Il, II Is beautiful brown material, and
Is trimmed with brown fur; and
mother says when she was married
she had the same kind OF suit
trimmed with brown fur, and that 1t
wore like iron!"
That's fine" replied Dick, for II
will match my new suit. and mother
SAYS that brown is the best color for
my complexion, so my suit is exactly
the same material. and the same shade
OF brown"
When everything was packed for
the journey, Dick and Betsy started
of hand in hand. And as they dove on
the front porch into the Big Pond. the
whole otter family dove off also. and
they had a great swim In the moonlit
water. For the family escorted them
until they reached the farther shore
and the big wood.
II was now midnight. and their
feathered neighbors gave them
serenade. or an evening concert. But
YOU see the best songsters were asleep.
And you would have laughed TO have
heard the owls. the Looms and the
Blue Herons trying to sing a fare
well to Dick and Betsy. For each song
ster sang different song, and in a
different key. 1t was indeed funny
music.

otter family was great as they told
Dick how il happened. And all begged

II W break faith with W who die

A promise made beside y desthoea
is a pledge to be kept tho the heavens

II we keep not faith with those who
died, with those who must sufrer from
youth to age, with those who accepted
our pledges at their face value and
went forth bravely to carry our burden
and face our foes we shall not sleep

the fields of Iowa.
We shall not and can not be good
company for ourselves IL we repudiate
the solemn pledges we made TO those
who sleep on Flanders field and IN
graves afar amid the hills and ravines
or the Argunne. We snail not sleep
tho peoples grow across the world.
The solemnity of the pledges We
made TO the men who died for us, who
creep about wrecks of their manhoou
in their earliest manhood can not be

what we pledg ed-that we would bear
all financial burdens Willing and glad
". that we would pay with smile
that every dollar present and future
should be behind those men. If we
turn away from any part OF tha'
promise we are bankrupt in honor.
For we pledged our fortunes and our
sacred honor against the lives those

EVIDENCE vs., POLITICS.

These seventeen men-fifteen OF
whom intended to vote as they dia
before the Investigation began-oio
not paw any heed TO the following
findings of their own special counsel
IN the investigation. II. w. Byers. who
formerly was attorney general OF the
state and who knows the law and the
evidence.-Cedar Rapids Republican.
Tut, tut. Byers advised the i'm
parchment OF Harding upon the evil
dence. He was chosen to conduct the
investigation by Harding's own frtencs
on the committee and. Of course. as
above admitted he knows the la"
and the evidence"
The committee having in charge the
investigation Of the Rathbun pardon
has gone too far. in the judgment OF
the Freeman Journal, ii recommend
ing the impeachment Of Governor
Harding. In its Indictment against the
governor as published. no charge Is
made Of corruption and no inumauon
is INDUCED in that he secured any
money for the part ne took.-Weoster
City Freeman-Journal.
Read the committees indictment ana
the "intima ton" can easily be found.
The committee leads of with the nnd-
ing that Rathbun paid 5000 for the
pardon. in currency packages II s5oo
each and that MS lawyer who got the
90 Va nv g
Office the same day the last OF the
money was paid. Then the committee
finds in the evidence that the COVER
nors secretary who saw Rathbun's at
torney had banked more money than
he could reasonably explain and that
the governors special agent and body
guard had later deposited currency in
a Des Moines bank in packages Of the
same size, to-wit: $500 each. The
evidence failed to prove that Harding
got the money but it did prove that
the lawyer who did get the money said
ne would get the pardon with the
money. that he did get the pardon in
a very irregular way, that he then
showed it TO the father of Rathouns
PARTNER in crime and offered to try for
pardon for the other rapist for the
same price. Why would group Of

stantial evidence into their Indictment

RICHMOND RED CROSS
HOME SERVICE WORK
PRAISED BY HEADS

Work of the Richmond and Wayne
county Home Service department OF
the Red Cross was praised by the re-
gional heads at the regional Home
Service Work conference held in Mum
Gle last Friday and Saturday. Miss
Flora Mae Green. secretary of that
department in this city, was present
at the conference and was called upon
number of times to explain the work
being done here, which has attracted
favorable comment in the state and
region.
Future work of the Home Service
department was the main subject OF
discussion. The work done in the va
rious districts and problems met, were
explained.
Announcement was made of an i'm
portant conference to be held at West
Baden, Ind, three weeks from last
Friday and Saturday, and 1t was urged
that the secretaries from the various
sub-regional offices attend this meet
ing. West Baden, government hos
pital Number 35, has been chosen as
the place for this work SO that con.
ferees may have an opportunity to
view the work being done in this hos
pital. The work of the Home Service
department of the Red Cross in ma
jority of cases has to do with follow
ing up the cases of the men who will
be discharged from West Baden and
other hospitals and it seemed especial
ly desirable that the workers should
meet there.
