KNEW DEBTORS PRISON
Just A Century Ago Dickens Father
 Was In MarshaIsea

Extreme bitterness lies in many an Old Country heart toward the whole race Of landlords, as we have seen re- gently in the radical form of the evic- tions bill, which all but wrecked the Labor government. It is difficult for Canadians to realize such a feeling, for many so-called labOring man owns one or more houses besides that in which he lives, and is Ra landlord in q small way himself, says the Toronto Globe.
 Dickens did not little to build up the dislike for the landlords, and of persons generally who took extreme measures under the then severe laws to collect money owing to them. Read CTS of Little Dorrit' will remember the gloomy pictures of life there given.
 It Is recalled ill London that its-fs Just century ago, or, in the early months of 1924, that Dickens was gain ing that intimate knowledge of debtors prisons which gave him such abundant material for some of his later novels. The family fortunes had been at lou, ebb; his mother had made an attemnt to retrieve them by starting "an estab. lishment' in Cover street, which Guite failed, however, to attract any punils :. and Dlckens's father was at length ar rested and carried off to the Marshalsea or possibly the Kings Bench prison where in 1924 there happened to be prisoner named Dorrit, 1t will he re. membered that it was in Little Dor rit that Dickson so thrillingly de scrlbes the Marshalsea.
 Furniture, books and other family possessions went to the pawnbroker, and 1t was then that little Charles was semi to the blacking warehouse at Hunger ford Stairs. In the daytime he pasted labels on bottles, and came home to the dlsmantled' house until the whole fam fly followed the father to the debtors' prison. A lodging was found for little Charles near by his hosts, are repre- sented by the Gsrlands in The Old Curiosity Shop" At last the family cir, cumstances improved; a legacy was left to the father, who also at this fine was receiving q pension. All this took place in and around April, 1S24.

EARTH HAS GALDEN CORE? .,.. Center Al Precious Metal Is Believed
 Surrounded By Layer Of IIron

GeOphyscists at the geophysicial lab orator yo fthe Carnegie institute of Washington have just announced their conclusion that the earth is made up of four and possibly five layers of ma- terial, writes Watson Davis in Cur- rent History Magazine.
 At the inmOst core of the earth there may be immense qualities of gold, plat mum and other metals heavier, than iron. Around this it is praetically certain that there is an irregular sphere of iron about forty-two hundred miles in diameter. From the outer edge of this iron core to the surface is about l,SO0 miles, distance that is divided into three layers whose boundaries are not sharply defined. Next to the cen tral iron sphere is mixed layer of iron and rock which extends to with in about 900 miles of the surface. Be tween this and the crust, which is about 35 miles thick. there is a layer resembling that found on the surface of the earth, but containing more mag, nesia and less silicate. The granites with which we are familiar form only a mere film few miles deep upon thc surface of the earth. The rest of the crust is made UT of more basic and 'rore rigid rock. "A Ia <ssls a

 Bratdley's,. Palm Beach's most ia. nous and chief attraction is club, with membership of both sexes, where gambling for high stakes is carried on from 2 each afternoon until 4 the fol- lowing morning, writes Bruce Bliven in the New Republic.

 Those sufficiently well known may play on, credit; which has resulted in the creation of a painful index expurga- torious containing the names of gentle men who do: not pay their gambling debts.

When he ex- postulated she explained that she was Mrs. F., that the sum her husband had lost the night before was the end of huge fortune all gone the same way, and that she had nothing left to live for.
 The club proprietor pleaded with her, for some time in vain; but at last, on his agreeing to return the $50,00O, she promised to live. Bradley in his turn made stipulation: Mir. F. was never to enter the club again. The lady promised, took the money and de,,a rfesI tf.af u-s uSptFteu.

Creager Asks Jews to Aid
Him in Fighting Ku
Klux Khan
Bureau Publication and Education,

(Bureau Publication and Education)
. WASHINGTON, d. c., March
Par. B. Creager, Republican ma
tional committeeman from Texas,
has a three-column article on the
front page of The Jewish Spec
tator, the oldest Jewish journal
published in the south, at Mem
phis, appealing to the Jews of the
country to support him in his
fight against the Ku Klux Khan.
He declares the Khan a menace to
American institutions and of his
fight to have both political par
ties adopt a plank in their re-
spective platforms condemning. the
Khan.
Mr.. Creager appeals to racial
prejudice in his article, and winds
up by declaring that he is work
ing with all his power to have the
Khan condemned and put out Of
business.
This is the same Creager who Is
about to be investigated for land
frauds in the Rio Grande valley in
Texas and whom Senator Heflin de
clares he will help put behind the
bars before he gets through with
him.
