And so on endlessly. These are

The men certainly do love to eat
If it wasn't for the food which is
being constantly set before them, II
seems doubtful whether they would
ever get any civic work done. Every
time they want to raise money, or
improve city conditions or elect a
committeeman, they must dine. They
can't get up bit Of enthusiasm on

And the endless banquets to which
we sit DOWN. What an Insult to
honest digestIons they arel Hard
rolls, inflnitesima1 pats Of butter
small bits Of sicl1ly salad, the patties
of cold peas, the pale mashed 20
tatoes, the weak, melting ice cream.
But there is no doubt that they
are country savers. We can't seem
to get anything done without them,
Everybody hates them, and the
speeches are nearly always worse
than the food, but our brains seem
incapable of devising any other sort
Of inducement to get work out OF
our neighbors. Like the slow-going
ass, somebody must always be hold
ing fodder in front of our noses be

OF course, the women are just as
bad, II not worse, than the men
They are perpetually having their
luncheons, and before they can get
up any enthusiasms Of any kind, ne
matter how worthy, they must be
fed hot tea and cakes.
Marie Corelli once said that We
would never be really civilized unit
we stopped eating in public. We
might not agree with that entirely
but we could almost believe thai
we will never be really sensible uu-
til we stop eating so often in public
1t looks as If when we had work
to do that was worthy Of doing, we
might set about 1t either individually
or as a civic body without having to
be coaxed with provender.
And there is almost enough food
wasted at one Of these general feeds
to supply the poor Of the city for a

Even the South Sea Islander hus-
band must puzzle his woody head
over this when his village women
dance forth from their huts with red
hibiscus behind their ears and new
shredded wheat skirts around slim
waists; but he's no more baff1ed than
the North American whose wife
sends home three hats on approval
and tries them on, literally for hours.
The husband only vaguely grasps
that women dress" whereas men
merely clothe themselves, but he
can testify and understand that this
same dressing" empties the pocket
book. That women actually find soul
expression, find sheer spiritual up
lift in looking their best-no, this
he can never understand.
when I've grown terribly low in
my spirits and things look drab and
uninteresting, why, l go and buy a
new hat and life takes on new in
terests," a famous prima donna once
declared. That sounds shallow
minded of course, but even really
substantial woman can find worlds
of satisfaction in knowing that the
rose of her hat facing and the vivid
ness of her scarf bring out that rose
of her skin and the blue of her
eyes.
Anyway, woman dresses primarily
to please the something within her
self that responds to beautiful col
oring, line and balance; If at the
same time, the man of her heart,
looking upon her, has the light of
approval in his eyes and other wom-
en-, the CLEAN of respect for her art
Of dressing-well, it's just good old
world, that's all.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

The examination of Bob Hathaway
by the coroner was mercifully brief
and to the point. Dr. Murchison al
lowed him to tell. in his own words,
of his arrival at the Cluny house
at approximately quarter to nine,
of his finding his uncie's body a few
feet from the partly opened window.
He identified the broken Chinese
vase, indicated by DIR. Enos Paxton
as the instrument used in commit
ting the murder, as the property OF
his uncle.
Mr., Hathaway, do you remember
where this vase was accustomed to
stand?" the coroner asked.

NYE SAYS EAST SHOULD

North Dakota Senator Urges Re-

Prosperity's Cause.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 30.-The
West always has aided the East in
legislation that promotes the pros
perity of that section. and it is time
for the East to reciprocate, Senator
Gerald P. Nye Of North Dakota said
here Sunday night, speaking in the
Labor Temple.
I'm the past" he said. there has
been a lack Of responsiveness at Wash
ington to the demands Of those whose
welfare is dependent upon the vital
industry Of agriculture. l am asking
that there be a greater and more
prompt response to those needs"
An agricultural strike which would
justify the importation Of food sup
plies from abroad might be regarded
with favor by the financial forces
Of the East" he suggested. He said
that this importation Of food would
be an expedient method for these
financial forces" to collect debts
owed by private debtors in foreign
lands.

BROOKHART CALLS
PROSPERITY SHAM
Means Sheriff's Sales for
Farmers Needing LegisIa-
tion, He Says.
By the Associated Press.

DES MONIES, November 30.-Sen.
ator-elect Smith W.. Brookhart in a
statement Sunday night said Amer
ica's much-vaunted prosperity means
sheriffs sales for the farmer"
Commenting on the closing of 10
Iowa banks last week, the Senator
asserted 'the agricultural situation
has been produced by laws and can
only be remedied by law. Wall Street
opposition by defeating the farm
equalization bill has continued situ-
alton which is bringing greater dis
aster for agriculture and banks in
agricultural territory.
Decline In Land Value.
The census value of Iowa lands in
1920 was 1927 per acre. In 1925 this
had declined to $149 an acre. During
the same period nearly all stocks ad-
Nanced very heavily on the Wall
Street market. Perhaps railroad
stocks alone advanced as much as real
estate values declined in Iowa.
The situation means that the
farmers of Iowa received over $780,
100000 a year less than they were
Justly entitled to receive for their
products. The Wall Street boom in
creased the prices the farmers had
to pay for what they had to buy and
decreased the prices they received for
their products.
Dependence of Banl6s.
This sent many farmers into
bankruptcy, and the failure of the
farmer has caused the failure of the
banks. The situation in agriculture
everywhere is about the same as in
Iowa. and during this and the preced-
ing administration about 1000, 900
: farmers in the United States have
lost their homes.
Several hundred banks in Iowa
