who tries to injure a labor paper is
an enemy to the cause" He also
says: "Were it not for the labor press
the labor movement would not be
what it is" AS an advertising me-
dunn, Printers Ink, recognized au-
thority on advertising mediums, says,
"Two thousand circulation of labor
paper is equivalent to six thousand
circulation of any other paper"
"a bit of liquor now and then,
Is relished by the best of men,"

John Long had fourteen children,
and they had all been rocked in the
same cradle. One evening as Mrs.
Long was rocking the fourteenth
child she said to her husband with a
wan smile:
"John, this cradle is pretty near
wore out"
"Yep," said John, cts about used

bill and added, "Next time We go to
town, mother, git a new one-one
that'll last"

in this campaign spent in the neigh

Secretary Hughes and Secretary
Wilbur of the Navy find themselves
at sword points again over the eleVat-
ing of American naval guns to IN
crease their firing range, a subject OF
controversy for the past two years.
Wilbur says that he will ask Congress
for money to make this improvement,
while Hughes declared that any
change in the guns would be viola
ton of the naval limitation treaty.
This position is the same as that tax
en- by Great Britain. President Cool
idge has not said where he stands on
this proposition, but a new lnterna-
tional conference is looked for to set
tie the argument. Such conference
has been suggested by the British
government.
Although Orientials are barred
from the United States, Japan and
China each have an immigration
quota like any other nation. Some
surprise was occasioned when this
fact became known here until the
State Department explained that the
fact that these nations had immigra-
ton quotas did not mean that their

The quotas, it was said, were to take

Attorney General Stone is making

A new kind of conference-one to
promote the safety of citizens of the
public highways-is planned by Sec
retary Of Commerce Hoover, the
conference wizard" of the Cabinet.
Figures compiled by the Department
of Commerce show that about $4,000
persons meet death in the United
States every year of highway acci-
dents. Hoover wants to make the
roads safe, both for pedestrians and
motorists, and is asking all state
governments to cooperate with him.
1t appears that no newspaper edi-
tors are going to jail for public in
come tax statements, even though the
Government has announced that such
publication is contrary to law and in
dicated its intention to prosecute
some of the newspapers. There will
be a test case all the way up to the
Supreme Court, but in the meantime
Congress will be the scene of hard
fight for the repeal of the law un-
der which the tax publicity was made
possible. 1t goes without saying that
such efforts will be fought to the bit
ter end by the La Toilette independ-
ents who put the publicity provision
in the law.

Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy | were sitting on a red stone in the deep, deep woods and they felt quite sad.
 You see, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy had made lot of wonderful stores with two magic books. then. when they wished to get the two magic books and hide them. they dis covered that someone had taken the two magic books. The Raggedys could easily follow the footprints of the mean person as long as the person walked in the soft path. but when the path became hard. the Raggedys could follow no further. So they sat upon the red stone wondering who the mean person could have been. It was while they were sitting here that the little pup py dog came up to them and the Rag gedys decided to adopt the nice little puppy for their very own.
 we will call him Ragsi" Raggedy Ann said.
 The little puppy dog was very pleased at this and he hoped about upon his little fat hind legs and parked in a soft manner.

 "why! Indeed! He isl" Raggedy Ann laughed. "You can see the seams in his head and body where he has been sewed together"
 someone must have made him with magic." Raggedy Andy said. "For if he wasn't a magic dog. he would not be able to run around as he does."
 Then if he is a real for sure magic dog. he will be able to talk, Raggedy Andy" Raggedy Ann said.
 Can you talk, little Rags?" Rag gedy Andy asked the puppy dog.
 "oh, no." the little rag dog replied. You see. the old Magician made me with his magic book, but he forgot to tell me that could talk SO I will have 10 go all through life barking just like ordinary meat puppy dogs,"
 Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy laughed as hard as they could when he puppy dog said this. for Of course he could talk just as well as either O. the two Rsggedys.

Young animals that get insuffi- cient calcium are undersized and have poor appetites. Sunlight has some peculiar influence upon it. turning it into a form of energy; that's why the lights gets its name. Also calcium in the blood is important In maintaining the action of the heart muscle.

 As I showed the little idol to the salesman a stranger who was stand ing by--a very distinguished man about sixty-exclaimed in surprise and admiration:
 Pardon me. madam. I have spent all my life in the study of Chinese art and Chinese traditions. I wonder if you know that this bit of coral Is absolutely priceless. It is one of the two gods that are worshipped by lovers. one of the twin gods that every lover hopes to present to his sweetheart while he retains the other. It is very old. No one knows the artist who carved it. as fl comes from before the Ming dynasty. Have you or your lover the other one?
 explained to him that ! was quite sure my husband did not have the other one; in fact, until this mo- ment l did not know there was an- other one.
 The mars face fell. He looked positively aehast.
 'Tt would have been better had you never found it," he said. "One of these little gods spells unhappi- ness-at least love unreauited. Both Of them. one carried by the man who loves you and one carried by yourself. would make perfect happiness for you both.''

Then seeing that the Rsggedys had grown thoughtful he asked. Why were you sitting upon this hard, hard stone looking so sad?"
 "Alas.'' Raggedy Ann replied. Some mean person has taken the two magical books and we cannot follow them any farther than the soft path"
 "Aha." Rags the puppy dog said. Then ! can help you for ] can smell their foot prints even though l can not see themi Just you follow me. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy. and I'll bet a nickel can show you where the mean person lives!"
 And the little rag dog put his nose to the ground and then went running away through the woods with the 1iaggedys following close upon his leels.
