Nunnort Pnxne RiII.

Washington, March 1.--Secretary Shaw appeared before the House com mittee on ways and means today In support of the Payne bill for the licensing of custom house brokers. He urged that the licensing of such brok- CTS would tend to keep "shysters' out of the business and would result in raising the standards just as the licensing of professional men has ele- vated the professions. Secretary Shaw said the government loses from $lO.- O00.000 to S40,000, 900 a year on under valuation frauds and said much of this loss could be avoided if more well equipped agents could be employed

Fire At WesIeyan UniverrIty.

Middletown. Conn, March 1.--Wes- leyan University sustained a severe loss by fire early today when old North College, containing 150 rooms, was practically destroyed. The fire, which started in the attic, burned so rapidly that little was saved. The loss is placed at $S00OO covered by insurance. The burned building was erected in 1927 and formed the nucleus of the present college group and was of great historic interest at Wesleyan. All of the 150 students in the building made their escape, and many left the dor mitory In their neigh clothes

Look at the Bright Side.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
1t Is common saying that there are
always two ways of looking at a thing.
and, again. that there are always two
sides to a matter. In no phase of ex-
perience Is this more true than in the way
in which we look at life Some regard 1t
with eyes. hearts and minds full Of hope
that hope which springs eternal in the
human breast" that hope which Mrs.
Browning describes as searching for fruits
of light,
"Her fair quick feet being armed from stones
By slippers of pure gold
Others, on the contrary. look at life with
warped minds. saddened hearts and sorrow
full eyes. ever expecting the worst, and
therefore unable to appreciate the good.
II you remind them that after night comes
the dawn, after the storm the calm. they
retort by telling you that these sayings can
be reversed with equal truth. II you say
that every cloud has silver lining. they
ask you. What about those that are oppo-
site the sum-" Their pessimism blinds them
to the fact that those that are indeed OPP
posite the sun lie piled. mountain upon
mountain of snowy whiteness. tinged with
rainbow hues.
There can be no doubt as to which OF
these two classes does most good In the
world which is helping on the happiness Of
tho race and the individual. or which Is
likely to be most efficient In any sphere OF
duty to which their lot In life may assign
them. Although in the field Of evolution q
great change has taken place since man
began his upward career of development
of mind. in that he now makes his own
environment and triumphs over the natural
environment. still the law holds good that
the environment tells upon the individual.
If we create for ourselves an environment
of pessImism, ever expecting evil and look
ing upon good as fortuitous in a mass that
Is generally evil. We cannot be surprised II
we become insenSlble to the good: IL, as 1t
were, we become color-blind and see the
bright and glorious roses only az green
among the green. If for no other reason.
yet for this. that we may enjoy the variety
and color Of life, 1t is well to learn to look
on the bright side. for In adaptation to en-
vironment lies the power to see things as
they really are.

The Finishing Touch.

From Dress.
Those dainty floating scarfs add a most
effective finishing touch to the evening
toilet.
In their original simplicity they appeared
In chiffon. sheer crepes. f1lmy louisines and
other fabrics whose texture lends itself well
as a background for artistic designs and
color work.
But in their later appearances even softer
effects prevail
Real laces-chiefly Of the variety whose
patterns stand out in bold relief from
filmy background. or even without any
background at all-are alternated with os-
trich plumes, with swansdown or more
often with marabout, whose fluffy softness
gives a most becoming effect around the
shoulders.
Plain straight lengths of the real Chinese
handwoven crepe are in high vogue. Elab-
crate embroideries, cunningly wrought by
those oriental masters of line and color, add
to their richness and charm. Many are the
uses to which those long scarfs lend them
selves and at least one will prove valu-
able investment whether the wardrobe be
large or limited.
Shaped boas in marabout are piquantly
punctuated at intervals with fringes OF
ostrich plumes. All of the pastel tones can
readily be found in those. to accord with
or contrast with the dinner or dancing
frock.

KOREAN GHOSTS DAMNED.
Precautions Taken to Prevent Spooks
From Running Down Hill.

Precautions Taken to Prevent Spooks
From Running Down Hill.
From the New York Sun.
In this age Of spooks and disembodied in
f1uences that swirl and gibber about the
heads of unseeing mortals in hocks in
structive light upon the care and culture
Of spirits may be gained from the Koreans.
These people dam up the walls Of their
tombs so that the spirits of the dead may
not run down hill and thus become q ter
rible menace to the living.
A Korean chooses always for the site of
q tomb some steep hillside. high above the
floor of the valley. that the tmps of dark
ness coming up through the middle of the
earth may have a hard clumb uphill after
they have emerged from the ground be-
fore they reach the burial place of the de-
ceased
The tomb closely resembles a saucer with
the cup inverted and set down in it's mid
die. The edges Of the saucerlike dixie about
the central circular mound are raised some
times to the height OF four or five feet
and carefully turfed 80 as to resist the
washing effect of the winter rains. Thus
the spirit OF the deceased. buried deep un
der the central mound. is effectuaIly dam
med In and mewed up by the encircling
wall OF earth.
If by chance during Hood time the
tanning wall Of the tomb should give way
and be carried down hill the faithful Ko-
rean son or brother OF the deceased hur-
ries out with his wooden spade and re-
builds the dam az speedily a. possible. He
fears lest the restless spirit within the
tomb should be washed down hill with the
kin would be forever blighted. For moth
ing is 50 horrible in Korea as a spirit that
has escaped It's tomb and wanders In venge-
full mood about the habitations OF the living.
