Trip Is Educational.

The trip through the brewery was no
less interesting. From top to bottom the
mechanism OF the plant presented a pol
ished and shining appearance. There
were scores OF courteous guides. The
plant brought forth exclamations of COM
mendaton for It's sanitary condition
from every side All workers were In
uniform. Splendid order was maintained
and the plant was in actual operation
throughout the day
While the grounds were most crowded
by the great throng. music was furnished
by the Ogden City band. a stand was
arranged amid a group of evergreen trees
between the two main buildings. The
scenic effect was made to reproduce a
Swiss village setting. German paintings
were hung here and there and on the
walls of the building, with many familiar
Inscriptions. while signboards on every
hand told the history OF the Institution

n ~fY DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS:
INA Though a great many more
ii letters are written every week
than we have room to print,
l am sorry to say there is moth
ing in many Of the letters that real
ly seem to indicate that many of you
boys and girls know what l meant
when l said to make your letters of
interest.
Few Of you have any Mothers-so
far as l can judge from the letters;
all Of you seem to be too interested
in your personal appearance, the
things you Iike-or don't like, Or the
plans you are making for your own
enjoyment to think Of your Mother.
1t is a certainty that the most I'm
happy people on earth are the selfish
people. Can't you all call to mind
some boys and girls who never seem
sorry when you don't know your les
son, or who can't sympathiZe with
you when you have been disappoint-
ed?
These are the selfish ones whose
own worries are too important for
them to think Of any one else.
Let me tell you a little story: there
was once a girl whose parents lived in
a house too small for the girl to have
'parties" and it grieved the Mother
very much; the giIl's birthday was
near, and the mother planned to give
a dinner-party, the young guests to
come for formal dinner and after
ward to enjoy conversation as they
could not dance nor play games be-
cause of the little house.
In making out the list of those TO
be invited, the girls whose names
were on the list were asked to name
the boys whom they would like as
dinner partners. In this way a very
congenial crowd was invited, but it
SO happened that a brother of one of
the girls was not named by any Of
the other girls, and he was not asked.
The dinner was very successful,
the girls father having sent every
thing out from the city, and every
body seemed to enjoy it.
Some time afterWard a club COM
posed largely Of the young men who
had been dinner guests, gave a dance,
and Of course, the girl was invited.
But the young man who had not been
ise from each member of the club
that none should ask the girl to
dance, nor to show her any special at
tentiOn.
You may imagine how the girl felt
as the dance progressed and she
found herself always left alone; it
was long time before she realized
just what the cause Of this tremend
Gus discourtesy was-and she never
forgot it.
That one boy. in his utter selfish
ness, made q large crowd OF young
people unhappy and caused break in
friendships that never was healed.
Let's think a little less of self and
lot more Of others. Write me what
your plans are for Christmas and how
you hope to earn the money for the
little gifts you hope to make

House, are now admitted to
have been but excuses.
The real reason as to why the
Republicans were unwilling to
permit a congressional investi-
cation of the sugar trust is,
therefore, again a debatable
question. Was it because the
Attorney General had been a
former sugar trust attorney as
well as Il former steel trust at
torney? Was it because Henry
+. Taft, the brother of the Pres
ident. was then and is now the
official sugar trust attorney
Or was it because the sugar
trust has always been a friend
and ally of the Republican par
ty, and one of its star campaign
fund contributors?

Cat is Out of Bag.

Soon after President Taft enter
ed the White Honse a movement
was started by members Of Con-
gress to bring about a Congress
sional investigation of the sugar
trust. II was not a partisan
movement. Senator Borah of
Idaho, Republican, introduced
a sugar investigation resolution
in the Senate. and Campbell of
Kansas, Republican, introduced
a similar one in the House.
The President was greatly dis
pleased. He sent a message to
Congress advising against an
investigation on the ground
that it might give immunity to
the men higher up and other
wise embarass the government.
The message was based on an
opinion of United States Attor-
ney General Wickersham, who
was inspiring Washington dis
patches at the time with the
impression that he was about TO
prosecute the trust heads crimi-
nally for the 81. 100000 sugar
underweight frauds.
Now comes the Attorney'Gen-
eral with the statement, made
under oath before a House in
vestigating committee, that he
never believed that the heads
of the sugar trust could be sue
cessfully prosecuted for the un-
derweight frauds. He also says
they would not have secured
immunity from prosecution had
they testified.
In other words the excuses
given by both the President and
Attorney General as to why the
sugar trust should not be inves-
tigated under Republican
