TIME AFTER NINE
YEAR-OLD FRIENDSHIP

Two girls, brought together on
the common ground Of Girl
Scouting, intimate only through
the U. 8. mails, met face to face
for the first time in st. Cloud
Saturday.
A nine-year-old friendship, car
ried through the years by cor
respondence, brought Mary
Markson, of this city, and Jean
Borchers, Chicago, together last
week. For the two the only
means of identifying each other
were pictures sent with letters.
It all came about some years
ago when Mary was in high
school. jeans picture appeared
in the newspapers naming the
Chicago girl as most typical Girl
Scout from the Chicago area. In
terested in Girl Scouting, Mary
obtained the girls address thru
headquarters, wrote to her. Miss
Borchers' answer started a long
line of letters that have passed
between Sank Centre and Chica-
go during the intervening years.
Last week Miss Borchers at.

they talked for hours. ut wasn't

SINCLAIR LEWIS DUCKS
LEAD ROLE IN Play

An Associated Press dispatch
from Saratoga Springs, N. T.,
dated August 10th, says that Sim
clair Lewis, famous Sank Centre
author, and Nobel prize winner,
has decided that so far as rom
antic stage roles for him are
concerned, "it can't happen
here"
Recently it was announced
that Author Lewis, who some
time ago played the lead role,
the country editor, in the dra-
matization of his novel, "It
Can't Happen Here" would ap-
pear opposite Fay Wray, movie
actress, in There's Always Jul
let"
after thinking it over, he ap-
parently got cold feet, and said
it can't happen here, Harold
Winston, director Of the Sara
toga SPA players, reported re-
gretfully.
Sinclair Lewis was unavailab-
lie for comment. His role will be
taken by Alexander Clark.
The authors appearance in
the play, undoubtedly would
have been a natural as a box Of
flee feature. He made a success
of his first appearancea recently
in the lead role in his own play.

F. j. Rooney, Crop
Insurance Supervisor,

Recently additional supplies of
liquid sodium arsenite, bran and
sawdust were secured in the coun-
ty to take care of any needs In var

ers are making applications daily
to be insured with this new ma
tional program. Under the plan, in

So far every farmer who has gone
in on the program has taken Is

of coverage the premium varies
from about Z to IA bushels per
acre depending on the history OF
the past wheat productions on that
particular farm. After the appli-

serious matter, particularly in time Of

In disaster.
The answer to the problem is known

legal and technical difficulties about
applying 1t under the present radio act.
There are two ways for correction, it

machines shielded, which is held to be
prohibitive, for every room in hospital
in which it might ever be necessary to
use them must be shielded. The other,
simple way, is to assign definite fire.
quencies to the machines. This, it is
said, could well be done without inter-
fering with the other uses to- which the
radio bands are put. But the commis-
sion questions its authority to assign
these frequencies under the law.
Additional legislation is held to be
necessary. This being so, it is the mani
fest duty Of the commission not merely
to report the facts to Congress but to
press for the passage of remedial legis-
lation at the earliest possible moment.

Plaster Peril.

Danger turks overhead in many of the
old school buildings and the proposal OF
the Board of Education that immediate
inspection be made of the buildings to
protect the children from injury due to
falling plaster deserves strong second
from the community.
Large slabs of ceiling have collapsed in
several schools and number of persons
were injured when the ceiling fell at the
conclusion of commencement exercises
at colored senior high school last June.
That others have not been hurt is for
tunate.
Any who saw the large slab of plaster
ing exhibited to the Board of Education
the other day by Superintendent Of
Schools Frank w. Ballou would appre-
ciate keenly the danger that exists in
the old buildings where deterioration has
set in. 1t was a heavy, ugly missile,
capable of causing painful injury. I'M
mediate inspection of potential danger
spots should certainly be made.

