extended Congressman Fowler OF the
Twenty-fourth Illinois in the plain
defeat of his effort to get home for
Thanksgiving dinner. We have ad-
mitted the possibility Of his zone be-
ing equal to vieins with Washing

acquitted himself OF desire to take
out of the national treasury the
1925 in mileage to which he would
be entitled in going to and returning
from Elizabethtown. And We would
as willingly acQuit Congressman
Thomas OF Third Kentucky OF any
such design upon our Uncle Samuers
purse. had he not made this impos-
sible for us. But in speech in
the House the other day Mr.. Thom-
as declared boldly that he wanted to
90 home for the mileage. Mr.. Thom-
as, as we calculate distances. would
be entitled to about $ll.15 more than
Mr.. Fowler. And he says he needs
the money.
"The people owe said Mr.
Thomas, would be glad if got my
mileage. Ineed it and nine tenths
of the members of the house feel ex-
actly as | do" The long special ses-
sion has undoubtedly been trying on
members of congress. Spa. r. Clark
has had to move to avCi0 an increase
of $50 per moth in the rent OF his
house. 1Ie ra,acity Of our Capitoli-

doubt not the constituents OF many
of the members who have had to
stand the gaff this year will see to

relieve them. In bearing such bur-

to the situation is Mr.. Bryans ad-
mission that he cannot live in Wash

mission has at leastt fixed public at

representatives. Next November will
likely see a large number OF new

ILLS IN TRAIN OF AVIATION
Sudden Ascent to High Attitudes, and
as Sudden Descent, Frequently
Brings on Sickness.

M. Berget, a French aeronaut, aft
er speaking of the conditions of the
atmosphere in general, brings out
some points on aviator's sickness.
Aeroplanes sometimes reach attitudes
of ten thousand feet in an hour, and
here the effects on the ear such as
humming or cracking noise are about
the same as in a balloon, but the ef-
feet on the respiratory organs is diff
ferent The pilot is sooner out of
breath and he feels special kind of
uneasiness. During the descent, the
heart beats are Of greater amplitude,
but without accelerating. A quicker
descent in a sailing flight at speed
of 1000 or 1900 feet a minute or
even more, causes a feeling of spe-
cial kind, or uneasiness, accompanied
with humming in the ears. Burning
in the face is also felt and severe
headache, also the great tendency to
sleep which has been before observed.
The movements of the body are slug
gish and unskillful, These symptoms
continue for some time after the land
ing, and the tension in the arteries is
noticed to be higher than the normal

ADJUSTING SCHOOLS TO FARM
Opinion Advanced That Country Boys
and Girls Should BE Taught
Rural Subjects.

Advocating that the boys and girls
stay on the farm and at the same
time teaching city subjects in the
rural schools is contradictory, If the
boys and girls are taught one thing
they cannot be expected to desire to
do something else even If so ad-
vised.
Boys and girls in thirty-four schools
In Wright county, Iowa, were asked
what they desired to do. OF the 1874
boys, 157 desired to leave the farm
and 1863 of the 174 girls desired to do
likewise. But after agriculture aud
home economics had been taught for
three years the same question was
asked in the same schools. This time
162 of the ia boys desired to stay
on the farm and 161 of the 17S girls.
This changing of an almost unani-
nous desire to stay on the farm
seems almost miraculous. Yet it was
done through making change in the
course of study. writes w. c. Palmer
in the Breeders Gazette
Boys and girls will desire to do the
things they have been taught how to
do Their interest is developed in the
things they are taught. Agriculture
and home economics are the. things
that boys and girls are most interest
ed in to begin with. They live in a
great agriculture and home economics
laboratory.
The knowledge that they have when
they come to school is on these sub
iects. Education to be the most effec-
tive must begin with what the chill
dren know.
The will to do springs from the
knowledge that one can do. One
| likes to do what one can do well. Do
| ing work that one does not under
stand is drudgery. Most boys must
enter productive work. II they are
not educated for it then it will be
| drudgery. Most girls will manage
homes. If they are not taught about
/ it homemaking would be a drudgery.
! 1t is in the power of the schools to
make their enthusiastic workers or
drudges of the boys and girls.

Hello Nation.

