PRESIDENT ASKS
men TO RETURN
BOTH SIDES OF COAL STRIKE DE-
LAY Definite ANSWER TO
HARDING.
PEACE PLAN IS MADE
PRESIDENT SUGGESTS FIXING OF
MINERS WAGES BY ARsI.
TRATION,

washington. - President Harding
has placed before leaders of employers
and employees of the anthracite and
unionized bituminous mine fields n
government plan for settling the coal
| strike. 1t called for immediate re.
sumption of work by miners now out
at wage rates Of March 81 last, for
fixing Of permanent wage levies by ar
bitration and for an investigation to
recommend solution Of permanent
problems in the coal Industry.
Union officials informed the Presi-
dent they had no power to give ac-
| ceptance or refusal, but would sum
mon the general policy committee of
the United Mine Workers of Ame.ica
here to consider the matter.
A day of conferences at the White
House and at other offices with Sec-
retaries Hoover, Fall, Davis and At
torney General Daugherty particiHat-
ing, was taken to bring matters to
this stage.
Alfred M. Ogle, chairman of the bi-
luminous operators group, indicated
that his associates considered an ar
bltratiOn plan they had offered last
week, for district settlements, 'the
best and fairest way" to get the mines
open, but John L. Lewis, president Of
the union, classed this "as obsolete in
the light of the Presidents proposals" !"
Anthracite operators, although their
committee was three times at the
White House, maintained silence.
Both bituminous and anthracite sec
tiOns Of the general conference of the
coal industry had Indicated dead
lock before President Harding brought
forward the arbitration plan. The
government, concerned with coal pro-
duction sufficient to meet the indus
trial and transportation requirements
of the country" he said, desired to
have production resumed"
He proposed that mine workers
should return on the old wage scale
and that n commission of five repre-
sentatives of the public, three of the
miners and three of the operators,
should fix before Aug. 10 n temporary
basic wage scale to be held in effect
until March 1, 1923. If its delibera-
tlons should not result in scale by
Aug. 10 the President further suggest
ed that the wage levels ut the time
work was stopped should continue un-
til a new scale was ready.
In addition, the commission pro-
posed, the President said. should 'in-
vestlgate exhnustively every phase OF
the coal industry" and "reveal every
cost OF production and transportation"
Congress would be asked. it was add
ed, to make appropriations to finance
and authorize Its work.
II have taken this short cut to the
resumption of operations because be-
lIeve it Is in the interest of the public
welfare" the President concluded.
"When two great forces do not ngree
there must be peaceful way to ad-
justment. and such arbitration opens
the way"

LOST BY GREAT MISSIONARY
Lorraine" Crosses Recently Found In
Michigan Believed to Have Be-
longed to Father Marquette.

Not long ago, writes a contributor
to the Youths Companion, some
schoolboys of Delta county, Michigan,
VINO We're gathering acorns ut recess
from large tree on hill near the
Eseanaba river, found some valuable
relics that date frcm the time OF
Father Marquette.
The boys had climbed the tree and
shaken the acorns off. While they
were picking them up large one
rolled under sod. One of the boys
pulled up the sod and disclosed four
crosses. furnished with age. Each
was standing upright, and the tops,
which have rings in them, were close
together as If they had once hung
from string. The peculiar shape Of
the crosses reused the boys curiosity,
and they took them to their teacher.
who secured them and found that they
were Of solid silver.
They are Of different sizes. The
largest is six inches long and four
inches wide; the smallest Is four
inches by two inches. All four crosses
are elaborately engraved; except for
the initials "R. c." the engraving on
each Is different from any on the rest.
The workmanship shows the crosses
to be handmade. But, unlike the
ordinary cross, they have two hori-
zontal bars. The upper bar which Is
shorter. than the other. represents the
title" that PLATE ordered to be placed
above the head Of the Savior. The
double-bnrred cross has several names.
1t Is called the Lorraine, or Jerusa-
lem, cross, because Godfrey de Bouil-
lon, duke of Lorraine, whom the
crusaders chose as the first Christian
ruler of Jerusalem. adopted 1t as his
symbol. 1t Is called also the nrchiepis-
copal. or patrinrchnl, cross. because in
the Roman Catholic church it marked
the rank Of cardinals. archbishops and
patriarchs. Cardinal Richelieu, as
archbishop Of Lucon, always wore it.
How did those four double-barred
crosses ever come into this country?
Cardinal Richelieu's niece. the duchess
d'AiguillOn, was much interested In
the missions In New France. She made
many gifts to the missionaries, among
be given to the Indian chiefs as re-
wards for good conduct and zeal for
the faith and for other merltorious
things. In honor Of her uncle. the
cardinal, the duchess had the crosses
made with two bars.
There were several missionaries
who received the crosses. but Father
MnrnInffn n Nt-hn
traversed the region in which the boys
made their discovery. It is likely,
therefore. that he himself lost them:
since the four were together. it is not
probable that Indians lost them.

First Message by Wireless.

