LETTERS TO EDITOR
Anti-League Arguments
To the Editor of The Age-Heraid:

To the Editor of The Age-Heraid: 'Ignorance,' says the old adage, 'is tho mother of prejudice" and says another: "Give dog bad name and hang him." So it is with the League of Nations and the attitude of certain class of Ameri- cans towards this all-important question. I mean that class of people who are dis posed to condemn everyone and every thing standing in favor of the leagues adoption. The bad name attached to the presidential proposition by the opponents of the administration is largely due to ignorance of the principles of Christian cf arty. It is supposed by the ignorant all that the sophist urges against it, wild dream of altruism destined to sac rifice the rights and principles underlying the constitution of the republic
 There is also a prejudice against 1t, because no immediate gain is offered by it's terms to blatant politicians. Not only is it an agreement that brings no large returns to the average politician, but it's very tenor. it's frankness contrast them selves unfavorably with the many ef- forts of recent times, which so far at least as concerns the establishment of an enduring peace, have done so little to bring the nations of the world, together in peaceful accord.
 In advancing arguments it has to be answered that discussion certainty need not degenerate into meaningless and ma licious criticism; for dealing with sub- ject that concerns the very essence of our constitution, which every voter must of necessity understand, common sense is quite competent to discern the benefits of the Fundamental ideas embodied in the covenant, and to reason out their moral and national significance. Next, it must be answered that, though the League of Nations does not appear at the first view to serve petty domestic interests, yet it
 
 of selfishness, and forms in itself lofty purpose not of course in accordance with any jealous political design, but the greater end, namely, the establishment of lasting peace based on the principles of Christian charity in which all are made partakers of without regard to race. creed or color. Yours truly,

Greedy eagerness filled the, little eyes of Buster Bear as he stood up and put his great arms around the dead tree, which was the second Beetree Farmer Browns boy had found It was a very old tree, and it had ben dead slong time. Also Buster knew by the sound when he struck it that it was hollow for most of it's length. It was a tree to pull or push over and not to climb.
 Buster hooked his great claws into it and pulled with all his great strength. He heard the dead old roots creak and crack. Then he pushed with all his might. So, pulling and pushing and push ing and pulling, Buster worked and the tree swayed this way and that way. It creaked and cracked and snapped, and finally it went with crash that split it right over.
 Right then and there Buster Bear for got all his troubles. Yes, sir, Buster Bear forgot all his troubles. He forgot everything but the feast before him. open Buster found 1t packed-simply packed-with masses of honey-flled comb. Talk about greediness! You should have seen Buster Bear.
 With his great paws he scooped out honey comb dripping with honey and crammed it into his mouth With 1t went lot of bees. but Buster didn't mind. He didn't mind in the least He ate comb, honey, bees and alL Of course he was stung, for of course those bees were aroused and angry. But it was night and cold and they were cold and confused. Buster paid no attention to them at all. He didn't mind them, any more than if they had been so many tiny black flies. He could have stood ten times as many stings for the sake of that delicious gold en honey. To be sure. he growled 8 lit- tie and whined little when he was stung on some particularly tender place, but he would simply slap at that place with a sticky paw and go right on stuffing himself.
 Such a sight as he was! Honey was smeared all over his face and paws and oy CT a good part of his coat, for that matter But he didn't care. No, sir he didn't care. He was happy, as happy as it is possible for a Bear ever to be- Could you have watched him you cer- tainly would have thought that he must

ASKS EXPLANATION
How Can Harding Be Interpreted to Be 90 Per Cent, Queries Hinshaw
By Associated Press


 Chicago, October lSsE-Virgil c, Hen. shaw. chairman of the prohibition na. tional committee, today made public a letter asking pr. Clarence True Wilson of the Methodist board of temperance and public morals at Washington. to explain how you could interpret Hard ing to be 90 per cent" The letter urged him to obtain a declaration on the Vol stead act from both the republican and the democratic nominees.
 You are reported as stating that Hard. ing voted while senator, s1 times dry and once weti' MT. Hnshaw said. We discover that he voted aotimes vet and two times dry.
 We have repeatedly written and wired both Harding and Cox urging them to make public statements that they would. if elected, use their influence to prevent the increase of alcoholic content in bev- erages. They have either turned a deaf ear or refused our request in each in stance
 You will do the country . favor if you will get either candidate-to make q public declaration that he will use his veto power to prevent any increase in the alcoholic content in beverages. Unless you can do this we will have to conclude that the only dry candidates in the cam paign are Watkins and Colvin.'

 pc hollow all the way through For once he had all the honey he could eat, and ne intended to make the most of It. There was no doubt about that; he in- tended to eat every bit of it
 And he did, too. He kept right on eating even after his stomach had be- gun to swell out like balloon. He ate and ate until there wasn't particle ot honey left. Bites of stick and dead leaves went into his greedy mouth, but he didnt seem to mind He didn't even take the trouble to spit them uut.
 At last there wasn't a drop of honey left. Buster drew a long breath, licked off his coat and paws as well as he could and then began to think of a nap. You know a full stomach always makes one sleepy. Being so full he was uncom- fortable. He didn't feel at all like mov- ing about And so he simply walked to the nearest thicket of young hemlock trees and there, with a great sigh of contentnent. he laid down and in no time at all was sound asleep.
