GROW SOMETHING.

In the sacred classic in which, the work Of cree
alton IS described in majestic measures we are told
t1at Adam was placed in the garden to tend it.
His environment was ideal, and the picture given IS
OF supreme happiness. Tending a garden was a
part OF that happy life, something without which
1T would not have been complete. 1t was not u1-
tn sin had entered that the curse. of thorns and
brambles was uttered and mans lot became one
|of hardship.
There is a beauty in the changing seasons, and
"a fascination in watching the several stages of
growth which can be appreciated only by the close
observer and active participant. The continued
existence of mankind depends on the constant
repetition Of the miracle OF growth, the sprouting
OF seed in the warming earth, the unfolding Of
the tender plant into its sturdy growth, the de-
velopment of the blossom, the forming and ripen-
ing OF fruit and seed, with the process repeated
endlessly and a surplus available for food and
other use. a.
Nowhere else does it seem that the idvllic CON Cor
ditions under which Adam entered upon his career
can be SO well reproduced as in the small garden,
cultivated for love of it by one who has leisure
to devote to that work, and whose real labor is
in a different field. The little garden
may De made measurably free from the ldisadvan-
tages Of which thorns and brambles are types. The
loving care with which the little plants are tended
keeps the weeds in check, and the work becomes
one OF construction all the way through.
The desire to grow something seems to be
deeply implanted. Aside from its utilitarian ex-

silent companionship of the growing plant is in
spring, and there is profound joy in watching the
development of leaf, bud and fruit. .> Il
Not everyone can have a real garden. Those
who cannot are deprived of a source of ~satisfac-
ton which is not to be scorned. But, failing a
garden, the window box or the flower pot Will
serve, and it is possible by means Of these to enjoy
some OF the pleasures Of life that are missed if
one does not grow something.

RUSSIAN

Some Russian economist proposes that in order
to facilitate the rehabilitation of Russia, foreign
capital to the amount of ffty-six billion dollars
shall be invested ilN that country during the next
ten years: ih,s money, he proposes, shall be spent
|on the rebuilding and development of the trans
|%portatlon system, in agricultural equipments, in
forest surveys and development, and so on.
It is quite likely, that there is a field in Russia
for the profitable Investment of this immense sum,
and OF several times that sum, in such works as
are proposed. The country is the richest OF, earth
IN undeveloped resources, and it is capable of pro-
duclng an immense volume Of commodities that
the world needs, and with that production there
Will be created a demand for the products of other
countries in quantities almost beyond estimate.
Nevertheless, there is no likelihood that Russia
VIII be developed on such a scale or in such a man
ner. The progress Of a country depends not SO
much on what outsiders can do for it as on what
ITS, own people can and will do. And the contribu-
lions OF other nations to the development of Russia
VIII necessarily be adjusted TO the demands in other
directions. The greater part of the energies and the
capital of the United States. for instance. will nee
essarlly be devoted to the development of it's own
resources and the organization of its own indus
tries. For us, as for most nations, foreign trade IS
largely a byproduct, Of domestic business. We pro
duce grain first for the feeding of our own people
and manufactured goods for their use. In that
process we produce a surplus Of many things. and
we exchange that surplus for goods which foreign
peoples can produce more advantageously than we.
In this way our trade extends into every part of
the world. 1t would be injurious alike to ourselves
and to those of our neighbors with whom we now
have trade relations to discontinue our business
with them IN order to- concentrate our efforts on
Russia, and II civilization in general were to follow
this course the result would be disastrous to the en-
tire world. not excepting Russia.
Emphasis IS constantly placed on the need that
the rest OF the world has for the restoration and
Of Russia. There is a tendency. to over
look the Importance to Russia Of a continued and

A reception was rendered Rev.

The reception was very success

1t means a great deal. 1t shows

INTOXICATED

The problem of enforcement of
prohibition in the States is en-
phasized by a report from the
State of Massachusetts, where it is
announced three hundred and
owenty-four automobile drivers
have lost their licenses in one
month because of drunkenness.
The Springfield Union comment
ing upon this remark:
"A year ago the suspensions and
re%vocations in September number
ed 500, of which 164 we're for in
'oXication. The 100 per cent in
crease this year is startling, what
ever the cause. The fact that in
n month 324 intoxicated persons
YER found driving motor vehicles
an average of more than ten d
day-atfords an interesting COM
mentary on the workings of the
prohibition law. In this connec-
ton there seems to be some signi-
icance in the fact that the SPRING
field police records of arrests for
drunkenness in September show
an almost identical increase over
the record for September a year
ago. The September police re-
cords Of other Massachusetts
cities are not available, but it is
known that the increase in drunk
enness has been general.
"But while the drunken pedes-
trian in most cases is a menace
only to himself, the intoxicated
driver of a motor vehicle is a
menace to everybody who uses the
highways and his elimination is
an imperative necessity. The
stern policy of Registrar Goodwin
in dealing with such cases has the
hearty approval of all responsible
motorists and of the public in
general"

of Frank l.. Greene, elected Uni

running behind others on the Re

having fewer votes than his Dem

due to the activities of organized

quarters. At two annual conven-
tons of the American Federation
of Labor, resolutions have been
passed calling TO. an aggressive
campaign against candidates for
public office whose record is not
pleasing to union leaders. 1t is

of the case of State VS.. E. A. Fol

on charges of wilfully neglecting
his duties, was resumed today in
Washington county.
States Attorney Adams in his
statement to the jury said that
four of the counts in the declara-
ton deal with alleged failure ito
turn over the delinquent tax books
at the end of the years 1918, 1919,
1920 and 1921, respectively. 1t is
claimed that these books were not
turned over until April II, 1922. 1t
is further claimed that Mr.. Folsom

money paid to him. that there isya

to the auditing of his books.

Fleetwood asserts that there is no
provision in the law, and that no
decision has been rendered by a
Vermont court, that would justify
the action of election officials in
failing to count in his favor the
ballots on which voters had made
crosses opposite his name twice.
Mr.. Fleetwood said that, al
though he had the matter under
consideration, he had not reached
a decision as to whether he would
take steps to have the votes on the
alleged defective ballots credited to
him, but that it is doubtful if ne
will make any move in the matter.

between the Kemalists and the al

serious but without any new de-
velopments, according to the lat
est messages received today by
TIE French foreign office from the
Near East. The attitude of the
AngOra government which has
been growing progressively sitter
of late is said here to depend
largely on whether the Lausanne

originally scheduled or postponed.
The French observers fear hostile
moves of the Turks if a delay is
