thing the honest course. Fine! If it
were that kind Of world. We have
faith to believe that thousands of mef.
and women in Milwaukee would have
done what Frank Foth did, but we
know, and so do you, that not every
man and woman would have done it.
The reward hasn't much to do with
it. Either you're that kind of person
or you aren't. That's why we think
that although the loser ought to be
grateful enough, and probably is, to
pay a snappy reward, it can't make
a great deal of difference to the find
er. His reward is that when he walks
alone, he is in the company of an
honest man; when he looks into his
glass, that is the kind of man he sees,
and when temptation comes under his
nose, he doesn't have to worry for
fear he'll break down. When you
consider how long a man has to live
with himself, you'll agree that's pref

These bonds were issued by county

If the legislature puts a two cent

is the lowest of any state, and much

Mr.. Babcock stated with this six

because the proceeds from these

With this program there should be
no objection from any citizen. The

states obligation, and it will save
nearly one per cent of interest on

easy it would be to spend $1,4O0; he
didn't even have to wait until he saw

Insurance For

McCall's Magazine.

If you have young children and
dream Of sending them to college
some day, you can begin right now!
Father can take out an Educational
Fund Policy" for each of the four
college years. Most people take po-
licies of $500 or $1,000 each. These
policies mature-that is, they are paid
at specific times; for instance, one
each year when your boy, or girl, is
II, Is, 10 and 20.
Suppose you take out these policies
one each year for four years-be-
ginning when your child is seven
years old. The payments are easy
when distributed over ten years. And
when the boy or girl is ready to go
to college, the money is ready too.
If the father dies before all the
payments are made, no further ones
are necessary. The full amounts of
the policies are paid when they be-
come due. The child gets his educa-

ton just the same.

If the father becomes totally and
permanently disabled before making
all the payments-provided he is still
under 60 years Of age-no more pay
ments are required. The policies are
paid in full when due.
If the child should die before the
time set for him to go to college, all
the payments the father has made are
returned to him, with compound in
terest added.
You must be willing to do your part
by practising some self-denial, If
necessary, in order to pay the pre-
miums.
Those premiums are buying conf

your husband, if you have one-do not
now possess that friend, it is high
time that you at least asked for an

Would Make Pact
Between League and
u. S. Over Armament

Geneva, Switzerland, Dec. 10-(Bv
the Associated Press).--An entente
cordiale between the League of Ma
lions and the United States for re-
duction of armament was advocated
by Afranzio Mello France, Brazilian
member of the league council in a
statement to The Associated Press
today.
Under this proposed entente the
league would collaborate in a second
naval conference at Washington and
the United States would cooperate
in the general land disarmament con-
ference now being planned by the
league.
1t was fundamentally necessary. he
said, that America take part in the
disarmament plan, whose success
which the whole world awaits a, a
sequence to the treaty of Versailles
and the treaties of Locarno-can
never be attained without the par
ticipation of the United States"
He did not doubt whether the
Washington government would ac-
cept the invitation to sit in the pro-
posed preparatory disarmament COM
mission, but everybody earnestly
hoped 1t would, because they believ-
ed Americas moral support indis-
pensable.
He cited the opium conference as
precedent for the holding of two dis

armament conferences, the first of
the opium meetings having been
composed of states concerned in the
production or consumption of the
drug, and the second, which included
the United States, being devoted to
striking general blow at the opium
evil.
With disarmament, he said, one OF
the conferences would be held by the
state primarily interested in naval
proglems, while the second should be
universal and, declaring war a crime.
should boldly attack the general
problem of disarmament. In par
ticular it should concentrate upon
achieving reduction of the super
armaments in Europe with the as
sistance of the United States.
'The international economic, finan-
cial and political situation makes
American collaboration essential If
the worlds dream is to come true"
he concluded.
