calls Old Earlham Board
ing School Days.

1t was genuine pleasure for former
speaker of the house of Representa-
tives, Joseph G. Cannon, '49, to par
ticipate in the Homecoming exercises
at his alma mater today. He was
student of the boarding school days,
and this was one of his very infre-
quent visits to the old institution.
Even the fact that Earlham is To-
Gated in a Progressive stronghold had
no effect on the venerable statesmans
good spirits, and after hearty dinner
at the home of David Dougan at noon,
Mr.. Cannon turned to a newspaper
man, and with a smile, remarked:
Wayne county won't be Bull Moose
in 1915. Why. my son, by that time
ninety per cent of the Bull Moosers
will be making out affidavits that they
never did it."
But Wayne county was the only
county in the country that elected a
full Progressive ticket last fall" said
a reporter.
THAT makes no difference, my boy"
replied Mr.. Cannon. ''Ill bet it's get
ting over that affliction right now"
Recalled Boarding School Days.
When the ex-speaker reached the
college campus he recalled old board
ing school days affectionately.
Il was just 13 when l went to Earl

changes since that time. The only

to play football; and I was a pretty
good player. Why p

DANGER AHEAD FOR
FREE SUCUR POLICY
If Two More Democrats Join
Ransdell and Thompson
its Doom Assured.
(Nationa1 News Association)

WASHINGTON, June 24-The fight
against the free sugar provision in the
Underwood tariff bill was continued
in the Democratic senatorial caucus to-
day by Senator Walsh of Montana,
who declared that thousands of per-
sons in his state would be practically
ruined by the present sugar schedule.
He presented to the caucus large
number of memorials and petitions
from civic bodies and individuals in
support of his assertion.
Aligned against free sugar also are
Senators Shafroth, Colorado, Thornton
and Ransdell of Louisiana, Williams of
Mississippi, Newlands of Nevada and
Thompson of Kansas. If two sugar sup
porters join with Senators Thompson
and Ransdell and vote against free
sugar it will enable the Republicans
to defeat the provision.

Fellowship in
Advertisements.

Merchants and manufacturers
have certain articles they wish
to sell. In order to sell them
they advertise.
"That is their business" you
say; they are doing it to bene-
fit themselves"
True, they are advertising
primarily for their own profit.
But there is more to present-day
advertising than that. 1t has Gre
ated a spirit of confidence and
friendliness between the seller
and the buyer that has become
so much a part of our daily lives
that we hardly realize it unless
we stop to think.
Have you ever made a pur-
chase in the Orient? If so, you
remember how you have enter
ed a shop and after poking
through confused heaps of arti-
cles you have found something
that struck your fancy. You
asked the price and were told it
was worth, perhaps, the equiva-
lent of a dollar. Then ensued
haggling, haranguing. threats,
imprecations. until finally at
the end of half an hour you tri-
umphantly emerged from the
shop. the article in your hand
and so cents gone from your
pocket. When you looked again
at your purchase your good COM
mon sense told you it was worth
about 10 cents.
Contrast such an experience
with shopping here today. You
will appreciate as never before
the value of THE PALLA-
DIUM'S advertisements, which
lead you to firms known for
their honest goods and their fair
dealings.
