WORLD DOMINION BEING
TRANSFERRED

Millions Now Living Will Never Die
The rapid changes of government
among nations seem only to check
temporarily their steady approach
to utter collapse. Thrones are top
pied over to make way for military
dictators. Officials of republics
serve selfish interests of big busi-
ness; and instead of an improve
ment of affairs, each new move
leaves nations weaker. Suffering is
increased; lawlessness becomes
rampant; and hopelassness is follow
ed by despair This march of nations
toward destruction and anarchy
moves onward relentlessly. Ar
mageddon, which nations seek to
avert by their union, leagues, asso-
Citations, and federations, looms up
threateningly Yet man need not
entirely despair. This troublous
period of earth's history was fore
told as Immediately preceding the
new order-a righteous worldwide
government.

30 long ago at Mandalay. the chief
town Of Burma A new pagoda dedi-
Gated to the Buddhist religion was
TO be completed by the placing of
huge crown, or thi. upon it's summit,
more than $50 feet above the ground.
To observe the ceremony came Bud
dhists from Indo-Chino. from the
Himalayas, from Laos and Chan and
Siam. Warriors from Katschin. Sor-
cerers from Mot and people from
other places made a medley OF Ian
guages like that at Babel. On a
street corner would be seen a. den
fist pulling a customers tooth. On
another corner a Mohammedan bird
dealer sold paroquets to Buddhists,
who piously set them free. At very
modern booths one could buy ice
cream, soda or tea Mandalay was a
gorgeous spectacle, and the new pa
CODA was the center of it.
Every pagoda has at its summit q

often a herculean task. The one now

"O the Editor: I been hanging
around Washington a vile in
the hopes OF getting called on
to testify though I don't know
nothing about anything but that don't
seem to be no bar to getting called on
They have had witnesses that come all
the way from Seattle to tell that flowers
lasts longer IL you keep them in water,
but two or three days Of rigid crosS-
examination failed to shake them.
However, they wouldn't nobody pay
no tension to me though l hung out in
all the different committee rooms and
smiled and winked at all the different
senators and kept coughing and clear
ing my throat like I was ready TO tell
them a story that would leave them In
Mysteries. But somebody must OF put In
knock and I finely had to pack up and
go homo without a whole lot Of people
even knowing I was in town. That is
the kind of a deal they give me.
The boys and gals that was on the
stand seemed TO be having the time Of
their life and their faces fell 4 r.
when the senators said that will do. 1t
was the first time the most Of them had
ever been in the limelight and they hated
TO get it over with. They was a battery
of newspaper photographers always on
the job and it certainly was pathetic to
see some OF the boys and gals keep look
ing in their direction in the hopes that
they would not be forgotten. But plates
cost money and before they will waist
one on you you have either got TO be
beautiful or Harry Sinclair.
On acct of the nation wide disappoint-
ment rising from me not being sum-
monsed maybe ! would better give my
evidence Just like would of give It had
I of been asked and show the senator's
what a mistake they made when they
left me out In the cold and in giving it
will try and follow the style like !
heard other people that was lucky
enough to get called on.

Lardner Investigates Oil Rumor

Q. Did you ever own any oil OF
any kind?
A. Yes, I bought 1t for something
else and didn't know what IL was till
after 1 had drunk it. But IL Ger
tainiy wasn't pure. In fact, I would
call 1t poor oil. Laughter)
Q. Have you talked with anybody
connected with this inquiry?
A. What inquiry? Oh yes, I know
what you mean. Why yes, / have
talked with Mr.. Will H. Hays, but
that was way back when he was the
postmaster.
Q. What was the conversation?
A. Neither of US understood IL. II
was all in code.
Q. How did yous come to loose SC
much hair?
A. II you are going into PERSONAL
ties. Senator, why. where did you get
them funny eyebrows?
Q. Your front teeth looks all right,
but how about you back teeth?
A. Well, I want to explain that,
Senator. l had a couple OF loose ones
which the boys said had better come
out and they took them out and are
going to put in some bridge works.
But 1 have got to wait till have
time as ! find it impossible to get
through my work in hr. and n
Der day like a senator. (Laughter)
| Q. What is your work?
| A. refuse to answer on the
grounds that I might make monkey
of myself.
Q. Was you ever refused for in
| surancee
| A. Just fire insurance. The exam
iners seemed to think they was dan
ger of me burning up. But want to
tell you, Senator, that ! always like
| to be took out on five card major
4 suit and when / double a bid of three
1 mean business.
| @. That will do.
A. But wait a minute. Senator
amt told you how many children
I got.
q. That will do.
That is a example Of what l would
of testified to and shows you what
they missed not calling on me. but
senators is libel TO make mistakes as
they are only human though they
may look different.
