SUPPRESS SOCIALISM"
IT'S DANGER OF HOUR

Rev. Samuel H. Blair, Of Kansas
City, Mo-, spoke to a gathering of the
Am. Legion members and friends in
the Court Room, Tuesday evening.
His subject was "Americanism and
the Problems of Reconstruction"
His address dealt, largely, with the
duties of the American government
and people-to their home peoples
first, and then to rest of the world.
He emphasized the need of carrying
out the spirit of the Monroe Doctrine,
setting in order the warning Mexi-
cans to our south, and the setting on
foot move to make democracy safe
on the Western Hemisphere.
The speaker did not fail to call at
tention to the many evils in our own
land at this time calling for suppress
sion or forcible emigration. Boil
shevism, he said was bad, but its
mother -socialism-is the root of
the whole evil. The audience was
we'll pleased with the whole address
and often cheered the speaker with
much enthusiasm,

LABOR MEN TO STRIVE "
TO ELECT IT'S FRIENDS

For the first time in the history of
the country labor, lead by it's many
organizations, has signified a deter
mination to make stiff fight for the
election of it's men-or at least men
favorable to the workers-through-
out the country. The men are to be
organized politically, but not as a
labor party.
Labor has been learning things
since the world war began and the
leaders now feel that the time has
come to profit by this newly acouir-
ed information. The policy in this
campaign is to be, "boring from with
in;" making fight for workingmen
and friends of workingmen, but to
make the fight within the ranks of the
old parties, with which they are now
largely associated.

FIVE GA. FAMILIES
HAVE USED UP liz
BOTTLES OF DRECO
EVERY MEMBER TAKES 1T AND
ALL SHOW GREAT IMPROVE.
MENT. SPLENDID TONIC FOR
OLD AND YOUNG.

A remarkable thing came to light
recently, when through the endorse
ment given the great tonic Drcco, by
Mr.. j. r. Applng, the well known
merchant and farmer Of Lexington,
Ca, it was discovered that five fami-
lies living in his ncighborhooi had
used up one hundred and twelve bot
ties of Dreco Every member of the
family from the oldest down to the
youngest took it and all show improve
ment.
Speaking of his own case Mr.. APP
pling said: "Dreco did me Il great
deal of good in bad case of const-
patton and liver disorder. 1t started
my bowels to acting at once and it
was easy, normal and healthy, too.
No pains, straining or gripping about
it. My liver also began to act, and
that relieved my headaches, dizzy
spells, spots dancing before my eyes
and that vile taste in my mouth.
"l'vc told lots of people about Drc-
co and do believe all the folks around
Lexington are taking, it now. It's good
and put my stamp OF approval upon
i it," .....t...
After taking Dreco it is noticed the
| bowels begin to act regularly; the
complexion clears; the appetite in
creases, nerves are quieted, sleep
becomes sound and restful; the kid
neys are strengthened food digests
without annoying gas and bloating
The whole system takes on renewed
vim, vigor and vitality. Try Dreco one
week and watch the change.

OLDEST CODE OF LAWS
From the BrookIy

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
 90 HAMMURAHI, who reigned in IN Babylon for 43 years about
 1000 years before Nebuchad- nezzar, left code of laws which has been partly preserved. But the trans lations of Nippur tablets given out by the University of Pennsylvania invest igators, as made by Abbe Schell of Paris, show a code perhaps a thousand years older than Khammurahi's and rather more nearly complete. This is ranked as the most valuable discov- cry of the explorations begun in 1889 by pr. John Henry Haynes and Dr H. V. Hilprecht on the immense ruins at Nippur. 100 miles southeast of Bag dad. as a source of information about the old Sumerian language and civil ization. Next in importance was the Sumerian version of the Deluge tra- dition, with Ut-Napishtim as Noah. which was published in 1910.

