The medicine man was Peter Jones'
son of a Welsh father and an Indian

Canada. His fame spread and he was

artists and became the type figure OF
the red man in British art.
King William the Fourth was so i'm

a special decoration for him. The
medicine man had always been
staunch friend of the English and had
done much to persuade his fellow
tribesmen to accept British rule. Then
Peter returned to Canada, was con-

Finland Going Wet?
(NeW York World.)

The Government of Finland has appointed Wlckersham committee. Its group of experts is to investigate the conditions created by Prohibition and suggest changes in the law Public opinion is shifting so strongly against the dry law that it's repeal is confidently predicted.
 The Finnish liquor law went into effect June l, l9l9 It bans the sale of all liquors containing more than two per cent of alcohol. Under it pre- clsely the same evils have developed that the Vol stead Act has brought in it's train here Enforce ment Is impossible Rum Row and the speakeases are in constant evidence. Home brewing and dis tilling common.
 The Swedish element, very numerous in Finland look across the border and see men of their own race dwelling under a system of restricted sale of alcoholic liquors which to have been working satisfactorily since 1914, and which followed the Gothenburg system, dating from 1855 Both the present Bratt system and the Gothenburg system In sweden have featured the elimination of the ele- ment of private gain beyond fixed percentage of profit allowed to the distributing companies No na ton has had longer or on the whole more satisfactory experience with laws framed to decrease drunkenness than Sweden, the Fnlanders have near neighbours chance to observe Advocacy of the adoption of the Brat system or something along similar lines has naturally gained strength in Fin land as doubt of the possibility of enforcing Pro- hibition has become confirmed.

Vitamins Are Necessary.
(New York Herald -Tribune)


 At the suggestion of the Womens Division of the Presidents Emergency Committee for Employ ment, the Home Economics Bureau of the Depart ment of Agriculture is offering a weekly food guide for the benefit of the many housewives who are faced with the problem of keeping house on de- pleted budget. It is of course comparatively easy given comfortably filled purse and an unlimited supply Of produce to choose from, to feed a family satisfactorily
 But when the purse grows flat and drought or ot1er disaster has cut down the supply of food products the matter does not take care of itself Haphazard buying does not result so happily when baslc foods are scarce or expensive and the unin- formed housekeeper is likely to fall into the habit of buying the cheapest foods available without con- sideraton of their health properties This is espe- cially true in rural communities where the garden and the have been the chief source of the table supply. When these have failed and unem- poyment has cut down the family income Knowledge of what to buy in the market of village or town in order to give both child and adult the proteins, caories, vitamins and minerals that the chemistry of the body demands becomes more im- portant Important not only for the maintenance of the general health of each member of the family but for the prevention of what are known as detry deficiency diseases, such as rickets, scurvy and pellagra.
 Setting standard from which to work, the bureau points out that for every meal there should be milk for the children and bread for all the fam ny; every day there should be cereal which should include at least third of the whole grain product potatoes green yellow vegetable and fruit for all, with tomatoes or oranges for the children; two to four times week everybody should have tomatoes, dried beans, peas peanuts lean fresh meat fish or poultry, cheese, and eggs at least for the children These foods contain the required elements for nourishment, growth and health pro- lection, and for the most part are staples the prices of which do not fluctuate greatly throughout the country. Meat. of course, is the most ex- penslve item, but as the bureau points out cheap cuts contain just as much protein the expensive cuts and may he made just palatable with care ful cooking. Canned and dried fish suggested as alternatives where fresh fish is too expensive or unobtainable.
 Interested housewives are invited to write to the bureau for the menus and recipes for the low cost but attractive meals that have been worked out Professional workers and community groups who are aiding needy families homeless persons are also invited to call on the bureau for aid in select ing and shopping around for the most economical health producing foods required in their particular localities.

REAPPOINTMENT IS DESERVED.

In the reappontment of Albert White to be United States Marshal of the First Division, the Administration took the step that close observers oI the political situation here had expected There are many reasons, all of them valid, why the present encumbent of that office should be retained There are few and none of them controlling, to the contrary
 If there has been any charge that Marshal White has not conducted his office with efficiency, it has escaped public notice He has made Splen- did record for law enforcement in the almost five years he has filled the position. And he has been able to do so with little inconvenience to the gen. eral public There has been hint of scandal about his administration True he has had opposi- ton which has hesitated to criticise him to the Department of Justice but apparently it was based upon political differences rather than upon any official delinquencies lack of efficiency
 There are two prime requisites in filling such offices as this-efficiency as shown by the record where reappontment is at stake, and political loyal ty. It has been Marshal Whites loyalty to the Administration outstanding during his entire tenure, that probably caused much if in fact not all, of the complaints lodged against him in Washington He has worked for the Administration in and out of season, not only in the Territory but in several Western States. At considerable personal expense he took part in two campaigns in Idaho and else where working for friends of the Hoover Admin istration nominees of the Republican Party. This not pleasing to some of the anti-Adminstration Republicans in Alaska who would be delighted to get rid of him and bring about the appointment of some less outspoken Republican who would fit in with their plans more readily than Marshal White has done.
 Their efforts in this direction were well known. The Department of Justice and the President were well advised in giving them little heed and the Senate acted wisely confirming with so little delay the Presidents nomination.

HEFLIN'S TURN TO BE 'HEFLED."

Not to every has it come that in the coin he has paid to others many occasions, to himself is payment in the day of his need. Something of this nature has happened to Senator J. Thomas Hefn, whose long distance encounters with the Pope of Rome" long ago ceased to be amusing and merely became ridiculous to all a limited few who retain allegiance to the empty shell of Ku Kluxism. The Alabama Senator soundly trounced in the election last November Alabama voters giving his Democratic opponent, John H. Bankhead an overwhelming majority. few days ago. the Alabama demagogue made known his in- tention of filing a contest against MT. Bankhead whose election, he asserted based upon whole sale fraud and vote stealing.
 The House of Representatives of Alabama then in session. took official note of Heflins accusations and proceeded to "hefle" some on it's own &C., count resolution passed by that body by vote of 9l to 3, expresses the State soons' opinion in language as fervid that used by Hefin himself when really wrought up by the menace of Ro- manism. Declaring that the said "J. Thomas Heflin has during the greater part of his tenure made Alabama the laughing stock of the Union by his bgotry, lack of religious tolerance and lack of the many courteses expected between one gentleman and another, it proclaimed further, We wish the world to know we resent the implications that the sovereign citizens of the State of Alabama were not fair or honest in the conduct of elections where we ourselves and friends are so vitay affected
 Hefin was so badly beaten that before Alabama's vote was half counted last November newspapers out of the State quit tallyng the returns and only waited for the final report to record the size ot MT. Bankhead's majority. The Democratic Party oi Alabama redeemed itself last summer when it ruled Heflin out of its ranks And Alabama voters made amends for former mistakes when they set the sea of their approval on the partys decision by re. Jecting Heflin at the polls in the general election There is however, no occasion for any amazemen over this latest display of poor sportsmanship or his part since there never anything in his official career to indicate he was even slightly ac. quainted with the meaning of sportsmanship
