Of it for Senator Pope whose chief
claim to fame seems to be that he
fathered the agricultural act of 1888
and nobody knows yet how to
make the law work. Clark's record
is regarded by many colleagues
in the house as proving him to be a
Democrat of the liberal type, for
he has supported the President on
numerous occasions while voting
against White House dictation when
he felt that he should do so.
The New Dealers have persuaded
Governor Johnston of South Caro-

sumption that the governor was per-
suaded to enter the race.
There is a fight on in another
southern state also. Sen. Walter F.
George has opposition for the Demo-
cratic nomination. Lawrence Camp,
United States attorney at Atlanta
and a Roosevelt appointee, has filed
for the nomination against Senator
George. The understanding in Wash
ington is that the New Dealers set
tied on Camp when they found that
Governor Rivers of Georgia could
not enter the fight because he was
vulnerable on several points. Sena-
tor George, one of the ablest con-
stitutional lawyers in the senate and
long highly regarded in that body,
apparently has hard fight because
OF the likelihood of a divided vote.
There are several other candidates
in the field and it has been sug-
gested that the vote may be so
divided as to bring about defeat of

TRY HIS WAY

they junked His plan and
went pretty much as we are
running it now, on an "every
fellow for himself" basis.
Look what happened to those
nations that turned their
backs on the Golden Rule.
They crumbled and persisted.
And history still has a way
of repeating itself.
When men lose sight of
the welfare of their country
in a selfish grab for political
power; when men lay aside
the Golden Rule and adopt
instead the 5 as a yardstick
for measuring the way to
human betterment, then the
suggestion of the Georgia
editor becomes not only
worth thinking about but
worthy of a trial. Get men
back to the old-time methods
of dealing honestly with
their fellowmen and many of
the problems now besetting
the land will solve them
selves. Most of them origi-
nate from a spirit of greed,

POLITICS DOWN ON THE FARM

This is true of all other
agricultural states, as well as
New York. And wide-awake
farmers, whether they deal
in milk, fruit, vegetables,
stock or anything else, are
placing less trust in political
panaceas and more trust in
their own efforts and their

izations. God helps those
who help themselves" is as
applicable to farming as to
any other enterprise. The
politicians who manifest so
great a concern for agricul-
ture at election time have
shown their true colors too
often in the past to make it
safe to trust them too far
in the future.

THE SAFETY MOVEMENT GOES FORWARD

Education during the 1889
academic year.
The motives underlying
the new center were ex-
planned by the National Con-
servation Bureau, which
pointed out that the stock
casualty companies have been
active since 1922 in the child
safety education movement.
It is now felt that a major
part of the promotional
phase of this movement has
been completed and that the
kind of aid required by edu-
Gators has changed. Safety
work is well established in
the nations schools, with the
result that the primary need
is for persons adequately
trained to teach safe prac-
tees both to young people
and to teachers colleges. And
although the center has been
planned principally for the
education of teachers, the
work will be conducted over
a wider front in order to
serve all types of personnel
concerned with safe driving.

MUSEUM OFFERS
VALENTINE EXHIBIT.
Jonathan King Collection
Placed on Display in
London.
BY JOAN LITTLEFIELD.

LONDON, Jan. l (N.ANA). Dur
ing the post-Christmas party season,
while romance is in the air, the Lon
don Museum has on exhibition the
finest collection of valentines in the
world. Once the property of Jonathan
King OF Islington. who himself made
valentines by the thousand. they have
been presented to the musuem by his
son.
1t is said that valentines are diving
out, though each year a number of
young moderns, or their sentimental
elders, take the trouble on February
IA to send card which will tell their
love in f1oWery language of their un-
dying affection. During the nine
teenth century, the period covered by
this exhibition, however. the valen-
tine was at its zenith and young man
would sometimes spend as much as
s75 on a creation of gauze and card
board to send to his beloved.
Jonathan Kings Elaborate.
Probably the most elaborate valen-
tine OF all was made by Jonathan King
in his courting days, and then rejected
because it was not elaborate enough.
1t is the size of a chocolate box and
opens up in layers to reveal the most
complicated designs Of flowers and fall
lals around such notices as CON
stancy' and affection"
In the 1820s valentines were not
so sentimental as later in the century.
There is one, printed at York in 1920.
showing a sailor meeting his fiancee
and greeting her with the words:
Nov my dear Poll, I'm landed again,
And Sinners great plenty has got.
Let us join Hand and Heart. never to
part,
But share forever our lot"
Tulip Valentine Theme.
A young man in 1870 courted his
love with these words, set in the heart
OF cardboard tulip:
"As the flower seeks the sun.
For thy smile I yearn.
Wilt thou not, dearest one,
My ardent love return?"
Later valentines became quite wag-
gish. There is one, printed in 1895,
OF man initiating bicycle tire. with
the inscription, Blow me tight, I
loves yer true; and another with the
words. Il send you this to show you I
am all ready for" followed by the
letter M and picture Of a pair Of
braces.
