BRYAN'S DOVE OF PEACE
REALLY is A WAR EAGLE
Figure Of War God, Zeus, and
Mighty Hercules Also on Secre-
tary's Amity Seal.

Although masquerading as Secretary
Bryan's dove of peace seal, which is
being attached to peace treaties with
other nations, it has developed that the
design, copied from an ancient coin, really
represents a war eagle and not a cooling
dove. In addition. the design includes
the figure Of the war god. Zeus. who Is
seated on a throne with a scepter. or
big stick" in his clasp. Secretary Bryan
had adopted the seal as emblem OF his
desire for world amity.
The revelation was made in a letter
to the Secretary from Sir Cecil Arthur
Spring Rice British ambassador to this
country, who made inquiries of the Brit
ish museum.
Found Coin in Palestine.
There 1t was found that the coin. which
Secretary Bryan picked up In Palestine
while on a trip around the world, was
of the time of Alexander the Great.
On the other side from that bearing
the bird which Secretary Bryan advo-
Gated Is a head of Hercules, the famous
Greek hero Of mighty deeds.
In addition to the official seal of state,
II has been customary for secretaries OF
state signing treaties to also use per-
sonal seal. When Secretary Bryan learn
ed that custom. he had seal made from
his ancient coin.

Tor TIA On the other hand what kind
Of care has this tenant taken Of the
land he has lived on for twenty years
which has belonged to another man?
Without any statistics at hand the
writer would suppose that three years
is the average length Of time that
renter remains on one farm More
renters move away the second season
and a great many farm a place but
one year Why? The reasons given
are varied, but generally his leaving is
a mutual arrangement between the
owner and the renter. Sometimes
renter viii say that no man could
make a living on the farm he IS leay-
ing, yet another will do well the first
season and fail utterly the next year
The scudder farm is all good land,
river bottom. It is better land now
than it was ten or fifteen years ago.
Why? Because Robert Koch has
farmed It. That is why Joe scudder
is satisfied to have Robert Koch stay
on the farm and is building a fine new
brick dwelling for him to live in And
that is also why Robert is satisfied to
stay there because 1t is good farm
and Joe makes it pleasant for him.
And they are both satisfied because
they are making money. Emporia Ca
