Frank /. Greene

With the State of Vermont, the whole
Nation bows in grief today over the
passing of its senior United States Sena-
tor, Frank Lester Greene. Washington's
sorrow is of peculiar poignancy, for it
was in the streets of the National Capi-
tai six years ago that he was the inno-
cent victim of one of those I'M
fortunate shooting ARRAYS between
bootleggers and enforcement officers.
From the effects of the stray bullet
wound Senator Greene suffered on that
deplorable occasion he never fully re-
covered, though he continued, practi-
cally till the day of his death, his duties
at the Capitol.
Frank Greene will be best remembered
In Congress as an incorporating sup
in the Spanish-American War with a
Vermont volunteer company, which he
formed, and emerged from the campaign
a colonel of infantry. Greene cherished
the Army and all its works. His proud
est service was on the Military Affairs
Committees of House and Senate, for
he was in the lower branch for six sue
cessive terms before his election to the
Senate in 1922. In 1929, physically in
capacitated as Greene was, though men
tally quite unimpaired, Vermont re-
turned him to the upper house for a
second term, virtually without opposition.
Greene joins the invincible majority
relatively young. He was only sixty
this year. His State and his congress
sional colleagues hoped they would be
vouchsafed many more years of his con-
structive craftsmanship and bonhomie
Frank Greene leaves behind him a
heritage his country will not forget
the example of lifetime of devotion to
the ideals of preparedness, than which
patriotism knows nothing more funda-
mental. A hero in war, Senator Greene
in peace was tower of strength to the
Republic he loved and so effectively
served.

Venezuela-where he was born in

Bolivia look upon Simon Bolivar as
their emancipation from the Spanish
yoke. Although he lived to be but
forty-seven years of age, he accom-
plished prodigious results in remaking
the map of his native continent. A
scion of wealth and family, Bolivar
had barely attained his majority when
he triumphantly led the land of his
birth, Venezuela. in revolutionary COM
bat with Spain. Forthwith neighbor-
ing lands, chatting under the DONNA

captaincy and in turn achieved their
liberty because of it.

the emancipation of his country have
justly entitled him to the illustrious
appellation of the Washington of South

whose ideals and deeds will illumine
for all time the annals Of the pioneer
peoples who created a new world on
this side of the Atlantic.

Christmas for Animals.

Specialized shows from time to time
bring into renewed public interest ami
mails which always have the love and
respect Of mankind. The horse show,
the dog show, the cat show-these for
a little time bring into sharp focus the
animals involved.
At all times, however, these creatures
have their friends who need no public
displays TO make them be good to their
four footed companions. And at this
time of the year, when a specialized
spirit watts its benevolent influence
over humanity, those who love animals
want to do something special for them.
Old horses, therefore. will get meals
to their liking. In thousands Of homes
Fido and Rover will find special It'd
bits upon the Christmas trees for their
particular benefit Tabby and Tom will
discover fat catnip, mice and other
feline fancies.
Yet it is admittedly a dihicult prob

