HORSE A PRACTICAL JOKER
South American Physician Tells Of
Quadruped With Well-Developed
Sense of Humor.

Have horses a sense of humor? A
South American doctor has one which
Is said to be fond of a practical joke
Visiting a farmhouse, the doctor
tied the animal to a post near which
hung a rope attached to large bell,
used as a dinner signal for the work.
men. Then he went in to see his pa
tent.
A few minutes later the bell rang
violently. The doctor looked out, but
could see nothing. Again the bell
rang. At the third ring the doctor
concealed himself behind tree in
the yard, and kept watch on the bell
rope
Then, to his establishment, he saw
his horse lift up his head, seize the
rope between its teeth, and give 1t a
violent pull. After that the doctor
sprang out and faced the animal,
which put on look of complete limo
cence.
Poking his nose into a basket In
which cat lay curled up, the same
horse got a nasty scratch from pussy
for his pains. The animal, taking
careful aim, kicked the cat and basket
sky-high and then trotted off with a
low chuckle of glee.-Brooklyn Eagle.

The Healthy Eskimo.

IT is said that the Eskimos of the
remotest north are the healthiest peo-
pie you can find anywhere. Contact
with white folks has, however,
brought deterioration and demorallza-
tion. The influence of civilization has
been bad, and may be worse; it may
even result in the extinction of the
hardy race. Only when they are left
wholly to their own devices are the
Eskimos healthy, and this is indeed
remarkable, for their devices are few
and the hardships Of their lives are
many.

ROBERT WARWICK AS AN iCEMAl AT THE LIBERTY

Have you often wondered what makes the iceman so proud and naughty? Don't censure him. Per haps he's an Archduke in disguise and can't help acting natural" Rob ert Warwick is that kind of an ice man in Jack Straw" his new Para mount Aircraft comedy picture, which is coming to the Liberty theatre to night He falls in love with one of his customers, the pretty daughter of hard-working clerk. Later her father gets money and her mother gets royalty-crazy and they go to California to live. Jack Straw fol lows and becomes a waiter. Then he is palmed off on the mother as the "Archduke of Pomerania," and wonder of wonders! turns out to be. that self-same person.
 Carroll McComas is the. leading woman, and J. M. Dumont. Sylvia Ashton and Charles Ogle are also, in the cast. William De Mile. directed the picture, which was adapted from w. Somerset Maughham's stage May

MISSION BOARD
 TO INACCURATE
 SOME NEW WORK
Superintendent of Schools for Presbyterian Church
 Visits Sitka.


 Miss Edna R. Voss. superintendent of schools for the Woman's Board of Home Missions of the Presbyterian church, returned from visit of in spection of the Sheldon Jackson school at Sitka yesterday. Prof. II A. <McKean, superintendent of the latter together with Dr. and Mrs Condit, accompanied her
 Many plans for the improvement and enlargement Of the school at Sit ka are under consideration. One ad vance step is along the line of ex tension work. It is the hope of Miss Voss that the schbol may be abla tc reach outlying communities. and es pecially the canneries and other places where natives are employed with representatives from the school who shall supervise social and com nunity welfare work during the sum. mer months. In order to carry on this work it is planned to provide a suitable boat for the use of the school l
 Another matter under consideration is the improvement of buildings ald equipment. The Woman's Board tx. bends in the neighborhood' of $50.- 900 annually in the upkeep of this school This appropriation is made because of the conviction that the training of the young native people in educational and especially in vo cational lines is the most inlror tant contribution which can be made to native advancement. It is the earnest purpose of the Womal' s Board to train young people fo, native leadership. The foundato l principle of this training, in the esti nation of the Board, is christian character.
 The Sitka school is but one of more than one hundred stations under the care of this Board These are scattered all over the United States as well as in Cuba, Porto Rico and San Domingo.
 Miss Voss returns to the states on the Princess Mary and after meeting engagements along the coast will re turn to New York where the head quarters of Presbyterian mission work are at 156 Fifth Avenue. She expects to reach her office by the first of July.

The preservation Of friendly industrial

either side.
Those employers who arbitrarily
enforced wage reductions are doing
more to destroy the very necessary
industrial relations of the future than
they realize. Having reasoned accord

age, it seems not to have occurred to
them that the employees are smart-

The present trend of industrial dis
putes is reactiOnary. A large mea.
sure of unemployment causes cer4
tain employers to- seek advantage by
arbitrary action, without regard FOR
Or consideration of the right of fair
existence of employees.
In pursuing their own selfish in
terests, it is very easy for them to
convince" themselves that they are
right. That is only human. The law
Of self-interst always says. what
ever is to my interest is always right"
Therefore, some employers, either
moved by rank selfishness or de-
ceiving themselves with the idea that
their personal advantage is to public
benefit, have sought to put wage ,e-
ductions into effect regardless Of the
merits of the case and ignoring all
questions of future industrial rela-
tons.
Speaking as one who. for many
years, has worked to promote peace
full relations in the shoe industry, the
writer regrets to note the tendency
to revert to former conditions Of in
dustrial war that now seem to pre-
vail. In my judgement, the relations
between employer and employees must
be in the future, as in the recent past,
something different than the old time
conception of master and man. \

ilabor's effort has made is not to be

On the merits Of these reductions,
we contend that the alleged reduce
tfon in the cost of living is more
theoretical than real. Government re-
ports tells us that while reductions
In wholesale prices have been quite
pronounced. reductions in retail prices
have been very trivial indeed, so that
wage earners, buying at retail. are not
able to realize the published reduc-
ttons in wholesale prices
For the latter statement we have
no less an authority than the Presi-
dent Of the United States. In his le-
cent message to Congress, President
Harding said that the reduced prices
Of wheat and cattle had not given the
consumer: q proper reduction in the
cost Of bread and meat He also said
that retail prices in general were in
excusable, and that he had asked the
Federal Trade Commission to devise
some fair method Of measuring retail
profits and prices. .:.S .:.S ~ ), = i
In these. statements the, President, is
entirely right. If a mans wages have
been increased SO per cent and his
cost Of living has been increased lis
per cent. he Is very likely worse off
than before, depending somewhat upon
his margin Of saving 2ot, his former
wages. B: :7si lid. g. r.;

their sympathizers. = 10000 strong,

pose Of driving out them Baldwin,
Feltzers''-private detectives and
guards employed by the operators.
The Governor, Morgan, who is new
to the job and who was supposed,
when elected. to be in sympathy with
the miners, seems to have faltered
with the: situation and allowed it to
set beyond him. His orders to dis
perse were ignored. Martial law was
declared The Governor appealed to-
the federal government. President
Harding's order to disperse met with
no better success until the federal
troops actually arrived on the scene,
when the miners gradually scattered
to their homes taking most Of their
firearms with them. s ..,t..' Il:
The emergency seems to have passed
but all the causes OF the trouble re-
main. The miners claim that the
