him will question-his fundamental
honesty of purpose. His personality
and his integrity won him more
friends, while he served in congress,
than any other leader of his day
could boast. He is known in sena-
torial circles as the imam without an
enemy"
These traits probably are a heri-
tage of his Indian ancestors. Curtis
is scion of royal Indian blood from
the Kaw tribe that once roamed the
prairies that later became Kansas
and Oklahoma. He is the first can
didate Of either major party to have
real American blood in his veins.
In the battle for the presidential
nomination, Curtis stood upon his
record as republican leader of the
senate and as legislator of 35 years
service in congress. His platform
was brief, containing only five planks.
They were promises of:
An administration that will foster
prosperity.
Economy but not parsimony in gov
eminent
A helpful administrative interest in
agriculture's problems.
Strict enforcement of all laws, in
GLIDING the prohibition law.
Enforcement of the constitutional
guarantee of religious liberty.

tic of him to speak upon subjects, on
which he holds convictions, though
other men sidestep them. So it was
with his public record in congress.
He voted his convictions though at
times he seemed to stand alone.
His record may be summarized as
follows:

the bonus bill was Objectionable. Cur
tbs, however, introduced it and Lodge
Netoed it, both withstood terrific
pressure and voted to enact it over
the veto.
In 1924, when Coolidge was NOM
mated and was elected president in
his own right, both Curtis and Lodge
were punished. It was due to thai
bonus vote. it became known later
that COOLIDGE opposed having Curt 5
on the ticket as the nsminee for vie
president.
A second instance came during the
oil scandals, when the senate demand
ed the resignation of Secretary of
the Navy DENLY Although it could
have been a mighty unpopular thing
Curtis voted against the resolution
that demanded Denby's resignation.
That vote required supreme cour-
age at the time, but Curtis declared
the senate was invading tie exec tive
powers and having reached t de-
cision, he voted against tie resolution.
Was Poor Mems sn
The life of Curtis proves that
truth is stranger than Fl He
was poor mans son, boYa in log
cabin, living his youth n a wild
frontier among Indians ana yet he
rose to the leadership of his party
in congress and finally to the highest
honor his party could bestow.
His father was Capt. 0. A. Curtis,
a hardy pioneer of English extraction,
whose forbears came from New
England. His mother was Ellen Pap
pan, quarter Indian, the daughter of
Princess Julie Pappan, of the Kaw
tribe. 1t is through her that Curtis
traces his ancestry back to Pawhuska,
chief of the Usage tribe, and White
Plume, chief of the Kaws.
His record as a prosecuting officer
was sensational. Once in office, he

In 1892, he was first elected to con-

After a fast game of tennis, ar
invigorating nine or eighteen holes of
golf, cold drink seems to be the only
thing that will refresh one. Wise is
the housewife who realizes this and
always keeps a supply of chilled bev-
erages on hand.
The foundation syrups for summer
drinks are easily made and if bottled
will keep for a long time. With the
syrups on hand, of course, it is but
a matter of minutes to dilute with
waite and add ice cubes or chopped
ice.
Fuit Juices Delicious
The liquid from canned cherries,
pineapple, currants, raspbersies and
peaches make delicious drinks when
mixed with lemon juice and ginger
ale to taste.
The numerous commercial bottled
beverages are very convenient and Of
course, are easier to prepare than the
others, although the latter may have
more variety.
Sprigs of mint, maraschino cher
ries, orange and lemon peel and small
pieces of canned pineapple will add
to the attractiveness when added to
each glass before serving.
Tiny, open-faced sandwiches or
plain waters can be served with cold
drinks but are not necessary.

Fly Control on Farms


The most effective way of control
ling flies on the farm is to clean out
barns and barnyards on certain day
of each week. The manure should
be spread out thinly on the land as
the flies will not breed there. Adding
fly poison to manure in boxes and
piles does no good.
Until everyone does his share in
preventing fly breeding, other meas
ures against flies are necessary. This
is true because flies will fly distances
Of 10 miles in week. Tests made to
determine the migration of flies gave
such information as this: A fly was
caught II miles from the place where
he had been caught and liberated
The department survey recon-
mends the use of fly traps baited with
black strap molasses, diluted with
water in the proportion of to 4.
In one set of such experiments COW
ering one season, SO gallons of flies
were caught with 10 of these traps.
Killing Flies on Stock
For killing flies on stock, especially
biting stable flies and horn flies,
sprays, of pyrethrum powder, dis
solved in kerosene, may be used to
advantage. One pound of this pow
der is soaked in two gallons of kero-
sene and spray made. When this
Is sprayed on milk cows an hour be-
fore milking, the milk has no odor or
taste of the kerosene. This spray is
not to be regarded as fly repellant;
1t is fly killer. The solution is to
be sprayed directly on the animal and
INTO the swarms of flies that infest the
stables.

