Trees have always held an impor-
tant place in the imagination Of primi-
tive man. This special regard for
trees Is not restricted to African races,
but appears in the art and mythology
Of almost every nation. In the growth
OF tree man saw resemblance to
his own life. Their age-long existence
was to him symbol of Immortality.
1t is not surprising. therefore, that
tree worship goes back to the earliest
times, and one Of the established ira
ditions among the ancients was that Of
q World Tree.

SEVEN GREAT ARTISTS IN A
DISAPPOINTING PICTURE.

The much discussed and much-ad-
vertised picture, Grand Hotel has
been shown in Libby. 1t featured seven
great stars of unquestioned talent and
the acting was all that could be asked
Some of the work was exceptionally
good, meaning the acting Of Lionel
Barrymore But that is about all that
can be said in commentator of the
picture. We have heard numerous re-
marks concerning it and they were all
derogatory. No one enjoyed the pic
ture
The play was devoid of any plot Of
merit but its chief fault was that it
was SO utterly and completely sordid
Judging from much of their work,
many authors apparently can see only
one type Of human beings. The hero
ines are invariably harlots or women
who have long forgotten the meaning
Of the word virtue, if they ever knew
- alla tliN ltCAoGo 1t
for the harlots. One of the heroes IN
Grand Hotel boasts Of being a COM
mon hotel thief and utterly without
character
We may be somewhat old-fashioned
but we still believe there are virtuous
women and honorable men left in the
world. Isn't it possible for our authors
and picture producers to build few
at least, of their plots about decent
people?
What is said here is not in criticism
of the theatre management The out
standing pictures of the day are in too
many instances just plain filth. But,
| likewise, the most talented actors of
the day work in them And the pub
lie naturally Wants to see the work Of
the best artists. Our criticism is di-
rected against the producers.

great experiment of sending the young
to school"
For a long time we have held that
one weakness of American education
has been that it has emphasized with
too great stress the practical side OF
education, using that word in its pure
" faterial meaning. DR.. Williams hints
at the same thing OF course, it goes
without saying that young person
should be trained so as 10 be able TO
earn living. But is it not of equal or
greater importance that he be trained
not only in how to make living but
how to live? An education that fails
to implant in a students mind love
for the beautiful, and a genuine and
rich culture that comes only from
knowledge and appreciation of the fin
est things of life; an education that
fails to implant high ideals of honor
and integrity; an education that fails
to teach a person how to live a sane
and beautiful and honorable life IS
seriously lacking in essentials
That educators are bordering these
things is hopeful sign, because to
them we naturally look for valuable
leadership in this field Perhaps out of
il will come saner ideals in education.
As DR.. Williams intimates, if young
men are taught in our colleges and uni
versities how Ito live we will have
fewer prominent industrial and busi-
ness leaders solving their financial
problems by leaping from hotel win
dows"

relieved Admiral William V. Pratt from
his duties as chief of naval operations
on February %.
He is to retire because Of age that
day but his departure from service just
before the Government is turned over

to the new administration as a matter
Of courtesy.

Of the Battle Force of the United States

will give the final answer to cosmologi-
cal questions. that they are the key to
the universe"

Albert Einstein, who was among the
audience who heard it expounded in
Pasadena last week. He described it
as the most pleasant, beautiful and
satisfying Interpretation of cosmic
radiation"

apply to wheat. cotton. tobacco, rice,

President-elect Roosevelt has taken the
position that the bill should be confined

Members pointed out it would be nee

included before the hearings begin to
restrict the number Of groups to be
heard.
Opposition Strong.
Opposition and requests for hearing
have come from millers, packers and
other professors" whom the bill would
tax in order to pay a premium to the
producer who agreed to reduce his
acreage. The premium would amount
to the difference between the present
and pre-war price on his share of the
domestic consumption.
