Those who remem- ber what was said when George Harvey was made ambassador to the court of St. James will have some vague idea of the scandal which for many years has followed the announcement in England of the new :peerages, baronetcies and lesser honors bestowed, theoretic- ally by the king, but actually by the party in power. All sorts of were given titles, to consolidate or pacify some political group, and more especially as a reward for contributions to the campaign funds. For all these reasons there was more than the usual interest in the honors list of the Labor govern- ment. Timid Tories foresaw the possibility of plumbers turned in- to lords and railway men made baronets. The first Labor honors list ig out and nothing of the kind happened. Ramsey MacDonald made no new peers at all and only two baronets. Even the lesser lists are shorter than usual. More striking than this, however, is the fact that the titles and hon- ors conferred are‘almost all for some signal national service. T. P. O'Connor, for instance, the ‘fath- er” of the house of commons, is made a member of the privy coun- cil, with the privilege of putting “Right Honorable” before his name. The baronets are a famous London surgeon and a man who gave the money necessary for the establishment of the National Scot- tish Hbrary. The honors list, in fact, is a real} honors list. The Labor party, | which was supposed not to under- | and to be lacking in the apprecia- tion of finer nanances of conduct, has put its Tory and Liberal op- ponents to shame by restoring, for | the moment at least, something of the old dignity and prestige of « potent factor in British society.— Raltimore Sun. IN BEHALF OF FEET If the flapper generation will permit, an orthopedic surgeon would have a word with them concerning their feet. he says, will have to be done for flapper feet besides building queer looking slippers that masquerade under the name of shoes. “For every man that comes to me for treatment for foot troub- les,” the surgeon is quoted as say- ing. “there are ten girls.” Blame for broken arches, mis- placed bones and weak muscles is placed on footgear that does not properly support and brace the ‘foot. Fashion leaps from the ex- treme high heel to the low heel or no heel at all. A few flimsy straps and a buckle or two, says the surg- eon, do not make a shoe, and much to their discomfiture and discom- fort the young ladies are finding this out. Chinese women gave up foot- binding years ago. They took to wearing shoes.—Detroit News. ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Mrs. Cottontail, Cutie’s mother, was cleaning house the day he went off to spend the afternoon and all his money at Happy Go Lucky Park. ff she needed him once she need- ed him a dozen times, and, as she said, there he was, off galivanting around just when she needed him the most. She needed him to bring the tack hammer, and she needed him to hold the stepladder, and she needed him to go to the store for more soap, and she needed him for everything. And there he was off having a good time and not once thinking that he might be of use. The more tired Mrs. Cottontail got the crosser she got and she got talk- ing out loud to herself. “I do wish that Mister Zip and his park were at the bottom of the sea,” she scolded. “And Nancy and Nick and everybody and everything in the park. Then maybe Cutie would stay at home sometimes when he’s needed and not be off spending good money on trash.” She forgot how well she liked to pack up a basket sometimes and go to the park with the family for a day’s rest and fun. But she waffi’t any different from other people, after all, for some way or other when people are tired and busy they always think other people have no right to have any fun. But as for Cutie, I do think he’d no business going off and not help- ing his mother when she had so much to do. If he had just waited— But there! This story is beginning to sound like a lecture and this is no ‘place for lectures. Well, anyway, while Mrs. Cotton- tail was scolding and scolding, the doorbell rang. There she was on top of a ladder with a curtain in one hand trying to get it fixed on a curtain pole. She had to put the curtain down while she answered the door. It was Mister Stamps, the post- man, bringing the mail. She put the mail on the hall table and went back to her work, grum- bling about days she was expecting letters and nothing came and the very day she was so busy ’n all, didn’t she have to stop and go to door. -Then she went back to ber cur- ring I had in and now there are only six. persons, from actors to profiteers, | “Where is it, There were seven ide Now 1S FooD FoR A KING TFs a uftte BiT BURNED AND IT FELL IN The Fire A Few Times BUT BY GOuY, I'S The FINEST BEATIN’ lever ale “he CHOP WHO THINKS This Did ever anybody have so much stand the traditions of the empire | trouble!” She put up the last curtain as well as she could and then went to get dressed and then she got sup- per.

I caught them on a nail.” “Sure I will, Cutie,” said Mrs. Cottontail kindly, for after all she Something, Wasn't really cross at all, and she loved Cutie like everything. So Cutie went to bed and Mrs. Cottontail did the dishes and then “Why, I declare, what’s this?” she cried, feeling in one of the and hauling out a brass ring. “Why I declare, it’s that curtain ring I lost today.

Hunt NEA Service Writer Washington, July 22.—The Re- publicans are better players al the game of politics than are the Demo- crats, They seldom miss a trick, unless the lay of the cards is abso- lutely against them. They not only count their trumps and keep track of every play that is made, but they often anticipate moves several leads ahead and thus are able to fatten their score.
