We are Orthodox. Get that fact
into your heads at the outset. Yet
do not condemn to He'll Fire those
who do not agree with us. We even
have sneaking admiration for an
honest doubter.
A man may doubt all we believe
to be true, and yet be fine char
acter, leading life of absolute rec
titude.
Such man was the late John
Morley, a scholar and statesman.
1t has been said that England had
three honest Johns--namely, John
Bright, the Quaker; John Burns,
the Engineer, and John Morley, the
journalist"
We will quote from an article by
P. W. Wilson, in the New York
Times:
Reason has her saints as we'll as
religion, and Morley was one of
them. Reared amid the tremendous
affirmations of the Protestant faith,
he dared to doubt when doubt was
tantamount to rebellion. Newman
resolved those doubts by conversion
TO Rome. Ruskin found salvation
in the lanscapes of Turner and the
earlier Gothic architecture of Italy
and France. Gladstone was content
with the Oxford movement in the
Anglican Church and in the arith-
metical certitudes of British bud
get. Morley was fascinated by the
lucid spell of John Stuart Mill, and
he said to himself and the world,
Il do not deny, | do not affirm, for
do not know" He became an ag-
nostic. And from agnosticism, he
never swerved. From world that
he did not attempt to explain, he
passes calmly to whatever world
lies beyond,

BOTH FELL

Two cowboy partners, Red and
Slim, promised their girls that they
would quit drinking for six months.
About two weeks later they went
TO town. They knocked around for
while and then separated for an
hour or so, after which they got on
their horses and started back for
the ranch.
Red was inclined to talk, but
Slim was very silent. After they
had ridden for awhile, Red turned
to Slim and said: "What you so
silent about? 1t amt natural"
"Ah," replied Slim, ~ promised
Bess I'd quit drinkin' for six

NO REAL DEMOCRAT LIVING

The threat of George M. Bailey,
the paragrapher of the Houston
(Tex.) Post to vote for Andrew
Jackson in 1924 might be carried
out by Democrats everywhere with
great deal of good judgment. For
a vote for Andrew Jackson, dead,
would show better sense than vote
for any of the living Democrats who
are being talked of as presidential
possibilities. The voter would at
least manifest appreciation of a
great man. He can't do that if he
votes for any of the living entries.-

REED OR FIBER FURNITURE VERY PRACTICAL

How to cut the high cost of fur
niture? Aside from picking up an
tique furniture and doing the refin-
ishing at home, the problem can be
solved by using reed or wicker fur
niture, which is far less expensive
than almost any other kind. This
sketch shows some of the pieces
that are made; the design varies
with the output of the individual
manufacturer. Wicker furniture
has to be woven and that very fact
limits the scope of the designer.
Tables and lamps are made over
wooden frames and are often cum
bersome, so that care must be taken
in selecting such pieces, to avoid
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1923-12-14

those of poor proportion. Often it
is desirable to combine wooden
tables and lamp bases with the wick
err.
Reed and wicker furniture can be
had stained or painted or in the ma
tural color. When bought unfinished
it can be painted at home to match
any color scheme and is often more
satisfactory and cheaper. Covering
the cushions with a harmonizing
chintz or cretonne completes the
arrangement. A repp may be used
for covering instead-this may be
preferable when the furniture is
used in a living room. 1t gives more
dignity and the effect is less sum-
merry.

preparation Is Threat.

A special dispatch from American
Falls carried in the Statesman yes
terday said:
The American Falls reservoir dis
trict contract was changed at Wash
ington to extend special concessions
to the Northside Twin Falls project,
according to the statement of l.. p.
Crompton, congressman from Michi-
gan and chairman OF the house com
mittee on appropriations, and unless
the contract is altered congress will
probably materially cut appropria-
tions for the American Falls project.
he said.
Making what he characterized as
an unusually frank statement for
the good of the reclamation service,
the congressman said:
The secretary of the interior can
not change thecontract and get away
with II with congress. When the
American Falls project was first APP
proved in congress and appropria-
tons made for its use we acted in
good faith that the contract would
not be changed. Now / find that all
the irrigation districts that are TO
participate in this project are not
contracting on an equal basis. Some
have received special concessions
and have made special reservations
in their contracts, STIMULATING that
the government must purchase the
Indian lands in question, defer in
terest payments. ETC., before the
contract becomes binding on them.
When the question of appropria-
tions comes up 1t is my personal opin-
ing that appropriations for this prof.
ect will be materially cut. Either
that or riders will go with them that
will prevent districts participating
which have received special consider
alton in the contract. 1t is my belief
that all districts should participate
alike and that the original contract
should be adhered to-"
Directors of the American Falls
reservoir district at American Falls

nothing of any changes in the reser-
voir contract recently signed by
Secretary Work. w. F. Alworth. di-
rector of Filler, stated that IL there
were any changes made that in any
way endangered the status of the
American Falls project, he was GER
tain that the board of directors for
the district would Immediately au-
thorize any changes necessary to re-
store the project to the good grsces
of congress. I'VE expect to keep
strict faith with the government and
will not permit any obstacles to arise
that we can possibly avert" he said.
