1t Marks q Start

NATURALLY. I am not such a
fool as to believe that the
whole problem Of those who have
and those who possess nothing has
been solved by any blanket code
Of the Roosevelt administration But
l think 1 am smarter than those
who can not perceive that this is
the opening wedge into the creation
OF an entirely new state of society
Franklin ID. Roosevelt is not
revolutionary. but he has done more
to move the United States to the
left than all the Communists and
Socialist propagandists put together.
The national recovery act itself
has been labeled a. a temporary
and an emergency measure. but
when 1t Is changed and altered the
swing will be to make il more radi-
cal. We are living in the DAYS Of
transition This is the most exciting
period which American history ever
has known.
Compared to us. the BOYS of VAL
ley Forge were mere visitors al
side show. The failure or success
OF Pickett in his charge at Gettvs-
burg was OF far less moment than
the fate Of the spinal measure in
the New Deal
This is the dawn You can crow
1t over the horizon like Chanticleer
or sulk in your tent with Ajax
II haven't gravely muddled nv
mythology.
The strangest thing to me Is that
the boys who have been CRYING for
q revolution fail to recognize its first
feeble fiutterings OF course. il isn't
the whole hog or anything like if
You may tell me that it is the final
and furtive attempt of the ms to
maintain their position against the
outs But capitalism's last gasp is
also the birth cry Of the co-opera-
tive commonwealth.
All summer long I have been
training vigorously because I want
10 see the new world. II has been
a race between my liver and the
revolution. I hope I can make il
last.
To be sure. this is the bloodless
revolution. Some of my wisest
friends have told me that such q
thing never can be. I've had nv
oouots. But surely it is worth the
try.

Reasonably. therefore, she takes it
for granted that women should do
the housekeeping jobs for the coun-
try. And. come to think OF it, it
has been pretty tough on the men,
having everything to do. Perhaps
THAI is why they have made such an
utter fiZzle Of so many aims.
One doesn't expect a genius 10
be good at budgeting. nor a scientist
or statesman 10 keep up with the
market price Of eggs, or their ma
tional equivalent.
MEN pride themselves on being
A'A good politicians. AS a matter
Of fact. they are exceedingly poor
ones. as the state of politics can
prove. And as for managing gov
eminent efficiency. show me a single
one who has had any prolonged
success? You can't imagine any,

Universal Song

BY WILLIAM CHITWOOD
There is universal song
That murmurs in the quiet breeze:
II rustles in the grass along
The brook, and whispers in the
trees.
II echos in the fields Of grain;
II dvells in every song birds
heart:
It tinkles IL the drops Of rain.
We do GU part. We do our part"
0. may America unite
And truly practice this same song
Till happiness. mans common right,
Replaces every grief and wrong;
May industry's rotating wheel,
Resound in factory. field. and
mart:
And may we all be made to feel
We do our part. We do our part"

TAMMANY SEEKS OPINIONS

TAMMANY'S attempt to measure scientific
- ally the public attitude toward Mayor
John P. OBrien is something new in political
technique.
An expert with assistants will measure
cheers and boos that greet his honor when
he appears publicly. The investigators will
interview citizens in the streets They will
sit in movie theaters when pictures of the
mayor are shown Then they will draw up
graphs. and what they show will determine
whether Tammany casts Mr.. O'Brien over
board or backs him for another term
The experiment has its amusing aspects
Its significance perhaps lies in the fact
that such large group of independent voters
has grown up in New York that the all-power-
full Tammany no longer can rely on its dis
trict leaders alone for a safe forecast of which
way the wind is blowing.

How prompt are some of these
small business men to characterize
the recovery act as biackmail, boy
colt and what not. What a ter
rible blow for these poor souls to
conceive of paying decent living
wage. They can not seem to realize
that unless wages increase at once,
this country is doomed.
Why, indesd, have they had to
struggle to keep open their doors If
not because starvation wages have
decreased buying power and con-
tributed in great measure to unem-
ployment. And now, because they
are urged to do their bit in the
guise Of minimum wage, and this
to the end that they themselves
may prosper, their walls and lamen-
tations can be heard throughout the
land.
True enough, the fulfillment of
the pledge may not be an easy task
for some employers, but were the
sacrifices made during the war
easy? Was fighting in muddy, rat
infested trenches easy? Any business
man. large or small. that can not see
the ACCESSIBILITY Of paying the mini
mum wage, when for several years
past he has been able to hire work
ers at his own figure, most assured
ly deserves a boycott. Just as it was
necessary to draft man power in
time of war. it is equally necessary
to draft buying power in this war
on depression.

