know is raising $33OOO,OOO to relieve the starving
children of Europe, of whom it is estimated that
there are approximately $500 600.
Albuquerqueans who are DESTROYS of contributing
to this worthy cause referred to Mrs. j. T. Nc
LaughIin, local chairman, who will inform them
as to the most convenient means of getting the
donations into the hands of the proper officials.
There is still time to help.
That the neediest and most undernourshed shall
be fed first is governing principle of the European
Relief Councils operations in Poland and other
war-ravaged countries of Europe.
While local doctor has a place on each district
child-feeding committee in Poland and his opinion
is considered in determining who the neediest
children in the district, the real deciding factor is
mutual control between families" as writer in
the current issue Of the American Relief Admins
tration bulletin terms it.
1T is not so much according to a plan of med
ical and physical examination" this article con-
tinues, that children are chosen, as it is that
children who gain entrance to the kitchens arc
largely selected by popular opinion The slogan
that food is to go only the needest children
has been thoroughly impressed throughout the
relief system that it is known by practically every
person in the country.
when, therefore, lists of needy children are
made up in any community it is most largely the
element of mutual control between families which
decides to the children of which families shall
receive aid"
Newspapers of this Lemberg and other sections
of Poland reflected in their editorial comment the
thankfuness and amazement of the Polish people
when they learned that $50 persons in New York
had accepted the invitation of Herbert Hoover to
pay $1,000 each for plate at the Invisible Guest
luncheon recently held there for the benefit of
European children.
The proceeds went toward the European Relief
Councils fund.
The Gazeta Poranna, of Lemberg said
THE description of the unusual banquet given
by Herbert Hoover in New York moves to the
most heartfelt gratitude. The generous persons
who were present there to the Invisible Guest the
starving child in Europe, have again given their
aid to procure food for our own children
How great the need of this help is we best
know who have before eyes the pale faces,
stunted growth and sunken eyes of the underfed
little ones, be met with here among all classes.
We know how much children owe to the Am
erican Relief Administration, which for nearly two
years has bestowed gifts upon country
Thanks to the generosity of the American cti-
who present at the simple meal in New
York, thousands of portions of food will be
distributed to our hungry children"

OUR NEXT FOREIGN MINISTER.

President-eect Harding's definite announcement
that Charles Evans Hughes is to be the next secre-
tary of state will be received with approval by the
entire country.
As profound thinker and a keen legal
soner, Mr.. Hughes Has few peers in the United
States. There is every to believe, from his
record as governor of New York for two terms
associate justice of the supreme court of the
United States and special assistant to the attorney
general in charge of the aircraft inquiry, that he
will make brilliant, if not spectacular, chief
of the Harding official family.
Hughes lost the election for president of the
United States because of his inability play to the
grandstand. While this inability might hinder his
success a politician, it will not interfere with
his efficiency a statesman And it is
statesman that the head of foreign office must
be judged.
Furthermore, he will not have to labor under
the handicap that confronted his Wilsonian prede-
cessors He will enjoy the unbounded confidence
of his chief who will not judge him according to
the promptness of his amen but according to the
Independent acumen he displays in handling his
portfolio,
In other words, unless present indications are
wholly deceptive, Mr.. Hughes will be real adviser
to the president, instead of a clerk a rubber
stamp.
America need have no fear that her cause will
suffer in the international arena with such man
in charge of her diplomacy.

Then, very rudely. the Alligator
snatched the. fountain pen from
Uncle Wiggily's paw and began
looking at the ink stick.
What does q pen like this do?''
asked the Skillery Scalery chap.
And then before the bunny gen
tleman could answer, up from the
pen shot a shower of ink. Right
in the face of the bad Alligator
spurted the black ink, making him
look like q coal man.

what it does! This is too much for
me! I never knew fountain pens

and jumped out of the window, 81

Then the bunny got some blot

off the floor, and after that his

We all know how much we
like to have a guest say, at our
table what is this? It's per-
fectly delicious!" We enjoy the
knowledge that we have served

menu contains several unusual
dishes, and is delicious enough to
place before a guest:
Olives
Egg Croquettes

many eggs as you wish to have
croquettes. Remove the shells
from the eggs, cut them in half

butter to them Gust enough to

two halves together until there
are as many stuffed eggs as
there were hard-boiled eggs.

Happens. Sometimes the black ink
spurts out lust like fountain in
the park, ana it gets all over my
paws, as you see.
Again, not a drop of ink will
come from the pen, and I have to
take a burned stick to write with,
as l did before Grandpa Goosey
gave me this. But still it seems to
be working all right now-perhaps
because I'm telling you about it.

letters"
Il wish you would write one for
me, Uncle Wiggily," begged the
muskrat lady. My paws are all
dough, for ! am making a chocolate
cake. Just write and tell Mrs. VIII
bewobble, the duck lady, that I'll
be over to see her tomorrow and
we'll go to the movies together"
"All right, I'll do that" promised
the bunny gentleman. Il must put
some more ink in my pen, though. "
Uncle Wiggily brought out the
bottle of ink, and with little med
icine dropper to suck up the ink
from the bottle and squirt 1t into
the hollow handle of the fountain
pen.
There, now, I am ready to write
my own letters and Nurse James
also" said Mr.. Longears, as he took
the fountain pen in his paw and
pulled his chair UP to the table. Il
hope my pen behaves and doesn't
leak on my pink nose, or squirt up
like Fountain he said to himself.
Uncle Wiggily was just going to
write to Mrs, Wibblewobble for
Nurse Jane when, all of a quick
ness, he heard a noise behind his
chair and, turning, he saw the bad
old Skillery Scalery Alligator with
the humps on his tail.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago. Feb. 24,-Bears had an
advantage in wheat today owing to
uneasiness regarding the industrial
outlook. Prices closed heavy, az c

provisions at a setback of &c to 22c.
Wheat values began to shrink
when the market opened. Washing
ton dispatches telling of the mill
tant position labor unions had
taken as to Injunction and other
related subjects was clearly the
main factor. Most traders ap-
peared to be impressed with be-
lief that the prospects of better
business conditions soon had been
dimmed Much or the selling was
said to be in the nature OF liquida-
ton. Rallying power failed to
develop, a special reason being a
report that the head Of the federal
reserve bank at Dallas. Tex, was
advising farmers to sell. Some
notice was given also to statements
that most of the wheat arriving in
Minneapolis came from Canada.

Corn and oats sagged with wheat
despite assertions that Germany
would import 100000 bushels of
corn to cut down wheat require
ments. Big arrivals of corn had
considerable bearish effect.
Weakness in provisions was
ascribed to the downturn Of grain.
