Old But Not Out Of Date

The following tale taken from an old copy of Ae sops Fables and has as much ready wit and greater Vmora than many more modern story. It is entitled:
 1.-THE FROG AND THE MOUSE"
 "A Frog and mouse, who had long been riva Is for the sovereignty of certain marsh and had many skr ish and running fight together agreed one day to set tie the matter once for a by fair and open conbat
 They met and each, armed with the point of a bull rush for spear was ready if need be, to fight to the death The fight began in earnest and there IS no 1ow ino how it might have ended had not a Kite seeing them from afar bounced down and carried o both nero es in her talons."
 The town which is sure of advancement IS the one where petty animostes forgotten when 1t comes to working for the good of the whole community Cutting off your nose to spite your face is an extremely short sighted policy. The man who will not serve on com mittee because some other man belongs; the cltlzen who refuses to join some one to whom he has taken personal dislike included in It's roster or members are both extremely nearsghted, to say the least.
 It should not be necessary to like as friend before you can do justice to his ability It is the sign of narrow mind that confounds personalities with busi ness.
 The stigma of ''small town stuff" has fallen upon small settlementsbecause of their proneness to cav at each other and neglect the greater good that would en- sue to the community from their united efforts While they quarreng after the fashion of the frog and the mouse over who shall benefit most from proposed improvement along Big Business in the manner of the Kite in the fable and swallows them both and the profit with them

American Pastime Of Jumping at Conclusions

One of our favorite American sports is athletic in sound if not in fact Itis jumping at conclusions. Any form of exercise whether physical mental is better of course than state of total inertia. However there is one drawback to this form of mental exercise.
 Jumping usually means rising above some jnterven- ing obstacle such hurdle, pole, dtch other hazard and to follow out the comparison the mental plane when jump at conclusions prone to above the sordd facts of the and land with surpr ing agility and in the doubtful land of conjecture Jumping at conclusions may be pleasant pastme, but one would hardly call it beneficial to either his own char acter or to anothers.
 It very easy to see the rocks and hills in ones own road and to fancy that the other fellows leads through green and pleasant pastures The stone bruises heels are much painful than sprained ankle on anothers foot.

The Chinese delegation has ex-
pressed the view that whether or not

twenty-one Demands are to be taken
up at an open session of the Wash

put these outstanding issues on rec

This prevailing sentiment in China
was voiced today by DR.. Wong
Chung-hui, one of the three Chinese
senior delegates. who is called the

There are fundamental reasons
why the abrogation OF the twenty-o one
demands should be considered at this
time" DR.. Wong said.

PARIS; Jan. 2.-There are gloomy
skies for the dawn of 1929. Scarcely
a ray of sunshine can, be perceived
through the dark clouds of hatred.
distruct and suspicion. international
wrangling and disputes, individual,
nationalistic and imperialistic dreams
of power are hanging over Europe to-
day.
Since October an abrupt change for
the worse has been noted In the H.
nancial world. AS a result, business
throughout France, Italy, Switzerland
and all Of central Europe, is at the
lowest since the war. .- <'.
This means positive tragedy to tine
luxury and amusement trades which
are doing practically no business Ut
all. The vast hotels Of the Riviera,
which at this time last year were over
flowing, are now empty, many Of them
closing, despite the fact that the sea-
son Is just beginning.

NEWBERRY VOTE
WILL De CLOSE,
SENAT0RSTHI
Week Will See Michigan Sena-
torship Fight Ended and
Treaty Battle Begun.

The House is without a legislative
program for the first week due TO
the illness of Republican Leader
Mondell, who is confined to his home
with cold. Mondells illness is not
serious and he is expected to be back
when the House gets down to business
again. -
The unfinished business before the
House is the Dyer anti-lynching bin.
The House Is to have fourteen hours
debate on this measure. after which IL
will be taken up for amendments.
Southern Democrats are fighting the
bill, and il Is pre- bable that many
changes will be made. Objections
are based largely on the extension OF
Federal Jurisdiction in criminal cases
which have been under the police
powers of the States, and the pen
aiizing by fines Of counties in which
lynching occurs. -
The Newberry case and the four
power treaty doomed up tonight as the
two big things that will occupy the
attention Of the Senate when 1t con-
venes next week.
Opponents OF Newberry claim Is
have been gathering strength since
the case was temporarily laid aside
two weeks ago. It is definitely set for
vote next week. The fight is con-
ceded to be close and Newberry's
friends are on the anxious seat.
That reservations to the four;
power. treaty will be discussed on the
floor appears certain. Senators are
ready to offer reservations of several
kinds as soon as the treaty Is before
the Senate, and others are out to kill
the whole treaty.
The whole work OF the disarmament
conference is certain to pass under a
hot fire of criticism in the Senate al
most as soon as II convenes.
