SUPREME TEST AHEAD

Events are moving swiftly to the time
when President Roosevelt and the ''new
deal'' will be put to the supreme test, and
the people generally hope the outcome may
be favorable to the administration and to
the country.
But the powers granted the President
by Congress and the program undertaken
are SO vast as to almost stagger the ina
gination. These involve nothing less than
government control of all business and in
dustry, including agriculture. They en-
brace such radical departure from for
mer ;rican ideas and practices as to
constitute social revolution if the powers
granted to governmental agencies are ac-
tually used to their full extent
In view of this, it is natural that many
thoughtful persons look upon this vast pro-
gram with some misgivings, although they
see the necessity for change in the con-
ditions which have prevailed
SO far business and industry general
ly have shown disposition to cooperate
with the administration in evolving a So
luton of the pressing problems which ex-
list. But such radical changes in the ma
tional set-up as are proposed can hardly be
made overnight without working addition
al hardships on many individuals and bust
ness units.
The arbitrary fixing of hours of la
Dor, wages and prices of commodities is an
experiment of the most far-reaching ma
ture. If carried out as planned, competi-
ton in its ordinary sense will be virtually
eliminated. No one positively knows how
it will work out. But we shall soon see.

10 miles per hour. Pressure is
moderately low this morning over
New England. in the central and
southern Plains States and far
West; while a high pressure area
extends from the northern Plains
States eastward over the Lake re-
gion, and pressure is also high in
the Gulf States. Showers have
been general during the last "a
hours from the central Rocky
Mountain region and northern
Plains eastward over the southern
Lake region to New England. and
have also occurred in few other
widely scattered localities. Cooler
weather has overspread the Lake

LONG PUBLIC SERVICE

OF all the men who have served in
Congress since the beginning of our govern
ment. Joseph G. Cannon, Uncle joe" of
Illinois, holds the longest record, Is years,
all of which was in the House of Represen-
tatives, although his service was not con-
tinuous.
Justin s. Morrill, of Vermont had the
longest continuous record in Congress. a
little less than IA years, divided between
the House and Senate
For total service in the Senate, that of
Francis E. Warren of Wyoming was the
longest, more than 81 years But for
the longest continuous Senate record Viii
liam B. Allison of Iowa achieved the dis
tinction with more than IS years of unin-
terrupted service to his credit
None of these records are even closely
approached by the present members of
either branch of Congress. and it is likely
that they will all stand for good many
years 20 come.

A PREHISTORIC MONSTER

After being buried for ages in the fos-
sill beds of northeastern Utah, the largest
skeleton ever discovered on land now
stands in the Carnegie museum at Pitts
burgh striking example of the monsters
which roamed the earth during the Age of
Reptiles, many millions of years ago.
This skeleton is that of Brontosaurus,
of the dinosaur order of reptiles, 100 feet
long and 20 feet high In life the animal
weighed perhaps 20 tons. Alongside of
it an elephant would seem as small rela-
lively as dog beside horse.
The fossil bed from which it was taken
is the most extensive deposit of dinosaur-
ian and other reptilian remains ever dis
covered. 1t was found in 1919, and the
site is under the protection of the National
Park Service. More than 200 tons of bones
and other material of scientific value have
been removed for study and exhibition,
with very little duplication of specimens.
According to a statement by the Park
Service, it is the belief of scientists that
these prehistoric animals were originally
imbedded in said bar in some ancient
river. This sand turned to sandstone and
was covered by thousands of feet of other
strata of rocks, the whole later being fore
ed into an upright position by great vol
canic upheaval, which left the fossil bed
exgcs on mountain top.
Through the patient labors of scientists
who are continually exploring among such
records preserved in the rocks, as well as
among the ruins of ancient civilization, sal
lent facts in the worlds history which were
totally unknown few years ago are being
brought to light.

