The Baden was one of the battle

JUST LOOKING FOR BUSINESS
Profit Was a Decidedly Secondary
Consideration With This Re-
markabIe Mississippi Negro.

Allen ]. Krebs. a native MIssissip-
plan. who lives In Atlanta. has a story
he likes TO tell about an old negro
friend who came TO him one day
when he lived in Mississippi and
asked for a loan that would enable
him TO 90 into business.
"Ah been workin' fur somebody else
all NAH life" he said, IAN All wants

Krebs, Il think that is laudable am
bition. and / am going to help you.

something for yourselves. What are

"NNell, sur" said the old man.
Frightening considerably, ''Ah fms All
kin buy wood cross de ribber at a
dollar cord All All has 10 do Is to
lighter 1t across and sell it right here
in dis town."
AS wood was selling at So cord
IN Natchez, Mr.. Krebs thought favor
ably of the venture and let Uncle Billy
have the $500 to start the business.
A month. later Mr. Krebs went down
to the riverfront. and there was Uncle
Billy just arriving with lot of splen-
did looking wood
"How are getting along, Uncle
Billy:. asked MIR. Krebs.
'Des fne.s des fine. cap'n," he re-
piled.
"What are you gettin' for wood like
that now?'
"Ah git a dollar 'er cord" answered
the old man.
"Why, you idiot" said Mr.. Krebs,
"don't you know you can't pay dol
lar n cord for wood, bring II across the
river and sell it at profit for dol
lar n cord?"
"Lawd, Cap'n Krebs," responded
Uncle Billy, engaged in one of those
bewitching smiles that characterize

EVEN IF DADDY ISN'T THERE"
Little Girl Remembered to Offer Up
Prayer for Protection to the
Firemen.

There came to the kindergarten
little new girl, who was as shy as
she was pretty. Demurely she FOL
lowed the other children around the
room and when they began building
with blocks she sat and watched
without saying word. The teacher
was wondering whether or not she
could coax her TO talk. when The fire
bell rang. Instantly the tot was on
her feet.
There's the fire bell, teacher" she
said, excitedly. Count the rings,
won't you?"
And, to please her, teacher counted
and reported the call. With look
of happiness on her face the little
girl sat down.
THAT isn't my daddy's firehouse
number" she said, softly, "but I'll have
TO pray minute SO none of the 9th
er fremen get hurt"
For a few seconds her little head
was bowed and her lips moved. When
she came back to her blocks she ex-
planned to the teacher:
Mother and / always pray for
them, even if daddy isn't there. In

And he did. A week later a broad
band of black outlined the front of

A couple of years passed. Then
one of his neighbOrs. stopping TO speak
to Joe, found him gazing up at his lit

perplexity.

black grows little rusty. You VIII

"Yessuh," said Joe. "Daisy Moore,
she says it needs one other coat or

DAISY Moore. oh! But has she
said another coat OF black paint,

"Uh," grunted Joe, and then his
look of perplexity vanished In a slow
grin. "fs going to ask Der tonight"
he added briskly.

MedicaI Use Of Radium.

The popular supposition that most
of the radium now praduced is being
used for luminous wntch-dialS and
similar devices is contiadicted by Mr.
Hamilton Foley, Of the Standard
Chemical company. of Pittsburgh, who
writes:
Last year this company produced
over Is grams of radiun, and of this
amount only II grams went into
luminous material. All of the rest
went into the hands of the medical
profession. This company has made
more than half of the total supply of
radium available in the world at the
present time. and its first thought is

HOUSE TO DEFER KNOX
PEACE ACT FOR SOLU-
TON OF DEBT CRISIS
Complies With Request of Harding
and Hughes.

Washington, May Passage OF
the Knox resolution by the house
will be delayed until after the Ger
man reparations question is settled
or the present critical situation IL.
Europe is relieved.
1t was strongly indicated that re-
qttest for indefinite delay had beeH re-
ccived from the White House and
state department. This accounts tor
the failure of the house this week to
take any action on the resolution
which was approved by the senate
last Saturday.
Interviews with house leaders plain
ly reveal the fact that they fear the
effects of the final enactment of the
resolution upon the situation OF Eu-
rope.
1t is apparent also that, since the
policy OF the administration is to er-
ter more into European affairs, the
wiser course would be to delay the
resolution until first hand reports OF
the allies toward it are received from
George Harvey and Ambassador Wal
lace, who have been designated 20
sit with the supreme council and the
council of ambassadors respectively.
The long long fight for government
regulation OF the packing industry
seemed certain Saturday night to sue
coed at this session OF congress.
Members who have pushed the res
ulation measure during the last t,w
sessions, believe victory is sure this
wear.
This confidence came from the de-
cison OF the scratc committee on as

L ort one OF three bills before it mex.

A greater agriculture through a
more general adoption of diversified
farming was urged by Mohler and
he told the feeders that thousands of
tons OF feed are now rotting in Kat
sas because of lack of live stock to
eat this feed.
Kansas farmers would acting

animals of quality. Substantial head

culture must come through more at
