I,oaninp Money to Liberia.

Maybe it was unfortunate that President
Wilson, at time when the United States was act
ing as Lady Bountiful to all the needy nations
Of the earth, agreed to loan the Republic Of
Liberia stipulated sum. Also, from the stand
point Of southern democrat, it is particularly
unfortunate that Liberia is negro republic.
However, Liberia was Of some service to the al
lied cause during the war, incurring some ex-
pense, risk and Inconvenience, and it was felt at
Washington then that recognition in form of
loan was fitting. Now the singularly interesting
situation arises of the democrats in congress OBJ

Wilson. Praising him with inordinate laudation,

Thrilled by Jury Duty.

More young women should sit on juries for
the wonderful experience" California girl de-
clares after having served through two murder
trials. There may be some accession of wisdom
from attendance in court, but it is Of sort that
most men feel that they can do without.
Eagerness for experience is characteristic
Of YOUTH leading it into many strange places.
This spirit Of Unsuitable curiosity frequently
spells progress, especially when it applies itself
to the study Of men and matters. However, a
good many persons try to believe that they are
making serious study of life when they are
really only gratifying their emotional cravings.

Sunday School class of $500 in Florl-

story, Il was riding in New Jersey
one day when a man was pointed out
to me by my companion, saying:
THAT man when he was young was
superintendent of Sunday School
and attended church services regular
~. and | never knew man who
seemed to get so much out of his re-
ligion. lie studied his lesson, and
was a most liberal man; he gave more
than l thought he could afford, but
a relative left him some money. He
built a nice house, bought carriages.

The Value Of Sharks.

There are some people who main
tain that everything in the world was
created for or made for some good
purpose. value, or mission, but since
the shark scare" some years ago.
some people think sharks are OF no
value. a full grown shark is from
- to 20 feet long and weighs 1000
pounds.
1st-Some of this enormous fish is
used for food.
2nd-The fins are eaten by the
Chinese who greatly relish them
3rd-The liver yields about 80 gal
Ions of an oil that is used for medi-
cal purposes, and brings $40 to $50
per gallon.
4th-The skin is tanned into leath-
er for use in making purses. grips.
handbags and so on.
5th-Last of ." the teeth bones
and entrals OF the shark are dried
out thoroughly. and then are ground
up into a good fertilizer. Almost l.
600 pounds of fertilizer can be made
from one big fish.

WHEAT MEN PLAN
MARKETING POOL
IDAHO INCLUDED in PROGRAM
OF NATIONAL ASSOCIA-
TION.

Kansas City, Mo.-(A P)- An
American wheat growers exchange
representing 10 states which have al
ready taken steps to establish "an or
derly marketing program" for grain,
was proposed in tentative draft of a
marketing plan drawn up by repre-
sentatives of the National Wheat
Growers association and the North
west Wheat Growers here recently.
Idaho Among Ten Named
The states concerned are Kansas,
Oklahoma, Texas, North Dakota, Ne
braska, Colorado, Montana, Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho.
The plan contemplates control of a
wheat pool of 100,0OO,000 bushels, and
will bes submitted to the directors of
ferees at the meeting said it was
hoped to have the plan in operation
in time to handle this years crop.
Market From One City
Under the plan as drawn up,
trustees would be elected from each
state association to fix zones for
marketing. Each zone would have a
central marketing city.
One man from each state associa-
tion of wheat growers would COM
prise the membership of the proposed
national exchange.
Decision as to the city where the
general headquarters of the exchange
will be located will not be determin-
ed definitely for some time. Kansas
City was tentatively selected
