WASHINGTON, April Is. - Two
gardeners drank champagne at the
Spanish embassy yesterday after
noon. No, they didn't pilfer it.
The wife of the ambassador in
vited them to have it. For the day
was the first anniversary of the
overthrow of King Alfonso and the
founding of the Spanish Republic,
and the embassy celebrated in a
most democratic manner.
The festivities began with a
luncheon-not at all the usual sort
of diplomatic luncheon. Ambassa-
dor Juan de Cardenas invited the
stenographers and clerks as well
as the regular diplomatic staff. II
the afternoon there was a recep-
ton for the entire Spanish colony
in Washington. 1t was to this
affair that Sonora De Cardenas
invited the gardeners.
At night came the most demo-
cratic gesture of all. Ambassador
DeCardenas arranged sumptuouS
banquet for the embassy servants
and their friends. Then he him
self went out to dine with the
Belgian ambassador. The servants

THE CONSTITUTION

ATTENTION of readers is directed to
n the oratorical contest to be conducted
at the high school tonight, when students
will compete in the annual discussion on
the constitution of the United States.
There will. of course, be some who
will attend, mostly parents Of students
and contestants and their friends. But
there will be nothing like the attendance
there would be if Central Unions Spar
tans, for instance, were playing the Cal
exico Bulldogs on the gridiron.
Yet the reader can judge for himself
which is more important-a few mo-
ments of excitement over % young men
struggling on the athletic field, or a bet
ter knowledge Of the remarkable docu-
ment which governs the United States
of America.
The ignorance of the great majority of
American citizens concerning the consti-
tion of their country Is not only lament
able, but shameful.
Some may know that an amendment
to the constitution took away liquor and
another gave women the right to vote
but of the main document and other
amendments, many have little or no
knowledge.
The constitution as originally written,
was adopted 145 years ago, on Septem-
Der II, 1887. Since then 19 amendments
have been adopted, modifying the orlgl-
nal document somewhat, but in the main
the constitution remains the same as 1t
was when adopted, serving not only as
the basis for the government OF the Unit
ed States, but also offering model on
which numerous other governments have
been established.
It is not a difficult matter to read and
study the constitution. 1t is written IN
simple language, readily understood by
the layman and those with limited ed
ucation. 1t is remarkably brief for such
an important work.
Divided into three sections it pro-
vides for the legislative, executive and
judicial branches of the government.
The rights and duties of each of these
departments are outlined and explained.
The rights of the citizens, OF the varl-
Gus states, and of the national govern
ment are set out so as to be readily un-
derstood.
A better understanding of the consti-
tuition is essential to good citizenship.
Much attention is given in schools now
to study of the constitution but it was
not always so. Those who attended
school one and two generations ago, were
given only a smattering knowledge con-
cerning it. And it is quite likely most
of this has been forgotten through the
passage of time. This has resulted in
the foreign-born citizen quite frequently
knowing more about the constitution of
the United States than the native born
citizen. The former must exhibit
knowledge of the constitution to acquire
citizenship, therefor he studies it. The
native born, on the other hand, not be-
ing subject to any examination, too fre-
quently has a knowledge of the consti-

What Is a secret-that apple?"
asked Mr.. Longears. Because if
it is I have a lot more secrets down
cellar"
"Oh, please hush" begged Nurse
Jane. you'll know all about it in
little while. OF course the apple
isn't a secret, but what I am going
to do with it is. Please hush
So Uncle Wiggily hushed but he
listened. He saw Nurse Jane hurry
up the stairs and then he heard
his wife ask:
Did you get it?"
Eyes, and a good hard one, too
said Nurse Jane.
MY goodness!" thought Uncle
Wiggily. Il guess some of the Bad
Chaps must have gotten in up
stairs and Nurse Jane is going to
throw a hard apple at them to
make them run away. I'd better
go up and help them"
Uncle Wiggily crept softly up
stairs and when he was outside
the room where the rabbit chill
dren played when there was no
school, he heard the voice of
Tootie saying:
mo! No! m not going to take d
bite. Please go away and let me
alone! Pleased"
"Oh, Tootie, take a bite of this
nice applet" begged his mother.
NO! mol" cried Tootie, who was
one of Uncle Wiggily's little rab-
bit boys.
ITS such a nice red apple,
! spoke Nurse Jane.
"Oh, I wish you'd go away and
let me alone!" howled Tootie.
The door of the play room
opened and out came Miss Fuzzy
Wuzzy. In one paw she carried the
red apple and Mr.. Longears heard
his wife say:
Maybe he'll let me pull it out
jamie. Leave him with me-"
Whats the matter, Nurse
Jane?" asked the rabbit gentleman
as he saw the muskrat lady out in
the hall with the apple.
Matter enough" she answered
Your little boy, Tootie, has a loose
tooth. His mother and I have triec
to pull it so it wouldn't drop down
his throat and choke him, but ht
} won't let US touch it,"

