NATIONAL LEGISLATION

The continued fight over tn ratifica-
tion Of the treaty of Versailles, with
the League Of Nations covenant, re-
sulting in rejection Of the treaty for
the second time. occupied the atten-
ton Of the United States senate during
the early months Of 1920 and monop-
olized the attention Of the public, SO
far as congressional action was con-
cerned. The Cummins- Esch bill. un-
der which the railroads Of the country
operated after their return to private
control, and the army reorganization
bill were the principal pieces Of legis-
lation enacted before the first regular

30. The following day the rejected
treaty was sent back to the President.
With no prospect Of the early adop-
tfon OF the treaty, resolutions declar-
ing the war at an end were Introduced

olution. President Wilson vetoed this
resolution. however. on May q.

ures. with the adjournment Of con-
gress. On the day before adjourn

Hapsburg Liebe (Charles Haven
Liebe), a native of the Tennessee
mountains has been soldier, timber
jack and sawmill man. In his educa-
ton he was denied even the little red
school house, his alma mater being a
log structure in the hills which he
left by way of window at twelve
years of age. But he had a taste for
reading and has acquired fine COM
mand of English and writing style
through study Of the best authors.
At seventeen he commenced writing and
turned out eighteen stories, all rejected
oy the editors. He was almost discour-
ased; but his nineteenth effort stuck with
a respectable magazine. Lack of educa-
uon made the way doubly hard; but now,
Wnen ne sells all he writes, he will tell
cost -
Gritty! indeed he Is! At eighteen he
joined a regiment for service in the Phil
lppines Time to entrain found him i'll

Farm Life Looking Up.

A noted writer declares that
in time the lonesomeness of farm
life will be done away with, and
that tilling the soil will become
a popular vocation.
He might have said that much
of the lonesomeness has already
been banished, and that the re-
mainder is rapidly disappearing.
The automobile has done it.
There is no need for the far
mer or his family or his help to
feel lonesome these days.
Distance no longer exists for
him.
With his car he can be in town
at any time within a few min
utes. He can visit his neigh
bors for miles around any even
ing after supper, while attend
ance at church on Sunday and
social gatherings at other times
require but little more effort
than is consumed in walking
around a city block.
His life in many ways is pref
cradle to that of the city dWeller.
His health is enhanced by the
sunshine and the pure country