THE FINALITY OF JESUS
BY THE RIGHT REV. JAMES E. FREEMAN D. d. Ii. D. D. c. L.
BISHOP OF WASHINGTON

Jesus declared with . finality that
characterized His teaching, 1T was said
by them Of old time, but say unto you"
This statement was thrice repeated and
with increasing insistence each time. He
was referring directly to the ancient laws
of His people, the legalistic prescriptions
that concerned their course IN given situ-
ations. He was attacking those who
prided themselves on their strict obedi-
ence to the letter Of the law, but who
were wantonly Indifferent to its spirit.
He was making it clearly evident that
while He had not come to destroy the
law of the prophets, He was insisting
that there was . higher law governing
human relations, and that Righteousness
did not consist in q superficial observance
Of the ancient law.
The major part of the teachings OF
Jesus has to do with right human rela-
tions. He persistently inveighed against
religious practices wholly unrelated to
conduct. That He laid down q social
program Is clearly evident.
A modern distinguished English writer,
Plowright. has given us a startling book
entitled Rebel Religion" in which he
sets forth clearly the radicalism OF the
teachings of Jesus. His teachings were
radical in that they ran counter not alone
to the expressed religious faith Of His
time, but to the practical application of
that faith to all matters that concerned
right human relations. John Macmur-
ray, writing an introduction to this sug-
gestive book, says: Our religion was,
from the first, rebel religion, standing
firmly against the whole structure of
worldly life and consistently prosecuted
in consequence. Our first impulse as the
practical significance OF our religion pro-
ceeds Is to reafirm the Christian rebel

out over the Russian Ukraine region, with
its wheat and its cotton lands.
The British seem to figure that If Ger
many can be satisfied with access to
territory and raw materials In Eastern
Europe, the way will be opened for a
knock down and drag-out fight between
Fascism and Communism that would give
Britain and France an opportunity later
to dominate the PROSTATE nations that
would emerge from the German and
Russian clash.
But whatever the strategy or reason
ing of European diplomats, State Depart
ment officials here now see that Cordell
Hull's plan for reviving the pre-war in
ternational relationships Is completely
shattered. Trade agreements and cur
rency agreements and democratic
fronts" all fade into comparative unim-
portance, giving way to an enforced iso-
lation.
Isolation, in turn, makes imperative
control in the field of industry and
finance and agriculture. That fact long
has been stressed by Mr.. Hull and by
other understanding individuals who do
not enjoy the prospect of broader New
Deal.

DAYLIGHT Saving.

Daylight-saving time ended this morn
ing throughout the country. and here
after for the remainder of the solar
year the time of day" will be uniform
Washington, which is one Of the very
few communities in this country which
conforms to the standard time system,
will not undergo a change of clocks and
watches and the normal schedule will
be continued.
Each year when this season arrives for
the return to normalcy in time reckoning
the question is asked whether 1t would
not be better to abandon this tinkering
with the timepieces altogether through
out the country. There is really no valid
reason for the shift each season from
normal to artificial time reckoning. It
was started in Europe during the second
year of the Great War, the motive being
to get people to bed and out of bed
an hour earlier in order to save fuel
for lighting and heating. 1t was thus
simply war measure to conserve re-
sources. In England such a scheme had
William Willett, as a sociological reform,
but it had not been adopted to any
extent. In this country the proposition
was finally, after much agitation, enacted
into law by Congress in 1917, to take
effect the following year and was re-
pealed in August, 1919, over presidential
veto. Since then daylight saving has
been solely matter of State and munich
pal regulation. Apart from the period
when the Federal statute governed, the
District of Columbia has not observed
the reform" schedule.
1t is estimated that about $4,000, 900
persons in seventeen States have been
under daylight saving rules this past
summer. But the time map" of the
country as regards the method of reck-
oning the hours of the day, has been a
veritable puzzle. Many conflicts occur
in the timing Of events, many blunders
are made, with consequent losses.
There is no reason beyond custom for
continuing this time measuring system.
No emergency is to be met by shifting
back and forth during part of the year
in the reckoning of the hours. If the
entire country were on the uniform scale
of daylight time" beginning and ending
with the same date definitely and un-
alterably, there might be some excuse for
continuing it. AS it is, the best course is
to let the sun follow its schedule and to
count the hours according to its dictates,
regardless Of the season. There is more
to gain in certainty and uniformity than
there is to lose in longer afternoons and
evenings for the sake of sport and enter
tainment.
