q little 14-year-old daughter who
would go riding with boys at night
after parties instead Of coming home,
because all the other girls did 1t. He
had solved the secrets OF the uni

knowledge gave him any inkling Of
how to manage young girl.
The trouble in dealing with ado.
lescent children is that they think
that they know everything that Is
to be known and that their parents
are doddering old fools who should
be In homes for the senile. They are
also utterly self-conhdent and feel
perfectly capable Of deciding every
question pertaining to themselves
and they resent any suggestion or
advice from their elders. Further.
more. they believe that they have TO
assert their independence and show
how grown up they are by defying
their parents.

tect you and when you say that you
are perfectly capable Of taking care
Of yourself Believe me, no girl of IS
is any more capable Of doing that
than a little lamb is capable Of de-
Tending itself against pack Of wolves.
You know nothing Of life, Of the
world, nothing of men. You have had
no experience to guide you. You have
no strength Of character with which
to fight of temptations. You do not
even know how to Judge men and tell
which are to be trusted and which. as
they used to say in melodrama. bode
you no good. So how can you protect
yourself? How can you save yourself
from the dangers that menace a young
girl at every step?
A ND it Is to keep you from doing the
things through sheer ignorance
that may wreck your life in its very
beginning; 1t is to try to keep you from
stumbling into some pitfall of whose
existence you do not even dream AZ
you dance down the gay path Of youth
that your mother is trying to hold
your hand little and save you from
a fate that might be worse than death.
For what happens to other girls may
happen to you.
So don't try to block your mothers
efforts to protect you. She isn't un-
reasonable in her demands, and you
know very well yourself that she is
right when she says that parking Is
for the sake Of petting, and that the
girl who goes in for that is in such
danger that her guardian angel must
quake with terror for her. And your
mother is right when she says that
the mothers who allow their girls to
run wild are fools. They are more
than that. They are fools and traitors
to the trust God gave them when he
put girl baby into their hands.

QUACKERY IS SEEN

Liberty League Speaker

The farm policies Of the Roosevelt
administration were styled economic
quackery" last night by DR.. G. W..
Dyer, professor of economics at Van
derbilt University.
Speaking under the auspices Of the
American Liberty League over a CO.
lumbia Broadcasting System network.
Dyer defined quackery as:
"An unscientifc, illogical course Of
conduct based on superficial knowl-
edge and positive ignorance"
He assailed the crop and price con-
troll plans, said Secretary Wallace was
seeking from Congress power to con-
troll the manufacturer of farm prod
ucts as well as the producer and
added:
"In view of the facts which are
open to all, If Congress should grant
him this additional power or should
permit him to further exercise the
power lie HAS, IL SlUulO dI OuCC IC-
sign and give place to representatives
Of the people who have the brains to
discriminate between sound govern
mental and business principles and
economic and political quackery."
Dyer said that while many farmers
had mortgaged farms when the de-
preston came, their condition was not
unlike the conditions Of other groups

operated by full owners in the South

ORDERS ARE ORDERS

CIR FERDINAND GORGES was a
~ colonial promoter and his greedy
eyes looked across the sea into the I'M
charted territory Of the New world.
His dreams were concerned with colo
nization. Twice he had sent expedi-
lions, only to meet disaster on the way.
The earl of Warwick agreed to be
Sir Ferdinand's partner. Both gentle
men had heard rumors Of group In
Leyden who were eager to be sent into
America. This group had already pur-
chased and manned the Speedwell and
were also buying the large three-mast-
ed vessel named the Mayfower. The
two titled schemers thought that here
was a ready-made colony for the tax
ing. The rewards were worth risking
fortune.
Sir Ferdinand placed his own cap
tain on the Mayfower. The man was
one Mr.. Jones, an ex-pirate. His pa
tron had rescued him from Jail and he
was ready to take orders. The May
flower left London late in July, 1920,
with Captain Jones and rowdy crew
of his gathering.
They were to meet the Speedwell.
out from Leyden, and then the two
boats were to proceed to Virginia-or
so their passengers thought. The ex-
pirate had other orders from his mas
ter. Twice the Speedwen sprung a
leak and twice put back for repairs.
Members of her crew later confessed
that they had deliberately caused the
damage because they knew the vessel
was headed for the hardships Of New
England.
Finally. in September, the Mayfow-
er sailed. After a perilous trip land
was sighted but 1t was not the .Vir-
ginia coast that the passengers pat
ents had promised. The Pilgrim lead
ers insisted that Captain Jones take
them southwark but he refused and
headed for the dangerous waters of
Cape Cod. Sir Ferdinand's orders
were ordersi

She hurried out and Ben drew up

In the half hour that elapsed before
the older woman returned Ben learned
much about Dawn McManus. This
was her house, her home. Aunt EN-.

