A TEST OF FAITH
(Chattanooga News.l

Chattanooga News.)
We have frequent occasion to pro
test against the efforts OF Japan TO
Impose her dominion upon unwilling
peoples, yet we have thus far failed
TO e%xemplify the ideals which we rec.
ommend to Japan. If we should with.
draw our sovereignty from the Philip
pines, In accordance with our repeated
promises, we could the more consist.
emily ask japan to follow a similar
codrse toward Shantung. Manchuria
and Siberia. Our plea would have a
great deal more force II we could
make 1t with clean hands. To say that
the Philippines are not ready for in
dependence Is merely to express an
arbitrary, gratuitous opinion. 1t is
perfectly easy TO create conditions
In ones own mlnd-that no people
ever could comply with. Our DELAY
about respecting our own pledge is a
reflection on u national good faith
and a constant Invitation to lnterna-
uonal complications in the far east.

Horses are coming back ON the farm
and their return seems to be accom-
panied by IA period Of more economical
agricultural production, according to
observations made by ii representative
of the bureau Of farm management and
economies of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
Mr.. Olsen is in the west to begin a
comprehensive survey of agricultural
conditions. He win endeavor TO find
ont the elements and conditions that
have beer responsible for the sue
cesses hat have been made and also
those which have contributed to the
farm failures. The survey. which takes
in parts of the Dakotas, Wyoming and
Montana is expected to be continued
for perhaps Il year and other investi-
gators Willie sent from Washington To
assist Mr.. Olsen.
His belief that the horse is coming
back Is based upon MAN. instances
where he has known farmers to aban-
don tractors, leaving them standing In
the field. while horses are used on
the same place to SOW. till and harvest
the crop. This condition, he said. is
particularly noticeable along the thigh
line" counties of Montana. which he
recently toured.

WHERE'S THE NIGER?

Government statistics show that
since 1916 the consumption Of petro-
leum in the United States has ex-
ceeded production. During the year
1920 it is claimed that consumption
exceeded production by 80. 900
barrels. Experts agree in the predic-
tion that the United States will prob
ably soon he dependent upon imports
to meet our consumption needs.
Under such conditions there must be
"A great demand for oil. and yet the
price of the crude product has been
steadily falling for a year and is now
at low ebb. The result is that oil de
velopment is paralyzed and many
small companies are being forced out
of business. 1t is generally supposed
that the Standard octopus is reaching
out Its t%entacles with "A purpose.
When that inevitable law of supply
and demand starts working hat way
gets to crawfishing government
should step right in and get busy.
That's what government is for. It's IA
big %woodpile. but the Niger could be
smoked out.

t'lric unusually happy. for thcrc il also

much 70 do with this state Of affairs
the fact that her present role permits
her to wear attractive costumes.
In the three characters which Miss
Uric impcrRonatcd previous to her

were Of tho plaincst order. As Lunna

Of Paradise grass skirt pain bodice
and few hangings constituted her

AS tho Indian girl in "rhc Heart of

l--lI-7l-7177-777--'-s - LESSONS IN THRIFT

From The Thrift Magazine.
 Lessons in thrift are being taught particularly In some of the public schools and by wise leaders among boys and girls in various organiza- tions in the churches. There Is one that has a valuable library. It was founded under the leadership of a teacher who encouraged the boys to gather old rubber and bring it to the school for sale to junk dealer, The old rubber was waste. Gathered at the school, 1t was turned into money. The money bought books. charts. pie lures, all the other parts of the li- Drary and ts equipment in the school. It was a splendid illustration of what may be done when wise leader un- derstands how to organize. arouse en- thusiasm and show willing youngsters the way.
 A group young girls are members of an organization in an Ohio church It was the wish of the church that certain funds be pledged to help sup port mission the church had found ed some years ago. Funds in excess
 
 were needed to make the work more comprehensive, to secure better re- suits. The girls were under the dl- rection of prudent and thrifty woman who has much of pc etsoual in itiatlve. She suggested what could be raised if the girls collected old newspapers and magazines Esti- mates of what could he done were made and the girls pledged an inn portant part of the funds required. Then cthe collection of newspapers and magazines was started. Receipts have been more than has been esti- mated. The girls will meet their pledge, and the funds will come from collections of material usually thrown aways or burned. These practical les sons of thrift have an immediate value and promise great things for the future.

HEATING IN OLDEN TIMES

From "Construction of the Small
 House-Methods of Heating" by H.
 VI Walsh. In Architecture.
 The heating problem for the small house was for our ancestors very simple mechanical device, consisting, as we all know. of either the fire place or the stove. The former meth cd still has a charm which we are not willing to dispense with. although we do not dpend upon it's efficiency to do the actual work of warming, but in- stall some more complicated system, such as a steam heating plant. to per- form the practical work. A fireplace has sentimental and intellectual warmth that no radiator can supply.
 Even the stove has certain fasci- nation for many, recalling cold win try nights when the family sat about the red -hot casting, the women knit ting and the men burning their shoe leather arAi smoking. Some advo- cates of the stove are so energetic In their arguments concerning the efficiency of this method of heating that one almost doubts the defects which lead inventors to manufacture other devices. But the housewife knows the labor of shoveling coal into three or four stoves, knows the great clouds of hot fine ashes which rise into the atmosphere and settle upon the selves. the tops of picture frames, and the polished surface of the piano.
 And the investor saw the tired worn look of the housewife, removed tho stove to the cellar and installed tin pipes from thiS central heater to the various rooms, and then waited for applause and purchasers.

Chattanooga, Tenn, July 17.-(Spe- ciaI)-Birmingham came near hav- ing another game snatched awy in the ninth inning today, but with four runs over, men on second and third for the Lookouts and the Barons barely leading by to 5. Doc Newton went Co the rescue of Wheeler, and Neiderkorn popped to Traynor for the last out. The contest was rip ping good ball game for five in nings, pitching duel between Wheeler and Noel.
 After the locals tied the score at one all in the fifth, the Barons seemed to think it incumbent upon them to go out and sew up a bali game. They mixed in few hits with some Lookout errors, poked little fun at Graham on the bases and piled up . lead of to l, every run of which proved to be needed in the ninth inning rally of the home clan.
