Dorothy DIX Tcks
Adaptability-1.

A man who makes X-ray pictures
says that he can tell married women
from unmarried women by their
necks. He declares that an unmar-
ried woman's neck is stiff and rigid.
and has to be forced into rhe desired
position, whereas a married woman's
neck is flexible, and easily falls into
any pose.
This is not to be marvelJed at, for
the neck that has worn the matri-
monial yoke is a trained neck. 1t has
had the pride and stubbor1.ness taken
out of it, and it has become supple
thru learning how to duck the places
that rubbed and CALLED.
1t does not take a woman long 10
find out after she is married that her
neck must either bend or break, and
If she has any intelligence whatever
she begins limbering up her mental
and moral vertebrae until she can
tie double bow knots in all of her
previous habits and opinions, instea d
or standing up as uncompromiSing as
a lamp post, and letting natrimony
hammer her to pieces.
Certainly, one of the missions of
marriage is to teach people adaptable
ity. No man and woman can go thru
that mill without having their egotism
and vanity ground to powder, and
without finding out. that If they wish
to live in reasonable peace and happi-
ness, they must learn to adjust them
selves to the people by whom they
are surrounded, and the circumstances
in which they must live, instead OF ex-
pecting to make over the world and
everyone in to their liking.
For this reason, married people are
nearly always more reasonable, more
amenable to argument and easier to
get along with than single people.
Nearly all fanatics are old maids and
old bachelors. They-have never had
to adjust their point of view to an
other and SO there has developed in
them a colossal coflceit that makes
them believe that there is no other
side to a question except the one they
see.
Perhaps the greatest surprise that
matrimony holds for man is the fact
that he has to adjust himself to his
wife. for every mans secret belief is
that he is marrying a lump of clay
that he can transform into his own
image with n pat or two. To his con-
sternation he finds that this was a
mistake, and that he has acquired a
life partner who bristles with sensi-
bilities, and prejudices, and opinions
as a porcupine does with spikes, and
that he has to handle her with gloves
if he doesn't wish to be constantly i'm
paled on her sharp points.

y George Marble, editor of the Fort
Scott Tribune, has written to his pa
per from Minneapolis. MINI. as fol-
lows: 1--WE find, as we have found on
previous visits to Minneapolis. that
prices on many things are lower here
4 than In Fort Scott or in Kansas gen.
orally. A Texas watermelon that costs
: n dollar in Fort Scott sells here for
55 cents. We have eaten at a finely
> appointed restaurant where a half
cantaloupe sells for a nickel. Ice
cream sells regularly for five cents,
as do generous cuts of pie, buttered
toast, coffee, milk. etc. with cakes
and sausage for Is cents, ham and
eggs IS cents, etc. Street car fares
are cents. with a campaign on to
reduce them to cents. Forty dollars
a month is about the minimum rental
for cottages. Berries ana fruits of all
kinds are considerably cheaper than
we have been used to finding them
of late" Perhaps Topeka restaurant
proprietors can give US the answer.

ROY BAILEY HAS A CROUCH
Says 1t Is No Crime for Newspaper
Men to Run for Office.

Says 1t Is No Crime for Newspaper
Men to Run for Office.
Roy F. Bailey editor. of the Salina
Daily Journal and retiring president
of the State Editorial association, has
a, deep, brown crouch. He wants to
known when it became a crime for
newspaper men to run for office in
Kansas He is anxious to express his
thoughts of the politicians who grab
all the free newspaper publicity avail
able and later take the stump to wall
about the tendency to select mem
bers of the press crowd for public
service.
Bailey is for Morgan for governor.
In fact, he will spend most of his time
before the primaries in Topeka pre-
pairing copy for the Morgan press bu
of Atchison in directing campaign ac-
tivities during final days of the pri-
mary fight.
since when has it been a crime to
be a newspaper man in Kansas ash
Bailey. at happens that along with
majority of the newspaper men of
Kansas I have supported several can
didates who are now busy abusing
newspaper men. 1t was done without
price and without reward other than
that we all felt that we were doing
what was for the best interest of the
people of the state.
at all goes back to a point Morgan
has made repeatedly in this cam
paign. There is too much time and
effort being spent in trying to stir up
class hatred and to convince farmers,
mechanics, stockmen and citizens of
various vocations that they have in
terests that are not identified with
those of all other citizens and that
they are entitled to special favors that
are not granted to all the people"

The advocates of high tariff de-
Glare that labor is insisting on the i'm
mediate passage of the Fordney-Mc-
Eumber bill. because the operation
pf the existing law is throwing thou
sands of Americans out of work. Yet
the reports of all commercial ana gov
.ernment agencies show that involun-
tary unemployment has almost en-
tirely disappeared. Misrepresentation
may fool some of the people but they
will not deceive members of congress.
There are approximately a million
idle men in the country, but not on
account of the tariff.

status of the employe who enters the
service Of the Union Pacific railroad

The telegram from Gray is as fol-
lows:
For the information of the general
public from whom inquiries have

who are entering our service every
day and to the end that our former
employees may thoroly understand our
position, wish you would communi-
cate the contents of this telegram to
the public and each former employe
shall be personally advised in regard
thereto.
Statement From Hooper.
Chairman Ben w. Hooper, of the
July I. 1929. issued the following
statement:
Regardless of any question of the right
OF the men to strike, the men who take the
strikers places are merely accepting the
wages and working conditions prescribed
by a government tribunal and are perform
ing the wages and working conditions
which an employer is trying to impose.
For this reason public sentiment and full
government power will protect the men
who remain in their positions and new men
who may come in
subsequently the labor board has
declared that the rules and working
conditions under which the mechan-
ical forces were working before the
strike are still in full force and eff
feet. They cannot be changed except
by an agreement between our EN-
ployes and the management of this
system, or in event of failure to reach
mutual agreement by our employees
(not former employes) and the man
agement, Jointly referring the dis
to the United States rail-
road labor board for decisions
Therefore, since our former en-
ployes left our service of their own
free will and accord. thereby ceas.nG
to be employees of this system, the
public and those who remained loyal
to our service and those who have
entered the service since the strike as
well as those who are entering our
employ daily may rest assured that
the management of this system will
use every resource at its command to
keep faith with them and unquali-
tiedly pledges itself to make no settle

The nationwide coal strike now in

any marked impress upon iron and
steel conditions, says the Iron Trade
Review. At this time, it continues,
producers are most concerned with
the immediate problem of meeting
their order obligations which is COM
plieated by labor shortages at this
season, especially in the hot mills and
by a lack OF box cars, notably in
sheets. Despite ali the present handi-
caps 1t Is pointed out pig iron produc-
ton continues to gain. the total in
