Wins a Presidents Friendship.

Some years ago a boy OF sixteen
years of age began attending ban
quets as a reporter; and, in order
that he might record the speeches
more clearly, he determined to be
a total abstainer. One night he at
tended a banquet at which the Pres
ident of the United States spoke;
and being a poor stenographer, he
asked the President if he would give
him a copy of his speech. The pres
ident said: Tell me, why did you
refuse wine at the dinner this even
ing?" The boy was surprised, but
gave his reason. The next day the
young reporters paper had the only
verbatim report of the speech. And
there grew up a warm personal
friendship between the President
and the reporter, who were President
Hayes and Edward w. Box, for
years editor of The Ladies' Home
Journal. And Mr.. Box says of the
incident: "It vas a valuable friend
ship which that young reporter made
that evening. Other friendships were
constantly made possible to him
through it. And it is easy for me TO
look back and trace my starting
point of acquaintance and o%pportua-
tiles to that unexpected friendship
with the President of the United
States."-Young Crusader.

papers Must Give Sub

Law and Order.

An urgent appeal to his fellow ed
itors to aid the enforcement Of law
by refusing to publish sc-calied
Jokes and sneers on the eighteenth
amendment of the Federal Consti-
tuition was made by j. c. Brimble-
com, editor of the Newton Graphic,
acting president of the National Ed
itorial Association. at the annual
convention of that organization,
meeting at Missoula, Montana. Mr..
Brimblecom said in part:
"The newspapers of this country,
particularly the newspapers which
60 into the homes Of our people,
have a great opportunity at the pres
emit time to give substantial aid to
the cause of law and order by re-
fusing to publish any of the social
ed jokes and sneers on the Eighteen
tn Amendment of the Constitution
of the United States. No matter
what you or I may say OF think as
individuals, of merit or demer-
its of prohibition, we must never for
get that it is the fundamental law
of the land and is entitled to as
much respect as the laws against
murder, theft or treason.
"For if you and I claim the priv
ilege of violating, with impunity, the
law regarding intoxicating liquors,
we must admit the rights of others
TO violate any or all other laws re-
garding which they may have SINH
lar opinions. Such a condition spells
anarchy, nothing less. There must
be no discrimination in the enforce
ment of law and every published
joke or sheer regarding prohibition
adds just so much to the general
unrest which is altogether too prev
alent in this country"

New Publication on Feeding
Pigs.

Clemson College, Sept. 4.-Tests
at various experiment stations have
shown that it pays to feed hogs a
balanced ration, but the problem
which confronts most South Caro-
lima farmers is how they can balance
rations most economically from feed
available. In other words, how can
hogs be fed to convert waste prod
ucts, %by-products, forage, pastures,
and home grown grain into meat to
best advantage?
With these problems in view, the
Animal Husbandry Division of Glenn

From the beginning of the hablta-

mothers and babies will be, yet it
has taken a good many hundred

their hands most of the great ques-

get ready to make the world really
safe for these two classes of the pop

UNITED Press Dispatch. !

st. Paul. July 10.-St. Paul police
are on the trail of fapper safe
cracker. Investigation following the
robbery of the Montgomery Ward
building Thursday night, during
which nine men were bound and
gagged by band of six robbers, to-
day resulted in the aversion that
the leader of the gang was a woman
1t was first believed the leader
OF the gang was a boy, because or
the unusually small size and high
pitched voice. Victims of the band
said that the leader was not more
than five feet tall and weighed
about one hundred pounds. The
figure and actions were those Of a
girl. . 49,
Although no positive descriptions
were obtainable, because all of
the band wore masks, police be-
lieve that the leader may have been
a girl. Because of her apparent
knowledge of the entire builhing
and customs of the watchmen, 1t is
believed she may have been en-
ployed at the plant at some time
Yegg stopped operations when
they discovered both strong boxes

ing followed, according to FRANK

Bankruptcy, Says Soldier
!. Minneapolis, July 10.-Among the
thousands of Minnesotans who made
the hoheward trek from the bat
tlef1elds of France, F. d. Hutchln
son, 4316 Xerxes avenue s., last
night sat in his own home predict
ing a greater Teuton republic, a
greater than before Germany.
Five years ago Hutchinson sailed
for duty in the trenches, member
of the First division. After two
years of fighting, year on the
Rhine and two years Of reconstruc,
ton work, he was one OF the last
to come home.
German reports of financial
breakdown and pleas for a mora
torium are part of an elaborate
propaganda campaign to reduce war
indemnities." Mr. Hutchinson said.
In Germany, at the present time,
he declared
Wages are good. labor is
scarce.
Americans are we'll liked,
French are unpopular.
Germany is not undergoing a
complete financial breakdown, MI.
Hutchinson said. Factories are
working night and day. Industry
has been reorganiZed and Is work. :.
ing at top speed now. Claims OF
terrible financial straits are part OF
a system of propaganda to try to re-
duce the reparations assessed Oh
Germany. .
"The coal mines in the Ruhr dis. !.
trict, and factories in Coblenz and
Cologne, in fact all industrial plants
in the country are. preparing to
fisod the world with cheap German
goods. Once the mark begins to
assume anything like normal ex-
change Germany will be almost as
powerful as it was before. ...
People in Germany are not in a
poverytstricken condition. Laborers'
wages, while not yet entirely in
proportion to the higher costs OF
living. are high enough so there is
no poverty among men actually EN- :
ployed, and men are idle only by
preference. Beer gardens and
theaters are well attended. .
