Kresge Bidg (Official City, State and County Newspaper) ABRAHAM LINCOLN A mystic fascination mantles the comedy and tragedy ‘ that were Abraham Lincoln, as today the world turns the turnip was the poor man’s vege- table, since it was readily grown and easily stored. Unknown to the peas- ants who partook of the turnip, it balanced their diets by providing the anti-scorbutic and alkalihe forming elements, in this way counteracting, to some extent, a diet which would otherwise have been too rich in meats Question: Mrs. R. C. M. A. writes: “I am a married woman in the early thirties and had a T. B. kidney taken out several years ago. Many people tell me I will not live very long although I feel reasonably well. Can that be true? Weight only 100 pounds, and am five feet four inches tail. What foods are best for me, and are his views in the following words: After good-will gestures, what next? ‘Thanks to President-elect Hoover, the turtle dove 1s cooing over the Americas more sweetly than in many years. The impression of some correspondents who accom- e @gain, on the anniversary of his birth, to muse on the personality which has become so toweringly heroic that the elements of myth may in future generations become blended with its purely human immortality. ‘The real Lincoln was the man known to those of his own times and generation, son of the soil, pioneer of the frontier, the commoner of the West, the saviour of & nation, the liberator of a race and, in the end, the pitifully crumpled prey of a mad-minded assassin. It is good that this great earthy figure of the republic should live in the traditions of the American people as such rather than it should be deified into demi-godhood, for the West of his day bred its geniuses in very human molds, and it was this contrast between the clay of the man and the spark of his genius that has made Lincoln such a fascinating character to the world. In him it is almost impossible to doubt fe figure of @estiny. Plainly that mysterious realm which gives forth its supermen for the epochal stresses of races and nations gave the world this gangling, shuffling figure, which, in ability to play the dramatic role of saviour of a nation rent by a terrible civil conflict, showed the touch of a genius the mere world cannot bestow. The outer man ‘was ruggedly human, the inner was animated with a Spiritual force that was akin to divinity. This is why Abraham Linceln muddled through four bloody years of civil war, his purpose to save the nation rising with its victories and sinking with its defeats, till at last he found the instruments of national salvation and the great task was successfully finished. In between lay that masterful inspiration that had its expression in emancipation. The most dramatic episode of the whole wer was the striking off of the shackles of slavery from millions of oppressed humans, for it was the extinction of a curse that split the nation wide apart and placed between the factions the bloody chagm of war, Lincoln made this the passage of a red sea into a promised land of permanent unity by this Peak act of his administration. All these things the south now recognizes as well as the north. Then from out of the darkness of sectional hate that had maddened one brain befell that tragedy that was the ‘sorrow of the north and the misfortune of the south; and the man most needed to bind up the wounds of the con- Nict and to touch the mystic chords of memory stretch- ing from the battlefields of the past back into the harmony of a united people was taken away from his estranged countrymen when more needed by them than he even had been in the surging tide of war. So tragedy took over the clay that was Abraham Lin- Coln and has been molding it into the heroic sculpture of the Great Emancipator. From being just an im- mortal American, Lincoln has become the heritage of the Anglo-Saxon race. He has even grown beyond that and now is a world figure before whose fame all na- tions have come to stand in reverence. What an inspira- tion to be of a nation and people who have produced such ® gigantic spiritual figure to animate its successive gen- erations with that trinity of principles he so strikingly enunciated—of government of the people, by the people and for the people! The study of Lincoln goes on unceasingly and a strik- ing contribution to the efforts to explain how a person of apparently such humble descent and downtrodden ‘ancestors could show such traits of genius was made a month ago by Dr. William E. Barton, a Lincoln author- ity, whose investigations led him to believe that Lincoln really was a blueblood, moreover a kinsman of the great Teader of the Confederacy, General Robert E. Lee. In an article in January Good Housekeeping he elaborates this possible discovery. He says Nancy Hanks, Lincoln’s mother, was a great-great-granddaughter of ol. Richard Lee, who came to Virginia from England in 1642. This Col. Lee, incidentally, was an ancestor of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and if Dr. Barton’s researches are correct, Lincoln and Lee, opponents in the greatest struggle the New World ever saw, were blood relations. All of this is highly interesting. Those folk who be- panied Hoover on his fast visit to ten Latin American republics that all these nations now love us like a father, with all suspicion removed, is considerably exaggerated. Equally unwarranted is the idea that there has never been any appreciatile resentment directed against us from those quarters and that if there was it was inconsequen- tial agitation inspired by a no-account bunch of bol- sheviks or cheap politicians, The fact is, however, that Hoover has done a great deal to ameliorate a situation which, if allowed to continue, might in time have reacted seriously against our inter- ests. He has made a distinct start toward achieving a Pan-American solidarity such as is