PARIS PIG IN SECOND PLACE
New England Annals Of f775 Show
French Animal Can Only Be
Ciassed as "Piker"

A Paris dispatch related recently
that a pig fed from the Halles and
ran down the Rue de Rivoli, upsetting
two gendarmes. She then went to a
department store, was carried up one
escalator, down another and found
refuge in the dress-goods department
In the basement, where she sank into
calm slumber. This Is well enough
In its way and for a European pig
but 1t has too many signs of accident.
1t may have amused the Parisians to
hear about this. Perhaps it may have
deepened their conviction that the
vile lumiere is the mother of novel
ties. But If so, they sadly mistake.
The New Hampshire Gazette of Janu-
airy 9, Its, contains the following ad-
vertisement: "a Pig Came to the
House of Mark Loud In Portsmouth
about fortnight ago-the Owner may
have him again by applying to I'll,
said Loud" The conscientious Loud
though feeling the greatest respect
and friendship for the pig that had
made him fortnight's visit, evidently
felt that he ought TO go home. Moth.
ing Is said about reward; that is left
to the delicacy of the pigs owner and
1t must have been an exceptionally in.
telligent pig. even for New England, to
have eft this pleasant impression on
Mr.. Loud. There is no evidence that
any dispatch was sent to the French
or English press about the incident,
although 1t Is far more interesting

Some of our property losses have
resulted from the inroads Of cracks

Recently an inventive fellow with
a knowledge of deadly gases decided
to capitalize his understanding Of pol

tories from thieves. Any movement
Of the door to which the gas container
Is attached, or any unusual jar, such
as would result from an explosion,
breaks the container and releases the

drilling 1t from the door likewise re-
leases the gas.
1t would be grand thing, from the
standpoint of safeguarding property,

EXPERIMENTS SHOW VALUE OF
LAMB AND MUTTON AS FOOD

| The production of sheep for wool
alone is rapidly on the wane in the
United States. More and more en-
phasis is being placed on the produc-
ton of lamb and mutton for the table,
although only 81 per cent of the meat
consumed by the average American
for the past five years was lamb or
mutton. This proportion should be
much larger, according to the United
States Department of Agriculture, as
mutton and lamb are among the most
healthful, nutritious, and palatable of
meats.
The reason for the limited use of
lamb and mutton throughout the CEN
trail section of the United States pro-
badly had its origin in the days of the
development of the great Corn Belt
region west of the Appalachian Noun
tains, department workers say. At
that time the sheep owned by the set
tiers of that region came largely from
the North Atlantic States and had
been developed almost without excep-
ton for wool production, regardless
of the inherent flavor of the meat.
The flesh of these animals was no
doubt tough, not so palatab1e as other
meats, and possibly, owing to the
crude methods of caring for it, much
of it was unfit for use. AS this sec
ton of the country has been some
what slower in the development of
mutton breeds of sheep, and as much
prejudice against the meat has been
handed down from generation to
generation, there has developed the
idea that the flesh of all sheep is not
appetizing and carries peculiar
favors.
There is a characteristic taste in
cooked mutton and lamb, due to the
chemical contents of the meat fat,
that makes it easy to distinguish
from other kinds of meat. The same /
is true of beef, chicken, venison, or |
rabbit. In order to prove that this
taste was not unwholesome and that
the meat was palatable, experiments
were made by the Bureau of Animal
Industry of the department, in col
operation with the Office of Home
Economics, which proved that lamb
and mutton are wholesome, appetiz-
ing, and economical meats for family
use, ranking well up with other
n ats n L cd value per pound. The
ct tina only small proportion of
sep ca asses are condemned under
yer .:-nt meat inspection furthers

hat H.. tton and lamb should be used
lore generally.

HELP JAPAN IMMEDIATELY

The New York Evening Post of
September says: Japan led for
eign nations in aiding San Francisco
when it was devastated by the worst
American earthquake in history ia
pan contributed more than half of
the total foreign subscriptions for
relief work. Records show that the
japanese gave $254,960, while the
total of foreign donations was
S474,875. All foreign subscriptions
were voluntary and unsolicited. The
San Francisco CONFUSION in April
1906, cost ASP lives and caused about
s200,000,000 property damage. The
property damage in Japan is tenta-
lively placed at between $4,000, 000,-
900 and s3,000,00O,O00 while the
death lists already have mounted in
to tens of thousands"
Only those who have experienced
what it meant to have San Francisco
cut off from the world, it's water sup
ply destroyed, a city without food or
shelter or transportation, can realize
the situation in Japan.
The writer saw San Francisco in
such a condition He saw four car
loads of food come in from his home
town four days after the fire and
could appreciate what quick action
meant in time of disaster. He
realized as only person can who had
witnessed such a spectacle, that food,
water, clothing, medical attention
shelter and sewerage are absolutely
essential Immediately to large body
of people left destitute, if the pop
ulation escapes starvation and ep,
idemics.
The San Francisco disaster was as
nothing compared with the present
situation in Japan-and yet we
thought it was bad at the time
The people across the Pacific NEAR
much to the United States and VIZ
now have an opportunity to do ;
great deed for humanity as well a
cement a friendship with Japan tina
will be a lasting blessing to thi
nation.
A ship load Of food and clothes to
day means more than ten ship load
after thousands have died from star
walton and exposure. Act now.

