PRESIDENT HARDING'S
REPUTATION.

President Harding in the first year
of his administration managed to re-
tain a large measure of the respect
and good viii of the people despite
the reactionary and discredite1 re-
publican congress. In fact, he was
adding to his reputation as kindly,
well-tlisposed man, although his pill
ant and easy nature were raising
doubts in many quarters as to his
capacity to measure up to the duties
- -
Of his great office.
The Just wrath Of the impoverished
agficuiturist, the insolvent business
man and the jobless workman was di-
reeted at the "do-nothing" congress
and its stupid reactionary leadership
rather than at him. Even those who
looked upon Mr.. Harding as the most
incapable President since Hayes, felt
no luminosity toward him, but exhibit
ed either tolerance or sympathy. At
least they, they said despite his OBJ
yious lack of the quality OF leadership,
his apparent inability to make up his
own mind when prompt decision was
required, his always turning away
from the progressive element in his
party and toward the reactionaries, he
was a man with heart, whatever
were the faults Of his head. Through
a display Of affability and kindness
Of heart he had capitalized his very
weaknesses.
Then with the stroke of his pen he
Lniid this reputation and committed
an act which may destroy 1t utterly.
His summary dismissal of the aged
men and women In the Bureau Of en-
craving and printing, without warn
ing, without charges, but in circum-
stances which resulted in rumors,
innuendoes and even direct accusations
which placed them under suspicion OF
wrongdoing IL not Of committing
crime, Is one of the most inhuman
executive acts in the history OF
twcnty-ninc administrations.
President Harding's assault upon
the civil service, his overriding and
setting aside plain statute providing
a merit system of government en-
iployment, the only alternative OF
which Is the old spells system that
bred every form Of political corrup-
ton, including the barter and sale of
offices, Is serious matter, but one
that can be remedied at the polls.
President Harding's assault upon his
own reputation. the injury he has
done himself, is without remedy. All
the kindly words that he may here
after speak will not etfaee the rec
elections Of his heartless and cruel
executive order which threatened to
blast the regulations Of old and faith
full employees.

Appreciation.

The mayor of Southern town had been asked to assist in the annual en- tertainment given at Christmas to the inmates of the local workhOuse. He consented with great complaisance and went and made up as Father Christmas. For time his antics and pranks were the delight of the com pany.
 A damper on his enjoyment was however, eventually brought forward by scrap of conversation he chanced to overhear.

How Vera Aided
 Cupid
By MALCOLM BROWN


 Two persons in Fairvlew were writ Ing letters at the same hour; grace ful, lovely young woman of twenty live, Marcia Westbrook; a grave-faced, handsome man of thirty, Rolfe Dur ward. Neither knew of the employ ment of the other, yet each was writ ing of the other
 Thus ended the letter of Outward to his close friend in a distant city {: "As to your question of getting mar ried and settled down, that is far dis tant. 1 do not think am generally a favorite with the fair sex. There Is a young lady here, Miss Westbrook. I have not had her out of my mind since I first saw her, but she is rich, l am poor, and I am as glow orm covetlng the star"
 The letter of Miss Westbrook was, c0incidentally, also to a close friend and It ended: "So, dear, do not think l have taken leave of my senses, but tell me just what you think of a face that presents to me a nobleness and attraction I cannot resist. Ills name is Rolfe Durward He has a respecta- ble position, and, like myself, I think. he has met with those buffets of fate that make the heart mature and likely to respond only to the real merits of life"
 The grave strain In the mlssIve had basis. Marcia Westbrook had lost father and mother in a single year. She had been left in charge of three young children her sisters. She had given her life to them and had seen little of social pleasure
 "I am going downtown, children, and will be gone about an hour" said Marcia, forgetting the letter to her girl friend which she had slipped into the pocket of her dress she had Just discarded.
 Little Vera clapped her hands In rare delight as her sister left the house

 Inside of five minutes a queer pro- cession came through the front door and crossed the garden. Vera led them past the garden. across a lane and crept under the bars of fence guarding grazing field.
 Now, this Is a fash-n'ble summer resort, on'erstan'?" said Vera. "I'll be a princess, sitting under that tree yonder"
 Meantime Rolfe Outward, with a halliday vacation before him, pocket ed his letter and proceeded to take a stroll. Of course the Westbrook home was magnet, the way his thoughts ran.
 A whimsical smile crossed his face as he passed by the field and caught sight of the mimic court scene in progress beyond the rail fence.
 Arrayed in a red plush cape and seated In great grandeur under the tree, Vera was receiving her company in true dlgnified style.
 She had found the letter In Mar cia's dress pocket.