so Tootie has a loose tooth, has
hep asked the rabbit gentleman.
"a very loose TOOTH" said Nurse
Jane. Il thought maybe if he took
bite of a hard apple the tooth
would stick in it and that would
be an easy way of pulling it."
And did hep" asked Mr..
Longears.
He wouldn't even smell the ap-
pie, much less bite it," said Nurse
Jane. And from the room where
Tootie was sitting with his mother,
Uncle Wiggily heard his bunny
boy say:
Don't touch it, Don't touch my
tooth! I don't want it pulled even
if it is loose! 1 want to keep it
forever and ever!"
But you can't, my dear said
his mother. Let me take hold Of
it and lift it out. 1t won't hurt d
bit and then everything will be all
right. Let me pull the loose tooth. =
mol No! MOI" cried Tootie.
Hal It's time I did something" &"
said Uncle Wiggily. He looked
around the corners of the room
and saw a ball that Baby Bunty
had been tossing to Jingle. Picking
up the ball, Mr.. Longears went in
the room where Tootie sat with
his mother and the loose tooth.
Have a catch, Tootiei' cried
Uncle Wiggily.
"Oh, DaddicumS, have you come
to play ball?" asked the rabbit boy.
"Of course I have" said Mr..
Longears. Here you are! Catch
the ball!" He threw it quickly to
Tootie. 1t was a soft, rubber bail
and when it hit the little rabbit
in his mouth it didn't hurt at all.
But down on the floor dropped
something white like a pearl.
"Oh, there's my loose tooth!'
cried Tootie. You knocked it out
with the rubber ball. Daddicums!
And I'm SO glad"
so am l." laughed Uncle Wig
gily. And his wife said: so am
I. for now I don't have to pull it.
So Tootie's tooth came out all
right.
And if the baker man will give
me four molasses cookies to make
wheels for the rubber dolls car
riage, I'll tell you next about Uncle
Wiggily and Pokie's peanuts.

had a grand time by themselves,
feasting and enjoying costly wines
from the embassy cellar.
Government radio operators
along the airways are relaying
this story:
The radio man at the Jackson
vile, Fla, airport was testing out
some new sending equipment. He
thought it would be a good test
to communicate with Pilot Fred
Conner who was flying the mail
from Jacksonville to Atlanta. So
ne broadcast this message:
pilot Conner, when you come
back to Jacksonville, let us know
how you received u.s.
Apparently the flyer didn't re-
ceive it very well. At least this
is how he understood the message:
pilot Conner, come back to
Jacksonville.
So an hour and a half later,
about the time the mail was due
in Atlanta, Conner brought his
plane back down on the Jackson
vile field to find out what the
trouble was.

CHAMBER FINDS
ANTI PEDDLINC
SIGNS EFFECTIVE

That the mo peddler" cards
sent out some months ago to ev-
cry residence in Ell Centro by the
chamber of commerce are becom-
ing effective is proven by recent
threats on the part of an agent
for an out-of-town concern to
bring suit against the chamber
for violation of the interstate COM
merce act. Knowing there had
been no such violation, Robert
Hays, manager of the local cham
Der, wrote to cities in which the
agent stated test cases had been
tried concerning the legality of
no peddler' cards and found. of
course, that there had been no
such test cases.
When agents and. peddlers
start to object we know the signs
are bringing results" stated Hays.
1t was at the request of the house.
wives of the city that we put these
signs out, as we had numerous
telephone calls daily concerning
the number of persons ringing
doorbells for the purpose of SELL
ing merchandise. Immediately af-
ter they were distributed there
were few objections on the part
of some housewives who stated it
kept away solicitors whom they de-
sired to have call The chamber
staff, however, explained that that
body could not differentiate be-
tween solicitors and its purpose
primarily in sending out these
cards was to protect the local
merchants, who pay taxes and
have large pay rolls, from transi-
ents who contribute nothing to the
growth and prosperity of the COM
munity."
Although the display of the
signs, stating mo admittance to
peddlers and agents." has helped
to cut down the large number of
solicitors constantly ringing door
bells, Hays states that more effec-
tive results could be secured if
every home in the city would dis
play one of these signs. There is
still a supply on hand at the cham
ber headquarters and any person
calling will be given a card gladly.
I'VE would like to see one of these
cards on every home in the city,"
states Hays, and we are going to
ask each resident to put one up
and keep it there until we are
sure the campaign against transi-
ent peddlers has become success
full"

Having finished breakfast in his

ready to hop OUT and have an ad-
venture when he saw Nurse Jane
Fuzzy Wuzzy going up stairs with
big red apple in her paw.
What are you going to do with
the apple, Janie?" asked the rab-
bit.

TWENTY YEARS AGO

NEWSPAPERS of 20 years ago today
IN carried headlines which sent thrill
of horror throughout the world as they
told of the sinking of the steamship Tt
tanic in mid-Atlantic, with a loss of
1885 souls.
Many recall the tragic story of the
new pride of the Atlantic making its
first run from England to New York.
crashing into huge iceberg while those
aboard were at the height of merry-mak-
ing, celebrating the fast trip which the
monarch of the seas was making.
Tales of cowardice and heroism, most
ly the latter, were carried in the papers
for days, as details of the terrible trag-
edy were received.
Notables in this country, including
John Hacob Astor, Isadore StrauS. Major
Archie Butt, and numerous others were
among the victims.
All the horrors of men, women and
children, adrift in lifeboats in an icy sea,
of others drowned because of overcrowd-
ed lifeboats, were talked about for days
afterwards.
Outstanding hero of the incident was
Jack BinnS, wireless operator on the
White Star liner Republic, who, sitting
at his key, caught the signal of distress
from the stricken vessel, and who start
ed the attempts at rescue, most of which
arrived too late to be of much assistance.
1t was the first time that wireless had
figured in a major sea tragedy and the
new invention was acclaimed as it right
ly deserved to be.
To younger generation, the Titanic
disaster means little or nothing. To
others who recall its grim tragedy so
wildly it will always be remembered as
the most monumental of sea catastro-
phies.
