National Anthem in Dispute.

When to play the national anthem
has caused great discussion in Aus
tralia following the request of the
Returned Soldiers League that man
ayers Of theaters play it at the open
ing instead of at the close of per-
formances. The soldiers say that the
exit scramble interferes with the
proper observance of the singing,
while managers claim that late COM
ers would spoil the anthem when sung
as the opening number Managers
also point out that there seldom is any
sign of Indifference, and that few
other countries continue the singing
of national anthems at every perform
ance.

exactly what we seem to be trying
to make ourselves believe.
Still Unhappy
More marriages and easier di-
vorces are being advocated regard
less of the fact that the more we
change our wedding rings the I'M
happier we appear to be. We are so
afraid that we will appear credulous
that we believe in nothing. We are
so shamed of being slaves of con-
vention that we are fast losing the
last shreds of our morals. We are
so alarmed lest we fail to lead free
existences that we are all suffering
because nobody is dutiful to others
any more. Self has become such a
deity with us that our spiritual at
tributes have about disappeared.
And yet the fellows who are so
anxious to have us free do not seem
to be much better off nor any hap
pier Than we who still are shackied
with a few family duties.
And Rotarianism-tha word that
to intellectuals is like the red rag
to bull do you suppose after all,
that it harbors any more than some
of our literary circles?

Freedom on
Mad Career
to License
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY Mrs. WALIEh FEROOOON
Trailing in the footsteps of H. L.
. Mencken, Sherwood Anderson, Carl
Van Vechten, Burton Roscoe and
sundry other iconoclasts, the forces
of pure intellect often give evidence
of having no more sense than the
hicks and hayseeds they criticize.
They have long been screaming
about the futility of enduring I'M
happy marriage. But are half a
dozen unhappy matings any more
sensible than only one?
Throwing off the shackles OF reli-
gious superstition is not such a
praiseworthy thing if one becomes
bound again with the thongs OF
skepticism.
Having hatred for prohibition is
not mark of deep wisdom if you
are so intolerant IF its advocates
that you speak OF hem s-lways as
yahoos and peruna fsc1nds.
Drift to License
Z Being individual and free is all
very fine provided you know where
to stop, but at the rate we ar. now
travelling we appear to be mGsely
transferring ourselves from the fry
ing pan of convention into the fire
of license.
Today most of the reformers are
far more intolerant in their views
than those whom they hope to i'm
prove.
And, as Tracy so wisely has said,
just because a thing is old is no
sign that it is bad. Yet that is

indigestion always came back worse
than before. Whenever 1 managed
to eat, my food would lie in my
stomach without digesting and felt
like a heavy rock. This brought on

noticed this medicine was helping
me almost at once, and each day
was getting better After a few
weeks my troubles had never re-
turned, and I didn't know what to
make of it. I have taken six bot
ties of Konjola, and got permanent
relief. I can eat anything I want
and never have a sign of indiges-
ton. All the gas bloating pains and
other miseries are gone. I am also
free of constipation, and my system
is regulated in general. I sleep bet

Konjola for the new health I en-

Konjola is not only for stomach
trouble, but is new liquid COM

Fight Casualties.

While there were no casualties in
the prize ring in Chicago Thursday
night, the affair between Dempsey
and Tunney took a heavy toll of life.
According to reports from various
parts of the country no less than ten
Millions of people were listening to
the reports from the ringside sent by
radio. 1t is a tribute to the dramatic
ally descriptive powers of the broad
caster that he made the word picture
SO vividly realistic that his hearers
were brought to high pitch through
ment.
Spectators at ball games have been
known to collapse at times of great
excitement and foot ball has, likewise,
cost some lives owing to the tension
caused by furious encounters. 1t is
not surprising, therefore, that out of
the great uncountable multitudes that
heard the description of the fight
Thursday night half a score should
have succumbed to the strain of sus-
pense and agitation.
Evidently persons with any heart
weakness or tendency toward emotion
al agitation should not listen in to the
accounts of these championship en-.
gagements. There is a definite risk in
hearing the story of blows exchanged
and the count of seconds as a con.
tender is fioored. The very roars of
the crowd are audible and stir the
blood: The radio, In short, brings
millions to the ringside.
1t is singular fact that practically
all of those who heard the account of
the fight at long distances Thursday
night knew the result before many
of those who were present in the
arena, who, in their long.range seats,
were unaware of the decision. The
question arises whether this facility
of almost literally seeing the entire
spectacle in comfort and without cost
may not have an effect on the at.
tendance 'at future fights.