distinctly advanta- geous from a strategic goint of view for the independent states of both hemispheres. That much Hoover has done by conveying the idea that he is sympathetic toward the aspirations of our so-called sister republics. Whether he so planned or not—and there is every reason to believe that he did— Hoover left the impression in Latin America that our foreign policy during his administration would be dis- tinctly less hard-boiled than in the past. As long as the spirit of Hoover's tour is maintained in administration of our foreign policy, there is reason to hope for an era of international cooperation which will consolidate political and commercial relations to the benefit of the people of both continents. On the other hand, if the Hoover administration uses methods similar to those employed in recent years in Nicaragua and toward Mexico, the ideal of Pan-Ameri- canism will suffer severely. Supposing that such methods are entirely justified and assuming that no nation or combination of them is powerful enough actively to op- pose us, inestimable harm’ will be done to our interna- tional relations with Latin America. ‘The Hoover good-will gesture would then be so much oil on the flames. It would be charged that our president- elect had come with deceit and guile, as a wolf in sheep's clothing, and there would be many to take up the cry. The reaction would be one of bitterness and disillusion- ment, This forecast is grounded upon as much contact with persons of all classes as your correspondent was able to establish during the Hoover trip. Everywhere there were cheers for Hoover and the motives supposed to inspire his visit; everywhere predictions concerning its beneficial effect. But nowhere was approval voiced of our past Latin-American policy and, quite aside from radical demonstrations and utterances of radical. newspapers, there was ample evidence that even among the conserva- tive elements the reaction to it had been distinctly un- favorable. Inquiry often developed that little Sandino in Nicaragua had become a popular hero in countries far away from his own. Many Latin Americans admire us, but any of them can cite us a long list of our past “dniquities.” Today what one knows of Hoover's mind and the obvious advantage of effecting a genuine Pan-American- ism which will be based on more than a pretense of international equality seem to make it a reasonably safe bet that the new president is determined on a good-will administration as concerns Latin America, to follow up his good-will tour. The opportunities, from all standpoints, seem to be obvious. Great Scott! Does Mr. Hoover want the South Ameri- can vote also? Forty states should be enough.—Shoe and Leather Reporter. | Editorial Comment | EDWIN DENBY’S UNUSUAL CASE (Devils Lake Journal) One of the most unusual things about Edwin Denby’s life was the reception he received by the people of Detroit when he returned to his home town after he had resigned as secretary of the navy following the disclosures in the investigation of the Teapot Dome oil leases. Mr. Denby YOUR CHILDREN _ 5 Re T NER TERI &y lve Roberts Barton ©1928 by ServiceIne. - There are two courses to pursue in child training. The obvious way, the old-fashioned way, was to allow a child to grow up in any sort of faghion until he was five or six years ‘did and when one had a sizable boy or girl to work on begin smoothing out the bad places that somehow or other had gotten by accident into his constitution. The new way, since intelligence has made our acquaintance, is to begin with @ baby as soon as his senses be- gin to function and not to lose those precious five or six years at the be- ginning of life, which are, we now know, the most important of man’s entire span. Though a man may be elected president, the years of service he spends in the White House are not as important to him personally as the years he spends between the time of his birth and the time he starts to school. What he is later depends on what he is then. Without any question the most plastic period of a child’s life are his early years. He is like a tree. You cannot take a tree when it is six years old, wind-twisted, warped, and gnarled, and produce from it the same upstanding thing of beauty it would have been if cared for prop- erly in the. beginning. The Plastic Years The child is indeed “father to the man.” What the child is before six, the man will be. It looks like a tremendous respon- sibility, does it not, for a young mother starting in with her first baby? And so it is. She hasn't the advantage that her mother had of waiting @ few years until both she and her child are a little older and then starting in to smack his mis- takes out of him. No, the newer thought has put all that in the dis- ard. card. She must start in at once and learn her new profession of mother- hood, as regards her baby’s character, trom the very beginning—the avoid- ance of complexes, cultivating the de- sirable and keeping out the disas- trous—prevention to keep down weeds —fertiliver to coax out the timid lit- tle flowers of worth and goodness.

It is not necessary to peel them, although the root tips and stalk should be removed. Cover with boiling water and cook for about three-quarters of an hour. If cooked | ; this length of time, the flavor will be milder than otherwise. Drain them and use the juice for a soup. Mash the turnips and press through a col- ander. Stir in two tablespoonfuls of butter and enough salt to season. If desired, the turnips may be mixed with an equal quantity of mashed potatoes, placed in a baking pan and baked until golden brown on top.

The seeds are usually eaten with this fruit and furnish roughage to he intestines, but should not be used where there is a severe inflamma- ‘ion of the intestines. The juice may be used, however, after the seeds have been strained out. Chilblains Question: R. I.
