SPROUL IS DOOMED
FOR STATE LEADER

Washington. Jan. 10.-A boom for
Governor Sproul as Republican ma
tional committeeman and the leader OF
the Republican party in Pennsylvania
developed during the Governors visit
here today. Although he had intended
to return to Harrisburg at 3 o'clock this
afternoon he fingered half an hour
longer to talk over the State political
situation with members of the Penn
sylyania congressional delegation.
Representative Focht. of Lewisburg,
one of those who talked with him, re
ferred to the Governor afterward as the
natural successor of Senator Penrose
on the National Committee and the logi :
cal choice for leader of Pennsylvania
Republicanism since the Senator'S
death. Focht previously was one Of the
most regular Penrose Republicans in
the delegation.
In addition to Focht. those who
called on him to discuss the political
situation included Representative at
large Walters, Of JQhnstown, who, al
though a dry" was usually taken
along on the Penrose congressional
ticket, and Representative Porter, Of
Pittsburgh. chairman Of the Foreign
Relations Committee of the House and
a consistent opponent Of the Pcnrose
organization.
Another was Representative at large
Mclaughlin, of Philadelphia, one of the
Penrose regulars" during the senior
Senator's lifetime.

A number Of Philadelphians who left
at S.32 this morning for Washington,
expecting to see the installation Of the
Senator, were held up by a freight
wreck outside of the capital and did
not arrive until after the ceremony was
over. Among them were Isaac Penny

to this phase of the coal problem in
his state and urging that something
be done to assist the miners who
wanted. net charity, but EaEk. The
union is not paying strike benefits
and to outsiders It is something of a
mystery how the strikers aAd their
wives and children manage to live.
Last week a church organization
that has interested itself in relief work
took a group of children of West Vir-
ginia miners to New York City to be
exhibited as human documents evil
dencing the urgent need of doing
something at once il they and their
parents are to be saved from starva-
ton. The pitiful appeal made by the
mere appearance of these youngsters,
emaciated as they were and with big
eyes eloquent of suffering, was such
that funds were INN ediately provided
for a trainload of provisions to be
rushed to the mining regions whence
they came.
1t may be the suffering of the min
erS and their families that will prove
the important factor in creating the
popular sentiment required to bring
about the end of the strike. The
American, people do not like to think
of there being starving women and
children even in far-off Europe and
Asia, and they will be still less toler-
ant of such conditions right here at
home.

AT THE STATION

AT THE STATION
Down at the station they used to wait,
All lined up at the railroad gate
Mother and father and cousin Jane,
Searching the track for the coming train,
Grandpa and Grandma and all the pack,
Waiting to welcome a wanderer back
Then never one of us went away
In the summer time, for few weeks stay,
But what he was sure of a rousing din
And n greeting warm when the train
pulled in;
Oldest to youngest would be in wait
To welcome him at the station gate.
I've stood in the line myself and know
The splendid thrill of that fine hello !"
And the laughter glad and the rush to be
The first Of that anxious flock to see
The wanderer quitting the railroad train,
Safe and sound in the town again.
I've been the traveller. too. and
Have seen the light in the mothers eye,
And the fathers SMILE and the brothers
grin
And his rush to carry my suit ease in
And know the depth OF the joy it means
To play a part in those station scenes
Now the line has thinned and there's few
to wait
To watch for me at the railroad gate.
But know some day in the distant years
The Oldest 10 youngest once more III see
Eagerly waiting to welcome me-

THE DESIRE 10 WIN.

Before you can reach a desired
destination, you must first map out q
plan for reaching it. And before the
plan there must be created In your
mind a deep desire to go or to do.
Behind the builder is the architect,
but the builder must use every care

Worlds tennis champion Tilden, in
an article in the public press recently,
commented on the wonderful sports
manship and fine character of former
Champion Mclaughlin, probably the
greatest and Quickest tennis player
who ever lived.
Mclaughlin has already secured
two legs on the championship bowl
and needs but one more tennis cham
pionship to bring him this coveted
trophy permanently. All his throng OF
admirers would like to see him win it.
But Mclaughlin probably will never
attempt another championship-for
as TiIden commented, he has SEEM
ingly lost all desire to win.
The desire to win puts people across
against every odd in the world
You must have it. Everybody must

that time I have admired her very
much and have liked her for her

she mas bought a green hat which she
wears down on one side and up on

You can tell the girl in r. ta2tTal
way how you feel about the bat She
will probably take what you have to
say in the right spirit. but even IL it

over the matter, she will be grateful
to you for your honest opinion. Your
criticism may govern her choice of
clothes in the future and prevent an
other such mistake.

HOW CONGRESS WORKS.

Many persons perhaps, If they-have
given any thought whatever to the
subject, have wondered, in view of
the amount of work accomplished,
how congress spends it's time. The
Hartford Courant. apparently in order
to throw light on the matter, has
taken the trouble to go thru the Con-
gressiona1 Record for April, as it Is
related to the house and here is what
it found:
There was no session on the first
day of the month. But on Monday,
which was April 3, a spirited debate
on the Independent offices appropria-
ton bill took up the major part of the
day The next day was mostly given
to a discussion of the campaign ex-
penditures of the Anti-Saloon League,
and the chairman of the labor COM
mittee was authorized to telegraph
invitations TO certain people to attend
a meeting to discuss the coal strike
situation.
The next day resulted in the passing
OF a bill to provide for the deportation
OF certain undesirable aliens. The
navy radio bill was considered the fol-
lowing day and, on April 2, the coal
strike was discussed. On the next day
department appropriation bill was
passed.
April 9 being Sunday the house
rested from its labors. but, on Mon
day. began the debate on the naval
appropriation bill which, like the
expulsion of Lucifer and his angels.
occupied nine days, one day being
taken out by adjournment out of re-
spect for the memory of Representa-
tive Samuel NJ. Brinson of North
Carolina who had died. not to mem
ton April II when the house met at
noon and adjourned at D. m. By
April 20 the naval bill was out Of the
way and so the conference report on
the independent offices appropriation
bill was turned down. On the next
day 100000 was appropriated for
the control of the flood water of the
Mississippi and the senate's amend
ment to a bill providing Tor monthly
payment of pensions was agreed to.
There was no session on April 20,
which was Saturday. On Monday a
bill was passed giving the comptroller

England now asks the United States
to stop Turkish Outrages on Chris
tians. England for two centuries has
been the protector of the Turk in E,u-
rope. If it had not been for England
Turkey would have been ostra cised by
the civilized world a long time ago.
and one of the promises made during
the war was that Turkey should be
placed under control. To find the
reason for England's course, one need
go no farther than India, with its
millions of Moslem inhabitants. She
fears the power Of Turkey to bring
about a revolt among her Mohamme-
dan subjects. Therefore, John Bull
would let Brother Jonathan do it. and
himself avoid all responsibility. Eng
land is a powerful country but not so
powerful as to feel warranted in an
