UNCLE SAM TURNS
OUT TO Be HARD
BOILED EMPLOYER
Postal Clerk, II, Suffers In
justice Which Seems
Beyond Restitution,
BY ROBERT TALLEY

WASHINGTON. Feb. Great
numbers of people throughout the
United States are writing their Con-
gressmen and demanding hat justice
be done George f. Taylor, aged postal
clerk of Richmond, Va.
After sixteen years m the postoffice
service without a blen ish against his
record, Taylor wrongfully accused of
embezzling $50 back in 1911 and dis
charged. He was also arrested.
That the accusation against him
was groundless is shown by the fact
hat he has twice been exonerated,
first by Federal Judge Waddill. be-
fore whom he was tried, and later by
President Harding, who issued an
executive order recommending his re.
lnstatement.
Judge Waddill stopped Taylor's trial
and directed the jury to bring in a
verdict of not guilty.
1T was" said Judge Waddill re.
Gently. "the most outrageous case
brought against an official I ever
knew Of. and there is not the slightest
justification or excuse for the refusal
to give his mar vindication."

COVERED WAGON" RETURNS

Owing to the unprecedented in
terest caused by the two weeks en-
gagement of THE Covered Wagon
last October and the many requests
by patrons who were unable to secure
satisfactory reservations at that time,
this picture is booked for a return en-
gagement at English's beginning Sun
Gay night, with two performances
daily al 2:30 and $3.50 thereafter for
one week only.
During the prior w weeks en-
gagement English's enthusiastic
crowds were thrilled. They were not
disappointed in the high expectations
reused through the reports from other
cities.
The mastery direction by James
Cruze more and more appears the
largest single factor in the works

ers took advantage of this service, as
they found that by using this service
and grading carefully, they were able
to obtain better price and had fewer
complaints and adjustments than un-

Marketing and Standard zing

Various marketing questions were
discussed at these meetings; however.
two Of the principal subjects were
cooperative marketing and the stand
ardizatiOn of grades and packages.
both of which subjects are very in
teresting from the standpoint of Del
aware farmers. 1t was the general
opinion that cooperative marketing
is increasing among the producers
throughout the United States, and
that a cooperative organization, when
founded on sound business principals,
can be of great service to the growers
whom it represents.
The shipping point inspection work.
as done jointly by the Government
and the various states, has proven to
be Of great benefit to the growers
throughout the country, and this work
has made rapid growth during the
short time that it has been in opera
tion. At the present time, there are
about 30 different states that are pro-
viding shipping point inspection on
one or more commodities. Some Of
the states make the shipping point
inspection compulsory, while others
simply provide the service on request.
and it is generally believed that the
latter plan is the best one under gen
eral conditions. 1t was pointed out
that in some cases where shipping
point inspection had been compulsory,
1t was not understood by a large part
OF the producers; whereas, if the SER
vice was provided TO those who re-
quested it, they were soon enthusiasts
tic about the benefits to be gained
therefrom, and in that way their
neighbors soon became acquainted
with these benefits, and in a short
time, large percentage Of the grow

Government Officials Lend Services

Several of the officials of the United
States Bureau of Agricultural Eco
nomics attended this meeting and ex-
planned the work that the Federal
Government is doing in it's various
marketing departments. The dis
semination of market news by radio
was discussed, and practically all Of
the State Marketing officials stated
that they depended on this service to
a great extent in gathering their
market information, and it is believed
that the Government will soon in
crease its service along this line.
Representatives of several colleges
attended this meeting, and a part of
the program was set apart for them
to discuss what they thought should
be contained in the college course of
marketing. Very interesting phases
OF this work were brought up.
On Tuesday evening, the Agricul-
tural Commissioners and the State
Marketing Officials jointly attended a
banquet at which various agricultural
questions were discussed, and DR.. II.
G. Taylor, Chief of the Bureau of
Agricultural Economics at Washing
ton, made an earnest plea for COOP
Grafton between the producers and

WHY PATENT LEATHER
CRACKS

"Will this patent leather crackY'
is perhaps the one question heard
oftener than any other from women
shoppers in the shoe stores
The handsome, glossy, black, smooth
surface characteristic oA patent leath-
er, is made by treating dry, softened
skins with successive coats of var
nish, and baking after each applica-
ton Of varnish Large, thin, firm
hides are generally selected in the
first place. Each of the coatings made
of gums and vegetable oils are
worked into the fiber, and thoroughly
dried, before the next is given. The
last coat is applied with brush, and
the leather baked for three days in
an oven at low temperature, and
then finally exposed to the sunlight
which oxidizes the varnish, and gives
the finish.
When the customer begins to wear
the shoe, and the leather expands, as
it frequently does when affected by
the warmth and moisture of the foot
the coating of varniSh, which Is in
elastic, and cannot expand with the
leather, may crack. No manufactur
er can tell whether the leather is GO
ing to crack or not, and for that rea-
son it is seldom guaranteed. 1t does,
however, frequently give good service
The finish is a very popular one be-
ing especially suitable for semi-dress
wear, but appropriate for almost any
other occasion as well. This hand
some leather brings out the lines of
the shoe to the best advantage, and no
polishing is necessary. The varnlsh
is also an effective waterprooting.
Patent leather may be made from
kid, colt. calf, and cowhide Coltskin.
because of its firm, solid texture. is
. said to make the most satisfactory
Of all patent feathers. 1t is a prob
lem for the shopper to know how to
distinguish the better and poorer
grades. However, recently invented
varraish coatings are more plant, and
therefore less liable TO crack. Pat
emf leather was made in the United
States as early as 1918, but only re-
Gently has the process attained its
present excellence until now it rivals
