, MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK


The heavy snow which fell during
nearly all of last week, is gently
melting and we are real glad it is 60
ing, as some of the roads are yet i'm
passable on account of the heavy
drifts which blocked them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry May motored
to the Park from Cumberland one day
last week and have not been able to
return on account of the State roads
being impossible.
The new chemical fire engine, pur-
chased sometime ago, has arrived at
the Park, which we hope will give us
better sense of security concerning
our homes and their safety in case of
fire breaks out. We are greatly in
debted to the firemen of Oakland for
their splendid help in the past years
and if they should ever need our as
sistance we will be only too glad to
give it. Call us at any time.
| Applications are being received ev-
cry week from those desiring to rent
or purchase cottages. 1t is hoped that
some new cottages will be built here
in the near future so that the demand
ever increasing, may be met. There
is a growing call for five and six
room houses.

TEAPOT DOME SIZZLING

The public has a right to know
what were the relations between our
former secretary of the interior, AL
bert 3. Fall, and the mead of the Sin
clair oil properties. Harry +. Sin
clair. Mr.. Fall at least should be
most DESTROYS of all to have them
know. He should be insisting on a
chance to clear up tie reports. He
strenuously denies the charges. He
should turn his pockets wrong side
out that all may see therein no piece
of string from that which tied up the
Teapot Dome lease to the Sinclair
interests. Every honest man who has
knowledge Of any circumstance
which might mid the truth would do
well to consider the example Of
Archie Roosevelt. And Mr.. Sinclair
in Europe protesting isn't as effec-
tive to the publicity as would be Mr..
Sinclair protesting at Washington.
The public. however, should recoS-
niZe the rule whereby one is assumed
to be innocent until proven guilty;
not unmindful, though. that with the
steam arising from Teapot Dome 1t
is reasonable to suspect some fire.

Professionalism at the Crossroads

Protestantism at the Crossroads
Civilian Pierson Merrill in Worlds
Work.
Professionalism is today in a critical
position. 1t may have had its day.
and henceforth exist as a declining.
weakening cause. 1t may burst into
new vigor. and go on into the splen-
dor Of new day and a new life.
Whether this or that shall be Its des-
tiny depends on Professionals them
selves, on no one else, on nothing
else: on their courage. on their In
sight, on their obedience to the lead
eiship Of the Spirit Of Christ, on
whether they let their churches re-
main partly Catholic, or make them
wholly Protestant.
The danger does not lie in any
Roman peril" in any Catholic en-
croachments," which Professionalism
must stoutly resist. or be driven from
the field. The remedy does not lie in
the use of propaganda. or any other
outward means of defense or offense.
whether the coarse indefensible
methods Of the Ku Klux Khan, or
more subtle anti Ca tholic agitation.
The simple remedy Is in making
Professionalism true to itself; for If
fully true to Itself it will be irresist-
ible. There Is ample room today,
there will be ample room for many
years ahead. for genuinely Cath
olic" church, and for genuinely
Protestant" church: Tor n religion
or authority" and n religion of the
spirit" There is little room today.
and there will be less End less room,
for n church which tries to serve two
masters, which processes to trust In
the spirit. but still clinIs to the en-
blems and methods and assumptions
OF external authority, afraid In its
heart to let them go. and really to
live its life and do its work mot by
might nor by craft, but by spirit"

Mr.. WADSWORTH. | believe 1t has
been a long established custom of the
government, in settling claims of citi-

part OF the settlement, and certain
classes Of costs.
This claim had received the APP

This Is another and peculiarly con-

showing that our governmental af-

which should be done by the State

onto the federal government and it
Is incompetent properly to do that

Some time since noticed in the col

the New England crop reporting SER
vice. in regard to the sweet corn pro-
duction for canning. This report
states that the price per ton for 1923
crop was only s27.51 per ton.
This price is or may be misleading
to some.
The price paid the growers by all
the large packers is fixed at 81 cents
per Id. or $1,000 per ton.
The former price named Is very evil

Hvered at the factory. The packers
pay for the kernels only. The waste
belongs to the grower and is usually
hauled home to fill the silo. The pack

hauled away.
A sample of 25 lbs. Is taken from
each load delivered and cut by hand

cuts according to quality from to

$40 to $50 lbs. per ton as delivered to

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James III. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him help
less and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the &C.
cumulated impurities. commonly
called uric acid deposits. were dis
solved in the joints and muscles and
expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he con-
suited physicians, made experiments
and finally compounded a prescrip-
ton that quickly and completely
banished every sign and symptom OF
rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery,
which he called Ailenrhu, to others
who took 1t, with what might be
called marvellous success. After
years OF urging he decided to let
sufferers everywhere know about his
discovery through the newspapers.
He has therefore instructed Sections

MIGHT BE OVERLOOKED

Let's see, it really is incumbent on
Congress to make a thorough in
vestigation of the Veterans Bureau
scandal; 1t would be shameful to
neglect to get at the truth respect
ing the Teapot Dome oil land lease.
Then there Is the regular business,
quite important, one would naturally
suppose, reduction of taxation, dis
posing of the bonus question being
some of the more prominent matters
on hand.
Here would seem to be salvation
from idleness for the most in
dustrious Congress ever known,
though we understand this Congress
does not lie under any such imputa-
ton. Really busy time ahead, for
the day cometh when no Congress
can be expected to work at its job
To do so would be contrary to all the
rules of the political fence viewers,
and tanners unions.
Now such being the predicament
of Congress what does it do to COM
mand respect for it's august pres
ence? 1t summons Mr.. Box, formerly
of the Ladies Home Journal, before
1t. Mr.. Box answers the summons
promptly and as promptly informs
Congress that he is cond ucting his
own business very nicely and goes
out without slamming the door-or
for that matter without desisting
from a meditative fumbling Of his
nose. If Congress can keep ZIP this
sort of thing strenuously the dear
people may entirely overlook what
Congress exists for and why it should
be permitted to exist.
