not deny-and IS such he is subject to food for cartoons, comment and whatnot. The bishop says he is sorry that remarks made about him ir Congress are privileged, shutting of action in that directiol.
 It is a matter of record that, rather than having been damaged by such publications which have criticised him. he was given a vote of confidence at the Dallas conven- ton of his church and won a hand some victory before Senator Cara ways committee. His reputation as a winning clergyman seems to be higher, on the face Of the facts. than ever before. So far he has very little 10 be angry about.

BISHOP CANNON AND THE

Bishop Cannon probably IS sincere enough in his desire 10 proceed against such p45l.c4tlons which he and his lawyers believe have trans gressed .he bounds Of decency and liberty in abusing" the prelate. If hrs warning results in greater care by offending publications that may be one Of the objects sought
 The bishop, however, though he has non decided victory before the lobby committee. must realize that through tls activities he has become q public man in the widest meaning Of the term and Is subject to the same Iberality of criticism as other public men.
 True, he has not run for public Of fee; but he has been actively en- gagged in politics in Virginia and pos sibly elsewhere and thus has put himself open to the same considera- ton as IS given to other men active in politics, even when they them selves do not run for office.
 No publication, however, is per nItted to take advantage of q citi- zen, whether in private life or in politics. to the extent Of lavishing upon him libelous abuse. and where this has been done TO doubt the bishop has a case. Personally We have not come across any such .'hbelous statements, although we have read plenty of comment re- garding the bishops activities which might not have pleased him.
 Before the lobby committee re- gently the bishop made certain un- complimentary remarks regarding the press, but this institution is not inclined to be vexed about such re- marks. They have been made before and have never yet stopped the f presses from operating
 AS before stated. the bishop through his activities outside his church has become a public man something that perhaps he would

 A financial writer remarked the other day that the old rule which said stocks really were not worth more than certain ratio based on earnings and surplus still held good. and that on such a basis there were many that were still far too hign.

ON AICH FOR BACTERIA

Warning by Superlntendent of Health Dumont that milk samples recently tested show too high T count Of bacteria and that this condition must be recr,fied. calls attention once again 10 the fact that the city possesses a stringent health regura- ton regarding milk which is even more effective ln the protection Of the pubic than the general milk statute Of the state.
 According 10 the la7s passed by the 1929 legislature cities have tho right 10 make stringent regulations. even should they be more so than the state law. The latter. tor In- stance. permits the selling Of milk containing an average of more than one million bacteria per cubic cenr- meter; which Tn the estimation Of all health authorities IS aplenty, even though the bacteria count Is rot as derastatinEly terrific as the words Of the law imply to the un- initiated. There IS also the common knowledge that milk produced for consumption Tn country towns or districts near the source Of produc- ton invariably IS more fresh when delivered for consumption than is the case ln some Of the cities.
 The local ordinance vas passed prior 70 the enactment Of the 1929 ,a7, and lr IS understood that. f found not in conformity with the recent court decision relating 10 the milk ordinance in Shelby 1t can be re-enactad in toto and thus techni- cally made 10 fit in With the 1923 law This st least IS the opinion Of some lawyers and health authorities
 The 1929 law 1t IS generally known, vas enacted in order to fore stall possible difficulties incident to . the Shelby case. which at that time was vending its way through the low . CT courts. When the recent decision vas finally gwen. with q victory fol the milk interests Tn Shelby the state la@ had been changed to make il possible for cities to maintain their supremacy oyer local milk reguIa- tions, as We understand it.

VALUE OF MARBLE SHOOTING

Marble shooting IS q great game for boys, II IS just as expressing a game for youngsters as golf IS for many 8 zrownup
 What happens in marble shooting Is that the boys learn to appreciate skill and how 10 attain II through practice, and h attaining it they are kept busy enough 10 possess less in- cllnatlon md time for mischief max ing
 Boys will be. ooys," runs the old sau; and sometimes they will be at places where they are doing them selves little f any good, or are mak- ing the acquaIntance Of companions who might influence them for Ill.
 A marble shooter" is most happy where his marbles happen to be lyinz, and his time Is we'll occupied. He isn't ln danger Of being run over by an automobile; he Is giving less trouble 10 his parents; he ls utilizing his energy in the pursuit of q game that awards him with skill and pleasure We have never known Of good marble shooter ~ho ran atoul Of he police Unfortunately there are boys, not marble shootels $, vho have given the police much trouble.
 This pretty well answers the ques- ton: What good is there is marble shooting?" one that possibly is ask cd quite frequently
 Now that ue have answered the question let all those boys nho have become adept at marble shooting. and who hope 10 improve their skill during the summer, play their favor lte game often and better at each trial.

NEED OF THE "IEON EI,I"

The police commissioner in Chi cago did q wise thing in resigning. Be!ng head Of the police department in Chicago Of itself IS no job for an easygoins man; to be head Of the department during a period when outlaws gain sway is particularly trying, ani especially so in view of the claims being made that the po- lice department in the Windy City has been rather defective in it's handling Of the criminal situation.
 The murder of Alfred Lingle. re- porter, has resulted in such q pubic uproar tn Chicago for the punish mcnt of criminals and ganssters that no man bearing the title Of commis- sioner Of police is worth having at the head Of the force f he lacks con- hdence in himself, or for any reason cannot cope with the situation.
 Chicago needs I head Of Its police department rho has an iron hand for discipline. who is fearless in the espousal Of his duty and who under no consideration permits poltica considerations to dictate the methods 10 be pursued.

-O.O.McInfyre

New York, June 1.-The other late afternoon in the glowing splen- dor of a dying sun I visited the canine cemetery at Hartsdale, short motor ride from New York. On a peaceful sweep of velvety lawn there my dog Junior was buried more than seven years ago.
 Many believe sentimentality over the passing of dog is mushy. Maybe 1t is but it is an emotion as natural with some as breathing. At the grave, l recalled how Junior, mortally stricken by a careless motorist, crawled toward me. licked my hand and died. And there was q choke in my throat.
 A command Of mine sent Junior to his death and his lick for forgive ness to me is tinged with that spirit Of forgiveness that sanctifed the crucifxion. Perhaps dogs haven't souls but I like to think that dogs we love and lose are romping in the Elysian fields and cooking ears now and then for familiar voice.
 The bronze at the entrance of Hartsdale burial ground for four footed friends is dedicated to The War Dog. Mans Most Faithful l'riend.' The alert position. first aid kit stropped to back. the bat tered canteen and helmet at the feet tell the tale of unforgotten heroism,
 There are more than 5000 graves dotting the five and half acre lot. which IS planted with flowers and slit with cool gravel paths and slopes so impressively toward the river Mostly dogs are buried there but six horses, a llon cub, several parrots and monkeys are among it's dead
