If baptism tany form) alone"
would save a man, it would be an
easy matter to be sprinkled, to have
water poured upon his head, or to
be plunged to the bottom of the
the ocean.
If every person could define all
words and interpret the meaning of
all kinds of literature, there would
be no use in using dictionaries, ency-
clopedias, and other sources of infor-
nation.
NO ARTIST IS AS GREAT
AS HE WHO PAINTS A SPARK

We should have profound graft
tude for all past achievements, but
we should not forget our present
duties, and the debt we owe to the
future.
No person should boast of ill-got-
ten means, or for any victory which
is won at the expense of right and
justice.
THERE IS NOT SO MUCH

IN AN ANIMAL AS THERE IS
AS TO HOW THOSE CELLS
FUNCTION.
If a man is branded skunk, a

There are many people who are
apparently well educated, who seem

Our present educational system
seems to produce workers (if they

more interested in foreign" than in
domestic affairs.
There is vast difference between
merely "jinin" a church and being

defense for Glass, although the exact
cause of Anderson's death was not
brought out.

of the tWo-weekS term. Many cases
considered difficult were tried dur
ing the two weeks, although many

Traitors Ask
Death Penalty

Seldom in the history of the world
has there been such trial as has
ended in Moscow with the conviction
of Is men on charges of attempting
to overthrow the Soviet government
with the Staying of Josef Stalen, die
tator, and others. The defendants
readily admitted the charges, ex-
pressed their shame and urged the
death penalty for themselves. Lead
ers in the group were two men who
formerly were high in the state
councils of the Soviet council, CO.
jointly with Stain Gregory Zinc
vieff and Leon Kameneff. They along
with IA others, were shot to death
last week.

Halle Selassie Plans to
Return to Home Land
Outraged Monarch Now in Exile
Puts No Hope in League
of Nation Members
TO RETURN IN TWO MONTHS

Halle Selassie recently made the
following dramtic statement in an
interview at Worthing, England,
where he is in exile:
"The Emperor of Abyssinia will
not die in exile. Soon I shall rejoin
my troops in southwest Abyssinia.
The struggle for the liberation of
my country will then begin afresh.
II shall never give up the fight for
my : country's independence. The
loans which I failed to obtain at
Geneva to continue the fight, have
every hope of securing elsewhere. A
committee has been formed for that
purpose, and the results it has al
ready achieved are most encourag-
ing.
From now on my forces in the
north and southwest are assured of
ample supplies of provisions, arms,
and munitions.
"It has been said that I have
abandoned my country. Is it neces7
sary that I should be thus slandered?
My sole error up until now has been
the faith I place in the league of ma
tons, and in the sanctity of treaties,
The delegates applauded my
speeches, but when the moment for
voting arrived, they shirked their
obligations under the treaties they
had signed.
'There remains two months before
the rainy season ends. During that
time the entire country will rally to
my call.
"Gas and the reprisals which the
Italians are exacting in the conquer
ed regions are not things which my
people will readily forget. They will
rise at the first call. My duty is to
fight side by side with my troops
in this ultimate struggle. I shall not
die in exile"

CATTLEMEN ASK
FOR NOTHING BUT RAIN

Rain, that's all they want.
Oh, maybe a little more credit, too,
F. E. Mollin, secretary of the
American National Livestock asso-
citation, added
He referred to western cattlemen
and their reaction to the drought.
They are hard HIT" Mollin said.
"But the western cowmen come
from hardy breed. They can face
adversely"

The attitude of the United States Navy
toward youth is a pattern that every parent
can follow to advantage.
Admiral Wat T. Cluverius commander OF
the base force at San Pedro, explained it
simply at a recent Y.M.C.A. meeting in Los
Angeles. He said:
The young men of the fleet are typical OF
the youth of our country. iii training them we
aim, first to inculcate in their lives those things
that 20 to make good citizens realizing that the
Individual responsibility for citizenship is the
hope for survival of democracy. A code of char
acter is most necessary foI recovery today.
"A self-reliant electorate is necessary to the
survival of the nation. Cur strongest defense is
not arms, not ships, out a strong citizenship
back of the Government.
Truth honor and energy must be stressed
Traditions such as thuoe of the navy eXemplify
for youth III the lives OF great leaders Of the past
those virtues important to good citizenship. I
would like to see tradition in the cities
The medication the admiral mentions can
best be obtained in the home. All of the rest
of the character influencing agencies available
to youth valuable as they are at best are only
secondary. The first responsibility rests with
parents.
