Must Be So.

The late William Rockefeller said
in an interview given not long before
his death:
'Rich men have pretty well re-
gained the public's respect, but do you
remember how, 20 years ago. every
rich man was universally conceded
to be villain?
mo proof was produced; only Law
son said so, the muckrakers by the
thousand said so, and accordingly the
public accepted this say-so for the
truth.
1T reminds me of the schoolboy
who was asked by his teacher to give
three proofs that the earth was round.
He replied promptly:
"'You say so, father says so. and
mother says So"

Early Use of Gas in a Theater.

According to bulletin issued re-
Gently by the New York state commit
tee on public utility information, a
playful Of the Covent Garden theater
London, dated 1917, carries this an
nouncement:
"The proprietors respectfully inform
the public that an entirely new method
Of lighting the theater has been adopt
ed, effected by a magnificent chande-
lier, which, from the center of the
ceiling, diffuses a soft and brilliant
light around, without obstructing the
view Of a single spectator. In its eff

800 lamps, and the heat is directly car
ried off by tube communicating with
the open air" The light, which was
not mentioned by name, was gas, and
the Covent Garden theater was among
the first public buildings to use it.

Another Whack at Lawyers.

During the course of a trial some
years ago, a witness was asked by
the prosecuting attorney if he knew
what it meant to take an oath.
He replied:
"To take an oath means that you
swear to tell the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the TRUTH
what happens if you do not tell
the truth?" asked the judge.
IF you do not tell the truth, your
honor" replied the witness, 'it means
that you are dishonored in the sight
of God, dishonored in the sight of
MANN fact, you are dishonored in
the sight of everyone except law
yers. -Everybcdy's.

At political gathering man named

persona non grata to many in the audi

their tumult.
The chairman vainly tried to restore
order; at last, getting exasperated. he
shouted at the top of his voice: "Will

Relics of Old Civilization

Ruined remains of a very ancient
civilization, much older than the Egyp-
tian, have been found on the Kola
peninsula, in Lapland, between the
Arctic ocean and the White sea. This
announcement is made in a dispatch
from Petrograd which says a Russian
expedition, led by Professor Bart
senko, has just returned with news of
the discovery. Pyramid-shaped tombs
were found, and there were traces of
dwellings and temples reared long
before the days of Tutankhamen.

Republicans United on This.

On the other hand, the Republican
leaders say that determination of the
American people to have nothing to do
with the League of Nations is just as
fixed as it was in 1920. 1t is true that
the Republicans are divided on he
question of the wisdom Of President
Harding's proposal concerning members
ship in the international Court Of
Justice, but seemingly there is no split
at all on the matter of the League Of
Nations itself. The opposition to the
league will be just as marked in the
Republican campaign next year as it
has been in the past. Everything which
comes from the Republican national
committee headquarters in the form
of party propaganda proves this to be
the fact.
Several organizations intended to
promote American good will toward
the League of Nations have been
formed recently, and are at work. One
of them is directed by former Associ-
ate Justice of the Supreme Court John
Hessin Clarke. The body of league
supporters is extraordinarily busy. 1t
is expressing its views just as former
President Wilson would have them ex-
pressed There are few anti-league
organizations as such, but there are
scores of organizations which stand
opposed to entrance into the interna-
tional body. These organizations are
formed for various purposes but they
