 Washington, July 19.-(UP)- Senator William E. Borah, repub- lican, Idaho, today counselled the country to turn to currency expan- sion to avoid "chaos and disaster" An argument. practically the same as William Jennings Bryan's in 1896.

 As Bryan campaigned for free coinage of silver to increase the money in circulation. so Borah, leader of the western progressives now argues for. the same goal through currency expansion. He said: -..1.. a..s-.

can be plausibly pictured as a

Hoover's administration has
been, patiently, a failure. With
him as the nominee the Repub-

CAROLINA CLEANS HOUSE

Carolina, that thrifty Dame,
Deeply impressed with her we-earned fame,
And all a-gog to increase the same,
Saw Red in her Ledger and blushed with shame!
Balance your Budget!' the Experts shout,
There too many Young and their Books about!'-
They are costly and troublesome things, doubt;
So she swept the Books and the Children out
One may flourish, where ten must fast
And the Mother of Many is much harassed:
But her house is garnished and swept at last,
For she sold their Future to pay her Past
The childess Mother may rock and rest,
No stir of Life in sterile breast
For Balanced Budget is surely best,
Though Youth be flown from empty Nest
Carolina that shifty Dame,
Sought in the Book of the Blest, her name
First and Farthest," her modest claim,
But scarlet FINS aOrit IN flame!

GLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
M Alicia Hark

The secret of being able to rec
 lax and rest thoroughly lies in
 pliabi1ity of the backbone.
 The greatest area of congestion
 often lies in that section of your
 back from the shoulder biadeB down to the Waistline. When you have settled down onto your spine this section of it becomes rigid
 and affects the nerves of your stomach and whole digestive track.
 Moreover, circulation is affected and your whole body feels the re-
 suit.
 for this part of the back: 1. stand with feet about two
 feet apart. body swayed back, hands clasped behind your head.
 2. Straighten up out of your hips, swaying back slightly. Then begin slowly to pull your head ior- ward with your ciasped hanos. throwing your hips backward to maintain balance. Pull your head you actually feel the tug it gives slowly Gown, down, down until you actually feel the tug 1t gives all the yertabrae down your spinal column. When you have pulled 1t low enough onto your chest to feel the spine uncurb clear down your back, then slowly pull your head up by it's strength. pulling down on your hands t2 hold 1t from jerking. This method stretches the back as you come up with your head, just as # did when you pulled your head down. 3. Lie down on the floor and stretch out. Now raise your knees, l'clasp them with your hands and | roll to sitting position, then back | flat on the floor, up again and back a dozen times. Still holding your knees, roll sideways as far as you can without tipping over, then over to the other side as far as | you can.
 This gives your backbone neat
 massage. and stretches 1t at the same time.

 "Come here moment" said Tom quietly, and as she stood be- side him at the door. there came the rhythmic sound of gentle snoring from the next room.
 "It sounds real" he whispered. 'but, don't take any chances, Binks Remember-when I go" Shutting the door again he indi- cated the key in the lock.

