MORE BIGOTRY

From its inception until very
recent times, every amendment
made to our constitution extend
ed the liberties of the people.
Now we are coming to an era
when amendments are urged or
passed which restrict the peo-
pies liberties rather than extend
them. Hand in hand with this,
and bred of the same causes, is
a tendency on the part of the
states to gather into the state
government functions formerly
exercised by the counties. Worse
than this, there is a tendency to
draw from the states the powers
which rightly lie therein, and
vest them in the Federal Gov
ernment at Washington. All
such movements are damaging
to the United States and sub
versive to both liberty and tol-
erance. Our theory of govern
ment is that the Individual
should be given every opportun-
ity and aid in developing him
self. We hold that America will
stand or fall on the average of
is citizens. = Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt.

POLITICIANS ARE
PEEVED

Professional politicians are point
ing to the payment of huge sums of
money in the Pennsylvania senatorial
contest as a horrible example of the
evils which flow from the direct pri
mary system.
If the disgusting scandal was not
so apparent the innocent" claims of
the politicians would be wildly hilari-
Gus.
Their real objection to the direct
primary is that corrupt practices can
not be hidden with the ease attach
ed to the buying of convention.
Then, again, there is objection to the
high cost of buying thousands rather
than hundreds of votes.
The politicians really shouldn't per-
nit themselves to be distressed over
the Immoral primaries" They
should console themselves with the
thought that Newberry, Mckinley and
Vare-Pepper have rendered a distinct
service by using convention methods
in corrupting primary elections, thus
exposing the weakness of the latter
plan Knowing the weakness, the
remedy can be applied with ease.
However, it will probably take two
more thoroughly scandalous cam
paigns before the people are fully
aroused, after which the boodlers will
begin to appreciate the view from the
inside of the penitentiaries.
Then there will be no complaint of
corrupt primaries

Then, the composition of evaporated

it has been put through an homogeniz-

Finally, experts agree that the use

America Leads
Nations In Use
Of Ice Cream

If any one food may be considered
as Americas national dish, it is ice
cream.
Ice cream Is a food particularly
adapted to the needs of individuals of
all ages, giving as it does the best
type of nutrients for the repair of
bone, teeth, blood and muscles and for
energy.
Today thousands of housewives
make their own ice cream. AS con-

nutritious food at q reduced cost, yet
without in any way impairing the

REGENERATION OF FILMS
ACHIEVED BY GERMAN
Process Will Prolong Life of Pic
lures for Future Generation,
He Declares.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, June 1.-THE claim is
made that old cinema films that have
been reduced to the scrapping point
by hard usage can be rejuvenated
again and again. The process has
been invented by Friedrich j. j..
Stock, a Munich chemist.
Old films are first cleaned by an in
genious mechanical brushing appara-
tus, given an oil bath and then sub
jected to a complicated chemical treat
ment from which they emerge free
from all scratches and blemishes and
with their original clearness fully re-
stored.
New films subjected to the same
process gain 800 per cent in clear
ness, and the life of a reel may be
prolonged 100 years, Herr Stock
claims.
The present machinery deals with
about 5000 feet of film an hour, and
! the cost of the whole regeneration
| process is about ! cent per foot, or,
used for new films, half cent per
meter.
Future generations will be able to
