coo1IDcE,s coBBLER FRIEND

One of the first acts of the new president was to write an affectionate letter to an old personal friend back home who still works at the cobbler's bench. MT. Coolidge showed that he thought lot of the humble man who sticks to his last, says what he thinks, and thinks what he pleases. There are few thoughtful men who cannot learn something from the honest, however obscure they may be. The point of view of the lowly is sometimes just as important as the intellectual angle of the mighty. Disregard of this has been responsible for more than one revolution which changed the whole order of things. Why should not the president have a cobbler friend? There is something about the occupa- ton that stimulates reflection. No cobbler was known to be an anarchist ; most of them are law-abiding and law-respecting. One of England's greatest statesmen was a cobbler.

 and with such an absence of accidents that most citizens are scarcely aware that the government employs mail planes to total of hundreds of thou sands of miles year. For many months the Pacific and Atlantic coast have been brought closer and closer togeth- CT, until present schedules are remark ably short. Now, with the introduction of six hundred miles of night flying, it is planned to give a coast-to-coast service of twenty-eight hours, very triumph for the department, with it's unblemished fatality record. The dis tance or route has been divided into three zones, the first being from New York to Chicago, the second, Chicago to Cheyenne, and the third, Cheyenne to San Francisco. The night flying will be done over the Great Plains,

IF CAN BE SOLVED

Now that both anthracite operators and miners are meeting with an ap- parently sincere purpose of arriving at fair adjustment of items in dispute, serious attention is directed to the merits of the wage claims. The miners propose an increase amounting to ap- .proximately twenty per cent, saying that such an increase is necessary in order to compare with recent increases in steel and other industries. The op- orators reply that the increase would add approximately two dollars a ton to the cost of mining coal, and that it is doubtful whether the consumer would be able to pay that much more for his fuel.
 The discussions have not yet brought out to what extent the wage demand is influenced by the fact that anthra- cite miners work only part of the year, but have to meet living expenses for the full year. This situation is one properly for the coal commission to inquire into. If the anthracite indus try has come to be manned through an objectionable policy of not mining coal for storage or in advance of the demand, then the public should not longer be forced to bear the bur den of this wrong system to the profit of the operators. By proper storage policy anthracite or any other coal may be mined continuously, with the surplus held in storage during periods of slack demand, just as cotton, wheat and other commodities are handled, Such policy would give steady work to the miners, tend to correct over manning of the industry, and would ] furnish them a greater annual income on a smaller rate than is now the case. A solution of the problem in the pub lie interest would also wipe away many of the present causes of complaint and disagreement between operators and men.

POOR BOYS WHO
 BECAME FAMOUS By Frederick HOuk Law
John Roach

An Irish boy, with tousled hair and freckled face, stood on the deck of a ship in 1929 and looked at the American coast. There 1t rose before him. dim and blue like the visions in his dreams. At that moment, however, he had no visions; he was simply curious about what he should find when he went on shore. He was opti- mistic and healthy and happy, and he had no time for dreams. All that he wanted was chance to work with his strong arms. He was John Roach, and he had come from a little unheard-of place In the south of Ireland, and he was going to be an American citizen. That was all he knew concerning his future. As a matter of fact, he was going to work so well his two strong arms would, in the end, make ships far bigger and far superior to the one on which he was at that moment standing. He was to develop from a very or dinary laborer into one of the worlds great builders of ships.
 When he landed in the new country he began at once to look for work that he could do with hls muscles. He was only boy, but he was strong and willing, and he had assurance sufficient to en- able him to take any job that o1- fered. He found work in an iron foundry and there, day after day, toiled long and hard in the grimy business. As he grew older he gained experience and learned more and more about iron and the work of the foundry. He became ona of the most skillful workers In the business.
 Having a great deal of origlnaI initiative Roach began to plan Tor his future; for he by no means wished to remain forever humDle toiler for others. He sat up a foundry of his own and made IL pay. In fact, he made It pay SD well, by thrift and good work and attention to business, that at the age of fifty-three he was able to buy a great iron works nat ural step in advance of the ioun- dry work. Again he made his work bring rich rewards. Now ne looked to the step still higher and at fifty-seven bought a ship ward. Here he made iron ships for to the last he remained a
 uorlxer in iron. He sent out or his wards ship after ship, untl he hacame noted as leader in snip building. In all his long life of saventy-two years he showed in- itiative, energy and the oesire u take the next step aheao'

