IN THE LAND OF THE EQUAL

A washerwoman's son won the first prize in the national school
shiidren's Victory Loan poster drawing contest.
Among those thousands who drew posters were the sons and
daughters of professors, teachers, bankers, lawyers, farmers, me-
rhanies, business men, physicians, artists, editors. Many of them
came from the homes of the wealthy and the wellto-do.
But the winner lives in the little cottage home of an Iowa wash
erwomanl
Nowhere else than in America could that happen, for this is the
land of the EQUAL, the dwelling place of OPPORTUNITY. Here a
rail splitter becomes chief executive of the nation, a farm boy rises
to be the guiding genius of the countrys largest banking house, and
the teacher of a rural negro school is field commander of all Ameri

Daily Horoscope
THE stars inclined do not compel,

Tuesday, April 20, 1919.

Newspaper Syndicate.)
Good and evil mingle in this days
rule of the stars, according to astrol-
ogy. While Saturn, the Sun and Ur-
anus are all in benefie aspect. Venus
and Mars are adverse.
Unrest and discomfort are supposed
to be encouraged by this planetary
rule which makes for criticism and
'changeableness.
There is a good sign today for n
agricultural project started under this
rule. Planting should assure large
crops of fruit or grain.
The aged, particularly those who
have attained high place should bene-
fit during this configuration.
The sign is lucky for those who seek
employment, but men will be more
fortunate than women
This is not a favorable sway for love
affairs, especially where soldiers are
concerned. as they may be- easily de-
ceived.
Women should be cautious in all
business transactions under this
planetary government which is sup
posed to make them too confident and
too speculative.
The stars are read as encouraging
egotism and b~oastfulness. especially
among the young. Weakness and HUI
mility should be cultivated.
The planets presage an extraor-
binary interest In games. races and
contests of strength. New pastimes
will occupy attention and produce
profit for those who promote them.
The King of Spain should be care
full of financial and political troubles,
for the Sun close to the Square of
Jupiter in his horoscope is exceed
ingly threatening. He may find that
his throne is endangered.
During the next six months stars
that encourage fraud OF all sorts are
supposed to be in places OF great In
fiuence. For this reason thefts. rob-
berries and forgeries will be numer-
Gus and even public funds will not be
safe.
While prices OF many commodities
will continue high there will be dis
coveries Of substitutes for certain nec-
essaries which will be helpful.
