Inventions for PLAY

One of the strangest features of
this age is that so many devices
should be introduced and perfected
as play things. The old adage that
necessity is the mother OF inven-
tion," seems to have become OBJ
Solete.
We learned to drive pleasure cars
before the truck came into its own.
Aviation is still in the stunt" stage.
The motion picture continues to
hold our attention as a medium of
amusement. Like radio, all of them
are drifting toward more serious
uses.
Some day, the bulk of our gaso-
line will go to commerce. Some
day, we will fly, not for the mere
sake of getting up in the air but to
reach a definite goal. Some day,
the movie will appeal to us because
Of the accuracy with which it
records the habits and customs Of
past generatios. Some day, the
radio will be employed largely as
a means of communication.

CUTTING OUT CRIME

WYE seem to be adopting the
w English custom of heckling
political speakers, there being more
of it this year than ever before.
It's all right, if the questions
asked are honest ones and if they
are trick questions, the speaker has
the better end of the bargain for
audiences always want to see the
interruption squelched.
Z Il
The best answer ever given in this
world to a heckler was given by
Henry Ward Beecher when he spoke
in great English centers for the
Union during the Civil War.
An Englishman bawled out: "If
you're going to whip the South, why
don't you; you've been at it three
years!"
Quick as a flash Beecher replied:
ut takes a long time because South
erners are Americana If they were
only Englishmen we would have
whipped them long ago"

Editor The Times:


Editor The Times:
One of the chief issues of the
present political campaign is sup
posed to be farm relief, and I ven
ture the statement that not one of
the socalled spellbinders of either
of the two major political parties
knows from first hand inVestiga-
ton or study just what it's all about.
We read and hear a great deal
about the McNary- Haugen bill, the
equalization fee and other forms of
proposed relief for the farmer. To
me the bulk of it appears as SO
much hokum and hooey. And why,
you we'll may ask. The reasons ap-
pear quite simple.
Chief of the reasons, insofar as a
national law is concerned, is the
plain fact that no law could be fair
alike to the general farmer Of New
England, the grain growing farmer
of the Middle West and the fruit
growing farmer of California and
the South. To be a little more con-
ciSe-what would be right and
proper for one section of the coun-
try would by no means benefit
another.
The writer is out among the farm
erS nearly every day, he talks with
them and he has found out that
they are much more wise than most
people imagine. They know pretty
much what they want, they know
thoroughly the difference between
right and wrong, but-and right
here is the greatest of all draw
backs to the average farmer
throughout the land-he's the victim
of tradition and mistrustl
What the farmer needs most is
education and plen-S of it, along
open, broad lines. He must be
taught to forget most of his tradi-
ton, especially those affecting rota-
ton of crops, treatment of soil,
financing his own industry, i'm
provement Of live stock, ETC.
Community cooperation, could it
but be put in working order, would
work wonders, but here is the
stumbling block of nistruSt-moSt
unfortunate, but true.
To one in close touch with the
farmer during the last few weeks

Shyness is overcome through the
early social contacts.
More and more the psychologists
are becoming convinced that the

The relationships, the under

In these schools the child is
trained early as to the Importance
Of eating fresh vegetables, so that
by the time it develops reasoning
power it eats its spinach and its
other vegetables as matter Of
course.
In the same way the necessary
for clean hands, good manners and
low voices is emphasized on the
group.

only for the politician who claims
to know all, see all, and who can

CARNATIONS of a church congregation

reasons for giving Al Smit'' my vote.
