Morgan partner, first came TO
our little town on Jan. Il, 1924,
as a member of the House Of
Representatives from the eighth
district of Kentucky. 1t was
just lovely having him here.
He kept on being reelected
every two years, except once.
He skipped the list Congress
but was back for the I'D.
When the New Deal came in
he enrolled in its junior school
of thought. He was a WELL
behaved pupil, always giving
the right answers. He was not
like those nasty. obstinate brats
who never seem happy unless
they are giving Dean Roosevelt
an argument-and even some
times voting contrary TO his
wishes.

in the House by teacher Roose-
welt and planted in a soft seat
in the Il. S. court of appeals for
the District Of Columbia. That
was on May u. 1888.
In 1912 he was made chief
judge of the u. s. emergency
court of appeals, a tribunal
created 10 handle war cases.
But in the following year he
shed his judicial robes to be-

UPTON CLOSE

ALLIED generals admit that
unconditional surrender
has prolonged the war with Ger
many. In its Casablanca con-
ception. the ultimatum was lit
tie more than a slogan OF
bravado.
1t was TO arouse the allied
peoples TO a sense OF their in
evitable overwhelming triumph,
and to salve the defeats Of the
past.
There is reason to believe
that its proponents considered
il to be mere rabble-rousing
meat.
However, for some reasons,
they have not jettisoned it as
they did the vague, ephemeral,
and impractical scrap of paper
which, for three years and more,
they allowed to be publicized as
a formal document.

Yes. Sir Horace Walpole,

and asked Did they call each

reply. Then" he said, "I shall
soon reconcile them" There is
a lot of truth in this, but I
hardly think il is a real criti-
cism Of women. Nature has so
arranged matters that IL women
did not attract men, mankind
would soon pass out OF exist

women for cherishing their good
looks, we men should egg them
on, and cheer when they pull
each others hair for being
called ugly.
