Buried Treasure.

OF all the adventures that lure men
to face desperate dangers and to ex-
pend the most lahorious toll the
buried treasure" is the most potent.
From time immemorial seekers for
buried gold have gone forth into re-
savage peoples, to dig and dive for the
loot of pirates, the caches Of pioneers,
the secret boards of plutocrats, and
the precious cargoes of sunken ships.
Innumerable have been the sacrifices
of this endeavor to reclaim the precious
things that have been lost or hidden.
No reckoning can be made of the losses
of life, or the expenditure of money in
promotion of these enterprises
About two years ago there came to
light signs of the burial of an iron
chest in the sands of the Suwanee
River in Florida. A riverman, who Is
known merely as uncle Tom" found
it. He tried to reclaim it, and went
broke in the effort. Then some Jack
Sonville business men, hearing of the
find, took over the task Of bringing the
chest out of the quicksands and man
aged to get it to within few feet of
the surface. when it fell back. 1t was
in that brief glimpse revealed as about
as big as good-sized trunk, and very
heavy. Now a development COM
pany' has been formed and is going
after the chest with improved methods.
All this effort is gamble. Nobody
knows what the chest contains. 1t
may hold valuables, or 1t may be
empty, or its contents may be worth
less. But 1t is a chest, 1t is Of metal,
it is in the sands, 1t is in Florida, and
1t resists all efforts thus far to bring
1t forth. What more could be asked
to complete the picture Of buried treas
ure? Florida was unquestionably the
scene of piratical activities in long
past times. The freebooters of the
seas made 1t their headquarters. It's
rivers and lagoons and marshes were
their hiding places and bases of oper-
alton. 1t is tradition that when pirates
were compelled to fee they buried their
loot Sometimes they buried the men
who helped them to bury the loot.
Somtimes they forgot or were unable
to return to reclaim 1t. So whenever
big box is located below the surface,
especially near the water, the assump-
ton is that 1t contains treasure, and
nothing viii check the efforts Of men
10 obtain 1t.

the din unless they have extremely dull

the din unless they have extremely dull
ears.
The radio nuisance--and 1t really has
become one--is not merely one of volume
of sound, but protraction and con-
tinuity. In some homes the dials are
turned at seven O'Clock in the morning
for the setting-up exercises and are not
turned off until midnight. Hour after
hour the sounds come forth--music,
speeches, plays. more music, classic and
Jazz more speeches How the jewellers
in such an establishment stand the
strain is beyond comprehension Neigh
bors do not like to complain, although
they suffer keenly. Probably in many
cases those who inflict this nuisance
upon nearby residents have no idea of
the annoyance and suffering caused by
IT, What is needed is a proper sense of
values as we'll as a measure OF thought
fulness for others.
New regulations governing this nui-
Sance may be required if the radio users
do not themselves adjust their dials and
the power of their instruments. This
matter might with profit be considered
by the District Commissioners and by
the authorities of the suburban areas In
the adjoining States to the end, per-
haps, Of finding some method OF correc-
ton which will not put the burden of
complaint and proof UPON the sufferers.

query. 1t is true that, now we see
through a glass darkly, that our knowl-
edge Is partial and incomplete, and
yet every day rightly lived is fresher,
fuller revelation of the splendor of a
mighty plan and the part we are privi-
legged to play in effecting it. Even the
trials, misfortunes and disciplines of
life come to make more evident to us
the plan that is designed for our high
er development and enrichment. The
rich privileges and opportunities that
are ours, rightly apprehended, serve
to make clear to us the goodness OF
beneficent Father.
Each succeeding year must bring us
nearer to fuller and more complete
knowledge. We are going from the par
tial and the imperfect on TO the larger
and more complete fulflllment of life's
highest aspirations. From this little plot
of ground on which we stand we are
moving step by step onward and up to
higher attitudes whence ultimately
we shall, like Moses view the land of
promise. This means to make life a

fulfillment, for completion, for finer
self-realization. The great poet of old

Senator Curtis on Farm Relief.

