Alarms brought out apparatus

found to be piles of grass and

One yesterday morning in the
vicinity of the home of John

Last night at $50 o'clock call

later the alarm was sounded. This
was only a small blaze and was
quickly extinguished.
Again this morning a telephone
call was sent to headquarters, tell
ing of a fiercely burning fire on
Petronia street near Pearl street.
Responding the engines found a
pile of rubbish burning brightly.
The department officials are of
the opinion that the department
will be in better position to meet
these emergencies If parties who

state whether the fire il burning

Happiness---A Public Polio,
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
BY WILLIAM FIELDING
OGBURN

OGBURN
Research Director, Presidents
Committee On Recent
Social Trends
written For The Associated
Press)
Happiness never has been
considered as a social prob
lem. 1t has been the theme
of the philosopher and the
poet, but it never has been
attacked by science. Indeed,
the comment of the mis-
guided moralists has been:
"The more you seek it the
less you find it."
There has been no platform in
the republican or the democratic
party on the subject. Yet it is the
one thing we all crave.
While many persons will think
it highly fanciful to discuss the
question of increasing happiness
and probably will condemn any
one attempting such a discussion
as an impractical idealist, yet /
doubt if anyone would be so bold
as to say the happiness of our peo-
pie cannot be increased.
If science should investigate the
subject the most probable hypoth-
esis of approach would, ! think,
center around affection. Such
would certainly be the advice of
the novelist.
The affectional life of a people
clusters around marriage and the
family. One in every six marriages
will end in divorce. Yet, curiously
enough, about three out of every
four marriages at any one time
are found to be happy marriages.
Family Problems Studied
The attempt to deal with family
problems by the clergy, by the
physicians, by the courts, and by
growing number. of social agen-
cies and Institutions is meeting
with considerable success.
1t seems probable they will
throw great deal of light on
forces and factors which play a
part in producing happiness or I'M
happiness. 1t seems very prob
able that family problems will
throw a great deal of light on the
question of happiness.
Another great agency operating
i'm society today and placing the
pursuit of happiness in the realm
of public policy is the mental hy-
giene movement.

WITHDRAWN THEY WILL
BE FoRcIBLY EXPELLED

Reports that Chaoyang, Jehol's
second largest city, and other
towns in eastern Jehol, were bomb
ed by Japanese planes, were is
sued today at Chinese military
headquarters in Peiping.
Japanese reports said one of
two advancing armies in Jehol was
at Peipiao. 20 miles northeast of
Chaoyang, awaiting expiration of
the ultimatum at midnight tonight.
Before starting the long-herald-
ed big show, Chinese sources said
Peipiao was attacked, but denied
liz was captured.
The other Japanese army $50
miles northward, was approaching
kaiu, northern key city, with
bombing planes leading the way.
A Japanese spokesman at
Shanghai said the Chinese nation
alist government was informed to-
day that unless troops are with
drawn from Jehol they viii be ex-
PEELED forcibly, although Chinese
officials have not reported receipt
of such a communication. The
japanese spokesman said il was
delivered verbally TO the Chinese
foreign minister.

PORTER REMAINS
OPTIMISTIC OVER
SECURING BRIDGES
FEELS CHANCES FOR OBTAIN
ING LOAN JUST AS GOOD;
SAYS MATTER WILL BE SAT-
ISFAcTORILY SETTLED

Neither the decision of the SUI
preme court that the Overseas
Bridge Corporation has no fran
chise for the building of the
bridges nor any news despatch
voicing an individual opinion APP
pearing in any other paper, has in
no way lessened the chances of the
loan being secured from the Re-
construction Finance Corporation
for the bridges is the opinion of
William r. Porter, vice chairman
of the Overseas body.
Mr.. Porter returned today from
Miami and Tallahassee, where he
has been for the better part of
three weeks in the interests of the
bridges and told The Citizen that
he feels just as confident today in
the outcome of the proposed appli-
cation as he ever did.
The quo warranto proceedings
recently filed in the supreme
court by Attorney Cary ID. Lands,
with Dade and Monroe counties as
co-relators, relative to the invalid
ity of the franchise which was
granted to Rosenthal and was re-
Gently nullified by resolutions
adopted by the Monroe county
commissioners, will be acted on by
the supreme body shortly after
the Inauguration of Franklin
Roosevelt.
In the opinion of Mr.. Porter this
action will take place during the
week of March 6, and will once
and for all determine whether or
not the alleged franchise which
Rosenthal claims is valid has any
force,
Attorneys for the Overseas
Bridge Corporation have also filed
a rehearing of the case instituted
through quo warranto proceedings
by Rosenthal, which resulted in a
decision adverse to the Overseas
body. No reply to this petition
has been received up to this time.
Another phase of the situation
will take place tomorrow morning
in chambers before Judge Jeffer-
son B. Browne, in circuit court,
when the injunction proceedings
instituted by Rosenthal against
the Monroe county commissioners
are heard.
This injunction, asked by Rosen-
thai several weeks ago, seeks to
have an order issued by Judge
Browne restraining the Monroe
commissioners from in any way in
terfering with Rosenthal in his
proposition to secure a loan from
the Reconstruction Fianace Cor
poration and construct bridges
over the specified water gaps of
the highway.

There are certainly types of work
which are a source of joy and
-aappinessalso.
Happiness is to be found for
many in religion and it is true
that for a large proportion of
mankind religion does bring a
peace and abiding joy.
One other foci of forces that
make for happiness is the years
of childhood. The capacity for
happiness or unhappiness is de-
termined somewhat by the for
nation of our personality in the
early years of our life. This is
an important enough problem as
to be the theme of separate dis

According to r. L. DalSon, pro-
prietor of Southern Hickory Smoked
Barbecue, the correct preparation OF
honest to goodness real barbecue,
is a most complicated and delicate
task. He refuses to divulge certain
secrets" in its preparation.
Certain packing houses are given
special orders for particular cuts,
and kinds of beef and pork for bar
becueing purposes. These cuts are
Of a certain size and invariably
weigh from five to seven pounds
each, this causing them all to cook
in the same length of time and
evenly.
During the three years which Mr..
DalSon has been preparing his spe-
cial barbecue, he has averaged put
ting on a batch about three times
each week. In the picture above,
you see such batch started. 1t
weighs approximately $50 pounds.
Further" R. L. DalSon says, My
barbecue is the only genuine bar
becue produced in the city-look up
the definition of barbecue" in the
dictionary. Mine should be better,
too. I not only supervise the pur-
chase of all the meats and in
gradients, but cook it myself, and
personally watch the serving of it.
