the darkness of ignorance with the hight OF
truth.
Organized Labor was the first group in
this country to fully recognize the false prop
uganda of both reactionary and radical
groups for exactly what IT is-an attempt at
the domination Of the many by the few, OF
the exploitation Of the majority Tor the bene-
fit of a highly organized minority and 1t
has consistently lifted its voice to denounce
subversive propaganda against democracy.
Rut-WE need to take the next step-tO
nut on a real campaign for propaganda FOk
democracy. 1t is a task for the individual.
Whatever success the comparatively small
numbers of Communists have had stems from
the fact that each is an active propaganda.
Those of us who believe in democracy should
learn a lesson from them. and at all times ana
upon all occasions actively defend. and live
up to our beliefs.
This does not mean a servile acquiescence
to even an elected authority. Criticism OF
government is iustifiable and indeed desir-
able. when there is sincere difference OF opln-
ion regarding public questions. 1t IS tins
freedom enjoyed by the opposition which
saves our country from the attacks of alien
forces and influence. The promoters of Com
munism must constantly have their tongues
in their checks while they take advantage OF
the privilege to say pretty nearly what they
please against our form of government, IN
order to bring about a governmental system
which would deny them this very privilege.
The American form of government is not
only the last stand Of democracy, but the last
stand of Organized Labor-the last stand for
freedom for the individual. And the fight
for it calls for a strong propaganda cam
paign.

than glance, and he can also describe the
mobster who's driving it, down to the mole
on his chin. He insists on getting out of the
car before Dan follows to make the arrests,
because, he says, the sight of mobsters is
very distressing to him, and excitement is
bad for his heart. The next day Big Jake
brings up his average with three more; on
the next he makes an all-time high of four
Coming into the final day of Kitty's
new-hat bet, Dan is as safe to win as the
mechanical rabbit at the dog track. The
score is Dan twelve and Decker four. That
evening Kitty takes Dan to Madame Pou-
pou's Hat Shoppe; they look at the weird
Nightmares on display in the window, and
Kitty decides to take the silliest-looking
one, which resembles lemon pie with
alfalfa growing out of it.
The next day the Inspector sends for
Dan. Il still don't believe it, he says,
but you're the top man of the whole squad
in the stolen-car drive. At this rate, We'll
break up that car -snatching mob for keeps"
Just one mob?" says Dan "Ain't there
two?"
"Well,' says the Inspector, Il guess
was wrong about that, because all the guys
you brought in have been identified as
Rat-a-Tat's mobsters. Now go out and see
if you can find US few more

again. but this time the pickings are very
lean indeed. 1t isn't until five o'clock that
Big Jake makes strike. 1t happens as they
are parked for bit of rest on a side
street. They are behind blue sedan, and
after about minute a guy comes out of
building, gets in the sedan. and drives off
Big Jake says all of sudden, This is
where get off. That blue sedan's stolen"
Are you sure?" says Dan. You've been
staring at that license plate full minute
My Photographic memory slows up bit
in the late afternoon, says Big Jake GO
and make your pinch"
So Dan chases the sedan and catches it.
The guy who's driving looks mild enough,
but he hasn't got an owners certificate with
him, which is reason enough for Dan to
bring him in, although he might have left
it home in his other suit But Dan has so
much confidence in Big Jake, he drives the
car to headquarters and marches the guy
up to the desk.
Another stolen car" he says happily to
the desk sergeant He has the license num-
Der written down in his notebook and he
reads it out. plate number X79-843.'
The sergeant looks at his list.

Il figured it out mrset!'
He gets around to Wuffenburger's restau-
rant as fast as he can and walks past the
window couple of times until he spots Big
Jake inside. He is at corner table eating
goulash and Dan has to wait. But Jake
comes out at last and starts walking Dan
follows, keeping close but out of sight
Big Jake ambles for about mile and
finally ends up at dreary side street build

is now dark. and Dan can get pretty close
without being noticed When he does, he
sees Big Jake sitting on bench on the porch
with couple of other guys
DAN sinks along to the end of the build
ing. The roof of the porch is not high, and
he can climb the corner post. He crawls
along the slanting roof on his hands and
knees. But it is slippery going because just
at this moment the rain starts, and before
he can get to spot where he can hear the
rumble of voices, he is wet to the skin.
He keeps on until he's over the spot where
Big Jake and the others are sitting. The
rain beats on the roof, and he has to lean
over the edge to hear what he wants to hear
There re now several voices all talking at

