When Cleopatra dissolved and

writer was told by q prosperous

President Harding, demanding
that Government help the farm
ers, generously and sufficiently,
in q financial way, has said more
in one speech than some Presi-
dents said in four years.
The Government has financed
the railroads, endowed banks
with It's national bank system and
its deposits in banks.
Meanwhile the farmer has
done the best he could with his
mortgages, high interests, and
lawyers fees.
Praising the President for his
stand, which is bound to produce
results, it is necessary also to
praise the so-called "farm bloc"
Z It has COMPELLED attention,
which is the only way to get
attention in these days. If you
want anything, fight for it. You
learn that from Ireland.
As long as you don't fight
you don't get anything. You
learn that from India.
Japan makes a pledge to "re-
spect Siberia's integrity" She.

France has been more excited
about those ''poison pen letters"
than about anything else ex-
cent the resignation Of BRAND.
It Is something like the famous
CaiIlaux case, that almost pre-
vented thinking about war in
1914.
Now Il Is discovered that the
TulIe letters were written by
the wife of q local policeman
and BY her mother. Clairvoy-
ants were called in to help In
the hunt. A handwriting ex-

Because the French take deep
national interest in so many
things they do so many things
we'll. To them nothing Is trivial,
from . great war to q salad.

There is growing belief that the

American and other cardinals coming
