N. Y. DELEGATION WILL BE
 SOLID FOR ROOSEVELT

The Brooklyn Eagle says few words about the "boom" for Owen D. Young for the Democratic presiden- tai nominations:
 Mir Owen D. Young, returning from Europe, remains tactfully silent when confronted with a presidential nomination handed to him by Golfers Weekly. He is doubtless grateful for the distinction thus conferred, but he rIs wise in declining to say anything about it. If he has ambitions in the direction of the White House, which we do not believe he has, he knows 1t would be unwise to reveal them so far in advance of the next national convention of the Democratic party, to which he belongs.
 Mir. Young is intellectually equip ped for the presidency, but parties look for nominees among men con- spicuous in political life. His eminent service on the international commis- sion which evolved the reparations plan bearing his. name was not po-, Itical in any sense.

 One of these devices is the electro cardiograph, which shows the wren's heart to beat between 200 and 800 times a second. Another device is the wrenograph," which shows Mrs. Wren to be very restless, leaving her nest numerous times, day and night. A thermo-couple and chart, just like many used in factories, is used to measure the temperature of the heart. This also bobs up and down With the birds restless action.

 CATCHES LIFES FIRST
 WEAK HEART BEAT

CLEVELAND.-Ab birds heart, as It begins. its first timid, hesitant beats in it's cancer inspiration for future i. song, has .hsen3caught by the micro movie. S4msra here.
 The .1nov taken of the embryo, - which is d4ssected from the egg about , one or two days after incubation has . started. The movie producer is Dr. Bradley Nj. Patten, professor of em- oriology, Western Reserve Univer- sity's medical school.
 In lEe micro-movie the embryo is shown floating in the liquid of the s.egg. The embryo, microscopic in size, |. appears on the screen like giant tadpo4e or fish, about to feet long. The heart-a simple, transparent, :, bu.bous tubs occupies large part of the picture.
 At this stage nothing moves but the little bulb. The beating starts be- fore the blood is ready for circulation. The tiny heart seems to be trying out it's strength-it is timid and hesitant; its beating is intermittent and irreg ular. Sometimes the pulsation stops for long intervals, and then renews it's intermittent action.
 All this time, the blood is being formed in the membranes of the egg that surround the embryo. After about 38 hours signal goes out from some unknown source that the heart is ready to begin it's work, and the blood starts flowing.

not to crowd the stems. This enables
them to take up the maximum of
water"
Treatment of this kind helps the
to stay erect and stiff and the
flowers are better able to withstand the
dry atmosphere of most homes. If the
flowers are placed in. fresh water and
allowed to stand in a cool place each
night, the period of freshness will be
materially extended, finds Mr.. Ran
dali. Some will revive after whiting
during the day.
Among the flowers which are diff
cult to cut and arrange without wilt
ing are Heliotropes, Calendulas and
Dahlias. If the stems of such plants
are cut with a sharp knife and the
ends plunged into boiling water for
about one minute, then placed in cold
water, the keeping quality will be
much improved. When doing this,
keep the hands about the blossoms to
protect them from the steam; other
wise they will blacken.

starvation and privation has exhausted
them to a point of helplessness, and
not then until some sympathetic per-

pleas and cajolery induced them to

fate the dependents and descendants
of those Crusaders of 1917-1918 have
become imbued with the spirit of
,never-say-die, the spirit of indepen-
dence and self reliance that charac-
terized their husbands and fathers.
They struggle onward ever hoping
for the turn in the road, disdaining
to ask charity, stubborn in that great

when pride is a folly. Yet with that
pride as a shield to be held before the

Zone of the best solutions is, of
course, to reduce the acreage drastical-
ly next spring and then to grow the
medium staple varieties running from
:fifteen-sixteenth of an inch to one
inch and over" says DR.. R. Y. Win
tiers, director of the North Carolina
Experiment Station, and an authority
on cotton production in the South.
EFF every farmer in a community will
unite and agree on one variety of this
length staple and then prevent any
mixing at the gin, the problem will
be further simplifed."
Mills use thousands of bales of cot
ton in the course of a year and it is
additional expense when they have to
pick and chose their cotton from
hundreds of offerings. The North
Carolina grower is wasting his efforts
trying to produce the low grade short
staples against competition of machin-
cry and low priced labor in other sec
lions. The only way this State will
remain in the cotton game is to grow
the better staples and to standardize
on varieties"
There are several instances in North
Carolina this season where growers
have received a premium On their cot
ton by uniting on a particular variety
of the medium staple length. The cases
Union County and of the Woodleaf
Community in Rowan County are
we'll known, says DR.. Winters. In
Balls Creak community, Catawba
County, the growers united to make

Fresh Cut Flowers
Make Home Attractive

On the freshness of the flowers de-
ponds the beauty of any floral arrange
ment in the home and there are some
simple methods by which the beauty
of the flowers may be prolonged.
"The first thing to is to cut the
stem with a sharp knife" says Glenn
o. Randall, Aoriculturist at State
College. Scissors cruch the tissue and
a dull knife tears it 50 that the stem
does not absorb water readily. This
is true both when the flowers are first
cut and when they are recut after
being received from the florist or
renewed in the house. The cut flowers
should be submerged in water pre-
ferably up to the blossoms and left in
a cool place for a few hours. The con-
tainer should be large enough so as

Since time has been recorded there

READERS REALLY SHOULD OWN THE
 NEWS COLUMNS

Columbia, Mo, May S.-(UP)- News columns do not belong to newspaper editors or owners, but to the readers, and the whole re- sponsibility of the newspaper is to tell it's readers, without fear, favor or prejudice, everything within the range of possibility and human in- genuity. Robert P. Scripps edi- torial director of the Scripps- How ard newspaper, said in ap address before the University of Missouri School of Journalism last night on The Liberal Press.
 The type of man who should edit, report and write for a liberal paper, he said, should be one who favors greater freedom in political, re- ligious and economic matters, and who is tolerant.
 "I do not believe" he said, "there can be any true liberalism, in jour- nalism or out of it, without large measure of tolerance the news paper, however fine the spirit of it's editorial columns, that refuses to re- port adequately the speeches by or about a candidate for office whom it opposed. is simply not functioning as liberal newspaper.
 Scripps quoted a correspondent WHO OeIlne0 llDefdlSnl us not 50 much 8 definite editorial policy, as it is a definite editorial technique, in other words, we have aggressive, progressive policies; we present these policies in 8 liberal nianenr; that is to say with full recognition and appreciation of the right of any man to disagree and take issue with us."
 "Following this thought" Scripps said "it is not so remarkable to find one of the great truly liberal newspapers of this country operated under the direction of man whose editorial page proclaims him citi- zen of conservative-somew would say reactionary - political tendencies. The editorial page of Adolph Ochs' New York Times certainly does not generally support either the meas ures supported. or then theories pro- claimed, by senators like Norris, La Toilette, Borah, Cutting and Costi- gan. Yet when these gentlemen recently met in sort of protest po- litical meeting in Washington, the Times truly and accurately-almost in an outstanding way-reported what the meeting was all about, and what was said at 1t. This Is of course only an isolated example of the usual Times technique. It is the sort of thing that draws to the Times it's readers, even in the most radical groups, although it does not offer them any political leadership"
