BRAND

AS is true with most great men, it will
n probably take years for the world 30
find out just how great was Aristide
BRAND, French statesman who died yes
terday after a noted and honorable ca
reer
Brands greatness was not concerned
alone with his beloved France for which
he labored so long and so hard. He rec
ognized as above and beyond the service
one can do for ones country, the greater
good that can be done for all mankind.
Known as the "Apostle of Peace.
BRAND learned of the value of peace by
first becoming familiar with the horrors
of war. He had his knowledge at first
hand, for he it was who obtained the
parliamentary order in 1914 which
caused Joffre to halt his retreat toward
Paris and fight the battle of the Marne
thereby preventing the Germans from ac-
complishing their intention of a short
and quick victory.
Throughout the course of the war there
was none more staunch than he in the
determination that Prussian militarism
should be crushed.
Victory once achieved, BRAND could
understand better than many of his coun-
trymen, Just how foolish is war and at
what cost to his country victory had
come.
While others did all they could to
maintain the old hatreds which had
turned Europe into seething cauldron,
he took up the task of world peace. He
did not hesitate to recognize those of
similar mind even when he found them
among his late enemies, and his friend
ship with Gustave Stresemann, the Ger
man statesman, had a strong foundation
in their mutual efforts to build a struc-
ture that would prevent a recurrence
of the 1914-18 horror.
BRAND worked for the evacuation of
the Rhineland and the establishment of
a friendship with Germany that would
make it unnecessary for France to main
tain the huge army which she felt was
essential to her safety. With Secretary
Kellogg he formulated the Kellogg
BRAND treaty by which nations renounc-
ed war as an instrument of national pol
icy, and he proposed the United States
of Europe as means of peace among
nations of the old world.
His efforts may seem fantastic now
and scoffers will call them impractical
ideals, but BRAND undoubtedly was
ahead of his time. The day may come
when the world will recognize him as
the founder of that peace which it seeks
and which is bound to come as man de-
velops his reason and submerges his
passions.

WASHINGTON. March 8.-Mil-
lions of people smoke but it is
doubtful if any two do it exactly
alike. Observe a group of public
men, for instance. gathered around
a dinner table and note the diff
ference in the technique.
President Hoover, to begin at the
top, brings his own cigars. He
wastes no time fu1nbling the long
perfecto, but gets it into his mouth
Immediately. Although there may
be a regiment OF walters handy,
he lights it himself. He puffs hard
and fast, gets a hot light going
and snaps out the match with 4
quick motion Of his arm-chiefly
the wrist-without lowering it from
the level Of his cigar. Then he
settles back and smokes slowly,
holding the cigar much OF the time
in his right hand.

Copyright 1928, BY Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate

among others, a very long branch
with bunch of fuzzy pussy will
low buds on the end. The buds
were quite large and were covered
with a soft fuzz, very ticklish
Looking at this long branch, Uncle
Wiggily suddenly had a new idea
"Ill make tickle ickle," he
whispered. Perhaps with that ]
can make the Bob Cat run away
SO I may come down safely and
not be nibbled. That's what II
do! III make a tickle ickle!"
No sooner said than done. Really
Uncle Wiggily did not have to
make a tickle ickle for he had one
already. 1t was the long branch he
held in his paw-the long branch
with the bunch of ticklish pussy
willow budc on the end
I'll try this on the Bob Cat!"
chuckled the rabbit.
Carefully reaching down the
branch, Uncle Wiggily touched the
nose of the Bob Cat
"Gurrl Ker choo!" sneezed the
Bad Chap, shaking his head.
Something tickled mel' But he
didn't see what it was, for Uncle
Wiggily quickly pulled the branch
up out of sight.
Waiting a moment, Mr.. Long
ears saw the waiting Bob Cat close
his eyes. Then, again, the bunny
used his tickle ickle and the Bob
Cat mewed and howled:
"Oh, I'm tickled again Gurr!
Ker choo! Ker choo"
Before the Bad Chap could see
what tickled him, Uncle Wiggily
pulled the branch up out of sight
Then when the Bob Cat closed his
eyes again, once more the rabbit
used the tickle ickle.
"Zowiel This is too much!"
howled the Bad Chap. "Oh, my
itchie nose! How tickled I ami!
Gurrl Ker chool Ker chool Ker
choow and he sneezed so hard that
he turned a SomerSault and part
of a peppersault and was quite
wide awake.
Il guess there's no use waiting
for that rabbit" mewed the Bob
Cat. "He isn't coming back. I'll
go home and catch him some other
time. But I wonder what tickled
me? Ker choo Ker choo! Ker
choo"
Then he ran away and Mr..
Longears climbed down out of the
tree with the pussy willow buds
and everybody was happy.
And if the kitchen sink will lend
the parlor rug an egg beater to
knock out some of its dust, III
tell you next about Uncle Wiggily
and Bunty's jumper.

TOO MANY NUTS

IT takes something like the present New
j Jersey tragedy to let us know just how
many nuts or insane persons there are
floating around outside the institutions
established for the incarceration of the
feeble-minded.
The great majority of us go along
blissfully in the belief that all the insane
persons are safely locked up, and that
those whom we see as we go about our
daily tasks are perfectly sane and sound
members of society.
But the present deuge of letters from
crankS concerning the Lindbergh baby
proves that our belief is a falacly. Peo-
pie who have no more information about
the case than what they have read in
the papers, reveal clues and information
concerning the abduction which only add
to the confusion that such q crime Gre
ates.
Others, whose mentality is far beyond
the warped stage, relieve themselves by
writing in that they have the child and
give fantastic instructions as to what
must be done to obtain the baby'S recov-
cry.
Every criminal case develops such in
stances as this. Recently we had the odd
spectacle of a man cOnfessing to the
FnOenlA QOuDle murder, AFTER the real
murderer had been tried and convicted.
His explanation, when his story was
proved false, was that he wanted the
publicity and sought to be considered a
hero or daredevil, it matters not which.
1t may seem far-fetched to consider
these persons as insane yet it is the most
charitable way of viewing their activities.
1t is impossible to believe that sane per-
sons could be guilty of such depravity.
There is a slang phrase which says
half the world are squirrels and the
other half are nuts The proportion
of squirrels evidently needs to be de-
creased and the proportion of nuts" in
creased.

UNCLE WIGGnLY'S TICKLE
ICKEE

Uncle Wiggily was sitting up in
pussy willow tree where he had
gone to gather some branches to
ornament his bungalow. But just
as the rabbit gentleman was get
ting ready to jump down, with the
little fuzzy tree pussies, the Bob
Cat had come along. ~
Seeing Uncle Wiggily's paw
marks in the snow on the ground,
the Bob Cat knew the rabbit had
been there. But the Bob Cat, be-
ing silly and stupid, never thought
of looking up in the tree, where
Uncle Wiggily was hiding just over
his head
Hes been mere and he will
come back" meWed the Bob Cat
as he lay down beneath the pussy
tree. I'll wait here for him"
And as long as he lies there
waiting for me I dare not come
down." said Uncle Wiggily to him
self as he leaned over, from where