The Wabash valley and flood con-

special committee for consideration
by the Interior Secretary Ickes, The
great need for flood control Of the
Wabash and White rivers has been
clearly and forcibly put before this
committee by Representatives Green

literal deluge of letters and tele-
grams from people annually affected
by the overflow Of these rivers.
Such work should have been done
years ago and now that funds are
available through public works ad-

Some Advantages in Soaring Meat
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

firm. so that it holds its shape well. So
both shape and appearance Of meats are
improved by soaring.
The Shrinkage of meats is not so
much decreased by soaring and fast
cooking as might appear, but this de-
crease is in the fat content rather than
in the meat juices. The soaring holds
these juices in by making a casing of
the Drowned outside while the effect on
the fat is to reduce it more quickly. 1t
is when the fat is thus speedily drained
off that the fiber remaining darkens to
the rich brown. In soaring meat it is
important not to burn the fat, as this
SpoilS its flavor.
In soaring meats, beef for instance,
when oven roasting, the temperature OF
the oven should be high before the roast
meat goes into it. Then when the meat
is Drowned and the fat is not too dark
the temperature should be somewhat di-
minished, thus avoiding scorching either
meat or fat while the inside of the
roast gets cooked rare, medium or well
done as the family prefers it.
In soaring meat in pan over heat,
as for pot roast. ragouts, etc, in which
the meat requires steaming to tender,
wash wipe dry and flour the meat be-
fore putting into the pan ready with a
covering SC that they brown evenly.
Then add the liquid prescribed by the
recipe and simmer until tender. The
flavor and looks of the dish are greatly
improved by this method of cooking.
When the juices of the meat are to be
extracted, as in making soups, broths
and beef tea, do not scar the meat. as
the juices are wanted in the liquid not
in the fiber

o deer I'm simply hart broken.
You take lite matters too seriously for
Peet sake, pop said. Suppose you'd

that would be more in the nature of
bad news, he said, and ma said, if
that's sippoSe to be consolation I must
say don't feel relieved.
OWtch, blast it. there's something in
my eye, pop said. And he started to
rub it saying, 1t feels like a confounded
cinder.

cinder, what's a cinder? ma said, Sip
pose you found a nail in your eye?

ing, Blast it to blazes if there's one
thing I hate it's to get blasted cinder
in my eye.
Don't take lite matters to seriously,
and what could be lighter than a Gin
der? ma said. Suppose it had been

TINE exquisite mimosa Is supposed
to be SO sensitive that her leaves
curl up when she is touched.
i This is true of the members of
the sensitive plant, and the
leaves of this lovely tree remind you OF
your experience when you touched the
plant and saw it fold its leaves and re-
main closed for while, then slowly un-
fold again. You are also reminded of
the bean family, when you see the tree
in fruit, later on in the season.
The mimosa is from Mexico, and is
the most stately member of the family.
In its native country it is also known as
the lead tree. The mimosa entered
Texas by way of the Rio Grande. In
the rich bottom lands the trees first
we're seen, then they took up their stand
on the banks and the borders of lagoons
and small streams in the valley of the
lower Rio Grande in Texas. They are
more abundant from MatamoraS to
Monterey in Nuevo, lower Rio Grande
Valley and in New Orleans, La
The trunk of this tree is straight and
upright, separating above into widely
spreading branches. The arrangement
of the branches forms an open, round
tree. The bark is thick and a light
brown in color, breaking up into per-
sistent scales. The twigs are rather
grooved and finely haired at first, later
becoming round and pale brown. The
leaves attract attention at once.
Many people call it the maidenhair
tree. On the long leaf stalk there are
from Is to 20 pairs of leaves, placed
close together. and in their youth they
are somewhat hairy. They are pale
green and smooth.
The flowers also attract considerable
attention. They begin to appear in the
early Spring on the new growth, and
keep on following the new growth until
Summer time. 1t makes the tree ap-
pear to be in continual bloom, when, as
a matter of fact, there is new growth
of twigs, with new flowers to grace
them. The flowers are in axillary
clusters of to inches long, with
globose heads, which are woody before
