WINGED that the Allied troops can easily

fleets guns can cover the entire right
wing of the Greek army if it should
move toward Constantin0ple.

THE RIGHT TO THE FLOORS.

The proposal to give cabinet members the right to a seat on the floor of the senate and house and to participate in debate is again be- ing considered at the capitol President Harding and his departmental chiefs have also given the matter attention and it is their unanimous belief that the privilege should be granted. It is not intended to make the pres ence of cabinet members on the floor of either house mandatory, but to give them the privil- ece of explaining measures in which their de- partment are interested, and of answering at tacks that may be made upon them by sena- tors or representatives.
 For many congresses bills have been intro duced making the necessary changes m exist ing law, and in the present congress such meas ures are pending. Friends of the legislation believe it would make far greater harmony be- tween the executive and legislative branches of the government and contribute to greater speed in the enactment of legislation. With the large number of important bills awaiting the attention of congress, it is doubtful If the measures granting the privilege of the floor to cabinet members will be taken up at the pres net session, but discussion of the subject now may pave the way for the passage of such a bill in the near future.

RELIEF FOR THE LIVE STOCK BREEDER

The war finance corporation, under the di- rection of Dwight F. Davis, has finally sue ceeded in proving it's worth, and has turned early banking opposition actually into an at titude of approval. Its future work will be watched with closest interest The two bills introduced in Congress covering the orderly marketing of agricultural products and the financing of the livestock industry demon strate a grasp of fundamentals that means much for the public whose welfare depends so much on the farmer It is evident the flnanc- ing of the livestock industry, with its turn over coming only once in two or three years in the case of bredder herds, cannot best be handled through the Federal Reserve system, and that new machinery must be set up. The antiouated system of thirty, sixty and ninety day notes obviously spells destruction of the industrv., The breeder is sitting continuously on a volcano Tn times of tight money or at the dictum of unconscionable money lenders, he must sacrifice his young stock to meet nsis- tent calls for loans.
 We have now proposed a system of regional rediscount corporations, to be known as Fed eral Livestock Finance Corporations along lines similar to the Joint Stock Land Banks. Surface examination indicates the plan will give relief to the livestock breeder, and en- courage rather than discourage the industry. The proposed legislation attempts to provide means by which the best quality of livestock paper, complying with definite standards on which investors may rely, can be used as a means of raising terms which will put the nnety-day bogey out of sight. Every banker and every interested citizen should give study to this legislation and back it to the limit of his influence unless something better can be brought forward. The livestock breeder has been the goat long enough.

WHERE WAS THE DELEGATE?

The dispatches tell us that congress had not sufficient information upon which to pass judgment on the necessity of 1000 appro priation for survey for government wharf at Juneau. Bureaus and branches of the de- parements of the tretasury, war, navy, com merce and agriculture had testified to the need of the wharf, but there was none to present the matter to congress in such way as to get the money
 This suggests the question:: What was the delegate from Alaska doing? He knows the paths that lead to the various branches of the government which favored the project. He lives in Juneau when he is home and ought to be familiar with the need for the wharf. What

GOVERNMENT A DANGEROUS BUZZ
 SAW.