OUR CHILDREN
BY ANGELO PATRI

These useful habits are forced by
everyday practice. The same thing at
the same time every day without fail.
This does not lead to monotony. It
permits the child to enjoy a variety Of
occupations and interests. Once the
body takes over the habit the child is
free for the next thing. The more of
these helpful habits he has the more
freedom he has for enriching expert
ences.
Some Of the useful habits are eating
on time. washing promptly, dressing.
putting things in their places when
finished with them, doing errands
promptly getting to school every day and
on time, taking directions, helping other
people on job.
Besides developing useful habits, this
regularity gives the children a mental
uplift. The child who knows what is
expected of him from time to time has
feeling Of security and certainty that
tones his mind. He Is not fidgeting
about, waiting for something to happen
He knows what is going to happen and
he knows what he is to do about 1t.
That gain frees him from fear and
the unrest that fear breeds.
The clock is despot. But following
it bestows freedom. The time waster is
never free. The regulated worker always
has time to spare for his cherished in
terests. The regulated person Is health
ier. mentally and physically, than the
unregulated one, and far more efficient.

was eastward to Lily Lake On the
shore was boat which might be used
in crossing. Some legends said that
the boat was in the care of single
ferryman. but other writings Of old
Egypt speak of four men with curly
hair who managed the boat.
If the ferryman, or the four men with
curly hair. should not be willing to take
the king across Lily Lake to meet the
other ways to reach the sky. The king
might use wings Of a hawk and fly to
the home Of the sun god. or he might
climb a ladder or stairway let down
watched sunlight shining through a
small opening in the clouds, you know
the ladder or stairway which Egypt's
king sometimes used.
After reaching the side of Ra, the
king rode IN boat along the river
OF the sky" each day going from east
to west. The Egyptians did not know
that the east-to-west path Of the sun
Is due to the motion Of the earth, not
the sun.
Common folk did not look forward to
life with the sun god. Their journey
was to the Underworld; and it was their
earnest hope to go safely.
The double had to avoid many dangers.
After passing through the Gates of
Fire, he chose between the Two Ways.
One was by water, the other by land
Between was the great Lake Of Fire
Both ways were dangerous There
were hungry crocodiles and poisonous
snakes. There were spirits which
walked upside down" and which might
do harm.
To avoid such dangers, the double
had to speak magic words learned from
the Book of the Dead If he succeeded,
he would reach the Hall of Judgment
Among the pictures saved from ancient
times in Egypt is one which shows q
man and his wife reaching this hall.

Follow the Clock.

n VERY young couple should be
L. presented with a good clock on
the wedding day. There is moth
- ing that makes for peace and
harmony, for quiet, happy Living,
so much as regularity in the ways Of the
household. The clock beats time and
the wise housewife follows its beat
round the hours.
When the children come this regu-
guess the time for the baby's feeding.
It must be on the dot. The rest time
and the recreation hour. the baths, all
must come on time. Doing the same
thing at the same time every day sets
habit In the child's body. Soon the
nerves and muscles take over the idea
and no further thought need be taken
about it. The baby will signal for his
dinner when the hour approaches. His
stomach makes a good timepiece. The
only trouble with it is that it may get
out Of order and signal ahead or behind
time. Better stick to the clock.
I stress the regularity of the clocked
day because it helps a child establish
habits that save him time and energy
and trouble. II he does the same thing
at the same time every day, without fail,
his body Is going to take over the habit,
register it in his nerves and muscles
so that the thing gets itself done with
out any effort on his part.
Every new experience demands the
entire attention. If every experience
demands attention the child will not get
far in day, and he will be laboriously
struggling to achieve the same old task.
He works endlessly and arrives where
he began. If he can cut his own meat,
eat his dinner without direction, wash
his hands and face afterward as a mat
ter of routine, he can give his attention
to what is going on about him. If he
can button his own coat he can listen
to your directions at the same time.
Otherwise he will have to button his
coat first, then attend to you, and there
may not be time. Usually there isn't.

Religion of Old Egypt.

w YHEN the magic words Of
Egypts priests raised the
wv dead, as 1t was supposed
they did. the problem was
only partly settled. There
was trouble about reaching the happy
place where the dead were expected to
dwell.
BY raising the dead. the priests de-
clared that they brought the person to
life even though his mummy remained
IN the tomb. Out Of the body came the
spirit or double" which was to go to
the sky or to the Underworld.
The kings Of Egypt hoped to live with
Ra, the sun god, but the journey was q
long one. The usual method Of travel
