Whitley the Snowy Owl saw Just what
Jumper was trying for and he himself
did his very best in the way of flying.
He was hungry. He was very hungry.
He couldn't recall ever being hungrier
than he was right then. And there in
front of him was splendid dinner the
finest kind of a dinner. But if Jumper
reached that thicket of young hemlock
trees. he, Whitley. would have to look
elsewhere for dinner. and he didn't
know where TO look. for these were hard
times.
Jumper was within one long jump Of
that little thicket Whitley shot for
ward and down with his great claws
reaching for Jumper. From where Peter
sat it looked as if this time he surely
would catch Jumper. "Oh,, dear!" cried
Peter. And then Whitley turned sudden

edge of that little thicket and glared
down trying to see under those protect

after commingling with their con-
stituents, congressman began to have
doubts as to the necessity of any hur-
ried action. Some of them thought
it would be just as well to let the bill
go over to the next session, and
Others had doubts as to whether any
tariff bill should be passed at all.
They had heard from the country.
They learned what almost everybody
else already knew that they could not
erect tariff wall around this coun-

trade or expect debtor nations of
Europe to pay interest or any part
thereof upon their war debts to this
country.
President Harding, who advocated
a high protective tariff throughout
his election campaign, and in many
of his public addresses since, has also
received enlightenment, and, accord
ing to the public press, president
Harding now believes there is noneed
for permanent tariff legislation at
this session.

company-a vocal quartet--was fill

the hospital for several days suffering
with cold, which to one OF her pro-
fession requires more than the ordi-

baptist Honey

Several times in a week we take
visitors out to the farm to see the
new Home site, and the new building
under construction. They come from
everywhere, country, town and city.
They come from Missouri and other
states. Every one, without excep-
tion, expresses surprise and agree
able disappointment at what he sees.
We have never yet had a visitor who
was prepared to see such large, elab.
crate and complete preparations as
are being made for the accommoda-
tion of the needy old Baptists. No
visitor as yet, has come with even a
faint conception Of the splendid beauty
and fitness of the location for the
Home. Invariably the visitor goes
away saying. "If only the Baptists
of Missouri could see this, you would
have no trouble getting money with
which to carry on the work. Our
reply is, that we are trying to get our
brethren to see it. We are trying to
show it to them with onr pen. That
is what this paper is for, to hold up
the Home to Missouri Baptist eyes,
and not only to get them to see the
preparation we are trying to make,
but also to see the need for this pre-
paration. To see the scores Of de-
pendent old people in our churches
over the state who are crying to Us
for home. We are housing some Of
them now, and on their behalf we are
asking for q Thanksgiving and Christ
mas offering. Friends, cultivate the
Christlike vision, and you viii be able
to see them.

Seeing the Handwriting.
tsalen Post,

a
A few days ago President Harding
made as perfect League of Nations
speech as was ever made by any adj
vocate of the measure during the last
campaign. He said in part as follows:
"Shall mankind, then. 60 on yet for
generations, for centuries, knowing
but refusing to be guided by these
truths? Not If conscience and reason
are properly asserted. l believe the
time is come when there must be
recognition of essential cooperation
among nations, devoted, each Of them
in its own peculiar national way, to
the common good, the progress, the
advance of all human kind. Let us
hope that we stand at the dawn of a
new day in which nations shall be
stronger for contribution to the
worlds betterment because each will
feel the assurance of common pur-
pose and united aspiration and the
security of a common devotion to the
ends of peace, of civilization"
The President no doubt is begin
ming to see the handwriting on the
wall as to what will be the outcome of
the conference at Washington. The
principles of the League will be adopt
ed there most PROBABLY. By some
other name maybe but to all practical
effect the same. Either these prin-
ciples will be accepted or the Con-
ference can not get very far on the
disarmament question.

How the Farmers Faired on Taxation at
the Legislature.
mound city Journal,


When the Missouri State Legisla-
ture met the first of January there
were five million dollars surplus in
the treasury. The Legislatures, one
regular and one special, called by
Gov. Hyde, spent thirty three million
dollars. Several million Of this went
to increase the officers salaries.
Gov. Hyde said when he was maxi
ing his campaign for Governor. "That
he would lower the taxes" Aow did
he lower them? He lowered them oD
the wealthy class. The State Board
Of Equalization met in May. 1t was
composed of Gov. Hyde and the other
state officers with the exception of
of State Superintendent of Public
Schools. They raised the the valua-
tion OF farm land. Some Holt Coun-
ty land that was assessed at $50. The
first Legislature fixed it at $110 per
acre. The first Legislature failed to
lower the taxes while the special low
cred the income tax one-half percent.
Real estate and personal property is
now assessed at cents per hundred
dollars. At this rate the farmers will
pay about twenty five and two-thirds
cents instead of four and two-third
cents. All bonds, notes and money
were valued at so cents on the dollar
and assessed at IA cents per hundred
under the old rule. Now they are
placed at full value and assessed at
cents per hundred. They have low
cred the taxes on the rich and raised
them on the farm land to about 21
cents an acre. So this is the way
Gov. Hyde lowered the taxes.
The Farm Bureau and Farm Club
had man to represent their inter-
ests at the Legislature. Was it possi-
BILE for them to have done anything
or did they sleep ON the job and let
them pull one over on the farmers2
The members Of these two organiza-
tions should make fight to right this
wrong.

profession of singing, the last five
years of her life being spent in con-
cert work, giving to the public the
beauty of her pure voice.
As child she entered the Sunday
School of the Episcopal Church here,
later became teacher and was con-
firmed in the Church at Poplar Bluff,
in which faith she remained steadfast
until the end.
Her scores of friends learn of her
death with infinite sorrow, and join
in extending sincerest sympathy to
the bereaved family.

Too Much Government.
tFrom the Philade Iphia Inquirer.)

tFrom the Philade Iphia Inquirer)
| Mr.. George A. Welsh, who is
member of the Board of Education,
has written letter to the chairman
of the Elementary Schools Committee
of the board, protesting against
proposed rule which would forbid
pupils of the schools from selling
newspapers after school hours. He
does well, and it is gratifying to know
that there is at least one member of
the board who has sufficient common
sense to object to meddlesome action,
which is no concern of the school
authorities. He says that it is his ex-
perience that boys who sell news
papers in order to help needy families
need not be subject of official at
tention so far as morals are concern
ed. He adds that the compulsory
education law is being enforced and
that the board should be very care
full not to throw additional burdens
upon poor families who are in posi-
tive need Of the earnings of children
under the age of IS. The suggested
rule is only another evidence of the
present-day disposition to regulate
the lives of the people from the cradle
to the grave. The Board of Educa
ton has no more right to dictate how
a child shall spend its time outside of
school hours than it has to tell Mayor
Moore what he shall eat for break
fast. Bnt if the mania for regulating
everything under the sun is allowed
to proceed we shall have Government
officials calling for us at our homes
in the morning, supervising all our
actions during the day and finally
tucking US in bed at the hour at which
it has been officially decided we
should retire. The whole thing is
preposterous, but it is likely to con-
tinue until someone arises and calls a
halt. The notion that there is any
thing immoral or improper in work
ing outside of school hours is unique
and original with theoretical uplifters,
and if school rules against it had been
in force years ago it would have de-
prived Thomas A. Edison, Abraham
Lincoln, James A. Garfield and host
of other useful Americans of the op-
portunity of making living.
