SENIORITY

The other question is:
Who is going to be the senior
or the junior Senator from
Florida Of the two men coming
in on January 5?
OF course, this makes a lot of
difference to a Senator. It means
a preference on committees. 1t
means something in patronage. It
means something in most every in
stance in which there is a higher
honor, courtesy or privilege to be
given.
Now seniority in the Senate IS
religiously adhered to-as it is
on the railroads.
If you've been there longer
than the other fellow you're the
tops and that's all there is to it.
It won't make a bit of differ.
ence that Mr.. Andrews has been
nominated to fill an uneXpired
term that will last until 1941 and
Mr.. Pepper was nominated to fill
a term that runs only until 1899.
So what to do?.
Well, in the case Of a new
State where the two Senators
were sent here for the first time,
like Oklahoma, the two men
stood in the chamber and sol
emnly drew lots to see who
would take precedence over the
other.
In the Florida case the two
might do the same thing if they
can't decide it between them
selves before the day arrives fol
them to be sworn in. Provided
of course that they are both
elected which, as I must repeat
the Republicans hope won't
happen.

PRECEDENT

In the case of Mrs. Rebecca
Latimer FELTON,, of Georgia, who
was allowed to sit in her seat two
days by appointment while Sena-
tor Walter F. George stood back,
although duly elected, it was made
o. K, since her appointment was
good until Senator George quail
fled, although he was duly elected.
Senator Hill might be allowed
the same privilege, although his
term would be over two months be-
forehand. In any case, the point
was stretched foR Mrs Felton, 50

scared by the summer sun, Uttered
with the summers refuse.
Yet beneath that hopeless sur
face, secret pulls and pulses are at
work. Presently there will come a
uuickening a film Of living
green. Once more that earth will
laugh with spring!
But why? What tells the blind
seed when to stir in the still SOIL
or the wild goose to head for
the South }. or a woman's heart
to call for mate? Not some ef-
ficiency expert but the secret
| tide of life itself, rising, falling in
it's mysterious Order.
That Uttered lot, poor though it
seems, is actually far better OR,
GANIZED than many a brilliant
man or woman. 1t has neither
system nor schedule, but it is IN
TUNE with creation >. it is open
to Life, and Life never fails it.
You had Order like that when
you were a child. Some people
never lose such Order. You can
feel it in them. They may lack
most of those tokens by which the
world reckonS success, but they
have something infinitely more
precious.
There is a freshness to them, a
spontaneous curiosity and happi
ness, a warm impulSiveneSS that
continually quickenS them and re
freShes those who come in con
tact with them. But also, there is
a deep and quiet strength - they
are in order.
ESSENCE OF ORDER
You, too, must have Order
Your life is miserable without it
But you cannot find it through
schedules. It is not enough tc
make time and opportunity tC
eat, sleep, work, play. YOU must
make time and chance to LIVE
to let Life into let Life have
it's way with you.
Time and chance for love and
laughter-heaIthy hate and whole
some doubt-time for experiments
fumblings and failures - time
and chance, above all else, fol
those saving periods of laSsitude
and emotional indifference which
are to a man what its fallow sea
sons are to a field.
To move with Life-to let Life
move in you-that is the essence
of Order. We have forgotten that
in our maze of Machinery, oul
torrents of talk.
We have let the wheels and
type do it. Then We wonder at

Ann Sothern Also Featured in Versatile Comedy

When three Broadwayites, pretending they are play producers, come to his home, make themselves comfortable and partake of the wholesome farm food-he is quite ecstatic, believing they will produce his play When he learns they are imposters, merely taking advantage of his hospitality, he is heart-broken. The situation, however, builds to novel and really funny climax, giving Haley his great est opportunity at sheer comedy

Eritreans Desert Italy; Flock to Halle Selassie

DESSYE, Ethiopia. Feb. 22.-Hun- dreds of Eritrean deserters from the Italian army have offered their services to Emperor Selassie since he came north to take charge of his armies in the field.
 Steady streams of these desert CTS make their painful way over the rocky roads to seek a direct audience with the Emperor. Italian machine guns, rifles and other equipment are brought by them.

