"a UPER-PREsIDENT IN Mr.. BARucH"

Barney Baruch-whoever he
may be-" said Senator Sherman OF
Illinois, recently in the senate. Rep
resentative William ]. Graham Of ILL
nois, chairman Of the house war ex-
penditures committee, evidently has
more information regarding Bernard
M. Baruch (portrait herewithC At
any rate, he said the other day, among
other things:
Barney Baruch had more power
during the war than any other man
in the world.
Barney Baruch controlled abso-
lutely the food supply of the United
States.
Barney Baruch originated the
price fixing policy for all commodities
and put 1t in operation.
Barney Baruch regulated the
production Of steel, copper, and iron,
and decrced their disposition.
Barney Baruch had supreme au-
thority over the by-products Of the

SCHROEDER WILL TRY TO FLY HIGHER

Just about the first thing Maj. X.
w. Schroeder Of Chicago, said when
he came to in the hospital at Dayton,
was that he was going higher next
time. The major had inst flown to
36,O2O feet "a new record), and had
fallen more than five miles while un-
conscious for two minutes, landing
with eyes frozen shut and in a state
Of collapse. The immediate cause of
the flyers troubles was the exhaus-
ton Of his oxygen tanks. His instru-
ments show that he exceeded Roland
Rohlrs world record by SOTO feet,
and that he encountered tempera-
ture of 81 degrees below zero.
It thus appears that Major
Schroeder. was actually humping
around In what the scientists jocu-
larry call the ''roof of the world"
They assert that there is a mysteri-
GUS, intangible roof to the world,
where the thermometer stops falling
and even begins to rise.
Major Schroeder was dressed hea,

JOHN SHELL, 1871, "AIN'T DEAD YlT"

"Uncle" Johnny Shell, who is 60
ing on his 1920 year, does not pur-
pose to be bossed by any "upstart"
father-in-law, by heck. A few days
ago. the second wife of the worlds
oldest man, young woman in her
thirties, died at their mountain home
on Hell-Fur-Sartin creek, in Leslie
county.
"Uncle" Johns six-year-old son,
his. constant companion since the lit
tie fellow was old enough to walk,
was all that was left to him. He
would be a comfort during the short
period left for him, the old mountain
eer told his neighbors.
George Chappell, a man in his
sixties, is "'Uncle" Johns father-in-
law. He took charge Of his grandson
and started home with him. "Uncle"
John was too old, father-in-law held,
to take care Of the boy. He should
be sent to school.
His protests going unheeded

Answer That Was No Answer.

George NJ. Cohan was cross-examin-
ing applicants for parts In one Of his
new productions.
"Can you dance" he asked Of a
young chap who had been waiting an
hour.
'Sure," replied the candidate.
'Can you sing?" continued COhan
"Well," replied the other, II can sing
as good as you can."
But I asked you," retorted Cohan,
"can you sing?"

WHY "voTEs FOR WOMEN IN 1e2o"7

Congress, not long ago, was quite
seriously discussing the apparent need
of the nation for regent during the
period of Mr.. Wilson's disablement.
Congress isn't making conversation
on this subject nowadays. Anything
farther is likely to take the form of
apologies to the first lady of the land.
Anyway, revised reports from
Washington concerning John Barton
Payne's new honors have it that the
former head Of the shipping board
was invited one pleasant afternoon to
call at the White House. Mrs. Will
son received him, poured his tea,
asked him how many Jumps and in
cidentally remarked that the presi-
dent wished to appoint him secre-
tary of the interior. Judge Payne
succeeded in stirring the fragrant
orange pekoe without spilling a drop,
and in accepting the position before
the sugar melted.

Germ and since that time the two
organizations claim that they have
been without heat n could not hold

and entertainments as a public hall.
When the factory came here, Totem
