81 BRUCE CATION

A LEXANDER STEPHENS, whom
L n jefferson Davis called "the lit
tie pale star from Georgia" was one
of the most interesting, admirable,
and tragic of all the leaders of the
southern confederacy.
He was not enamored Of slavery
but he became its most famous de-
fender.
He opposed secession-but he was
one Of those chiefly responsible for
bringing it about.
AS vice. president of the confed-
eracy, he was heart and soul for
victory-but he opposed President
Davis policies so sharply that he
helped to make victory impossible.
All of this is brought out in Lit
tie Aleck," by E. Ramsay Richard
son. Here is a very fine biography
which should have been called to
your attention earlier, but which,
somewhow, got lost in the press of
books that looked (and WEREN'T
more important.
Stephens weighed ninety pounds
and had unbelievably poor health.
He used to go to congress in a
wheelchair and support himself on
clutches when he rose to speak
but he was one of the greatest ora
tors congress ever knew.
Once he might have become Presi-
dent; later he could have had the
presidency of the confederacy for
the asking.
Always he was fighter, and al
ways he was an extremely influential
statesman.
Mr.. Richardson has written very
interesting book about him, and you
won't want to miss it. It's published
by Bobbs-Merrill, and costs $3.50.

CHAPTER TWENTY

IT was a week after the dinner
Il party that had proven such a
failure. Cherry Phillips, down on
her knees scrubbing the bathroom
=. linoleum, Strengthened up and
dropped the dripping rag back into
the pail.
She surveyed her work, then with
a groan wrung out the mop again
and applied it to the floor.
Therel 1t was done at last.
YEARLY the girl got to her feet. She
lifted the heavy pail to carry 1t
to the kitchen, but as she turned
caught glimpse Of herself in the
mirror
Cherry put down the pail and
studied herself What sight she
wasl She had cleaned the apart
ment from floor to ceiling but it
appeared that all the dust and dirt
she had scrubbed and scraped away
must have chung to herself
The towel pinned about her skirt
I'm place Of an apron was blackened
with CRIME Her printed silk frock
had once been attractive, but she
had worn it for housework until it
was frayed and soiled Another
towel, pinned about her head, con-
cealed her hair except for a few
stray wisps that struggled forth
grotesqucly.
There we're black smudges on her
face and arms and one finger wa
shrouded in bulky bandage. That
~was where Cherry had cut herself
the day before.
You're a disgrace" she told the
image in the mirror. you look like
something the cat dragged in, as
Sarah would say.
"Only no self-respecting cat
ewould have anything to do with you,
because cats keep themselves clean!"
Another time Cherry might have
found her clown-like appearance
amusing She did not smile today;
she was too tired
YEARLY she picked up the scrub
hing pail, carried it to the kitchen,
and emptied it, She saw that the
hands of the dollar alarm clock
painted bright yellow pointed to
after o'clock
Time to be starting supper" she
thought automatically. No matter
how hard she worked cooking or
ironing or mending-no matter
how busy the day there was always
o'clock and the evening meal to be
prepared
She filled a pan with water and
started to peel potatoes. What If
Dan did find her looking such a
sight? She was too tired to think
about her appearance-or to care.
A sharp rap sounded on the door.
"Any one home?" a crisp voice
called Its me-Dixie!"
Cherry reached for towel She
was drying her hands as she drew
the door back
Hello, Dixie" she said. Come

smile faded. Saints above" she
exclaimed in Mortified tone.
what have you been doing to
yourself Cherry Phillips?"
"a. Cherry shrugged. I've been clean
ing house" she admitted. The
place gets awfully dirty and I've
been at it all day."
But, my dear, you're a wreck!
Why don't you hire some one to do
the cleaning? That's what I do
The other girl shook her head.
'We can't afford to hire any one,
she said Anyhow, this is my part
of the Job. You see there are two
OF us to live on Dams salary. You
have only yourself"
Dixie nodded Sympathetically.
She dropped into the nearest chair.

st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 16-The
largest corn crop ever produced in
Minnesota, has been harvested by
farmers of the state this year, the
federal state crop reporting service
said today.
The report of the service said
that while the yield per acre of SO
bushels is not a record it is above
the average and together with a
large acreage it makes this years
total a record breaker.
This years crop was set at 176,-
256, 1000 bushels. The previous rec
ord was set in 1929 and was 1885,
924 900 bushels.
Flax, and potatoes showed in
creases while buckwheat, apples, to-
bacco and beans were produced in
decreased quantities.
1.-THE preliminary production of
potatoes this year is placed at 29,-
100000 bushels, compared with 3d.
$4,000 bushels last year." the re-
port said. 1.-THE yield per acre of
80 bushels is the same as that of
last year. This years corn was
quite spotted. The early sections
and the non-commercial as well as
the commercial areas in the north
ern part of the state show good
yields. The Red river valley shows
about half an average crop while
the sandland area north of the
Twin Cities is very spotted ranging
from good to below average"

Next Legislature
Faces Tax Cut
Law Makers Received Mandate
From People to Reduce Bur-
den Mcdonnell States

The legislator who goes to st.
Paul in January ought now to real
lie that he has received a mandate
from the people to reduce state
taxes to the utmost in the coming
legislative session, since high
taxes was the major issue in the
recent state campaign, ]. P. Nc
Donnell of Buffalo, vice-president
Of the Minnesota Taxpayers As
ISOLATION, declared in radio talk
Thursday.
There never has been peace
time period in our states history
when Minnesota so dearly needed
more wise consideration of prob
lens of the state. There must be a
program of economy in this state
that viii guarantee relief to the
taxpayers. The local and county
units of government have already
opened the way back to sanity. It
is now a problem for the State
Legislature to practice the utmost
thrift just as the local units of
government are doing, Mcdonnell
said.
Here is a real test for our new
legislators. Much is expected, but
the schooling Of recent years
ought to provide some definite pro-
grams that will cut down the bur
den of taxes.