Sending messages by telegraph and
telephone without wires thousands of
miles over the oceans Is u fur cry
from sending wireless impulse the
length of kitchen table. But before
Marconi did that others had discovered
certain principles which made 1t pos
sible. Not, however. until Hertz dis
covered the progressive propagation of
electromagnetic action through space

pertinent near its end.
MarcOni, then Il young man just out
Of his teens. read of the experiments
Of Hertz, and conceived the first ap-
paratus for demonstrating the idea.
AT the end of several months he had

was set up. Out Of this initial success

"Resurrection Plant"

During the autumn and early winter
several years ago men might have been
seen in the streets selling an odd little
plant which they called the "resurrec-
tlOn plant" Many and wonderful
were the tales told of the plant by
these itincrant statesmen to persuade
their prospective customers to buy.
Most of them either stated directly or
else led their hearers to infer that the
plants came only from the Holy land,
where they were emblematical of the
Resurrection. Most of them. however,
were Polypodium incarlum, the COM
monest of all the ferns of Florida.
During the dry season the plant
curs up into II small ball and has the
appearance of being dead. In this con-
dtion it will bear transportation well.
When placed in n bowl containing n
little water its leaves will unfold and
assume n bright green color, making
u pretty and ornamental plant.

Good Beginning and End

To The Editor OF the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir-The year 1922 comes in on Sun
day and goes out on Sunday. The year
contains $50 days, divided into twelve
calendar months. twenty eight to thir-
ty'one days each. and one day over.
which gives us the extra Sunday or
hfty.three Sundays in the year 1922.
No excuse for not being good during
the year, having such a good start and
hnlsh. Not just as good as we have
10 be, but just as good as we possibly
can be, and let's mako our cans as
the good housewife does In canning
her fruit and vegetables. Cast aside
all the imperfect and make 1922 a
Glolden Rule year. And keep 1t up
from year to year, And teach it and
preach it to all from the cradle to the
grave, especially to the youth. Teach
lne young girl to be a womaniy girl
with not too many frizzcs and frills.
ana the boy TO be manly boy
90 polite and courteous ana cast aside
Tue cigarette and the swear word, both
very common these days. Their use
VIII surely not get you anywhere.

Sir-I love your city and cannot re-
train from writing O brief letter in its
detense against a great number Of let
ters which you have printed from per-
sons who have found the people here
not deserving of the name of Broth
erly Love- My experiences have been
quite the reverse. l came here only a
short time ago stranger, and was
l taken in? ! was, but not in the
usual sense. of the Interpretation Of
taken in"
1t was probably due to my disposi-
ton. All my life I have not cared to
know people but those that were worth
while find greater companionship
in good books than in bad friends. I
have always been OF an obliging and
happy disposition and gained my
friends in that way. I will give you
briefly a little experience, only one OF
the many I have had.
A gentleman considerably older than
myself needed some assistance from
some one, and fortunately for me, !
was that some one. He was so ap-
preciative. OF that kindness, that he
questioned me, complimented me on
being the right sort of young man

thing for me to return the favor should
call on him. I accepted his offer when
the opportunity came, but only in q
way to make him feel that / had no
ulterior motive in my first kindness
to him.
Gradually a chance acquaintanceship
proved to be a lasting friendship. He
took me up, so to speak, and introduced
me to all Of his friends of my age; In =
vited me to his home, made me feel
perfectly at home and has repaid me
In hundred different ways for my
original kindness TO him. have had
many other similar experiences, until
in n short space Of time I have Ions
list Of friends, often taxing my ability
to find time to keep mp their ac.
quaintance.
1t was my efforts that brought thi,
condition about, but it is the true
spirit Of the Philadelphian who assisted
me. think all those who complain
of the absence Of friendly feeling II
this city are wrong, because they arc
not willing to wait until that feeling IL
cultivated through patience and con
sideration for others. II. w. w.

Story Of Poem

To the Editor Of the Epentn0 Public Ledger:
Sr--Can you give me the words and
story OF tho poem Jennie Kissed Me-?
JOHN Il. MASON.
NorrIstown. Pa. December 81. 1921.
Undoubtedly tho most popular poem OF
cnly one verse in tho English languaGe is
Icish Hunts Jenny Kissed Me- as ioI-
lows:
jenny kissed me when We met,
Jumping from the chair she sat in;
Time. you thief. who love to set
Sweets into your list, put that In.
Say I'm weary, say I'm sad:
Say that health and wealth have missed
me;
Say I'm gro wing old but add
Jenny kissed me!
The Jenny" whom the poet charges with
the osculatory demonstration was Mrs,
Thomas Carlyle. whose maiden name was
Jane BaIllie Welsh. II is said that she had
administered tho kiss upon Leigh Hunts
bringing tho news that her husband RAD
been awarded Il pension ot $1,000 by tho
British Government. At the time the poet
was n "gray-haired lad" so there could be
no objection on the part Of the husband. es-
peClally since the poet was an intimate IN
the family OF the esssyist and historian
Mrs Carlyle Is said to have ardenty
shared her husbands appreciation OF the
many good points OF the poor poet. and 1t Is
to this intimacy that We are indebted FOR
the graceful little Improvisation. There never
was more opportune gift than thus pen
slon for Carlyle. who had been forced to
struggle on through dreary years OF painiul
poverty by refusing to turn his pen TO the
kind OF work which promised gain.
Jenny Kissed Me" was printed for tho
hrst time in America in the thirt|'n'ntn
volume OF Harper's Magazine. 1t appeared
in connection with an article by Moncure D.
Conway. entitled South Coast saunterinss
