Maclvor declared. "If the ruling shoula be that the measure must have a majority of ail votes cast for the state office receiving the highest number of votes, the bo nus has enough votes now without counting its votes in the remaining twenty-three counties," Maclvor said. "If the ruling should oe that the measure must have a majority of all the votes cast in the election, a figure to be determined by a checK of county clerks showing exaotly the number of ballots issued in each county, the bo nus will yet have sufficient votes be cause we are confident It will have at least 320.000 favorable votes. To lose the bonus on that vote would mean that there must have been at least 640.000 ballots issued. That figure is highly improbable. .State officials es timate the total vote cast for governor, undoubtedly the highest, is about 525.000." Maclvor said tho favorable vote for the bonus ha3 averaged attout 3.500 in each of the eighty-twd counties heard from, including Sedgwick Shawnee. Wyandotte, Reno and other large counties. He predicts a vote of 3.000 for the bonus in each of the re maining twenty-three counties. "This will add approximately 69, 000 votes to the 587, ?3 already re ported, making a total of more than 330.000 for the measure," Maclvor saidf. "This will net the bonus 60.000 votes more than it needs, no matter what the ruling may be in determining its requirement."

It was in Wagen schwend and at the home of the Pfeiffenbergers that Grover Cleveland Bergdoll did his courting. Altho he is 30 years of age and is said to look at least fifteen years older than that, his affair with Emily Pfeiffenberger developed charmingly and rapidly. The date had been set for the wed ding and Bergdoll. having decided to settle down in Eberbach for the rest of his life, bought one of the best houses in town, paying 800,000 marks for it. Everything was ready for the big event when Emily's father suddenly came to the conclusion that the mar riage of his daughter to Bergdoll would not be entirely in keeping with the traditions of the house of Pfeiffen berger. Emily is said to have protest ed, but finally told Bergdoll he would have to look somewhere else for a wife. MUSSOLINI A HERO Appearance Before the Italian Chamber a Great Success.

SOCIALIST LEADER IS SLAIN Great Britain Has Motives for Protecting Sultan. Status Will Be a Subject at the Peace Conference. (By the' Associated Cress.) 1 London. Nov. 17. Hussien Hilmid Bey, president of the Turkish socialist party, has been assassinated in Con stantinople, says an Exchange Tele graph dispatch from that city today. The crime was ascribed to political motives. All attempts by the Kemalists to run the interned Turkish destroyer. Ak hissar, disguised as a, merchantman, out of the Golden Horn, past the allied control, was frustrated last night. Mohammed VI. the Turkish sultan, has fed from Constantinople on a British warship bound for Malta. Upon embarking the sultan empha sized that lie was not abdicating but merely removing himself from imme diate danger. The sultan wrote to Lieutenant Gen eral Harington, the British commander-in-chief, on Wednesday evening, stating he considered his life to be in dangerand would like the British pro tection. The sultan has been greatly exer cised over his status since the action of the Turkish nationalist assembly at Angora early this month voting to de prive him of his civil authority and declaring the caliph or religious head of Islam would hereafter be selected from the imperial house by vote 4t the grand national assembly. In the face of the filtration of na tionalist military elements into Con stantinople and the knowledge that the Angora authorities would event ually be in full control in the Turkish capital the sultan and his advisers have been frankly at sea as to the proper course for him to pursue. At Mercy f Kemalists. The bulk of his guard went over to the nationalists and Constantinople dispatches haVe pictured him virtually at the mercy of the Kemalists should they decide tp make a descent in force on his palace. There have heen ru mors that he had abdicated or was about to do so, but there has been no official confirmation of any such ac tion on his part. There were strong intimations, however, that he would ask the allies for protection if the need arose. Political motives may be read in some quarters into the flight of the sultan on a British, warship. Great Britain concededly has strong motives for seeing that no harm comes to tne caliph, in view of the many millions of Mussulmen subjects within her do main, many of whom have given in dications of disagreement writh the action of the Turkish nationalists, dis puting the power of the Turks alone to take action affecting all Islam. The question of the sultan's status, too, is likely to come up at the Lausanno conference about to open, and it now appears probable that when the ques tion is being debated the caliph him self will be under British protection a refugee at Great Britain's naval base in the Mediterranean. StilU Talking Peace. (By the Associated Press.), Angora, Nov. 17. Addressing the national assembly on the allied post ponement of the Lausanne peace con ference to November 20 Reouf Bey, acting1 minister of foreign affairs, said: "We desire a speedy peace.

MAYOR SCHIERLMAN RESIGNS May Move From Liberty as Result of Whipping by Klan. Independence, Kan.. Nov. 17.

Blaze Follows Explosion in "Hootch'' Distillery. Two Buildings Wrecked Nine Persons Are Injured. Chicago. Nov. 17. Police today worked on the theory that a bomb caused last night's explosion and fire in a moonshine distillery, resulting in the death of three persons and the in jury of at least nine others. The ex plosion occurred in a mixed foreign quarter of the city, -a melting pot for eleven different nationalities. Two buildings were wrecked. In the ruins of one building, which was swept by flames, police and fire men found the wreckage of two stills. The original report of the --firemen was that one of the stills had ex ploded. Later investigation developed the bomb theory. It was learned that former occupants of the building had been slain by bombs and that threats had been made against the lives of families, who, up to last night, had lived in the structure. The ground floor of the building in which the distillery was located was occupied by a grocery store and the '.ivingiquarters of te man who owned it Joseph H. Verdoni, and his family. verdonl is in a hospital suffering from severe burns. His- wife. Paulina, 35, and her 15-months old baby, were burned to death. Firemen found the bodies with the child clasped in its mother s arms. Funics Fed Flames. Steve Bottino. 11, one of the six children of Joseph Bottino, who lived op the second floor, died in a hospital. Immediately after the explosion, flames enveloped the building, trap ping the occupants whose screams were heard for blocks. Fumes from the stills fed the fury of the flames. Firemen reached the scene in a few minutes but hesitated to throw strong streams of water into the building which burned like a furnace, for fear of further endangering the trapped occupants. Donning a gas mask and ordering none but his chauffeur. Charles Bratt, to follow, Frank Braband, battalion fire chief, plunged thru the flames with Bratt at his heels. Firemen, fear ful for their chief, when he failed to reappear in a few minutes were on the point of disobeying his orders by at tempting to follow.

