FAMOUS VIOLIN is FOUND
Ono Of the Three Dragon Head In.

Discovered on Farm.

West Bend, Wis.-What Is believed
to be one of three dragon-head violins,
produced by Antonius Stradivarius,
and bearing the date of manufacture,
A. D. 1891, is in the possession Of
Edward G. Lucas of Silver Brook
farm near here
The famed instrument was handed
down to Mr.. Lucas by his father, who
became it's owner through purchase
some thirty years ago, from a Mr.
Hopkins, a property owner who then
resided on Huron street, Chicago, who
had been holding the instrument many
years as security for small loan to
a musical artist who failed to redeem
1t.
Prior to the time Mr.. Lucas, Sr.,
drew bow across the stringed treas
ure, 1t had lain In an attic many
years, untouched. 1t was resurrected
on an occasion when Mrs. Hopkins,
wife of the property owner, had given
a party to a few friends in the neigh

was asked to render some dance
music.
Mrs. Hopkins dug up" the ancient
violin, bereft of strings, and after it
had been restrung, the tones which
were forthcoming proved to be a reve-
lation when compared to the ordinary
instrument. Mr.. Hopkins when asked
If he would sell it replied that he
would part with 1t for a few dollars,
or an amount equal to the "chattel

Opportunity in Mexico.

M EX1CO at last appears we'll on the road to
lVA substantial democratic prosperity which
will effect all classes of its people.
. DIR. Julius Klein; chief of the Bureau OF For
eign and Domestic Commerce, reports surprising
changes in the economic life of our southern neigh
Dor since its latest revolution. The time seems
at hand when American capital can be used
without undue risk in developing the natural re-
sources of this country. ~
For century Mexico was managed under a
wrong economic system The greater part Of its
population were in virtual slavery The magnificent
profits from its mines and ranches were only to
the few. The distribution of wealth was such
that the average had almost no incentive for
enterprise or hard labor. series of revolts ended
this condition. The country requires time to make
fresh start But it is bound, under continued
efficient management, to become one of the great
nations of the earth.
1t has everything essential to greatness Its
fields rich Its mineral treasures are almost
untouched 1t stands only at the beginning Of
its industrial life Its people capable of educa-
tion 1t has. at present, tolerant and able leaders
who realize that the day has passed when personal
greatness be achieved in Mexico without public
service The revolutionary fever with the oppor-
tuntes 1t afforded for a, military dictator is cured
With these facts in mind we expect to see a
steady improvement in the Mexican situation from
now on. With this improvement will coqe a
rapid increase in American business with the neigh
boring country. The day of New World fraternity
is nearer at hand than. before. Mexico has
every prospect of becoming the rival of Brazil
and Argentine the leading nation of Latin
America. This will be no small distinction in
world which is looking with more and more
respect toward the western powers from year to
year.
The day of promise for the land of the Monte
zumas is at hand There seems to be no inclina
tion to let it pass without making the most of it

Existence of God.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
In his note of May s. S. W. Emory
states that This world was not put
together by stirring its parts in a
tub with a long stick" basing his
idea on the improbability Of a
worker ever properly assembling a
machine of only eleven parts in
such a manner. even IL given a bill
lion years to do SO.
1t is illogical to draw parable
cases in which one-half of the ca
lies entirely within the field of our
natural experience and the other
half lies within a supposed
supernatural field, necessarily out
side of our natural experience. We
do not even know whether the same
laws. standards, opinions, etc, hold
within the supernatural field. even
granting that the latter exists.
Because human beings rely on rs-
tional processes to attain a human
standard of efficiency, IL does not
follow as a corollary that an ap-
parent observed efficiency (by hu-
man standards) in the unfolding of
the universe (not under human
controD proves the existence of
God (outside of our field of expe-
rience).
Moreover. Something very like the
clumsy tub and stick process does
seem to be actually going on. &C.
ologic evidence Ctrue though not
inspired) show that this world is
certainly many millions of years.
possibly a billion years. old. Dur
ing the latter hundreds of thou
sands, possibly million, of years Of
this time. many billions of humans
have lived. suffered untold misery
and died to lift bur race to its pres
ent very humble level Of accom-
plishment. Nature is ever very
prodiGal of life and suffering. These
facts are matters of science and
history.
Even so. many people still insist
that the process proves the exis-
tence of God. but when pressed for
an explanation of the discrepancy.
generally have to fall back on a
mystery" often a polite name for
desolate ignorance. Herbert Spen-
Ger was probably as great a think
er as Sir Isaac Newton and had to
conclude that the Great First

would apply even in Millerville).

Capital, Labor and-Land!