While as rule a small measure Of
interest is felt in the formal speech Of
acceptance Of a vice presidential nomi-
nee. that delivered yesterday at Topeka
BY Senator Curtis, named by the Re-
publican party at Kansas City as Her
bert Hoover's running mate" possesses
9 marked degree Of Importance in its
bearing upon the So-called farm prob
lem. which enters so largely into this
present campaign. Senator Curtis was
selected as the Republican vice presi-
Genital candidate mainly because Of his
geographical position in the heart of
the agricultural area of the Middle West
and because Of his close relationship TO
the farm interest throughout his con-
gress!onal career. The organized farm
ers were not warmly friendly to Mr..
Hoover. They had at Kansas City asked
for more in the way Of platform recog-
milton and promise than they obtained.
II was necessary for party advantage to
place on the ticket one who had sup
ported their views and striven to meet
their demands for legislation.
In his speech of acceptance Senator
Curtis strikes no new note, however, in
comparison with that of the Palo Alto
address Of Mr.. Hoover. He does not go
beyond the party platform adopted at
Kansas City. though he emphasizes and
eniarges upon it. reciting the efforts
made by himself in Congress to secure
measures Of sound relief for the farm
ers. He claims credit for his party for
whatever has been done by the Govern
ment in effective aid for agriculture,
and he expresses the belief that rem
edy for the present ills of Americas
greatest industry viii be found by it
"and found promptly"
In a few days Gov. Smith will, m his
speech of acceptance, discuss this same
question of agricultural relief. and per-
haps in his address likewise Senator
Robinson will devote space to the same
question. There is no reason to look for
any novelty in these formal talks. The
matter has been threshed out thor
oughly in conferences between repre-
sentatives Of the agricultural organiza-
tons and the campaign manager and
the candidate of the Democratic party.
The equalization fee has been By the
latter put aside as impracticable, There
Is no issue remaining save one Of good
faith and confidence.
Neither Mr.. Hoover nor Senator Cur
Is has In the discussion Of this question
propounded any specific formula Of
farm relief. Nor is 1t to be expected that
Gov. Smith will write prescription for
the ailing farmer. Thus it comes about

This matter of the proposed debate
between Gov. Smith and Rev. John
Roach Straton is getting complicated
The sequence of events is approximately
as follows: In the course of sermon
the clergyman denounced the governor
as a foe TO moral progress: the governor
promptly challenged the clergyman to
a debate In the lstter's church. DR..
StTaton accepted the challenge, but sug-
geSted that the meeting be held in
Madison Square Garden or some other
large place. later Offering TO meet the
governor in st. Patrick'S Cathedral;
Gov. Smith rejoined that the meeting
should be held in Dr. Straton's church,
where the original charge was uttered
DR.. Straton, having been informed that
the trustees of his church would not
countenance a political discussion within
that editice, reiterated his proposal for
q debate in commodious public hall:
Gov. Smith specifically, in letter, asked
for categorical reply to the challenge,
and now Dr. Straton sends a letter
standing as the challenged party on
the time honored privilege OF naming
the place for the discussion" and meet
ing the demand for a specific answer
with an emphatic and Interchangeable
yes" Thus the matter stands at present.
1t would seem to be out OF the cues
ton to hold the debate in DR.. Straton's
church and equally out of the question
to hold it In the cathedral If Gov.
Smith comedies the right of the chal-
lenged parson to choose the ground of
the meeting it win be up to DR.. Straton
to name the place. II, however, the
governor stands on his initial PROPOSE
ton TO debate the question in DR..
Straton's church the chances for a
forensic duel will have vanished. Which
viii leave the situation open to partisan
deductions. Those vino agree with DR..
Straton will aver that the governor has
evaded showdown. Those who SYM
pathize with the governor win conclude
that the clergyman is lodging the issue.
Meanwhile sight has somewhat been
lost OF the fact that all of this to-do
relates to Gov. Smiths record as a
legislator at Albany before he became
the chief executive of the State in re-
Spect TO the support of liquor dis
pensaries, once known as saloons. DR..
straton's broad generality in denounc-
ing Gov Smith as foe to moral prog
ress touches on and appertains to-as
Police Chief Devery of New York used
to say-that record, but goes further
and paints the governor In lineaments
that are undeniably dissimiiar to those
that have become familiar to the peo-
pie of the country during the past
decade.
Some of Gov. Smiths advisers were
disturbed by his challenge to Dr..
Straton, believing that 1t was unwise
thus to dignity loose pulpit utterance
and was calculated to evoke needless
publicity regarding matters of the past
that have been modified and outdated
by the governors record as State execu-
tive and by his telegram of acceptance
TO the Democratic convention at Hous-
ton. The subsequent events have rather
justified this view, for as the case now
stands the governor must either meet
DR.. Straton on the latters own terms
or, by his refusal to do so. close the in
cident without glory or advantage.