CO. DADS WOULD i CONTROL STATE AID ROAD FUNDS Against State Highway System Under State Department. Refuse to Endorse State High way System Programs. ASK ROAD LAW AMENDMENT Want Auto License Funds Turned Over to Them. County Engineers Differ From Commissioners on Law. A disorganized, piecemeal, haphaz ard agglomeration of mud roads in Kansas suits the majority of the coun ty commissioners of the state better than an articulated state highway sys tem, so long as the county commis sioners can cling to the control ot the "state aid" fund derived from the au tomobile license fee. Kansas may stay in the mud indefi nitely, so far as the commissioners are concerned, if a state highway system built and maintained by the state and controlled by a state highway depart ment is the only remedy for the con djtion. Kanftas may continue to pay her share of taxes into the federal aid road funds and forfeit any participa tion in that federal aid. rather than tb,at the commissioners shall lose their hold on the money of the motorists, they are determined. It is estimated that there is now ac cumulated in the treasuries of the various counties of the state, between $2,000,000 and $8,900,000 of this au tomobile license money which cannot be expended for any purpose under the existing road law, and it will con tinue to accumulate at the rate of about SI, 500, 000 per year. Turn Down State System. The commissioners made their at titude plain at the last session of the Kansas Official Council in Topekt this morning, when they repudiated ail suggestions of a state system, voted to continue to receive federal aid so long as they can control its disposi tion, and declined to approve the plan of the Kansas Automobile Owners' as sociation for a state highway system. They took the action after having had explained to them, painstakingly, the federal road aid law which makes administration of federal road aid 'a necessary function of a state highway department, and not of a county gov ernment. After M. W. Watson, state highway engineer, and E. J. Heckle, secre tary of the Kansas Automobile Own ers' association, had spent the greater part of Thursday telling the commis sioners how the automobile license funds could be used without any ad ditional cost whatever to the payers of personal property taxes, Charley E. Scott, a county commissioner from Rawlins county, got a vociferous round of applause when he declared thnt he "didn't want to go back to hi constituents after having voted for approval of something which would add to the burden of taxation of Ihej already overburdened Kan.as farmer." Want Auto Funds. 'L In a resolution presented by the legislative committee of the County Commissioners association, the com missioners demanded tbe amendment of the present alleged state aid road law so that the "state aid fund" will be wholly at the disposal of the com missioners. The resolution, which was signed by J. H. Burnett, chairman of the com mittee, and William Washburn, its sec. retary, was as follows: "We ecommend the amending ot the state aid road law as follows: All funds now on hand from automobile license fees known as the state aids road fund, be released to the boards of county commissioners in the county where said funds originated, to l spent In building county roads within the county at the discretion of tho board of commissioners. "That all funds derived from the same source In the future be Imme diately placed at the disposal of the county commissioners to be used in the bailding of country roads." Scott, who led the attack on the automobile owners' association and its program declared that before he voted for a resolution approving its objects and purposes, he "wanted to know whether it is a branch of the state highway commission's office." A. A, Rodgers, county commissioner or Shawnee county and a director of tho association, invited Scott to tell the commissioners what the state high, way commission had recently uncov ered in Rawlins county, of which Scott is a commissioner, and assured him that there is no connection between the office of the etate highway com mission and the Kansas Automobile Owners' association. Scoff was appointed a commissioner' following ihe ousting of the -former board of commission rs of Rawlins county as the result of information oa read construction which was uni earthed by the state highway commis sion, and was re-elected at the last election. Responding to Rodgers's Invitation to tell the commissioners what the highway commission had dene for Rawlins county, Scott said, "they have co-operated with us, of course, and we have been greatly benefited bx them." Not Opposed U Commission. "I'm not opposed to the highway commission, but 1 do say that they have too much power, and their pow ers should be delegated to the county commissioners. When they take awuy our right to say where roads shall be built in our counties, they bring about taxation without representation." Scott was not deterred from making the statement by the fact that Wat son had explained to the commission ers that the state highway commis sion has no initiatory powers what ever, and is limited to the authority to approve plans prepared by the county commissioners. "The tax payers' league got busy and forced the investigation which re sulted in the ousting of the Kawlins county commissioners." Scott de clared. He charged that the state (Continued on Page Ten.)

C. C. Asks For Aid tn Movement Of Grain Cars in Kansas. Senator Arthur Capper has ap pealed, to- the interstate commerce commission to aid in the movement of grain cars to Kansas. In a telegram to Judge C. C. McChord of the federal commission the Junior Kansas senator asked that action be talcen imme diately to compel carriers to deliver cars to. western terminals. The appeal of Senator Capper is one of a series which has been made. Statements have been majde thru the Kansas public utilities commission at frequent intervals- concerning their endeavors to aid the farmers. Most of the relief hats seemingly come thru the normal reductions in demands for car. Senator Capper returned to Wash ington Thursday night following a stay of several weeks in Kansas dur ing the general eieouon campaign, it is probable that Jie will not return to the state until March.

Haskin, Director, Washing ton. r. C. As an argument in favor of a ship subsidy It Is pointed out by advocates of the measure that we have paid for eigrt shipping a total of $28,000,000, 004 in the last hundred years for carrying our ocean commerce and in the past seven years we have paid 38,000.000.000. for'the same service. In view of these figures it may seem strange that we still have nearly all the real money In the world and oth erwise are the wealthiest and most prosperous nation on the globe. Why not let well enough alone T The court of appeals of the District of Columbia In declaring unconstitu tional the minimum wage law of the District, voiced the opinion that no greater calamity could befall the wage earners of the country than to uphold the legislative power to fix wages. In terference with fundamental economic laws has been the chief evil of recent years. Prices have been fixed, wages raised or reduced on government- coat rolled private properties, and tn other ways the law of supply and de n:and has been set aside. The error of such a course has been abundantly demonstrated, but a strong fight for lis continuance still is being made. A labor shortage in Illinois is re ported. This should not be surprising, .owing to the fact that men have been killed for going to Illinois to work. It is he declared judgment of the Protective Tariff league that the ad ministration reverse at the polls this j month was due to a failure to make the tariff rates high enough. This at- s titufle of the league leads the New Tors: Times to remark; "When the end of the world comes and the ele ments melt with fervent heat, they win be ready to snatch Gabriel's trum pet away from him and proclaim to affrighted mankind that all this might have been prevented if the tariff on wool had been made 5 per cent higher." The British government has made another payment of S50.000.000 Inter est n its debt to' the United States. The sum practically completes the amount due this fall, and attests anew the, resolution of the British govern ment to liquidate its obligations. The money comes in handy since TJncie Sam' has soma big bills to meet In the next two months. MONOPOLIES. "It is clear that the American Tele phone and Telegraph company ac knowledges ownership of substantial ly two-thirds of all the telephone in terests In the country and this rapid pace toward a complete telephone monopoly is a threat to the public which will impose a burden of hun dreds of millions of dollars upon tele phone usersv both local and long dis tance," declared Chairman Clyde M. IJeed of the Kansas public utilities commission In an address before the national convention of" railway and utilities commissioners'. This is a statement That should com mand the attention not only of public officials and legislators but of every citiaen of Kansas. Some years ago government gave practical recognition to the fact that there existed both good and bad trusts. So there may exist both good and bad monopolies. A monopoly which uses Its control of an industry to reduce costs of pro duction and gives the public the ben efit of such reduction deserves to be classed as a good monopoly. But a monopoly which uses Its power to re duce costs of production and at the same time Increases costs to the con sumer is a bad monopoly and should be dealt with in a way that would protect the public from oppression, tn the view of Chairman Reed the Bell company is such a monopoly. Mr. Reed's commission was estab lished, for the purpose of protecting the, public against bad monopolies. It seems to be unable to function in this direction. It appears, therefore, to be up to the incoming legislature to take other steps toward affording protec tion to the people against extortion. Electric energy produced during September amounted to 135,200,000 kilowatt hours a day. It was a. high record, exceeding a previous record set during August. Fart of the increase Is accounted for by a change from steam power, but more of it is proba bly due to a greater demand for power from the growing Industrial activity. THE BCLXj MOOSE PROGRAM. A Washington dispatch carries the announcement that the Bull Moose are preparing to go on another rampage similar to that of 1912. It Is said that i e i they are planning to prevent ie ip nomination of President Harding. Thev may succeed. If they fail it seems unlikely that they will repeat the mistake of ten years ago. The price of being kept away from the public crib eight years is too large to pay even in the upholding of a great principle. It Is indicated that Sena tor Borah will be the Roosevelt of the revival. Similar upheavals in the Republi can partyhave kept the Democrat party alive ever since the close of the Civil war. They began away back in the late sixties with the Liberal Re publican movement. This was fol lowed by the "Grange" movement, the Greenback" movement, the "Popu list" movement, the 'Tree Silver" movement, and the "Progressive movement. Each of these movements resulted ultimately in carrying over into the Democrat party a large contingent of former Republicans, always including some of the ablest leaders. Among the latter might be mentioned Charles Sumner. Lyman Trumbull, Horace Greeley, Henry M. Teller, and, here in Kansas, David Overmyer, who came to the state a Republican A marked difference between the two great parties lies in the fact that while Democrats in droves may go over to the opposition, as in 1920, their leaders always stick and await the turn of events. Republican leaders bolt as 'did Teller, when he marched out of the St. Louis convention at the head of his followers, over into the Democrat camp. So, if the Bull Moose control the next national Republican convention and defeat Harding, probably there will be an exodus of oldtlme leaders. They cannot stand for a program which calls for: Repeal or drastic modification of the tsfh-Cumraina railroad act. Legislation to curb tne use of lni Junctions In labor disputes. Re-enactment or tne excess proms tax and higher rates on big lncom??. Curbing the powers of the federal reserve board Revision of the new Republican tariff act. Recoe-nition of soviet Russia and re establishment of trade relations jw" ith her. Amnesty for political prisoners con victed of wartime offenses. "Business is betterthan it ever has been," declares the president of the Ford Motor company. His concern Is about to Increase production from S.000 to 6,000 cars dally. The demand for Ford cars Is probably as accurate a barometer of prosperity as can be found, and indicates that all classes of the people, including the farmers, are buying. A BLOW TO THE SUBSIDY. It may be that President Harding will ntinue to insist that congress pass a ship subsidy bill when it meets In extra session next 'week but, the chances oC its enactment, poor at any time, can hardly fail to have been greatly depreciated by the results of the recent election. Unless congress feel inclined to Ig nore the voice of the people it will fight shy of the subsidy thing. But whether It do so or not the opposition to the measure is likely to be in creased by the addition of members who have been secretly against it all the time but had not the courage to run counter to an administration policy. Such will now feel encouraged to come out Into the open. What probably is the general trend of those in and out of congress is set forth by the Omaha Bee in an-editor ial article as follows: Congress, called to assemble next Monday, will meet wltn the echoes of last Tuesday still ringing; in its ears. It la hardly possible to misinterpret that message. Whether it contains any intimation as to the program the people would like to see carried out, it leaves no room for argument as to what is not wanted. And this touches on the program that was under con sideration when the recess was taken in September. i Tne mercnant marine bill, which Is to be taken up at once by the house, is popularly known as the ship sub sidy bill. This measure was included in the general criticism leveled against the present congress, and can not eas ily be separated from tne adverse ver dict. Therefore it wirt surprise no body If the subsidy feature of the bill s set aside, not abruptly, but with Such perfunctory attention as will prove that congress can read signs as plain as those loft by the election. Americans are interested in thetr- mer chant marme.but it is difficultlto con vince a midwest farmer that the federal treasury should be open to a ship owner mora widely than it has been to a tool producer. Forty millions must be collected in new taxes to repay treasury errors on only adjusted accounts. Many times forty millions are -undisclosed in tax collections in arrears, which may reach S500.000.000, according to the New Tork Journal of Commerce. All such treasury difficulties could be avoided in the future by the simple process of levying a reasonable Income tax and supplementing It with a sales tax.

