SCRIPTURE
Psalms BELLA

The heavens declare the glory Of
God; and the armament sheweth his
handiwork.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and
night unto night sheweth knowledge.
There is no speech nor language
where their voice is not heard.
Their line is gone out through all
the earth, and their words TO- the end
Of the world. In them hath he set a
tabernacle for the sun.
Which is as a bridegroom coming
out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as
a strong man TO run race.
His going forth is from the end Of
the heaven, and his circuit unto the
ends Of it; and there is nothing hid
from toe heat thereof.
The law Of the Lord is perfect, CON
verting the soul; the testimony Of the
Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
The statutes Of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart; the command
mentment Of the Lord is pure, en-
Tightening the eyes.
The fear Of the Lord is clean, ep-
during forever; the judgments of the
Lord are true and righteous altogeth-
er.
More to be desired are they than
gold yea, than much fine gold, sweet
er than honey and the honcycomb.
Moreover by them is thy servant
warned; and in keeping Of them there
| is great reward
Who can understand his errors
cleanse thou me from secret faults.

fabulous cities, tales Of whose wealth
had reached Mexico City via the In
dams. These stories were corroborat-
ed by one Cabeza de Vaca, who had
been shipwrecked on an island off the
Texas coast and who, gaining the
mainland a year later, only to be
seized by Indians, finally escaped
with three companions and, after
years of wandering through the wilds
found his way back to his own people.
On the journey he had heard Of north
ern cities incrusted with turquoise
and paved with gold and silver.
1t was these that Mendoza expected
Fray Marcos to find. Accompanied
by a negro who had shared De Vaca's
experiences, and by some friendly
Pima Indians, the brave friar Jour
neyed through Arizona to the Iuni
country. Stories of the treasure he
might expect to find increased in
promise as he progressed. But sudden
ly, when he thought himself within
easy reach of the promised land, word
came from ahead that his advance
guard had been murdered by hostile
Indians Lacking support, moral or
material. the friar became discouraged
and returned empty handed to Mex
leo City.

Keep the boys on the FARM is the
cry from public speakers, magazine

the country. "We must stop this
wholesale exodus to the crowded cit

well-meaning people overlook one of
the fundamental causes of this drift
to the cities. Farm boys would stay
ON the farm if there was not some
thing radically wrong, and if you in
veStigate the case of the young man
who leaves his father and mother to
live in the great crowded city. you
will almost invariably find that condi-
tons existing about his home were
such that he could not help but leave.
Very often it is the drudgery which
he was forced to endure because of
Anticipated methods in the farm build
ings, and very frequently it is the
farm home that is directly RESPONSE
BILE. Too often this important factor
in farm life has been neglected, too
often it has been merely shack or
shelter with little convenience and
comfort If more farm homes were
built on a modern basis there would
be little need for propaganda, articles
and speeches to exhort the boy to
stay at home. A comfortable home
would be the most powerful attrac-
ton that could be offered

POST GETS ARTISTIC RANGE
CHICAGO Organization Acquires Use of
Famous Worlds Fair Field
Museum Building.

The American Legion will soon have
the use of a building known to mil
lions in America as the embodiment
of beauty in art and architecture, the
old Fine Arts building of the 1893
Worlds Fair The crack of army
rifles will be heard in the famous
structure, for it has been turned over
to- the Hyde Park post, No. "a, of the
Legion in Chicago, as an indoor rifle
range.
The large edifice, known as the old
Field museum after the Worlds fair,
was evacuated with the completion of
the new Field museum. Various or
CARNATIONS of Chicago Immediately
besieged the park commissioners for
permission to use the building, but
the Legion posts request alone was
granted.
Legionnaires now have a rifle range
de luxe, one that will tend to erase
the veterans memories of sweltering
days, shivering days and cold, moist
days spent in trying to locate the
bullseye on the armys outdoor fir
ing points. The building is so large
that a 200-yard range was established
without difficulty, along with the
shorter distances.

BOOKS FOR DISABLED HEROES,
Congress Appropriates 100000 for
Reading Material for Soldiers
Confined to Hospitals.