I ~ NV A<uAtoI. Inc
/ When Ben w. Hooper, chairman Of
the United States Railroad Labor
Board. addressed the Railway Train
mems convention the other day ne
exhihi. ed the same blindness to eie-
mentary economics shown by many
other men of good win who pat for
ward solution 10 Industrial con-
| filc:
In seeking this solution. Mr..
Hooper said: There can in reality
be no such thing as a conflict between
capital and labor. There may be a
controversy between the man who
furnished the labor of yesterday and
the man who contributes the labor of
today. This Is merely a contest be-
tween man and man and not between
| the laboring man and some gigantic
] lorge. On the one hand are the
men who represent the owners of the
labor OF yesterday, and now typified
by dollars, trackage & general equip
ment. On the other hand is the liv-
ing pulsating labor of today. Both
are essential to the efficient operation
OF the railroads
In thus presenting the conflict as
one solely between capital and labor,
Mr.. Hooper leaves out the third and
most essential element. He is like
a person who knows only two dimen-
sions trying to explain the operation
OF life which exists in three dimen-
sions. Mr.. Hooper. in fact, is living
I in a two-dimension world. There is
third element-a third dimension
just as important to railroad opera
tion or to the operation of any other
industry. as capital and labor. That
element Is land, one of the three
basic factors in industry.
Land also is owned by persons who
enter into the industrial scheme. 1t
] is neither the living pulsating labos
of today nor yet the accumulated
results OF the labor of yesterday"
yet throughout America. as its value
! increases with every population in
crease, its owners take increasing toll
from both capital and labor, through
rent OF interest demanded for its use.
II Mr.. Hooper knew the elements of
economics. he would know that the
proceeds of railroad operation are
divided not two ways. but three ways.
and also that few II any ever sraise
a question of the share that goes to
the landowners who benefit by the
presence of a railroad. and who toll
not and neither spin for the unearned
increment whlrh comes to them.
The, total value of all capital in
America has been set at about 140,-
000. .000. 900. AS the accumulated re-
suit of the labor of yesterday. II is
entitled to its share Of return from
industry. The nations annual labor
value also Is entitled to its return.

SUNDAY, MAY IL, 1922.

Threatening stars rule this day
according to astrology. Jupiter and
Saturn are both in evil place.
1t Is not a fortunate sway under
which to enter into any sort of ne
gotistions.
Merchants and manufacturers
should be exceedingly conservative
in all their dealings during the next
few days.
There is a sign held TO encourage
discomfort and unrest among work
ers of every class.
The clergy may find their minis
trations difficult under this config-
uration which makes for unrespon-
siveness on the part of congrega-
tions.
Ii is not a favorable sway for
pleas for charity. since the rule
makes for .self-pity.
Jupiter and Saturn in today's as
poets bode i'll for understandings
between employers and employees.
Warning is given by the seers
that this is a new era In world ex-
perience and that old customs or
policies can not survive.
All the signs seem to presage the
growth of the spirit Of co-operation
and the cessation Of extreme oom-
petition.
The passing Of an old man who
has Iong held the admiration of the
world is prophesied.
Mars in Sagitarrius will disturb
all countries under that sign.
These include Spain. lower Italy,
Arabia and parts Of France.
Accidents in streets will reach an
amazing aggregate during the com
ing summer. II is prognosticated.
Water trafic also will cause un-
usual loss Of life.
Persons whose birthdate Il Is may

which should be successful.
Children born bn this day may be
hssty and positive, prone to argu-
ment and careless about small
things. They probably will have
extraordinary gifts and will be ca
pable of great success

Dr. Cotsu orth points out that un-
der the thirteen-month year each
day Of the month will fall on the
same week day month after month
and year after year. With this new
twenty eight day month money
spent for salaries, rents and month
ly accounts will circulate 3 per
cent faster than under the present
plan.
The French plan proposed by NJ
G. Amelin TO the Societe Astrono-l
mique la France in 1857 has beenl
advocated largely by astronomers
II is sometimes called the Swiss
plan. II sets aside each New Years,
Day and each leap-yesr day as in
dependent legal holidays. This
plan divides the remaining 364 dsys(
into four quarters of ninety-onel
days each. each quarter containingI
one month Of thirty-one DAYS and
two months OF thirty days.
The international fixed calendar
plan recently received the unani-
nous approval OF a convention held
in Washington by those interested
IN calendar reform and IL is worthy
Of note that this convention was
called by the Liberty Calendar As
sociation OF America, organized TO
further the adoption Of the liberty
calendar. which. similarly TO the in
ternational fixed calendar, has a
thirteen-month year. Recently also
the American section OF the Inter
national Astronomical Union, after
considering both the Swiss plan ad-
vocsted by it's COMMITTEES on calen-
dar reform and the calendar ex-
planned by Mr.. Cotsworth, refused
to instruct its delegates to the
Rome meeting. The fixed calendar
plan seems 20 be gaining headway
in this country as Il has in Canada
and England. II is said that the
international Chamber of Com
merce looks upon the plan with
favor.
Advocates OF calendar reform de-
clare that a new calendar can be
adopted just as easily as standard
time was established by an inter
national congress in Washington
about forty years ago.