"Advanced" persons of both sexes and all ages freely discuss her. even at dinner tables, altho some times she is camouflaged under Freu dian terms. It Is not the vogue to pity her, much less to blame. So there is -opical timeliness in the return of this vivid incident from the life of Jesus for the study of the millions of Sunday school members. We get the mind of the Master upon one of the livest Issues of our day. First, let us read the story Itself, a masterpiece of literature "And one of the Pharisees desired film ihnt hk would eat with him. And he entered into the Pharisee's house, and eat down to meat. And behold, a womai- who was in the city, a sinner: and when she knew that he vfi ittinir at meat in the Pharisee's house, she brou&ht an alabaster crusef of ointment. t.nd standing oeninu ui his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, ana wipeu them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. Now when the Tr.T-is that had bidden him saw it. he spake within himself, saying. This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, thpt ha is a sinner. And Jesus an swering said unto him, Simon,-1 have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith. Teacher, say on- A certain lender had two debtors: the one owed five hundred shillings, and the other fifty. When they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave them both. Which of'them therefore will love him most! Simon answered and said. He, I sup pose, to whom he forgave the most. And he said unto him. Thou hast righUv judged. And turning to tho woman, he said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, thou g-vest mo no water for my feet: but she hath wetted my feet with her tears, and wiped them with hex, hair. Thou gavest me no kiss: But she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet. My head with arl thou didst not anoint: but she hath anointed my feet with ointment. Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are for given; for. she loved mucn: dui to whom little is" forgiven, the same loveth little. And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. And they that sat at meat witn Htm oegan to say within themselves. Who is this that even forgiveth sins? And ho said unto the woman. Thy faith nam savea thee; go in peace." Maudlin and Muddy Minds. To contrast that exouisite gem of literarv nortrayal with the pages lit erally pages of slush that dominate today's papers, concerning the acquit tal of a confessed murderess, and the ovation given her by hysterical crowds: and concerning two other cardial crimes in which the sex mo tive) was dominant, i to perceive the difference between tho standards of Jesus and those of today. Clearly cur 'minds are both muddy and maualin upon this matter of the Seventh Com mandment. Nobody would dream of making the. poor sinner who bathed tho Saviour's feet with tears and less pre cious ointment, the heroine of Dr. Luke's story. She excites compassion. not admiration or emulation. There is no doubt about her status. She Is a penitent sinner, who is so overcome by tne Duroen or ner sins mat sno seeks comfort from the compassion ate Christ. Slack-brained writers commonly confuse two things: tho fact that Jesus forgave the sinner, and the fact of His attitude toward sin. Because the Master pcrdoned the penitent there has grown up the unwarranted idea, that she herself was blameless and that it is wrong to condemn her kind. Tons of rubbish have been written bv sentimentalists, or erotic- minded sensualists, in sheer praise of the fallen woman; as If her sin were virtue. Into the -discard has gone, of late, the Bible's clear teaching concerning this form of immorality which eats like a canker Into the Integrity of the home and of the entire social fabric. Franklv, among myriads of persons in the English-speaking world teday, violations of the Seventh Command ment are not considered a cardinal offense against the laws of God and man. The accrued and inherited teachings of the ages on this subject !e forgotten. Few know or care that in the ancient East; with Its stored-up wisdom, adultery is" still punished by death. Chastitya not now unanimously regarded aa the priceless jewel of the character of man and woman. v What'the Bible calls "sin" is today eupfiemistically called "self-expression," or "experi ence." A Woman's Supreme Tragedy. Clear thinking and honest reading of the Bible leaves no doubt about the one inexorable standard by which ffl-e social sin is to be judged, in both man and woman. The man who transgresses the Seventh Command ment is a fallen man; the woman who transgresses the Seventh Com mandment is a fallen woman. An enervated and debauched society may wink at these offenses for a time, but the judgment of history and human experience stands clear and unmis takable. In the picture of this woman who had been driven to invade the feast in Simon's house, so great was her burden of sorrow and sin, we get a glimpse of the soul of one undergoing the supreme tragedy. Men might smile and lee.- as she passed, and she could exchange flippant remarks with them, but in heV own soul which was the only realm where happiness or unhappiness really matters she suffered such agonies as pen has never depicted. Her daily draught was the gall of bitterness; her daily food the ash. of remorse. Dr. Luke, probably an eye-witness, has stripped all allurement from the figure of this poor outcast, as he depicts her in the manifestation of sorrow beyond words. There should be a warning for many a tempted girl in this portrayal of the shame and suffering that lie at the end of the road of sacial sin ning This woman found forgiveness: I out -sioc even jesus couia repair tne wreckage of her past. Her soul was saved, but scarred. Little boots it to dwell Dion the censorious self-complacencyNt Simon the Pharisee, whose sin of pride and censoriousness was doubtless greater- than the woman's -impulsive sins or the flesh. ?or yet does it alter the case to recall the men who were equally guilty with the woman, and who are not reported as showing re pentance and finding forgiveness. At the moment, we are only concerned with the sinner and the sin, who fig ure as the central characters in this story. As Jesus Looked at It. We shall never "see life clearly and see it .whole"; until, as did Jesus, we face the reality of sin as a force in life far more important and pear than es-olution or environment or heredity. Alone among the great religions of the earth, Christianity squareiy recog nianss sin. Other philosophers, old and new, either get around sin by calling it bv other i:ames, or else they ignore it altogether. With Jesus it was primary reality. He was given at birth th name Jesus, "because he- shall save his people from their sins." He came to be a Saviour. That was His primary mission. He expressed the love of God In the breaking of the power of sin over human -life, and in granting forgiveness for It. Ln a way that we cannot understand, tho we ac cept it, he somehev made atonement fnr trie sin or tne woria. Jesus forgave the sinner. That was lust tfke Him. But Jesus never winked .at sin. That also was Just l-kanim. He deeii-ed sin eo heinous that he declared that an offending eye should be plucked out, an offending hand cut off. The moral-mistiness of vision which pervades contemporary litera ture and life, diminishing the sanctity of virtue and the sinfulness or sin. never touched Him. How abhorrent sin is to a holy God Is made plain by the cross. How great is the love of God is shown by the fact that Jesus forgave the penitent woman, who in lavishness of love and desire and re pentance, had thrown herself at his feet. Jesus was the antithesis of the gen erality of men, who look upon sin as a little thing, and who regard the known sinner with outward contempt. Christy receiv.s sinners, but be hates sin.

