want to help but not to pay excessive
prices for farm products in the end.
Great pressure is exerted on con-
gressional chieftains in an effort to
obtain long recess, for the senate and
house while the senate finance COM
mittee drafts another tariff bill. The
rank and file of congress would like to
wipe clean the legislative slate before
July 1 to permit adjournment. The
leaders are somewhat gloomy in their
predictions as to the prospects for
recess. Unless the senate changes
its tactics, the tariff bill when it is
reported from the committee is sched-
uled for a prolonged debate. Indi-
vidual senators have it in their power
TO make drastic revisions in the tariff
through system of trading, which
is not permitted in the house.
With hearings on the so-called
Couzens communications bill under
way, the public utility groups are
girding themselves for a bitter battle
against Federal control of their in
tenn of government regulation the util-
ity companies may be forced to con-
| trive ways and means of divesting
themselves of their Interstate char
acter. The super-power system of
transmitting electrical energy has de-
veloped enormously within recent
| years so that the proposed federal reg
ulation offers a knotty problem in

Considering the fact that great

easy matter to confine power trans

Aside from the question of power an
other vital factor in the proposed
regulation of utilities by the federal

gigantic holding companies now so
situated that they avoid state control

1.-TWO Minute Talks"
BY
MISS AUBYN CHINN

Now is the time when school picnics
are being planned by students and
teachers, and the call of lovely spring
weather tempts the family to have
picnic suppers out-of-doors. The menu
is of considerable Importance, for the
food should be not only appetizing in
appearance and satisfying to eat, but
should require the minimum of time
and thought for preparation.
Picnic menus are not always bal
anced menus. There may be lack of
fresh, green food or too many rich
foods and sweets. Instead of prepar-

HINCKLEY PHYSICIAN IN SPILL

DR.. c. G. Kelsey had very narrow
escape from death Tuesday of last
week when his car overturned IS
miles east of Hinckley. While trav-
cling at a fair rate of speed, the
wheels of the open Ford, in which he
was riding, became cramped in some
loose sand and caused it to get out of
control, with the result that it landed
in the ditch bottom side up. The
doctor crawled out with no injuries,
but a dog which was in the car, was
drowned in the water in the ditch.
Outside of few bent rods, the car
suffered no damages.

some Of them. especially salads, may
be brought and mixed just before
serving. In the case of the school
picnic, this is very good plan. for
several students can bring the differ
ent vegetables or fruits and dressing
to make up the salad. A chopped
green salad or fruit salad, mixed with
mayonnaise, and served on crisp let

menu.
If the picnic supper is to replace
the heavy meal of the day at home,
main dish such as Eggs au Gratin
may be brought steaming hot from

Lemonade, an old favorite, with
other fruit juices such as orange and

it also acts as a balancer of the diet.

I'm going to play even for Bangs.
There were less than dozen 9TH
ers in Brill's store when the Three
Bar men crowded through the door.
Five men sat at one of the tables In
the big room and INDUCED in casual
game of stud Harper and Lang were
among them. Two of them Harris
knew as men named Hopkins and
Wade. The fifth was unknown to him.
The albino's eyes met Harris stead
lily as he entered at the head of the
Three Bar men.
The news that the Three Bar had
turned into squatter outfit had been
widely noised abroad. From behind
the bar Brill covertly studied the
man who was responsible for this
change. Four men from the Half
moon D stood grouped at one end of
the room. They split up and mingled
among the others. Brill moved up ana
down behind the bar, polishing 1t with
a towel. One after another he drew
each of the men from the Half-mOOn
D into conversation with the Three
Bar foreman to determine whether or
not they resented his move. There
was no evidence of it in their speech.
The men from the two outfits min
gled as unrestrainedly as before and
at last Harris smiled across at Brill
"Well, have you sized it all up?" he
asked.
The storekeeper looked up quickly,
knowing that Harris had read his pur-
pose In drawing him into converse
ton with the four men. He polished
the bar thOughtfully. then nodded.
"a man in my business has to keep
posted-bOth ways" he said. Il just
wanted to make sure. Five years ago

Bar like snake-feeling was that

should they? They got nothing al

they'll be pouring in asking for jobs
just because they figure therell be
some excitement on tap"
The men from the HalfmO0n D
were due back and inside of an hour
they rode off, leaving only Harris
men and the five card-players in the
place. Harris walked over to the Ia
BILE and the Three Bar men shifted
positions, slouching sidewise at the
bar or leaning with their backs to It

as the foreman spoke to the albino.
