the Ninth Missouri district, PRESIDENT CleVe-
lands second administration was beginning
with deep-seated forces Of political and eco
nomic reform dmly astir in the country,s con-
sciousness Thoughtful and disinterested men
knew that something was wrong IN the rela7
lions which a lengthy, well-n1gh unprokeh
lease of Republican power had permitted 10
spring up between government and seekers
of special privilege. They knew that the
nurging processes which had started during
Mr.. Cleveland's first term and which now
were resumed must be continued upspaclng-
ly until the alliance of corrupt politics M
constituencies business was broken asunder
The movement to that end suffered dlVers
Interruptions and was not substantially ef-
fective until far into the ensuing decade.
But effective it finally was, and among all
who labored to make 1t so Champ clark
stood with the specially faithful.
The second great period in which he fig
ured fell within the wonderful years OF the
Wilson administration. He was then Speaker
of the House of Representatives, and, al
though opposing the President on some issues,
he labored invaluably for the party's and the
countrys welfare. No heartier tribute ever
came to one in public life than the good will
and affection with which he was regarded by
his colleagues, Democrats and Republicans
alike. However much they might differ with
him in policies and politics, they recognized
his sterling integrity and his generous human
spirit. Keenly will he be missed in Congress,
in the councils of Democracy and in the lives
If all who knew him.

BACK YARDS
By H. Addington Bruce


r TGLINESS still is rampant in the aver
| age back yard. This is a fact which
impresses itself with uncommon
force on every observer who, from the van
tage point of railway car or street car, gets
a panoramic view of many back yards, par
ticularly in approaches to cities.
Fences in a state of dsrepair, heaps of TIN
cans, piles of ashes, litter of all sorts sur
mounted by drying clothes-that is what
back yards too often show. Or, if 1t is sum-
mer time they may display tangle of weeds,
accentuating rather than diminishing their
essential ugliness.
You know how true this description is. No
doubt you yourself have often marveled at
the distressing appearance of most back yards.
OF course, clothes must be hung out in the
back yard to dry. That is a primary reason
for back yards. But often it is possible-as
it always is desirable-to dry them behind
trellises or he'd ges that will make the dry
ing process unobtrusive so far as the general
public is concerned
And there never is a good reason for con-
verting back yards into refuse receptacles.
Whereas there are many reasons for not do
ing this-aesthetc reasons economic reasons
and hygienic reasons.

The London Evening Star announces
that Mrs. Terence MacSwiney, widow of
Lord Mayor MacSwiney, of Cork, is en-
gagged to Art O'Brien, vice president OF
the Irish Self-Determination league and
president of the London branch of that
organization.
Lord Mayor MacSwiney died in Brixton
prison, London, October 25, following
hunger strike of seventy-three days. Dur
ing MacSwiney's Incarceration Mr.. O'Brien
furnished the newspapers with almost
hourly bulletins of the condition Of the
lord mayor and worked strenuously for
the lord mayors release. In this work,
says The Evening Star, he necessarily
was thrown much into the society of Mrs.
MacSwiney.

The Squirt1ess Grabefru1t

WRITER in the Kansas City Star will
~ find the taxpayers Of the nation are
with him heart and soul In his sug-
gestion that, in its next appropriations bill,
Congress include a. sum for research and ex-
pertinent to the end that science produce the
squirtless grapefruit.
Millions Of people, half-blinded by the saw
age attacks of the grapefruit when transport
ed from its native lair to the breakfast table
and bestirred by spoon, will cry with de-
light at this movement, and by writing let
ters to their Senators and Representatives. in
sist that some of the thousands of dollars
lying around loose in Washington be devoted
to demonstrating the fierce and barbarous
fruit
Long-suffering housewives, still persisting
in their efforts to tame the fruit by extract
ing it's deadly seeds and rendering it COM
paratively powerless by ham-stringtng Its
sinewy tendons, will pledge their votes to
whomsoever supports the bill. Thousands
of husbands, grown prematurely gray In
wrestling matches with sturdy grapefruit
that have resisted even the housewifely hand,
will urge the passage of the measure and
support an amendment calling for special in
VI
grapefruit with flat ends, thus doing away
with rolling, pitching and similar boisterous
actions of the fruit when attempts are made
to subdue 1t on the plate.
Many, doubtless, will favor an appropria-
ton leading to the sweetenizing of the grape
fruit step that will go far toward prevent
ing another sugar shortage. This might be
accomplished by mating the grapefruit with
the thoroughly docile prune, a breeding
which might also provide wrinkles that
would prevent the fruit from retreating when
seized, and would likewise give the taxpayer
a grip for his combats with the fruit.
Seldom ha7 Congress hit upon a happier
idea or one more appealing to the rank and
file of its constituents than this subjugation
Of the grapefruit For years the dining pub
lie has been at the mercy of the grapefruit,
never knowing what moment it would issue
from the kitchen in all it's sour and elusive
strength. At home they have been able to
fortify themselves against it with plenty of
armament and wealth of napkin tucked un-
der the chin. But too often has the unsus-
pectng diner-out, innocently beguiled by the
hotel menu into the belief that grapefruit
imperial betokened a thoroughly tanned and
broken fruit, found himself brought face to
face with yellow devil in its most irritable
and uncivilzed state, while he, poor wight!
was totally unarmed and must fight desper-
ately that his honor and his shirt go I'M
stained
Once the grapefruit is domestcated to the
point where it can be handled without fear
If its squirting at one, the rest will follow.
Eventually the day will come when the grape
fruit can be eaten out of ones hand. When
it will join the apple, the pear, the melon and
other one-time savage fruits that have been
brought under mans domination in an amen
able and contented company

