v ' (United Press Correspondent, With 7 [ . SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 18;:1920..". By Raymond L. Clapper President-elect Harding.) 1 The visit of President-elect Harding to the capital of the Panamanian re- public is resulting in a noticeable in-| crease in friendly feeling toward the ‘United States, according to Panaman- den offictals and prominent Ameri- cans here. " i It was checked, for the time being, i at least, a growing undercurrent of | resentment toward the United States which has been assiduously fanned by radical Pan;manians seeking to over- throw porras party now in power and avowedly friendly to the Amer- ican government. : Harding accomplished this, Am- ericans here say, by his friendly re- imarks at the dinner given him by| President Porras and appearances at informal receptions, where he em- phasized the responsibility resting on the Republic of Panama and in- ‘Panama City, R, P.

N sisted that the United States wanted all countries to have the same share of freedom in international relations! that it desires for itself. | Friction has been developing for! some time, centering largely around! disputes over acquisition of land in| Panama to be used in fortifying the| canal. A treaty gives the United States the right to purchase landsj for this purpose, but a difference has| arisen over the price to be paid, the| American officials insisting on the! 1904 valuation figures and Pana- manians claiming this is too low now. | Just now the contemplated acquisi- tion of sites on Toboga Island for ad- ditional defenses at the Pacific end of the canal is the center of friction. This feeling reached a crisis re-| cently, when General Pershing was on a tour of inspection in the canal zone. Local politicians had been | haranguing a crowd in front of the Union Club, where General Pershing was to be feted. The crowd got out| of hand and began throwing rocks at automobiles in which Americans were arriving for the banquet. Word was dispatched to General Pershing, | vho was about to start from the Ti-| voll Hotel at Ancon and what might | have been a serious ‘incident was thereby averted. President Porras, formerly Pana-! , manian minister to the United States, | is exerting every effort to allay this' « unfriendly feeling, and it was to as-j sist him in this enterprise and ta seek a better understanding with the citi- zens of the Panamanian rennhlic that Senator Harding abandoned his reluc- tance to visit foreign soil while ‘in Panama. Leading citizens of Panama realize fully, Americans here say, that it is onlv with the backing of the Unit-| ed States that they are enabled to preserve their independence.

HARDER SCHEDULES FOR BIG GRIDIRON ELEVENS By Henry L. Farrell (United Press Correspondent) New York, Dec. 18—Glory in mod- ern football is not so much a matter of how many you beat as who you beat. Harvard hasn't lost a game in three years, yet the Crimson is being ig- nored each year when it comes to se- “Whem did you beat?” the ex- perts ask when Harvard howls for recognition. A successive string of victories down a velvet-padded road is not con- vincing and .ue big eastern elevens are beginning to realize it. Next season will see harder sched- ules and a greater number of big inter-sectional games than ever have been arranged. Two and perhaps three teams of | the Western Conference are coming east, avcording to present plans. Chicago is to play Princeton, Illi- noie is comsidering a place on the Yale schedule, and Ohio State, the champions, will take on some big team in these parts. Harvard offered the wvuckeyes a game, but refused to play in colum- bus the following year and the Ohio officials declined the invitation. Ohio wants a big eastern eleven to open the new million dollar stadium in Columbus in 1922. Some talk is being heard of the Navy team there, with President Harding in tne ‘‘presi- dential box.” The midshipmen play Pennsylva- nia in Philadelphia and Princeton at Annapolis, while their rivals, the West point Cadets, aré dickering with Columbia and Harvard in addition to their annual game with Notre Dame. Harvard plays an early game with Centre College and also would like to have Georgia Tech for another Satur- aay. Pittsburgh cancelled relations/ with Tech, so the souherners must| seek another spot for their annual trip to the north. Princeton, with the prospect of one of the greatest teams that ever play- ning a terrific schedule of big games, dotted with intersectional contests that may earn for the Tigers the national championship. ~ Syracuse and Dartmouth likewise are lcoking to the west for visitors on the promise to give them return games in 1922. Yale made no friends by cancelling relations with Boston College, a team| which beat them two years in suc- cession. But Boston”will have no trouble getting big games. LOOT STORES OF FIELD MICE North Dakota Indians Raid Caches of Delicacy, but Alwa; .cave Corn in Ite'Place. In the northern patt of North Da- Kota there grows a bean which is re- Inted to the peanut and of which the Indlans of that section are very fond. As each plant bears but a single bean, | the labor of gathering them would be very great, but the field mice of that section gather the beans and hide | them for winter consumption in under- | ground storehouses. The Indians know how to locate the | cnches and In the autumn they go, forth and rob them, but the supplies | are invariably replaced with corn or | some other grain which the Indians have in plenty, so that the little har- | vesters are not starved out. The beans have a delicious flavor and are highly prized. In the course | of a few days' hunt one Indian may | gather two bushels, a few quarts belng ' secured from each of the underground | storehouses. i ‘The Indlgns say that this method of | gathering food from mouse hoards dates back to prehistoric times, but | the traditions of the tribes protect the | mice in that it is taught that dire pun- | tshment falls upon those who take the | beans without replacing them with | corn.—Chicago Jburnal. P T Y Mary’s New Pocketbook. Mary had a new pocketbook with a coin in it. She proudly showed it to a | friend of the family, and a man who | adores all children, particularly ador- able Mary. When Mary was not look- ing he put. three new coins in the | pocketbook with the original one and when Mary found it she was so sur- prised that she,jumped up and down and shouted, “Mother, mother, my 20in's hatched.” —_— Variation in Carpets.
