-. 49, eas .szz;a-9-.- Psalms:
seek thu
arthur brisbane Lord, and His
strength; seek His face evermore.
Remember his marvellous works
that He hath done; His wonders,
and the judgments of His mouth .
You spend a moment wondering
what kind of English man or wom-
an, strong in faith, decided to put
that text before statesmen that to-
day seek the ''face'' of Hitler, Mus
solini, Stain, but forget the greater
power of the Creator Of those gen.
tlemen.
After that, you read in the same
Times this advertisement:
"F'urs humanely obtained that
can be worn with a clean con-
science-full particulars from Maj.
c. Van Der Byl, Wappenhana, Tow
cester."
This being an ingenious and
doubtless quite sincere appeal to
the tender-hearted Englishwoman
who does not like to think that the
fur around her neck once belonged
to an animal that suffered for days
and perhaps weeks tortured in a
trap.
Possibly the best way to 'obtain
furs humanely obtained that can be
worn with clear conscience is to
buy and wear some Of the innu-
merable furs, from rugged bears
to silky chinchilla, made from the
skins of rabbits that are nourished
in little hutches in the suburbs Of
Los Angeles, and fed with rabbit
hay" tender young alfalfa, grown
on the Mojave desert, a good deal
of it on a ranch owned and operated
by this writer.
h When you buy furs, no matter
what kind, with a rabbit skin foun-
dalton, you may be sure that the
animal suffered very little, it at
all, and when you buy that fur you
also buy honest American alfalfa,
which is a vegetarian product.
f. C. Cobb wrote from the Boy
Scout reservation at Allaire, N. j.:
The last four week-ends have
ben spent by our scouts collecting
tent caterpillar egg clusters from
wild cherry and apple trees along
the highways of Monmouth and
Ocean counties. Many thousands
of egg clusters, each containing
on the average $50 eggs, have been
destroyed"
No better work could be done
by scouts and other boys. 1t is
far better exercise than perfume
tory "hikes," often exhausting for
smaller boys.
The fathers Of the boys, also in
need of exercise, can be useful
moving weeds along highways, ex-
sellent work for the lungs and for
reducing the waist.
Edward S. Hardness, generous
young New York financier, gave to
Lawrenceville School for BOYS a
sum that will make possible i'm
portant new building, plus rebuild
ing and a more extensive system
of small-group instruction, with
more teachers.
Mr.. Hardness, who does not like
publicity, refused to make public
the amount of his gift of Lawrence
vile, but he gave $7,OOO,OO0 to Ex-
eter academy, $13,000,000 each to
Yale and Harvard, to finance their
housing systems. That gives some
idea Of the size of his gifts.
Some Americans will agree that
it is good thing to have men of
unusual ability accumulate wealth
wisely.
Old-fashioned Americans would
rather encourage such gifts and
praise the givers than inculcate the
notion that anybody with brains
enough to accumulate wealth in
this country of opportunity is prob
ably thief and ought to be in Jail.
Mussollnl knows how dictator
can keep his hold on the people. He
establishes 1000 govern n t
camps where half a million poor
children enjoy free vacations at
sea and mountain resorts. For nine
years Mussolini has carried on this
work.
In Europe, English, French, Ger
man, Italian or Czechoslovakian
will believe anything you say about
American crime, and that is hardly
surprising.
The heading Chicago Politician
Dies Under Hail Of Racketeers'
Bullets" surprises nobody. There
might be mild surprise if the head
ing read, Chicago Politician Does
NOT Die Under Hail of Racketeers'
Bullets"
