As'you read this. Chapman will have
been changed by the neck until dead"
for killing policeman
Capital punishment is out of place
in a civilized nation. But while cap
ital punishment stands. it should be
applied to such men as Chapman.
His appeal for mercy before the
pardons board in Connecticut was dra-
matte and pitiful. Den0uncing the
district attorney that convicted him.
he said Of his hanging, 81 think it is
pretty rotten" Chapman's lawyer
said his client "did not have q dogs
chance" But killing a policeman. do
ing his duty was also "pretty rotten"
and that policeman did not have a
dogs chance.
Chapman was, in part, the result of
our apparently unavoidable system of
education in crime. He had been for
years an ordinary sneak thief, Of a
mean kind, swindling women. then
prison term brought him in contact
with dutch" Anderson, a more des-
perate criminal, who explained to him
the advantages Of higher crimes
Both were in Atlanta's federal prison.
Both escaped, Chapman twice.
"Dutch" Anderson, pursued by a
young detective, shot and mortally
wounded his pursuer. But a. the
courageous young man lay dying, he
shot his. murderer dead.
Now the hangman confers upon
Chapman the last and highest "dc-
gree" of the university Of crime.
We are, first, what our parents and
distant ancestors make US; second,
what our surroundings make US, and
third, what we eat.
DR.. E. H. Fishberg, from Germany,
says the new crop of babies is inf
nitely superior to the war-born babies.
The latter, half starved, now ten to
fourteen years Of age, have minds of
normal children aged four.
DR.. Fishburg's news is that German
babies. fed on chopped liver, thrive
on it because of it's richness in vita
Minis. Babies in Berlin's charity hos
pital get no milk after the age of two
months, and chopped liver makes them
grow to be sturdy and beautiful hu-
man specimens.
But don't change your baby from
milk to chopped liver without asking
the doctor.
Many clergymcn on Sunday preach
ed on mortality. as we'll they might
every Sunday. To those now living
the only important question is, shall
we live hereafter"
Rev. C. E. Wagner. Of the Methodist
Episcopal church, says belief in i'm
mortality is growing feeble. He
knows, undoubtedly. but the statement
is amazing.
What is worth while if the hope of
Immortality be taken away? "The
satisfaction Of providing for your
children, which is kind of immor-
tality," you may say. What satisfac-
ton is that, il children in their turn
are born only to die and forever re-
main dead?
But Immortality is real. Matter and
force are indestructiblc. Would the
wisdom that controls this Universe
doom consciousness, the light >of the
soul, to eternal death, while giving
perpetual existence to force and mat
ter?

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE SPEAKS AT PAN
AMERICAN. CONGRESS OF JOURNALISTS

Washington. April s. R) Prcsi-
dent Coolidge. in addressing today
the First Fan American Congress of
Journalists which assembled at the
Pan American Union. urged that the
gatherings be held frequently as a
means of drawing together the
peoples of the western hemisphere.
Speaking of the increased inter
change of news among the American
nations in recent years, Mr.. Coolidge
declared this awakening of interest
had been ''one of the most important
factors in bringing about better
understanding" of the several coun-
tries.
81 venture the prediction" he adj
ded. that as result of this Congress,
the papers in the United States in
the future will present more complete
and more accurate pictures of the
cultural and industrial progress Of
Latin America, and that the press
Of those Republics will give to their
readers a better understanding of
the ideal. and purposes Of the Unites'
States.
"lf all our citizens here do not yet
realize fully that Latin America is
as progressive as the United States !;
and If some Latin Americans. as |
have been told is the case, are prone
to feel that this country is iaterc cstcd
in material things alone, am sure
it may be explained by the lack of
that knowledge which comes from
personal contact through travel and
by the mutual inadequacy Of news
reports Of the significant facts and
developments in the respective coun-
tries"
Results Of Meeting
The Congress, Mr.. Coolidge said.
should result in a better comprehcn-
sion that. "after all. we Of the west
crn hemisphere are one people stri-
wing for common purpose. animated
by common ideals and bound together
in a common destiny. Unto US has
been bequeathed the precious hcri-
tage and the high obligation Of de-
veloping and eonerccrating new

hiring a county agent was put to a
vote Of Burleigh county citizens al
least twice in past years, the last time
being in 1929. when the result was
three to one in favor Of the project
The exact count was 1892 in favor of
county agent and 1901 against it.
Only three precincts in the entire
county showed more votes against the
plan that in favor of it. and in two
others the vote was a tie.
County officials failed to hire a
county agent, however. and this
spring the agricultural committee OF
the Association of Commerce invcsti-
gated the matter. finding that farmers
were still very desirous Of having
such man to whom they could come
for information and advice concerning
their problems. Business men were
solicited and the necessary funds
were subscribed with very little ef-
fort.
