[___Eéitorial Comment ——_| | A HOOVER MYTH IN ASIA i (Philadelphia Bulletin) How myths and legends are created and how they usually have some foundation in fact is illustrated by the mental image some of the tribes of inner Asia have made of President Hoover. According to an explorer who has returned from Central Asia, stories of the relief work | of Mr. Hoover during the war came to the natives through | @ maze of exaggeration and the figure they have made of | him is that of a superhuman giant who feeds the whole | world. To a people almost completely outside the circle of all | modern knowledge and to whom the world beyond their own valleys and plains is as much a terra incognita as the lands not immediately contiguous to the Mediterran- 1 ean were to the ancients bordering on the inland sea, be- lief in the supernormal and the supernatural is easy. To them jinns and magic are part of their everyday exist- | ence and they see nothing incredible in the wonders of | tales like the Arabian Nights. But isolated as they are. the terrific percussions throughout the earth of the great war could rot fail to have been felt by them and some accounts of its happenings must have reached them as tales were passed aiong from caravans and traveled from | one camp fire to anothér into lonely villages. | The figure of Hoover feeding the Belgians first and | MAN MADE LAWS Many inteiligent citizens look upon the growing crim- inal statutes of the nation with a feeling akin to shame. They can not overlook the inference that all these laws @re necessary to preserve the life and property of the individual from his fellow men in this reputedly most en- lightened and civilized of nations. They ask themselves whether this is a nation of children and illiterates to need so much restraint. A statistician, perhaps in satirization of the criminal code, computed statistics showing that a law-abiding cit- izen has 99 chances of arrest every 24 hours. There is more tragedy than jest, however, in the announcement of s bonding company that, because of the increasing threat of arrest, it would issue an annual bond to be carried on the person to obtain the release of the holder in case of arrest. Most automobile drivers operate their cars in constant fear of arrest for some trivial breach of regulation. The most careful and capable driver is no more immune from this threat than the thoughtless and untrained operator. It is feared by some that the American people are cre- ating for themselves a tyranny of law, the yoke of which will eventually become as intolerable as a tyranny of man. And tyrants are more easily seated than dethroned. ‘The United States has a criminal class and it has a complex society that becomes more complex as the coun- try grows in population. On the other hand. it has = Public school system and prides itself on its high stand- ard of intelligence and morality. With this latter the swelling statutes seem incongruous. ON BEING USEFUL Men and women who sow the seed of constant useful activity reap the harvest of success from a soil fertilized shape in their minds and assumed heroic proportions. | Simple people are not satisfied with simple explanations of things outside their intimate knowledge. What they ; do not understand must necessarily be superhuman. Mr. Hoover as a giant whose duty it is to feed starving peo- ple is no unnatural figure to such people. SENATOR NYE HAS A THOUGHT (Duluth Herald) Some political opponents of Senator Gerald Nye of North Dakota complain that that lively young statesman has an insatiable appetite for publicity, but they have to admit that he gets it. Lately he started off a quite general discussion by suz- gesting that congressional proceedings be broadcast from @ publicly maintained radio station. Now he comes to the front with a new idea that shows he has been think- ing thoughts about farm relief. They may not be very profound thoughts but they reveal a kind heart and put him on a lot of front pages. expect success without active exertion as to gather a crop before you plant the seed. But in cultivating that char- acter which reaps true achievement you may sow in al! seasons and gather the fruits'with the serene assurance that even wind and weather—storm and stress—are 2 part of the process of personal growth. Optimism is an ally of effort and success. It is the kerne! of the nut. not the shell. It is the fine trait of the man, not the faults. It is the flowers on the hillside, not the dead leaves under the snow. It is the opportunity in any not the grind. It is up to the individual whether other farm commodities could then be easily arranged by other appropriations out of the public treasury. ‘The taxpayers of the United States have been getting CRIME AS A RURAL PROBLEM .

FILLETS OF FISH Both the salt and the fresh water | Tun \fish are plentiful at this time of the jyear. Such salt water fish as had- | dock, flounder, shad and mackerel |are now the most common, while those living in the interior can se- cure whitefish, perch pike and suckers. Many people like to use the whole fish and think that its flavor is superior to where only the fillet is used. This may be true where the fish can be secured fresh, but the tendency of the fish merchants is away from the whole fish to the use of fillets. It is more difficult to handle and keep the whole fish fresh, and if the whole fish ts used it is very important that the meat be in good condition. The eyes should be bright and shiny. The gills should be bright red rather than a faded color. The flesh should be firm and elastic, and should not dent easily. It is a bad sign if the scales come off too easily. The fillet is the thick, flat muscular Part of the fish after the bones, skin and internal organs have been re- moved. Filleting fish is done at the fish houses as soon as the boats dock. The fish, often still alive when landed at the dock, are killed and the fillet part removed and immediately put on ice and frozen. This is by far the nest part of the fish. The head and fins have no food value, and prac- tically all of the edible portion of the fish is contained in the fillet. When the fillet is removed, dressed and shipped, there is very little dan- ger of decomposition, even if kept for months in the packing houses. Here are some suggestions on vari- ous ways to prepare fillet of fish: Colonel Charles | bergh sends his sweetheart old-fash- -third cabin scheme installed on Atlantic | toned corsages of sweetheart roses when she's going to a party.
