EVENTS IN GREAT BRITAIN

For some time students OF
European affairs have been con-
WINGED that great events impend-
ed in that part of the world
Something was bound to happen,
something had to give it was
feh Whether that something
would prove to be economical or
political in character, no one
could say with any great degree
of certainty.
One is reminded OF these Things
by the caving in Of the Lloyd
George government in England
This is epochal. Mr.. Lloyd
George. with a group OF his COM
patriots. now pass into the wider
ness. an eventlality which he
foresaw while delivering his 20
cent address at Manchester. Some
say a war condition still obtains
in Europe. The former prime
minister is the last of the Big -Four,
and many will be inclined to mum
Der him among the war casualties.
1t was once said of the Welsh
wizard, more or less humerouSly;
Gle is the hope Of the world; he
has no Principles This stucn
in the minds of many, 1t was
meant that he had no fixed set
OF principles, like Mr. Wilson, for
example, and he was always ready
for a compromise, in peace or war.
Perhaps a statesman has to be that
way-at all events he is apt to las.
longer. Following the world war
the prime minister ran on a plat
form, in general election, which
demanded the hanging OF the
kaiser and al the German war
lords ON the first convenient teie-
phone pole. After the ballots had
been counted he forgot all about
PLAYING the role of the hangSn2an,
and of late he has appeared as the
friend of the Germans, much to
the discontinue of France. He
has been for and against the Ger
mans and the Russians, while at
Paris he was the friend of Mr..
Wilson. and of this and that
power, in turn, and he generally
got what he went after for Eng
land.
But one can never tell. VIVA;
has just happened 10 the hapieSs
British statesman reminds one
that YOU can NOT always tell about
the plans OF mice and men. The
act of sending the Greeks mo
Smyrna is said to have been 4

Wells says labor will eventually
run England. For some time 1t
has looked that way.

Can Lloyd George come back:
Possibly, but it must be remem-
bered that the world moves, and
near republics, as well as republics,
are ungrateful.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish ana
cloQqed and need a flushing occasional
". else we have backache and dull
misery in the kidney region, severe
headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver. acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sort of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment You
feel an ache or pain in the kidney re-.
zion. get about four ounces Of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in glass OF wa
ter before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the

them to normal activity II also helps

Dartmouth Student Managers Must be
Scholars.

Hanover, N. H.. Noy. l5,--The Dart
mouth college athletic council has voted
that beginning with the class OF 1926,
sophomores desiring to entert the annual
competitions for positions as managers
of athletic teams must have received
during the preceding year a scholastic
average of 90 on the scale in which
40 is the highest mark.
This action was taken after the
faculty Of Dartmouth college had re-
ouested the athletic council and the
council on student organizations TO in
quire into the cause of the decline in
scholastic grades of men entered in
managership competitions.
As a result of the inquiry IL was
found that men entered in such COM
petitions whose grades were not high
during the proceeding year usually al,
lowed their grades to drop throughout
the period Of competition, while those
candidates who had previously at
tanned mark Of at least 30 were able
TO keep their grades at that level.
1t was also found that the high rank
ing scholars usually rank more highly
in the competition for managerships
and that during the past four years all
but one Of the student managers Of
major sports at Dartmouth have been
men of high scholastic rank.

WHY FARMERS FAIL.
Some Of the Reasons Set Forth BY the
Vermont Farm Bureau.

