SAYINGS OF
MRS.SOLOMON
BY Helen Rowland
The He-Vamp

The He-Vamp
Verify, verify, my Daughter.
not ALL the vamps wear knee
length skirts and rolled stock
ings!
Nay, some of them wear trous-
ers and mustaches and silk opera
hats and snappy top-coats. And
unto these every woman is a new
GAME and every damsel another
experiment"
I charge thee, be not deceived
by. the He-Vamp. For his words
are full of honey and caution;
but his ways are full of guile.
And his heart is as a transient
hotel wherein there is room for
all and where no woman abideth
for more than a day.
Lo, one damsel leadeth him to
a secret trysting place. And
upon the next evening he leadeth
another damsel thither and telleth
her the same sweet fairy tale.
One woman quoteth him tender
verses from her favorite poet.
And upon the following night he
murmureth the same tender verses
into the ear of the next woman.
One damsel guideth him unto
her pet restaurant. And, within
the week, he hath led another
damsel thither.
One woman teacheth him
new line and within the day he
hath sprung 1t upon another
damsel as his OWN.
For all women are as ONE
woman unto him-and that one
a new addition to his ''collec.
tion."
All his Fascinating ways'' are
but parlor tricks and stale
stunts culled from the garden
of Experience: all his lines" are
secondhand and all his love-mak-
ing but cheap edition! And
originality is not IN him!
10 TO. some men collect Jewels,
and some men collect books and
some collect butterflies. And
unto these, each treasure in his
collection is a beloved possession.
But. the He-Vamp collecteth
only WoMEN--and each of these
is but a passing amusement.
--
Then, beware lest thou fall for
one of these For every damsel
saith in her heart, 10, he may
have only PLAYED with others;
but, with NE, he is serious!'
But shall answer her, "Ha-ha!
Do not jolly thyself!'
For, save his own vanity, the
He-Vamp taketh nothing in all
the world seriously-not even a
FUNERAL!
SELAH.

Parents Are Educated by
Their Children
This Small Boys Prayer Illustrates That Fact

Mr. Tarwe of Chicago sends the touching verse printed
below taken from the Wnneta Ill., Congregational Church
Bulletin:
THE TWO PRAYERS
Last night my little boy confessed to me
Some childish wrong;
And kneeling at my knee
He prayed with tears
Dear God, make me man
Like daddy-wise and strong;
know you cam
Then while he slept
I knelt beside his bed
Confessed my sins,
And prayed with low-bowed head,
30 God, make child
Like my child here
Pure, guileless,
Trusting Thee with faith sincere

Those verses than charming and touching They
illustrate most important truth in the progress Of the
race which is tie fact that CHILDREN EDUCATE THEIR
PARENTS.

Misrepresentation

under-Secretary Of the Treasury Ogden
L. Mills. Mr.. Melons assistant, is guilty of
a gross misrepresentation in his recent
statement on debt reduction. Mr.. Mills
said that the policy of debt retirement"
under Presidents Harding and Coolidge
has resulted in reducing our gross ma.
tional debt from $24.484. 100000 on
June 80. 1919, to 1888 900, 900 on May
81, 1927, or reduction of So. GIL 900, 900. ="
From June 80. 1919. when debt reduction
began. until March 4, 1921. Woodrow vii.
son was President and a Democrat was
Secretary of the Treasury During that
period. the national debt was reduced
S2.4OO.0O0,000. which is more than one
third the total reduction and greater than
achieved by the Republican administration
IN any three-year period. Furthermore. il
was under Woodrow Wilson and a Demo-
cratic Secretary of the Treasury that the
debt reduction plan was adopted. and the
Republican administrations have simply
followed Democratic precedent. Yet Mr..
Mills seeks to have the country believe
that the Harding and Coolidge admins.
trations are due the credit for all of the
reduction, which is as unfair as his fake
milk issue" raised in his aubernatorial
race in New York last fall on which he
was repudiated by the voters of that State
by an overwhelming majority.

Farmers Incensed.

Farm organizations and farmers generally
are incensed at the Coolidge administra-'
ton because Of its action in placing the
Federal Loan Board under the domination
OF Secretary Of the Treasury Mellon.
President Coolidge recently displaced Ed
ward E. Jones Of Pennsylvania, Robert A.
Cooper Of South Carolina and Elmer S.
Lands of Ohio as members of the Farm
Loan Board with Eugene Meyer Of Wall
Street, tlord R. Harrison and George r.
Cooksey. They were transferred bodily to
the Farm Loan Board from the War Finance
Corporation and the Board thus becomes a
mere rubber stamp for Secretary Mellon
and special interests. Although the joint
stock land banks and other rural institu-
tions for farm credits are owned by the
farmers themselves, control of them has
now passed to Mr.. Mellon and his rubber
stamp board. The action of President
Coolidge in thus turning control of farm
credits over to big business" was de-
nounced by the recent Des Moines corn
belt conference" of farmers in the follow
ing resolution:
I'VE protest with every ounce Of our
power against the appointment of Eugene
Meyer as the head of the Federal Land
Bank system Of the United States, as well
as the selection of the two other gentle
men named TO this board These selections
were made against the protest Of the
farmers who own these banks and 1t is our
firm conviction that these appointments
were not made in the interest of the farm
ers or their banking institutions. but to
carry out program inimical to the best
interests of the farmer and to hamper the
proper functionine of these institutions in
the furnishing Of proper and necessary
credit facilities to the farmers of the coun
try. We call upon the Senate to refuse
confirmation Of these appointments"
1t is extremely doubtful that the Senate
will confirm the appointments of Mr.. Meyer
and his associates.
