New York, Sept. 15.-Diary of a modern Pepys; Came an amusing note from Frederic Burr Opper, grand old conquistador Of the car toons, and to breakfast with Belle fontaine's pride Howard Acton and amusing him so recalling days we were cubs together he had a lapse Of memory and signed the chit. For a promenade and talked to Jimmy Elliott and saw a man wide ly whispered to have pistoled Ar mold Rothstein but roaming at large, smiling, debonair! To my task but the typewriter stuck and l had a time tinkering with it, treasuring such excuses not to work.
 To dinner on the St. Regis roof and among others saw the Grant land Rices, the Keats Speeds, Re- gina Wallace and Biddle-the one with the minstrel collar. So driving in the magic gold and cool of the park and home reading aloud to my wife from racey life of Balzac.
 It just gave me a start to recall my memory of New York goes clear back to the days when the Grand Concourse was not torn up.
 More than 100 prominent gentle men in New York have overcome stammering in various ways. Once year they hold a dinner at which long and fluent speeches are made. hear once an impeachment is mas tered it never troubles again. Some or the most charming people I know stutter.

 The Hudson River Bridge, the longest single span in the world nearing completion on upper River side, gleams at night with electric warnings for airplanes. You wouldn't think cable stretching could possibly be so exciting but I run up every week for look. Also to see the batch of cute red heads in the little soft drink stand next door.
 One of the road house cabarets along Pelham offers a, splitting diversion, at least for me. A pair of skaters execute dizzy whirls and aeria1s. The male skater calls for volunteers from the diners It is surprising how many respond who are not 'plants"-a little ham" in everybody! He swings them in the air a few moments, suddenly puts them on their feet and skates away. And Leon Erroll in his limpest days never stumbled into such hilarious gutta-percha falls.
 At the same cabaret the dance floor is reached by arched foot bridges spanning a moat. In the moat are flocks of ducks quacking Ike everything and what won't they think up next? It does beat all.

In analysing the foregoing census of religious bodies, one observer begs leave to make the following com- ments
 CD The figures are for actual membership in churches, not total number of adherents Hence the percentages are unduly large for those denominations in which ad- herents are prone to become atfiliat- ed with q church, and unduly small for those denominations in which many adherents do not take out actual church membership. CD The figures were obtained from ministers and other church officials. and in some cases inevita bly, represent mere Guesses. eXa operations, etc. (3) Un- derstanding of membership varies widely in different denominations In some, it includes only adults who contribute to the church; in others all who have been baptized or other wise admitted into the faith, infants or adults: in others, all who attend services.

Wrong Idea
of Ue Is
Disastrous
BY MARTHA LEE

This eternal search for happiness
leads us on some merry wild goose
chases. We have a penchant for
setting our eyes on an object that at
a distance looks like happiness, only
to find when we make the grade
that it is the worst sort Of make
believe.
And very often, on the road, we
pass up the real thing because our
eyes see nothing but our own per-
sonal and private conceptions Of
that thing called love, there's no
telling them apart.
A preccnceived idea of love and
what love should bring ruins many
a marriage. These ideas play heck
with a young wife who finally must
be brought to the realization that all
her married life is not going to be 3
continuous honeymoon. And there
never was a more misleading state
ment than the one about marriage
making two into one. 1t can't be
done.
FaiIings Are Betrayed
There are disillusions to be met
and overcome, whether we like the
idea or not. Existence is not all we
would like to have it. Nor are the
people with whom we must live.
Married folk should understand
this before they take the step. Be-
cause the constant association with
people who have taken on the roles
of husband and wives is bound to
betray failings and weaknesses and
unexpected characteristics that tear
down preconceived ideas Of how
things should be, were things per-
feet.
d. Dear Miss Lee-I am a man In my
twenties. married and soon will be di-
vorced. great barrier arose between my
wife and me which I could not forget,
although I sincerely tried TO put it aside.
Things became so bad finally we parted.
Now most Of the young people we used
to chum with will not have anything to
do with me. I cannot understand it. for
I neither have said nor done anything to
cause them to treat me this way.
Recently I saw a school day sweetheart
Of mine. She still cares for me and
for her. She has been married and di-
vorced and has little boy.
Do YOU think it would be wrong to re-
vive that love we once knew and try to
be happy together or do you think it best
just to be friends and forget the rest.
H. NJ. w.
Do you feel yourself entirely
justified in divorcing your wife?
This barrier you speak of is moth
ing to the mental barrier your
former wife will be in any future
romance you should plan.
o.. Friends Side With Wife
The fact that all your friends
side with your wife looks rather
bad for you. 1t would indicate that
you had been unjust to her in some
way. If you want to revive any ro-
nance, why not start reviving the
romance and love for the woman
you married?
The school girl affair would ripen
of its own accord if it we're sincere.
If you two are going to be in love
you will be, no matter what I say
or what you think. The fact that
you ask if you should TRY" to be
happy together doesn't make the
affair look any too spontaneous. If
it's happiness you want, better set
yourself right with your wife.

Whatever happens to farmers
in this country the companies that
sell them farm machinery abate
no jOt nor little of their profits
in such dealings. A surprising
revelation of these profits, run
ming from 1873 to 233 per cent, OF
two or three companies, lately
was made. The Case Threshing
Machine Company made a profit
in selling farm implements dur
ing a period of six and three
quarter years averaging 1873 per
cent. The Deere Implement Com
pany bettered that record with
! profit even more enormous of
233 per cent during two and
third years. Added to these TAX
ings was the interest and the
dividends paid during the periods
named.
!!llI!I
"These conditions were lately
the subject of comment by IdahO's
Senator, William f. BOrah, who
made the statement that for ey-
cry $1,000 invested on January 1,
1920, in the capital stock of the
International Harvester COmpa-
ny, the dividends paid since then
and the increased value of the
stock on May IL, 1880, would
amount to $1,000, plus interest
on the dividends. An investment
of the same kind in the Case COM
pany in August, 1922, on Ma,
IL, 1880, would come to $3.50,
plus interest on the dividends,
and $1,000 invested in the Deere
company in January, 1927, thru
the same kind of increase. would
amount on May IL, 1929, to S.
$40. The figures were furnished
by the companies themselves.
llllll!
THE moral to be drawn from
this is old. Profits are limited
only by what the traffic will
bear, and the farm machinery
companies would just as soon en-
rich themselves at the expense
Of starving farmers as at the ex-
pense of others more happily sit
uated 1t is plain that in such
an economic situation the farm
ers must find a way to market
their products at least apprOxi-
mating that which is pursued by
the Harvester, Case, Deere and
other vendors of farm impIe-
ments.

market that it is for the benefit

publicans pass high tariff laws"

BROKERS ACCUSED
OF RUSSIA BOCEY

London, Sept. 23.- American
trade authorities in London said
tonight that reports that exporta-
ton of wheat by soviet Russia
was causing a vast lowering of
prices on the Liverpool market
were based on erroneous statist-
les.
A section of the press has done
its utmost to convince the British
people that Russia is running wheat
farmers of Britain, the United
States, Argentina and Australia,
the foreign experts contended.
They said groups of importing
brokers also have been using the
Russian wheat DOGGY" to lower
prices and attempt to break the
Canadian wheat pool and the Unit
ed States farm loan board. The
propaganda concerning the Rus
sian wheat situation has been mis-
stating the correct figures, the
experts said, in reviewing the
present situation.
