rfARDING'S ADDRESS TO U. s. CHAMBER

tivity on the one hand and little con sumption on the other
 And beg to remind you that the great world war. like every other war which preceded it, but more notably the great world war, because of it's incalcu- liable immensity, has left state in hu- man affairs quite different from any that ever preceded it. The war would have been a complete waste, 1t would have been an utter sacrifice of every eff fort, If we did not find the great human procession on a little higher plane than | that which 1t followed before. And ] American commerce must keep that !n mind. There never will be a time when I you can go back completely to the old | order of American industry and ex- changes in trade.
 On Threshold of New Era. 1 T say this because at the very mo- ment we are on the threshold of new | era Undoubtedly there Is more than a
 mere business revival in sight. Our
 country is finding Itself again. We are l fundamentally right and we do not 'n- tend ever to be discouraged for long l time.
 Business is reviving and we are soon to resume our onward sway. ana du- monish yo uof the larger responsibility to keep in mind the new state of hu- man affairs and the awakened aspira- tions of men.
 T do not think that any business can permanently succeed that is not honest And I do not think any enterprise ought
 to succeed that is not honorable. An6 if you will combine honesty and honoi
 that enterprise which makes such so
 gan will stand unchallenged before thE
 world.
 There is one fundamental that W,
 ought never forget. No law can eve

may cconlude other agreements before they proceed to Berlin. Several members of the bolshevik delegation intend to re- main in Berlin until 1t Is time to go to The Hague, and important devolep- nentts are expected in Russian relations within the next few weeks.
 A review of the conference shows that 1t never was quite able to recover from tthe shock of the separate treaty Ger many and Russia concluded on Easter Sunday. A collective agreement with ! Russia was one of the great aims of {, the Genoa deliberations and the sud | den announcement that Germany had | negotiated an agreement alone with Rus sia engenders suspicious among the pow CTS who have never been removed. France voiced her suspicion that the | Russo German accord might contain se- | cret military clauses, and her fear that the conference, instead of bringing har- mony to dIsorganized Europe, might serve as a ground for new groupings of the powers, calculated to disturb the peace of Europe.
 Mir. Lloyd George in the earlier days l of the conference alluded to the danger through the possibility of hungry Rus. sia being armed by Germany and declar.
 
 in Europe remained unsettled there wal just apprehension of future wars.
 The ultimate aim of the conference namely. the reconstruction of Russia, where 1t is asserted thirty millions o people will perish this year for wan of food. and necessary communication
 to distribute food, has failed of achieve
 nlent, though something may be done a
 The Hague. It has failed mainly be
 cause of an diametrically divergen views of the Russian bolsheviki an . western. capitalism. The task of recon
 ciliation has proven Easter than tn
 European statesmen imagined.
 Although the bolshevik reply to th proposals of the mowers was concIliator [ in the sense that 1t suggested a-mixe commission to study the problems ir = volved, the soviet spokesmen practica l | ly rejected the powers questions. The l were especially inEistent on adhering t 2 their doctrine of standardization of pr 8 vate property, including the property ( : foreigners, which the nations desired II 1 tfrned to the former owners.
 The insistance broke the back of tf

with great responsibility. it is the con .viction that the business life of the re- public is the reflex of all it's good for tunes. I think I can venture to say that commerce and civilization go hand in hand; and were 1t not for commerce there would be no civilization"
 'We in America-I am sure it is not unseemly to say it-are commercially great people and we ought to be. God blessed us most beautifully in resources In the citizenship of this republic Is the blend of every people in the world al most and like to say believe we are unexcelled in genius, we are incompar- able in our industry and we have the talent and the determination-the right eous determination-to be commercial I,y one of the foremost nations of the world.
 .srThis aspiration to excel Is ever an impelling one because we have learned from out observations of social ana civic life that from the great golden stream of commerce flows everything in life worth while. If it were not for th.s golden stream that comes from ex- changes. from productivity and ex- changes. there would be little of educa-  would be few of the finer attainments which make life worth while.

 CEREMONIES AT YALE

New Haven, May 1s.-Tap day was held at Yale today, with the traditional ceremonies on the campus. Rain damp ened the occasion for the first time since 1914 but did not lessen the interest of the juniors in the elections to the Yale senior societies.
 Highest honors of the day went to Charles P. LucEey of New Haven, who was the Last man "tapped' for member ship in Skull and Bones. He is manager of football for this year. The first man elected to Skull and Bones was George W. Norton. Jn, of Louisville.

making 1t unnecessary to use the hand hoe on the area planted. If a potato planter is not available a tobacco hoe can be used to cover the fertilizer. and from this point on the process Is the
 same as with the use of a potato plant CT.
 An ordinary cultivator with wings at tached can be used to cover the fertilizer
 if necessary, the other steps being the
 same as outlined above. When the crop is ready a potato digger will save time and effort in harvesting.

LIGHTHOUSES MURDER BIRDS
Thousands Of Feathered Migrants
Perish Yearly, Death Toll Be.
inq Greatest in Fall.

