To Haze -Four Sessions.

pRECEDENTS have been broken in TIE history of
L the American Congress by the Sixty,seventh
Congress-, in that it will hold four sessions. The
present third and extraordinary session will close
in time for the regular short session to open on
the first Monday in December.
Previously there have never been more than three
sessions of any Congress, although during recent
years the three-session Congress has come TO be the
rule rather than the exception Starting with the
Congress-, that and each succeeding Con,
gress has been expanded into three sessions with
the single exception of the Sixty-four Congress
the only two-term Congress in fourteen years, 1909
to 1923.
In the Fifty-eighth Congress there were three SEES.
sions, as also in the Fifty-fifth and Fifty.third,
the Forty-sixth and Forty-fifth, Forty-second, For.
ty-first and Fortieth. Thirty-seventh, Thirty-fourth,
Twenty seventh, Twenty-fifth, Thirteenth, Elev.
enth, Fifth and First.
1t is interesting to note that in the early days
the extra sessions were held on dates fixed by law
rather than at the call of the president, Congress
itself deciding if and when extra sessions were
necessary. The Constitution, in article 1, section 4
provided that the Congress should assemble March
4, 1889, and thereafter Gin every year = : = on
the first Monday in December, unless they shall by
appoint a different day" Up, to and including
May 20, 1920, eighteen acts were passed providing
for the meeting of Congress on other days in the
Since that year Congress has met regularly
on the first MonLay in December.

Value of Boxing.

noNTT THINK simply because some nations, in
IL Guiding our own, have reduced navies and cut
down expenditures for war purposes that war is
abolished and there will be no more of it. If you
have any such hope in your breast il is one you will
not realize on. Just as long as there are people
on earth who disagree and each thinks he is right
in his contentious he will rally his friends and try
and convince the other fellow with a club of some
sort, that he is right.
In that event, the nation that is so foolish as to
go unprepared to defend itself when attacked, de
serves what it gets IL the contest.
An so with the people of that nation If the
fighting men. those who will be compelled TO carry
arms, il they neglect the casual precaution Of
physical training it is TO their sorrow if the fell
low on the other side gets the better of him.
The art of self-defense should be a prerequisite
in the soldier. The war established the fact and
the lack of the training among the men who filled
the ranks and went over the top and engaged in
the hand-to-hand struggles with the enemy in No
Mans Land.
Boxing is n science that should be taught in the
public schools all over tho land by thorough mas
tiers of the art. 1t is a means of developing the
physical health of the boy, building up nerve and
endurance and intoxicating the necessity and desir-
ability of clean living. Along with the proper
teaching of the art, goes manliness. forbearance,
patience and many other qualities that form the
capable citizen.
With training of this character and the mil.
itary drill already established in many Of the
schools, it is but n step TO the finished soldier, in
case the country has need of him.
There was n day when boxing was not consid.
cred respectable. That was at a time when re-
spectacle people did not patronize it but left the
art TO be monopolized by the tough and british
clement. A change has occurred since that day
and some of the finest families in the land give
their sons n complete course in the art. And
some Of the proudest names in the American So
cial calendar appear at times as patrons and pa
tronesses, too, of boxing events in various portions
of the country.
All of his life Theodore Roosevelt kent himself
fit by Just such physical exercise as boxing af.
fords. he trained his sons along the same lines.
and he ALWAYS kept up his acquaintance with the
of the art and his interest in it.

Support All Ldws

MO MATTER what personal sacrifice it may in
~ yolve it shczld be the aim of every citizen TO
support and respect every law placed upon the
statute books. For upon this attitude toward
American institutions depends the successful exist
ence of our government
A particular phase of the prohibition law, whicsi
marks it unusual among statutes forbidding things
is that it places the people generally upon their
honor. II is n law which has in it more than the
ordinary difficulty for enforcement, since it is di-
7ected at the habits of the people. If it were just
a matter of forbidding the sale of any other com
modify which was calculated as being harmful in
its use, it's enforcement would not be so hard. The
general run OF people would observe it as law
abiding citizens and only the lawless would disre-
gard it.
Because it is different from most other laws is
spect. 1t is one which may be violated easily, de-
to its enforcement. 1t aims also at doing away with
something people have been used to having for
many years. Its enforcement seems to be largely Il
process of education. People must be made used to
doing without liquor and there must be a vast
amount of cooperation with the citizenry and the
government.
Despite the objections many may have to pro
they should not lose sight of the fact that
it is enjoined by law. 1t is n part of the law of the
land, and as such has the right to every ones re-
spect. Because n law is distasteful there is no
excuse to disregard it. Every one owes respect to
all the laws without exception. If the people do
not like n law, there are ways OF getting it off the
statute books, but it should be done in ~constitu-
tional manner.

restfulness of life. There is 10 monotony. Fac

in living natures life the false and artificial are
forgotten in the enjoyment Of the real and the

When admitted, Help Him

THE IMMIGRANT comes to America a stranger
Il He should be taken in hand and given the prop
er direction that will help him find a place in
American society which will make him a helpful
addition and a good American citizen.
When he arrives his surroundings are entirely
new to him, and it is with no little difficulty that
he is able to overcome the obstacles in the way of
becoming accustomed to his environment.
The great mining and steel districts readily
show the need for helping the foreigner to become
a desirable member of society. They will be found
in those districts perhaps in greater number than
in the large cities or snail towns, with the ex.
ception perhaps of New York. These people in the
past came into the comt-y knowing little about
what was before them. Now with restrictions in
force the number coming is not so great. but there
is still much to be done before the problem of i'm.
migration is solved. The present governmental
organization which is handling it seems to be func.
tioning in a most satisfactory manner. 1t only re
mains for it to continue this course.
The United States by virtue of its history, pro
cess of development and its extensive resources is
always going to be a land for the immigrant, He
is going to continue TO come. We must be pre-
pared to greet him properly. He should be en-,
couraged to learn our Languages, our laws and our
customs and as soon as possible to become one OF
us in law, so that we will have no basis for q
large portion of un~assimilated people within our
midst.

a Wonderful Age

WE ARE LYING in a wonderful age and have
w opportunities that few of us perhaps realize.
II one permitted his imagination to project itself
into the future he could picture many advance
ments that might seem foolish to think of now.
But it would not be dissimilar to what others must
have dreamed of in years gone by, before the days
of the telephone and telegraph and before it was
possible to make an air trip of several hundred
miles in less time than it took to go from one town
to a town nearby a half century ago.
There has been a movement in the direction of
applying modern inventions to keeping the people
informed. Educational purposes have been the
stimulus in the working out of many modern in
MENTIONS. The moving picture and the talking ma
chine have been applied to education in n formal
way. School rooms are now equipped with both,
SO that lessons may be brought home to the pupils
more realistically.
Comes now radio TO supplement the educational
uses Of science. The telegraph and telephone have
supplied the news of the world soon after events
have occurred Radio takes its place alongside.
1t too has flashed news events quickly from one
part Of the world to another It will aid in reach
ing remote corners with matters of public inter
est and concern. 1t too will lend it's aid in matters
of education as it has already done in matters of
news and entertainment.
