felt deeply grieved at their pass

on because he watched his diet
and remained exceedingly cheer
full and felt young.
He gave up red meat because
it didn't agree with him. He
had to give up tea. He gave up
champagne. Then in his end
year he had to give up coffee.
But he said it was worth it.
He was an ardent believer in
his country, and in the business
life of the United States. Some
of his beliefs on business and the
United States included:
"Our natural wealth is greater
than that of all Europe and is
owned, in a greater or less de-
gree, by an overwhelming per-
centage Of our population.
THE greatest and most benefi-
cent change which has occurred
in our time is the improvement
Of the relations between capital
and labor"
Most successful men have
owed their success to their alb
solute confidence in the future
of the United States"
And one of his most famous
sayings was:
This is a mighty good world
to live inland I want to stay
here as long as I can"

GRILL SUSPECT
Body, Badly Battered, Is
Found Along Road.

By IHtCd Press
EAST CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April
5.-A young married man, who had
been friendly with Miss Margaret
1. Stewart, today was held by police
for questioning in connection with
the young woman's death.
He has admitted they were driving
together the night before her body
was found, badly disfigured, near
Beverly, Mass.
However, he said he left her at
Beverly, after the motor car trip
and had not seen her since.
Police said Miss Stewart-instruc-
tor in a school for the deaf at Bev-
erly-had been friendly with the
young, man for some time.
Questioning has been goinG on
since early yesterday, when the
man was arrested, but he has kept
to the same story throughout, the
police said.
They examined the motor car for
possible traces of blood, but could
find none. The man said the motor
car had not been cleaned recently,
but police believed this incorrect.
Miss Stewart was found dead
alongside main road near Beverly
on March 80. Her body was bat
tered Subsequent reports told of
a motor car having been seen in the
vicinity shortly before the body was
discovered.
A search had been made for this
car, but no public description of it
was given out.

president of Chimes. "They want
to attend all the dances and have
to invite boys who very 'Cften

81 think, too, that there are
more socially inclined girls at
Butler than men, which makes the
organized dance expense heavier
for the girls"
But Butler boys are a bit too
old-fashioned for allowing the
girls to even go fifty-fifty on

dates, do declare that the woman

For instance, if they get in

must invite the boy to a sorority

there's the matter of dress and
accessories. One suit will carry

dress a season for a coed?

An Opportunity to Reward a Friend

Most everyone will agree that the mild-eyed and
inoffensive little guinea pig is cast in most un-
fortunate role in modern society
BY some strange dispensation of nature the Struc-
tre of this modest and unassuming little beast bears
certain striking resemblance to that of human
beings AS result the guinea pig provides a sort
of proving ground for tests of theories about human
diseases.
For offense his part, the gentle and friendly
little guinea pig is continually being inoculaed with
deadly germs to see if any possible light on human
ailments can be obtained. He is starved, stuffed
punched and pulled-all as a sacrifice to the ad-
vancement of knowledge about human ailments.
So far as has been recorded never a complaint,
never a word of reproach against humankind has
been uttered by the guinea pig for the treatment
has received.
He has made his great sacrifice bravely and
calmly.
And now, through accident rather than spirit
OF gratitude to the guinea pig, a Cornell professor
has found that the little animal takes a fancy to
alcohol and that it agrees with him admirably.
At last we have chance to repay the guinea pig
in some slight measure for his sacrifice in our be-
half by affording him alcoholic pleasure.
search of the Federal prohibition law dis
closes provision against the use of alcoholic slim

The Government has a large supply of contra

pirate few good drinks for guinea pig population
Of the country.
That it seems, would be one gracious and fitting
recognition we might make Of the guinea pigs great
sacrifices in behalf.

The progressive Republicans of Wisconsin, in IN
dorsing Senator George W. Norris for the presidency
nav that real statesman tribute he richly merits.
"For a quarter Of century in the House and
Senate George w. Norris has fought the good Tight
and kept the faith with the common people, the
progressive unprivileged masses of America" they
say To-day he is the leader of the progressive Re
publican group in the United States Senate :.
During twenty-five years Of public service he has
demonstrated that party Bosses their corporate mas
ters and all their lobbies at the national capital
cannot deceive him, or intimidate him, or stop him
in his patriotic service for the common good"
The progressives Of Wisconsin well know that
Senator Norris cannot be elected President Norris
himself knows it.
Their support results from the fact that he
fought side by side with the late Robert M La
Toilette for the humane and enlightened principles
for which La Toilette stood. The Wisconsin progress
sves still constant in their advocacy of these prin-
cpes turn to Norris as the man best fitted to carry
them forward.
The influence of Norris and his group cannot be
otherwise than beneficial when the Republicans gather
next June to draw their platform and select can
didate for President.