steadily in our view that which ao-
| pears to US the greatest interest OF
every true American, the consolida-
ton of our Union in which is in
volved our prosperity, felicity
safety, and perhaps our national ex-
istence. This important consideration
seriously and deeply impressed on
our minds, led each State in the Con-
vention to be less rigid on points of
inferior magnitude than might have
been otherwise expected; and thus
the Constitution which we now pre-
sent is the result of spirit of amity.
and of that mutual Difference and
concession which the peculiarity of
our political situation rendered in
dispensable.
The fundamental doctrines of de-
mocracy and liberty embodied in the
Constitution are principles for which
Masonry has always stood. In all
lands Freemasonry has dedicated its
candidates to the lofty teachings Of
freedom of religion, speech and edua-
ton, and popular sovereignty, and in
formulating the fundamental law of
the new commonwealth the trainers
OF the Constitution were putting in
to conrete form the ritualistic teach
ings of the Masonic lodge room.
William A. Sherman, Grand Mas
ter of Masons of California, in his
proclamation setting aside the week
of September II to be celebrated as
Constitution week in all California
lodges, says: ''This marvellous doe
ument of human liberty, admittedly
product of Masons, stands without
an equal. Magma Charta, wrested
from King John at Runnymede, was
the germ from which was established
the recognition of the rights of man;
but that historic document was
merely as good seed sown in the
worlds process of politial evolution.
Our forefathers of revolutionary
days, improved and enlarged the
scope Of free government by assur-
ing in our Constitution equal rights
to all, and from the spirit it displays
and the character and affiliation of |
the men who evolved it, this doc
ument has justly been termed
contribution to the science
Of government and the advancement
of modern civilization"

MASONS CELEBRATE
CONSTITUTION WEEK

Masonic Lodges Will Honor Men,
Members of the Craft, who Pre-
pared Historic Document
At the request of the American
Bar Association the week of Septem-
Der 18th is being celebrated through
out the nation as Constitution Week.
Masonic lodges are taking advantage
of the occasion to emphasize the
patriotic principles of the craft and
to honor the famous men of the Con-
lstitutional Convention who were
members of the Masonic fraternity.
The Constitutional Convention met
in Philadelphia in February, 1887,
and representatives from all the
states except Rhode Island were
present. The Convention included
many of the ablest men of the
nation, among whom were George
Washington, Alexander Hamilton,
Roger Sherman, James Madison, Ed
|mund Randolph, George Read, Ben
jamin Franklin, Rufus King, FL
bridge Gerry, Robert Morris, and
General Charles Coatesworth Pick
ney. It has been estimated that al
least SO of the IS members of the
constitutional Convention were Ma
sons.
These were the men, patriots and
statesmen, who wrought out the Con.
tstitution Of the United States, he SUI
fpreme safeguard of our righs anc
liberties. Gladstone speaking of this
historic document declared: "The
American Constitution is the mos
wonderful ever struck off at a giver
time by the brain and purpose Of
man."
On September II, 17S7, the worl
of the convention was completed, an6
the Constitution was signed and sub
mitted to the consideration of The
United States in Congress assembled

1, 1922 was enacted upon Mr.. Cole
mans recommendation, when he wa
Highway Commissioner. He nov
severely criticises the Governor be
cause of his estimate of the surplu,
automobile tax to construction.
Mr.. Coleman finds himself in acute
disagreement with some of his closes
allies as to most essential facts.
| O He differs with the Bankers
Committee in that he advocates the
diversion of automobile hense fund:
to the feeder roads and the Bankers
Committee opposes it. The Bankers
| Committee estimated interest
charges at $21, 100000 and Mr.. Cole
mans estimate is $31, 100000.
He also disagrees with the Bank
ers' Committee because, with the ex.
ception of the anticipated return
from the gas tax, the Bankers Com
mlttee agrees with the Auditors
figures, while Coleman claims they
are about $8,000,000 out of the way.
He again differs with the Bankers
Committee which says the bond issue
will complete the road construction
in nine years and Coleman says it
will take five.
Coleman is also at odds with the
News Leaders auditor, who prac-
tically approved the Governors
figures for 1923, while Coleman dis
credited them as being false to the
extent of millions.
There was never a commander-in-
chief who has been so discredited by
his own lieutenants.
Coleman, the Good Roads Associa-
ton, the News Leaders accountant,
the Bankers Committee agree upon
nothing except that bonds should be
issued.
The Bankers Committee says it
will cost ss3,OOO,OOO to complete the
System.
The News Leaders accountant
says it will cost 100000.
Coleman says it will cost S75, 000,-
900.
The Bankers Committee says it
will take nine years under the bond
plan, and twelve and a half years
under the pay-as-you-go plan to COM
plete the system.
Coleman says it will take five years.

teen years under the pay-as-you-go|
