So we talked it over quietly,
And voted on it strong.
We don't talk about our neighbors,
We do nothing that is wrong
So we formed the Gambler Club.
We're bound by obligations,
And we mean to keep our word,
We want to help each one to
Travel in better world
We want higher, nobler life
Well vote against the sword,
So we formed the Gambler Club.
Chorus
We love to meet and chat together,
The men play games with one an

It helps them to feel more like a

When they seek the Gambler Club.
Chorus
We'd scorn to ever do a meaner act,
We're proud to walk the good old
beaten track,
For we've plegded ourselves to this

SOAKING THE FARMER UNDER
EACH RAILROAD ACT

Senators Trammell (Dem., Fla.,) and
Norris (Rep., Neb.,l gave some addi-
tional instances of exorbitant rail-
way and express rates and furnished
additional reasons for an investiga-
ton of the railroad situation general
ly Senator Trammell, quoting from a
letter from constituent, said
THE account of sales which was
sent to me by Mr. A B. Prevatt, of
Seville, Fla, who signs this letter,
shows that at Richmond. Va, the COM
mission merchant sold seven crates of
cabbage for s34, approximately S.
crate, which was a reasonably good
price for those cabbage to have sold
for in the market at Richmond.
Charged against that $34 was $22.25
for express; or, in other words, it cost
him s3.17 per crate upon his cabbage
to ship it from Seville, Fla, which is
only about 80 miles below Jacksonville,
to Richmond. The commission being
deducted, $40, left the farmer $S.47
for his seven crates of cabbage. Out
of that $S.37 he had to pay the ex-
pense of production, he had to pay for
the gathering of the cabbage, for crat-
ing it, packing it, and hauling it to the
station; the consequence being that
the farmer, on account of the exces-
sively high express rates, did not re-
ceive the cost of production on the
seven crates of cabbage which sold in
Richmond at fairly good price, name
ly. about S5 per crate 1t would have
have let his land stand idle.
"Unquestionably the farming inter
ests of this country need relief The
Interstate Commerce Commission
should enter into a serious investiga-
ton of the rates that are being i'm
posed upon the agricultural products
of the country Certainly some relief
should be afforded, not only in the in
terest of the producer, but in the inter-
est of the consumer.
Il merely desire to bring these de-
plorable conditions to the attention Of
the senate. l hope that they may also
be considered by the Interstate Com
merce Commission of the senate in it's
investigation of the existing railroad
and express rates"
Senator Norris said:
Il think the senator's farmer should
feel good about that shipment. He
ought to thank God that he got any
thing out of it, after it had been ship
ped on the railroad in these times.
Il have just heard of man in Ne
braska who shipped a carload of corn
whole carload of corn-from Yer
ona, Neb., to Billings, Mont, where
they had no corn, and he did not get
enough for his carload of corn to pay
the freight. He was in debt to the
railroad company 81 cents when he
got through with the operation. So the
Florida man ought to be glad to think
he got out without owing the express
company something when he got
through with the shipment"
These exhorbitant rates are due to
the guarantees of the Esch railroad
act, which President Harding so high
ly praised as great piece of legisla-
ton. The railroads are the only insti-
tutions in the country that are guaran-
teed profit.-Pensacola Journal.

TELL HISTORY OF
PUBLIC UTILITIES

Chicago.-From the days of grist
mills and stage coaches to the pres
ent the country's growth has de-
pended largely on public utilities,
declare members of the Illinois
commission on public utility infor-
nation.
The first. known public utility
was grist mill at Dedham, Mass,
erected in 1640, on the waterway
cut through to Join the Charles
river and the Neponset. This wat
erway. known as Mother Brock,
was the first canal constructed in
the United States. Owners of the
mill provided a place where the
early settlers might grind their
corn, exacting a 1.-THE in. payment
for mill maintenance.
At the time Madison was elected
president, the nation was a group
of isolated communities, the bu-
reau says. 1t took three weeks for
news of his election to reach the
pioneers H Kentucky. President
Monroe warned congress that q
country reaching from the Atlantic
to the middle west was too extern
sive to be governed by a despotic
monarchy"
tThe stage coach was brought in
to use for travel between commun-
ties and canals were built for trans
. portation of grain and other pro-
duce. Early III the 18th century gas
was introduced in some of the larg-
er cities and replaced candles and
lamps.
A big step forward came with the
invention and development of the
steam engine. Steam railroads has
tened the development and expan-
sion of the nation. After that came
electricity and the telephone.
I'VE have passed from the age OF
individual craftsman to the me-
chanical age. states the bureau.
I'VE are in the age Of electrical
power, Of rapid communication, OF
the utilization of gas for cooking
heating and manufacture. Barriers
Of time and distance are wiped out.
Living is more comfortable. And
the development goes on"