of Henry George scheme of preventing any property from remaining idle is uncertain. It doubtless indicates that some of the problems of 1920 were aI- ready in existence. Personal and prop erty rights are treated about as Moses treated them. As to slavery, fairly mild provisions obtained. though the institution was bolstered up by penal ties for harboring escaped slaves. If slave woman bore children to her master she and they became free. Here is the germ idea of the Roman doctrine that a child. free or slave, follows the status of the more fortunate parent The Romans, however did not free the mother, and our American system of slavery freed neither.
 One thing needs to be borne in mind. Nippur under the Sumerians was a sacred city, devoted to En-1il, 'the Lord of Storm Demons.p It had no po- litical independence, but like the Sa- cred City of Thebes under the Egyp- tians, probably had freedom to make local regulations such as the priests might determine on. There can be no certainty that the code just trans lated affected all the Sumerians. Yet the discovery of it's matured form is a vast contribution to human knowledge of the beginnings of jurisprudence

HOG JOWL AND TURNIP GREENS

 MT. Wingo-Who ever heard of turnp greens being sold by weight? The gem tleman does not know turnip greens from jimson weed.
 MT. Layton-Oh we had jowl and tur- nip greens before the gentlemans state was settled"
 To call laws which measure mans ap- petite damned foolishness" may be ad- judged to be unconstitutional; any way. this we know, that it is not pretty, yet the statesman who used the language is to be forgiven much for directing atten4 ton to. the delight and beauty of hog jowl and greens. It is a dish of great food value. handsome dish, satisfyina at once the appetite for food and t1e aesthetic passion for art. In an older day there was a little res taurant on Pennsylvania avenue. about midway of the long journey from the cap tol to the White House. where jowl and greens were prepared by an ebony chef and served by a bronze Adonis. Almost third of century ago four senators much unlike in politics, social antecedents and book learning, became friends, pals. because of an almost equally intense Iik- ing for the dish MT. Wingo so properly celebrates.
 When the Senate adjourned the pro- prietor of the little restaurant but caught sight of the four approaching. he called to the chef, Hog and for four!'' Then,' after assuring himself that a certain senator from C-l-f-r-ia was, as usual. in the group, he called to the bronze Adonis: And. boy. four quarts of champagne in the ice tub!'
 good, sound, wholesome meal and in- ducive of much cheerful talk the senators seemed to find in their hog jowl and greens.

From the Sun and New York Herald 1T UsT before office hours end, when III one is beginning to anticipate in
 reveries the joys of dinner. it is enough to make the mouth water to read what the Hon. Ottis Wingo of De Queen county, Arkansas, says on even so hum- drum a bill as that regulating weights and measures.
 'It says" explained the honorable gentleman, referring to provision in the bill. that in the District of Columbia "kale, spinach and other similar leaf veg etables," shall be sold by weight:
 "It says that if you go to the market, greens-because I am fond of hog jowl and turnip greens-I must have them weighed, although I do not want them weighed or buy them by net weight. 1 want to buy them in the customary way that you buy them on the curb from the from the farmer. You tell me that you have to weigh up mess of turnip greens that farmer has, and that he must have a pair of scales! How on earth would tell how many pounds I wanted?
 "Mr. Layton-Oh, the gentleman would soon learn.
 MT. Wingo-That is the trouble. when- ever the federal government, whenever Congress, undertakes to say that a man must learn how to measure his ap- petite and to buy his turnip greens by net weight, contrary to lifelong custom and common sense. then you present what said once before on bill of this kind it is damned foolishness gone to seed.
 MT. Layton--I think the gentleman will find that turnip greens are being sold now by weight.

THE ELM

From Contemporary Verse. The mountaip pine is a man at arma With flashing shield and blade; The willow is a dowager, The birch is a guileless maid, But the elm tree is a lady
 In gold and green brocade. Broad-bosomed to the meadow breeze
 The natron maple grows: The poplar plays the courtesan
 To every wind that blows. But who the tall elm's lovers aro
 Only the midnight knows. And few would ever ask it
 Of such a stately tree. So lofty in the moonlight. So virginal stands she, Sharing the little silver fish
 That swim her silent sea But hush! A hum of instruments
 Deep in the night begins, Along those dusky galleries
 Low music throbs and thins- whispered sound of harps and flutoa
 And ghostly yiolins For what mysterious visitor
 Do all her windy bells Ring welcome in the moonlight
 And amoror farswells? The elm tree $ a lady.
