MONT. WHEAT GROWER
URGES PRES. COOLIDGE

Washington, Nov. 13.=Thomas d.
Campbell of Hardin, Mont, intro
duced to President Coolidge by Man
aging director Meyer of the War FL
nance corporation as the biggest
wheat grower in the world" told the
executive that there should be an
increased traiff on wheat, either by
congressional action or through ope-
ration of the flexible provisions of
the Fordney-M cCumber act. Mr..
Campbell said talk of price fixing IS
applied to wheat is absurd, and that
buying of the surplus by the govern
ment would not be the proper solu-
ton. 9
It was represented by the Mon
tanan, who during the last five years
has transformed 10000 acres of
virgin prairie into perhaps the most
wonderful wheat farm ever known,
and by five times the largest of re-
cord. that an incease of Is cents a
bushel in the traiff would do on
siderable good, as that represents
approximately the difference between
Winnipeg and Minneapolis markets.
He believes this can be obtained
through operation of the flexible
provisions of the tariff. Mr.. Camp
bell asked the President to urge Con
gress to revise the wheat and wheat
products schedule upward, should he
not consider it feasible to utilize the

Still the sound fell upon ner ears
and then a bright golden light flood
ed-no, not her own little room, but
a beautiful garden Of roses.
"Patter, patter, patter."
Eyes, it was after all the sound OF
many little feet she heard, for at h a
moment around a big cluster OF rose
bushes Mary saw hundreds of dainty
little creatures running toward the
steps of a castle with a wide open
door.
All the little fairies-Mary knew
they must be fairies, ven though they
were not in a book-were laughing
and singing as their feet went patter-
ing along the path. Up the steps they
ran and Mary heard n fairy say
ing: "We must make our W sun
shine, sisters, it is going to rain. But
the roses need it to make them beau
tiful."
Eyes, and the grass and the leaves
and all growing things" said another.
"We will laugh and be happy and the
sun will shine for us indoors while the
rain is giving drink to Mother Natures
children outside"
"Patter, patter, patter," went the
feet of the little fairies, and Mary
ran after them, meaning to go in the
castle with them and see how they
made their sunshine, for at that mo-
ment she felt the raindrops on her
face.
But instead she saw standing by her
chair the laughing face of her little
Cousin Betty and the %raindrops
she felt were Betty's wet fingers.

Mary. ooh, 1 had such fun running

) Betty's smiling face looked so much
like one of the little sunshine fairies
she had seen in the rose garden that
for a second Mary was not quite sure
where she was. But it did not take
long to find out and in a short time
she had forgotten the rain outside and
was laughing with her little cousin
Just like the fairies in her dream.
Mary was making her own sun
shine just as we all can do if we only
try hard enough.

ADA
By MILDRED

n DA is the fortunate possessor OF
"A two sources of derivation; like
wise she may choose her own signifi-
canoe, since there is considerable con-
fiict in translating the name. Some
etymologists take Ada to be an adap-
tation of the early Biblical name, Adali,
meaning ornament, which u fire.
Others believe that it really comes
from the Teutonic Oda, which signi-
fed rich, or the old Saxon Ide, mean
ing happy. In all events, Ada may
be said to find happiness in riches
which are exploited by ornaments.
The first feminine form correspond
ing to Ada was Audur, the nam be
slowed upon a beautiful viking, one
of the first Icelandic settlers. Auda
or Aida named the wife of Orlando,
the Paladin. A queen of Italy in 926
was so called, and the name was still.
In use in 1893 by the feminine mem
bers of the house of Este.
The low German form, Fad, came
to be translated as Ide and appears
as such in the Cambria register. AS
Ida, it was bestowed upon the coun
tess of Boulogne, granddaughter OF
King Stephen. Ada seems to be pure
ly an English usage, until it's adoption
in this country.
The ruby is Ada's talismanic gem
1t is said to fulfill for her its promise
of courage, and invulnerability, and
to shield her from adverse fortune
Wednesday is her lucky day and 8 hel
lucky number.

THE FINGER NAILS

As A general rule, when the
"a nails are short, it is a sign of
sharpness and quickness of intellect
and the ability to learn easily. These
indications must be confirmed, of
course, by a study of the line of the
head, which must be good; that is,
clear and strong.
If the line of Apollo, which runs up
into the finger of Apollo, the third
finger, is also good, the short nails
near wit, and in some cases, irony.
"Short-nailed subjects make the best
journalists, By reason of their love of
criticism and their readiness to engage
in any dispute or contention" says
Heron-Allen, a well-known writer N
palmistry. He holds also that in a
good-natured and happy hand, or in a
lazy hand, short nails denote a spirit
of m6ckery and of good-humored sar-
casm, frivolity, criticism and contradic-
ton.
OF course, it must be understood
that by short nails are meant those
that are short from base to tip, not
those that are shortened by the nervous
habit of biting them. The latter are
an indication of nervousness, melan-
choly and worry, especially if the I'm
ger tips are spatulated.