Hello! We are the greatest tele-
phone users in the world. The daily
average of talks over the telephone
last year was over 26,O0O.0O0. There
are 10000 places, towns, cities and
hamlets from which telephone mes
sages may be sent says Leslie's Week
ly. This is 5000 more than the num-
Der of our post Offices, 10000 more
than the number of our railroad sta
tions and three times the number OF
telegraph Offices in the country. There
are nearly 100000 telephone stations
in the Bell system-an increase last
year of over 100000. These are the
facts reported by the American Tele-
graph C Telephone company in refer.
ence to the Bell business. 1t earned
last year nearly $43,O00,OO0. Will it be
believed that the majority of its
shares are owned by women and less

SILLY IDEA THAT DIES HARD
Average Man, in Throes of Discon-
tent, Finds Solace In the
Phrase, "Pass a Law"

In the course of an interesting dis
cussion in the department called "The
Interpreters House," in the American
Magazine, appears the following:
when something happens that we
do not like, what is the first thing we
say? There ought to be a law
against it. Every time! That Is the
unconscious tribute we all pay to the
queerest, the most naive and stupid
superstition in a world where all su-
perstition dies hard enough-that all
you need to do to stop anything is
to pass law against 1t.
mo amount of experience, appar-
emily, will free the minds of men from
the incubus, the hoodoo, of this ex-
traordinary superstition. No matter
what the issuel If you want to stop
gambling, splitting, combinations of
capital or of labor prostitution, college
fraternities, the high cost of living,
arson, saloons, monopoly in restraint
of trade, the turkey trot, burglary,
tips, walking on the grass-whatever
it is, there is only one thing to do
pass a law against it. Then every
body will be contented; everybody
will believe that the offense will cease
at once, or at least as soon as you
have gotten a sufficient number of
people in Jail. Only get enough laws
passed, and, above all, If you can
only get enough people in Jail, you
have realized the average mans mil
lennial hopes"

Pronress of Cremation.

No. 26 of the Transactions" of the
Cremation Society of England, which
has just been published. states that
there were 1,134 cremations in Great
Britain in 1912, compared with 1923 in
1911. A list is given of the well
known persons who were cremated
during the year, including the Bishop
of Truro and Rev. Charles Voysey.
There are 13 crematories in this coun-
try, of which five are municipal Sum-
maries are given of the progress OF
cremation abroad. Some "Short Rea-
sons for Cremation" are appended, in
which the plea is advanced that it ere
moves the possibility of being buried
alive."-Dundee Advertiser.

No Standardized Dress.

1t is a pleasure to stamp despite
fully on the praise Of Prof. Walter
Sargent of Chicago for the Chinese
custom of "one established style Of
dress for women"
Life might be cheaper under such a
dull gray provision of costume. But
it would certainly not be worth liv-
ing. The whole trouble with costumes
today is that they are too much alike.
Instead of designing a dress that Is
becoming to her own dimensions, pro-
portions and other endowments of ma
ture, the average woman accepts the
fashion of the hour, whatever it may
be-large sleeves, small hips, no
waist or whatever the fashion gods
decree.
What is needed is not more stand
ardization, but more individuality in
dress. A declaration of independence
is the crying feminine need of the
hour-not a uniform designed by any
board of conomists.-New York Trib-
une.

Ghost of Fraorance,

That is curious story, told in the
London Spectator, of the ghosts Of vi
olets seen and smelt in the Protestant
cemetery In Rome. A scent ghost was
recently referred to in connection
with the militants, strange associa-
ton! They destroyed, in a certain
Welsh town, venerable tree under
which the dead body of woman was
once found, and in the dead hand was
clasped bunch of wild thyme. No
body knew the woman. and there was
no wild thyme near. Yet. afterwards.
the scent Of wild thyme "a strong and
unmistakable SCENT was often no
ticed at that spot. Now that the tree
the setting of the tragedy-has been
destroyed, will the scent still haunt
the place? That Is the question that
the people of the town are asking.

Economy In HIah Places.

Mr.. Bryan's lunch basket habit re-
minds the London Chronicle of similar
instances in English history. In the
early eighteenth century a wave OF
economy flooded Britain's civil sery-
ice. The commissioners of customs.
about 1922, were filed with ideas of
economical reforms. They restricted
their STAFF to so many reams of paper
and a certain number of pens a year.
And more. They put their own house
in order. They issued a self-denying
ordinance to the effect that they would
in future buy their own breakfast cof-
fee, pay their own coach lire and pur-
chase their own books and pamphlets.

SPIRITUALlsM AS A SCIENCE

call spiritualism a science. for it
professed to yield its results by expert
ments which could be repeated tested
and compared on the accepted laws OF
evidence; to attain "a world of spirit
that took shape and form and practical
intelligibility, in ordinary rooms and
under very nearly ordinary circum-
stances" 1t said: Seeing is believ-
ing, handling is proof" 1t did not re-
quire you to take the medium on trust.
1t had no priesthood, no dogmas; for
it's central statement, that the living

was not truth to be received on the
word of another, but challenge which
whose would might verify. Moreover,
though some have questioned il the
name Of religion can rightly be at
tached to spiritualsm, it does without
doubt bring its adopts back from
doctrines of the lectureroom or abb
stract theory to that primitive condi-
ton of thought in which religion finds
main beginning. For religion is the
problem of the next world" call it
how you will. And spiritualism un-
dertakes to solve the problem by the
scientific method, exactly as the chem.

Does radium exist ply putting a
sample of the thing sought into our

medium is a priest, any more than the
class or the inquirer can be termed
disciples. Experiment, in both cases.
