UNCLE RAYS CORNER

A Belgian monk played part in
exploring the Great Lakes region of
North America. He lived in the
time of La Sale, and his name was
Louis Hennepin.
Hennepin was active in church
work in Belgium, but he heard tales
of the New World and wanted very
much to go there. So in 1875. at
the age of about 35, he sailed across
the Atlantic.
Landing in Quebec, he soon began
to preach to the Indians. He learned
their language and converted some
OF them to the Christian faith.
Three years after he reached
Quebec, Hennepin Joined a party La
Sale was leading toward the West.
The purpose of the trip was to reach
places where white men had not
been before.
Hennepin was placed in charge of
several men who were sent ahead of
the others. They were told to pitch
camp above Niagara Falls and to
build boat which could be used in
sailing across Lake Erie.
Although other white explorers
had been in the Niagara region
before Hennepin, he seems to have
oeen the first to make a drawing of
the mighty falls. This drawing
later was published in a book

West opened the deuce of spades
and East won with the ace and re-
turned the spade ten. South was
tempted to finesse the jack, but
thought it over first. Vests lead
was either a singleton, fourth best
= or third-best from the queen. 1t
was not likely to be a singleton,
since in that case East might have
rebid the seven-card suit; or per-
haps West might have found more
promising lead. 1t was not likely
to be fourth-best, since East was
too careful a player to make vul-
nerable overcall on a four card
suit. South therefore inferred the
actual situation and properly put
up the spade king instead of finess-
ing the jack.
South next finessed the hearts
and East took his queen, but found
that his partners spade queen
blocked the suit. A spade lead was
taken by West, but now he had no
way of returning to his partners s
hand. He made an attempt by lead
ing a diamond, but South won and
ran the hearts. A finesse of the
club nine then went to Vests
queen, and a later finesse of the
club jack gave South his ninth trick.
South would have lost his con-
tract, of course, if he had finessed
the jack of spades at the second
trick. West would have taken the
trick with the spade queen and re-
turned the suit, forcing out South's
only stopper. Sooner or later, East
would get in with the heart queen
to run the spades and defeat the
contract.

Monk Drew First Niagara Falls Picture

Hennepin went above the falls,
and helped build the sailing vessel
which was used to cross Lake Erie.
The party at length reached the
present State of Illinois, and fol-
lowed the course of the Illinois
River. La Sale ordered a fort set
up near the site of the present city
of Peoria.
Later Hennepin led a party which
explored the upper parts of the
Mississippi. He and his companions
were the first whites to discover the
Falls of st. Anthony. Hennepin was
captured by band of Sioux
Indians. After several months as
a prisoner, he was allowed to leave
the tribe and make his way back to
Quebec. After a short stay in the
colony, he returned to Europe, and
wrote books about his adventures.

great humanitarian, Anthony Joseph
Biddle, Jr., whose list of clubs is even
longer than that of Jimmy Roosevelt.
We suppose the fact that he and his
wife contributed some $685. 200 to the
Roosevelt campaign fund in the last
five years had nothing whatever to
do with his appointment as Ambassa-
dor to Poland. Oh, No, indeed.
And, of course, we should not for
get such lovers and saviors of human
ity as Mayor Edward ]. Kelly of
Chicago, whose sewer superintendent
perpetrated the microphone hoax
which set-off the "we want Roosevelt"
demonstration at the Chicago Conven-
ton. Leader of as smelly political
machine as the country has ever wit
messed, Mayor Kelly has demonstrated
his interest in dollars.
Yet it is hard in this respect to dis
tinguish between Mayor Kelly and his

Having forced his denomination for
a third term, President Roosevelt ap-
parently now proposes to stoop to
smear tactics against those Democrats
whose fealty to the country's tradi-
tons prevents them from abjectly
bowing to his will.
Just as the Presidents New Deal
cohorts at the Chicago Convention
booed the venerable Senator Carter
Glass when he quoted Thomas Jeffer-
son against a third term and just as
they jeered Representative Elmer J.
Ryan of Minnesota, when he recalled
the partys denunciation of third
term in 1896, so now Mr.. Roosevelt
slurs Democrats who dare oppose
him.
When Louis Douglas, former Di-
rector of the Budget in the Roosevelt
Administration, and John w. Hanes,
former Under Secretary of the Treas
ury in the Roosevelt Administration,

kie, Mr.. Roosevelt asserted their minds
ran "more to dollars than to human
ity."

ignored the fact that only last De-
cember when Mr.. Hanes left the
Treasury, he received from the Pres
ident "Dear Johnnie" letter prais-
ing him for his record of good WORK
done at personal sacrifice, for which
you should be honored." !

Gratis who refuse to goose-step to his
ambition for perpetuation in office. 1t
is fair question to ask how many of
Mr.. Roosevelt's associates and appoin-
tees to office are more interested in
"'dollars than humanity"
For instance, is young Jimmie
Roosevelt "more interested in dol
lars than humanity?" If this son of
the President ever made a contribution
to humanity, we have yet to hear
about it. At the ripe old age of 80
years, he now tells the press that look
ing after his investments occupies
most of his time. From whence did
these investments come?

JIMMY ROOSEVELT'S
CLUBS

Pretty good, it must be said for a
young man who funked his examina-
tions at Harvard and spent only one
year in law school. President Roose-
welt once said something about "gen-
tlemen who sat in well-stocked clubs"
In passing, it might be noted that 32-
year old Jimmy in Who's Who in
America lists himself as a member
of the Harvard Club; the Bankers
Club of New York; the Jefferson Is
land Club; the Eastern Yacht Club,
and the University Club; the Metro
politan Club and the Burning Tree
Club, the last three of Washington.
What about some of Mr.. Roosevelts
appointments to office? Did Mr..
Roosevelt appoint James Cromwell,
husband Of Doris Duke, the richest cir!
in the world, as minister to Canada
because of this playboy's "interest IN
humanity?" Or did he give him this
diplomatic post because his wife
sweetened the Democratic kitty in
the 1886 campaign to the tune Of
$4,000?
Will someone please enlighten us as
to exactly what contribution playboy
William c. Bullitt, Ambassador to
France, ever made to humanity? i?
But he certainly has the dollars, be-
cause he has generously dropped them
into the Roosevelt campaign war
chests.
