Hints On Etiquette

Men should propose in simple words.
Proposals couched in eTtravasant
terms are in bad taste. Besides, after
the girl has been your wife few
years she's likely to twit you about
your superiatives. "WhGdda say. kid?"
is a simple way Of popping the ques-
tlon that seems to be growing in popu-
iarlty. Showers" for the bride-to-be
are popular and they assure the couple
two patches OF presents and, therefore,
a good start in married life. The
girl friends OF the fiances give cheer
fully expecting to get even by a
shower OF their own.

PATCHWORK ON HILLSIDE

The sleeper hillsides are variegat
ed picture of open, grassy .sheep-path'
terraced slopes dotted with creeping
juniper and clumps of flaming sumach
or of dense forest growth of oak, wal
nut, Eastwood, and poplar, with here
and there a dark evergreen to stand
out against the autumn colors; or of
soft sandstone cliffs chiseled by the
wind and nodded by the rain into fan
tastic castellated forms and crowned
with lichen-covered gray dolomite.
The gently rolling upland, the gent
Ter slopes and the valley bottoms make
rich agricultural fields and farm pas
lures. A view down one of these pros
porous valleys, dotted with well-kept
homes, nesting in the shelter of the
spurs from the main ridges, or cut in
the open surrounded by majestic group
of elms or naples with herds of full,
uddered dairy cattle dotting the hill
sides or standing leisurely in the cool
ing streams, is one to conjure up
thought of restful ease and make one
wish to live in such scenes far from
the maddening crowd" Those familiar
with the famed Berkshire Hills of
Massachusetts tell us that the scenery
in the western upland of Wisconsin
is more delightful.

NEW ERA FOR
AGRICULTURE

New York.-A new era lies ahead
for agriculture because 1t now com.
mands the best economic thought of
the business world directed on its
prime requirements of better distribu-
ton and marketing, President W. G.
Gordon of the State Bank Division,
American Bankers Association, de-
clares in a recent communication to
the thirteen thousand members of
the division. He seeks to enlist their
interest in the work of improving the
marketing of farm products.
"The farmer today finds himself
far removed from his consumercus-
toner by a long line of intermediate
agencies. which often leave him in a
position of disadvantage as an in.
dividual producer" Mr.. Gordon says.
st is, therefore. not strange that he
should seek to apply to agriculture
those principles Of production and
distribution found successful in in
dustry. His rightful ambition is to
make, where feasible, a general ap-
plication of successful business ex
perience to the marketing of agricul.
tural products. Commanding the best
economic thought of the business
world. agriculture undoubtedly stands
on the threshold of a new era. In
lieu of fantastic panaceas. agriculture
al welfare-which, after all. is the
Nations welfare-has need of sane,
long range program that is at once
practical constructive and economic
cally sound"
He goes on to call attention to the
long view program suggested for ag-
ricultural distribution" at Washing
ton by the Agricultural Conference,
urging study of it.

CARVED BY GREAT GLACIERS

The story Of the surface of the east

continental glacier which advanced
from Canada part of the great plan
etary drama wrought out in the an
cient epochs when mankind was just
beginning to take possession of the
earth.
The ice sheet found before it a coun-
try with a surface like the present
western upland and central plain of
the unglaciated area In its slow adj
vance the all-embracing ice proceeded
to mold the conditions more to its
liking. Like a great milestone it
ground off the hilltops and filled the
valleys. It bore along with it from its
northern home, and from the area
over which it spread, mass of bow
lders and soil which it used to level
up the rough areas in its path.
Along with these materials it
brought large quantities of native cop
per from Canada and northern Michi-
gan, sometimes in chunks several hun
dred pounds in weight. 1t scattered
the pieces so widely that it was a com
mon source of material for weapons
and implements for the Indians These

tant. Probably half of the known cop
per relics Of this kind have been found
in this state.
Not even a master artist could
have improved the beauty of
wisconsin. The naturalness
and the charm of the state is
due to a large extent to the
glaciers that swept Wisconsin
centuries ago.

Restriction of immigration De.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.

correspondence Oh tne ASSOciAteo PresS.
LIVERPOOL February 23.-The
policy of the United States in re-
stricting the inflow of emigrants
under a quota system, coupled with
high building costs, is likely to cause
the development of a new branch of
travel and the building of a new
type of liner, according to Harold A.
Sanderson, chairman of the White
Star Line. writing in that company's
magazine.
Mr. Sanderson says an extensive
third-c class business has been a po-
tent factor in the development OF
fleets of the principal companies. cul-
minating in super-liners of today
with a standard of comfort for all
classes unequalled in any other trade
in the world.
But" he continues. the rstriction
on the emigration movement has so
reduced the volume of travel that,
coupled with high building and oper-
ating costs. the construction Of fur
ther steamships of monster type in
the near future is rendered prob
lematic Steamship companies may
be expected TO restrict their building
program to vessels of moderate size
and speed with a less ornate decora-
tion of public rooms, and, while
maintaining the present standard OF
comfort for first-class passengers, to
institute improvements in the ameni-
ties for second and third class.
Special attention will be given to
steamers of cabin and third-class
type, and the needs of third-class pas
sengers will be studiously and in
creasingly considered in order TO de-
velop a new branch of travel Which
will offset to some extent the re-
striction of emigrant traffic.

5000 DOGS EXHIBITED

Increasing Favor.

LONDON, February "a. - Eight
thousand dogs. from comical little
pups Weighing but a few ounces to
massive, moping st. Bernarda, were
entered this month in Crufts Show,
the greatest crowd of CANNES ever
exhibited in England. Almost one
tenth of the entries were Alsatians.
The interest in them beginning after
the war has increased with unex-
ampled rapidity, until the Alsatian
has become the most popular of all
show dogs in Great Britain.
Each year the proportion of women
exhibitors increases. Most of the
kennels scattered over the country
are nowadays in feminine care.
The men, however, still are in the
majority among the owners of sport
ing dogs This year. with King
George among the exhibitors, the
Labradors seem the most popular OF
all retrievers. Their smooth coats
far outnumber the wavyhaired type
of hunting dog. Sportsmen regard
them highly. not only because OF
their surprising hunting qualities
but with due regard for their good
looks, docile disposition, intelligence
and affectionate ways. They are both
faithful companions and Trustworthy
guards.

the despot whom the opponents curse
so much?
Despotism breathes with vileness,
capriciousness, and wildness. Not a
trace of those enumerated vices was
to be found in Lenin's speech. He
simply enchanted with his sincerity.
Did he ever express wrath, was he
ever excited, it was with so much
frankness, so convincing that it left
no after affect.

in then delivered in which he discuss

his manners or talk as to say: Here

not know Lenin takes him for a typi-

threw of his sheepskin winter coat

off his yellow beard in "blange" and
on his face one can easily see some
Tartar lines, especially in his eyes and

He does not speak as eloquently

liantly as Plechanov. He does not
quote as many authors of so many
books as this does Plechanov, but his
logic cuts with the sharpness of a
knife; simple words, without any
highly sounding phrases set deeply in
your mind. Even his opponents sit
