IT'S AMERICAS GREAT CHARTER TOO

1az There are three outstanding documents in Amer-
can history The first two the Declaration of indie
pendence and the Constitution of the United States,
drafted in the final quarter of the 18th century
The third drawn up in what is English
park long before there any American history 1t
is Of course the Magma Carta which is the foun-
dation Of all our liberties.
Magma Carta was signed and sealed in 1915 by
John by the grace of God King of England, Lord of
Ireland Duke of Normandy and Aqutaine"
The grim barons at Runnymede who waited for
pommels Of their swords may indeed, have accepted
John as King BY the grace of God. But they knew
him for double dealing despot and determined
that he should rule only by the of the nation
The long list of royal rascalties they required him to
frenounce included this famous clause: ITO no one
will sell to no one VIII we refuse or delay right
justice
equal justice has inspired the Anglo-Saxon world
wherever it extended the earth. Again and again
il denied but never for long, and when it was
kings and Governments fell. Charles lost his head
and George III his colonies because of Magma Carta

fairest of the four copies still extant is in New
York City. 1t is the central treasure of the British
Pavilion at the Worlds Fair 1t is much heri-
taee as Britains and it is fitting that should have
been transported to the Fair by an American guard

foliage rooted in this ancient bill of rights.

Just word about the weather.
It's been wonderful lately as you've all noticed.
Part of the credit is claimed by the Empire but the
largest share goes to Juneaus good friends in the

Taking an Empire editorial, which appeared last
week. very much to heart, Meteorologist Howard
Thompson and his staff managed to up enough
sunny weather to give Juneau clear skies all during
The Rotary conference and to stretch the spring heat

nodating especially in these days when they beine
criticised for everything from having lost touch with

Adverse planetary aspects appea
to dominate today, according to as
trology. In the world of business
there may be a tendency TOWARD
procrastination in launching i'm
portant projects.
! The seers emphasize the impor'
lance of employing a Spartan phil
osophy that ignores danger. They
quote the old saying that 1.-The best

! possible.
Uranus is in an aspect inclinins
men to indulge IN criticism anc
discomfort. Propaganda, secret and
public, may be disquieting to the
average mind. Thinking should be
safeguarded against evil suggestion
In the morning hours women are
subject to a sign that presages much
public work. While the mothers ano
wives of Americans will continue
efforts to prevent the spread o.
war, they will serve the nation in
many lines of work.
Lovers should benefit while this
configuration continues. The stars
encourage speedy courtship and
hasty marriage.
Actors and actresses should pro-
fit under this planetary government
which promises success in many lit
tie theaters through the summer
season. The stage will capture in
creased public interest.
This is an suspicious shopping
date. Feminine interest in attire
will be intensified as opportunities
to display the latest modes increase
through the summer months.
National expositions will exert an
immense power over the American
public which will respond as never
before to instructive and education
al exhibits.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of progress, but
they should be wary of new friends.
Journeys may not be lucky.

ably will be vigorous and active, fond
