So long before sunup he was on
his merry way.
Got a piece o goods here for
Sim Brewer?" he asked Ed VAN
bold, the station agent, at 1870
on the dot.
"Say! Have II Fanciest hunk o.
wood and leather you ever laid
your eyes on, Lon. Come and look"
Lon came and looked and ex-
claimed, "Well, II swan, doggone
if Sim amt gettin' pretty doggone
hifalutin'. Say. Ed, if I had to
set in a thing like that I'd-dog-
gone it. I'd buy a new suit O.
clothes sure as there's molasses
in January. But it's pretty, amt
it? Pretty as red bird settin' on
a yellow egg"
The object Of their admiration
was indeed worthy of it. It was
a huge, deep, thickly upholstered
chair made Of the finest leather
and decorated by bangles and
spangles on it's carved arms and
legs, the gift of the board of di-
rectors in honor of President Sim
Brewers twenty-fifth anniversary
as head of the bank.
We'll hafta be mighty keerful
O. this thing" Lon decreed, SOS
to be sure it gets to Sim without
hein' battered any. Come on, now,
Ed, lend me a hand and we'll get
her aboard"
PROUD OF CARGO
Sim never felt prouder of q
cargo. He climbed up to his high
throne, took the reins in his hands,
and clucked gently to Tom and
jerry. His flip of the reins told
the horses, "easy, now" Up Front
Street he felt eyes on him, and
his own eyes strayed ever to the
beautiful thing that he was haul
ing to its destination.
Up to the corner of Front and
Pine he numbered, and then
turned for the final block at Sec
ond Street where the gray stone
home Of the City Savings Bank
stood, its very architecture a prom
Use OF solidity and safety. It was
a quiet, hot noon downtown. A
Friday, always a quiet day, the
lull before the storm of SATURDAYS
trading.
Ben Hessig, the clothing mer-
chant, hailed him with "Oh,
Lon, what you got dere?" Lon
answered, Better come and have
a look, Ben, it's somthin' mighty
pretty" He paused to let Mr..
Hessig admire his precious freight
which Mr. Hessig did with enthu-
siasm. ut ought to be pretty" he
remarked, "it cost us directors of
the bank yet three hundred and
fifty dollar. I should say it ought
to be more than pretty, it ought to
be beautiful"
II say it is beautiful, Lon in
sisted. Mr.. Hessig wasn't so sure.
And as they argued an automobile
passed them with some men in it.
One of them called to Lon to
move his damn wagon out of the
way. Lon clucked to the horses
because it was just about noon
and Mr.. Brewer would be getting
impatient.

An attack on Secretary of State
Hulrs expression of horror" over
the deaths of civilians in war-torn
Spain and complete silence" on
the Staying of thousands of priests

was the topic of conversation in
church and diplomatic circles to
day.
The criticism of the Secretary's

ence. Describing Secretary Hull's
speech as sincere" and "reitera.
tion Of this country's honorable
position in respect to the humane
prosecution of war" Mgr. Ready
nevertheless pointed out:
''These killings of priests and
others had back of them not the
attempted justification of mill
tary exigencies; they were sim
ply based on the victims being
religious.
Nor did Mr.. Hull feel called
upon to express horror when,
nearer at home-in Mexico
civilians and religious were
killed in the course of a vicious
religious persecution, which still
persists"

New Tree Program
Urqed for CCC

WASHINGTON, Dec. %. (UP)-
The department of agriculture to-
day recommended that the Civilian
Conservation corps in future years
plant trees on 100000 acres oi
waste land.
The department limited in its an
nual report that it would like to
be the beneficiary of expanded
activities of the CCC which oper-
ates under supervision of the agri-
culture, labor, interior and war de-
partments.
Now after five years of CCC
activity. it is believed that the time
is ripe to reorient somewhat as to
What constitutes conservation of Our
natural resources" the report stat
ed. 1T is believed there is need
to draw in the boundary line OF
conservation: they may have been
pushed too far afield. Public serv-
ice work which will need mini
mum of future maintenance seems
one safe and sane yardstick.

year-old grandmother who lives
with her in tiny cabin near this
small mining town, said she was
more nervous than Bertha because
of the everlasting bouncing that
has kept her and Bertha awake
nights since Nov. 16 and left them
with aching backs and headaches.
Bertha, who reports the bounc-
ing begins when the oil lamps are
lighted at dusk, said it started
with a scratching noise at the head
of the bed. The bed bounces light
ly, she said and then violently.
Whether she tries to sleep in the
bed with springs or the solid one"
or in a chair or on the pinewood
floor, the bouncing continues to
fret her.
Sybert told the crowd that only
once has Bertha had relief. That
was on a night two weeks ago
when the family put Bible under
her head.
Minor, who reported earlier that
a chair on which Bertha tried to
curl up and sleep had walked
around the room with her, said
that Robert is tellin' the truth.
We thought Bertha would be safe
over at my house but she weren't
DR.. Axel Brett and DR.. George
Hastlerud, professor of philosophy
and psychology at the University
of Tennessee at Knoxville, visited
the Syberts home today and start
ed a thorough investigation of the
bed bouncing. DR.. Brett said that
"its really peculiar and there is
something, but I have no comment
until the investigation is COM
pleted"

Prison Term Faces
Ex-UCLA0 Official

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 90. CUP)-
A term of 2 to % years in San
Quentin prison was ahead today
for an accountant who stole $27 900
in students funds at the University
of California at Los Angeles to
pay his horserace betting debts.
The plea of Earl S. Richardson,
who was office manager for the
student body, that he be given pro-
baton on four counts of forgery
and grand theft was denied by
Judge Clarence Kincaid.

Garner Man Gets
Job of Directing
Huue Relief Setup
(Continled from paoe b


job. Harrington was the man favor
ed by Garner and other Democrats
who oppose the New Deal.
Harrington, a regular army off,
Ger who has been serving as chief
WPA engineer, was designated
rather than nominated as the new
relief chief. 1t was suggested that
he would continue to draw army
pay and would not require senate
confirmation.
Presidential Secretary Stephen T.
Early announced Harrington would
not require senate confirmation as
acting WPA administrator.
The announcement was made at
the White House today slightly
more than u hours before Secre-
tary Daniel c. Roper will retire
from the commerce department. He
resigned TO attend to private busi-
ness. His departure, however, is OF
greater significance.
The so-called left wing of the
New Deal long has considered Rop-
er among its potential if not eX-
tremely effective obstacles and
there has been pressure upon Mr.
Roosevelt to get rid of him. Hop
kins' elevation to the cabinet mere
ly ratifies his position in the front
rank of New Deal councils. He
long has attended cabinet meet,
ings and rates as one of Mr.. Roose-
velt's closest political advisers.
It was Hopkins who tossed out
the first ball in the New Deals
spectacularly ineffective effort to
''purge" conservative Democrats in
the 1888 primaries.
The test of Mr. Roosevelt'S lat
est strategy will come shortly after
congress convenes Jan. 3. Hopkins
will have to be confirmed in his
new position. The evidence that
his elevation to the cabinet was
carried out with the knowledge
and consent of Vice President Gar
ner and other Democratic conser-
vatives is judged here to mean
that the presidents choice will be
approved.
