Mrs. Virginia Marley, wife of
George Marley, ST., died Thursday,
morning, March 1st, 1923, at her
home in Deer Park, aged IA years,
after an illness of two weeks of in

warm an blasting friends. She was

WHAT is HISTORY?

What is history? Apparently too
many purchasing committee of
school system answer, "a book, to
be bought as cheaply as possible. !"
For it is certain that the children of
the United States are not all being
taught from the best histories. And
history that is not true is, much
what the old lady said of the giraffe,
as she looked at it for the first time:
"There amt no such animal"
History not true, is not history, but
propaganda.
History which teaches something
else than history, is history perverted.
History Of the United States which
memories of the great men whose
traditions are our glory, is not fit
book for school or library. For what
did Washington, Putnam, Wayne,
Lighthouse Harry Lee, Nathan Hale,
Decatur, Farragut, Lincoln live and
die if not to hold a mighty torch of
truth and bravery and patriotism and
selfless devotion to America before
us all? Did we fight war of revo-
luton for principles or for money?
Did we fight war in 1912 for prin-
ciples or gain? Did we fight a war
in Mexico for cash or for the love
of Country? Did we defeat Spain,
put Cuba on it's feet and civilized the
Philippines for American ideals or
to add wealth to our Golfers? Did
we send millions of men and billions
of dollars to Europe for wealth or to
help make the world safe for democ-
racy?
Then let us tell the truth in the
books we call histories, which are not
historical unless they tell the truth,
and let us see, all of us, that the vol
umes our children study in our
schools are American patriotic, truth
telling, real, and not sham, propa-
ganda, or colored by sect, creed, or
political belief.
For in that way, and in that way
only, may we be sure that our chill
dren grow up good Americans!

about the head idea.

about the head idea.
It's the few ounces of gray matter
at the top of the medulla oblongata
that counts.
A strong man can lift two hundred
pounds with one hand; but derrick,
an example of headwork, can raise as
many tons with ease.
It's a case of head; not hands.

toric inventor of the sling-shot than
we do to the sling-shot artist him.

And while you wait for us to come
You leave a vacant chair.

HEAD WORK.

Queer to relate, we seldom measure
a mans intrinsic worth by his brute
strength. Not that vitality and all
that doesn't mean much. Oh, no! Far
from it.
But nowadays a mans real value
is imbibed in that three and a-half or
four inches above the ears.
And this sort OF figuring a mans
vaule is not original with US, nor is it
modern With any of the rest Of us.
Before folks ever thought that
marks would ever reach point-double-
O-six and a-half each; even before
folks thought Of any kind of mark
but an easy one, there lived a man
called Ulysses. 1t was in the days of
no taxes and Helen of Troy, that
Ulysses thrived. There is no need to
swell the column by telling what a
valiant scrapper he was. He would
have made star on a football field
or a basketball floor. Most of us
know Of many of the ways in which
he used his think-tank.
Anyhow, We'll tell about this one,
even if you've heard it before.
The Greeks had been pounding
away at the Trojan line for close to
six years. No one, not even William
Jennings Bryan, could blame them for
getting a bit impatient by the end Of
that time.
Finally, the Greek war leaders got
together and agreed that the only
way to beat the Tro3ans was to get
inside their lines. (This was an ex-
cellent piece of reasoning. War lead
ers ever since these guys have had
the same ideas.)
The thought, however, was the least
of it. There was the execution of the
thing. How to get in?
Well, every idea from battering
ram to an aerial attack was put. be-
fore the heads, but they were all re-
jected. Finally Ulysses told of his
stunt:
The Greeks were to build big
horse which was to be of wood, and
hollow. That was easy. They were
then to get into their ships and sail
away, that is, seem to sail away,
which is pretty near the same thing.
But they were to leave a bunch of
their best warriors in the hollow
horse.
He figured that as soon as the en-
envy had obviously departed the Tro-
jams would sally forth from their
stronghold to give the horse the once
over.
It's beauty would take their eyes
they would try to get the thing
in their walls. But the horse was
ig to get through any Of the
part of the wall would have
"oyed to get it in.

Ulysses was right: He
bit of the way.

Shanghai, Oct. 2O.-Resolutions de.
manding that Congress repeal laws re-
quiring Americans living abroad to

American Chamber of Commerce of
China.
A cablegram from Governor Gener
al Leonard Wood approving similar
action taken by the American Cham
Der of Commerce of the Philippines
was presented at the convention by
A. G. Henderson of Manila.
The convention voted unanimously
to unite all American chambers of
commerce in the Orient into single
powerful organization which would
meet annually. I
The meeting also approved of rad
ical changes in the United STATES
court in China which is the only
branch of the federal judiciary out
side Of American soil and also the
only American court that does not per-
nit jury trials.
Resolutions adopted propose that
