BROADENING OUR VIEW

Although many writers deplore the al legged lower standard Of current magazines which are extremely popular with 9 cer- tain class of people, reports from boolcsel- lers and librarians declare that there Is g growing demand for the better sort Of liter ature.
 Works dealing with travel, history and biography are being called for in increas- ing numbers, especially those pertaining to foreign countries.
 There is no doubt that the war and the important events which have followed 1t have given the American people a wider outlook on the world and desire to know more of the countries and peoples which are playing such important parts in its af- fairs.
 Newspapers generally, both dailies and weekieS, find that their readers are inter ested in wider range Of topics than form erly, and are giving more space to news and editorials dealing with national and inter national matters.
 This all means that the people Of Amer ica, and particularly the rural population. are outgrowing the narrow pr0vinciaism of the past and are eager for contact with the rest of the world, through books, news papers, moving pictures and the radio. Al of which makes for a higher and better civilization.

ONLY A STRAY PUP

What does a stray pup amount U0, any way? What does 1t matter If such help less animal is abused and tortured to make sport for gang of thoughtless boys? Who cares?
 One small boy cared-and because he cared he made fTiend-a friend who did not forget.
 Some years ago a kindly man named Jacob Siler walked along the bank Of the Mississippi river near St. Louis and came upon group of boys who were amusing themselves by throwing stray pup into the river time after time, in spite of the pro tests of one small companion Finally the pups defender engaged the others in fstic combat to save the wretched animal from drowning. He battled so courageouSly that he won the day and saved the pup.
 MT. Siler commended the boy, whose name was Otto Schmidt, and between the two a lifelong friendship sprang up Re gently Sler died and left S7,5o0 to the boy, now a man, whose humane instincts and courage had rescued the poor dog and won the admiration of the casual paSserby.
 Those who befriend unfortunate ani- malls do not always obtain material rewards such as came to Otto Schmidt, but they in- evitably have the reward Of an approving conscience, which is greater still

LOCAL POSTOFFICE COMMENDED

Numerous comments have been heard recently regarding the splendid service at the local postoffice. The most recent of these was the other day when the Admiral Evans came in during the early hours of the morning. Early risers, upon opening their boxes, found the Evans mail sorted and at s o'clock the general delivery win dow was open to the public. The past week is not the first time by any means that ser vice of this nature has taken place It has happened innumerable times Everybody is always anxious to receive their mail quick and it is only fair to state the public appre- ciates the commendable spirit displayed by the local office

MILK-THE PERFECT FOOD

Milk is our best all-around food and no other food can take its place. It tastes good; 1t is easily digested and is very nour- ishing. Milk is spoken of as a protective food because it is great factor of safety in our diet. In fact, the vigor and success of nation depends considerably on the amount of milk it uses.
 Milk is suitable for persons of all ages, as it excels all other foods in the verietv of and quality of the materials which it furn- ishes to the body. Milk is also of the cheap est foods, even at the present prices, though It IS the most difficult of all our foodstuffs to collect, handle and transport.
 1t 1t is necessary to econonlize do so in some other manner than decreasing the quantity of milk used.
 The solids of milk include protein. fat. sugar, mineral matter and vitamines. They are in such form that they can be easily utilized in building and repairing the tis- sues and bones of the body.
 Milk is far richer in calcium or lime, for example, than other common foods. This makes it especially necessary in the diet of young children, prospective and nursing mothers. This lime is important in building bones and teeth.
 The vitamin content depends upon the proper feeding of the COW and the conmer- cial treatment of the milk. However, milk may be counted on as a good source of vit- amins, especially A and B.
 The daily consumption for the child and adult should be kept sufficiently high for good health. At least one pint for each person in the household is good standard. Growing children need from three cups to one quart daily. They do not need to drink

THANKLESS CITY JOBS

Civic loyalty is a splendid virtue, but one can hardly expect thankless jobs and low pay to attract the most qualified men to i'm portant municipal positions.
 A survey covering F eastern cities con. ducted by the Philadelphia bureau Of mum cipal research, shows that the salaries oi higher officials and scientific and profes- sional city workers are at discouragingly low mark
 Men who spend their time deTiding Cty officials would do well to give a little atten- tion to the conditions under which these men work and help make city offices more attractive to persons of ability and talent

Public hearing on two pet" fill
ing station ordinances Of the city
council majority faction will be held
at 1870 p. m. Friday, it was an

nances designed to rezone the south

two south corners of. the Delaware
st. approach to Fall Creek bridge,

BRING NAME
OF HARDING
into TRIAL
Fall and Doheny Disclose
Laie Presidents Cabinet
Relations.
CITES 100000 PAYMENT
Government Point Admitted
by Defense.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2l.-The de.
Tense in the Fall.Doheny oil trial re-
vealed today what it termed "the
inside story" of President Harding's
Cabinet relations to disprove the
Governments charge that former
Secretary of the Interior Fall con-
spired with f. l.. Doheny, oil mil
lionaire, to lease Government oil re-
serves for a personal consideration
of 100000.
Frank J. Hogan, defense attorney,
outlining his case to the jury at the
second days session of the oil con-
spiracy trial, declared he would
prove Doheny thought Fall would
resign from the Cabinet soon after
he gave Fall the 100000 and before
Fall gave him the Elk Hills oil
lease.
Fall had an agreement with Presi;
dent Harding to retire exactly a
year after he took office March 4,
1921, said the defense attorney,
But viii Hays retired as post
master general, said Hogan, and
Fall stayed in the cabinet lat the
personal request of Mr.. Harding"
"Mr Harding told Fall he wanted
him t, stay in the cabinet longer be-
cause he did not wish IL to appear
that after a year his cabinet was
beginning to disintegrate," said
Hogan.
The prosecution will base its case
on the contention that two days after
Doheny proposed to Fall, that naval,
oil reserves be leased to his COM
pany, the oil magnate gave the
cabinet officer 100000 in cash, owen
]. Roberts Of Government counsel,
revealed today in his opening argu'
ment.
Outlining the Governments case,
Roberts said Doheny wrote Fall
about the leases on Nov. %, 1921,
and that on Nov. 29--the very next
day--Fall, asked Doheny for
100000. The money was paid by
Doheny to Fall in cash Nov. 80, the
day following, Roberts said.
The prosecutor said Fall used the
money to improve his ranch in New
Mexico, and a Senate investg" ting
committee uncovered the transaction
when it became suspicious of Falls
sudden affluence.
Roberts traced the history Of the
case fully.
.Up to Nov, 81. 1921. he said the
Government had always followed a
policy of conserving oil in Ia great