PerhaDs the strongest bulWark of the poltl- cal boss is the almost universal belief that rrinciples are greater than men. Scarcely a villaoe town county or state that has not s]inped over undesirable candidates as agalnst decent men because of this convention, so ire ouentlv in fact that it is time we turned the microscope on this very vital sssumptlon
 Morals are largely geographical and always subiect to the times The theory of right to- day may be wrong tomorrow. In the early davs mincinles in government may have been more vital than men. Indeed this may be true today. but it is certain that today the char acter of the men we choose to serve us IS more vital than ever before in history, for Tn mat +ers of government we are compelled to put blind faith in the men we choose to serve us' Government has become so highly technical, so amazingly complex, that 1t IS quite beyond the understanding of the average individual. me subtleites of civil finance the ntrlcacles or eA- mort trade, the complexities of transportatlon problems by land and sea, the technique or tariff, the bewildering contradictory elements entering into scientific taxation, not to speak of the dazing problems of foreign relatlons, have removed government so far from the ken of the average citizen that he has lost all touch with it; he feels 1t is sometimes with Whlch he has grave concern, but in which he dares not to express an opinion. His happiness, his welfare, depend on the skill with which these technical problems are confronted, yet they can be man-handled to his complete undolng without his even sensing the folly of hls rep resentative Summed up, government has gone completely from the hands of the people; It seems to have outgrown the people. The peo- ple have not kept up with the procession The press has been insufficient as an educational force, not for lack of desire, but because the press must exist and the people demand as the rrice of support the publication of trivialities. Yhe great city newspapers have come to be a mixture of Diamond Dick, Sherlock Holmes Laurea Jean Libbey, stripped of personality, often devoid of principle, pandering to the ln- telect of the flapper and assuming "mls- leadership'' based on bluff and bluster which rests on the inability of the people to tear away the mask of mock heroics and disclose a half-baked understanding of our national vitamines. It seems as if we must turn back the clock and take more careful measure ot integrity and ability in those we must trust to do for us the things we are unable ourselves to understand. If not this then we need some new system of education in the land

ORIGIN OF SETTLERS

During the French invasion of the
Rhine under Louis XIV Of France
many OF our ancestors left the Fala>
tinate and other provinces of the.
Rhine and travelled down the Rhine
and came to Pennsylvania. This was
about two hundred wears ago. They
settled in the eastern part Of PannsyI-
vania. Many of them lived in York,
Lancaster and Montgomery and Burke
They spread over Northampton,
Daaphin, Lehigh, Lebanon and othel-
counties.
About 1850 some of the descendants
Of these German families came to
MOI tn Carolina and made their homes
in what is now Catawba, Lincoln, Row
en-, Davidson, Guilford and other coun-
ties. They continued toscome to North
Carolina for some syeAEs and before
the war of the Revolution many of
them were in North Carolina. Our
German people were good farmers IN
the Rhine country and in Pennsy'-
vania. In North Carolina they are
among the best farmers in the state.
They left the old world and came
here where they could have churches,
schools and colleges. Here they have
religious rights and political rights.
These German people made good soldi-
ers in the Confederate army. Two Of
them rose to distinction. These two
were General Hoke and General Ram
saur of Lincoln county, North Caro-
lima. They were major generals in
the Confederate army. When Uncle
Sam called these soldiers in North
Carolina who were of German origin
thew answered the call and made good
soldiers over land and sea.

MRS. ELEPHANT SENDS OUT 4
TRUMPET CALL.

Now I want to tell you about Tim
the young son Of Johnny Elephant.
Tim was a playful fellow. The natives
call such young ELEPHANTS Calves"
But Tinker Bob didn't know any 9TH
er name for him but Tim. Every time
he saw. his father coming Tim would
run out OF, the thicket to meet him.
Speaking Of the thicket. 1t is hard
to find a place where there is no
could run through the bamboo stalks
quite rapidly. 1t was among such
stalks that they were found on this
occasion. There are many tender
shoots among the bamboo stalks that
Tim and his mother like to eat.
When he saw what his father was
carrying on his head he stopped short.
That was the strangcst sight hat he
had ever seen and he cried out:
something good to .eat?"
When Silky heard this he was nor
than frightened. He began to trem-
BILE and hang tight to Tinker Bob,
Nov don't you be afraid. Silky" said
the King. mo one will eat you up.
These folks don't eat monkeys.
Then Johnny spoke to Nilsson. Tim:
fms something to eat for? Doesn't
your mother ind enough for you to
eat here where the tender Bamboo
stalks grow?"
Tim made no answer but eyed Tink-
err Bob and Silky carefully. These
are folks o car play with Tim said
his father. This is the great King
of the Forest and his companion.
They have come into the Jungles to
visit the folks who live here. Now ]
want you to play with them. but mind
what I tell you. don't be rough with
them or I'll have to take o across
my knee"
Tinker Bob was anxious to re,
down so that he could play with Tim
for he looked like a pleasing chap
Then it was that Johnny got down or
his knees and lowered his head so that
the visitors could climb down to the
ground.
Presently Tins mother came out Of
