pl. portable apparatus has been de-
vised for testing gravel to determine
its suitability for concrete. The de-
vice consists of two steel balls ar
ranged so that a piece of gravel can
be plac,d on top of one of the balls
and the other ball allowed to fall
from different heights and strike the
gravel. The height of fall required
to break the gravel is an indication
of its suitability to Withstand the
blows of traffic.
Heretofore there has been no sat
isfactory test of gravel|as there has
been for stone, with the result that
in some instances more costly mater
ial has been used when a suitable
gravel was Available close at hand.
Along this line the bureau is conduct
ing wear tests on concrete made OF

REPATRIATION MONEY

The allied reparations commission
in charge of the distribution OF the
money paid over by Germany was
somewhat startled by demand re-
ceived from the Upited States for
$24l, 100000 for expenses of the Am
erican army of occupation on the
Rhine. The total received for dis
tribution by the commission amount
ed to about 500, 100000 gold marks,
and the disposition of 'it had been
practically decided on without con-
sidering the United States. France
was to get SO per cent and Great
Britain 22 per cent. The American
request was considered a subject for
diplomatic settlement.

WASHINGTON COMMENT

Ideas are epidemic as well as in
-fluenza. Someone sees a ghost"
which throws stones or sets the
house on fire, and behold, an over
the country come reports Of GHOSTS"
Some one who has reason for not
wanting the children of Today well
educated sees a mythical objection
TO the demonstrating bill, now be-
fore Congress, which provides for a
Department of Education and chief
who is a membe. Of 'he Cabinet, and
all over the country little men of lit
tie minds echo the cry of "paterna-
ism"
The Towner- sterling dill requires
these three things in a state before
it can receive the "paternal" federal
aid to education provided in the bill:
1. A puhic school opportunity OF
not less than "a weeks.
2. Compulsory attendance at some
school, public or private, for at least
"a weeks in the year, of all children
between the age of and IA.
3. English as the basic language of
instruction in all schools, public and
private, in the common branches.
The man who comes out in the OPP
en- and saps those provisions as
wrong, or un-American. or vicious
may have courage, if no. sense.
As a matter of sober fact, there
are no real objections to the bill,
even by those who don't want 1t! The
only persons who don't want 1t are
the people who have always fought
education, who see in education OF
the masses the end of spiritual and
thus civil tyranny. But the people
of the United States as a whole want
education, believe in education, de-
mand education, know that education
is the one and only salvation for both
the individual and the nation.
Talk is cheap. Action takes thought
and time. When the Towner-Sterling
bill passes,it will pass because enough
newspapers, clergymen, educators, in
fluential men and common, ordinary, !
everyday citizens have printed, talk
ed and written about their convic-
tions both to and at their respective /
Legislators.
You who read this have a repre-
sentative in Congress and the right to .
address two senators. Three two-cent
stamps and your convictions sent to
these gentlemen will aid in bringing
10 your schools, your community,
your children the same federal aid
which has helped your and other COM
munities in roads, in agriculture, in
postal facilities, in reclamation, in
mining methods, in forestry, in all
the hundred and one ways in which !
Uncle Sam assists Americans to be !
better, ADLER and more prosperous
citizens,
Do IT now!

Surgeons agree that in cases Of
cuts, burns, bruises and wounds, the
first treatment is most important.
When an efficient antiseptic is a2-
piled promptly, there is no danger Of
infection and the wound begins to
heal at once. For use on man or
beast, Borozone is the ideal antisep-
tic and healing agent. Buy it now

For shame, Indiana!
Do II now,


John Mollick, sixteen years old, or
phan boy in short trousers, has en-
tered the Indiana state prison at
Michigan City for life!
The judge who sent him there is
Judge Loring, Valparaiso Circuit
Court
II makes no difference what this
crime may have been. 1t happens to
have been shooting to death his fos-
fer-mother. But can crime, no mat
ter how horrible, which is committed
by a legal, moral and mental infant
be justifiably punished by the life
long expiation of the man into which
that infant will grow?
This is no argument that John Mol
lick shouldn't be Jailed, or that the
doubtless moderate and humane laws
of the sovereign and great state of
Indiana should not be carried out.
But it is an argument against what
seems to be a travesty of so-called
JUSTICE. IL laws are NSil W SNi'O
the body polite they must not only
be just laws, but must be admins
tered so that justice results. John
Mollick may be criminally insane-if
SO, he could either be cured or not
cured, but doctors, not jurists, must
say. John Mollick may be morally
responsible for his act, but he is only
a child. Let the reader of these
lines who sees the justice which
Christ taught, in making a man pay
all his life for the crime of boy,
ask himself whether he thinks he
should be whipped today for the APP
pies he stole when a child?
Doubtless some wise and tolerant
governor of Indiana will see to II that
John Mollick gets a chance to be
something else than victim of a
court procedure evidently more in
terested in the letter than the spirit
of the law. Meanwhile, Indiana, and
many another state, can look serious
ly TO their laws, courts and methods
10 see what manner of Justice" is
this which can wreak society's yenge-
.ance upon children.

SEERESS REVEALS
STUDIES OF POPE

Paris, March 25.-The well-known
Italian seeress, Madame Olga Mast
Dari Sella, cousin of Benedict XIV
and an expert graphologist, has just
given out the following study of Pope
Plus XI's character as revealed to her
by his handwriting:
1.-The handwriting of both the de-
funct and the present Pope is re-
markable for showing a moral and in
tellectual superiority.
i}"That of the new Pope, largs and
wide in character and line, shows in
disputably a superb morality; the
other, that of the deceased Pope,
with its firm traits, its precise style
and its angular characters, demon
strates a will power which dominates
all other moral qualities"
Here are the portraits Of the two
certificates, according to Madame
Sella:

Plus Nj.

Very superior morality and intel
ligence, by nature and by principle.
Vast culture, prompt and lively spir-
it, clear and large ideas followed by
logis and reflection; ardor and mod
crate imagination.
Character excessively and rigidiy
honest; discretion, tact, delacy; his
respect for others pushes his loyalty
until it becomes a scruple and his
bounty until it becomes a sacrifice;
discernment between right and wrong
and capacity to realize his determi-
nation; simplicity and moderation,
all harmonized by a splendid equili-
brium.
His simplicity gives to his actions a
grander and more precise power and
gives proof of a will-power and an
intelligence intensely superior. His
moderation reveals the accord be-
tween his impressions and his will.
which is neither rigid nor inflexible,
for. governed and supported by his
intelligence, it becomes active, supple
and constant, full of energy, sup
ports effort and indicates the firm
ness of his character. His heart is
good, soft and generous. His ges-
ture is large and benevolent.
'Will-power. energy, activity; this
sums up the character OF the dead
Pope. Will-power is predominant
for it is strong. calm and yet mod
crate. A distinction which stimu-
lates him to act, not in contrary to
others but better than thsm, modi-
flies in some respect the severe and
strong aspects of his character.
