WHEN HE LOST HIS LIBERTY
Pathetic Figure Presented BY Lonely
Man Standing Prominently Be-
~ Ill fore Large Assembly.

He stood in the packing building, a
small, lonely figure, pathetic in the
isolation that shut him of from the
warm humanity OF the watching
crowd. &
He felt weak, Ill, but he struggled
to bear himself bIAvely. He could
not move his eyes from the stern,
white face that seemed to fill all the
space in front Of him. About that
cold minatory figure, which was speak
Ing to him in such passionless, even
tones, chung an atmosphere of awe;
the traditional robes OF office lent 1t
a majesty that crushed his will.
He knew he was being addressed
ind strove to listen, says London
Punch. His brain was torrent OF
thoughts. And so his life had come
to this. It was indeed the final ca
tastrophe. That was surely what the
voice meant-that voice which went
on and on in an even stream Of sound
without meaning. Why had he come
to this-in the flower Of his life to
lose Its chiefest gift, liberty?

behind-did they care? A few, per-
haps, pitied him. The others were
indifferent. To them it was merely
IA spectacle. y5,s. s s-sy
Suddenly into his mind crept the
consciousness Of a vast silence. The
voice had stopped. The abrupt cessa-
ton Of sound whipped his quivering
nerves. It was like the holding OF a
great breath. sSS5 &ss fr4s5

that the huge concourse waited. a
question had been put to him y

Remarkable Wills

Every schoolboy knows that the
reading OF the will Of julius Caesar
marks turning point IN the play Of
that name. According to Moham-
medan tradition there IS will OF
Adam in existence. The tradition as
serts that no fewer than seventy
legions Of angels brought him sheets
Of paper and quill pens, nicely nibbed,
all the way. from paradise. and that
the archangel Gabriel set to It MS seal
as Witness 1t is estimated by COM
mentators that 10000 sheets OF paper
were brought down on which Adam
could write his bequests. Noah is
also said to have made a will in which
he divided his property. the earth,
into three equal shares, one for each
son.

members of The Board OF Education
are practically gratus, the pay of a

fact but to cover The expenses OF at

WHY CONGRESS MOVES SLOWLY

There appears to be a great deal OF
unnecessary and unjustified perturba-
tion over the difficulties attendant
what Is characterized as the admin
istration's program of constructive
legislation. There are alarmists who
would have us believe that not only
Is the Republican party headed
straight toward certain shipwreck. but
that the country itself is dangerously
near the rocks because OF failure OF
the congressional majorities speedily
to agree upon and put through the
revenue. the tariff and other pending
measures.
1t is very much to be doubted II
President Harding and those assO-
ciated with him in responsibility en-.
tertain in measurable degree any of
these doleful apprehensions. They
know. as do the leaders in Congress.
that once slegislation is written into
the statutes II. is not Judged by the
length OF time necessary for its enact.
ment, but by It's effects for good or
i'll upon the welfare OF the nation.
| Many men and many interests are
impatient that this measure or that
should become law. but when the final
vote is taken and the presidential
signature attached they will forget
their impatience OF today IN eagerness
to know how their personal fortunes
are to be affected. Fret and fume as
we may. we all know In our hearts