It takes a. pretty poor flesh and blood Lizzie, however, not to be worth more than a Tin Lizzie, and, aside from any sentiment in the matter, one is inclined to think that a. wife is a more valuable asset, by and large, than a motor car, even, with the extra tire thrown in. A wife can help a man make and save money. An automobile eats it up. No wife, even tho she had as many feet as a centipede, and an un restrained passion for fancy footgear; would cost as much) tn shoes in the course of a year, as even a flivver does. And she might be fed am nightingale's tongues, and drink prohibition booze at the price of the gasoline that a car laps up. A wife can cook, and clean, and patch, and mend, and darn and keep the home fires burning. The mission of the automobile is. to put a mort gage on the vine-wreathed cottage. A wife can be a comfort, and stay, and prop to her husband. An auto mobile gets him a summons to court for speeding. The price of a good wife Is above rubies. The price of an automobile is always a little more than you can afford. Furthermore,, while it is true that matrimony is no Joy ride thru life, it breaks fewer bones than an automobile does. Nevertheless, many, men prefer an automobile to a wife, and remain sin gle in order that they may have the pleasure of indulging themselves in the latest sports model of a car with all the accessories pertaining thereto, that enable a man to speed away from domesticity instead of heading into it. Wives or cars, it is a matter of taste which a man prefers. What do you think, Mr. Husband? How much is your wife worth to you? Of course, when we think of the value of a wife, we instantly measure her worth in terms of sentiment.

(Front Philadelphia Pmblie Lsdgtr.) The Lowdown on "Buckfoot." In Kansas, the other day. they elected a rugged man of the people governor His nam a is Jonathan M. Davis, but everybody calls him'Buckfoot" Davis and that is the story. The election of "Buckfoot" was not anticipated, -ft is entirely probable tnat thJS bene fieiarv of a nonular revolt had no more than the faintest inkling of -his destiny. He had tried before and had been beaten. His path to glory has been beset by many reverses. The cards seemed to be stacked against him. His opponent -wafs prominent and w"ell liked a gentleman and scholar, a university man who had been successful financially, who had served his Mate with distinctionh minor capacities, and who enjoyed as wide a, personal acquaintance as any man in his state. But .for once the plain people the- coal miners, the striking shop crafts, the working men who were not striking, the Ku Klux Klan and the embattled farmers got together. t And they got together be hind "Buckfoot." And so the gentle man whose popular cognomen was, by common consent, conferred upon a gang of foot race swindlers becomes governor of a great etate. "Tenterday the" news, duly consider ing the Hon. Huckfoot" in his new capacity, carried the first public ut terance accredited to liim since the election. It is illuminating If you chance to know the Hon. "Buckfoot." "The state," he is reported to' have Maid, "needs officers who will arrest the wealthy man -as quickly as the poor man, and then the public will respect officers of the law and the laws win De opeyea. in a large, gen eral way the Hon. "Buckfoot" is against the Great Red Dragon of Wall street, hydra-headed capitalism ana the interests. He Is inimical to preda tory wealth.- That is his greater and impersonal reaction to life. His pure ly personal grievance is against the law and the courts. He feels, and has reason for so feeling, that too many fat rascals 6lip thru the meshes made and provided. He wants to see more of them arrested, and he wants the courts to see to it that they are convicted. Bronson is a straggling Kansas vil lage with a population approximating 300 souls. It gets a date line in tne newspapers when the Hon. "Buck- foot" Davis runs for or is elected to office. For the Hon. "Buckfoot's" farm home, three miles distant, it is tho nearest point of world contact. Ill other seasons it is static and undis turbed ty the recurring waves of events. One summer afternoon, now twenty-five years ago, a lithe-limbed youth, accompanied ty one described in tho patois of the community as a wise-looking gazimbo, blew into Bron son. Since strangers tarried infre quently in Bronson, that they came at all was an interesting incident, that they had elected to remain indefinite ly an event. They mace no effort to conceal their identity or their pur pose. Within an hour It was known that the lithe-limbed youth was "Bud" Gillette, famous foot racer, and that the wise looking gazlmno was Yiia manager. Important races impended. They sought a quiet spot where "Bud" might do his training in comparative seclusion. Bronson impressed them as such a spot; it fitted their scenario. Tbat waa all there was to it. Bronson warmed to the new-com ers. By Saturday night they were on friendly and intimate terms with ev erybody in the community, including Buckfoot Jonathan Davis, who had come in from the farm to da his Sat urday trading. Truth to tell.Vjillette's manager seemed more impressed by Buckfoot than any otrrer man he had met in Bronson, and frankly said so. The intimacy flowered and rip ened In a day. Gillette showed, in his trial bursts of speed, that he was all hia manager claimed for him. In competition with him tho wind was a selling plater, chained lighting a plow horse. But, as the wise gazimbo later imparted to his friend s "Buckfoot," there was one little difficulty: They had no money. A community in tho adjacent state of Missouri was ripe for the picking. Suckers padded with long green awaited the formality of the harvest. Would Buckroot" in vestigate the proposition, and. It it appeared safe, finance the expedition? The latter agreed to look it overand, with the foot racer and his manager, departed for the soft spot. The Bronson bank groaned a little, but it stood for "Buckfoot's sight draft for J5.000. It was unusual, of course, but "Bucfcfoot" was known as a shrewd investor. To "Buckfoot" himself it presented the aspect not of an in vestment, but of a lead-pipe cinch. He had clocked them both and Gillette was a full two seconds faster than the home town champion, on whom the Missourians were pinning thier money. And so the race was matched and run. As a preliminary "Buck foot" put his $5,000 In a sack along with the Jo, 000 raised and wagered by the enthusiastic yokels who were betting against Gillette. All went well until the sprinters were within twenty yards of the tape.. Gillette, unextend ed, was loading by five yards. And then he stumbled and fell and the Missourian passed over his prostrate form to victory. Almost Immediately thereafter Gillette's manager hurried "Buckfoot" out of town. The Mis sourians, apparently, were getting ready to mob Gillette's Kansas backer. They claimed the purse was short. There are those who claim "Buck fodt" was not a good sport, but It is probable those who so characterized his never owed the bank $5,000 for what may, perhaps, be most aptly da scribed as "dead horse." At any rate, he went into the courts tn an attempt to recover his money. But the law laughed him out of them a poorer and sadder man. As a delicate compli ment to the new Kansas governor, the fakers Who trimmed rum were known thereafter in the public prints as the "Buckfoot" gang. They operated ex tensively and pouched away much coin. A number of them subsequently were sent to the penitentiary but not for trimming "Buckfoot."

