his mother.
A gold and white color scheme
was used in all decorations. the
white table cloths trimmed with
gold and white favors and place
cards, gold napkins, gold and white
cakes and ice cream.
Between the main and dessert
courses the life history of Mr.. and
Mrs. Schaub previous to the days
of their marriage, and after, was
wildly portrayed in short talks by
Mr.. Schaub and each of the chill
dren. These talks included the
early farm life, the first years of
their married life in Grant county,
Wisconsin, near the town of Lam

mainder of their present life on the
farm at Alden, Iowa, Worthington
and Sank Centre, Mimi, and their
present home at Round Prairie.
True to the reputation of this
family the afternoon was spent en-
joying a program of beautiful mus
ic and readings given by children
and grandchildren. Duets, male
quartet, solos, instrumental num-
bers and readings, both sacred and
secular, were especially we'll rend-
cred. A mock wedding staged by
small grandchildren re-enacted the
wedding ceremony of the parents,
which took place fifty years ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Schaub received a
gold piece as a present from rela-
tives in Wisconsin. They were pre-
scented with a set of book ends a
number of garden ornaments and
a dresser set made by several OF
the grandchildren. A beautiful ra-
dio set was given them by their
children. Many other remembrance
es were sent from distant friends.
These parents enjoy exceptional
health for having spent fifty years
in wedlock and raising family of
nine children. Both personally take
care of the routine duties of their
ACRE dilo kiolliC at lSOuht
Prairie. They enjoyed every feat
ure of the celebration in their hon.
or to the fullest extent and respond
ed with youthful pride to the toasts
made to them.
Those present at the celebration
were: Mr.. and Mrs. Schaub, Miss
and Miss Lydia Schneider,
nieces of Mrs. Schaub, from Lam
caster, Wis, Fred, Clarence, Wes-
ley, Estella, Mildred, Benjamin, Lii

SENATE IS GIVEN
SCHOOL PROGRAM
Five-Year Building Plan In
troduced in Bill by
Capper.
The Board of Education,s second Ave

The Board of Education's second Ave-
year school building program was
brought to the attention of Congress
yesterday, when Chairman Capper OF
the Senate District committee intro
duced a bill to carry 1t into effect. and
had it referred to his committee for
study.
1t is estimated by school officials that
approximately $4,000 600 remains to be
program, and that the additional build
ingS and grounds contemplated under
this new program would aggregate
approximately 100000.
This would make total of 81 900 600
and school authorities point out that if
this amount should be allowed by Con-
gress within a five-year period the
annual allotments would be just about
the same as the average appropriated
annually thus far under the original
program.
1t is understood to be the purpose
of the school heads. If this program is
authorized by Congress, to proceed first
to complete the unmet projects under
the first program, except where 1t
might be found that some item in the
new program has become more urgent
than some proposed building In the
original group.
The Capper bill outlines the detailed
list of buildings and grounds to be
covered by the second program. all Of
which were made public in December,
when the school board approved the
measure.
Senator Capper has been one of the
leading advocates in Congress of ade-
quate school facilities for the children
of Washington, and when he heard
that the school board was preparing a
second f1ve-year program, he wrote to
officials of the board asking that the
draft be submitted to him.

KEyES FACES NEW
TRIAL FOR BRIBERY
Second Charge Looms as
State Nears End of First
Court Action.


LOS ANGELES. February Am
other bribery trial faced former Dis
trict Attorney Asa Keyes today as the
State neared the end of its first criminal
action against the veteran prosecutor.
While closing arguments were being
delivered in the bribery trial of Reyes,
Ed Rosenberg and Ben Getzoff, the
State was assembling evidence for a
bribery conspiracy case against Keyes
and A. /. LaSker.
District Attorney Burton Fits said
this second action would follow i'm
mediately after the present jury had re-
turned verdict.
The new charges involve the alleged
bribery of KeyeS by Lasker In an en-
bezzlement case. Lasker, former head
OF detunct finance corporation, paid
Reyes to dismiss the case, the State
alleges.
In the first action Rosenberg Is &C.
cused of having escaped fraud charges
in the trial of the promoters of the
defunct Julian Petroleum Corporation
by paying Keyes $125 900. Getzof was
alleged to have been the "go-between. !"
lasker was convicted last week on
grand theft charges resulting from the
collapse OF his corporation, and besides
the trial with KeyeS he also faces an
other grand theft action.
An unidentified woman, excitedly ex-
claiming, you are the man who stole
my money" attempted to attack Rosen-
berg as court was adjourned over the
week end.
The woman, apparently hysterical,
screamed and shook her fist at Rosen-
berg as he left the courtroom.
Inc scene occurred as Presiding
Judge E. I. Butler ended the special
session. Defense Attorney Jud Rush
had just begun his closing arguments
for Reyes, following the completion of
the States first closing arguments by
Chief Prosecutor Stewart.
Stewart asked the jury to "forget
keyes' Is years of service to the county
and send him to the penitentiary."

she realized it would boost her trade,
enhance her property values and make
for national stability.
The people of Nicaragua had been
talking about 1.-The canal since the days
of Walker and his nondescript army OF
filibuSterS. and before. The Tennessee
adventurer himself had played a part
in the failure of one of the early at
temptS to construct the canal In 1856.
after he had fought his way to the post
Of commander in-chief of the Nicara-
guam army, he conf1scated unscrupu-
lousy the property and contracts held
by the Pacific & Atlantic Shipway Co..
organized by Cornelius Vanderbilt for
the purpose of digging a canal across
the isthmus. and assumed charge of the
project-without any idea of complet-
ing it.
Numerous other efforts had been made
in subsequent years to revive the under
taking, under private and public Ameri-
can and European auspices. The most
advanced step had been the drawing
up OF treaty in 1918 under which the
United States acquired perpetual rights
to the canal enterprise, with permission
to erect a naval base on the Gulf of
Fonseca, Pacific terminus of the canal
Needed for Defense.
It was impressed upon members of
the mission that a second big ditch"
across Central America was not alone
a growing necessity of commerce, but
much-needed auxiliary to Americas
machinery of National defense. A
mishap to the Panama Canal would
leave no channel of communication be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific fleets
except by way of the Horn. This was
not comforting prospect.
AS an engineer the idea of a second
canal through Central America must
have had a special appeal to the Amer
lean PreSident-elect. Had he had time
he might have succumbed to the en-
gineer's natural inclination to investi-
gate the physical and technical phases
of the problem-which are multitude
nous, but not incapable of solution.
More important, even than the tech
nical problems, were the international
ramifica tions. The San Juan River
forms a boundary between Nicaragua
and Costa Rica, and Costa Rica had
rights that must be respected.
It was expected the visit to Costa
RIGA would give the party at least an
informal insight into that nations at
titudc toward the Nicaraguan Canal
besides affording an opportunity to look
into other interesting questions Affect
ing pan-American relations.
Members Of the mission had not for
gotten that it was Costa Rican who
had asked the League of Nations to
interpret" the Monroe Doctrine some
months before.
Accordingly, it was with unusual in
terest that the goodwill mission looked
forward to the call about to be made
on the prosperous little republic just
north of our canal in Panama.