"Well. whats it all about, Claudia 2" asked Miss Corliss, draw ing on her gloves.
 You can take those gloves right off," commanded the teacher of Number One, pointing to q minia- ture desk top. five of which were already occupied by the other first floor teachers. "Sit there and try to be interested in another per- sons hobby"
 "whose?"
 Mine. I've got these babies on my mind. Not four out of five will have a thing for Christmas unless 1 get busy"
 ''Fine!" said Miss Corliss. "Do you think you've got all the poor in the city? Come over to my room and see the rest"
 i've been. All around. And it's the same everywhere. That's why you're invited. We've got to do something"
 Receive No Thanks
 "Wait till you've taught ten years as I have" said Miss Corliss. q used to get the heeby jeebies at Christmas, too. Went in for play ing Santa Claus half a dozen times. What came of 1t? Scarcely a thank you I learned what you have got to learn sooner or later, that a lot of people get the gim- mes at Christmas; they expect other people like teachers and such, to fill up the good old sock or sack and after that they have the pres ents and you have the experience. I've got to go. Go right ahead with your party but count me out"
 "We don't want thanks" storm ed Claudia.
 You see, Claudia" added Miss Hickson, "the firemen do a lot, and the Toy Mission does lot. and everybody. All these young sters will get something or other"
 ''They will not. Dorothy Cor Hiss, you sit right down there. ! know those missions and the fire- men do all they can, but 1t isn't enough. know very well that these kiddies, q third of them any way, won't get a thing"
 T have fifty" said Miss Corliss. "At ten cents apiece that's five dollars. Gee, I've got Jim's gas bill to pay. and Mary's home with her two youngsters. A five dollar bill looks like 8 carpet, I can't do 1t, tell you"
 Repair old Toys
 Were all broke. but here's my idea, girls I have MT Streeter's permission. The boys in the top grades are going on a house to house canvass for old toys. If they can get new ones. all the better. I know one woman with a house. ful she doesn't know what to do with. And on Saturday we're go- ing to open up the basement and manual training room and have a general painting and mendinE and sewing bee. The girls are coming, too.' And we're going to have wrappers and taggers and deliver ers. have the name of every poor little tyke on this floor. If they get toys from somewhere else-- well, 1t won't kill them to have two, will it? I'm giving every second to the work from now on.p
 Its pretty big order" said Miss Corliss, "but--count me in. I think you're kibitzer, Claudia. telling us how to run our Christ mas, but like the idea. When work, work. Anyway. it will be fun"
 Good girl!'
 Were all in. I think" spoke up Miss dickson. Aren't we, girls?"
 They all were.
 The North school is buzzing like a beehive these days. Each toy is wrapped in red paper, marked with q child's name and on the holly tag it says: From Santa Claus.n Cloudia says there will be two toys apiece for the first floor.

And now for the barley" she said. First, what do you think about MT Shaughnesscy now?"
 We cant count him out alto gether,' Tom answered slowly. He hasn't explained and he won't explain all there is against him and, wh .le l think that's just stub born Celtic pride. it leaves him still open to suspicion. Yet 'on the whole he pretty well cleared himself"
 And pretty well implicated MT Statia 1der."
 Tom threw her quick. appre- tiative glance.
 You saw that, too? Yes - he turned suspicion from himself very neatly"
 vet what he told could easily have happened"
 "Yes. We can't disprove it cer- tainly'
 "And there was something about the way he said 1t that rang true. That bit about how MT Stat lander turned away as if he didn't want to see--'
 "I thought of that. It's the type of thing that's hard to make up."
 And what he said about the towel fitted in
 "He made it fiji. He could have invented all that after you told him about the attack and how you found the towel in Statlander's hamper"
 ""But on the whole I believe him."
 And on the whole. so do l."
 They smiled at each other.
 Now" said Linda, lowering her voice instinctively we come to MT Statlander. He certainly seems our best suspect"
 "There's a lot against him. I've heard in the office that he's ef- ficient as the devil, but with ter rible temper and the conceit of Q Prussian officer. For all he's older than any of us here, he has that thick-set. sturdy physique that of ten means abnormal strength, and he's in splendid condition. His temper well, I can testify he has one and he's certainly acted strangely all these days. This morning, for instance, l found him looking up the chimney in the drawing room fireplace. And he had no explanation or apology to make when I came in. Asked me if 1t drew well. as I remember"
 T know. I heard him and it struck me as perfectly ridiculous But that's no sign he murdered Cousin Amos"
 No. but it's a sign he's q little nutty. Who'd ever do that in his right mind"
 "Tm sure I don't know. And as for the personal questions he E asked me and questions about the house-.'
 "Yes. He's inquisitive as the devil. But neither does that nec- essarily mean that he's murder ous."
 Linda shivered. That's ter ribIe word. Tom.
 'T know" He sobered quickly. "Binks--we can call in the police the first thing in the morning or even to-niRff."
