OF Lie Insurance, which IS 10 the
very core an American institution
1t is in TACT a great clinic in Amer:-

an insurance against un-Amerlcan
ideals and un-Amerlcan conceptions
Of government
Our Lie Insurance family mum
bers more than forty million mem
bers Of all ages from century
down, representing every walk IN
lie and every normal type OF char
acter and mind. All the children
have come into the family by adop-
ton. And the method of adoption
is as unusual as is the size and quail

dren and the family adopt each
other by mutual consent.
No one can get into this family
unless the family is satisfied that he
is healthy in body and sound in mind.
No one joins the family unless he
wants to. Every one in the family
has an estate Of his own. No one
can stay in the family unless he
bears his fair share OF the family
burdens. 50 long as he meets the
conditions Of membership, the whole
resources Of the family are pledgec

The family is founded upon per

Monies, which fact is a sure guaran
Tee Of complete security and protec

SpeculatOrs' Tricks

! Washington, Feb. o.-In the senate MT Hefin of Alabama read press dis patches to show the excuses of cotton speculators. One dispatch stated: Re ports of further good rains in the south were considered a factor in the decline"
 "The rain all over the cotton belt today does not amount to the pop ping of my finger in it's effect upon the cotton crop of this year, which will be planted in April and -early in May" said Senator Hehin.
 "The cotton specu1ators of the country, back by certain spinners here and abroad, beat down the price when they are ready to buy little of the raw material for the spinning inter ests. Then in few days the price will go up little, and then, when they get ready for another supply of cotton they go out on the exchanges and put out report that there has been rain in the cotton-producing sec ton, and that is stated to be reason for the break in the price of cotton three months before planting time. It is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard"

LESS WOMEN IN EMPLOYMENT, SAYS
 U. s. BUREAU

Washington, Feb. o-Contrary to popular opinion, the United States women's bureau says there were less women employed in 1920 than in 1910. The bureau bases this statement on a study of the census statistics.
 Tn continental United States 8,54o,- 5II women 10 years of age and over were gainfully occupied on January I; 1o2o," says the bureau "This number represents an actual, increase since 1910 of nearly half a million; but if the increase in population be taken into consideration the proportion of all women 10 years of age and over gainfully occupied decreased from 23.4 per cent in 1910 to 2I.I per cent in 1920"
 There was decrease in the number of women employed as servants, as farm laborers, as dressmakers, and as milliners.
 "On the whole the great change seems to have been in a decrease among women working in or for the home and in personal-service occupa-

EDUCATORS AND OTHERS OPPOSE NEW YORK STATE
 TERRORISTIC LAW

Albany, N. Y, Feb. o.-Nearly two score professors of Columbia univer- sity and other educational institutions urge the state senate committee on education to favor the repeal of the Lusk laws for the licensing of teach CTS and of public schools.
 The educators express thes belief that these laws should not be passed, but, having been passed in period of postwar excitement, their repeal may now be hastened as a sign to the country that the state of New York is recovering it's political sanity. To decide against the repeal of these laws at this time would tend to bring into question the capacity of the peo- pie of this state to promote the well fare of the schools without depending on laws that censor the opinions of citizens and continually imply sus- picion of the loyalty of schools and teachers"
 Under state law teachers and all other employees i'll the state and mu- nicipal service must take the "con- stitutional oath" as do officers of the national government

 Liability Law

Washington, Feb. o.-The control Ter general of the United States has ruled that the federal employees com pensation commission can not pav benefits except for personal injury in the performance of duty"
 The effect of this decision is shown in the case of an iron .molder who died two years ago of pulmonary tuberculosis as a result of being com pelled to work in a draft in the navy yard His widow Is now receiving $o667 a month, which will be cut off unless relief is afforded by congress.
 Instead of the government being a model for its treatment of disabled employees, the decision holds the fed eral compensation within stricter linn it's than possibly any state act.
 Representatives of the various or ganizations of federal employees have started a movement to secure legisla- ton that will re-establish former con- ditions.
