INTERESTING SIDELIGHTS
OF PRESIDENTS VISIT

Among the numerous sidelights of
the visit of President Harding to
Idaho was the attention attracted by
the expeditions telephone service af-
forded the special train.
Before the train came to a full
stop at Pocatello, where the princi-
pal Idaho speech was made, the line
men were alongside connecting wires
as they kept up with the moving
train. BY the time the train was
placed the telephone circuit was in
operation on the train and in less
than two minutes members of the
party including press representatives,
secured connections with Washing
ton, New York and other points.
Voice Carrying Device
Another interesting feature cleo
trical was the amplifier arrangement
which enabled the president to speak
without straining his voice so h,
could be heard by those 800 feet
away as distinctly as by those stand
ing around the end of his car. n
The presidents voice was caught
by microphones placed on the rear
platform and carried to ampliiers
on top of the car, so arranged as
to number and angle that his voice
was projected in all directions.
A very unusual thing happened
at Pocatello. After the president
had finished his speech, he was pre-
sented with a horseshoe made by a
Boise Smithy from iron taken from
neckyoke found at the scene of
the massacre by Indians of Idaho
pioneers. The president did the un-
precedented thing of making another
speech, with the horseshoe as his
text, urging the people to get back
to a more simple life.
No Red" Ink

of Idaho greeted the president at Po-

Flowers and Food

Between Idaho flowers and food,
the presidential party was enrap-
tured and possibly stuffed Rainbow
trout and other delicacies were piled
into the larder. The presidents
car was like a conservatory, especial
ly to the delight OF Mrs. Harding,
and the big pantry was crowded. The
chef was at a loss to know how to
store all the good things and he was
getting a bit fused when a big sup
ply of trout from Maclay was hand
ed in. His face lighted. Come to
me, you beautiesl" he exclaimed.
Lordy how I'd like to catch some
like you"

ing Americas business man, has
been so favorably impressed with
the possibilities of the alligator
pear that he contemplates going in
to the business on a large scale,
planting seyenty-five acres to them
during the first year.
The alligator pear is described
by Layman B. Veeder, an expert
now here promoting their planting
as comparable to the Keifer, which
once was extensively raised in
Sumter county, and the cultivation
of which was discontinued solely be-
cause of their blighting qualities, it
being almost if wholly impossible to
prevent this condition after the
trees reached maturity. The alli-
gator pear, however, is said to pos
sess superior qualities. being much
preferred for Gaming because OF
the smaller quantity of sugar neces-
sary in their preservation. They
are also said to be better eating
fruit, ripening much earlier after
gathering, as compared with the
Keifer variety.
Trees now being painted will not
come into bearing until their fourth
year and the first crop is usually a
small one, compared with later
yield, which have reached in ex-
ceptional cases as high as 100
bushels to tree, such trees being,
OF course, very old. During the
propagation and growing period the
trees must be highly fortified and
cultivated constantly, but after they
come into bearing both cultivation
and fertilizer should be abandoned
to Secure the best results, accord

A Jewish Cartoon Artist,

Show me, says in substance an
ancient Jewish proverb. the worlds
funmakers and l will show you man
kinds greatest benefactors. Now, in
this country at least, "Rube" Gold
berg, next to Charlie Chaplin, is per-
haps one of the most popular fun
makers. With almost two hundred
papers to serve him. his brilliant
shafts of wit and humor are carried
to millions of American homes. He Is
the delight of the old and the joy of
the young. His name in the cartoon
world is as well known as that of
Babe Ruth on the base ball field and
Benny Lenards in the prize ring;
and, together with these two, his in
come outmatches that of a railroad
president. No other cartoon artist, it
is said. can manufacture chuckles so
well and so skillfully as he.
Although drawing was "Rube's'' ia
vorite occupation when he was yet
a child, and he drew many a comic
picture behind his teachers back, his
father did not relish an artists voca
tion for his son. He wanted him to
study something useful besides orna
mental, and so, much against the
boys protests, he was pressed into an
engineering career But you could no
more keep him from drawing than
you keep the sun from shining. De-
spite Goldberg's honest intentions to
reform and forget art, he kept on
supplying the college paper with
many comic pictures. In this way he
had an opportunity of expressing the
funny things he never dared to say.
He executed good-looking lampoons
of his teachers and friends. In the
senior year he won a prize for post
er design, after which he was sent
out into the world with a diploma
and best wishes for successful ca
reer in engineering.
But Goldberg soon returned TO his
first love and began to draw funny
pictures for the papers, this time not
for fun but for money. This he found
less funny than his pictures. He held
many jobs until he was discovered.

But. Goldberg can use the pen as

that were il not for the latter he
might have become a writer whose
fame would have outshone that of

Armed with "knuckle dusters," life
preservers" and like weapons. two
hundred 10e per cent Teutons invaded
the Vienna University and assaulted
Jewish students. 1t was a great
moral victory for Teutonic prestige.
Its noble representatives of the high
er philosophy Of life and Christian
brotherhood broke their way into
each lecture room, halted the pro-
fessors in their instruction, ordered
the Jewish students present to leave
the building, and beat those young
men who insisted upon their right to
sit unmoleSted at the feet of their
great teachers.
In recent years there has probably
been no more pathetic exhibition of
Teutonic imbecility than this. The
demonstration was staged as protest
against the refusal or the Austrian
senate to introduce the clause de-
manding the limitation of Jewish stu
dents in the universities to 10 per
cept. Austrian inteIlectuals fear the
competition of more than 10 per cent
of university graduated Jews among
the educated population, as if the
lack Of the university education has
ever kept the good man down. The
demonstration, following so close upon
the Bavarian revolt, is merely anoth-
er illustration of the old story that
when political or economic move
ment in central Europe fails. all the
pont-up anger and disappointment Is
vented upon defenseless JeWS-the
age-old European Scapegoat.
