Once upon a time there lived in a
large village, which stood upon the
banks of wide river, an adventur-
Gus youth, who would cleric be.
Not only so, he was so bold that he
presumed to take his 'spen in hand"
quite often twas a pencil, for
typewriter he'd he none--to indite his
thoughts, or what he presumed were
houghts-others, forsooth, had quite
different opinion-for the erudi-
ton, but, alas, it often proved the
irritation, of sundry inhabitants of
that mighty village. Now, be it
known that cleric's job is in itself
pretty big adventure, but this lusty
juventus would also WELD the weap-
on yclept ''mightier than the sword"
Now there dwelt in that mighty
village worthy thane, of small sta
ture but great holiness. His illus
trious ancestor, whose name he bore,
and who made his famous hegira in
622, would doff his turban to his
brave descendant patronymic, how

intrepid editor, to contribute a col

consented so to do. He will brush

rotary Wilbur of the Interior Depart
ment, Secretary Hyde has made more
personal appearances before the micro
phone than any other member of the
Hoover cabinet A few days after
taking Office. he delivered his first radio
message to the farmers.
Recently he made three radio talks
in five days, speaking in widely sepa-
rated sections of the country, Atlanta,
Jackson, Mich, and Kansas City. He
inaugurated the new midday radio serv-
ice of his department, known as the
national farm and home hour" 1t is
