THE HUMAN ELEMENT

Every Americans favorite topic of conversation is conditions" They either good or bad, depend- ing on how they happen to effect him personally. But at the same time cause of the conditions in variaby is placed against some other condition In politics it is without exception the other party But it is the human element which goes into the making Secretary of Commerce brought it out rather well
 for the general scheme of things in his address on Democracy and American Progress
 The success of democracy in safely guiding the destiny of Nation will always hinge the propor
 ton of stress it places the importance of the human element" MT Roper said Mindful of this obligation the progressive leadership of the Democratic party must address itself to the unsoved problems It must determine what lies ahead in the way of progressive service to the American people that challenges the liberal spirit of democracy and makes it necessary for the Congress to be composed of liberal thinking and liberal acting representatives of the people.
 Among the problems that now challenge the Nation for solution are: CD More efficient and distribution of goods and services to enable the people to enjoy reasonable standard of living; (2) increased employment through encourage of production and provision for the of the remaining unemployed in constructive manner with consideration plan for sharing the responsi blity with local subdivisions of government; t3) population, involving clearer understanding of the mutual problems between city and rural life and pro- tecting the cities against excess congestion with it's tendency to prompt human erosion; (4) better balance of the national economy, involving more scientifically relating production in farm and factory to domestic and foreign requirements"

TEMPORARY DELAY IN STARTING
 SMALL BOAT HARBOR

a-y delay in starting work on Juneaus small ooat harbor is indicated in word from Seattle that awarding of the contract for the breakwater fill has been held up due to the wide range between the low bidder and the engineers estimate. Accord ing to the report the Puget Sound Bridge and Dredg- ing Company was low bidder with an offer to make the fill at 54 cents per yard. The Army engineers who have charge of the project, had estimated the cos at 40 cents per yard. The result so far is no award
 Just what course will be followed remains to be seen. Contractors here familiar with government procedure say that the usual method is to re-esmate the project and call for bids If this is done it probably will be several months before actual work will be started here It may well be in the spring as with winter coming on the weather will not be particularly favorable for working the project
 However, while temporary delay confronts the undertaking at this time Juneau need not feel dis appointed as the small boat harbor could not be put into service before next year at best and the delay coming at this time of the year probably will have only small effect in the end getting the basin ready for boats
 In the meantime the city's application to PWA may get favorable action so that the citys part of the work can get underway nearly as the War Departments portion

Only an nfntesimal part of it is stopped by the discs of the planets. The rest goes and on into infinity. Our share of that heat compareu with the total is so small that it is hard to find fraction minute enough to represent it. If all the heat of the could be focused upon the earth we would be dissolved into incandescent gas in the tWinking of an eye.
 Scientists still discussing theories regarding the of the suns heat. That is of the great mysteries which have not yet solved It cannot come from ordinary combustion as we know it. for combustion in the end dead ashes Nor can it come from heat generated by compression that is the shrinking of the suns mass In some way the apparently replenshes it sources of energy For ever it is throwing off heat and yet it grows no colder The most modern theory is that the splitting up of atoms does the trick. At all events we have no cause to worry. Since made his appearance the sun has warmed him. has made the earth fruitful and there has been the regular succession of the sons.
 When the sun crosses the Equator summer with us is definitely past. Autumn is here That is the time of shortening days and cooler nights.

Offer Operetta.

STUDENTS of Montgomery Blail
Senior High School of Silver
Spring, Md, will present an original
full-length operetta on the nights OF
Thursday and Saturday. at pm, at
the high school auditorium.
Composed by the students, the most
difficult part of Crossed Beaux," as
the production is called. is the musical
score and lyrics. Music classes and
students under the supervision of
Verna Metcalfe, music instructor. have
written over 35 original melodies which
comprise the musical part of the op-
eretta. An interesting sidelight is the
fact that some students with no pre-
vious musical training have written
some Of the best lyrics of Crossed
Beaux," and many pupils who never
had any idea that they could compose
have written songs of unusual merit.
Nearly 300 students have assisted.
The plot was originated by a senior
student, Bruce Stedman, and as early
as September groups interested in
the project began working out the
parts-music, English and dialogue,
scenery and making costumes. So large
is the cast that it was necessary to
enlarge the stage il the auditorium in
order to provide for the elaborate set
ting and scenery.
