ILLINOIS CATTLE
Yin TROPHIES
L N EXPOSITION

CHICAGO, Nov. 30, (F)--Blue blood
ed cattle from the grassy slopes of
the Edellyn farms of wilson, ILL.,,
led North Americas best to capture
every single international trophy in
the cattle division at the international
Livestock exposition today.
Added to their impressive record, the
Illinois aristocrats won eight first
prizes, in other contests at the expo
sition, thereby becoming sound con-
tenders for class championships as the
exposition closed its third day of judg-
ing
The international trophies won by
the Edellyn farm bluebloods were the
Emilio R. Casares trophy, offered by
Emilio R. Casares of London and Bue-
nos Aires, South America; the Carlos
M Duggan trophy, offered by Don M.
Duggan of Buenos Aires, and the
medal given by the Shorthorn society
of Great Britain and Ireland. The
Edellyn cattle have won the Casares
and Duggan trophies two corsecu-
tive years. Three victories are neces-
sary for permanent ownership.
Today was the first of the exposl-
ton that Iowa livestock had their
glories dinmed, but the Hawkeyes
won a steady stream of victories
which had virtually clinched them the
all-prize championship of the exposl-
! ton Illinois, however, placed the next
to the largest number of winners and
was runner-up for the trophy.
Herman Trelle of Wembley, Alberta,
Canada, who lost his wheat king title
to a Montana farmer on Monday,
turned tables today and won the
oats growing championship OF North
America, defeating L. E. Peterson OF
Victor, Ont.
Trelle's oats, a victor variety
weighed 496 pounds per bushel, the
heaviest oats ever exhibited at the ex-
position.

and facts that are remote from gen
eral popular knowledge. The average
man in the United States looks upon
a national obligation in the same light
that he looks upon purely personal
obligation. He wholly overlookS the
fact that the mode and circumstance
of payment in the case Of great inter-
national obligations are quite unique.
All personal debts are conveniently
discharged by payment Of money In
ternational obligations cannot always
be so discharged, especially when they
are SO huge as those which have fol-
lowed the great war. This is simply
because the amount OF gold necessary
does not exist or at least is not OBTAIN
able for the purpose. These huge m
debtednesseS must be discharged, II at
all, chiefly in terms OF goods and
this fact Immediately raises large ana
reaching questions that are INDUS
trial and economic rather than strictly
financial. These involve the disloca-
ton of national industry, the altera-
ton of foreign exchange and the stand
ard of living in different countries
when an international debt is eX-
tended for payment over a long series
OF years, it may readily become
source of new international difficulties
and new international friction. In
my Judgment, public opinion is NOV
ing steadily but slowly toward re-
consideration of the whole financial
and economic situation produced by
the war, so far as that situation is in
the power of governments to control
What is needed is to bear in mind the
fact that there are conditions psychol-
cgical and conditions economic that
are far more important than condi-
tions purely financial, if we are TO
bear in mind the peace, the good or
der and the progress Of the civilized
nations of the world

Christmas Seals. The goal set this
year is $780, Students will not sell

Why Buy Christmas Seals to Fight
tuberculosis
/ Because tuberculosis can be cured
and prevented. Since 1904 the death
rate from tuberculosis decreased from
200 to 86,6 per hundred thousand
living population. This means a saw
ing of 10000 lives each year.
/ Because Tuberculosis is still the
most destructive and fatal disease
between the ages of is and A years.
Because Tuberculosis is the most
costly of diseases. The long period
of illness is costly in treatment and
in money lost through inability to
work.
Because Christmas Seal funds have
aided children to overcome the in
lection of tuberculosis and grow TO
strong, healthy, happy and useful
citizens.
Because of need of more funds for
sanatorium care, free clinics, visit
ing nurses, children's summer camps
and health education.
Because for twenty years the
Christmas Seals have been the power
back of the Anti tuberculosis cam
paign and have been largely re-
sponsible for its success.
Everyone can play some import
ant part in the Christmas Seal
sale. You can help to sell Christmas
Seals or you can help by purchas-
ing Christmas Seals. Every penny
and every dollar counts. DO your
part, whatever it may be, and your
Christmas Day will be a happier
one for you for knowing that you
/ have helped to make life easier for
those afflicted and safer for the
children of this generation.

"Never mind, Dear One, I am
glad it is all over and you are safely
back with me-"
"It's all right then, Honey Dear"
he answered, using his favorite term
of endearment as he kissed her.
During the fight Estelle, highly
nervous and overweight young
woman, remained in complete seclu-
sion with only ner trained nurse in
the luxurious apartment she occu-
pies in the hotel.
At 8 o'clock IN the evening, how
ever, she was glowing with conf
dence that my Jack" would win.
She had spent a couple of hours
with him in the afternoon and told
Of the excellent sleep he had taken
and how refreshed and rested he
seemed.
There was no radio in the room
and the results were telephored up
from the managers Office.
When the news came Estelle, who
had been courageously calm for the
half hour before, practically col
lapsed and became historical.
A guard placed at her door by
order Of her husband ordered news
paper reporters out of the hall, say
ing that, for The sake of her health,
Mrs. Dempsey must have absolute
quiet and rest.
BY the time Jack arrived she was
in complete control of herself and
her smile of reinsurance must have
greatly soothed a keene disappoint-
ment.

tune she received her fallen war
rior with all the tenderness and
motherliness 1t is the power Of a
woman to create. Hers was not the
spirit Of the Spartan woman, with
your shield or on it," but that of a
mother who is all anxiety over her
little boy.
And big burly Jack, shaven and
meek once more, was like little
boy, too. All the sadness lifted from
his face at her smile and her words.
He held tightly to her hand as she
examined the wound on his left eye
and ordered plenty of ice, ooctor,
and a hot bath at once.
She decreed a day Of rest for to-
day for both of them before they
leave for New York. What plans
they have neither would. say ex-
cept that their greatest desire was
to be alone with each other out of