Vicar Calls for Funds
To Restore Church Bell

NEWINGTON, ENGLAND.-Rev.
A. H. Lance, vicar of Newington,
defied the devil and called for funds
to rebuild the belfry of his 800-year-
old church and get its bells ringing
again.
Traditionally, the devil hates the
bells of Newington. According to
legend, he once visited the parish
and was so disturbed by the bells
that he climbed the belfry, put the
bells in a sack and jumped down.
He landed on a rock which to this
day bears distinct footprints, the
legend says, and departing left a sui
phurous curse to the effect that if
anyone moved that stone no bells
ever would ring in Newington
church again.
During the war, the church road
was widened and the stone was
moved to a churchyard. About the
same time, the church tower fell into
such a bad state that ringing of the
bells was forbidden.
Now the vicar, who was a chap
lain with the royal air force during
the war, is canvassing Newing-
toms 1900 inhabitants for money to
rebuild the belfry.

Cancer Surgery
On Cleveland Told
Two Secret Operations on
President Disclosed
By Surgeon.

ST. LOUIS, MO.-Details of two
secret cancer operations performed
on Pres. Grover Cleveland at a time
when the nation confronted a grave
economic crisis were disclosed here
by DR.. M. c. Seelig. DR.. Seelig was
n of six surgeons who boarded
the yacht of a friend of the Presi'
dents to perform the operations.
Writing in the medical journal,
Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecol-
ogy, he tells how the operations
were performed.
In June, 1893, the country was in
financial near-panic and a special
session of congress was set for little
more than a month away.
Made Hospital Ship.
The economic and political conse-
uuences of a disclosure that the
chief executive had cancer of the
mouth was impossible to predict.
So, late on the night of June 30,
the six doctors, the President and
his secretary of war, Daniel La
mont, came aboard the yacht. The
craft had been converted into a hos
pital ship.
The next morning the Presidents
entire upper left jaw and a portion
of his palate we're removed in an
hour-long operation as the yacht
cruised lazily in Long Island sound.
DR.. Seelig writes that, although
President Cleveland was "a poor
surgical risk" everything went
well. Two days after the operation,
he went home.
The physicians deemed a second
operation necessary, however, and
it took place two weeks later under
similar circumstances.
Dentist Helps Out.
Three days before the special con
gressional session began, the Presi-
dent returned to Washington. A den
fist had fitted a specially-construct-
ed vulcanized rubber jaw in place.
AS he opened the special session,
his voice was firm and strong. Since
the operation was entirely inside the
mouth, there were no car to mar
his appearance and give away his
secret.
Cleveland lived for Is more years
and his death certificate recorded
that he died of "heart failure COM
plicated with pulmonary throm-
A short time after the operations
the Philadelphia Press printed a
story which, according to DR.. Seelig
was ~"uncannily accurate in many
respects"
The Press report was angrily de-
MED by l.. Clarke Davis, editor of
he Philadelphia Public Ledger and
close personal friend of the Presi-
lent, and was generally disbelieved
at the time.

FIRE AND THE GRAIN SHORTAGE

The National Board of Fire Underwriters reports tha1
fires in grain, cereal and flour mills, stock food factories, grair
elevators and warehouses increased so per cent during the last
wear. Four of those fires, occurring late in 1916, destroyed
several million bushels of grain each. The money loss ran into
the millions. Even more important, the grain burned at a time
when one of our most difficult problems is to provide 100000
600 bushels for starving peoples abroad and still supply our
own needs.
The National Board points out that it is essential that all
establishments dealing in grain in any form be extremely vigil
ant. Regular weekly inspections to discover and prevent haz-
ards should be made. The great hazard of dust explosion can
be cured by cleanliness. Automatic fire detection and sprinkler
systems are of exceptional value in grain elevators and ware
houses. The board also urges that fire departments help by
making inspections of all plants dealing with grain in their
Jurisdictions.
The need for saving grain from destruction by fire is Of
particular Importance in the rural sections of America, where
much of our grain is stored and processed. Every grain fire
that is prevented will mark a positive service to the entire
world. Care and knowledge will do the job.
