Peterson as the best spiker ST An

his gifts OF height, weight, agility,
tremendous hitting power and ac-
curacy in discerning the smallest
opening for his bullct-like blows,
he has erected the foundation up
on which st. Antoine predicates its
hopes OF retaining the national
yolleyball championship won last
year in Chicago.
While this praise OF Peterson
had its source in the gymnasium
at st. Antoine. IL spread abroad
during the current season in the
city and state championships. and
developed to full growth during

day.

WHAT THE HOOvERs
DIDN'T Do
(Wallace, Idaho, Miner)

wv OAA1NOs ANcAAOt ~"AAAA~AI
An inspired piece from one of
the new propagandists, says that
Hoover was complete failure"
So he was. He failed in lot of
things.
He failed to draw out his salary
Of $4,000 a year, while he was
president, turning it all back
into the treasury. He failed to
have his sons organize insurance
company firms to write insurance
on government enterprises. He
built a Rapidan resort for fishing
and recreation at his own expense
and gave to to the government.
None of his sons went racing thru
the divorce courts to the disillu-
sionment of the public. He never
bundled up lot of government
documents to sell as a book to the
faithful at a huge profit to him
self and he never sold himself in
to political slavery to a labor or
ganization for a 100000 campaign
fund. He gathered a marvellous
collection of war stuff and built a
museum for it, but failed to ask
congress to pay the bill-he paid
it himself.
He did not preach and promote
class hatred, and he did not try
to pack the supreme court. He
did not plow up every third row
of cotton and he did not promise
the American people one thing
while at the very same moment
doing everything to accomplish the
directly opposite result.
He did not ask congress to as
sess the taxpayers a billion dollars
every time someone shot off fire
cracker in Europe, and he did not
go on fishing trips on government
warships accompanied by a fleet
Of destroyers. Neither did he kill
off the farmers little pigs or en-
courage the importation of Argen-
tine beef in preference to Ameri-
can beef. In fact there were a lot
of foolish things that Hoover
didn't to that some other people
have done. There are a lot of
constructive things he could have
done If he had not had the op-
position Of a democratic congress
but anyway he did not leave the
American people $4O,0O0,0000o0 in
debt.
Mrs. Hoover never made speech
es or raced hither and yon on un-
important matters. She never
wrote silly drivel on her everyday
life and sold it to the newspaper
and she never sold soap over the
radio. Her only public appearance
was as an honorary member Of the
