BREACH OF PROMISE SUITS MEAN LITTLE
 TO SIAMESE RULER

Bankok, Siam.--Here's how to jilt a girl without risk of a suit for breach of promise. You have to be an east ern potentate to get away with it, however.
 When King Rama VI of Siam, met Princess Vallabha Devi on shopping expidition, he announced by royal proclamation that he proposed mar rying her, and the local press daily referred to the couple as the Sun and Moon, with true eastern reverence.
 When, however, he changed his mind recently, the king did it this way, also by royal proclamation, of which the following as full transla- ton:
 "BY COMMAND OF THE KINGS
 MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.
 Whereas, in proclaiming his ma jesty's betrothal and for this purpose promoting Mom Chow Cher serene highness princess) Vallabha Devi to the title of Phra Varakanaylapadan (the kings betrothed) Phra Ong Chow Cher royal highness) Princess Vallabha Devi, his majesty had no other desire than firmly and definitely to ensure the succession to the throne with view to the good of the country, as we'll as the happiness of his own person:
 And, whereas, to his majesty's deepest regret, it has now become ap- parent, beyond all doubt, that his ma jesty's noble desire, as above stated, cannot satisfactorily be met owing to the incompatibility of temperament between his majesty and her royal highness Princess Vallabha Devi, which may be accounted for by the chronic indisposition of the princess, whose nervous system leaves much to be desired, so much so that his ma jesty is under the apprehension lest in the event of the royal marriage being permitted to take place undesir- able consequences may follow in re- gard to the succession to the throne.
 "Now, therefore, his majesty has commanded that the proclamation re- lating to his majesty's betrothal is hereby annulled."

bringing Tanner to his senses, and when the latter did regain his feet he was out of his head, swinging wildly at his second, Jack Rooney, who fold ed his arms tight about Tanner, then gently kissed him on the forehead and showed him away.
 Tanners opponent was Spider Kelly, the well-known Pacific coast middleweight. He is a protege of Jack White, the Oklahoma second division heavyweight, who seconded him. White was introduced to the crowd and it was announced that he and Rooney would mix here in Flag staff on the 18th of next month, though it is extremely unlikely that they will. Speedy Dick Cody, former champion bantam weight of the Pac- fife coast, was also introduced and helped Rooney in Tanners corner.

Japan's "Movie" Orators.

The japanese educational authOri~
ties are paying much attention to util-
izing the movies" for the edification
Of the younger generation, says East

lean movie" stars are as much Jap
anese favOrites as they are American
favorites Charlie Chaplin is known
even to the child who does not know the
name of the Japanese premier. Every
movie" theater in Japan has it's own
orators who explain the pictures
especially the foreign Ones-to the au-
dience while the show is going on. Re-
Gently the authorities summoned all
mOtion-picture operators attached to
the picture halls in Tokyo and gave
instructions regarding the practice Of
the profession of film orators. AS
result Of the meeting the authorities
decided to give regular course Of
lectures for the benefit Of film orators
The first Of the series of lectures will

PILGRIM IN SPIRIT
Brave Men All Who Sought Lib
erty in America.
Justice in Writer'S Claim That Every
Family Tree Among Us Has Its
Roots i'm MayfloWer.

For three centuries and more nat
ural selection has been going on in
Europe, sorting out the pioneers from
those who preferred to let well enough
(no matter how bad it happened TO
be- alone. The Pilgrims came to these
shores to escape a religious tyranny,
and in their wake millions have fol-s
! lowed because they have preferred
to seek the new world rather. than
put up with the abuses of the old.
Great hosts have turned their backs
on political oppreSSOrs because of be-
lief in the freedom to be found here.
Stfl other multitudes have fled from
grinding economic conditions in order
TO find fair chance in country
which stood to them as the land of OPP
portunity.
The MaydOWer was not Launched
by cowards," and there have been
mighty few towards among our set
tiers. When a man and his wife sell
all that they have and lead their fam
lily up the gangplank of an ocean liner,
they may not look very much like the
pictures in the Sunday supplements Of
1920 couple, but the difference is
more in dress than in heart. They are
brave pioneers, and it is from them
and their like that we Americans
have sprung writes "Uncle Dudley
in the Boston Globe. In the larger
sense every family tree among us has
its roots in a Mayfiower.
This is why foreign-born youngster
going to an American school can I'M
derstand and appreciate the Pilgrim
story in his lesson book. 1t is some
thing that he has picked up at home
from the old folks, who also were
pilgrims.
Western visitors wandering about
what they have been taught to call
Puritan New England are often mysti-
fed by what they find. They hear a
jargOn of tongues, catch glimpses OF
papers published i'm foreign languages,
meet with faces from south Europe,
from Russia or from the Scandinavian.
north. "TheSe people certainly are
not PuritanS," say the tourists from
Kansas or Oregon. OF course they are
not Puritans But they are not very
far from being Pilgrims like all the
rest of America. They have had the
initiative to leave conditions which
they did not like and cross an ocean
to cast their fortune in a land I'M
known. In essence that is the Pilgrim
spirit.
The face of real American is a
Pilgrim face, no matter what his race
or religion, for 1t looks not toward
the past, but toward the future.
And if there are times when some
section of America seems content to
halt, it is because the Pilgrim strain
has run a little thin. Nothing could
be more untrue to our ancestry than
standing still. Our blood is mixed, but
at the sane time very pure Every
drop of it came from q pioneer.

Darinu Euuilihrists.

The Frenchman who recently waved
the tri-colOr from the top of the
Strassburg cathedral in celebration of
the transfer of the custody of that ia
nous pile from German to French au-
thority, was not the first to perform
this daring feat.
The spire is 1855 feet from the
ground, and is surmOunted by a ''but-
ton" Is inches in diameter, which for
merly was a pedestal for a statue Of
the Virgin, but now serves merely as
a support for a lightning rod In the
Eighteenth century, according to the
chronicles of the cathedral, a German
chimney sweep climbed up to the but
ton and there stood upright on it.
Moreover, at that time there was no
lightning rod running up the side to
aid in the ascent.
In April, 1860, again, French sol
der, to win a bet climbed the spire
and actually stood on his head on the
button. A strong wind was blowing,
and the man swayed this way and
that with his legs in the air in truly
alarming manner. His form, it is re-
lated, seen from the ground, looked
no bigger than a speck, and his gyra-
tons could be noted only with the
aid of field glasses.

A Costly Govt.

In his book or helmets and body
armor in modern warfare. DR.. Bash
ford Dean says: "A shirt of mail in
the collection of the Metropolitan
Museum of Art contains Il quarter OF
a million handmade and tempered
rings. each carefully formed and each
separately riveted. If you estimate
that skillful armOrer might make
and weave together two hundred and
fifty of these links a day. you can see
that this mail would have cost its
maker working every day, almost
three years work-a low estimate for
making this particular mail. If you
allow the maker six dollars day for
thousand days, such "a shirt would
therefore have cost its purchaser in
round figures, at modern prices, six
thousand dollars!

In the days Of the Wars of the Roses,

feverishly burning on the great hearth,

their touSled hair out of their eyes.
They would not wear their swords,
unless there was to be an immediate
foray or battle or rouse of some kind
or other, but all would have their
knives and daggers, to eat with and
to stab, if need be- There was no

they eat and drink? Well, the mere
description is enough to put one out
