Today The Sun-Spot Earthquake. 10000 Die-No Need. Poor Hazel-No Affection. By ARTHUR BRISBANE

The great earthquake in Chile in- terests 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 gigantic wave that came and went five times, causing destruction 1,200 miles long What interests all Is that scientists attribute the earthquake to an enormous sun spot.
 We know little about sun spots. Perhaps.s projecting out from the suns ordinary surface. 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 general, cares about that?
 Twenty thousand die of cancer needlessly every year. Do not neglect small Jumps on the body, or sore spots. In the beginning. surface cancer can be destroyed in a few minutes without pain.
 Deeper cancers are reached by radio. The newest machine of ter rife power, sends it's rays through two feet of brick, one foot of aluminium, and photographs bones in the hand block away.
 Science is powerful. It can help YOU. if you will let it. Keep away from quacks of all kinds. including ouacks that think they can cure you by talking to you about it, unless the latter make you cheerful.
 Nsxt to X-ray and the surgeons knife, comes cheerfulness. The energy of the blood destroys cancer in many cases. Cheerfulness increase blood energy.

ton. How many, unmentioned,
were there that spent night after
night in sleepless agony, while
their imagination pictured those
dear to them suffering in the cruel
welter of the battlefield. We ought
to remind ourselves of the courage
and bravery that they went
through.
Our soldiers who went across
carried a great responsibility with
them. They were representing the
republic and no n knew how
they would conduct themselves,
but they came thorugh with the
goods. They stood the test. They
did not expect 20 come back.
Every one who went across knew
that there was that possibility of
never seeing the home shores
again.
And some people doubts as to
how they would conduct them
selves when they came face to face
with the highly trained soldiers of
the German army. Not a great
many thought that way, but there
were a few who wondered though
they did not express themselves.
The boys did not wonder them
serves, but it was the people back
here, and after a while they knew
that the German army had about
as much chance as a celluloid dog
had who was chasing an asbestos
cat through He'll.
"The American Legion stands
for right and they should, and do,
promote a love for the glory of
peace rather than war 1t is a
chance for manhood to show itself.
1t is an easy thing to get enthus-
iasm in time of war but not so
easy to promote the same thing in
time of peace.

given by President Harding in his
Armistice Day proclamation last
week should be studied and taught
by every teacher in every school of
any kind in the land as the great
est utterance of its kind.

will teach their children and grand
children the glory of peace and to
do away with war for all time. The
war it not won until the glory Of

The meeting was ended by the

After the meeting at the Globe
theatre the Ladies Auxiliary of the
American Legion served all SER
vice men a dinner consisting Of
cold sliced ham, scalloped potato,

After the dinner the men led by
