DEMONSTRATIONS
STAGED AGAINST
JAPANESE RULE
KOREAN STUDENTS CAUSE
DISORDERS IN CONNEC-
TION WITH FUNERAL OF
PRINCE VI
CBy Associated Press)

SEOUL, Korea, June 10.-Dis-
orders growing out of the attempt
of Korean students to protest
against japanese rule marred the
serenity of the first phase of the
great two-day funeral of Prince
vi, one-time emperor of Korea,
today. Although the disturbances
were quelled and the funeral pro-
gram went forward, the Japanese
authorities fear more trouble is in
prospect before the ceremonies are
completed.
While the funeral procession
was moving through the streets
this morning, with the great cof-
fin being carried from the palace
to the funeral pavilion in a parade
ground a mile away, students tried
to circulate infiamatory literature
against the present rulers of Yi's
former kingdom. Troops, police
and gendarmes quickly arrested
scores, but the march was serious
ly impeded and it required some
time to quiet the crowds which
openly showed sympathy with the
students. Late reports place the
number of arrests at 800.
Stones were hurled, and many
shop windows were broken. The
wife of a secretary of the Japan
ese governor general, Admiral
Baron Sa.tO, tainted in the melee
and was slightly injured in the
surging crowd.
Despite the students demonstras
tion and the atmosphere of uneasi-
ness, the rites moved forward on
the grand scale planned by the
japanese according to schedule.
The first ceremonies began at the
palace followed by the march
through the streets.

ENORMOUS EXPENDITURES MADE

WASHINGTON, June I0.-The
senate campaign investigating
committee at the very beginning
of its broad inquiry into the past,
present and future 1926 primary
and election contests. has en-
countered expenditures mounting
well up into six figures in the
Pennsylvania Republican pri-
maries.
This campaign which resulted
in the nomination of Representa-
tive Ware, Philadelphia political
leader and wet, over Senator
Pepper, and Governor Pinchot
who leaned more or less heavily
toward the dry side, was given
first place on the committees
docket because of charges and
ounter-charges published during
and after the race.
Representative Ware and Gov.
Finchot both were on hand for
the opening of the hearing, and
expenditures made on behalf of
the latter's candidacy list at more
than S160,000, were the first to
get into the record, but toward
the end of the session 100000
was mentioned in connection with
the Pepper campaign.
Governor Pinchet's campaign
treasurer, P. S. Stahlnecker. was
the witness who brought the latter
sum to the committees attention
for its further consideration.
Expenditures in bcheif Of Rep
resentative Ware and Senator
Pepper, who had the support of
the Mellon group in Pittsburgh,
were not gone into directly at the
opening session.

TEACHING LIFE TO YOUEH
(Nogales Herald)

A Cincinnati girl, 16, eloped with
a 19year-old boy the other day.
The two were married, and came
back to face the world together
in all their youthful, helpless ig-
norance.
The girls mother, while refus-
ing to interfere with the match
once it was accomplished, was bit
ter against the public schools.
If the schools, she said, would
devote less time to "eye and ear''
stuff and more time to teaching
children and young people now to
live, her daughter would have rea-
llzed that she wasn't ready for mar
riage yet.
Perhaps she was wrong i1 Mac
ing all the blame on the SCHOOLS.
It's possible that parents, too. have
responsibility there. But her
main point is correct Our chill
dren aren't being taught how to
live.
10 be sure, imparting that bit
of information is rather a large
task. Perhaps there are very few
OF us who really know how to live
ourselves. But it's something that
must be taught You can always
learn it by bitter experience, but
that's a hard way, and your life
is apt to be just about over bv the
time you've learned.
TO learn how to live! To learn.
IN the morning of life, how to tao.
kle the world; how to bring reality
TO those shifting, sunlit visions that
youth engenders; how to make life
something rich and full and com
plete, instead of letting it become
a mere process of eating and sleep
ing and working and getting; to
learn that life may be joyous and
exuDerant instead of cramped and
narroW-those are a few Of the
things for which youth is hunger
ing.
We all know that life was meant
to be beautiful, free and brimn1ing
with zest. Yet somehow it so of
ten fails to become any of these
things. And the fault-nearly al
ways-lies in the things that. the

her, every chance they got. In
fact it finally got to such severe
point that the mere mention of
going home was good for a pair
of shoes or a new blouse or so.
One day, however, while spearing

headline which halted her. 1t

tersely told of Goldie's stepmother,
who being annoyed by her hus-
bands habit of opening cans with
her false teeth, had forsaken him
for the purveyor of ice who made
their block. Not only that, but by
twist of luck, her fathers all
ready bloated roll had taken on
weight from break in the market.
The rest needs little telling. A
short sprint to the corner pawn
shop and an hour of haggling with
Uncle Ike gave Goldilocks taxi fare
home, and she was soon engaged
in crying her father out of a string
of genuine graduated pearls. So
they lived happily ever after
