lis Last Cards in Losing Game-Border Peace

platform under the savage
spotlight.
The Secret Service men have
taken Don this time on SuSpi-
cion of counterfeiting, but no
case can be made against him
and he goes free again.
And so Don Collins, no longer
'Dapper," is circulating again.
But he's marked in every detec-
tive bureau in the world, and
over his head hangs the men,
ace of a life sentence on an
other conviction.
To the north of our Ameri-
can States, across a border of
mountain, prairie, and water,
lies a young nation which should
be the darling of the future, the
Dominion of Canada. For a
hundred and twenty years there
has never been a gesture Of
armed conflict between the
United States and her closest
neighbor.
All this comes to mind in
noting that the Canadian press
gives large Importance to the
suggestion of our own Minister
to Canada, w. D. Robbins, that
the best and quickest way to
bring about the return of pros
perity to both countries is for
Canada and the United States
to work hand in hand, to con-
suit each other constantly, to be
Of mutual help.
Canada's recovery, without re-
sort to the powerful stimulants
injected this side of the border
by DR.. Roosevelt, has been re.
markable.
Closer Relations
But for full and complete
friendship between our country
. and its young neighbor. GER
tain prejudices and misconcep-
tions will have to be swept
away. Only recently has the
notion evaporated on this side
that the destiny of Canada is
to be a part of the American
union, something Canada never
desired and probably never will,
for Canada is essentially British
and proud of her place in the
British commonwealth of ma
tions.
There are some things about
us that the Canadian does not
care for at all. He resents
American criminals taking ref.
uge in his country. He insists
that our cities are lawless, and
that his are law abiding. He
thinks we feature crime too
much in our newspapers. He
prefers his own, the British,
system of justice to the Amer
lean brand. He thinks Chicago
uses too much Of the water of
the Great Lakes. He can't
understand why we prefer cof-
fee to his tea, and he detests
having to get into our country
by having to cross Maine, or
go down through New York or
Boston in winter.
And he doesn't think we ought
to boast so much about having
the only democratic government
on earth. He is pretty proud
of his own brand Of democracy.
But these are trivial things
in themselves and nothing real
ly stands in the way of closer
and friendlier relations which,
in a very few years, would &C
complish wonders.

Don't Keep It Bottled Up.

Rather than having a crouch,
have an understanding, even
though it leads to a wordy
battle.
such an encounter will at
least clear the atmosphere, and
then it will be easier to make
q fresh start.
Often in families or among
friends conditions arise which
require forbearance, and the
method of frigid politeneSs
robs all concerned Of any real
pleasure in association.
Not infrequently this sort Of
thing goes on so long that it
becomes a habit and love or
friendly feeling which should
exist may leave never to return.
It is silly to crowd unfriend-
illness into Lives short at best.

The clerk Of the New York
Criminal Court bawls out a
name. The heads in the
crowded hall of justice turn
towards the iron-grated door at
the side, and mine turns with
them. For, case-hardened
though we reporters get to be,
there is always drama in the
opening and shutting of that
barred door. Harry Thaw, Ro-
land Molineux, Charley Becker,
Nan Patterson, Abe Hummel
and DR.. Waite-all in their day
had filed through it.
This time, through the sin
lister portal, comes a tall,
broad, flaxen-haired young
man, just turning thirty. A
flicker Of a smile plays about
his lips. Meeting him on the
avenue you might have picked
him for last years AllAmeri-
can full-back. Certainly he is
the best dressed man in the
room.
The old clerk peers at the
prisoner, and then barks:
''What's your true name"
"Robert Arthur Tourbillon."
Shave you anything to say why
the sentence of this court
should not be pronounced upon
you?" mo"
Many Aliases
Judge Edward Swami of the
Court Of General Sessions Of
the State Of New York clears
his throat and adjusts his
glasses. "Tourbillon," he begins,
in the severe voice which comes
natural to all judges, "you are
as smooth a rascal as ever
came before me. You stand
here a convicted robber, but
you are more than that. You
are a real Raffles, a dangerous
character, and all the more so
because Of your glib tongue and
fine clothes. I sentence you to
five years at hard labor in

COAL OF ARMY
Long Hop Planned to Prove
Ability After Mail
Disasters.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, June 21.-Smart-
ing under criticism heaped on it
while it flew the air mail, the army
air corps is planning a spectacular
massed flight from washington to
Nome, Alaska ito prove its flying
ability" it was revealed today.
When Postmaster-G General James
A. Farley Cancelled commercial air
mail contracts last winter and the
army was delegated to fly the mails,
it met with numerous disasters.
Charges and counter charges flew
thick and fast. Commercial and in
dustrial leaders, congressman, SEN
ators and persons high in public life,
denounced Mr.. Farley, charging the
army wasn't properly equipped to
carry the mails.
The air corps itself was not
pleased with its demonstration and
a few outspoken officials fatty de-
clared corps equipment was anti
quated. 1t also was pointed out
that some army aviators were not
trained sufficiently for night flying
"a necessary requirement in air
mail flying.

 Best known of his works is q model farm, fully equipped with . house, garage, granary, milk houAe, barn and al the othev buildings found on q modern farm. lvcn livestock, carved of wood, arc placed in the barn. The size of the farm is three by four feet.
 Hendrlckaon himself is proudest of his replica Of Q picture of the Battloship Maine carved 'on a plaque of basswood. Every detail of the painting is reproduced in the carving down to the most in- significant bit of rope.
