1t is the most drastic step for econ

statement accompanying the procla-

the proclamation is divided makes its
purpose certain.
"The purpose and effect of this
proclamation is not export prohibit

president states. 1T is not the inten-

our foreign trade: but our own do
nestle needs must be adequately safe

An American Franc.

DIR. John Bassett Moore, who gives
constant attention TO the problem of
extending American trade with the
countries of South America, thinks
that a business requisite now lacking
is the establishment Of monetary
unit common to those countries and
the United States. His idea is that
this unit should be, in its relation
to the dollar, similar to the French
franc piece. If adopted, would be
known as the American franc, and it
would be so coined as to have the
value of approximately one-fifth of
the American gold dollar. The coin
age of such unit was first preached
by Doctor Moore several years ago,
but the plan is not forgotten and may
yet be adopted.

All Circus Rinos the Same Size.

Railway tickets are the same size
all over Britain and the Continent and
America-viz., pa by IL inches-and
have been so for the last 90 years.
This surely indicates Worldwide
tendency to standardize. Every build
er's ladder is built to scale, and the
firemans ladder is on the scale of the
seamans run up the ratlines, not the
bricklayer's trudge up the wooden
rungs. But perhaps the greatest tri-
umph of standardiZing is that of the
circus. There are big and little cir
cuses in the world, but the ring is al
ways OF the same diameter. for the
bareback rider has discovered the ex-
act angle at which he can square the
circle. No matter whether it be n
ring cut in the turf or a luxuriously
appointed theater, the circus ring
never varies foot.-London Tit-Bits

BRITISH ARMY ONCE IN BERLIN
Several Regiments of Adventurous No
bIes Went There to Help Old
Frederick v.

II was somewhere about the middle
of July, 1929, that British army ar
rived in Berlin The account of it's do
ings may not be found in any history
books, for the secret papers are safely
stored in the state archives of the
Prussian capital. At that time Berlin
was a small riverside town, but under
the able rule of the Great Eiector" 1t
quickly became a place of considerable

invasion, however, was not one of con-
quest. II was the result of a promise
which james / had made to his son-in-
law, Frederick V. The Elector Pala.
fine Frederick had placed himself at
the head of the Protestant Union of
Germany He accepted the crown of
Bohemia in 1919, and it was in order
to help the newly elected king against
the followers of the Lusatians that the
British troops were sent to Berlin. The
force, which was composed of many
penniless but adventure loving mobiles
recruited from all parts of England
and Scotland, was commanded by Sir
Andrew Grey. A letter written by
James | which Is TO be seen preserved
In the state paper office, states that
"the force was some 5000 strong, and
constituted one of the finest armies
ever seen on the battlefield" 1t goes
on TO say that the men We're clad in
red and white Hanoverian uniforms,
and were well armed and efficient sol
diers. The contingent landed on the
Prussian coast early in the spring of
1920, and after a perilous march
through the neighboring swamps ar
rived at Tempelhof. on the outskirts of
Berlin. There it was that the trouble
arose. The Berllners hastily barri-
caded the streets and prepared to de-
fend the city against the British. But
the British had no sinister designs on
the city. and after resting lifted their
camp and marched into Bohemia,
where they joined the camp of. Fred

was fought-..which ended so disas-
trously that Frederick V, the winter

been the cause of so much distrust in
Prussia, came TO an end.-Dundee Adj

Theoretically. says a jeweler, the
best watches of today are perfect, but
actually they both gain and lose time
every day. Even if the good watch
does not vary one second at the end
of the "a hours, the expert insists, it
has both gained and lost in that time.
If it is wound in the morning it runs
fast and toward the next morning runs
slow, thus equalizing the time. He

THe FALKIANo5' ONLY SEA- OF LEARNlf4o

MAR out in southern seas, thou
- sand miles from Montevideo and
several hundred miles eastward
from the land of fire." TERRA
del Fuego, lie the lonely. dreary,
barren Falkland islands. Ceaseless
surges from Antarctic wastes dash
upon the rocky headlands to the dis
turbance of only the wild and stately
penguin; the mighty roar of the
breakers wasting their beauty, far
from the haunts of artist or photog-
rapher, is lost in the dismal fog.
A land far away from the busy
world; land without q tree, without
a newspaper. without a cable to the
outer world, with few land birds, be-
yond the course of the average steam
er; indeed, land without sunshine,
1t might be said, for the sky is usually
overcast, producing annually go days
of cloudy or rainy weather.
Despite weather conditions, how
ever, the Falklands present interest

From that time onward they have

their claim to the Spaniards. who drove
away the English in ITO. Later the
islands were abandoned; Buenos Aires
founded a colony in 1923, but in con-
sequence of a dispute the colony was
destroyed by q United States man-of-
war QS3D. Shortly afterward the
British again gained possession, which
continues to the present time, although
it is said that Argentina claims the
islands as her right and lawful pos
session.
Two Large Islands in the Group.
The Falkland group comprises two
large islands, known as East and West
Falkland, respectively, and more than
hundred smaller ones, with total
area of nearly 1000 square miles, al
most as large as the state of New
Jersey East Falkland is the larger
of the two and they are separated by
narrow strait.
When wessailed into Port Stanley,
the capital of the little colony and the
largest of the twenty or more settle
lutHlS, TIE tiOuOy Weather pre-
vailed: several days of ocean-buffeting
had been followed by calmer seas and
the entrance to the small bay known
as Port William inlet, was pleasant
diversion. The low, brownish hills
barren and somber looking, presented
! little to attract the business traveller !;
yet, to the lover of nature who de-
lights TO wander far from beaten paths
there are always sights to please.
Comparatively few ships make the
! port OF Stanley; other than the coming
of vessels in distress there is not much
traffic with the outside world, and as
consequence the arrival of pas
senger ship is a matter of some inter-
est to the people.

Cheapest Dish In the World.

Corn is great food-a plain and
simple food But corn-at least the
solid variety-is not taken straight.
Moreover the addition of water does
not mend matters. The flavor of corn
alone Is too faint and elusive for our
buttered and peppered tasta-buds to-
detect its rare aroma.
One ounce of shredded Goldfish Is
sufficient TO impart distinct favor to
a quart of cornmeal mush. The addi-
ton of an ounce ttwo tablespoonfuls)
of oil will increase the palatability
and add greatly to the nutritiye value
of the recipe. This dish may be
cooked as mush and then eaten with
butter, or fried, or baked. 1t may be
served alone or with dressing.
