eHoroscobe
The stars incline
but do not compel"
FRIDAY, AUGUST 10, 1899

| FfL1DfA L hOoOhOI 10, 1909
Uncertainties and lack of fore.
sight may affect business men un.
der this configuration, according tt
astrology. Adverse aspects rule I'M
til late in the afternoon.
Good news for the United State!
may be expected this evening. The
radio may announce a great honor
for the nation which will continue
as foremost of world powers.
Unwelcome immigrants may bt
received through governmental poll
cies that will cause criticism, bu
the talents of refugees will bring
great benefits to our nation.
This is not a favorable rule under
which to make new friends. Secret
agents may be numerous in factor
les and places of business.
Saturn will be in the seventh
house of the nations horoscope, ar
open of acute troubles in foreign
lands and a portent of war in Eu-
rope.
Perils from within are forecast fol
the United States. Many organiza-
tons, secret as well as public, viii
evolve independent policies that viii
clash with the principles of de-
mocracy.
This year and next are believed tc
be affected by sinister aspects. Ac-
ton to make the Panama Canal in
vulnerable is advocated by the
seers.
Our certain war with Germany is
trade war for South American
commerce, and warning is given
that secret pacts may cause the
United States heavy losses.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of average good
fortune 1t is wise for both men and
women to be reticent regarding per-
sonal matters.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be gentle, ambitions and in
telligent. These subjects of Leo like
to dress we'll and may be extrava-
CANT. They are generally fortunate
all through life.

THE OTHER SIDE
The House passed the bill late in
the session but opposition in the
Senate foreign relations committee
held up the legislation until the
final hours of the session. BY the
time it was released from the COM
mittee, it was too late. Four Re-
publican members, Borah of Idaho.
johnson of California, White of
Maine and vandenberg of Michi-
gan, said the bill would do far more
harm than good.
Instead of promoting hemisphere
cal good feeling, they said, it would
breed discord and rivalry in Latin
America. If the U. S. agreed to
build ship or two for one South
American country, they said, all
others would get panicky. After all.
the balance of power in South Am
erica is almost as delicate as in
Europe.
ruI iieI, Uney argued, there Is
genuine dislike in America for
putting the U. S. in the munitions
business.
THE U. S. shouldn't be buck
STEERING military weapons and battle
ships to our neighbors to the south, y
said johnson.
The Army, Navy and State De-
partments answered that the coun-
tries can already buy whatever they
wish abroad, so discord would not
result just because they bought Am
erican.
The thing will come up again
next session and probably will
skid through like a wet duck.

Greenlond-the First American Republic

American Republic
 WITH a flair for bold schemes
 " and the rare ability to carry them out, Eric the Red discov- cred Greenland 1057 years ago. At least no other explorer had touched its shores and come back with the story. Eric, as a matter of fact, had no exact knowledge of the island when he started out His daring conception, however, spurred him on and at last he arrived at Greenland in 982 or early in 983.
 He landed on the west coast, close to the present Danish colony of Julianehaab. As it turned out, it was one of history's most sig nificant events for Eric the Red not only explored, he established the first American republic!
 This is the story. Hardly had Eric landed when he built barns, cut hay for the cattle he carried and founded the dairy industry which even today is important. Next, Eric made sweeping ex- plorations of interior Greenland over period of three years.
 Then he returned to Iceland, proceeded to "sell" his story of the rich new land he had found. The result: he was able to take some 700 colonists back to Green- land with him in 986, the largest colony ever established up to then in the New World.
 And soon after these co1onists, under Fries superb direction, es- tablished republic with a parlia- ment. It was to last until 1261 when Greenland voluntarily be- came province of Norway. Mean while, however, it had become Americas first republic.
 Recently, Greenland issued its first stamps, seven values. One, which pictures King Christian x of Denmark, is shown above.

But now I find that you simply want to be insured against loss. Well, that settles it." She made a move to get up. I'm going off and get engaged to either Ronald or Wilfrid right now"
