efforts at the eviction of Fishbeck's
hens proved futile.
Finally Frau Siering, one day find
ing FishbeclS's servant girl alone at
home, engaged her in conversation
while a domestic of the Siering
household, under the minister's per-
sonal direction, drove the offending
fowls into Fishbeck's kitchen. A
rooster was overlooked in the STRAIT
egy, however, and his cries brought
the Fishbeck housemaid to the res-
cue, resulting in the returning of the
flock to their roost
Outwitted and enraged, Siering
forced the lock on the henhouse and
elected the F'ishbeck fowls and nailed
up the door. The battle threatened
to become more serious than a skir-
mish, when a government service
wagon drew up with a consignment
of geese for Siering. The humor Of
the situation saved the day, although
the matter is still smouldering.

AMERICA IS WARNED
IN SPEECHES AS To
ITS FUTURE DESTINY
At Commencement and
G h urc h Convention
Words of Admonition
Are Spoken.

Views of Americas future, ex-
pressed the past week, by speakers
on commencement programs, at lead
ing universities and colleges and at
the great gatherings of national
church bodies, have been spoken IN
various keys. Hon. Chase Osborn,
former governor of Michigan. tall
ented but erratic. has warned that
America is following the way of
Babylon. On the other hand DR..
Arthur e. Bestor, speaking Wednes-
day to the convention of Federated
club women of America, gathered at
Chautauqua, sees a splendid moral
future for this country if it accepts
its moral responsibility toward other
nations of the world. The problem
of Christian education was discussed
at indianapolis, the past week, by
DIR. Padleford.
EVANSTON, 1ll.-At Northwestern
University, Hon. Chase Osborn said:
UNLESS Americans learn the way
of life in human justice they will die
nationally, as miserably as the ma
tions that have gone before. II
shall be a part of your sublime task
to blaze a new trail of life and lead
the march.

During the last 100 years the white

"The Genoa conference, the meet

There has been created a distinct

afraid to say they have not attended

a social certificate rather than an
indication of equipment to lead a life
The masses have a mortgage upon
the life of every university grad

charged is by paying to the people
morally. ethically, philanthropically
and physically.
Ihe strong OF the WOrld are dc-
cursed because they have wasted
themselves physically and morally
by the exploitation of the ignorant
and weak. We must get onto our
knees and promise to do so no more
and keep on praying and praying.
Then if we shall do penance and
practice humility, justice and hon.

flourish and be happy.

manifestations. There is never in

Lona cross-country Hike.

Father Time Is the only spectator
at this celestial sporting event, but he
must find it thrilling one. In a 49,
0O0-year voyage from the stars to the
earth, pulses of blue and yellow light
run neck-and-neck race, according
to a bulletin issued by the Harvard
College observatory. Travelling $780,
600 miles a second, the two kinds Of
light do not differ in velocity as much
as an inch second, the bulletin says.
In the entire journey neither gains as
much as two minutes.
This conclusion has been reached
by study of faint variable stars In re-
mote clusters, one Of the brightest
and nearest of which is designated
Messier 5. The distance from the
earth Of this baIl-shaped swarm OF
thousands of giant stars, just calcu-
lated by Harvard astronomers, Is
announced as 1872 klloparsecs or near
ly 10000 light years-a cross-country
hike Of more than two hundred thou
sand trilllon miles

HELPED IN GOING THROUGH
Motorists Got to Their Destination, but
"Papa" Had Had a Lot to
Do With It

A party of tourists was attempting
to reach Pendleton on the Pendleton
pike between Indianapolis and Pen
dleton when one of those things that
happen to motorists so frequently on
country roads happened. 1t was the
day after heavy rain and the ground
was thawing rapidly when this party
descended hub-deep in good, old
HoOsier mud. Through some trick of
luck, assisted by elbow grease, the
automobile was rescued from the mud
hole and the party about-faced to in
uuire at the nearest farmhouse of an
other route to Pendleton.
A small country boy came to the
door and seemed very reluctant to
give Information as to the condition
Of other roads leading to Pendleton.
"Have any other machines been go
ing through on this road?" the boy
was asked.
"Sure, they ali have been goln'
through. P8pa's been takin' 'em
through for 81 apiece. You guys Is
Is the first customers we have lost" re-
piled the boy with deep frown.
A look around disclosed that papa
too was disheartened at the good luck
of the motorists In getting out on their
own power because he had his team
hitched up ready to increase his mud
hole income for the week.

ed talk.

Raises Prices-S Silk
Hose so Expensive

The day may not be far distant
when the cotton. stocking will be found
only among relics of a museum. The
thought brings forth another, namely
that the graceful ankle once enclosed
in that same cotton stocking will be just
as extinct. The craze for silk stock
ings has brought about the almost to-
tai discarding of the high shoe which
helped to keep ankles down to their
normal size and grace. Would it not
be well to employ some sculptor to
make cast to place beside the cotton
stocking before the opportunity will
have vanished? Or some inventive
genius might place upon the market a
device similar to the chin strap used
for the reduction of double chin to re
duce the double and often triple an
kle which is now such common sight.
Who volunteers?
The silk stocking is only one phase
of the situation. Merchants of Wau-
sau are one in stating that cheap
things cannot be sold with the readi-
ness that more expensive article
can. Quality is no longer the thing
desired but instead any quality so long
as the price is high enough to make
it seem desirable. This is true of
every article woman wears, whether
it is stockings, gloves, hats, lingerie,
or any of the dozens of things a wom-
an finds necessary to her well being
The present much talked of high pric-
es are more often the fault of the buy
er than of the shop keeper. In most
instances it is not the people who can
afford the extravagances that are most
prone to them. Not so very long ago
a housewife had a young woman help
ing her with some of the weekly
housekeeping After beating around
the bush for few minutes Mary-by-
the-day stated very calmly that she
was about to raise her prices. Asked
the reason she replied, well, you see,
am planning on going up to the sum-
mer resort to work this summer and
silk hose and everything are SO ex-
pensive." And so the old order
changes. Higher priced clothing will
be with us just so long as we demand
that class of goods
