LETTER FROM MISS ELIZABETH
 WELLS
Hyderabad Deccon, India,
 February. 24. 1920.

FeDraary, 21, 192O. Dear MT. Nichols,
 The shoes reached us about 10 days ago and we are delighted with them. In behalf of all the missionaries who were benefited by your kindness. wish to thank you sincerely for your trouble and help. Mrs. Luin wrote that the two pairs of shoes she bought for her son would out-wear seven pairs of shoes made in this country. Many, many thanks
 The Bubonic plague is bad here in the city now. It is almost impossible to get the truth of it but the Doctors think about 300 cases some say more. People sueeumb to it every day. Very few seizures ever recover. Influenza also is prevalent. besides a maIig- nant malarial feve~, so very little mis- sion work can be done.
 The hot weather has begun and the sun is very fierce these days. The climate here is very hot and ener- vating. As I have had several attacks of fever lately I am hoping to get away soon to spend the hottest sea- son in some hill station. It has been many years since I have taken a real vacation.
 Again thanking you and with kind regards, I am
 Yours sincerely,
 Elizabeth Wells.

The board has no power to enforca decree or DO power to punish tha breaking of an award, but it is be- ileved that decision of this board. after all the disputed points are ironed out, will be of character to com mand the respect not only of the en- ployers but also the employees. and will have behind it the support of the public
 The original Cummings bill pro- vision had behind it an enforcing clause. There are a number of organ izations now which operated under an arbitration agreement. The fact that there is no enforcing clause in these agreements is rather an incen- tive to both sides to abide by the de- cisions rendered.

Thoughts Of the Today
Air and Water.

Our rivers have become so polluted
that it is unsafe to battle in them, and,
as for eating fish taken from them, 1t
is unthinkable. Like Mark Twain's
bad weather, everybody complains
about it, but nobody does anything.
Now we are proceeding to befoul the
air with the most poisonous and dele
terious gases. We erect tall chimneys,
thinking that. these gases will be dis
persed in the upper regions. but such
is not the case. In wet weather these
gases become heavier than the air,
and they fall to the ground level.
There are tall chimneys at the foot of
the Palisades, and their smoke floats
along the top of the hills or crosses
the river to Riverside drive, which is
about level with their tops. 1t is not
the old fashioned black smoke that is
so dangerous. 1t is the pale blue smoke
that comes from the worst offenders.

600 copies of Il questionnaires to other

WE said: "They would make no use of
them after they had their answers"

end of the article. My, what Il re-
sponsibility falls on us leaders of

ize how widespread is our influence

Mind Your Own Business.

The average citizen is so immersed
in his own affairs, "minding his own
business" that he gives little or no
thought to public interests. Every en-
gineer will tell you that the railroads
of this country cannot possibly carry
the freight that should be carried and
that there is immense waste and loss
caused by the lack of transportation.
Only by the development of canals can
the situation be met. But the railroads
themselves are Tin the nature of
things) enemies of canal transpOrta-
ton, and they are forever trying to
block the construction of canals and to
nullify the usefulness of those that ex-
list. Here is something for the people
to consider. Every man, woman and
child in the country Is affected. 1t is a
great field for the political trickster-
so easy and so safe.

Extremes That Don't Meet.

Do you Republicans and Democrats
realize that you are something between
an anarchist and n Socialist? Now,
don't get mad, but follow this reason
ing. You are not anarchists who be-
lieve in no government at all? No,
you say. You are not Socialists who
believe in everything being done by the
government? Why. of course not.
Well, then, you must be something be-
tween these extremes.

Time SAVING.

I go to work by the old time and
come home by the new. This is day
light saving of an hour every day for
me. How Is it the farmers don't adopt
the same system? Then we would not
have our watches differing from the
clocks in the railroad stations and the
time tables. Nobody knows who hasn't
experienced it, the mental worry and
anguish caused by trying to catch a
train, rushing into the depot and to
the gate at the last moment, and then
finding there is an hour to wait.

Baaj Worshipers,

The Kaiser and his worshipers set
up stuffed image that they called
"Gott" which has been toppled from
its throne with the Kaiser, and now
there is not German in existence that
will acknowledge that "GOtt" or do
him the slightest reverence. Never
once did the Kaiser exhibit the spirit
of the lowly Nazarene. He was all
brag, buster and bullying, and his sub
servient subjects initiated him. The
world has an illustration of the Scrip
ture truth that pride goeth before de-
struction and naughty spirit before
a fall" Shall we cultivate that
naughty spirit?
