THE GREAT RTH-
QUAKE in Chile interests all.
A tidal wave did the damage.
Something happened on the floor
of the Pacific Ocean, causing a
big crack into which the water
rushed. developing a gigantic
wave that came and went five
times, causing destruction twelve
hundred miles long. What in
terests all is that scientists
attribute the earthquake to an
enormous sun spot.
We know little about sun
spots. Perhaps, projecting out
from the suns ordinary sur
face, they upset the balance
Of gravitation. A little extra
pull on the earth would open a
crack in the Pacific and drown a
few thousands. How much do
you suppose the sun, or the
universe in general, cares about
that?
JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER JR.,
tells the Bible class to save
pennies, work eight hours a day,
respect laws, including prohibi-
tion, vote to change them if you
don't like them.
All sound, but he says also,
"dont run an auto unless you
can afford it." How do you
know when you can afford it!
Millions are doing without auto
mobiles that can't afford to do
without. A better rule is, Get
an automobile if you can, then
work so that you can afford it."
IF YOU SAW A BIRD
WITHOUT WINGS hopping in
the mud, you wouldn't say,
"Don't get wings until you can
afford them" You would say:
"Get wings NOW, fly around
and find the price to pay for
them" A bird without wings,
or a man without an auto, ISM
much.
TWENTY THOUSAND DIE
OF CANCER needlessly every
year. Do not neglect small
humps on the body, or sore
spots. In the beginning sur
face cancer can be destroyed
in a few minutes without pain.
Deeper cancers are reached
by radio. The newest machine,
of terrific power, sends its
rays through two feet of brick,
one foot of aluminium, and
photographs bones in the hand
q block away.
SCIENCE is POWERFUL.
1t can help you if you will let
It. Keep away from quacks Of
all kinds, including quacks
that think they can cure you
by talking to you about it-un-
less the latter make you cheer
full.
Next to x-rays and the sur
geon's knife comes cheerful
ness. The energy of the blood
destroys cancer in many cases.
Cheefulness increases blood
energy.

THE SUPREME COURT DE-
CIDES that compulsory vac
cination, in public schools and
elsewhere, is legal.
OF course, it is just as legal
AS forbidding the carrying cf
dynamite, or forbidding cases
of Asiatic cholera or leprosy to
parade the public streets.
The public has a right to
protect itself. And vaccination
protects from smallpox. Some
DENY it, but that doesn't change

PARIS. Nov. 14.-Dr. Edmund l..
Gros. commander of the depart
mcnt OF continental Europe Of the
American Legion. who has just ar
rived home from New Orleans,
where he attended the legion con-
vention. had words of harsh criti-
cism today for both the legion and
American prohibition.
In a report to the Paris post Of
the American Legion, DIR. Gros
said:
The American Legion is dying.
Mob rule governs the national con-
ventions.
The New Orleans streets were
under mob rule during the conven-
ton there. Shop windows were
broken, furniture and bedding were
thrown from the hotel windows
into the streets, and drunkenness
was prevalent. Whiskey seemed
easy to procure
THE lobbies OF tho hotels were
90 crowded with dice games one
could scarcely pass through them.
THE American Legion has com,
mercialized patriotism. 1t can he
saved only by facing these prob.
lens squarely."
OwsIey Denies Charges.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. IA
Alvin G.. Owsley, national com
mander of the American Legion,
today denied allegations of DIR. Ed.
mund l.. Gros. commander Of the
department of continental Europe,
that the New Orleans convention
of the American Legion was gov
erned by mob rule. and that the
ex.service men had conducted them
selves in disorderly manner.
THE statements seem to be
somewhat extravagant," the legion
commander said. you notice that
he does not say that he saw the
things that are alleged to have
happened v..

The attitude OF the American
Legion and the constructive legis-

act any rumors that might come to
us regarding the actions OF the
members" said Owsley. ~
