TERRIBLE JEWELS

The Russian crown jewels, offered for sale by the Boil
sheviks, are advertised as having a value OF $6OOOU,ooo,ooo.
Such is the estimate of Farberger, the French jewel expert
This stupendous sum, in rough figures, is equal to all the
money that will be earned this year by all Americans COM
bined.
And yet the Russian crown jewels are displayed on a
table about IL feet long and s feet wide, scattered rather
loosely on it's surface, not piled up.

centrated in a couple of pecks of glass" and exhibited tc III

INTEREST IN TUBERCULOSIS sANITARlUM

It is noticeable that around about this time every year
the Board of Freeholders become particularly interested in
the erection of a tuberculosis sanitarium. The f%reeholders
have been making an awful mess of this matter for several
years. Considerable money has already been wasted on the
project and still absolutely nothing has been accomplished.
At least two sets of plans have been drawn thus far, and
when everything is ready for the actual building there
doubtless will be another set of plans prepared for which the
taxpayers will be expected to pay. Such is the waste and
ineficiency in handling public affairs.
Just at present an investigation committee has been ap-
nointed made up of citizens throughout the county. This
really means nothing, but it furnishes a means OF getting
the ~freeholders by the coming election with the appearance
of great activity. Not a meeting of the freeholders is held
now without the tuberculosis hospital being thoroughly dis
cussed. After election, judging from past experiences, the
matter will gradually die out. The report of the investigat-
ing committee will be received and will furnish a subject
for discussion for a meeting or two and then it will follow
The course of all the rest.
There has been entirely too much noise and not
enough action in connection with this tuberculosis hospital
matter. AS a campaign issue it is about dead. The record
of the present freeholders is such that they can hardly ex-
meet much support on the strength of any apparent activity
at this time in connection with the erection of a sanltar1um.
If these freeholders had saved the money that they have
wasted on patent pavements during the past year or two
they would have pretty nearly enough money to build the
JrSaposed sanitarium without any additional expense to the
taxpayers.

EAST AND WEST

A missionary returned from India reports that the
Gandhi movement is losing its power since Gandhl was put
in prison, and the principles of that celebrated leader are be-
ing abandoned for a more modern and liberal policy.
"He believed that our civilization was too complex,
explains the missionary, chat it was out of joint, and that
there should be a reversion to the old social order OF a SIM
pe, provincial life. The new movement now under wa!
advocates principles of just the opposite order. 1t favors CO.
operation of the East and West and seeks to work with the
established government rather than against it,
This is surely more promising. Gandhi, however, ap-
peaing his personality and philosophy, was working against
the current of civilization-against human evolution. Ihe
Orient cannot keep to itself any more; neither can the Occi-
dent. And it is better for both that they should mlngle,
each giving the other its best. Antique simplicity cannot be
maintained or revived, and there is no sound reason why
it should be.
The Gandhi idea has its appeal, unquestlonably, 20
manv minds. Even Theodore Roosevelt, most modern OF
moderns. was attracted by Pastor Wagner's theory OF the
"simple life" But with all Roosevelt's praise of that life,
he never tried to live it. He prachsed the opposite, ana
thereby showed himself in the stream OF evolution.
The two ideals are not so far apart, perhaps, as they
seem. Herbert Spencer taught progress i'll all things from
simplicity, through completely, to a higher simplicity. When
the material progress of the West has made life easier for
everybody. it should be easier to live simply than 1t IS now.
And the East has much to teach the West in the way of calm
and contented living, just as the West has much to ofier IN
the way of means to attain the wherewlthal.

q What is the difference between
lam. marmalade and buffers? II.
E. d. .
A. AS a rule, only the small fruits
of which the whole may be used
are utilized in jam making. The
fruit is crushed in the juice so as to
produce a homogeneous mixture.
Buffers are more smooth and more
mixed than jams. For this purpose
fruits which contain a large pro-
portion of f1eshy material are USED.
Buffers are further characterized
by the frequent use of spices ana
other fiavoring agents. Marmalades
stand midway between jams and
buffers. Larger fruits than those
for Jams are used. Fruits whose
pulp will not produce the moot
consistency desirable in a butter are
used in marmalade making. BY
slight differences in preparation,
the same fruit may make either a
marmalade or a butter. For eX-
ample, if peaches are cooked until
soft before adding the sugar. the
resulting consistency is that OF a
butter. If the sugar is added at
the beginning of the operation the
pulp is preserved in small pieces
rather than being reduced to a
SmOOtn paste. IHio IcSuiIS AZ q

