Chinese reports asserted he had de-
manded abdication Of President Tsoa
Kun, who recently made WI Pei-Fu
commander in chief Of all of China's
national armies, and that he had in.
sisted that the present warfare against
Chang Tso-Lin, military dictator Of

pected to prove decisive was being

Michelson's Experiments With Light

Prof. A. A. Nicholson of the Uni
versity of Chicago, one of the worlds
most eminent scientists, has announced
results Of experimentation with the
velocity of light conducted by him
last summer at Mt. Wilson observatory
In California. The outcome, he said,
was "very promising" The problem
was to reduce uncertainty as to the
number Of miles light travels in one
second Of time. Doctor Nicholson ex-
planned that thus far the average
speed given by various methods of
measurement was 10000 miles Sec
ond, the uncertainty being a matter
Of 20 or 80 miles, and the goal a re-
duction of this uncertainty to one mile.
He says the velocity Of light Is one
of the most fundamental Of the con-
stants of nature, and this alone would
justify the attempt to measure 1t with
the highest possible precision.

Our county agent also told Us at
the club meetings that the two
best calves from each club would
be chosen 10 attend the state
fair. In place Of the best ones
he chose two several points lower.
He never told the boys their let
tiers would be the deciding fac
tor. We think it would be a
good thing if Mr.. Hammargren
would publish those letters of
the boys who scored high on
their letters so the old and new
calf club members could benefit
by them.
Another statement in this ar
ticIe is that Willis Mccullough
won the free trip to the national
show and a few lines further it
reads, that Arthur BIomberg
yielded his trip to Willis. Ra-
Their confusing il seems to some
Of your readers. If Willis did not
win a trip he should not have
gotten one and no one asked for
IT. Mr.. Hammargren came to the
Bruno school and gave Willis his
ticket; he also wrote to him
giving him instructions about his
trip. 1t looks to some of US like
there has been some mistakes
made in our calf awards. And in
conclusion we would advise our

their calves as that is what count

competition between states hav-
ing high standards, with states

The amendment proposed by
Congress must be ratified by the

part Of our constitution IL gives
congress power to make laws and
regulate labor of persons under

Matter Of Regulation
IT will be noted that it does not
prohibit the employment Of chill
dren under eighteen years Of age.
II merely gives congress the linn
il Of authority. For example,
congress might deem it advisable
to regulate or prohibit employ
ment Of older boys and girls in
certain occupations involving UNI
usual moral or physical hazards.
The amendment is for all time
and must be general in terms.
IL, Of course, does not interfere
with girls helping their mothers
with the homework nor boys
helping their fathers with the
chores or otherwise. II does not
impair the power of any state to
give greater protection, il would
only define a minimum Of pro
lection.
The only manner in which one
can exert his influence for or
against this measure is through
members Of the legislature be-
fore whom the amendment will
be presented at the next session.