Then they drove off, a- look of pity flashing in Claire's eyes as she said goodbye. SH she too think Helen Ralstrom would take Walter from me? I watched from the window until Walter came In. They had been ahead of us all the way, Walter driving faster than George. He always drove as fast as he could without being ar rested. He loved the swift motion.

On our way home he tucked my hand into his arm, talked of what we should do when the warm weather came on, where we would go. He had, as usual, forgotten his piques as soon as something else interested him, and after we reached home, late as it was, got out his maps and planned a, little automobile trip for later in the summer.

The mere hoarding and piling of money is getting to be less and less at tractive. It is far better to leave a boy an honest name and an understandable formula for work, than any possible sized fortune. An Inherited character Is the richest thing a boy could receive. And this is developed best in a 'homo where all tho ennobling Influences of life are born. Yes. go into debt for a home. And keep up your life insurance policy, even tho you have to sacrifice greatiy to do so. These two are( the greatest agencies that breed success and happiness. A real man must learn the great art of "rubbing shoulders" with other men, of finding in them something at tractive and uplifting, as well as be coming needful and necessary to them. But only as he is secured in his own mind by a background of preparation is ho able to tread with sound and sure step. Have a home get your life insured!

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 17, 1922 COLORADO AT K. IT. Second Interactional Game of Season for Kansas Jayhawkers. Westerners 3Iay Surprise Teem That Held Down the Army, v (By the Associated Press.) Uwrcnce. Kan Nov. 17. The Unl versity of Kansas football team will figure in its second inter-sf ctional clash of the season tomorrow when it meets the University of Colorado eleven on he K, LT. stadium pridiron. Kansas played the Army at West Point early in the season. The name tomorrow will be the sec ond meeting of Miswiuri v- Ilev con ference team with a representative of the Rocky Mountain conference, this season. Drake university defeated the aloines. last Saturdav. On paper the University of Kansas eleven should triumph tomorrow by a comfortable margin over the Boulder eareiration. but Kansas foueht a hard battle atrainst Nebraska's Husker crew last week-end and the Jayhawkers are experiencing a slackening up in their pace this week that may extend over the battle tomorrow and pive the vis itors an advantage that will turn the uae westward. Colorado has not had as strong a team this season as usua.1 and lost last Saturday to Colorado college at Colo rado Springs, 15 to 3. The western team is composed largely of new ma trial. Hopper, a former Kansas Aer Rie player, is on of Colorado's star bwckfilders. Kansas and Colorado have met on the ribboned rectangle four times in the past, the games coming in the ,yer 1S03 to 19'6. inclusive. In these four battles Kansas won twice, Colorado once and one was a tie. Kansas eoes into tomorrow's frav fh fairly good shape and with practically ail or the regular in trim. It is ex pocted the Jayhawkers will try hard for a decisive victory, for the Kansas record thus far this season shows only one conference victory, that or Oklahoma, and on" win over Wash burn of Topeka, a riTenlter of the Kan sas conference. Two other valley con ference game have been lost to Urn ko and Nebraska while the en counter with the Kansas Aggies ended in a tic.

AfcGIES TO HUSKEBUND Speculation as to Outcome of Battle Saturday Is IHvklcU. Manhattan, Kan., Xov. 17. What chances the Kansas Aggies, have lor giving the mighty Cornhuskers a worthy battle at Lincoln next Satur day is a subject of considerable speculation here. There are those who believe the Aggies will lose by 30 points and then there are a few who belieVe that the Wildcats will hold Nebraska to a close score even beat the apparent valley champions if the breaks are right. With a perfected forward pass, the Aggies have a good chance of scoring on their much heavier and more ex perienced rivals, local critics assert. A special train carrying between 500 and 1.000 Aggie supporters, the enUre freshman team and the 90 piece Aggie band will leave Manhat tan early Saturday morning. The Ag" f ie team entrained Thursday and ar rived in Lincoln this morning. Head Coach Bachman's charges spent the week In Manhattan in rest and devotion to the principles of the game. A muddy field made real scrimmage impossible. Coach Bachman has announced that the heavy Aggie backfietd probably will be used against Nebraska. That means Brandley. who played a bril liant kicking game against Ames here last Saturd.-fy, will replace Burton, star midget halfback. Xo other changes in the lineup are contem plated. Bachman announced. Football Track Meet. The first track meet of the high school gridiron to come to notice ia the tame between Clay Center and Concordia. Thursday afternoon, on the Clay Center field.

Too much meat may form uric acid, I. which excites the kidneys; thty be ;ome overworked; get sluggish, ache -and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri gated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the flight- When the kidneys cleg you roust help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kidney region; you uffer from backache, sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour, tongue "ccated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. J. Drink lots of water; also get from -any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few jsya and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon ?uice, combined with lith!a, and has been used for generations to clean clogged .kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to help neutralize the ncids in urine, so it no lonsier is a i source of irritation, thus often ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in- Jure; makes a delightful effervescent ithia water drink which everyone should take now and then to help l.eep the kidneys clean and active.

"The object of cancer week, which ;i being: observed all over the nation this week. 1b not to spread alarm, but to bring: hope." declared Dr. Karle O. Brown, city health officer, and one of the men in Topeka who is sponsoring ."."on' cancer week in Topeka. '.Experience demonstrates that can cer does not begin as a cancer,' that at first it Is always something- else a lump, a wart, a mole, an ulcer, a bruise, a burn, that in itself is harm less. Tha purpose of th. campaign is to cause the public to take notice of something- that may develop into a cancer. If they are neglected they rf, dana-trous," says Dr. Brown. 'J ust why and how a cancer starts, one knows, accurately. It spreads from Its beginning- and destroys healthy tissue as it goes. It sends forth living cancer cells by way of the blood or lymph streams which start other cancers in other parts of the body. In tha early stages there are plenty of chances for cure, but if 'the case ia fully developed there Is less chance. There are still chances for cure after the ulcer, or lump or wart or mole have become cancers. Cut before they have spread." Xational cancer week In Topeka Is being- endorsed by the Shawnee County Medical society. A film. "Tha Reward of Courage." is to be shown at the Orpheum theater Sunday afternoon. This film is a running story which teaches a lesson in the prevention of cancer. Dr. S, T. Millard will make a short talk Sunday afternoon at the Orpheum theater, on the subject., "Vital Facts About Cancer." The show will start at 2:30 o'clock. SLAI.X GUARD- IS BURIED.

Nov. 17. Tax-evading bootleggers, who have amaszed wealth Belling illicit booze, are being rounded "P one of the most persistent drives ever begun by the Internal Revenue bureau. The government la shy many millions of dollars In revenue because bootleggers have failed to make re turns showing their income. A new system devised by the bureau has put the government on the tracks of tax dodgers of this class. The "Big Kours" and other similarly designated cliques that have a monopoly on the booze supply and distribution In the larger cities, are being caught rapidly thru information supplied by prohibi tion agents. Officials la IUug. In one large city discovery was made that the chief of police, city councilmen and other dignitaries were active members of the bootlegger combination. Examination of their bank accounts disclosed fabulous sums accumulated suddenly from liquor profits. Investigation shows that in practically every case these taxpayers railed to account for their income from liquor sources. Records seized by prohibition agents an over tne country nave lea to sen sational disclosures involving high of ficials. They are actively participat ing In the profits on big deals. In many cities, prohibition officials de clared, local officials count upon a certain stipulated rake off on all liquor transactions. Loses Bi fortune. One of the so-called kings of boot leggers, who made a phenomenal rise as a financier, has been discovered with a possible indebtedness to the irovernment so large that almost his entire fortune may be wiped out if the government collects all of the penal ties and taxes assessed against him. In this case his liability has been mul tiplied many times thru the past two years by failure to report his true income, for falsifying his tax state ment, and withholding taxes on liquor made and sold. In its pwrsuit of the tax evaders in bootleg ranks the Internal Revenue bureau is Flapping on the maximum penalties. These are very severe. -Ol'R MESSENGER" EDITOR DEAD Mrs. Alloc Young. 7S.