THE
RIGHT THING AT
THE RIGHT TIME
FOR DINNE GUESTS
BY MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE

THE first duty of the man or woman
l. who has received an invitation to
dine at the house Of a friend is to
send either an acceptance or regret to
that invitation. There is no function
where an even number of guests is
more essential to it's success than a
dinner. A dinner engagement once
made can be broken only for some
vital reason, such as sickness, death
In the family, etc. | have known a
girl to accept an invitation of this
character, then, a day or two before
the dinner, decide that her blue gown
was too soiled, and her pink one was
out of date, and finally write a hasty
note to her hostess, saying that she
finds she is unable to be present. This
is simply ~inexcusable.
Guests should arrive at the house
of their hostess about ten minutes be-
fore the hour set. 1t is almost as
grave a mistake to arrive thirty min
utes too soon as ten minutes too late.
AS a rule no room is set aside for the
men, as they ome in evening dress
and simply remove their coats and
hats in the hall, but a dressing room
is always ready for the women.
When the dinner is announced the
hostess asks the men to escort the
ladies to the dining room. She desig-
mates to each man the woman whom
he is to take in. He then offers his
left arm to that woman and finds their
seats, which will be indicated by place
cards. The gentleman then draws out
the chair, seats his companion, and
seats himself. 1t is, of course, neces-
sary that the hostess be seated first.
All seated, the guests take their nap
kins and, opening them unostentatious-
ly, lay them across their laps. The
first course Is usually on the table
when the guests enter the dining
room. The hostess gives the signal to
eat by doing so herself. In this coun-
try it is not usual to begin eating until
all present have been served, but in
England it is considered better form
to begin as soon as you are served.
1t is in very bad form to refuse a
course even though you do not wish
to eat it. You may, If you choose, re-
fuse some dish that is passed but you
should never refuse the course. If
you do not like soup, that is no rea-
son why you should not have a plate
of it set before you. You need not
indulge in it to any extent but make
a pretense of 1t.
Sometimes after dinner it is the Gus
ton for the ladies to adjourn to the
drawing room and have coffee there,
leaving the men of the party to enjoy
a stag smoke. This is the English
custom but more and more we are
adopting the French method of adj
journing to the drawing room all to-
gether.

FIRE DRILL SAVEDI l.200 CHILDREN INI
 LANETT SCHOOL FIRE|

LANETT, Ala, Jan 3.-The fire drill probably saved the lives of scores of school children here yesterday. Twelve hundred pupils were in the Lanett school building when it was discovered on fire shortly after l o'clock, 1t was announced today, and within 10 minutes after the first alarm was sounded the entire two story structure was mass of flames.
 School. officials consider the escape of the children without the loss Of life little short of miracle. They at tribute the escape to frequent fire drills, when the children line up and await the signal to march.
 Yesterday, however, the teachers were handicapped by finding that one of the doors to the second floor could not be opened. This fact added to the fear of the children as they saw the dense smoke pouring into the room through the. only uoor oE exit, but de spite the handicaps all pupils known to have been in the building at the time of the fire were accounted for today.
 Little change was noted by physi- clans in the condition of three tots most seriously injured in the stam- pede by the children,
 Work on new building will be started immediately, it was announced tonight.

Mine Owners Object to Seek ing Aid From Fact-Finding Commission Lewis Re-

By Associatsd Presu

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-A plan on which working conditions and wage agreements can be placed before the joint meeting of operators and miners from IS bituminous coal fields of the country was being sought here tonight by a special committee of operators, appointed after the joint meeting adjourned this afternoon.
 The committee was expected to formulate plan to report to the operators tomorrow prior to the re- sumption of the joint conference.
 That the plan will be different than any submitted before to the miners is indicated by operators, who said John Lewis, head of the miners, had made clear that the dis trict plan of settlement, sliding scale and arbitration, submitted at special reorganization committee meeting here in December and re- jected, would not be considered at this meeting.
 Ask Commission
 It is the opinion of numerous oper- ators that little difficulty would be encountered in reaching an agreement along the lines of the old central competitive field. taking in western Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana and Illi- nois, were 1t not for federal indict- ments which one operator asserted were hanging over the heads of at least half the operators present.
 A proposal that a special commit tee go before the fact-finding com mission appointed by President Hard- irg and ask for the attitude of the commission and the administration as 10 resumption of negotiations along this line wast tmet with much oppo- sition on the part of operators, who declared such a move might be inter preted a favoring interference by the government.
 Lewis refused to comment on the discussions of the joint conference.
 Opinions of several operators were that the conference, which Is expect ed to continue two or three days, will finally result in an agreement on me- gotiations along the old central com petltive field