Woodrow Wilson
- HERE leaves the White House {

T HERE leaves the White House today,
after eight years of struggle and
achiev. ment, noble maker of Amer
lean history, valiant prophet of world
freedom and goodwill Few Presidents have
faced issues 30 diverse, so grave, so cease
less in their billowing onset as has Wood
row Wilson, and none has gr4ppIed them
with sturdier sineWs or higher Heart.
Even hau 10 such names as Lusitania,
Chateau Thierry and Versailles flung their
vast shadows and beacons athwart his
course, still would his administration live
as an unforgetable chapter in the repub-
lies development. For within his spar of
office and largely through his leading, the
liberal impulses in American politics, those
that make for cleaner government, fairer
dealing and for the common rights of the
rank and lie, came to a wider conscious
ness than they had known for half a CEN
fury, to 3urer purpose and to substantial
power. These were the forward forces and
his the wise craftsmanship that brought to
pass the largest store of remedial and con-
structive legislation ever e1acted within
one Presidents term. Tariff revision that
broke through strongholds of tyrannous
privilege, encouraging fresh enterprise as
we'll as lifting burdens from the people;
banking and currency reform that proved to
be the country's saving fortress against the
financial shock and strain of a world war;
antitrust laws that dealt sOberly yet effec-
tually with wrongs which had waxed for
decades and were Sitting out the spirit of
free initiative in busness-these are meas
ures so far-reaching in their import to the
common interests that any ne OF them
would suffice to make an administration

ing peaks in a range of legislation that left
scarcely nook or corner Of the trOubIous
issues Of the time untouched and unhelped.

Hobnails Costly

Henri Dequis, a manager Of the Ho-
tel Crillon, in Paris, explained recent
ly his $125,8 70.S2 bill for damages SUI
fered by the Crillon while the Ameri-
can peace commission was staying there.
The commission, he explained, was
guarded by 200 doughboys, each with
two feet and each foot adorned with
shoe which contained a score or so of
hobnails. Each doughboy dumping
through the hotel during a period of his
assignment walked about 1928 off the
floors and carpets, he said.

over a same period of time. 1t is true
that an organization of pine lumber
manufacturers exist. But the govern
ment has been challenged to prove
that a price list exists. There is hard
~ a class of manufacturers or produc-
ers or professional men who are not
organized for the general benefit OF
the organization of business as a
whole. If the Southern Pine associa-
ton by reason of its existence is a
combination in Restraint of trade, then
there are many other organizations
occupying a similar position, granting
that the denial of the existence of
price lists is true.
Senator Calder need not extend the
scope of his activities so far to the
southland to find an object for at

his own constituency and having per-
formed this service he might then ex-
tend his activity. The lumber indus

Of the south are two> of it's main art
cries OF trade. Both have suffered
greatly in the slump incident to re-
adjustment, but If Senator Calder had
his way the cotton growers would in

W.ANTEEprA ROMEO.

Wanted--An America Romeo who
can act. Apply to Laurette Taylor,
Cort theatre, New York.
Miss Taylor, who is playing peg o.
My Heart" at the Cort. theatre, New
York, confesses that she intends to
make another Shakesperian produc-
ton in the near future; that Romeo
and Juliet is her choice, and that she
is handicapped by the lack of an
American who can play the part,
speak the lines and look the charac-
ter.
American men do not make the
best romantic stage lovers" said Miss
Taylor the other day. "Oh, they can
make love excellently off the stage
but somehow they are a bit reserved
when before people. They seem to
hold all their ardor for private use
not for moments on a balcony before
hundreds of people. When l again APP
pear in Romeo and Juliet l fear that
will have a hard time finding an
acceptable American Romeo, unless
John Barrymore will let me play with
him. He is such great artist that
he could really be Romeo"
Miss Taylor made an experiment in
Shakespeare at the Criterion theatre,
New 1ork, couple or years ago. 1t
was her first encounter with the I'm
moral Bard, and she stood the expense
OF 1t herself. The result, judging by
the consensus of the criticisms, was
q draw.
Il was a little puffed up then" she
candidly confesses. $50 many people
had said so many nice things, that
thought that l knew-well, everything.
I'll admit that l do read criticisms.
All the critics said that my Katherine
in The Tanning OF the Shrew' was
not lady-like.
Il tried TO argue with some ofathem
privately. telling them that Katherine
was ho* den. Then 1 saw that
had flouted great Shakesperian ira
dition-that the public was accustom-
ed to a lady-like Katherine and I
couldn't change its views"