"There is one reason why Arneri-

ARGENTINA SETS
ASIDE TRACT FOR
A NATIONAL PARK

Buenos Aires-Snow capped noun
tains, glaciers, azure lakes, tumbling
rivers and foaming cascades are
among the beauties of a great ma
tiohal park which the Argentine gov
has just set aside from pub
lie lands in Patagonia.
The park has an area of nearly
100000 acres. 1t is situated most
ly in the territory of Neuquen, on the
Chilean border and takes in foot hills
and mountains of the Andes, includ-
ing some of the volcanic peaks. A
third of it has never been explored.
In the center of it lies a lake as
large as Lake Charnplaln. called Ma
hauel Huapi, over which tower "a
jestic mountains and Offering a mar
vellous panorama of scenery. DOZENS
of other lakes, large and small, lie
cupped among the valleys, some Of
which have probably never been dis
turbed even by the paddle of an In
dian canoe. The region has been de-
scribed as n of the most enchanting
but little known parts of the world.
The park will soon be ~approachable
by a state railroad, almost completed,
which will terminate at Bariloche.
Already, however, the beauty of the
scenery and the spirit of adventure
have for some years been attracting
travellers to the region who have not
been discouraged by the long horse
back or rough automobile Journey
necessary to get there. Now, chalets,
hotels. automobile roads and bride

His Editors Are Is

London-Lord Nortneife. has an
snounced that hereafter the editors of
The Evening News, which include this
Of the staff who would be
termed copy readers" on an Afneri-
can newspaper, will work only four
days a week instead Of five as here
tofore. .
Since 1914" said Lord Northcliffe
when making the announcement, "the'
pace in evening newspaper production
has been. intensified ar1 .is going to
increase still further. Wireless ftele-
phony is beginning. and is going to at
feet the publication of news" z
The occasion was the retirement Of
W. H. Evans. the editor-in-c hief OF
The Evening News who Has been for
20 years on one or another of Lord
Northcliffe's papers. Lord Northcline
gave him a banquet, presented him
with a check for 10000 and awarded
him a pension of 1880 q year for
the next 10 years and afterwards. for
the remainder OF his life,s q pension
Of f1,000 q year.
According to the testimony of news
per men who have worked on both
New York and London afternoon
newspapers, the work on the latter is
much the easier. The New York ait
ernoon papers use on an average
thrice as much news as do their Lon
don contemporaries and do much
harder hustling to get It.

Perhaps the most notable step
taken this year is the procuring of
two new fire towers. one to be placed
on an elevation north of the Delaware
location in Keweenaw county, and
the other 1t Donken in Elm River
township. Tho towers, IS feet in
height and Of the four standard type,
have arrived and will be erected at
once. All other towers in the PENN
sula have been of the three standard
type. .
Modern Equipment.
Each tower Is to be equipped with
the most modern appliances, ihclud-
ing telephones, high power held
glasses and other necessary articles.
Men ii these towers, by means Of the
glasses, will be able to see for miles
and discover the little wisps of smoke
that reveal small fires, which, If I'M
checked would become roaring fur
naces and sweep vast tracts of
valuable timber. Fire wardens pa
trolling the forests will keep in close
touch with the towers by telephone.
Another precaution that will be
taken is the. keeping of a considerable
force of men within easy call Of the
tower. Men in charge Of the stations
will live close by, in order that they
may devote their entire time to the
task. Assistants will be selected from
farming communities nearby in order
that a force of men close at hand
will be available when needed.

Mutiny Against General
Chang, Manchurian Lead
=. er, Spreading.

Peking, May 3o.-(By the Associ-
ated Press.)-The Mahchurian NUT
my against General Chang Tso-Lin.
the M~anchurian leader, is spreading.
The garrison at Hardin has Joined the
mutiny and declared in favor of Gen.
eral WI Pei4Fru, victor. in the recent
Picking campaign, and Hardin is In
control Of the mutineers who, also
have seized all the Chinese eastern
railway from Hardin to the maritime
province Of Siberia.
The prestige of Chang in Man
%churia. in general is said to be di-
minishing. Pressed from the south
by $4,000 of General Wu's soldiers
and threatened from the north by the
spreading revolt, Chang's position lis
considered as becoming precarious.
Several leaders of the Manchurian
provinces who formerly supported
him have declared their allegiance to
General WI.
The Picking government regards the
Manchurian mutinies as likely to lead
to the overthrow Of Chang and ts
closer unity of Manchuria with China
proper.
General WI announced that he in.
tends to pursue Chang to Mukder
and If possible drive him from China
