Answer--The Consolidated Textile

quite in the same class AS the Phila-

Telephone bonds which you hold, both
of which we regard as prime invest
ments. By selling it and purchasing
Northwestern Bell Telephone 7 per

obtain a greater degree of safety with
possibly minimum sacrifice of yield.

And Shaphan carried the book

King word back again, saying.
All that was committed to thy

Then the King sent and gath

And the King went up into the

AT the age of 20 Josiah began to
purge his country of every form OF
idolatry that had become rife
throughout its borders during the
brief reign Of his wicked father
and the long reign of his grand
father; at IS he began to repair
solomon's temple. that had been al
lowed to fall into decay while the
idolatrous held their revels and
orgies and human sacrifices. It was
1t this time that Hilkiah. the high
priest, unearthed the lost word Of
God. what is supposed to have been
the Pentateuch.
When the book was brought to
the king there was great rejoicing.

protectorate over the land of the Nile, and that
Egypt will be a sovereign and independent state

with the aspirations of her people can be Gre
ated is another notable extension of self-deter-
mination.
We have only to recall the speech delivered
by Colonel Roosevelt in London in 1910 in which
he told the British: Either you have right to
be in Egypt or you have not; either it is your
duty to establish and keep order or get out
of Egypt. If, as hope, you feel that your duty
to civilized mankind and your fealty to your
own great traditions alike bid you to stay, then
make the fact and the name agree and show that
you are ready to meet in very deed the respon-
sibility which is yours" That was how Egypt's
British rulers felt eleven years ago. 1t was how
governments generally felt even at the Yer
sailles conference. where the Egyptian delega
ton was shown as scant courtesy as the Irish.

much as we oversee those of Cuba. 1t remains
to be demonstrated what capacity the Egyptians
will show for managing their own internal af-
fairs. The effect of this proclamation upon In

the American flag on this route, and everything
was going on serenely until suddenly, like a
bolt from the blue. without warning or consuta-
ton. the competing British line announced a
heavy cut in passenger rates. Taken aback at
first by this unfriendly act, the shipping board
was nevertheless not long in arriving at de-
cision in the emergency thus precpitated, and it
has now directed rate lower by from $40 to $50
than its rivals lowest cut
The shipping board in a statement makes
it clear that cutthroat competition is not of its
seeking, but it takes the view that the present
may be test fight on all the oceans as to
whether the United States is to continue the
maintenance and expansion of its merchant ma
rine, and it declares its determination to meet
the issue at every point for any length of time.
Our hat is in the ring" says Chairman Lasker,
and we going to stick as long as necessary
to insure the position of American-flag ships
between North and South America"
This is the proper spirit. and the American
people will back it up until it wins out.

WELL. WHY NOT?

Rhymer Byron was rake
Shakespeare often hit the bottle;
Burns was always on the slake,
Pouring liquor down his throttle;
Poe was picked night and day;
J ooh, you kid" was Villon's war cry;
Take the list across the way,
And the same was not far cry;
Goldsmith never had cent,
Shelley jumped his board and lodging:
Homer never paid his rent,
Up and down the highway lodging;
Same old bunch across the slope,
Little coin-but game to blow it

LEGATION the views he holds as to the validity of
the obligation of the country to those who re-
sponded to the call to arms in 1917 and there
after until the close of the war. The civil serv-
ice preference definitely recognized that obliga-
ton. The manner in which, in the larger aspect
the obligation is to be nett can never be
wholly canceled-is the problem congress is now
seeking TO solve.
The danger, of course. lies in the enactment
of compensation law that will carry financial
commitments which the country is not ready at
the moment to assume. Even the most ardent
advocates of bonus legislation will probably sub
