Speaking Of Brazil

IRON one of its readers in far-off Brazil,
r. The Journal is In receipt Of highly in
teresting letter which begins, Dear
Folks at Home" and gossips engagingly
about the centennial exposition now in prog
ress at Rio de Janeiro It was a hundred
years ago last September that Brazilian indie
pendence was proclaimed; in commemoration
whereof a worlds fair was undertaken, which
has proved to be admirable In scope and
character, but not a material success. On
spacious tract of land in Rio, which the gov
eminent spent immense sums in grading and
identifying, marble buildings were erected by
France, Belgium, Portugal, Italy, Sweden
England, Japan and the United States. At
tractive exhibits were installed, and diver
sions provided in abundance. The attend
ance. however, seems not to have been what
80 excellent enterprise deserved. Never
theless, much good is certain to result in the
way of quickened understanding and deep
sned friendship between Brazil and the ma
lions joining her in the centennial celebra-
ton.
Our correspondent, Mr.. NJ. K. Wright, of
the United States embassy at Rio, declares
himself especially pleased that so many
Americans have visited the exposition. Last
month (his letter is dated April 24) great
swarm of them, surgeons and doctors,
came They certainly made a hit here.
Then, too, the different states in the union
have sent delegations. They all have been
warmly receFed-and Brazilians are not a
people who forget friendly visits" Secretary
Hughes, of the state department, accompa-
MED by special mission, also was in attend
ance. The nations that erected buildings on
the exposition ground purpose to use them,
says Mr.. Wright, as future embassy quarters.
1.-THE government of Brazil made one long
avenue through this new land, which is called
the Avenida OF Nations. All except England
will have embassies there; she will donate
her building to Brazil, for use as college or
school of some sort" The American exhibits
are in charge Of Colonel o. c. Collier, Of
Texas, to whom Mr.. Wright gives unstinted
praise. "AlI in all, the United States govern
ment pavilion is the most attractive here,
and the most popular for visitors. Colonel
Collier has been untiring in his efforts to
make our part in the exposition success,
and has succeeded" Especially inviting, it
seems, have been motion pictures portrayIng
activities of the navy, government irrigation
projects, and scenes from American city and
home life. "The Brazlians are pleased to
learn what our country is like, for they count
the American people their good friends, and
do not fail to show, at every opportunity, how
they feel"
Thinking Americans all highly value the

THE ,WANDERER
BY BERTON BRALEY

VIZ HEN I leave home to wander
w About the world a space,
To see what's cover yonder"
In some far-distant place,

Wherever I may fit,
Friends won't be heavy-hearted--
Not bit.
I trust they will not worry
When we are out of touch,
Nor get in any furry
If 1 don't write them much.
I hope they'll do without me
And shed no tears at home,
Nor greatly fret about me-
AS L roam.

If comrades still are gay
Amid their lives eventful,
While I am gone away;
But still, cannot stif1e
The hope, friends, countrymen,
You'll miss me-just a trifle
Now and then.

The Sunday school lesson was on Job. The

the painful existence of Job to his youthful
audience. To this end he was dwelling at

tale held up his hand.

violations would mean the revocation of their licenses. The other 1sb were all drivers under suspension who were presenting an appeal for the return of their licenses. Oi these 1sb, two were given indefinite suspensions; one an additional year added to his suspen- sion: four sixty day suspensions; four thirty day suspensions; two were forced to continue under their original suspensions; and five were given tenn porary suspensions pending reports and decisions of higher courts.
 On the other hand four were taken off the black list and were given limit cd licenses and one was given condi- tional driving privileges. i29 licenses were returned internationally and the suspensions immediately lifted. The rest of the drivers failed to report or had their decisions reserved.

BUSINESS DULL IN
 ISOLATED RUSSIA
City Of Petrograd in ThroS of
 Great Depression

Petrograd. April 27. - Petrograd still appears as an isolated city and, in comparison with Moscow. business life is as dull as in majority of soviet provincial towns.
 The population of Petrograd fell to about 100000 during the years of civil war, epidemics and eyacuations. and it has risen but slightly since the coming of the new economic pol icy. Housing conditions, therefore, are very favorable in comparison with the congestion of Moscow, where two or more persons live in nearly every room. Here families of two and three persons may enjoy five, six or even ten or twelve room apartments. while scores of buildings are empty and nearing ruin for want of heating. Spacious warehouses are without goods.
 Living is 50 per cent cheaper than in Moscow. There is plenty of food and very little business. Only the Nevsky Prospekt, Petrograd's chief avenue. and few other of the prin- cipal streets show signs of life, thanks to the open shops and offices of the various state ; concerns. All other streets, especially in the once fashion, able suburbs, look empty and de- serted. Only the electric lighting of

SMALL CARS TO RUN
 AT INDIANAPOLIS
Thus Far Eleven Machines Are
 Entered for Classic

Indianapolis. April 27.-Eleyen cars have been entered in the international flve hundred mile automobile race to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May 30. according to T. E. Meyers, manager of the track.
 Six drivers have sent in their en- tries. They are Tommy Milton, 1921 champion; Cliff Durant, Ralph De Palma, Joe Boyer, Harry Hartz and Eddie Hearne. Milton will drive a car he has built himself. Durant also will pilot one of the four machines he has constructed. De Palma and Boyer will be behind the wheels of two of three cars that are being built on the Pacific coast. Hearne and Hartz will team with Durant.
 Louis Chevrolet is completing work here on three speedsters. He has options on eight prominent pilots.
 The race this year will be for cars having a piston displacement of not more than 122 cubic inches. The ma chimes in most instances will be single seaters. Each must be provided with q reflector so that the driver may sec another car pulling up from behind. They will be smaller in every way than previous contestants. The en- zines will be smaller than the smallest motors used for commercial or pleas-a ure purposes in this country.

FIERY, ITCHY SKIN QUICKLY SOOTKED
 WITH SULPHUR

Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant cream, will soothe and heal skin that is irri- tated or broken out with eczema; that is covered with ugly rash or pim- pies, or is rough or dry. Nothing subdues fiery skin eruptions so quick Iy, says a noted skin specialist.
 The moment this sulphur prepara ton is applied the itching stops and after two or three applications, inc eczema is gone and the skin is de- lightfully clear and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as skin remedy be- cause it destroys the parasites that cause the burning, itching or diafg- urement. Mentho-Suphur always heals eczema right up.