See These Banners Go, Story
Of Professionalism in America
Frank S. Mead, Author, Takes Nine Leading Churches
and Writes OF Beliefs, Heroes, Struggles and
Contributions Since Year 1879.

Strife within and among the
sects are passed over rather hur-
riedly. and emphasis is placed upon
spiritual, social and educational
contributions. The number Of po-
litical reforms which terminated in
the American Protestant churches
were, to this reader at least, amaz-
ing.
Yet it is a look about men rather
than facts; brave men who dared
suffering and death to preach and
live in the light of their belief.
Whether one believes with these
men, he scarcely can fail to admire
them.
'See These Banners Go" is a plea
as well as a history. What we call
the church is a SNOWFALL, rolling"
says the author. Sometimes small
parts of the SNOWFALL have broken
off, gone rolling off in independent
ways, creating lesser snowballs. other
separate churches. Yet all the
while, the first, main, great snow
ball. the universal Catholic Church,
has rolled on, ahead, beyond us, so
that we see it but dinly now, as
through a glass. 1t is an Invisible
Church and We are praying We may
catch up with it again and gather
all our scattered little companies
and sects together again. The gath
.ering process We call Church Union. !.

BY JAMES THRASHER

The story of Professionalism IN
America, story that begins on that
day in 1879 when Francis Fletcher,
chaplain to buccaneering Sir Francis
Drake, planted the cross of the
Church of England on California
beach-is told by Frank S. Mead in
his vivid book, See These Banners
Co."
Taking nine of the leading Pro-
testant denominations; Protestant
Episcopal, Congregational, Reform
ed, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Baptist,
Friends, Methodist and Disciples OF
Christ, Mr.. dead has written Of
their beliefs, their heroes, their
struggles and their contribution to
American life. And he has written
with a genuine and infectious en-
thusiasm.
This is a book for layman and
clergyman alike, for the casual, uni
formed reader as well as the scholar.
Theology and polemics are avoided,
and there is not a dull paragraph
in the entire olume. Though much
of it is in an easy, almost CONVEX
sational style, the subjects are
treated with reverence, sincerity
and broadest sympathy. One must
90 through several chapters to con-
vince himself that Mr.. Mead is not
an ardent and devout member Of
each. denomination.

churches came from country
churches. Indianapolis will do we'll
to remember her debt to rural In
diana.
Trend Is From Country
Make a list of our honest busi-
ness men, self-respecting attorneys,
unself1sh physicians, church work.
ers, ministers and teachers. It will
surprise the one who takes things
for granted to find that the great
bulk of them were reared in the
country and were converted in a
little rural church. If we want to
build a righteous city we should
consider ways of strengthening the
country church.
Few people know that Indianap-
oils is the center of one of the most
successful cooperative efforts in
the western world The Indiana
Farm Bureau Cooperative ASsocia-
ton has been able to build high
ly important business on the basis
of cooperation among farmers. 1t
is one of the few businesses that
has grown steadily during the years
of depression.
While the selfish corporations
continue to mulct both producers
and consumers, the American farm
er is laying the foundation for a
cooperative commonwealth in
which producer and consumer will
exert the dominating influence.
Back to the Land Urged
So far in this depression we have
made very few constructive efforts
to relieve unemployment. European
nations turned to the land many
years ago when faced with the
same problem.
The land offers an opportunity
for our millions of dependent fami-
lies to support themselves by their
own efforts. Many good people are
concerned by what they call red"
tendencies in American life. Land
owners have never been subject to
radicalism. The Russian kulak is a
good example.
Why not, then, begin movement
for resettlement of our dispoSsessed
and unemployed millions on few
acres of land. supplemented by part
time unemployment, as a means Of
ending idleness and at the same
time saving our democratic institu-
tons? Back to the land will be a
forward movement for the Amer
lean people.
