Foreign Advertising Representative
THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCiATlON
SOLVES BONUS PROBLEM FOR
HARDING.

President Harding has let his
position be known ON the proposed
bonus legislation. He is opposed
to the levying Of new taxes to meet
the bonus payments, and likewise
opposed to the restoration of taxes
repealed; he is opposed to bond
issue. He is not unfriendly to the,
bonus-far be the is simply OPP
posed to any of the means SO far
suggested to raise the money.
Bearing out the Democratic prom
Use to be helpful and not hurtful;
constructive and not destructive,
comes that young orator and states
man, Representative James Francis
Byrnes of South Carolina, Demo-
cratic member of the House Appro-
priations Committee, and shows Mr..
Harding and his scared followers in
Congress how the bonus can be paid
and have something left over.
Mr.. Byrnes wants the admins
tration to pay the bonus out of the
Savings which President Harding
says he and the Director of the
Budget are making. He quotea
President Harding's statement OF
$4,000, 900 direct and 100000, 600
indirect Savings" in six months,
which at the same rate would give
1912, 100000 at the end Of the year.
Then there would be the savings
from the scrapping OF naval arm
aments. With $78,OOO,0OO added
4 to the $272,000,O00 the government
would have $35O,00O.0 to pay
the bonus the first Of July, 1922,
and it is not proposed to pay it until
January l, 1928.
The irony of Mr.. Byrnes remarks
is emphasized by the facts to which
he called attention that as resull
Of meeting Of department heads,
presided over by the President, a
deficiency bill for $180,000, 200 is
being prepared; also that the esti-
mates for 1923 exceed the appropri-
ations for 1922 by s109,296,365.
Representative Brynes has intro
duced a resolution requesting the
President to inform the House In
what way these savings have been
made, and from what appropriations
in order to know whether they are
real or merely represent hope, and
says he is serious about it.

success in caring for it. l planted

This was quite a mixture, but as
that was my first year had to plant
something that would not require
much work until was more expert

When the little radishes started
showing their round, healthy bodles'
| had sudden desire to pull them up
and eat them. But my teacher caught
me in the very act of committing this
terrible crime, and reprimanded me
severely. She was just in time to
keep me from pulling up the carrots
too.
How very much l did appreciate
her saving my carrots | did not know
until the city vegetable contest was
held. But the very next morning the
principal called me and told me that
II had the best garden in school, and
that l was to have charge Of all the
products from our school.
That afternoon when the Mayor
and other big men Of the city arrived
to judge the products from the dif-
ferent schools, l was quite nervous
about my carrots; for though they
were in my estimation better by far
than any from other schools, wasn't
quite sure that the Mayor would think
as l did. Presently l came. to the
sudden realization that my name had
been called out, and in a daze heard
the following announcement:

WHY I INTEND TO STUDY LAW.
(Jennie Stubbs.}

As a child, my chief object in life
was to become a cowgirl with a six
shooter on each hip, angora chaps on
my legs, and Mexican sombre-so
adorning my head.
OF course I wanted bucking
bronco, and l used to practice riding
on the banisters with the aid of my
mothers best sofa pillows. But, as l
grew older, this dream slowly vanish
ed, giving place to noble ambitions
to do great things for the sake Of my
fellowmen, to be martyr to society
in general, and to give up my life to
social service work. This ambition
was not fostered by any particular
influence but seems-and I was quite
surprised to find that other girls Of
my own age held the same views
to be characteristic Of grown girls,
whatever their station in life.
When grew older l found that
these high aspirations were giving
place to desire to do something for
myself, as everybody else seemed to
be doing. My once credulous eyes
now looked askance upon the defects
in the world, and discovered disagree
able things about me that had hereto

was real tregedy to me, robbed me
Iof my further desire to be a planter
AS l grew older | began to analyzt
the various professions, with the ain
of discovering the advantages anc
disadvantages of each. The tinancia
side required much of my study, but
| also considered the social as vel

to me so much about his profession
that | became almost persuaded that
| should be an engineer of some kind
But when my brother, who had dis,
covered that engineering was not
meant for him, decided not to 60 back
to school, l was left without a guide
The next thing that l thought of
was the profession Of medicine. My
fathers profession, that of druggist
did not appeal to me, for many rea-
sons, the principal being the long
hours required. In the drug store |

to take an interest in me, and when

Because loved to watch birds and
moths, l decided, when about nine
wears old, to be a naturalist. Untl!
| was about twelve years of age con-
tinued to hunt birds eggs and nests
with greatest zeal. When l would
find the nest of some rare bird, |

the name of the unlucky bird. Hav'

hunt cocoons through the woods on

cocoon, l would take it home and tend
it carefully until gorgeous moth
came from it in the springtime.
Since those happy days are past, my
present ambition is to be a farmer.
I decided upon that as my life work
several years ago. Everybody says
that four years at college will change
my mind about it. However, at the
end of those four years / expect to
be prepared in agriculture.
I suppose it was environment or
natural inclination that made me
choose farming as an occupation. You
know farmer has a great many
pleasures that the city man does not
have, for he can leave his job when
he tires of it, and 60 for a lark in

WHY | BECAME A FARMERETTE
(Etta V. Higdon).
Not so many years ago, when | wa
little girl, | wanted worse than any
thing else in the world to be boy
The situation was desperate. In fact
! was in the frame of mind outlined
by the limerick,
There was a young girl who said,
why
Can't l look in my ear with my eye
I'm sure | could do it,
If put my mind to it;
You never can tell till you try'!'
There was a reason for this Pc
culiar idea that had become implant
ed in my mind. All the little boy:
knew were joining Pig Clubs. Ev
erywhere | went someone was talk
ing about Pig Clubs; I felt myself ar
outsider, all because | was girl. One
day, grown desperate with longing,
recklessly tried to kiss my elbow
(which, as every one knows, is the
magic formula for instantly changing
a girl to boy), and should have
been a man today, | suppose, with the
exalted position Of President of all
the Pig Clubs, if some one had not
come along and jostled me just in
time.
Later, when | entered Edwin T.
Merrick School in New Orleans, |
Joined the garden club. You know
how easily one can pacify a child by
substituting something else for the
thing that he has been crying for.
Thus when this grand opportunity Of
becoming farmerette was presented
to me, ] quickly forgot the old Pig
Clubs and my longings to be boy.

view of becoming professor. My de-
cisions concerning teaching and engl-
neering are merely tentative, however,
for even though should choose either

given the profession Of medicine more
than a fair trial; for this profession
in my opinion offers a greater oppor-

Hines Says Such Step Would Not
 Stimulate Business

Washington. Jan. Sl.-Walker D. Hines, former director general of the railroad administration. called today as a representative Of the public by the interstate commerce in It's inyes- tigation Of transportation rate levels, testified that in his opinion railroad earnings were too low to allow gem cral reduction of freight charges and that business activity would not be stimulated by such step if taken.
 MT. Hines estimated that "in the public interest 1t is probably neces- sary for the railroads to spend on betterments and facilities at least q billion collars year for some time to come"
 Looking over the statistics of rail- road earnings during 1921, Mir. Hines saiJ we can take 1t for granted that general rate reductions are not called for on the ground that earnings are too high. We must all admit rail- road rates are high now but it my opinion current business depression iS not due to that fact but to conditions that are fundamental and world wide"
 On oss-examination, MT. Hines, when asked for his opinion as to how the commission should proceed in considering specific reductions, re- piled that great caution" should mark all approaches to the subject.
