AND THE SENATOR SUBSIDED
Edison's Rejoinder to Statesman Who
Had Corrected His Pronuncia-
ton Was Crushing.

Thomas A. Edison, whose question
naire TO college graduates excited
good deal of wrath in college circles,
can hold his own with anybody.
Once at n dinner in New York a
learned senator from Harvard took
Mr.. Edison to task for prOnOuncing
the word "curator" in the Scottish
way-the inventor is of Scottish Pres
byterian descent-with the accent ON
the first syllable.
"Mr. Edison" the senator said, at
Is the usual custom to pronounce this
word curator, following the analogy
of the Latin, in which tongue, us
you're doubtless aware, the penultl-
mate syllable is long"
THANK you,' said the great in
NentOr. Il suppose you know, how
ever, that it is the Scottish custom TO
follow the analogy of the English, and
10 accent the word on its first rather
than its second syllable; but of course
bow to the authority of so learned
IL senator and so eloquent an ORA
tor as yourself"

May Be Relieved.

Writing in the American Legion
Weekly on Seeking the Cure for I'M
employment" James j. Davis, secre-
tary of labor, sums up the cure In a
single paragraph as follows:
"Wage earners can help by giving
up unreasonable demands, so that en-
ployers can afford to start their mills
again, or so that buildings can be
built-houses. schools, factories,
stores. Merchants can help by giving
up unreasonable profits, so that more
people can afford to buy clothing,
furniture, food and general supplies.
The landlord can help by lowering I'M
reasonable rents, so that wOrkmen can
AFFORD to accept wage that shall be-

The doughboy colony is in Scott
county. Most of the settlers will be
able to call the land their own in sew

years of war service to count on the
residence requirement.
Some of the men will spend the win.