She had stayed on, keeping the place

was home again she was the girls

Figure-out for yourself how much
more profit you can make on wheat
just by dust-treating seed with NeD
Improved CERESAN (ethyl mercury
phosphate).
For $1.25 you can treat enough
seed for 40 acres at the average U. S.
rate of seeding. Tests on clean seed
show that NeD Improved CERESAN
increases yields an average of lib
bushels an acre; more, if seed is
smutty. That means over As bushels
more wheat from 40 acres - for
only $1.25l
New Improved CERESAN gives
better stands, controls sinking smut,
brings bigger, better yields. Easy to
apply; one pound treats 80 bushels
of seed. One h., 75c; 5 lbs, $500.

Ben was rising to go when the door

sounded in the hallway Dawn broke
short what she had started to say. A
moment later Nicholas Brandon en-

The mans face, as he crossed the
threshold and saw Ben, was a study.

faint flush whipped up over his dead

as in light gasp of surprise or else
preparatory to sharp speech.
But he gathered himself on the In

TREMENDOUS STOMACH ACHE

FRANCE was passing through po-
L lirical upheaval after the fall of the
Second Empire during the Franco-Prus-
sian war Of 1870. The Monarchists
were determined to rule, but there was
strong sentiment for republic.
The national assembly which would
decide the issue, was almost evenly
divided, with a slight edge in favor
of the Monarchists. The vote was to
be taken on June 80, 1875. AS the
roll Of the assembly was called the
whole atmosphere was tense with ex-
element, for the balloting was very
close.
There was no sound In the chamber
but the grave voice Of the president.
He called the name Of Monsieur Leu
rant. There was no answer. Sur
prised faces turned toward the chair
Of that deputy. 1t was vacant.
The absurdities that interfere with
politics were operating to prevent his
response. Deputy Leurant had a
stomachache that morning, bad one.
He managed to sit through the pre-
liminaries, suffering with the gripping
pains of collie, but finally he could
stand 1t no longer.
The president called his name in
vain. Leurant's vote would have been
for the Monarchists as he was known
to be answering in his devotion to
this form of government. While he
was absent, the assembly was dead
locked. 352 to 352. Finally, as was
constitutionally provided for in such
emergencies, the president cast his
vote in favor Of the Republic.
France might still be monarchy,
If 1t hadn't been for this stomach
ache.

Is wholly government owned. From all
finest illustration of what politicians
can do in the way of building polit-
zeal machines that I have seen in a
score of years In the National Capital.
1t will be remembered that upon ere
alton of the board former Representa-
tive "Seaboard Bill" Stephenson Of
South Carolina was named chairman.
Mr.. Stephenson, being more honest
about politics than many others, an
nounced unequivocally that appoint
ments were going to be made on po-
litical basis. He created quite furore
and finally found himself sidetracked.
For time we here in Washington
have heard little about politics in the
home loan system. 1t has developed,
however. that politics was not dead,
but sleeping. The organization is load
ed again to the gunwales with politics.
For example, several months ago the
Home Loan board decided to have the
corporation "decentralize" it's activi-
ties. The announced intention was to
place corporation offices near to the
borrowers who have to make monthly
re-payments in amortization of their
loans. Few persons at that time
thought, however, that the decentral-
ization meant that which ultimately
has taken place, namely, that there
would be established IL regional Of
fees, 81 state offices and 1873 district
offices. This is the more important
when it is remembered that this enor-
nous payroll and office expense comes
out of funds of the federal treasury.

ATTENTION. SHIFTS
TO DROP OF YEN
Japan Takes World Lead
in TextiIeS-Britain
at Disadvantage.
BY RAIDER wINGET,

hSSOClhICu EICob luhuCthl WllttEs
NEW YORK, March 6.-Foreign
traders have shifted their attention
from gyrations of the English pound
sterling to the quiet action Of the
Japanese yen.
The fall of the yen from a par of
84.40 cents, in terms of the devalued
American dollar, to the current %
cents is much greater than the drop
of the pound from its new par of
1924 to the current rate Of about
$4.76.
On that basis the yen has been de-
preciated to about 33 per cent of its
parity, while the pound stands at
about So per cent.
To the man who buys and sells
merchandise in foreign markets,
whether he be American, British or
japanese, these changes may mean
life or death to his trade.
The japanese have taken world
leadership in textiles, for example,
and the British cannot regain those
markets through depreciation of the
pound so long as the Japanese allow
the yen to drop with the pound, an
action taken in the recent sterling de-
cline.
Those who favored the policy of the
United States in depreciating the dol
lar through increasing the price of
gold pointed out that this country
would gain an advantage in foreign
trade. The cheapness of the dollar.
they argued. would allow America to
undersell other nations
That advantage lasted for a while,
then the other nations also depreci-
ated their currencies, a move which
resulted in balance Of currencies.
Recent statistics released by Toyoji
Inouye Of New York, commercial sec
retary of the japanese Embasy, show
that trade between the United States
and Japan last year was IS per cent
OF japanese trade with the entire
world.
japanese exports to the United
States were 10 per cent of total Japa-
nese exports last year, a decrease
from the 26 per cent figure of 1888,
and japanese imports of American
goods were 80 per cent of total Japa-
nese imports, unchanged from the
previous year.
