But Mark quickly turns from the
crowd on the lakes shore to particular
individual in that assembled mass of
folk. Jairus was a man of high inhu-
ence and social standing, Warden of
the Synagogue. Doubtless he had
wealth, and a choice home, Aud it goes
without saying that he loved his only
child, sweet girl of twelve, the darling
of his heart, now sick unto death.
Trouble is life's greatest teacher. 1t
was trouble that inspired Jairus to ap-
peal to Jesus. Perhaps he had vainly

in his dire extremity, he came, heart
broken, to the feet Of the Master.
1t was trouble also that encouraged
the poor woman who had suffered for
twelve years from a hemorrhage, to
touch Jesus, with supersfitious zeal, as
He was on His way to Jairus home, the
center of an admiring throng.

Instead of rebelling against disaster. or
trying to explain it, we must rejoice
in it, using it for the glory of God and
theSservice Of our fellows,:
The two miracles of healing are re-
lated by Mark with such vivid detail
that we almost feel we are actually
present. There is a very appealing
spirit of sympathetic compassion about
the narrative. Note that Jesus appears
not so much as skilful physician as a
loving, understanding Friend. And
remember that the key to His amazing
power is to be found in that sublime
command to Jairus, "Be not AFRAID.

Unfair Competition

In recent address Representative Joseph B.
Shannon Of Missouri chairman Of the House com
mittee to investigate governmental competition with
private enterperise, declared
SThe government which pays no taxes, no IN
sl1rance and which takes account OF many other
items of indispensable overhead which private enter
prise must pay is able unfairly to undersell the en-
terprises Of its taxpaying citizens This, the commit
tee held constitutes unfair competition
Mr.. Shannon cited many specific instances Of
wartime bureaus which still exist although the war
has been over for IA years He charged that in many
cases the chief activities of these agencies In
connection with the operation of business enterprises
in competition with local merchants and Others
This condition exists especially at Army and Navy
posts where government stores and restaurants not
only serve persons in the military service, but thru
the abuse Of lawful privileges large portion OF
the general public to the detrment Of taxpayng bust

"The conditions which have been revealed to this
committee Of the House Of Representatives of which
/ am chairman are almost unbelievable" said Mr..
Shannon
It is an indisputable fact that the gradual en-
croachaentS of the government In the field OF busl
ness have made conditions difficult for thous-
andS of small merchants who pay taxes and otherwise
contribute to the support of civic enterprises
The findings of Mr. Shannons committee should

has been interested actively in the
Egyptian Y. M. c. A. movement, main-
tanning the Y M. C. A. general secre-
tary at Alexandria-Donald w. Atwell,

WASHINGTON DESCRIBED
AS ENGRAVING CENTER
Social and Business Output Larger
Than in Any One of 81 States,
. Radio Speaker Says.

More engraving for social and business
purposes is produced in Washington
than in any one of 81 States, Albert H.
Brewood, vice president and treasurer
Of Brewood. Inc, said in a radio talk
on "The Engraving Industry" broad
cast by Station WJSV last night.
The talk was the eighth in a series
entitled Leading Industries in WASH
ington," arranged by the Committee on
Manufactures Of the Washington Cham
ber Of Commerce and broadcast each
Saturday.
"It is certain" Mr.. Brewood asserted,
"that washington USES more engraving
than any other city of its size in the
world. and probably more than anv city
Of twice its size. This is because Wash
ington is the center of social and official
life in our country, and because the en-
bassies and legations are located here.
The speaker sketched the history of
engraving since the cave man first
scratched with a pointed stick his crude
drawings on the walls Of his cave"

CORN BELT FARMER
| WILL CUT ACREAGE
Corn, Wheat, Oats, Barley
and Potato Crops Will
Be Reduced.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 25.-The corn belt
farmer has announced his intention OF
giving self-help In farm relief by plant
ing less in 1893.
The uncertainties of weather and
yields will tell the final story, but the
first step in reduction of surpluses In
the Midwesten prairies already has
been taken, official Department oi
Agriculture reports on Intentions to
plant" revealed today.
Corn, Spring wheat. oats. barley and
potatoes-these crops will be sown on
reduced acreages this Spring.
Corn Acreage.
Typical Is the case Of corn. OF all
the States where corn grows tall over
the midland farming area, in only two
cases do farmers expect to grow as
much corn as they did last year. Iowa
and Illinois, which had bumper crops
in 1882. expect to devote only "a and
80 per cent respectively. as much
acreage to the growing Of corn this
year as last.
For the Nation as q whole. the De-
partment Of Agriculture has estimated
103 1884 900 acres will be planted to corn
this year, the smallest since 1880 and
965 per cent Of the 1892 harvest.
Michigan expects to duplicate its yield
Of last year. That Of Kansas Is esti-
mated at 2 per cent greater. But else
where in the upper valleys Of the Missis-
sippi and its tributaries the farmers have
revealed that they intend to plant less,
which should mean lower yields and
presumably higher prices.
The same holds true for most OF the
other major crops of the corn belt. only
soy beans and tame hay prospects being
larger than for last year.
Planting Intentions.
The March l planting intentions re-
port for the Nation as reported by the
Federal Department of Agriculture
are: Spring wheat, 97.5 per cent of
1882; oats, 81; barley. 987; potatoes,
94.6; soy beans, 1889, and the tame
hay, 101.1
Iowa officials have announced that
crop prospects there are for reduction
of 2la per cent from the 1882 acreage,
including 704.000 fewer acres in corn.
Missouri's expectations for 10 leading
crops are equally reduced.
The situation generally Is similar in
the other States, with total acreagc6
being reduced and individual increases
being reported only for secondary crops.

cent of all farms were lost through
foreclosure.
From 1918 to 1880 farm taxes in
creased two and one-half times

other expenses that had to be paid in
cash had been met.

from around $4,000, ,000, 900 in 1929 to

Respect for Capital Community.

The trend in the United States Is
toward fullest enfranchisement rs ma

been transferred from the territorial
