It seemed that when Rastus and Sam died they took different routes; so when the latler got to heaven he called Rastus on the 'phone. “Rastus,” he said, “how yo’ like it down thar?” “QOh, boy! Dis here am some place,” replied Rastus. “All we has to do is; to wear a red suit wid hons, an’ ebery | now an® den shovel some coal on de| fire. We don't work mo more dan; two hours out ob de 24 hours down here. But tell, me, Sam, how is it with you up yonder?”’ “Mzh goodness!

These conferences will be extended to every county. The five conférences thus far held have included\ome 20 boards and have been widely attended. i The board of control announced at | this time a new policy of co-opera-| tion with the local welfare bqards; to prevent the marriage of the unfit. There scems to have been an alarm- ing increase in the mating of the fecble-minded. As a means of check- ing- this increase, the board of con- trol will in the future send to each} clerk of the district comt a full list of all persons who have been deter- mined to be feeble-minded by the courts, When the clerk receives an application for a marriage license he will thus be able to check the names of the applicants and determine whe- ther they are entitled to receive such| a license.

D., Feb. 22.—A storm of vast proportions, probably 500 to 1,000 miles in width, coming out of the northwest, is today over southern Manitoba, the Dakotas, Nebraska, Jowa 2nd Wisconsin. Its trend today is southeast. Weather Observer Spencer of Moorhead bases the storm center southeast of here today. The storm assumed various’ forms, from a heavy rain, thunder and light- ning in the twin cities, to a hard bliz- zard. A terrific_wind that traveled from 14 to 38 miles an hour is driv- ing-the heavy snow which lay on the ground and swirling it through the atr. It is believed that a bolt of light- ning: struck fire to the Wayne Elevat- or-.ebmpany’s building in St. Paul, whith burned with a loss of approx- imately 15,000 bushels of grain and a . damage cstimated at $65,000.

HARDING HOPEFUL THAT “BRITAIN WILL PAY SO0N By Carl D. Groat. w8V United Press) Washington, Feb. 22.—President Harding has high hopes that by July 1 Great Britain will have added to the United States onc billion in bonds to refund part of its war debt to this country This information was received by members - of the house ways and means committee by President Hard- ing at a recent White House meet- ing. The president has virtual assur- ances that the British bonds, which are in exchange of temporary obliga- tiong wlil be forthcoming at that time This is the reason, it was said, for Harding’s expressed wish for further delay by congress in enacting the soldier bonus bill. Wormwood. he kaiser's pet racing yacht was the Germanla. He kept it at the Kiel Yacht club and dreamed of world power as it carried him on cruises. The war changed a lot of things. It changed the name Germania to Halt Moon. It also changed the yacht's ownership. Gordon Woodbury of New York owns it now. He starts on the Half Moon for a crulse in the South seas, When Bill Hohenzollern heard about this at his famous woodpile in Hol- 1and, it's a safe bet he broke his saw. clty, and not apart. ‘Minneapalis ‘Man Freed of ’ [ CANHOLDJ0B FORFIRSTTINE.

One of the Innumerable uses ¢» which the “telegraphone,” an inved- tion announced by the Society of Elec- trical Development, may be placed is that of preventing unhappy marriages. The fuventor himself, name not {is- closed, belleves, that it it can be ad- Jjusted over the heart of the girh, ker doubt-torn swain will be able ta tell whether she is telling the truth or net. He had pot invented a way of making the givl put this lie detector on. The “telegraphone” ' records the breathing and heart beats. It magni- fies irregularities ‘caused hy emotions and is regarded by criminologists as a sure method of catching lying wit- nesses. The lover suggestion is put forward by the inventor merely as an example of what science could do if permitted. “When John grows doubtful of the reality of Joan's love for him,” he says In his dry, academic way, “he can satisfy himself by having her heart flutters measured.” If the girl puts up a struggle at a suggostion that she wear this har- ness during an evening -of ‘courtship John may. be sure that he is going to get several hours of lies. In that case there is nothing to.do but doubt every thing she says. Thus will unhappy ‘marriagés be prevented. Is This All Right, Landlord? EVRYBODY IS LOOKING FER VALUES THESE DAY .

SAN_ FRANCISCO'S SKYSCRAPER Surely it must long have seemed a reproach to California, the land of big trees, big peaches, big telescopes, and big ranches, that it should possess no skyscraping building worthy of the name! Of course, with the immense tracts of habitable territory within its valleys, there is less apparent need for king communion with the sun- swept skies than there might be, say, in crowded New York. Nevertheless, it seems sometimés, on viewing the Woolworth building, that New York oo Mpea ana California refsed But now it appears that the reproach will be lifted. San Francisco will join the game with its projected 800-foot high Crocker building, says thq Christian Science Monitor. This will be easily .the tallest building on the Pacific coast. But its claims may; not stop at all. Does not the Wool-‘ worth its€lf measure but 780 feet from sldewalk to peak? Then, of course, there will be subsidiary note-compars ings with- the- Woolworth, which can offer 43 miles of plumbing, twwo miles of elevator shafts, 40 acres of floor area, and hundreds of millions of pounds welght.