Every spring lighthouses destroy
many thousands of birds flying be-
tween their winter homes in the South
and their summer homes in the North.
The death toll Is greater In the fall.
Lighthouses stand every few miles
along the 5000 miles Of Atlantic coast,
but those especially destructive OF
birds are the lights on the Fowey Rocks
and Sombrero Key at the south end OF
Florida. This is because Of the char
acter Of their lights and their position.
Countless birds pass each year to
and from Cuba, and these lights at
the top of high towers, are on much
travelled emigration routes" The light
on Fowey Rocks is fixed white light,
which is curiously deadly to migrating
birds. A flashing light frightens birds
away, and red light is avoided by
them, but steady white light looming
up in the mist and darkness attracts
many OF the night-traveling birds. Gen
orally they do not strike against the
windward side Of the glass of the
light, but they fly around to the lee
ward side and wear themselves out
flutterIng In the bewildering rays.

ALL CLOUDS MADE OF DUST
That and Not Water ls Found to Be
the Predominatino Element
In Them.

What do you think is the predomi-
mating element of the great clouds
which float high above our heads in
the sky? Water? No; dust, the little
notes that we may see dancing In any
sunbeam. Without dust there can be
no clouds, and without clouds rain can
not fall.
Most of England's rain comes from
the hot seas on the coast Of America.
Here water rises into the air in the
form Of steam, whose tiny particles
adhere to the little dust-specks, or
notes of which the atmosphere Is full.
If it was not for the notes the steam
would simply fall back again at eve
ming time when the temperature
dropped. But as 1t .is, each mote at
tracts certain number of vapor par
ticles, and retains them. In this way
great clouds are formed which are
carried eastward over the seas by the
wind
So long as there Is no great fall In
the temperature they will continue to
be clouds for water-vapor Is lighter
than air and will not sink In 1t; but
should the temperature be reduced rap
idly, the particles of vapor begin at
once to condense into drops Of water
far heavier than air. The notes can
no longer sustain their burden and
rain begins to fall.

Important to All Women
Readers Of This Paper

Thousands upon thousands Of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irri-
table and maybe Respondent; it makes
any one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's SwampRoot, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to be just the
remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder medicine, will do for them. By
enclosing ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y, you may receive sam
pie size bottle by parcel post. You can

WATTS, AMrERES AND VOLTS
Terms Commonly Used by the EIec-
trician Are Explained for
the l-ayman.

The language of the electrician is
Greek to most people. While he talks
glibly of volts and amperes and watts,
they know only that they have to pay
an electric-light bill for so many units,
and let 1t go at that, remarks a London
Tit-Bits writer.
Though electricity Is not fluid, we
can understand most of its terms by
comparing 1t with water flowing
through pipe. If we turn stream
of water onto the paddles Of water
wheel, the work that the wheel will
do depends upon two thingS-the
amount of water delivered every Sec
Ond und the pressure of the stream.
We measure the first in gallons and the
second In pounds.
In the case of electricity, we meas
ure the rate at which 1t flows in am
peres and its pressure in volts. The
work which 1t will do Is found by null
tiplying amperes and volts together,
which gives the answer In watts, or
units Of energy.
The board of trade unit Is 1000
watts. often called a kilOwatt, while
the electrical equivalent of one horse
power Is 746 watts.
You will find the number Of watts
they require engraved on most electric
lamps. and from this you can discover
what they will cost to use. A 25-watt
lamp will use one unit Of 1000 watts
In 40 hours burning; and If electricity
costs tenpence unit, the lamp will
work out at a farthing an hour.
The ohm Is another electrical meas
urement which can be understood by
a comparison with water. Water flows
easily through large pipe, but If the
pipe is narrow, only small quantity
can force It's way through. What the
pipe is to water. the wire Is to elec-
tricity. The smaller the wire. the
more difficult electricity will find it to
pnss, because the fine wire lresists It's
flow. The electrician measures wires
by their resistance in ohms.

ROMANCE OF LONDON GUILDS
Ancient Trade Companies OF the
British Metropolis That Roll
In Wealth.

How many people know what
FLETCHER" Isl The Fletchers are one
Of the livery companies of the city of
London, and the name means an arrow
maker, London Tit-Bits explains.
Some names of the city companies,
such as the fanmakeis, barkers, apoth-
ecaries, joiners and musicians, are
easily recognizable, but what does
cordwainer do, and loriner, and an
upholder? The first Is cobbler, the
second bride, bit and spurmaker,
and the third an upholsterer.
Among the most curious of the COM
panles is the pattenmakers. The pat
ten was contraption to fit on the boot
like a double skate, which lifted the
pedestrian few inches from the dirt
and filth of the street.
There are number Of great" Lon
don companies. In their correct order
they are the MERGERS, grocers, drapers.
fishmongers, goldsmiths, skinners, lEer-
chant tailors. haberdashers, salters.
ironmongers, winners and cloth
workers.
The wealth of some of these city
guilds Is enormous. A parliamentary
commission which sat more than forty
years ago stated that the rateable val
ue of their splendid halls was about
ESQ., 900, and this figure has been al
most doubled during recent years. If
their treasures came under the auc-
tioneer's hammer. they would realize
an incredible sum.
The richest OF the companies is the
MERGERS, with an annual income Of
Fill, 900; followed by drapers, f78,O00;
SINNERS, 100000; clothworkers. &c.,
O0O goldsmiths and haberdashers, f58,-

tailors, $4,000 each and so on.
