McCLURE'S ENDS THE YEAR
BETTER THAN EVER,

The Christmas McClure's is primari-
ly a holiday fiction number, but the
four articles represent the very cream
of the months magazine writing. Two
of them make more absorbing read
ing than ninety-nine stories in a hun
dred. That remarkable piece of pio-
neer investigation, Miss Tarbell's His
tory of Standard Oil. has for its second
installment The Rise of the Standard
Oil Company An article which tells
a true story more Interestingly than
fiction is Lincoln Steffens' The Amer,
lean Man on Ho. setback" John Mitch
ellis article on the Coal Strike speaks
for itself. OF great interest is the edi-
torial announcement that it will be fol
lowed by two articles by Ray Stan
nard Baker presenting the n%on-uniOn
miners side of the question. John
La Farge's noble appreciation OF Al
brecht Durer completes his series of
papers on old masters, the most not
able contributions to art criticism of
recent years. The fiction is of unusual
merit v for a fiction number. There
are four owe stories. all first class and
and no two alike.

In the crisis that must come into
the life Of any ordinary kitten IoCko
was a valiant and cyer-rcady cham
pion. When mischieyous boys or
passing dogs threatened it with real
or fancicd danger the monkey made
horrible g:imaccs and pcltcd them
with stones. When the battle grew
too hot JOcko would tuck the kitten
under its arm and ascend to the top
of the house. When aroused to a
frenzy the monkey often shook the
kitten at its t~Ormcntors, threatening
to hurl puss at them. But he never
did so and the kitten thTived on.
When night came Jocko took his
little prOtegc to bed. Going to bed
involved a leap of a dozen feet to a
little age in the fork of a tree, and
this matter OF retiring has always
been a fearful strain pom the nerves
of the kitten.

The famous broncho busting contest

a splendid article by Lincoln Steffens
in the December McClure's, entitled
The American Man on Horseback"
The winner, as Mr.. Steffens tells, lis
proclaimed champion ofthe world; II
that he is, without a doubt. though

SUCCESSIONTOFRESIDENCY

Washington, Jan. 25.-The Senate
Committee on the judiciary today Or
dered a favorable report on a joint
resolution proposing an amendment to
the Constitution giving Congress pow
err to fix the succession to the Presi-
denCy in case of the death or disability
of that officer. The amendment reads:
Article NNI.-ln all cases not pro-
vided for by Article H., clause 3, of the
Constitution, where there Is no per-
son entitled to discharge the duties OF
the office of President. the same shall
devOlve upon the Vice President. Tho
Congress may by law provide for the
case where there Is no person entitled
to hold the Office of President or Vice
President. declaring what officer shall
then act as President, and such officer
shall act accordingly until the disabili-
~ shall he removed or President
shall be elected.

CT the Cabinet and was not named in
the succession. Since the law was pass
ed there has arisen grave doubt of the
power Of Congress to, under the Con-
stitution. legislate on the subject.
Many eminent lawyers and authorities
en- the Constitution contend that that
instrument gives Congress no author
ity to fix the succession and that the
passage Of the act was an assumption
by Congress Of power which II does not
possess. To set at rest any doubt as
to the legality of the succession. It is
proposed to pass the joint resolution
for ratification by the States, adding to
the Constitution the article comforting
that power on Congress.

we imposed a duty of 10 per cent ad.

enterprise took the matter up. A fac
tory was built, few foreign watch.
makers were imported as teachers.
and the boys from the neighboring
farms and villages were called to learn
the mysterious and delicate handicraft
of matchmaking. The American boys
were quick to learn. and, as often hap.
pens, were not satisfied until they
know more about the subject than
their teachers.
Then followed tho weary tension OF
muscle and the ovcr-present desire to
employ the brain in the daily task.
Gradually the thought was worked out.
and in turn 1t developed delicate ma.
chinery, with muscles of iron and
nerves Of steel, capable of making the
fine mechanism of the watch. The
machine proved more delicate than
the human hand, and moved with such
eternal precision that 1t seemed almost
imbued with human thought The re-.
suit was that the delicate parts of n
watch were produced, with each part
fitting every other part, and when
these We're assembled together they
formed better watch than the hand
OF man had ever before fashioned. The
machines multiplied. The price of
watches went down almost to a song.
The new watch found its way into
the house Of the American farmer and
artisan; II crossed the sea, even to
Switzerland. In the cradle Of the
watch industry Of the world, Geneva,
the American tourist will see placards
in the windows American watches

the American watch is the best in the