Immigrants, OLD AND YOUNG

The immigrant quotas from Europe are beng filled
undulv by the old and helpless while the young and vlgor-
u are crowded out. This is the omplaint OF a Polish
welfare worker returning to this country after years Of SER
vice among the refugees in Poland.
1t is easy to understand that the aged should long TO
escape from troubled Europe and have a little rest in their
few remaining years. 1t is equally natural that the young
should think that they, who have their lives to live. should
he given preference over those whose days are nearly spent.
1t would be impossible to draw a line which would be far
to everybody.
OF the two the young are better fitted to face the strug-
gle of rebuilding broken Europe, yet it seems unfair to con-
denim them sweepingly to the lean existence which will work
death to so many hopes and ambitions before the goal is
reached.
1t is pitiful to see how completely America is still the
Land of Promise to the people over there. They think to
find peace and plenty for the old, freedom and opportunity
for the young, if they can only reach these shores. Their
faith points the finger of shame to America brawling among

@. How did the term "at sixes
and sevens'' originate? II. V. L.
A. The original form of the
preston "sixes and sevens' was TO
set on six and seven. 1t is based
on the language of dicing. and is
probably a corruption of Ito set on
cinoue and sice', these being the
highest numbers. The present form
has been used since the eighteenth
century.
O. How old are CLAIMS when
brought to market? T. d. F.
A. The Bureau of Fisheries says
that the average clam seen on the
market is between four and seven
wears old. The age of a clam Is
determined by the heavy ridges
found on the shell. These ridges are
usually one-quarter of an inch
apart.
q. How can sealing wax be made
at home? X. H..
A. Equal parts Of shoemaker's
wax and resin make a good sealing
wax. 1t will not tempt mice ana
insects as paraffin does.

Mollick was dealt his heavy SEN
tence by Judge Loring in the VAL
paraiso court after a trial that last

Mrs. Catharine Maree of Chicago,
employed one of the two lawyers
who defended the boy. Their in
sanity plea was quickly over
thrown.
Taken from an orphanage at
Plymouth, Ind, four years previous
ly, Mollick had been utilized as
chore boy on the farm of Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Stoltz, near Valpar-
also. The state board of charities
supervised the deal. No evidence
was offered at the trial that the
boy was badly treated. Finding
Mrs. Stoltz at home alone, a sud
den impulse seized the boy and he
killed her with her husbands shot

moaned when he surrendered. OBJ

RADIOPH0NE IS
TO Get STATUS
PUBLIC AGENCY
Recommended That the Federal
Government Have Control of
Receiving Stations.

Washington, March 10.-Alloca-
ton of 20 wave lengths among the
various classes of wireless tele-
phony senders and government
control of establishment of all
commercial wireless Transmitting
stations are discussed by the ratlo
committee of the government radio
conference made public today.
The recommendations do not p ;
vide for government control of re-
ceiving stations, which Secretary
Hoover has said have increased
into the hundreds of thousands in
the last few months. Amateur
transmitting stations under the
committees proposals would be
given exclusive use of wave
lengths from $50 to 200 meters and
share with technical and training
schools wave lengths of from 200
to 275 meters.
Other recommendations are that
wave lengths below 5000 meters
should in a general way be reserved
for radio telephone service, but
that those wave lengths which
have become fixed in service for
telegraph service within this ran 'e,
such as sos signals, shall be re-
tanned" The committees report
expressed the hope and expecta-
ton that the radio telephone may
ultimately keep the whole range
from zero to 5000 meters"
The committees further urge
that the time periods assigned to
the different transmitting stations
for the various services be placed
under the control of the commerce
departments and also that the
radio telephone be accorded the
status of public utility.
The present development of the
art of wireless telephony, the COM
mittees find, warrants the separa-
tion of 20 wave bands. The COM
mittees recommended that prior
ity first be given broadcasting serv-
ice and that broadcasting be con-
verted into priorities in proportion,
government educational and public,
private broadcasting including en-
tertainment, news, etc, and finally
toll broadcasting.
In addition to the wave lengths
of $50 and 275 meters for the anna
| teurs, any additional wave length )
might be assigned to them fcr
some opportunity in experimental
| work. The amateurs, under the
recommendations, would arrange
between themselves as to the divt-
sion of their wave bands between
different varieties of amateur
work.