We get but ten pounds from a bushel. But the oats are cut before flak ing'. They are rolled very thin and partly cooked. So the flakes are smaller and thinner that is all. And the small thin flakes cook quickly. Your grocer has both styles. If you want the Quick Quaker look for "Quick" on the label. You will get the quickest cooking oats in the world. i TO DARKEN HAIR APPLY SAGE TEA Loci; Young! Bring Back Its Natural Color, Gloss and Attractiveness. Common garden sape brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn pniy. streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just iv few applications will prove a reve lation if your hair is fading, streaked or may. Mixing the f-"age Tea and Kulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is-'to get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other in gredients. While wispy, pray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our joiuhful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyoth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time: by morn ing all gray hairs .have disappeared, and. after another application or two, vour hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.

France's kighest court of appeal has cleared of stain the memory of Lucien Bersoti It has granted 5,000 f ranees to his widow and 15.000 francs to his minor female child. Who was Lucien Bersot? Just a poiiu. Not a hero. A victim, according to l'Humanite, which re counts his story of tne pitless ma chinery of war. Early in 1915 Bersot. according to l'Humanite. asked the supply-sergeant of his regiment to get him some new red pants. He asked sev eral times for the pants, perhaps im patiently. At the end of a long period the sorgeant sent Bersot the pants. They had been taken from a dead soldier. They were filthy and stiff with dried blood. Bersot went to the sergeant and protested. During an argument which followed a lieutenant entered and reprimanded Bersot for arguing with a non-commissioned officer. When Bersot opened his mouth to protest the lieutenant ordered him to be quiet an-' to put on the pants. When Bersot shudderingly refused the lieutenant had him sent to the guardhouse for eight days. Friends of Bersot protested, and, the affair got to" the ears of the colonel of the regiment. The colo nel was indignant at the protesters. Ho. determined to make an example of Bersot and summoned a court martial. Bersot was charged with "refusal to obey in the presence of the enemy." He was condemned to deatn Feb ruary 12, 1915, and shot the follow ing day. COUNTY DADS WOULD fContlnned from Tape One.) highway commission "does play poll tics and asserted that a letter writ ten to Rawlins county men by Watson, chief engineer for the commission, had been used against him in the last elec tion. R. V. Brokaw. president of the county -"commissioners' association, went to bat in defense of the state highway commission and told the commissioners that they are "blaming the state highway commission for en forcing the laws when they should be rawhiding the legislature which passed the laws." "The trouble isn't with the state higfhway commission or the county engineers, it is with these infernal contractors who are going around over the country, misleading the county commissioners and the people," Rod gers said. And the commissioners amended the original meaning of a resolution which declared that on account of the increasing and continuous use' and need of motorvehicles on Kansas roads for agricultural purposes, they -would favor tlta-p'.acing ot the state in a po sition to continue the cooperation with the federal government in road con struction, and a state system of high ways. They took the state highway system out of the resolution, and rec ommended that the county govern ments cooperate in federal aid. ignor ing the pointed statement of the chief engineer of design of the federal bu reau of public roads that this could not be done. So eager were they to make plain their position on the control of the automobile license fund that they added to this resolution a clause de manding that the automobile license funds be turned over to them. Another highly ambiguous resolu tion complimented the state highway commission on its "broad minded and liberal application of the spirit of the federal aidroad laws," and ended- w.th the recommendation that the "state highway commission be kept out of politics." Hostile to Highway Commission. The hostility of the majority of the commissioners to any state activity rn road building or maintenance, and to the state highway commission, was obvious thruout the session this morn ing as veil as their determination to cava aole control of the '.'state aid THE FINANCIAL SOT license Tees. efe The commissioners also recom mended to the state legislature a backward step in the administration of the mothers' pension law of the state. The law was amended at the last session of the legislature to make the grantinjr of pensions to indigent mothers by county commissioners compulsory. The commissioners' leg islative committee this morning pre sented a resolution, which was passed. I recommending the granting to the county commissioners power to decide whether or not they would grant the pensions. County Engineers Differed. The county engineers differed wide ly from the county commissioners In the tenor of the resolution which they passed. The county engineers endorsed the state highway system in the follow ing resolution: "Whereas: The County Engineers association of the state of Kansas, realizes that under the present laws we will never be able to have a con nected system of highways in this state: and, "Whereas: the County Engineers as sociation fully realizes that a con nected system of state highways is of vital importance to the progress and prosperity of the state, "Therefore, be it resolved by the county engineers that they heartily endorse a state system of highways, to be built and maintained by the state and to be paid for out of revenue col lected from motor vehicles." The county engineers also endorsed the organization, purposes, and plan of the Kansas Automobile Owners as sociation, which was not done by the commissioners, and when the same resolution was presented to them which the county commissioners amended to the effect that the state should place itself in position to con tinue the participation-'in the federal road aid they passed it without amendment. FOUR MEN ROB A GARAGE Bind Night Man, Take Three Cars and Fifty Tires and Escape. Winficld. Kan.. Nov. 17.

Dr. Brnner Finds Own "Wife Dead and Baity Injured. Mrs. Benjamin Bruner, wife of Dr. Benjamin Bruner, and Mrs. Noah Tabaka, wife of Noah Takaba, of the Stewart Hardware company, both ot Wamegb, were instantly killed Thurs day afternoon when the Ford coupe in which they were riding was struck by Union Pacific passenger train No. 104 aboat one and one-fourth miles vest of Belvue. Doctor Bruner's 3-year-ola daughter. Ruth, who was also in the car, 1 escaped with only minor injuries. Doctor Bruner had received a call to St. Marys and determined to take the passenger train from Wamego, for the sake of greater speed. Mrs. Ta baka took Mrs. Bruner and the child in ,her Ford coupe, leaving ahead of the train, intending to pick Doctor Bruner up in St. Marys and bring him back to Wamego when he should have completed his professional call. Engine Stalled on Railroad Track. A mile and a quarter west of Bel vue the road crosses the track three times in a short distance and the Ford was making the third crossing when the engine evidently stalled on the track and the Ford was struck by the train. The train was stopped. When a call was made among the passen gers for a physician. Doctor Bruner responded, to find his own wife lying dead in the road, and his baby, dazed, but not seriously injured, amid the wreckage of the Ford coupe. It was -stated this morning that the state highway commission had some time ago ordered two of the three crossings eliminated, but the work had not yet been accomplished. The crossing where the accident occurred is said not to be a blind one, and it is thought that the stalling of the en gine was responsible for the tragedy. The skulls of both women were crushed. The bodies were taken to Wamego. Doctor Bruner is one of the best known physicians in that sec tion of the country and has practiced there for approximately ten years. WEIGHS NEARLY 500 POUXDS.

