stricken farmers unable to obtain local

Party lines are widely crossed in q
number of the elections this year. Prob
ably no more 80 than in Nebraska, where
Senator George w. Norris, Repuoiican,
Is opposed by former Senator Gilbert
M. Hitchcock, Democrat. The latter Is
supported by q raft OF regular" Re-
publicans who hate Mr.. Norris and all
his works. On the other hand, many
Democrats are cleaving to Norris be-
cause they have been used to voting for
this progressive leader of the Senate,
and because they are grateful for his
having come out for Al Smith la the
presidential race OF 1928. While Nor
ris Is given the edge In this race, the
fieht has really become severe. and 1t Is
not beyond the bounds of possibility
that Hitchcock may win. II he did, 1t
is likely that the Republican admins
tration would be able to bear up under
this loss Of q Republican seat in the
Senate with considerable equanimity.
No Democrat has been more antago-
nistic TO the administration in the pres
ent Congress than has Senator Norris.
Out Of the campaign will emerge a
new member OF the Senate who may
go far politically, Dwight w. Morrow,
the Republican candidate in New Jer-
sey, whose election is regarded as GER
tain. Mr.. Morrow has been an i'm
portant factor in the advance Of the
anti-prohibition cause, having declared
himself in favor Of repeal OF the eight
zenith amendment.
Some OF the most prominent figures
In the old Senate are coming through
the election without much difiiculty, II
any. among them Senator Joe Robinson
OF Arkansas, Democratic leader Of the
Senate and O probabale contender for
the Democratic presidential nomination

 Children usually begin to take piano lessons at the age of seven. AL this time, N hen the average child has not yet even learned to read with ease. he is required 10 attempt a feat Of mental and phys ical o-ordination as complex as anything he will ever be asked to do.
