Chicago, June 7.-William Alden
Smith, Of Michigan, says the real con-
test here is not over the presidential
nomination at all.
"We must name man who can lead
us to clean majority in the senate, 3"
said Smith today, "and that means we
must carry Missouri. A republican
president with the present senate might
just as well sit down and twiddle his
thumbs four years.
Indiana, Maine, Nevada, Missouri
and Nebraska are the states Smith says
must elect republican senators.

UTILIZING THE DEAD WOOD.

At an expense of 1926 for saw
mill and some wages for wood cut
ters, the city is about to 60 into the
wood business, with a prospect of
returns on the venture which would
delight many business man these
days. The dead trees are to be
cleaned out of the parks in all the
boroughs, and on the suggestion of
Park Commissioner Weier of Queens
the wood thus cut will be sold to the
education department at $13 a cord.
There is ready and permanent mar
ket, so that the estimated return is
$1,000 this year, and a larger one
next.-New York Tribune.

WHAT SHE REALLY NEEDS
Village Deacon Uses Words OF Wis
dom in Addressing His Young
Lady Friend.

$50, my young lady friend, you
think it almost unbearable in the
old town, do you?" said the Village
Deacon of the Osborne Farmer.
"Altogether too dull to suit you.
You have grown clear away from
life in a quiet, rural place and long
for the paved streets, marble cafes,
crowded street cars and whirl and
hustle of Kansas City. Of course
all you know about city life is what
you have heard someone say, what
you have read and what you have
dreamed-all, by the way, very un-
reliable sources Of information.
Time hangs too heavily on your
hands here. l notice that your poor
old mother has plenty to occupy her
time. She is never idle very long at
time. You might jump in and
take some of her burdens week or
two. There are also lots OF good
books you have never read and your
knowledge of fancy work could be
written on a postage stamp. You
are tired of the same old faces every
day. Perhaps you don't know that
those old familiar faces are the bull
wark that stands between you and
harm. If you could get away from
here for few months among stran-
gers those old familiar faces would
look SO good to you that you would
cry at the thought of them. No,
you do not need a change of place.
What you need is change of heart"