animals. Even the most ardent fancier

World Shares With Belgium
Concern Over Deaths i'm Fog

, Of the aged and inflrm," and predicts
"a remedy that will prevent Repetition"
The st. Louis Globe-Democrat advises:
Medical men have often pointed out
that smoke pals are injurious to health,
and while we do not know Just how
heavily the damp atmosphere Of the
Meuse Valley was laden with smoke, the
experience of the Belgian villages may
give a sensation of uneasinesS to the
inhabitants Of any place darlkened by
smoke. They may be little more fear
ful of the black pals that settle upon
city during the daylight hours. It is
impossible to dispel fog, but its smoke
content can be and should be reduced
for the protection of life and health and
for other reasons"
This "grueSome phenomenon" re-
marks the Charleston CW. Va)
Daily Mail, has left its devastating
effects" but that paper states as to the
American comments. Some persons
have been concerned in this country
about the large amounts of poisonous
combustion material which Is let loose
in the atmosphere owing to operation
OF automobiles and later from airplanes,
as well as from our industrial plants,
but there have been no provahle reasons
to show any such consequence
fogs. gases or disease seems to offer a
parallel, in the Judgment Of the New
York Herald Tribune, which, after dis
clSsing the various theories, indicates
that the most probable long-distance
diagnosis of what happened is that
unique atmospheric conditions held close
to the ground the total domestic and
industrial smoke of the neighborhood,
containing sulphur gases which caused
10 In nd
carbon monoxide which caused the
deaths"
Whatever the cause, the strange af-
fair gives Europe a new sense of the
malign possibilities of gas warfare"
ayers the Springfield CMass) Repub-
lican.
Smoke is an important ingredient in
any fog" states the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, land as this fatal outbreak hap
pens in highly industrialized region
it gives new Importance to the study
of smoke elimination. There are few
places In America that have fogs up to
the London standard of capacity. But
in many industrial centerS smoke is al
lowed to cooperate with a heavy atmos-
phere and produce fogs that are not
so instantly deadly as this Belgian out
break, but nevertheless highly inimical
to health and comfort. Probably the
Belgian tragedy could not be duplicated
in any of our fog and smoke clogged
areas"
The GAINESVILLE Signal concludes: '"The
horror story lies in a compartment Of
literature that will always be popular.
In fiction, in history or in the daily
the story that sets a chill
running up and down the spine is a
story that never fails to be attractive.
But straight horror is not quite enough.
There mast be also an element of mys-
terry, and, even more important, the
mystery must be of q kind that seems
to demand supernatural explanation"

present an excellent opportunity for
every user to show himself up in his
true colorS
The telephone, then, displays its
users in their proper lights, this one as
well bred, this one as ill bred, this as
cultured. this as uncouth. The gentle
man and the boor, the gentlewoman
and female roughneck, all stand out
perfectly well for what they are.
what turns the trick, we believe, is
the fact that only the voice Is present,
as it were. Usage throughout the ages
has made it necessary for almost every
one to put on bit of the dog" as the
expression has It.
Most human beings have their "com-
pany manners" and some are such ex-
pertS In the handling of the same that
they are able to fool any one, even ex-
perts, at recognizing the true qualities
OF their fellow human beings.
OFTEN 1t takes one long time to get
down beneath the veneer of society,
and discover the true gentleman from
the goats. But over the telephone the
thing may be accomplished in few
sentences!
And this happy result will be secured
largely, it may be believed, because
when a man is telephoning he is,
physically and mentally, too, alone
He is alone in booth, perhaps, and
alone mentally because no one else
in the world knows what he is think
ing or saying before he says it.
Thus he deludeS himself into feeling
that he is responsible to no one except
himself.
This himself" in the case of the i'll
bred person, doesn't care whoop what
he says, or how he says it. He Is not
able to picture the voice at the other
end as belonging to another human
being like unto himself. He, mighty
creature, has wants, and unless those
wants are satisfied quicker than light
ming, he becomes peeved. Ask that
vanishing institution, the telephone girl,
she can tell you all about him.
X X x
Happily, the telephone also produces
from its box of magic the many charm
ing qualities of the gentleman and gen.
tlewoman.
Out of the rather ugly contraption-
and we have never even heard the COM
pany claim their instruments to be
beautiful-often steps the sweetest
voice in the world.
We have softly bumped into voices
which would melt icicles, and have come
away feeling that life is a great propo-
and Gods in His world.
It does the heart and soul good to
bump into such voice over the tele-
phone. It Is like landing in soft bed
of flowers on chill February morning,
when the best you expected was slush
and sleet.
If you could instantly have picture
presented of the owner of that voice,
you no doubt would see some one
beautiful in the only way beauty really
amounts to much, after all.
Such fine voice vibrations are not
merely fine voices" or beautiful
voices" but are rather the reflections of
qualities of mind and heart which are
not to be held down to crude measure
ments with ordinary instruments.
For as no one can measure a gentle
man, or give the precise dimensions of
manliness, 80 good breeding over the
telephone is heard but not seen. Like
it's opposite, it is so natural that no one
can mistake it.