DEVELOP WORLD MARKETS


 Among the numberless foolish sug- gestions for the remedy of the wheat situation there occasionally bobs up one that has some sense to it. One of the latest of these is that the poorer grades be fed to farm livestock. Wheat is a splendid stock feed, but is seldom so used because of its usually high market value. When the time comes, however, when wheat turned into pork or beef or mutton or poultry or eggs will bring more than when sold directly, then to-feed it is the usual practice of the mixed farmers of the Central States, most of whom .hav& plenty of stock at all times. In the wheat belt proper, however, where wheat is the leading crop, and where wheat farmers do not keep livestock, there needs to be some medium of selling the surplus wheat to dairies and livestock raisers, perhaps through the cooperative bureaus.
 The suggestion that the wheat acreage be reduced is merely to avoid the solution of the question, not to solve it. Although We in this country always have plenty, there is always a shortage of food somewhere in the world. Hundreds of millions exist without knowing how they will get through any year. There is constant shortage in the total food supply. Wheat is one of the most staple and condensed forms in which food may be transported and kept in storage. Instead of raising less of it, we should actually produce more of it. Increased production, however, should be pre- ceded by some systematic machinery for selling the surplus to those who need it.
 The real solution of the wheat prob- lem is that which confronts every man. ufacturer of new article. He knows that he must create market for his output, even though hitherto no mar ket has existed and no demand has arisen. There are coast Hottentots who own and operate automobiles. There are other Hottentots who never heard of automobiles. The only diff ference between the two groups is that one has had wider opportunity than the other to develop wish for auto mobiles. With wheat the salesman would have less trouble, for hunger and the desire for food are universal human traits. When people are starv- ing they will eat wheat, even thougt they live in regions where the cereaI is novelty.
 There is worldwide potentiality o1 demand for all of America's surplus food products. When Americans sci themselves resolutely to develop that potentiaIity into an active and con stant demand, then we shall need tc have no discussion of acreage reduc tion in any of our field crops.

MOTHERS OF FAMOUS
 MEN
The Mother of Gustavus AdoIfus
Before all things honor they N..A l.. .... L l. III


 Before all things honor they father and thy mother!'
 So wrote the father of Gustavus Adolfus to his son, then a small boy. The instruction was well needed. In particular. Gustavus Adolfus honored his mother, and because of her influence changed the history of Europe. His mother was the Princess Christine of Schleswig- -Holstein. It happened that her grandfather was that powerful leader, Philip of Hesse. who was a friend of Martin Lu- ther.
 The story of that friendship had been handed down in the family, and so Christine of Schleswig- -Hol- stein was all the more ready to aid her husband in influencing her son, Gustavus Adolfus. to favor the cause of national freedom. Aside from all great questions, the Princess Christine was a woman who gave herself whole-heartedly both to the man she married, to the country over which she be- came queen, and to the son whom she named Gustavus Adolfus.
 When the child was mere baby she took him, in accordance with the custom of the times-for wha- mother is not more or less super stitious?-to a wise old astrologer. Having studied the stars with great care the astrologer told the anxious mother that her son, Gus tavus Adolfus, would lead career that would be full of glory, and that he would meet death in bat tie. At the first of this prophecy the queen glowed with pride; at the second she burst into tears. What mother wishes to read the full story Of her sons career!
 Gustavus Adolfus beame one of the most famous of all warrior kings, a second Alexander the Great, and he died in battle, fight ing bravely for his country.
