who has come here to be rid Of 1t,

The great man put his hand on the
boys shoulder, saying; your talk is
like a breath from the beloved fen
lands. One knows what to expect
from a well-bred Englishman You

As African Youngster
Climaxed Bible Story

The wit and wisdom Of the Ovim-
bundu people, one of the many tribes
that make up the Bantu race, is well
known In Africa.
Umbundu proverbs-Umbundu be-
Ing the speech Of the ovimbundus-
and the replies Of ovimbund1 chill
dren, especially in Bible classes
taught by missionaries, says the Bos-
ton Post, show conclusively that the
native African has a potential intel
lect not to be sneezed at, and proves
also that children are children the
world over.
Results Of recent Bible examina-
ton among group Of children threw
astounding light upon Biblical his
tory. One small boy finished a dra-
matte recital Of the story Of David
and Goliath (the native African is q
born actor). with the rather startling
climax which, translated literally,
was:
And the giant said to David, Go
away, little boy, like the looks Of
your face and don't want to spoil
it,"

God-fearing people are growing up

see you marry and become flesh of our

submit to beguilements far too COM
mon in the world behind us. A man

Frankfor. Long Great City

Since the great trade routes of the
Middle ages, Frankfort-on-the-Ma Main
has played one of the most important
parts in the commercial activities Of
all Europe, and for many years was
the undisputed mistress of the interna-
tional money market However, her
simplicity and quiet charm have not
been affected by her eminent position
in international affairs. She reflects
her ancient walls and towers in the
clear waters of the Main with mod
est dignity becoming a beloved mon
arch. 1t is no wonder she beguiled
and endeared herself so keenly to the
heart Of Goethe, her native son, who
was inspired to write his famous opera
Faust" in the first part of which old
Frankfort breathes in almost every
verse.

Professors Crawl, Growl

Called the strangest club in the
world, the RED Lion club" recently
held its annual dinner at Bristol, Eng
land. Its members are professors, and
the king Lion" who presided. was
tremendously addressed as "Your
Majesty" by the other "lions" and
'cubs." At supper they sedately
quaffed strong old English ale, and
the marrow bone. The red lions of
the club are the senior scientists, and
the cubs are new members, who were
made on admission to "wag their
tails" and go through ritual of mi.
tiation. There were also two jackals,
and when the king lion gave an order
they had to growl ominously. Profes-
sors even went down on all tours on
the carpet in their conscientious effort
to look Iionlike.

Keen Up Old Custom

1t is significant that, although In the
country, owing no doubt to stress of
circumstances, many old customs have
died out, in London ceremonies dis
family Connected with them still linger.
For instance, farmers once gave their
laborers the traditional "Plow Monday
Supper to celebrate the beginning of

1t would be hard to find a farm
where the custom is still kept up, but
the lord mayor keeps the festival by
giving a Plow Monday dinner to all

ONE CURRENCY
FOR U. S. And
CANADA URGED
Bill in Congress Would
Give Dominion Seat on
Federal Reserve Board.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press Stafr Correspondent

Copyright. 1881. BY United PressD
WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-One
great banking system north Of the
Rio Grande is the idea behind his
bill proposing to put Canadian
member on the federal reserve
board, Senator Hamilton F. Kean
(Rep., N. j., disclosed today In
statement to the United Press.
He visualizeS coordination of
Canadian banks in the federal re-
serve system and establishment of
common currency to protect trade
between the United States and her
northern neighbor.
The bills bare provisions Sug-
geSted only the Canadian member
ship on the board and negotiation
of a treaty with Canada TO stabi-
lie the deprecated Canadian dol
lar. It's greater ramifications we're
made known in telegram Kean
sent the United Press.
Canadian Dollar Falls
"All along the border our citi-
zenS and their citizens have been
accustomed to receive Canadian
dollar as the equivalent of an A1neri-
can dollar" Kean'S telegram stated.
Suddenly exchange has affected
the Canadian dollar so that it is
selling for 80 cents as compared
with the American dollar.
when merchant in either
country sells a bill of goods to a
merchant in the other country, if it
is payable in American dollars, what
is the Canadian going to have to
pay in his dollars for American
dollars?
"If it is payable in Canadian dol
lars, what is the merchant in the
United States going to receive for
his goods, and is the rise and the
fall in exchange going to make him
demand an excessive profit or is it
going to cause him a loss?
"The Canadian government elec-
trio light companies, railroads and
other agencies have f1oated large
amounts of bonds which are held in
the United States. These bonds are
payable in gold dollars of the pres
ent rate of weight and fineness.
One Currency Urged
At the moment, Canada would
have to pay $1.20 for each of these
bonds. Undoubtedly. Canada will
come into his market to borrow ad-
ditional money to develop her coun-
try. IF exchange continues as it is
now she would receive 80 cents for
each dollar she borrowed.
With the consent of Canada and
by treaty with the United States,
her banks could be admitted as
members of the Federal Reserve
bank and the currency issued by
the Federal Reserve bank could be
used by Canada as well as by the
United States.
'ThiS would make one banking
system north of the Rio Grand
river, and in my opinion would be
an aid to Canada and also to the
United States
The senate foreign relations
committee will consider the bill
soon after the, holidays Questions
as to its constitutionality are being
raised by some senators.

PARTNER JOLT
CULBERTSONS
Ex-NavaI Officer Plays Cool
Game to Trim Lead
$40 Points.
BY H. ALLEN SMITH
United Press STAN Correspondent

NEW YORK, Dec. S0.-A nice,
amiable, triple-chinned southern
gentleman who used to be COM
mander in the navy, and who reck-
ons maybe all this ballyhoo is not
diong the game much good, settled
himself into plush -bottomed chair
Tuesday night and added homely
touch to the hitherto flanboyant
Culbertson-Lenz contract bridge
duel.
He Is Winfield Liggett Jr., and
he's almost as broad as he is long.
He has thick, gray hair, beetling
black eyebrows, a placid counte-
nance and sonorous, lazy southern
drawl.
He succeeded Oswald Jacoby and
promptly proved himself the coolest
card player yet to sit in the con-
test. He and Lenz managed to clip
$40 points off the lead built up by
Ely Culbertson land his various
partners. The Culbertson lead now
is 1920 points.
JacOby "Out for Good"
Jacoby withdrew from the match
on the previous evening because
Lenz had criticised his psychic bid
ding. Jacoby showed up for a bit
Tuesday night, studied a few hands,
announced that he will not, under
any circumstances, return to the
match, then went home to read a
book.
Lenz and his rotund partner
seemed to work well In double
harness. Their bidding was ex-
tremely conservative and they
suffered only three sets as against
Mr.. and Mrs. Culbertson's ten. They
fulfilled eighteen contracts to fifteen
for the Culbertsons.
Culbertson said that he and his
wife were ''crucified on the cross of
distribution" He said that Lenz
and Liggett played mice, steady,
old-f shioned papa-and-mama
game"
Liggett, when the session was
over, submitted to a brief inter-
view.
mo Test of System"
WELL" he drawled, we just sat
down and sort of played. a pleasant
game. Everything went off normal.
AS to the value or significance of
this match, think all the ballyhoo
is hurting the game.
Il like to play bridge with Sidney
and like to play against these
Culbertsons, so just figured maybe
I'd have some fun out Of it. Any
body who thinks this is test of
systems is /. well, just silly
Liggett played nine hands and
went set on one. He was doubled
on a f1ve-club bid and cracked
through with a grand slam out of
1t. He was doubled again at i've
hearts and made it. He made only
two overtricks in the nine hands.