Advance notices have become 'more or less of a questionable agency in so far as concrete tacts are concerned because of an overdose of superlatives, wherewith they are afflicted. In the case of Cosi Fan Tutte, Mo zart's comic opera, the reverse is true in that there is more 'merit in the performance than "was claimed by its promoters. Cosi Fan Tutte is a mdfeterpiece. It is an outstanding accomplishment. Its libretto is clever in its dealings- with some of the t elusive characteristics of men and women. In the selecting of his characters. Mr. William Wade Hinshaw displayed excellent judgment. He seems to have assigned parts to people who are nat urally fitted for them. The actresses and actors are not only skilled artists but they are re-fined'und- pleasing in manner and ap pearance. In my judgment, the cast is excellently balanced. Miss Irene Williams, Leonora, is a beautiful girl and she can sing well. Her daintiness is captivating. Her costume was a delight. So tenaciously did she cling to her first love that she temporarily almost convinced us that she would remain constant to the end. Finally, "however, she fell victim to her ardent "stranger" Jover. Phiiine Falco, Dorabella, is mighty clever. She sings and acts convinc ingly and oh, joy! those eyes! They talk and laugh and twinkle. When she'sets out to persuade her sister to put aside her soldier lover and have a little "innocent" fun with the Al banian, Miss Falco's face is a living reflection of .all kinds of delicious devilment. Miss Lillian Palmer, the maid. Des pina, is a. witty, jolly, attractive, little artist. She is pretty and if all of the doctors in the world were as good to look at as she was last night, the ma jority of their patients would be men. As maid, her gay, carefree song and laughter was a tonic. She reminds one of fresh, smiling, wild flowers in early morning and the almost uncanny rhythm in her song, chatter and light, tripping movements is lace-like. Mr. Pierre Remington, Don Al phonso, poi trays the part of the cyn ical old bachelor and the "disinter ested go-between" in good form. The way in which he manages to win his bet is good. Leo de Hierapblis, Don Guglielmo, is a good comedian. He conveyed convincingly, the idea that he felt ex ceedingly miserable after taking the poison and he seemed to personally get a lot of enjoyment out of it, creating mirth in abundance for his audience, especially when he seemed embarrassed by Dorabella's aggressive flirtations. Mr. Judson House, Don Ferrando, contributed" all of his share to the eve ning's enjoyment. He has a fine, thoroly trained tenor voice. His acting was a delight. As the Albanian noble man, he is an irresistible lover, he begs, serenades, teases and flatters with adorable finesse. Mr. Stuart Ross; at the piano, played so well the Mozart music of mys terious beauty, that at times he vied for supremacy with the other artists. His touch and rhthmic precision is pure delight to qne's musical palate and his manner pt playing those pearly, velvety, rippling runs with the dynamic cunning of the true Mo zart style, did as much for me as does a sun bath for a plant. The costumes were a display of un Newest stylish models, Raglan shoulders, belts around, patch pockets, in k variety v of favored shades of popular fabrics. $15.00 Just arrived W. LT.

They carried-one back to the time of Mozart and gave a picture of a beautiful home of that time. If the observations I have made here may serve to prompt any person or persons to attend this evening's performance of Cosi. Fan Tutte it will be to them,rather than to the man agement, that I render a service. I heartily congratulate Mr. Hooper and his 'associates with the excellence of their discrimination in selecting thjs masterpiece for their thousands of To peka patrons. DANIEL MCTXEB.

Rain started falling: early this morning to hamper the work of the five football teams to play this after noon In the Kansas conference 1822 race. In the contests today. Hays Normal meets College of Emporia at Emporia. Ottawa will play host to Pittsburg Normal, Fairmount and Sterling tangle on the Wichita gridiron. Baker goes to Sallna to engage the Kansas Wesleyan university in combat, and Bethel will play Friends in Newton. Of the Hve contests the first three should be the most Interesting. Hays and C. of E. meet for the first time for several years. Hays Normal was the champion of the conference last year, but is out of the running for the title this season. C of E. has lost but one game, and that to Sterling, alleged to be one of the weakest teams In the conference. It is true that Replogle, full, and Grant, half, were out of the game the day Sterling defeatecT the Emporians, but the Sterling team is a t comer, despite an early season weak ness. Sterling won from Ottawa, 13 to 3. while C. of E. won from Ottawa, '14 to 7. Ottawa lost to Hays, 13 to 18. While the dope gives the teams an even break, we are inclined to favor C. of E. in the battle this afternoon. If Coach E. R, ?1 lives up io announced determination of winning one game this season, today's will be a good one to win, for Thanksgiving Baker meets Ottawa for the closing game of the season, and all indications show Baker decidedly stronger tnan the Baptists. Pittsburg will be some what the favorite this afternoon, how ever. Ottawa will be in better con dition than since the first two games of the season.. Several men were out of the Ottawa lineup on account of scholastic standing when the Baptists met Sterling. It should prove to be a, good game today. While Baker university should win from Kansas Wesleyan this afternoon. the Methodists are in for a hard game, for Wesleyan. has a nice work ing eleven this vear. Only hard luck seems to account for the loss of so many games by Coach A. B. Mackie s crew this year. On three occasions a Wesleyan victory seemed imminent. only to have the opposition stage a rally in the last few minutes wmcn counted against the Salinans. A field goal in the last minute of play gave Hays Normal a, win over the Wes- eyans. and the same thing happened in the Wesleyan-Fairmount clash. Mc pherson was defeated, until the fourtn quarter of the Wesleyan-McPherson clash at Salina about mid-season, but the Bulldogs put over an aerial at tack in that period which gave the visitors a victory. Salina may again play in hard luck this afternoon, but Baker is easily the favorite in the contest. It is about time for Wes- eyan to spring a surprise and upset some dope. v Dope upsetting in the Kansas con ference seems to be a fad this season. Only one team has not roet with re verses, and that is Kansas state Normal. FViends should easily defeat the Bethel eleven -today, and that by a fairly large score. Bethel has lost all its contests to date. Onlyv a decideti surprise will contribute to a Quaker defeat. Kansas State Normal, aspirants to the Kansas conference footbail title, will meet the fast Haskell Institute eleven in Emporia this afternoon in (what promises to be the hardest con- WBV. lilts xuiiiicvi ia iiau .tio J Haskell has had a pretty successful season so far, all the games with Kan sas conference elevens being victories for the Indians. The 62 to 0 score by which the In dians took the game from Fairmount, and the 27 to 3 score by which the Kansas State Normal eleven won from Fairmount, gives the fans some com parative scores on which to judge the contest Saturday afternoon. An entirely new lineup will face the Colorado eleven Saturday afternoon when the Kansas Jaynawkers clash with the westerners. Tne changes in the lineup are due to injuries on the K. U. team, and the wish of Coaches Clark and Schlademan to keep thu crew wnich has been starting other contests in trim 'or the Missouri con test at Columbia Turkey day. Boone and McLaln are due to start at ends; Ivy and Holderman at tackles; Thompson and Haley at guards; Harris or Woodruff at cen ter; Wilson, quarter; Anderson and Krueger at halves; and Burt or Shan non at full. While Kansas wishes to humble the Coloradoans from Bou:der, the Mis souri game, always the most impor tant one in the valley, must be won, the Kansas mentors declare. But when this string of Kansas defenders start against Colorado tomorrow aft ernoon, it will not be any puny lineup, for these men have been in parts of previous games, and have performed like veterans, which they really are. WIGHT IS INJURED. Vale Halfback Goes to Infirmary With Bad Ankle. New Haven, Nov. 17. Shortly be fore the Yale varsity eleven departed today for Trenton, to await the hour for its annual game with Princeton, Ted Wight, star punter, was confined to the infirmary with a sprained ankle. The injury will keep him out of the big game. It is understood that if Wiarht Is unable to play, Neale will be given his placn at halfback. St. Mary's 13, Mayetta 13. St. Marys, Kan., Nov. 17. St. Mary's and Mayetta high schools played to a 13 to 13 tie game here Thursday afternoon. Wilserson and Wapp scored for Mayetta. A sixty yard run by Wapp gave the Bccond counter for the visitors.

