farming.
These facts for the west and
midwest. Our southern states
are unthinkingly allowin 6
their land to wash away each
year to such an extent that 13
of Sc major reservoirs in our
agricultural regions have been
filled with soil during the last 20
years.
William L. Chenery, editor of
Golfers speaks feelingly in a
recent issue on this most i'm
portant subject:
We destroyed so much of our
national patrimony in land be-
cause for a long time we thought
we could afford to practice de-
structive agriculture. The land
area of the continental United
States seemed so vast that land
waste appeared to be a forgive
able extravaganza. When farm
er exhausted the fertility Of
Eastern land he could always
move West and acquire new
land.
We have come to the end of
that resource. There is no more
good land to be claimed. On the
contrary, farmers are retreating
from land made too poor to sus-
tain life. Farms once titled are
now desert land. Nature is ex-
acting the unacceptable penalties
which come from Haunting nat
ural law. Whether we like it or
not, we are destined to under
take new land policies. We can
not fight nature if we want to
survive.
Happily there is no political
controversy over the broad prin-
ciple of retaining land now in
jeopardy. Democrats and Repub-
licans alike are agreed on the
necessity of combating the
further destruction of fertile
lands. Controversy will unques-
tionably arise over the detailed
measures to be applied in any
large plan to protect the land.
The quarrels, however, will CEN
ter on details. Men as far apart
in other matters as ex-President
Hoover and Rex Tugwell, bell
wether of the New Deal radicals,
are agreed as to the necessity of
land protection program.
In the areas impoverished by
a loss of the top soil, farmers
cannot by any exertion produce
enough to maintain their fani-
lies at any conceivable standard
of health and decency. Denuded
land simply will not yield profit
able crops.
So now we face a new chapter
in the history of our use of a
continent. We can't continue the
old policy. If we did, our re-
naming fertile lands would be
washed and blown away. We
must agree on methods which
will save and protect what we
have left and which, so far as is
practicable, will reclaim what
has been hurt
It will not be easy under our
political system to establish
quickly a national policy of land
conservation. Our historic Gus
toms, our laws and our way of
thinking, make compulsion diff
cult. We have no dictator en-
powered to decree and enforce
a wise land policy. Millions of
individuals must somehow be
persuaded to adopt methods
which will benefit them and pre-
serve the land.

Tins OF a soulless and profit-greedy fl.
nancial boom, permitted 10 run riot By
three %ractionary administrations unre.
sponsive to the American people anc
guilty OF luling them into a false sense
Of security. The consequent crash anc
wholesale disaster reduced multitude.
to enforced idleness and despair.
Time will not permit me to pursue
this comparison and point out all the
salutary measures taken by the
Roosevelt administration to stem the
tide of depression and restore pros
perity. Acting in close unity of pur-
pose with a new Congress, the Roose-
welt administration embarked upon the
wise course Of using the public credit
in this crisis to protect business enter
prises, to rehabiiitate agriculture, vic
timized by special legislation on behalf
OF the industrial interests, and to re-
store the purchasing power Of the
masses. That policy has been success
full to a degree unparalleled in the his
tory of modern economics.
Recovery is here. II is only neces-
sary to take advantage Of the existing
conditions. It only needs the genuine
cooperation OF capital and labor, Of
business and agriculture. 1t only re
quires national honesty and integrity,
and our country would soo find itself
on a wave Of prosperity that would
startle the world. What ~astonishes the
average man on the street is the fact
that our great captains Of industry
and the spokesman for the reactionary
interests, who are so active today, do
not realize the danger they are Great
ing by spreading the gospel Of fear and
by encouraging this conspiracy to
withhold cooperation at this juncture.
Apparently these reactionary interests
do not want prosperity now They
seek to first recover control of the
government SO that they may again
fatten on special privilege.
| am sure that in this great emer-
gency, the peoples conscience, the
peoples judgment, and the peoples
wisdom will re-enforce II great
President and defeat this attempt to
betray. Our country is at the parting
OF the ways. Either it must take,
through the support of Roosevelt and
the sane, progressive policies Of his
administration, the path leading up
ward to a prosperity Of the whole peo-
pie which will be immeasureable, or
else through efforts to re-establish an
unsound, %antiquated system of special
privilege, it must sink through confu-
sion and disaster to a ruin which will
be irretrievable.

