was the largest potato year ever
along the road and more potatoes
were carried than ever before, Il was
expected that the earnings on the
1925 crop would not reach the figures
of the preceding year and although
potatoes were higher in price this
year than In 1924, the crop was rs
per cent less. 1t was expected that
this decrease would be made up on
the handling of inward freight to the
Aroostook farmers who are enjoying
prosperity for the first time in years.

latienships between the United
States and Japan, very clearly pre-
senting the viewpoint of the Japan
ese, and in closing gave bit of her
personal life with these people whom
she has learned to respect and love.
Miss Hathaway's talk was one that
should have been heard by a much
larger. audience, for 1t dtalt with
happenings and ideas that every
thinking Christian American should
know and appreciate.

The air lines of Europe today so
converge that Germany is almost the
mistress of the air. albeit the title be-
longs to France. Having built planes
for every country, even including a
100 passenger plane in contemplation
for Japan, Germany has only to con
centrate upon mass production for
planes for her own use, when in war
time passengers and ordinary freight
will be replaced by loads of bombs.
Flying is a temperamental thing. 1t
requires a rare combination of me-
chanical genius and skill, with dare
devil recklessness. While most of The
nations of the earth. large and small,
feel the necessity of acquiring air
planes and competent pilots, there
are only a few people in the world
temperamentally suited TO great
achievement in the air. These, OF
course, are America, France, Japan
England. Italy and Germany; and 1t
is to be hoped as this widening mar
ket for aircraft and aircraft material
expands, that America win be in The
forefront in the production Of planes

1t cannot possibly require. given It's
present situation, ,and that ii may. be-
yond all else, assert a. dollar imperial
ism, that It may dominate Europe
and even enslave II.
For all Europe today we are the
enemy: no one can safely mistake this
fact We are the enemy because In the
European mind our policy with respect
to the debts constitutes menace for
all Europe. But the basis OF the
hatred Is the fact that Europe itself.
conscious Of it's own misery. its weak
ness, its grim and unpromising fu-
ture. sees in the United States the
single possible source of aid and In
our policy what 1t believes IL the
largest single obstacle to its recov-
cry. It sees in what It regards as
our harshness.. our indifference. our
selfshness, the revelation of qualities
and purposes which 1t ASSEMBLIES url-
der the name of Uncle Shylock."
And whatever else one may feel
about the European situation, at the
moment it seems to me utmost folly
to blink at two facts-frst, that By
and large the European situation ts
one filed with gravest hardships for
the millions. and second that our re-
sponsibility for much of the suffer
ings is accepted from Gibraltar to the
North Cane and from the Thames to
the Dembrovitza. and this conviction
and the inevitable passion attending
it are still increa sing.
What we did in the war. what we
did since the war. these things have
been for all practical purposes OBJ
scured by what we are conceived to
be dcing now. We are, In word,
Uncle Shylock," not for France or
Britain or Italy merely. but for a
whole continent That is the dorni-
mating circumstance in Europe today

Clues to Character
A Motive Man.
nv J. q. ARERNETHY.

When this type decides upon a pla n
OF action, it Ia almost impossible to
sway him by sentiment. Often he is
an exacting taskmaster. He chafes at
confinement, prefers outdoor work and
sport to Office positions.
You will find that most builders.
constructors. managers and others
whose duties require great activities
are of the motive temperament.
Sometimes mechanics have an attrac-
ton for him, and II he has talent it
may lead him into the inventive field.
The active, practical individual who
finds pleasure in strenuous work is of
the motive temperament. He may be
either a blond or brunette, short or
tall but he will not be fat nor will he
be thin. He has wiry muscles, large
bones and strong constitution. The
motive man is sometimes stubborn and
is ruthless in attaining his desires,
whether in business, love or snort.
Most all great warriors were mo-
tives: they possessed the long. power
full jaws. broad protruding chin. large
aggressive nose and keen. penetrating
eyes. Great determination and tenac.
ity Of purpose are plainly evident.

to the apartment. They came upon a
RoSalind who was radiant. whose face
had lost every trace of its mutinous
quality and was only very glad.
Jacks gloom vanished ma giCally.
He was always responsive to Rosa
lind moods: she had the power 10
give him back his hope. and he had
already begun To feel that perhaps If
he were patient she might reconsider.
perhaps she had not meant to he so
definite.
Madeline dropped visihly. She had
seen the instantaneous change in Jack
and knew the reason. She felt. too.
that she ought to he glad. but some
how her spirits We're at low ebb to-
night. For some reason she was de
pressed. Perhaps the incident in the
movies had something to do with it..
but she wasn't sure. She would have
TO think things over. she would have
TO determine later what her real feel
ing toward Jack was. and If she cared
for him she would have TO tear the
thought of him out Of her heart. He
must never suspect the truth.
She was vanishing toward the bed
room when Rose called her back.
None of that. young lady. I've done
all the work and made some hot choCO-

thing to tell YOU, something that I've

She spoke as confidently as though
