president Harding asked, as
President Roosevelt asked in 1902,
the mine owners and the miners to
arbitrate their differences. A ma
jority of the mine owners consented.
The mipers refused. The President
has now requested that the mines
be opened and proposes that all who
are willing to work be protected

President Lewis of the United
Mine Workers is remaining in
Washington continuing negotiations
with some of the operators who
wanted to accept President Hard

that no agreements would be en-

but that efforts were being made
TO bring a sufficient number of op-
orators into the negotiations to rep
resent a large majority of the ton

substantial results in the way of a
settlement might begin.

HOW r o ARE YOU?

The worlds long-distance playing record is broken i'll
Cleveland by William 4. Arnold. He played a grand piano
continuously Tor A hours and A. minutes, pausing only for
three rests of six minutes each.
1t took many years of patient neutrality-suspicious. prac
ticc-for Arnold to develop his muscles, nerve endurance and
brain coordination that made his victory possible.
Now he can get a fat pay envelope for appearing IN vaude-
vile or demonstrating in piano store windows.
Better still, he has that greatest of all satisfactionS-thc
knowledge. that he has done what no man ever before has been
able to do.
That's all right for Arnold, you say, but what can the rest
of us get out of it9 We can get this:
Learn, from Arnold achievement, that endurance can
be developed by keeping everlastingly at 1t.
Endurance Is one OF the greatest potential powers that
lies dormant in every human, ready to be developed.
Without endurance, it is impossible to continue the weary
battle of life until success is reached.
Endurance is more important than the amount of strength
that can be mustered at any particular moment. That is why
ity, in important positions. In the long run, their endurance
has left the brilliant flash in the pan" gentlemen far behind.
Milo, an ancient, famous in fables, was a weaklng. He
took a young bull and carried it around a race-course. Day
after day he plodded with his burden. Each day the bull kept
to handle their task. Finally the bull was full-grown, Milo
could carry it easily. Then he killed it with his fist and the
ladies in the stone grandstand buried him in flowers, admiring
his super-strength.
Demosthenes, the greatest orator that ever lived, STAN
mered and had stagefright whenever he tried to address an
audience. Patiently he practiced ON a seashore, delivering his
orations to the ocean waves, until finally the orations of De-
mosthenes swayed ancient Greece more than kings and armies.
There are three kinds of ndurance-physica endurance,
intellectual endurance and willpOwer endurance.
History is full of thousands of cases like Arnold, Milo and
Demosthenes, each demonstrating the eternal truth-that
endurance can be developed until it is a reserve storage bat
terry that makes success inevitable. Select your goal. Then
train for it.

which is sponsoring the tests. These
lists contain such numbers as ITO a
Wild Rose" (MacDowell); Spring
Song" (Mendelssohn); "Narcissus'
CNevin): Indian Lament" (kreisler
Dyorak); "Toreador Chorus from
Camen (Bizet); Rhapsody Number
Two" (Li5zt); "Anitra's Dance
(Grieg): and Fifth symphony"
(BeethoVen.)
The list is made public and num-
bers are played as often as possible
for the contestants during The weeks
before the contest. For the test, a
number of the pieces are played on
a graphophone and the contestants
identity them as to the title and the
composer. In the Indianapolis
schools so many of the children
learned to know all the pieces listed
that the contest was not much of
a competition. Even after elimi-
mating all papers with very slight
mistakes it was necessary to give
fifteen prizes.
The value of the music tests is
obvious. Acquaintance with a cheap
melody is interesting for only a few
weeks at most. No one goes around
humming the rag time of a few
years ago. The Toreador Song. on
the other hand, with its gay, fasci-
mating Tilt. is worth remembering.

latest jazz tune, and once really