In view of the recent press COM
ment in tho state in regard to the un-
usual number Of bankruptcies among
farmers, the Vermont Farm Bureau
federation issues some interesting fig
ures as to the agricultural situation
in this part Of the country, as com
piled by the bureau of agricultural
economies, United States department
Of agriculture. These figures show
that the general index Of purchasing
power Of farm products in terms of
other commodities stood for Septem-
Der, 1929, at GA per cent Of the pnr-
chasing power in 1918, as compared
with 90 per cent in August and ~
per cent in June.
In other words, II is definitely
shown that the farmers dollar, based
on the prices which he is receiving
for his produce to-day, is worth only
about 81 cents when he comes to pur-
chase in the open market.
A glance at the general agricultur-
nj situation in the east shows that
milk prices are advancing as usual
this fall, but that feed prices are also
higher. Potato growers are thorough
ly pessimistic. selling at rs cents to
40 cents bushel at the car. Potatoes
are rottening considerably. The apple
market Is sluggish. Poultry men, APP
parently, more optimistic than dairy
or fruit farmers.
Figures recently compiled in regard
to the profits Of the dairy industry in
this section Of the country show that
the labor income - the dairy farmer
has been steadily decreasing since 1918,
when II reached its peak and is less
to -day than ii was in 1918 before the
war. even though he has to pay con-
siderably more for things that he has
to buy than he did in the period just
before the war. The term labor in
come" represents what the farmer has
left for his years work after deduct
ing actual expenses and interest on
his invested capital
In commenting on the present agri-
cultural situation in this country,
Professor G. r. Warren Of Cornell uni
versity, who was in Europe last year
as a representative of the United
States department Of agriculture TO
study various phases Of the economic
situation, says in part:

Flat Fish Have Travelling Eyes.

Eyes are made to fit their Jobs. Crabs
and Holsters, which are slow-movers,
have eyes on the tips of short stalks,
so that they can see almost all round
them, and thus sight their enemies in
plenty OF time 70 escape.
The eyes Of snails and slugs are
perched on the ends of their feelers, so
that they can look in every direction
without moving.
Rabbits and hares live continually
on the alert, so nature has given them
ewes at the side Of the head, enabling
them to keep watch without the
trouble of turning around. Birds, of
course, have the same power; they
have only to move their necks to see all
around them.
Insects have compound eyes--that is,
each eye Is made up of many eyes, or
facets. The eve of the common house
butterfly, 1900; while there are some
5000 facets. The ant-with all its
intclligence--has but 90 facets in each
eye
These compound ewes do not move in
their sockets, for the facets give them
the power Of seeing in all directions at
once.
Birds eyes have an inner lid which
acts as q sort Of blind or shutter TO
protect them from the glare Of strong
sunlight. And the falcon family in
addition, have feathers that arch over
the ewes and form a sunshade.
Flat fish, such a. soles, plaNe. and
turbot. have travelling eyes. These fish,
when young are exactly the same shape
as all the other small fry, With an eye
on each side Of the head. But az they
grow. the bones Of the head and face
twist round. bringing both eyes to the
same eide Of the head.
Unless eyes are exercised. they soon
become useless. just as the muscles do.
The Mammoth Cave Of Kentucky. in
the United States. contains many
blind fish and other creatures which
have lost their sight through living in
constant darkness.-Tit Bits.

strongly into our cash and speculative
markets as soon as the crops were
ready to move. Now they have great
difficulties in financing themselves.
They put off buying until the last
minute. There is a strong tendency
to use the European crops in the early
part of the season and buy at the
last end Of the season just enough to
finish out the year. II there is any
carry-over from one year to the next,
he let's someone else keep it.
"This change means that America
must retain ownership of it's farm
products for longer time than be-
fore the war. This is one way OF
financing Europe. The market is like
ly to be weak at harvest time. II,
when European buying begins, there
proves to be a shortage, il makes q
strong market at the end Of the year.
Before the war, the buyer fore
saw his needs and contracted in adj
vance. Supply and demand tended to
balance and this tended to steady the
market. Now, with the delayed buy
ing. the demand is much less certain.
Ii ii difficult to foresee at what point
supply and demand win find an equilib-
rum.
sThe financial conditions Of Europe
continue to be the most disturbing
factor in the market situation. Most
of the countries of Europe are con
tinuing to spend more than their in
come. The difference is made up In
some cases by borrowing and in other
cases by printing paper money. 50
long as this condition continues it will
seriously interfere with the sale OF
American farm products"

err with several new men who come to
Vermont with enviable records on the
court. Semanski, considered one OF

forward, Captain Stevens, forward
and Burns, guard, complete the per
sonnet of last seasons team
Katz, guard; Yarnell, forward;
Beck. center and guard, and Eastburn,
forward, comprise some Of the new

pleted includes games with some OF
the leading teams In the east, the out
standing contests being with Holy
Cross and Dartmouth. Vermont last