State University, Missoula.-June Is.
Special-Hundreds of Montana stud

today as the spring quarter officially
closed with the last final examinations.
At the same time hundreds of other
students were finding homes and apart

Menu with Eye Appeal
Wins Instant Favor
with Guests

The reputation for being a per
feet hostess may be gained from
the ability to prepare delicious
food. However, even more impor-
tant is the foresight and careful
planning given the entertainment
and refreshments, so that the
hostess may be with her guests
instead Of in her kitchen.
When the hostess chooses to
serve her guests from a buffet, she
is saving herself the last minute
details so necessary for individual
service. In addition to its advan-
tage of requiring a minimum of
time and effort to prepare, a buffet
service offers to the guests an
opportunity to chat with all pres
ent. This informal and friendly
atmosphere is not always possible
when serving small groups at in
dividual tables.
A buffet service which has rap
idly gained in favor in the past
year is one which consists of an
assortment of different types of
cheese, crackers and one or two
brands of domestic wine. There
is no food that blends so we'll with
cheese as a good wine. Guests
usually have distinct likes and dis
likes for different types of cheese,
so the thoughtful hostess will pro-
vide a varied assortment.
While there are certain rules
which the hostess may wish to
follow, such as serving a heavy
oil full-bodied red wine with the
stronger cheeses and a medium
sweet white wine with the milder
types, the rule of taste should,
after all, be the deciding factor.

BY GARRETT WATERS

by OAhhEII WAIEnS
Landon Prep School has grown
and with 1t the possibilities OF
bigger and better football teams
This year the little Bradley
Lane school has larger student
body than at any time before. A
total of 100 boys are now on hand
and of this number lis are out
for football.
This latter is the big reason for
all the enthusiasm over the 1896
grid campaign.
OF course all Of the 115 are not
out for the varsity team. There
are other groups. including an $50.
pound eleven, the intermediates
from the upper school and the 80
and 70-pounders from the lower
school.
BanfieId In Action
Bob MacCartee is head coach of
the varsity and 150-pounderS. Paul
Banfield, headmaSter of the school
and q football coach in his own
right in former years, is helping
MacCartee.
Henri Douglass, formerly of
Dartmouth, and Bill Russell, of
Haverford College, Haverford, Pa,
coach the intermediates Bill Trip
lett, formerly Of Johns Hopkins, dl-
reefs the 90-pounders, and Dave
Rounds, of Harvard, handles the
70-pounders.
Now that varsity. It opens its
season tomorrow against st. An
drewS in a game at Landon at 3
p. m. The squad will line up with
six holdovers from the 1885 eleven
including Frank Durham and
Gardner Eaton, ends; Earl Myers,
tackle; Tom Sherley, guard; Jack
Adams, center, and Reds Channel,
halfback.
Like Teams Spirit
Both Coach MacCartee and
Headmaster Banfield believe the
team has the talent to go places
this year. They've worked hard
with the boys in practice sessions
for the past month and like the
spirit and willingness of all to
learn.
Those who have shown up well
include George Pope, Jim Sands,
Joe Patch and Bill Hill, ends; Bud
GoSs, tackle; Jack Ensey, Ed Tier
ney, Bill HerbSt, Jim Randall,
guards; Jack Gawler. Dick Wright,
centerS, and Bob Amussen, Huck
Hughes and Ed Berkeley, backs.
Many of the above group have
developed from the intermediate,
80 and 70-pound teams. This is a
big point in Landon football tao
tics. For the big idea is to get
men from the smaller class teams
youngsters who each year will be
playing for the same goal-a place
on the varsity before he graduates.
A full program of games will
keep the scholastic horizon busy
today. The feature is the Central
Fork Union contest at the Central
Stadium at $3.50 p. m.
Seven other contests list Eastern
against st. Johns at Eastern,
$3.50; Tech versus Gonzaga at
