mediate declara-
ton of war against Japan; recov-
cry of all Chinese territory, includ-
ing Msnchuria."
This outbreak worries Tokyo, and
it might, if China had few fight
ing leaders, with enough airplanes
and good pilots. China now is like
Niagara Falls before the turbines
were put in, much power going to
waste. What could military genius
and modern weapons accomplish,
backed by nation of 100000, 900?
Helen Coberly said she "never
liked girls clothes, wanted to be a
boy"
Millions of other girls have said
that. Helen lived up to it, put on
boys clothes, went through the
boys high school to the senior class,
earning her way digging bitches,
mending fences"
Known to be a girl, expelled from
the class, she weeps. Some intelli-
gent young man with blue eyes and
a kind heart, marrying Helen Co
berly, might some day be the ia
Their of great American.
The former King Edward has bid
farewell to England, and England
and the rest of the world bid fare
well to the young man, who told his
people: 81 have found it impossible
to carry the heavy burden of re-
sponsibility without the help and
support of the woman love-"
A good many men might say that
who do not realize it.
Whoever wrote, or helped to write
that broadcast, it was a sincere,
touching farewell to the world S
highest position, and well done.
There is no doubt that the young
King inspired it.
Russia's production of gold in
creases rapidly, with IA gold fields
active; the total production not less
than $500, 100000 a year, and &C.
cording to some estimates nearly
$500, 100000.
Russia already surpasses Canada
and the United States in gold pro-
duction, and expects soon to sur
pass the British South African gold
fields, and all the gold goes to the
government. Prospectors and min
ers get praise"
This gold production does not
mean greater power for bolshevism.
Quite the other way, it may be the
worst thing that could happen to the
Karl Marx-Lenin-Stalin theory.
As nations and individuals be-
come rich they become conserva-
tive.
There is still reverence for Eng
ish kings in democratic Amer
lea" In New York clubs of "aris-
tocratic" membership all rose
when the broadcast began, and not
one sat down while the King was
speaking. In England they sat down.
they are used to kings there.
Mrs. c. H. Wilson of Columbia.
S. c., went farther; her house was
on fire, she told firemen, let me
know if you think the roof will fall,
and went on listening to Prince Ed
ward, while the house burned.
1t takes long time to breed out
of human beings that which is in
bred into them through ages; hence
the persistence of our various su-
perStitionS.
Intelligent DR.. Craster, health Of
ficer of Newark, N. j., starts a
needed campaign against kissing
babies, suggesting the use of bibs
embroidered with these words:
II don't want to be sick-do not
kiss me-"
He says:
"a kiss can be more dangerous
than bomb"
Consumption begins in infancy:
babies usually get it from tubercu-
lar mothers who kiss them on the
mouth.
Congress resumes work soon:
what will it do, and try to do? How
will it interpret the As to 2 vote.
"a1 present" except Maine and YER
mont; how viii the unwieldy Demo-
cratic majority deal with its prob
lens?
1t viii probably try to do what
ever President Roosevelt tells it to
do; that last election seemed to
intimate that the President has the
public's permission to do as he
pleases.
And that makes the situation ex-
tremely difficult for the President.
There is such thing as TOO MUCH
approval, too much POWER.
