A LITTLE SATURDAY TALK
 Marathon Dancing

A few weeks ago, a negro min ister gave sermon about l2 hours long, and claimed he had made the longest sermon on record. Later another minister broke the record by talking almost twice as long.
 Another test might have been made-to see who could listen longest without falling asleep. Marathon" sermons are new, so far as the contest part goes; but marathon" dances have been held in many places during the past several years. Some cities have barred them because of the feeling that such dancing Is cruel to human beings; but those who seek profit from such dancing have found places to use. Personally 1 have never watched marathon dance, but the other day--quite by chance--l met a man who had taken part in three dances of the kind, and had won prizes. He was a truck -driver, and was moving desk for me. T was enjoying free ride home with ,, him.
 When 1 learned of his dancing.
 
 | Twice he had dance 500 hours at stretch, and once he had danced 1000 hours. Did the dancing have any ill effect on you?" I asked.
 My last dance was a year ago. and 1 have been in a daZe ever sihce," he replied. "The fellows down at the trucking company talk to me, and I'm asleep on my feet and don't know what they're say | ing to me half the time.' "How about your partner?" "She lost weight awful hard. She weighed 135 pounds when shel started out, but when she finished she weighed only 88 pounds" The driver then told me about another girl who had been taking part in marathon dancing.
 "She's crippled now" he said Veins in her legs got all swollen up, and she can't walk. She's beenl doing everything she could to ket| well, but last time I saw her she| was still crippled. | Yes, there are doctors at fh( dance halls who look at you. The just tell you that you're all rig and can keep on going" | Clothing companies give fre| clothes to marathon dancers fo ''advertising purposes" and othe companies give them other ob1ec of real or supposed value. Thu they dance along, bringing patro1 to the dance halls,. but perhaps turing the future Of their lives.

Emanuel Hertz Says Masters
Work Is the 'Hugest Libel
Against Lincoln

New York, Feb. 12.-R-The trials
and tribulations which beset Abraham
Lincoln in life have their counterpart
IN the treatment he has received after
death ct the hands of his biographers.
Presented in the school histories as
q kindly gentleman bowed In grief
at the terrible sacrifices he was forced
10 call upon his countrymen to make,
be has been called in biographies a

Emanuel Hertz, New York author
ity on Lincoln. celebrated the great
emanctpator's 122nd birthday Thurs
day by calling attention to the
strange fatality that seems to be pur-
suing him, 80 far as biographies are
concerned"
Mr.. Hertz owns more than $500
books and documents on the life of
Lincoln-about 1900 more than there
are IN the New York public library
and he has read every one of them,
including the latest, Edgar Lee Mas
ters' iconoclastic work.
Here's what Mr.. Hertz says about
Lincom's principal biographies.
William H. Herndon-"Worn out by
the stress Of the Civil war, he waited
% years, during which time he was
subject to drink and drugs, before
he wrote his story of Lincoln. INTEL
lectually he never reached to Lincoln's
knee. Any conclusions he draws may
be viewed with a great deal of skep-
ticism."
Ward H. Lamon-"A good-natured.
rollocking country lawyer and mar
sinai. Unable to write the biography
himself, he hired Chauncey F. Black,
the son Of jeremiah. Of Buchanan's
cabinet, to write 1t. Black hated Lin
coin; hence, no matter how loyal
Lamon was. the voice was the voice of
Jacob but the hands were the hands
Of Esau."

fragment and written in the decline
OF his mental powers. He listened to

wilderness Of facts about the Civil
war, with q little of Lincoln thrown
IN here and there, with a great many
OF his phases neglected. But it Is the
best to this day."
w. e. Barton-"He was more in
terested IN Lincoln's English forbears,
IN his Virginia relatives. than in his
great adventure-the administration"
MI. Hertz credits Ida M. Tarbell
with "a splendid popular book" and
Carl Sandburg with "by all odds the
best book from every standpoint-but

eminent Offices

Washington, Feb. 12.-B-The
billion-dollar bill making appropria-
tions for independent offices Of the
government, including the veterans
bureau, for the next fiscal year wa
sent to conference with the senate
Thursday by the house.
The bill carries q senate amend
ment to stop payment of disability
compensation to emergency retired
officers drawing salaries of more than
$4,000 annually from the government.
This amendment was assailed on
the floor by Representative Simmons,
Republican, Nebraska, as "discrim-
inatory."
II was opposed to that act and
voted to sustain President Coolidge's
veto," Simmons said, but this senate
amendment discriminates against the
man In the government service as OPP
posed to the man in private service"
Simmons said the amendment also
discriminates between groups Of serv-
Ice men in the government service by
drawing IN arbitrary line at $1,000.
Il think the veterans bureau should
investigate the administration Of this
law" he concluded.
