The ku Klux Alan seems to have
made mistake in choosing as the
scene OF its outrages against law and
order the State OF Louisiana, where
real man holds The Office OF Governor.
In going up against John M. Parker
the chief magistrate OF that state, the
masked marauders of 1.-THE invisible
little understand the charac.
ter and disposition OF the man they at.
tempt to defy.
AT whatever cost, says Governor
Parker, recent alleged outrages in
Louisiana, charged aginst the Ku Klux
Khan, will be investigated and the law
will be upheld.
This statement of Governor Parkers
follows an interview had by him Mon
day with the president and the Attor-
ney General Governor Parker's res
oluteness is beyond praise.
So long as man of John M. Park
er's mettle is Governor Of Louisiana
there is every reason for confidence
that anarchy like that which has been
practiced in more than one state by
the Ku Klux Khan will be sternly re-
pressed.

Truman II. Newberry's resignation
as united States senator is the latest
chapter of dark story in politics.
1t was New berry's vote in 1919 that
organized the senate, packed the for
eign relations committe, placed at its
head Henry Cabot Lodge, defeated
ratification OF the treaty of Versailles,
kept the United States out OF the leag-
ue of nations and brought about the
policy of isolation that has wrecked
foreign trade and impaired American
prestige.
All this and more are indirectly and
directly traceable to Newberry, to his
vote in the senate, to the blighting eff
feet. OF the political crime committed
wit his aid upon Americas and the
worlds life.
1t is not too much to say that New
berryism has been the keystone 10 the
Republican arch since 1919.
The president made known that he
was Newberry's friend. The admin
stration senators stood behind Newber-
~. The secretary OF state came to the
defense of New berry.
Now Newperry himself confesses his
guilt as he flees the wrath to come.

be grateful for our blessings. The ha-
bit of gratitude leads to happiness.

The Palm Crab.

The Palm crab, of the Indian ocean,
Is famous for Its strength. He lives
In coconut groves, where he digs
holes beneath the trees and hides. He
is very fond of coconuts. He tears
the husk from the nuts, with his pow
rful claws. and uses this husk to line
his bed. He always opens the end OF
the coeonut that contains the sort
spot, which may be hammered with
his claw until an opening is made,
Sometimes he seizes it so firmly with
his claw that he can dash the nut
against rock and break it to pieces.
But the husk has to be torn away,
shred by shred, first.
