Honor Memory of
World Wor Heroes

In the ancient castle of Rovereto.
near Trent, which is being used as an
Italian war museum, huge bell has
been hung in memory of the war dead.
The bell is one Of the largest in Eu-
rope, coming next after those In Mos
COW, Cologne and Vienna, weighs five
and half tons, and is beautifully
carved with procession of warriors
and other figures marching round its
circle.
1t is to be rung every evening for
one minute after the Angelus, and on
great anniversaries of the war, for five
minutes.
The government has set aside spe-
cial dates which will commemorate the
dead of Italy, France, England, Amer
lea, Belgium and Czechoslovakia. AS
final touch of modernity, radio ap-
paratus is to transit the tones to all
the world that cares to listen.-Liv-
ing Age.

When would it seem that a lawyer
Is out of temper? When he asks
croSs-Questions.
What is 1t that you cannot see
though it is always before you? Your
future.
How do extravagant dresses differ
from law books? The first are costly
modes, the second mostly codes.
Why is a cellar door like sin? Both
lead to abasement
What is that which we often return
but never borrow? Thanks.
What is that which has neither flesh
nor bone, yet has four fingers and a
thumb? A glove.
Why can you never expect a fisher.
man to be generous? Because his
business makes him sell fish.

time of the year, so We'll just give
them good surprise"
"You have the grandest IDEAS" said
Old Queen Thunder.
Old King Thunder and Old Queen
Thunder rest when they are not hav-
Ing parties and noisy talks. That gives
them so much more strength and en-
ergy when the time comes for good,
stormy time
They went where it was warm most
Of the time, but now and again they
like to surprise people, and they come
suddenly around when it just seems
toe silly to have a thunder and light
ming storm.
They called their Lightning friends
and asked them to join their fun.
And as you know the Lightning
family and the Thunder family have
been friends for years and years.
No two families are greater friends
than these two.
Well, the Thunder family and the
Lightning ramily went rumbling and
crashing and yelling and roaring and
flashing and forking about their sky
playground, and the Thunder children
played hide and seek around the
mountains and the hills.
And then along came the Raindrop
children and Old King of the Clouds
and then there was excitement
Not only were they having their
party when it was cold but they had
it in the middle of the night.
People got up out of nice, warm
beds and pulled down windows in bed
rooms and the noise was so great
hardly any slept through it.
1t quieted down soon again, but not
until it had given almost everyone
enough noise to wake them up.
The Thunder family and the Light
ming family had other plans and en-
gagements and could not stay around
long, but they had a splendid little
surprise party and said they loved par
ties which were arranged on the spur
of the moment.
That's the way with my dear old
King" roared Old Queen Thunder.
And the Old King added:
That's the appreciative kind Of
Old Queen l have"
"Our dear parents" said the chill
dren.
And the thunder gradually died
away, and the lightning disappeared,
and only the rain remained around for
awhile!"

Mary Spilled the Beans

The Hills had guests for dinner.
When they were nearly ready for the
last course, Mrs. Hill was forced to
leave the table to attend the crying
baby. Mary, age four followed her
mother from the room. Several min
utes later she cautiously pushed open
the dining room door and peered in.
Then, just as cautiously closing the
door, she called to her mother in a
high pitched, childish voice:
mo, mother, they're not through
yet They've just taken another roll"

Guide Was Sarcastic

The young flapper just graduated
from boarding school was touring
Yosemite valley. Her mother, wish
ing to educate her further, insisted
that she tour the valley with a guide.
Arriving at huge chasm, the instruc-
tor informed his party that the crevice
had been hewn with glacial rock ac-
ton, thousands Of years ago. "And
what became of the glacier?" inquired
the sweet young thing. sit went back

tart reply.

Solution of Last Weeks Puzzle.

Christmas Carols
Almost every land of Christendom
has its own Christmas Carols. In
England waits" sing under win
dows on Christmas eve, as they have
done for countless Christmases. In
Russia the ancient Kolyada songs,
once sung to pagan gods, now dedi-
Gated to Christian saints are sung
about the streets. The French Noel
songs and the famous German
'Kristlieder" are hear wherever
there is Christmas music. In our
own land, choir boys and school
children hold carol parties and go
about singing these old-tine songs
for "shut-ins' and other unfortu
mates.
The Christmas tree with it's golden
star and lights. and It's imitation
frost-trimmed boughs, is as much
part of the celebration as is the
Christmas song. Some trace its
origin back to Roman days, but its
first appearance as a regular In
stitution was along the Rhine some
time In the sixteenth century. At
the beginning Of the nineteenth
century the fashion spread all over
Germany and by fifty years later
had conquered Chistendom.
In the New World, where people
gathered from all the Christian
countries of the earth, many of the
special observances Of various kinds
have become a part Of our celebra-
ton. Thus the practice of preparing
a birds Christmas tree supplied with
bits Of apple and suet, cookies, nuts
and seeds, and placing it outside in
a safe place for our feathered friends
has grown from the old Scandi-
navian custom of placing a sheaf of
grain on a tall pole in the dooryard
for the birds on Christmas morning.
The elaborate street festivals of
Italy and Spain, with their bonfires
and fireworks, are in the United
States, often replaced by the COM
munity Christmas tree. A great H.
Illuminated evergreen is set up in the

ing out an arrangement with the
allied finance ministers respecting the
right of the United States to receive
claims, payments and ALLEGATIONS from
the Dawes plan annuities of Germany,
administration officials declined yes
terday to discuss questions taken up
at Paris, nor would they intimate
whether the agreement would be ap-
proved by the Washington Govern
ment.
Since 1t is known that the Amer
lean representatives acted only in ac-
cordance with the most explicit in
structions from Washington, 1t is as
sumed that any plan assented to by
them naturally would be approved by
the Washington administration. ANY
assumption to the contrary of neces-
sity would be based on the inference
that Ambassadors Kellogg and Her
rick and Col. Logan, the three Amer
lean agents, had exceeded their au-
thority or failed to follow the instruc-
tions given them. Such an inference
found no basis anywhere in official

TOPEKA, kans., January l0.-En-
Joined by the District Court, ousted
by the Supreme Court, the Ku Klux
Klan today found itself without a
home in Kansas. The decision of the
State Supreme Court today holding
the Klan was a corporation organized
for profit, and as such could not oper-
ate in Kansas without a charter,
brought victory to the State in the
suit brought in the high court 26
months ago.
Members of the hooded order found
little solace in the thought that they
might seek the sanction of the State
charter board. In an election stepped
in Klan and anti-Klan animosities,
two State officials who comprise a ma
jority of that board were elected
against the opposition of the Klan.
The third, the State bank commits
