To sit down and weep now would be
but to betray the bravery they have
shown. We must fight the little
tongues Of revolutionary fame that
are constantly darling up here and
there; we must combat the restless
ness, the discomfort; we must fight
the protiteers and the trade abuses ;
and we have equally to fight off Old,
reactionary tendencies toward slip

than last, Memorial day will be a day
on which we will consciously pledge
ourselves anew TO the ideals to which
our boys, with all America, went TO
war.
All over America there are to be
gatherings together OF men, women
and children, as II all the cOmmuni-

LIQUOR IS SCARCE
 IN SOVIET RUSSIA
By Associated Press

Moscow, October 3.-In three weeks of travel through Soviet Russia The Associated Press correspondent has seen but one intoxicated man. That was a workman in Moscow. who was so far under the influence of liquor that he was unable to tell a group of curious and thirsty men where he found the liquor.
 The new decree permitting 12 per cent of alcohol in beverages has not produced the results -bibbers and beer-lovers had hoped for. Wine eel lars have not produced hidden sup plies and apparently there are no vegetables, fruit or grain available for conversion into drinks.
 Restaurants and cafes have no al- coholic drinks for sale. There is an abundance of kvas and various non fermented drinks alleged to be made from fruit, but probably largely chemical in their composition.
 If there are alcoholic stores in Rus sia they have not yet reached the markets of Central and Northern Russia. The enactment of the law permitting the sale of alcoholic bev- erages of low grade was defended by the soviet officials on the ground that 1t was necessary to save the Caucasian and Crimean winegrow- CTS from ruin.

By Associated Press

Tokio, September 1T.-(By Mail.)--
 Japans newest religion is the Rei-
 chi i-gaku, or "Soul-intellect-kn knowl-
 edge" sect, which arose recently in the neighborhood of Yokosuka and
 now, few months after its founda-
 ton, owns and operates fleet of merchant ships plying out of Kobe to
 China ports. The shipping company
 launched by the new sect is the
 Tenko Yoko, few weeks old, but all ready said to be a competitor in the China trade that is worrying the Mp pon Yusen Kaisha.
 The God of Yokosuka, as the foun-
 der of this sect is called, was until a few brief months ago Watanabe kunka, who worked in the Yokosuka a
 Naval arsenal in the humble capacity
 of clerk. Not long since he launched out in the role of preacher and prophet of the Rei-chi-gaku religion, preaching doctrine of virtue with out regard to worldly gain said to have been the result of long years or intensive meditation. Soon he found himself at the head of large num-
 Der of ardent disciples and his "church" possessed large and swell ing income.
 He has written a volume called
 "The Light of Divine Intellect" Like Omoto-kyo the Rei-chi gaku has at tracted many naval and military men into it's ranks. naval men especially since there are many In the region | of Yokosuka, where there Is a great naval base. According to the Jap anese newspapers the Rei-chi- -gaku adherents are placing implicit conf l. dence in their leader in his financial ventures as we'll as in his spiritual | leadership.

YOSEMITE VALLEY CUT OU! BY RIVER
 CENTURIES AGO
Scenic Park ChiseIed From Living Granite of Sierra Nevada Mountains By
 Streams and Glacier
By Associated Press

Yosemite, Cal. October 27.-Out of the living granite of the Sierra Ne vada mountains. the Merced river, hundreds of thousands of years ago. first cut the Yosemite Valley, Cal'- fornia's great outdoor playground. pr, F. F.. Matthews, of the United States geological survey, declared here, after returning from recent three months exploration trip through the widest portions of the high Sierras.
 After the river made the first cut. great glacier came along and gave the valley it's finishing touches. The Merced pr. Matthes claims. made C great V-shaped gorge. and the glacier added a few curves and converted Yosemite into the U-shape 1t has at present.
 Dr. Matthes' beliefs form another contribution to the many theories re- Earding the origin of Yosemite. He has held this theory for some time and declared findings on his trip con- firmed 1t.
 Accepted theories as to the forma- ton of the Sierra Nevada mountains were strengthened by Dr. Matthcs' observations on his trip. The theory Is, he said. that 8 series of terrific upthrusts tilted the immense block of granite covering the earth to form the mountain range. Mount Lyell, the highest peak in the Yosemite Ma tional park was lifted to its present height of more than t3,o0o feet from comparatively low elevation of 5000 feet, 1t Is thought.
 pr. Matthes, on his trip. went into the southern Sierra Nevadas and covered practically the entire east ern watershed of the San Joanquin river

Grant, Andrew Johnson, Seward, Chase, Commodore Vanderbilt and other Noble men of Civil war days.
 I had a long and memorable in- terview with President Lincoln" MT. Depew writes of visit he paid to Washington in 1883, when he was secretary of state for New York. "As l stepped from the crowd in his re- ception room, he said to me- What do you want? I answered.: Nothing, Mir. President, only came to pay my respects and bid you goodbye, as am leaving Washington. It is such & luxury he then remarked, to find man who does not want anything, I wish you would wait until I get rid of this crowd
 When we were alone he threw himself wearily on lounge and was evidently greatly exhausted. Then he indulged, rocking backward and for ward, in a reminiscent review of diff ferent crises in his administration and how he had met them. In nearly every instance he had carried his point, and either captured or beaten his adYersaries by story so apt, SC on all fours, and with such com plete answers that the controversy was over. I remember II of these stories, each of which was a vic tory"

 Lincoln was always on the lookout for good yarn. although he told Depew he never invented" one. One night there was & reception in the executive mansion. Rufus c. An drews, surveyor of the port of New York and 8 confidential adviser oi the President on New York affairs attended the reception with MT. De- pew. As the procession of hand shakers moved past, Lincoln stopped Andrews and, leaning over, spoke very confidentially to him, delaying the ceremonies for some time. Mo. mentous issues were impending.
