She wore high necks and long

Her skirt was very long and her toes
peeped In and out like tiny mice, we

Monday with the customary brlef ana
routine opening sessions, which were
attended by great crowds, and marx
ed by an address in the senate by
President-elect Harding as unique
and historic feature. Senator Hard
ing took his seat, answered his name
when the senate roll was called and
made a brief address from the ros-
trum.
The features Of the opening OF the
third and final session of the 66th
congress were receipt of annual ap-
preparation estimates. aggregating a.
$50 100000 and Introduction in the
house Of an unusual volume of new
bills and resolutions.
The senate was in session twenty
five minutes and the house just twice
as long.
Adding a unique page to the ma
tons history, Presidentelect Hard
ing attended as senator the opening
of the senate, and in a short address
bespoke for the coming four years
spirit of teamwork between execu-
tive and legislative branches that he
expects to insure the highest nation
al efficiency in public affairs at home
and abroad.
Mr.. Hardings address In the SEN
ate was in response to an ovation
that greeted his appearance for the
opening roll call, and was delivered
at the suggestion of Senator Lodge

ed the suggestion by leaving his place
and escorting Senator Harding to the
rostrum.
Visibly affected by the courtesy
shown him by his colleagues and by
crowded galleries, the president-elect
voiced deep regret at the surrender OF
his associations of six years, includ
| ing both democrats and republicans in
| this tribute of affection and respect
| for his fellow senators. He termed
campaign charges of senate oil
garchy as harmless fiction" and de-
clared that as president he would re-
| gard both senate and house with high
esteem, but without a thought of any
surrender of coordinate constitutional
authority.

THE TWENTY-DAY FARM.

Henry Ford told an interviewer that farmers
have never been properly paid for what they pro-
duce and they spend far too much time producing
il.
with all ordinary crops hfteen to twenty
DAYS "a year all that is necessary If the work
ers are equipped with the necessary imI dement's.
We have proved that to our satisfaction on our
own farm Of 10000 acres here AZ Dearborn
The interviewer was impressed but not convinced.
He says he took the scheme to level-headed
farmer in Illinois. The man sustained the PROPOSE
ton. lie said:
"A great deal Of the farm work be done
in a few days We are renting farm that
do not spend more than twenty or thirty days

Everybody knows that the average farmer has
spare time in the winter. but most people think
Of him as oyerworaed in the open weather. There

Il is that farms and factories are to work together
A big factory is TO be set down in a farm region
He would operate all the farms within several miles

all these managers highly qualified superintendent

thirty. according TO the Illinois man-would hardly
be missed from the factory work. ard having
enough skilled labor and machinery would do grea-
things for the production of food The interview
ers conclusion is that
Some things that seem quite visionary on
first acquaintance finally turn out eminently
practical Thousands of people said the tractor
would never get anywhere but it has Others
\ condemned the automobile. the motor truck

Anyhow the combination of farm and factory
labor is suggestive. Why not let the farmers do
