Hampshire didn't charge duty on
Massachusetts goods. New York COL

New Jersey cargo that sailed into port.
All the States Disseminated against
each other Congress did nothing.
The young Union had no credit
abroad, was pauper among nations.
Rhode Island money was no good in
Connecticut. It was possible to starve
to death If you ventured across the
boundaries of your own State with
your pockets filled with its currency.
In Great Britain it was expected
that the ridiculous Yankee democ-
racy" would fall apart of its own
clumsiness and that the Colonies
would come crawling back to the
crown Of their own volition.
Massachusetts, judges were dragged
from their court rooms and thrown
into Jail because they had filled
debtors prisons with folks who
couldn't pay their taxes.
Finally q constitutional convention
was held, with George Washington
presiding. In the film this part is
played by Claude King, selected be-
cause of his astonishing resemblance
to the Nations first President. He
looks just like the engraving on a 81
bill Benjamin Franklin was there,
81 years old. The conclave dragged

others throats most of the time.
When things got too hot, it seems.
Washington adjourned the body for a

New Jersey wanted equality Of rep

Connecticut fought for one legislative
branch, not two. Election of the

election by the Legislatures of the

I'D you know that each State
in the Union printed it's own
- Of Independence?
Or that 5000 British troops were
garrisoned along the Great Lakes
many years later?
Or that George Washington was at
one time determined to establish an
independent State in the West on the
Missouri or Mississippi?
Or that Benjamin Franklin tried to
revive dead animals with mild elec-
trio shocks?
All of these lost historical facts were
unearthed in research work done in
connection with the filming of the
Servant Of the People" short sub
ject made by M.-G.-M. dramatizing
the turbulent times just before and
after the forming of the Constitution.
No end of pains were taken to have
every detail reeking with accuracy. ac-
cording to Prof. Brainerd Dyer Of the
University of California at Los An
geles, who declares that historians now
look to the research departments OF
Hollywood motion picture studios to
bring forth facts veiled in doubt. He
acted as technical director for the pic
ture. For example, it was discovered
that Gouverneur Morris, often depict
ed with two limbs, had a wooden leg
in 1887.
Viewing this 18-minute picture, now
playing in Washington, one is struck
with the fact that the silver screen is
a powerful educational agent. Those
of us whose grammar school history
is vague will find that, in the picture
long-dead heroes come alive again in
celluloid.
Asked about the Constitution of
hand, the man on the street remem-
bers recent excitement about the an
cient document, but has no notion OF
the problems of the men who drew
1t up, makers Of the picture declare.

together into one nation, using only a
sheet of parchment and a quill pen?
James Madison, one of the members OF
the Constitutional Convention that
met in Philadelphia in 1887 read every
known constitution the world had pro-
duced.
THE picture shows Colonial Ameri-
cans moving home from the Revo-
lutionary War, believing that all their
problems had been solved by gunpow-
der. But 1t wasn't long before the
close union under which they had
fought was forgotten and all States
were quarreling among themselves.

AS result of these limitations, it
is now expected thai Governor FIoey
will reappoint at least six Of the pre-
sent eleven members of tne State
School Commission, possibly even
more, so that there still be major

Governor Hoey regards several men,

Hoey to appoint virtually a new COM

pointment of G. D. Douglas, director
of finance in the State Department
of Public Instruction, as executive
secretary to succeed Griffin. 1t is be-

full support and consent of State Su-

agree to the death of the one found
guilty. To their utter CONSERVATION

proposed selling Joseph, becomes the
spokesman in behalf of Benjamin.
And what a plea he makes! He re-
minds Joseph of their word on their
former visit: 1.-THE lad cannot leave
his father: for if he should leave his
father, his father would die" He tells
how reluctantly their father had per-
mitted Benjamin to come, and how
he had personally become surety for
his safe return, and finally, he offers
himself for slavery to ransom Ben
jamin. Let thy servant, I pray thee,
abide instead Of the lad, a bondman
to my lord: and let the lad go up with
his brethren" This was enough! The
very brother who proposed that Jo-

fore is now willing to die in slavery
to ransom his brother. Divine grace