Can't straighten up without sudden pain, sharp aches and twinges? Mow listen! That's lumbago, sciatica, or maybe from a strain, and you'll get relief the moment you rub your back with Koothinsr, penetrating St. Jacobs Oil. Xothing else takes out soreness, lame ness and stiffness so quickly. You simply rub it on your back, and out conies the pain. It is harmless, and doesn't burn the skin. Limber up! Don't suffer! Get a smalt trial bottle of old, honest St. Jacobs Oil from any drug store, and after using it just once you'll forget that you ever had backaciie, lurTrbago or sciatica, because your back will never hurt, or cause any more .misery.

Steve Mo Queen is just 17, but the days of his life are numbered. For the boy is in the death house of the Boyle county jail here. Murder was the charge against him. And of murder he was convicted after a fair and impartial trial. The law of the mountains caused him to take a life and the law of the state now demands his in return. McQueen is a product of the moun tains, a typical young mountaineer to whom self-preservation is the first law. He is unable to read or write. He has never been inside a school or church. Keared by parents who were illit erate, irr- a community notorious for its moonshining element, where the hatred of the "revenuer" is its only religion, McQueen never received good advice or wholesome training. Isaac Cole was a "revenuer." He threatened to have McQueen and an other lad indicted for moqnshining. That's where the law of the moun tains came in. Cole was found dead. But unlike the scores of other cases where government agents disappear or are murdered the law demanded its toll. During his trial young McQueen de nied that he was responsible for Cole's death. He declared that he was under the influence of liquor when the crime was committed. Then showing re markable resourcefulness for an illit erate, he declared that he had never been taught that he knew not right from wrong. But the jury was unmoved. The verdict was DEATH. So now with Spartan stoicism, Mr Queen calmly awaits the day when the law will snuff out his life even as he snuffed out that of Cole while his ANEW S.S. ORGANIZATION Shawnee County Council of Religious Kducation Will Be Formed. The new organization ot the Shaw nee County Sunday School association under the name of the Shawnee County Sunday School Council of Re ligious Education, will be perfected at a meeting of the representatives of the ninety-nine Sunday schools, in the county, December 5. O. W. Hascall, acting president, announced today. Each Sunday school has been asked to select a representative to serve on the council and appear at this meeting. The council will select a board of trustees that will serve as an execu tive commttee. The term of the .present officers will expire with the meeting and new officers will be selected by the board of trustees. The present officers are: O. W. Hascall, acfing president; Mrs. S. M. Fergus, secretary-treasurer; 1 E. D. Spickerman, superintendent of the ad ministrative division; W. E. Tiffany. superintendent of the adult division; Paul Moser, superintendent of the Young People's division, and Mrs. C. C. Hamilton, superintendent of the children's division. PROPOSE NEW S. S. LESSONS Christian Conference Committee Rec ommends Old Scries Be Dropped. Minneapolis, Minn., Nov, 17. Hold ing that the international series of Sunday school lessons in Protestant churches of all denominations has not been satisfactory and that the elective method of study fails to give a connected knowledge of the Bible, the world's fundamental Christian conference committee has recom mended that the international series be dropped and a new series be adopted. Action of th. committee to create -a new Sunday school Bible course, will have a nation-wide effect and will re sult in extended discussion thruout the world by those refusing and those who adopt the new study, it was said here by J. Frank Norris. chairman of the committee, upon conclusion of the work. Agitution from the change was evi dent for, several years past and at the last Fundamental Christian conven tion in Los Angeles, which was made i up of representatives from every Protestant denomination in the United States. Canada and eight foreign countries, the committee which rec- j ommended the important change was appointed to formulate a new series, according to Dr. Norris. 'It no doubt will provoke com ment." Dr. Norris declared, "but the new lessons will teach a whole con nected version of the Bible, not elec tive parts as heretofore, and the growing generations will be not sat isfied with a partial, if net emascu lated gospel." The committee advises that begin ning January 1 and thru Septeaaber, 1923, the rtudies be given in the Gos pel and Ep stles of Jonn. Naming several reasons for its ac tion, the committee declared the pre vailing methods of Bible study now in vogue are not satisfactory to the most effective Bible students of the world nor to the Sunday school pub lic at large.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 17, 1922 ;16 USE DEPTH BOMB Drop 'Em Under Ships, "ot on Top, Is Plan. "Will Be Death Knell of Big Craft, Is Claim. Philadelphia. Nov. 17. The knell of thj present day battleship has been sounded by the airplane, but not ty th dropping of bombs on its decks, a popularly supposed, according to Gen. William A. Mitchell, chief of the army air seriv-ce, -who stopped off here recently in his plane for a few minutes. New developments in air bombs, the general jjaid. have proven that it is practicable 10 sink battleships not by direc hits, but by hydro-static Pres sure created by the explosion of the bomb at a predetermined depth be neath the water in the neighborhood of the ship being attacked. Bottom Is "Tender Spot." The modern dreadnought, able to ttand up for hours against heavy gun fire, and protected with heavy armor id decks rrom bombs from aloft, is vulnerable on its unarmored bottom. The open intakes of the condensing system which admit sea water to the engine room condensers provide an -Achilless heel" oy which the great est battleship may be put out or 'Thc' terrifid force exerted by depth charges is well known, the genera, said. During the World war the breast of a diver at work was crushed in by hydrostatic pressure rom a depth charge exploded eleven miles away. The one-ton bomb of the army air "service, designed to explode be neath the water, according to General Mitchell, will crush in the bottom on most modern ships of war. A two-ton bomb has also been developed, whicn is thirteen feet six inches in lenetn. capable, the general believes, of lifting a dreadnoucht bodily out of the water by the force of its submarine explo sion. Uet Close to Coast, "with such weapons as these and an efficient air force at strategic points, General Mitchell claims no enemy fleet could safely approach within two hundred miles of the American coast. EAT L0CUSTP0DS AND GRASS Refugees on Islands of the Aegean Sea Need Assistance. Washington. Nov. 17. Refugees on the islands of the Aegean sea are in need of more than 100 tons of flour daily to sustain life, and should have 100,000 blankets and immense quanti ties of shoes and material for dom ing the Red Cross was advised today l.v D. O. Hubbard, a Y. M. C. A. rep resentative at Athens, who has jus. completed a tour of the islands. Mr Hubbard reported that on one island he found refugees living on locust pods while at another point they were boiling grass which goats had refused to eat. on certain islands the Red Cross v3 told the number of refugees ex ceeded the normal population. DR. BUAOKN TFXLS OK FAITH. Kl v Mliilr-l.-r In Charge or Evan gelistic Services Christian Church. The evangelistic meetings at the First Christian church continue with growing audiences and interest. Doc tor Baden of Kansas university, who is dine the preaching, delivered a strong sermon last evening on the sub ject -Saving Faith." He told of an inaidl who defined faith as the con Mit of the mind to what is not true. J was the speakers opinion that this definition is true if applied to much of the outgrown theology. But he averted that one who possess"" Christian faith faces the future with confidence. He said that faith like law is fun ridmental in the world in which We live and faith like religion binds us together as the original world indi cates Faith according to his opinion requires not only the consent of the mind, but th devotion of the heart nnd the obedience of the will: there fore vital faith will be expressed in confession, repentance, baptism and obedience to Christ's commandments. He maintained that you cannot have true faith without giving the whole life for faith is creative. His sublert this evening will be "The World's Greatest Curse." Spe cial music will be rendered this eve ning by a larce juvenile chorus. "Teach Me To Pray" was sung as a duet last evening by Mr and Mrs Ly man King. JWOOItE TO BOOST B.VSEBAIJj.
