Behind the Mask
By BFRTON BRALEY


You can't always tell by their faces
How people are feeling within,
For pain doesn't always leave traces,
Nor JOY always show in grin.
You find that each life has its leaven
OF things that go III or go we'll.
We each have our own little heaven,
We each have our own little hell.
II every man told you his story,
His innermost secrets and hopes,
His moments of uttermost glory.
The depths in which blindly he
gropes.
You'd find. we're he seventy-seven
Or still in youths glamorous spell,
He lives In his own little heaven.
He writhes in his own little hell.
It may be that sometime hereafter
Well come to a final reward,
A paradise thrilling with laughter,
A hades of tortures abhorred;
But anyhow, life has its leaven
OF sorrows and blisses as we'll;
We each have our own little heaven,
We each have our own little hell.

AS to the Tariff

Naturally the Democrats will howl
all they're worth about the low price
of agricultural products-with wheat
costing more to grow than the farmers
can sell 1t for.
The Republicans, when they went
into power, put the tariff away up.
saying the farmers would benefit by
plenty Of protection. Prices of every.
thing the farmers have to BUY have
stayed high, but prices of things they
have to SELL have slumped.
The Republicans claim 1t would
have been worse. yet. but for the
tariff. This doesn't satisfy the
farmers, judging by the Minnesota
senatorial election result.
The farm bloc leaders dictated the
tariff. in so far as agriculture was
concerned, so they can't arraign the
Republicans with a very good grace.
but the Democrats can. They said
all along that the tariff increases were

Wheat
Lebanon Daily Reporter

kAltUdUUN DaIIy INUpUELdIT
The price of wheat is now like the
price of hogs, on the days when the
supply taken to the market exceeds
the demand. the price is low. Hold
the wheat and watch the price go up.
Whether this, can be done this year,
even with the help of Uncle Sam, in
time to help the farmers is a big
question. But If the farmers get dis
couraged and quit raising such large
quantities of food products, then the
poor consumer will be the one who is
crying out. Somebody always gets it.

What makes rain cool on a hot

day?
Moisture is always present in the
atmosphere In very fine mist-like
drops, and 1t requires a current of
cold air to condense it into rain
clouds. Cold being necessary to cause
rain, the raindrops themselves are
cold. Another reason is that the air
at the height from which the rain
falls is much colder than that near
the surface of the earth, which is
warmed by the cams heat radiated
back, and not by the suns rays dl.
rect. The farther the air is from the
earth the colder it becomes.

Whatever may be the judy

it be applause or censure directed
of "Six DAYS. the feature at

dav. we are of the opinion that

the credit for "Six Days" and not

we venture the opinion that II
"Six Days" is not the best screen
rendition from her virulent pen,
then something is hard put for
this first rating.
OF course, six Days" is
GIynistic throughout, but 1t is
tempered with a delicacy of re-
straint which gives it a human
side rather than that of theo-
retical or pedagogical jamboree.
we like the place, and frankly,
we don't mind saying so.
To the coefficient of we'll
balanced story has been added a
cast which, in its major parts,
does credit to itself and to the
piece entrusted to its keeping.
We could not wish to see finer
portrayals of highly emotional
order than those given by Cor
lime Griffith as Laline Kingston.
We refer in particular to the pro-
longed dug-out set where a girl
and man were battling for their
lives against seeming inevitable
odds. Frank Mayo, who is CO.
starred with Miss Griffith as
Dion Leslie has added small
feather to his cap. While not
prominently featured, others of
the cast include: Myrtle Sted-
man. Claude King, Maude George.
Charles Clary, Evelyn Walsh and

We might say of 'tSix Days
that 1t is fashioned by ''The