Operators Must Use Care Around
Power Equipment

With the increasing popularity of
power amplifiers and power packs
radio has entered the power field
from the standpoint of the use of high
voltage equipment.
In many of the power packs en-
ploying rectifier tubes of the CX-3S0
and CX-381 type for use with power
amplifiers using the CX-310 tubes in
single or push-pull arrangements, the
voltage supplied to the power tubes
often run over 400 volts.
In using such equipment no danger
is involved either to persons or to
equipment if ordinary common sense
precautions are taken in its use. It is
well to remember that in dealing with
such voltages the current source
should be turned off before any at
tempt is made to change tubes, equip
ment or wiring.
Pulling a CX-310 tube out of its
socket, for instance, while the current
to the power pack and amplifier is
turned on will cause a surge of volt
age which may be sufficient to charge
the filter condensers of the power
pack to the breakdown point unless
The eondensers are designed to with.
stand very high voltages.
The usual result of breakdown in
the condensers is a decided heating
in the rectifier tube, causing the tube
elements to get red hot. This will
ruin the rectifier tube if not caught
in time and may even result in suf-
flcient heat to break the glass of the
tube.

The Fly Problem on the Farm
fles offer a problem on farms that
IS considered of sufficient Importance
70 lead the United States department
81 agriculture to issue some timely
suggestions ON methods of fly con-
sfol on farms.
Our Changed Attitude Toward Flies
There was time when people re-
garded the fly as just a part of sum-
mer. Like the heat, they came in
June and left in October. The fact
that there were a dozen busy flies in
the sugar bowl and three or four de-
ceased ones in the milk pitcher didn't
bother people. The only time they
annoyed our elders was when one bit
them on their bald spot or parked on
heir nose while trying to take nap
n the shade of the old apple tree.
1t never occurred to folks that the
pie they ate with such greet relish
was covered with myriads Of germs
deposited there by tle lilies who came
into the house for dessert after a 81
esta on the manure pile.
Today, with our increased knowl-
edge of the menace of the fly as
disease carrier, we are doing every
thing possible to eliminate this per-
email pest. The careless attitude of
the past has given way to deter
mined warfare that is destined to re-
suit in the eventual extinction of the
fly. In doing this we may be dispos-
ing of an agency that is unconsciously
serving humanity in destroying other
dangerous forms of life. If so, we
will have to meet that new problem
if and as it arises. The fact remains,
however, that the fly is doing more
harm than good, so far as anyone
has been able to determine, and has
no place in the modern scheme of
things.

England's boast that Britannia ruled

with her defeat at North Point and
Fort McHenry, they soon arranged for
the treaty of peace which was signed
at Client on December "a, 1914.
Later Garrison Post.
Fort McHenry was a garrison post
during the war with Mexico where
men were enlisted and prepared for
active service. In the Civil War it per-
formed the same function, and many
prisoners were confined there, especi-
ally after the battle of Gettysburg,
when large numbers of wounded men
were brought to the fort. Its officers
examined and indicted the Maryland
National Guard into the Federal Vol
unteer service during the Spanish
American War and the Sixth United
States Artillery, which garrisoned the
post, was one of the first regiments to
reach Cuba. One of the largest mil
itary hospitals in the country was
built on the reservation during the
World War and this was maintained
for several years thereafter, caring
for thousands of wounded and other
wise disabled soldiers, until it was
finally evacuated
The art of war has been changed
by modern implements and high power
explosives, until the usefulness of old
Fort McHenry has passed as forti-
fication. 1t is being restored as it
was during its bombardment, Septem-
Der Is and IA, 1914, and it's glory will
still live as a national shrine-the
birthplace of "The Star Spangled Ban
ner"-and the defense of Baltimore,
the only large city on our Atlantic
Coast over which the enemy's flag
has never flown.

America with the rest of the world
was restricted by British Orders of
Council and French Imperial DEGREES.
We were forbidden by either nation to
trade with the other and her allies.
Nation On Fence
There was a strong element in this
country which favored England be-
cause of natural blood ties, and an
other that favored France because of
the help that she had given us during
our Revolution. While Washington
lived he taught and encouraged the
idea that America must be an indie
pendent nation, free from all foreign
entanglements; but Washington died
in 1899, and although the several
Presidents who followed him were I'M
doubted patriots, none of them had the
confidence of the people that Wash
ington had enjoyed, nor his strength
of character and his keen insight into
national affairs.
Great Britain saw her opportunity
to demoralize our Government and at
tempted, through her emissaries, 70
create discord between New England
and the Southern States. She had
never given up the hope of regaining
her lost colonies. She was mistress of
the seas and her navy hoyered along
our coast and seized our shipping in
her efforts to prevent our trade with
France and the West Indies. In her
demands for seamen for her fleets, she
boarded our vessels and impressed
American sailors into her service, even
boarding the vessels of our navy and
taking off. enlisted men, and it might
be interesting to know that the first
vessel of our navy which she held up
for this purpose was the sloop of war
Baltimore.
Our people became provoked over
Britain's unjust activities, and in his
attempt to solve this international
problem Thomas jefferson imposed
the embargo act as an effort to avoid
war Its restrictions were so con-
trary to human nature that it was
openly broken, until after fourteen
months of hardship on the American
trade it was repealed. Jefferson's pol
icy of non-aggression not only proved
failure but it encouraged England
to deny our rights, and because of her
tyrannical impositions Congress was
compelled to protect our dignity by
declaring war on Great Britain on
June 1S, 1912.
