A Legacy of Pride

The father Of Senator Hiram johnson of Cali.
fornia died early last month. He left will which,
among other things, contained the following para
graph:
u make no provision for my Hiram because
he does not need any financial assistance from my
estate; hence leave him only my love and my
pride in his success in life"
That is a paragraph that might well be recon
mcnded to the attention Of all fathers who are bring
ing up sens; particularly to those young fathers
whose sens have not yet passed the swaddling
clothes stage, hut who already causing the in
experienced parent to wonder what is the best way
to raise boy.
The man who could write it, he reached tho
sunset period Of life is to be enved To be able to
look at ones son and his career, to take an honest
pride in them and realize that nothing more needs
to be given-that the son can stand on his feet
henceforth and acquit himself with honor that
is fine for any father.
But man has to earn it.
And the earning begins early. 1t begins when
the is little chap caromng of the furni-
ture in his amblings through the house, asking
questions at the rate Of ten minute, learning to
admire his daddy the best, wisest in the
whole world, beginning to, shape his life as the life
Of his father is shaped.
1t continues little later on. when the boy gets
little older and begins mingling with other young
sters. He gets a new angle from which to apprass
his dad. If his dad is the genuine article, this will
help the boy to get admiration and love 70,
him. if he is not the boy will begin to find that h.
is just little bit at sea.
And then there are the later years, when the DO!
goes ON through high school and enters college OF
goes to work. What priceless asset the right
kind Of dad is then! There are many things
for boy to decide in those years; many
values to form, many questions to answer, s.
many pitfalls to avoid. If boy has real dae
them it isn't hard; if he hasn't, it's pretty tough
After that the boy is pretty much his own
The father can't do a whole lot - maybe lend
helping hand once in while chime in with BIZ
Of advice occasionally, but little more. The bo,
has to go it fer himself
And if the father has done his part in thos,
earlier years, there isn't much chance that the DO,
won't get along all right. He'll have the RICH
5 background, the proper foundation. If the fathe
has failed-well, maybe he will have cause to regre
it in bitter sorrow.
So now you see what fortunate man Senate
Johnson's father was.
He was able to say, at the very last:
Il make provision for my son Hiram because
he does not need any financial assistance from m!
estate; hence leave him only my love and my prid
in his success in life"

Battle of Little Big Horn

North Dakota is vitality interested in the fftieth
anniversary next June Of the Battle Of the Little

"A. Custer and his Seventh Calvary will be re-
traced. A re-enactment of the march and the bat
tie will be reproduced closely is possible and
the will preserve for future generations this
most thrilling Indian battle.
Custer when he left the mouth Of the Rosebud

Twelve troops comprising 1000 men under
Col Ftzhugh Lee now stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas

priation for a monument to honor the gallant Gus
ter. If successful permanent memorial will be

Celebrates Birthday

When the greatest corporation in the world cee-
bratcs it's twenty-fifth birthday that is news. The
United States Steel company has just rounded out
quarter of century Of existence with the same
man, f. II. Gary chairman. He has maintained
conservative policy. There have Always been adc-
quatc reserve and nc watering of stock. Stock.
holders have been paid reasonable but not extrava
giant dividends
Despite its years of successful operation under
the Gary style Of management, the corporation
actually produces smaller proportion OF the
country's iron and steel than when the combination
first came into existence. Its relations with
petitors have been fair as rule and the adminstra-
ton of its affairs has had beneficial effect upon
the steel industry the world over.

1t is undoubtedly due to the fact that veterans
do not understand their privileges under the policies
of their government insurance, that the stupendous
sum of $3O,000,OO0O0O worth Of government insur-
ance has been allowed to lapse. Furthermore un
less some action is taken Immediately by these ex-
service men, their dependents may face want and
poverty because of this incredible negligence on the
part of the veterans themselves.
Veterans should at once avail themselves of the
privilege of renewal by undergoing examination
and paying two months premiums at the wartime
rate as, after July 2, it cannot be renewed The
Veterans bureau calls attention to the loan clauses
and cash surrender value of the policies; it has also
started campaign to inform veterans of their
privileges under the policies.
There remains less than six months in which to
effect these renewals and every of publicity
available should be employed to the end that these
ex-service men may receive every possible benefit
Newspapers may be depended upon to do their share
patriotic societies, church and schools should be q
fertile field for the dissemination of information
and every citizen should take it upon himself as
personal duty to that veteran loses his policy
through ignorance of the means Of retaining it.

No Federal Bureau

Efforts Of a group Of educators to secure a
minister Of education with portfolio in the Pres
ident's cabinet are i'll advised. Each state SHOULD
continne its control Of its schools. There is little
merit in the naturalization Of the educational
system. Home rule is greatly to be desired. If
the control of the schools is removed from local
boards backward step will be taken in educa-
ton.
There has been IA tendency to centralizc too many
functions Of government at Washington. Their,
some things which the cities and the states can
best perform. Regulation of child labor, closely
allied with educational policy is Of the matters
in this category.

But there is another angle to it, and one which
holds the possibility Of disturbing the hustlers too

There isn't exactly" said Jupe.
"All the cherries are red except one.
And that one is not only blue, but it
has blue gem in it instead Of a
stone. Beside all that, it is magic"

crimes these create a strong public opinion in

A church in far western city has done away
with organ music at its services and installed, in
its place, q jazz band.
Worse yet, the church officials seem proud Of
what they have done. They announce it with glee,

pect jazz band to add to the dignity or beauty

dsrstand. But then, some people don't seem to
realize that church service needs dignity beauty

HRDLICKA, TAKES HUNDREDS
 SKULLS OUT OF THE NORTH

Nome.-Dr. Alex Hrdika, anthrop- ologist, arrived here on the cutter Bear from Point Barrow, bringing with him several hundred skulls which he is taking to the Smith sonlan Institution in an effort to de- termine similarities and differences of Asiatic and American Indians. Hrdlicka found valuable data tend Ing to determine the racial origin of the Eskimo. He said that because the essential facts can only be divulged by the Smithsonian Institution, this summary must be considered strictly unofficial
 Hrdlicka collected specimens along the Yukon and seacoast of the Alaska Peninsula, the Arrtic coast to Kotze- bue and to Point Barrow. He sought traces of ancient dwellings and im- plements of peace and of war. Storms have obliterated much of the evidence He believes that the Yukon was mi grafton route. He is leaving here to- day, and will stop at Diamond, Nuni- yak and St. Lawrence Island, and also for several days at Unalaska, while en route to San Francisco

Williamson, Mass.-World peace de- nends more upon coal than disarma- ment conferences, R. T. Haslam, pro lessor of chemical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technol- ogy. declared today before the Insti- ute of Politics.
 One of the prime factors in future international relations, he said, will be the conversion of coal into oil. Such conversions. in. his opinion, would form satisfactory solution of the pe- troleum supply problem. which at present is one of the principal inter- national irritants..~
 Applying the discussionito the auto mobile. industry, he showed how, by use of certain chemicals, tetra- ethyl, cad, aniline, and iron carbonyl, the efficiency of engines has been greatly increased by increasing the compress sion of the. gasoline and air mixture, at..the same time nullifyipg the de- senfion--
 "Tt-is safe. to say thatnthe develop ment of . these anti-detoning <. cOm- pounds, such as tetra ethyl lead, will permit the saving of-4ahaut ,40s per cent of our gasoline,22 he said.