Disabled heroes of the World war
are not to be without good books to
read while they are fighting to regain
health in the hospitals of this coun-
try. Congress has appropriated in the
civil sundry bill the sum of 100000
for the purchase of books, with the
result that each of the $4,000 disabled
veterans will soon have three or four
new books to read.
The American Library association,
which still has charge of the libraries
in the larger hospitals, has been EN-
barrassed by a shortage of funds, and
up to this time posts of the American
Legion have taken over the duty OF
supplying books to the disabled in
hundreds of the smaller hospitals. The
appropriation by congress does not
mean that either the services of the
American Library association or the
American Legion in this respect are to
be dispensed with, but that they are
to be greatly augmented and rein
forced.

sides insuring a good supply of nat.
ural light and fresh air. 1t is con
nected with the dining room by an
open doorway. The dining room is
about the same size as the living
room. 1t is connected with the kitch-
Ell at the rear by a swinging door
and also opens into a size hall at
the right.
The kitchen is one that will delight
any housewives heart. for it is small
and compact, but ample for every
need. At one corner is small pam
try, Immediately adjacent is the wash
room which can be used as laundry,
if SO desired The bathroom. modern
in every detail, is located off the hall
which runs from the kitchen to rear
bedroom. Off the main central hall
running along the dining room is an
other large bedroom, is by 10 feet
inches All of the bedrooms, Of
which there are three, have excep-
tionally large clothes closets. The
front bedroom, u by 13 feet, off the
front reception hall, also opens out on
to the sleeping porch, which is 8 feet
6 inches by 10 feet. This sleeping
porch has window walls on three sides
and should be an excellent place to
sleep in the warms sultry summer
months.
A home like this should be the rule,
not the exception, on the farms of the
country today. Gradually this type
is gaining foothold and we look for
ward to the time when such thing
as propaganda to keep the boys on the
farm will be unnecessary. Home
comforts are being emphasized in both
city and country because the impor-
lance of the home in community life
is recognized. More and better homes
are what the people want and this Is
certainly the case in rural centers.

Panama Tolls Will

Wy ASHINGTON.- legisla-
wv tion exempting American ships
from the payment of Panama canal
tolls is likely to call forth some heavy
debating at this session. The senate
committee on interoceanic canals, of
which Senator Borah is chairman, has
before it the Borah bill, exempting
American coastwise ships, and the
Jones and Poindexter bills, exempting
all American ships from canal charges.
The Republican national platform
last year for the first time declared
for toll exemption for all American
ships, but Senator Borah thinks that
In view of the opposition it will be
easier to put through a bill applying
to coastwise ships only.

pital, Washington, for more than
year, he found out what the govern

special representative of the bureau OF
war risk insurance.
In army and navy camps he was in

insurance. In Michigan last Novem-
Der, as field representative of the war
risk bureau, he directed a cleanup of
hospital, insurance and compensation

all others in welfare accomplishments.
During the campaign he investigat-
ed the condition of ex-service men in
the state prison at Jackson and the
worked with the Legions welfare de-
partment to cause the parole of 80
men last year to the Legion. He OBJ
tanned 100000 in funds raised during
the war and used it in settling claims,

NATIONAL, CAPITAL

Cause Big Debate

Senators Borah. Knox and most 9TH
er advocates of toll exemption hold
that such legislation would not be in
contravention of the Hay-P auncefote
treaty with Great Britain, under
which the United States built the
canal. They contend that the provi-
sion for equal passage terms to the
ships of all nations applies only to
the ships of all nations other than the
United States.
President Harding favors toll exemp-
ton, but has indicated that it should
be achieved through new under
standing with Great Britain.
Last year the canal earned $1O,295,-
362 in tolls. Of which 81, 724, 494 was
paid by 1881 American ships; $685.
357 by SGT British ships; $5S3,643 by
122 Japanese ships, and $411,4 by
III Norwegian ships. A total of 2,S14
vessels, representing more than 10 ma
tions, passed through the canal.
The maintenance cost, including
100000 for betterments, was $7,44S,-
272 leaving a surplus of $2,S47, 600.
Of the 16,324,O24 tons of all Ameri-
can shipping, 3,9S6,755 tons, or less
than one-fourth, passed through the
canal in 1920.
