the repeal of Panama tolls, the ship ping act. the child labor law, the pur chase of the Danish West Indies and federal aid for good roads.
 The federal reserve law is poten- italy as great piece of constructive legislation as any that has been en- acted In this country. We were abso- lutely without a financial system. and the money of the nation was in the irresponsible control of a few big banks in New York.
 Every attempt to remedy this situa- cial interests naturally wished to keep their control of the money. The Aid rich bill in the Taft administration proposed to give the sanction of law to this private domination. hut con- gress refused to pass it.
 The federal reserve act simply re- verSed the Aldrich plan and gave the nation through the government, the control of it's own money,
 President Wilson was the relentless driving force that pushed through the federal reserve bin and the rest of the legislative program.
 The electric spark was omitted from President Wilson's composition, and this omission denied him flowing communication with his fellows, A nat ural limitation which was confirmed by the life he had led until he was suddenly thrust into the hurly burly of politics.
 President Wilson has been lonely figure in the White House. He came to the presidency a stranger to public men. and no president can make new friends-real friends,
 His reelection was one of the big surprises Of our presidential elections. For several hours after the polls | closed he appeared to have been badly beaten and Hughes went to bed with the assurance that he was president elect.
 After all the great industrial states which had decided the elections in the past, except Ohio had sent in reports of Republican victories, the tide was turned by the far West, which had been almost forgotten in the reckon ing, but where the conservative inter ests had less influence. At last the returns from remote hamlets in the Sierras gave California to the presi- dent by less than 4000 plurality. He had lost all but two of the northern states east of the Missouri, and yet won by carrying all but two of the states west of that river, where the women voters are supposed to have rallied to him because nc kept us out of the war;"

Energy in the Atom.

The Knowledge of radioactivity, which has been growing since the dis covery of the X-ray and of radlum. has revealed the atom as tremendous storehouse of energy. The atomic en- ergy contained, for example in the two-inch piece of chalk with which the lecturer makes his diagrams is calculated to be 30O,OO0O0O foot tons enough to raise 100000 tons 5000 feet. At present we do not know how to liberate the power.

FACE TELLS TRUTH
Not InfrequentIy Reveals Ones
 Calling to Observer.
Characteristic Look 10 Partly Oevsi. oped by Nature Of Work Which
 Is Individuals Occupation.

It seems to be pretty well agreed
 among those in a position to speak
 suthoritatively that associated with
 the various occupations in life there
 is undoubtedly type of face which more or less betrays the calling of Its owner.
 Medical men. especially in hospital practice. find acquaintance with these types valuable. They may not be able,
 with the shrewdness of Sherlock | Holmes or of other acute persons, to read a mans past present and future by a glance at him in the street. but they are able to gauge with consider able accuracy how far the history Of the case, as given by the patient. IS truthful one. and how far if fits with l his probable occupation in life. Calling must certainly have some in- | fuepce over the physiognomy of the l cabman, the butler or the groom. Each | frequently possesses a type Of face l which wears so characteristic an ex- precision as 10 make it not difficult to | identify the vocation accompanying 1t. ! We speak also of the legal face, the musical face, the dramatic face and the | military face. This is merely broad l classification, and the best authorities l disbeleve the claims of the keen ob- l server that he can differentiate 10 a | finer degree.
 There are tales of hospital physi- l cians who claim to be able 10 say from l a glance al the Sace that this or that | man is butcher. q grocer, bank l clerk, a lawyers clerk, commercial 1 traveller. q stock broker. and so on | Ii is thought that the fame of these medical men as rough and ready de | tectives has been largely manufac- l tured for them by enthusiastic friends
 But that many medical men do possess | great ight into the occupations or those who come before them is true.
 The question Is often debated wheth
 CT phN siognamy is growth of voca- | lion or whether it shows that the yo-
 cation chosen is in accordance With
 the particular capacity and ability of
 the person 10 whom 1T belongs. In
 other words. if the lawyer does not
 show the legal face" the aspiring
 minister the "ecclesiastical face. the
 medical student the "physicianly face" :"
 he soldier the military face, the l question arises. Is that sign that
 they have mistaken their calling?
 Is the man who doesn't look bit l like doctor likely to fail because
 his pbysiognomic qualification is want | ingt 0r will he whatever his original
 features gradually come to acquire
 the type of the profession to which he l belongs?
 The answer ro the c estion is. Of
 course. that both theories are right. A
 certain kind of face, the sO-called
 scientific face is so often seen among
 medical students as to prove that the
 owner Of that east of cOuntenance is
 likely 70 adopt medicine as career. Conversely whatever the original cast
 of fea lures medical man may have
 possessed. the anxious delicate and
 absorbing work of medical practice
 will pun stamp upon them.

ANNUAL STATE TAX CONFERENCE TO BE
 HELD DECEMBER l9

Issuing call for a conference, the state tax commission recently notified the assessors of the IA counties of the state that the annual event had been set for December 19. The date has been advanced a month earlier than usual owing to the new automobile law which requires the county asses sor not only to collect the tax on the motor car but issue the license and collect the fee which has heretofore been the duty of the secretary of state. A detailed discussion of the law which provides that the assessors handle the automobile business was deemed advisable before the first of the year, when the 1922 licenses will be issued. Ernest R.

"Country No,o O.
 Ubgrade" :"

The year 1921 was described as "one of liquidation" and the year 1922 was forecast as "one of recuperation' by Secretary Hoover at the annual convention of the United States Pot ters' Association.
 "The country has passed the worst stages of depression and is now on the up -grade", he said.
 Activities in the construction indus try, he declared, were signposts of conditions. This industry for three months, he stated ,has revealed ex- tremely encouraging indications.
 MT. Hoover expressed the belief that a too libral interpretation has been applied to the phrase, Keep the government out of business" When the phrase was coined, he explained, it applied to getting the government out of the operation of railroads and ships, but, he asserted, there were many lines of business which need the cooperation and assistance of the government. Export trade, he added, was primarily involved in government tai assistance and service.-Los An geles Times.
