WAS CALLED INTO CASE
Counsel in Drug Company Merger
Testifes at Reopened
Hearing.

Louis X. Liggett of Boston, q director
of the United Drug Company. was the
first witness called today before the Sen
ate judiciary committee at the reopened
hearing on the nomination of Louis d.
Brandeis to the Supreme Court of the
United States. The committee is looking
into any connection Mr.. Brandeis may
have had as a lawyer in a merger be-
tween the United Drug Company and the
Riker- Hegeman stores.
Last October, Mr.. Liggett testified

torney at Boston. began TO investigate
the merger and MIR. Liggett with his
counsel Mr.. Snow. went to Mr.. Ander
sons Office ITO lay their hands on the
table"
"Nr Snow said Iiggett considered
Mr.. Anderson wrong in the position he
was taking, but said as he tMr. Snow
had always been the representative of
corporations. he might be in error and
would ike to get the view of some one
who had represented other interests.
asked him who he would like to con-
suit and he said Mr.. Brandeis was the
only one. and I told him to go ahead
and see him"
Mr. Liggett testified Mr.. Snow con-
suited Mr.. Brandeis, and that the two
lawyers rendered an opinion favora bic
to the merger. The opinion was put
into the record with a report of Mr.. An
derson to the Attorney General
Senator Borah brought out by ques-
ton that the employment of Mr. Bran
deis resulted in no change in the merger
plans.

gett, next took the stand and gave testi-

logical sections met in separate rooms
DIR. Joseph H. Pratt of Boston eX-
planned TO the clinical section that
patients of a tuberculosis class main
tanned by Emanuel Church. Boston,
whose wage-earning power was re-
stored by proper treatment earned
$50. .000 last year. The total expense OF
the class for the past ten years was
about $4,000.
The American Red Cross announced
winners of competitions on sale OF
Christmas seals last year Rhode
Island won first place among states OF
class A, with the sale of 2.29 seals per
capita. Minnesota ranked first in class
B. with 13f and New York state first
in class c. with is. The classes were
based on population figures.
The remarkable sale OF S0.00O.0O0
seals for 1915 bids fair to be extended

reach this record mark If we do our

Poverty and tuberculosis.

The close relation of poverty to tuber-
culosis is emphasized in a report made
public today by the public health serv-
ice after an EXTENSIVE investigation in
many cities One sixth of all tubercu-
losfs cases. it declares, develop in
cheap lodging houses. and one-fifth
are traceable to occupational hazards
and bad working conditions.
The great factor underlying the en-
tire problem says the report lis seem
ngly that of economic conditions"
As examples, statistics gathered in
Cincinnati and Pittsburg are cited In
the former city's tenement district tu-
berculosis morbidity was found to be
three times as great as in the better
sections: and the average monthly in
come of 1871 families in which cases
were found was computed at $50. Much
the same condition was discovered in
Pittsburgh, where nearly 10000 factory
workmen submitted to physical exam
inations in the course of the investiga-
ton.

"Why did you want to consult Mr..

looked at these combinations from the
point of view of the public and ! thought
his opinion would be more valuable than

JR. What does Palladium mean?
Why, there are two main sources
it is taken from: First, it was the
name of an oracle that would tell
you anything you wanted to know.
and second, it was famous statue
of the goddess Pallas on which the
safety of Troy was said to depend.
So the word has come to mean any
thing essential to nation, and
that's why we call our paper THE
PALLADIUM.
nj. S. The reason they have
chose funny doors" at the Post
Office is to keep out all cold air
and draughts in winter.
II. l.. Men have worn long
trousers for just one hundred years
or rather that was when the style
first came in but it took a while
for people to get accustomed to the
funny awkward looking things.
l.. M. There are 4s stars in our
present flag. The last two were
added in 1912.
F. r. Toad-stools are the flow,

decaying wood, often under the

of little rootlike fibers that may
be living under the surface. tina,

stools which shed the seeds and
then disappear.

HeIenBall Tells Campfire History

The Wahpikameki Camp Fire,
composed of twelve members and a
guardian, was organized March Is.
This Camp Fire chose as its name
Wahpikameki. meaning White Wa
ters. The symbol is a tree stand
ing by a river The symbolism in
the design is, first, the tree with
the trunk and six branches, stand
ing for the seven points of the law
of the Camp Fire, and second, the
river at the foot of the tree, with
its three bends standing for the
Camp Fire watchwords, Work
Health and Love The symbol as
whole means working together;
the stream depending on the tree,
and the tree upon the stream for
it's moisture. This symbol is very
effective when worked out in beads
in the headband. The green tree
means growth, the white wster
means purity, and the water out

lined in red means courage: led
being also the Camp Fire color.
The name of the guardian OF
this fire is Niklanani, meaning
Little Mother" and also protector.
leader and helper in accomplishing
things.
The W'ahpikameki Camp Fire as
yet has not done any great thing:
but have been holding weekly meet
ings. selecting names and symbols
and preparing to attain the rank OF
Wood Gatherer. A number OF
symbols and Indian names have
been gathered from books in the
City library and the High School
library. Some girls. however. have
made original symbols and designs
for their headbands. The Camp
Fire gave a successful candy sale
this last spring. but is planning
greater and larger things for the
future. HELEN BALL.
