Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON The Things He Missed ‘There is something intensely human and revealing in a story about a New York famliy that gave an elaborate and expensive funeral to its dead son even though the family has been almost destitute for months. ‘The family has been having hard luck for a long time. For months the ‘father had been out of work. Then he got a part-time job that netted him $15 a week. There were eight children, and this didn’t go far; in- deed, the family would have been very badly off but for contributions from neighbors and charitable organiza- tions, Then this little boy—his name was Richard, and he was just four—was Killed by an auto. And straightway the family ordered a fine casket and @ good funeral for him—the whole to cost $168, which is a lot of money when you're supporting a large family on $15 a week. Little Richard even got a new suit for the funeral, al- though he had never in his life had an all-new outfit on. Now that pathetic little story is somehow very a) Pealing, because it illustrates so well the blindness, the perversity and the futile and misdirected gestures of Jove that all of us, in one way or another, are heir to. To spend $168 on a funeral when one is suffering for want of food and clothing is folly, of course; but one’s indignation over it is tempered by an appreciation of the sentiment that lay back of it. And that sentiment, it seems to us, was not merely a vulgar desire to impress the neighbors. More probably it was a vague and pitiful yearning to do something for the dead youngster; a desire to make up to him, in the moment of his passing, for all of the things that he had missed in his brief life. The new suit of clothes, for instance, is a revealing touch. Richard, who never had a new suit in his life, goes to his grave in brave new finery—could that come from anything but a wish to give the little lad a last taste of the brighiness he had never‘had? And the nice, expensive casket, and the, elaborate funeral—don't they, too, trace back to the same motive? Of course, it was all very mistaken; just the sort of thing that causes social service workers to wring their hands and remark that some people hardly deserve help. But it is not such a hard thing to understand, after all. Human beings have a way of acting irrationally in try- ing times, even if it does horrify the social service’ workers. No grief in all the world is quite as terrible as the grief which comes when a small child dies. And when that child's life has been, not that mixture of sun- shine and laughter and brightness of which every child's life ought to consist, but a long serles of denials and de- privations—well, is it easy to condemn this family for failing to act sensibly? A Faker Who Believed Coroners’ juries sometimes return strange verdicts. But when you get one which reports that its subject “died from a broken heart, superinduced by a belief that God had deprived him of the divine power of healing,” you have a verdict that is more than usually bout to go out of business. And if you fail to see any: thing romantic about an electric interurban railway, Just stop and think for a minute about the necromancy wrought by the passage of the years. Electric railways have been having a high mortality rate lately. The hard-surfaced road and the omni- present automobile have combined to kill them by the score. Those that survive have to fight very hard in- deed. For most of them the struggle has been too great. There is a curious parallel here, between the electric railway of today and the canal of a century ago. Just as the electric railway, along in the ‘00's, was hailed as a tremendous boon to the rural districts flanking big cities, so the canal of an earlier generation was greeted. The canal was an invaluable artery of commerce. Its clumsy, horse-drawn barges played a big part in the develop- ment of the nation. Then the railroad came along, and the canal died. Today the canal looks romantic to us. If anyone of us could step out now and make a trip on a canal boat of 1830 he would feel that he had done something comparable to taking passage on one of Columbus’ car- avels. The canal barge, having been wrought upon by time and disuse, gleams for us with an aura it never had while it was alive. In its day it was simply a public utility—subject, doubtless, to the same sort of wrathful objurgation that public utilities always get. Now, being long dead, it is a thing of romance. | Our great-grandchildren, in their turn, will look on the electric railway precisely as we look on the canal. It will be, to them, oye of those delightful bits of fur- niture used 4n the inexpressibly quaint, colorful and romantic early 1900's. They will envy us our privilege of swaying over bumpy tracks through quiet rural scen- ery, and will half wish that the automobile had not come to end that privilege—just as we half wish that) the railroads had not killed the old canals. ; And that is the way it usually goes. Romance is al-| ways something that one’s grandfather had. It lies beyond the borders of everyday life, and it always will —which is why we are always seeking it and never find- ing it. Good intentions alone won’t keep a man out of prison. One thing in which most people have an abiding > faith is sleep, ‘Woman is conceded the right to change her mind. Man tries to usurp the prerogative and finds himself the defendant in a breach of promise case. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors, They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Trib- une's policies, A Wheat Embargo (Minneapolis Tribune) Mr. Legge evidently is in a state of mind somewhat approaching a panic over the prospect that the world price of wheat will fall to a level that will permit impor- tation into the United States over the 42c tariff wall. His suggested preventative is a temporary embargo which will forbit the importation of wheat into this country un- der any condition. s There is little doubt that some such action will be tak- en if the world price situation warrants it. However, the present spread between Winnipeg and Minneapolis, and Winnipeg and Chicago is still quite a distance from 42c, and it is not easy to see how the Canadian price js going to fall sufficiently to permit wheat to come dvér the border. The implication in Mr. Legge’s statement that the millers of the United States, in their anxiety to secure Canadian wheat, would be willing to pay such a premium as would help Canadian wheat to scale the tariff wall, has little or no foundation in fact. There are years when the American millers use a comparatively small quantity of Canadian wheat to give their flour certain qualities that happen to be lacking in American wheat. But in the years when American wheat is of sufficiently high protein content, American millers have little or no i.se for Canadian wheat. The importation statistics for the period from July 1 to December 1 show that but 2,000 bushels of wheat were brought into this country from Canada for the purpose of manufacturing United States flour. This is, of course, an insignificant amount, but is & measure of the needs of the United States millers. In this connection it should be borne in mind that the bond- ed wheat coming into this country: from Canada is all re-exported in the form of flour and has no effect on the American market. The price of wheat would have to fall about 24c lower in Winnipeg before it could come profitably into the United States. Such a further drop in the Canadian price is hardly within the bounds of probability. If such @ drop should occur, the farm board will, of course, be out of the ordinary. ‘This particular verdict was returned in India, where: almost anything can happen. But the dead man about whom the verdict was written was an American; a man named James Brandon, born in Tennessee, who had. one of the strangest careers any Tennesseean ever fashioned. Brandon went to India years ago, possessed of a pair of magic specetacles through which, he was “able to see God.” These spectacles made him a holy man, He lived in a cave, and presently. India’s sick and crippled folk were coming to him in droves, to be healed by the laying on of hands. He grew famous and rich, remit- ting 5,000 rupees a month back to America. But finally some practical joker crept into his cave and stole his spectacles; and with their. departure van- ished Brandon’s magical power. He lost his ability to cure people, and finally he simply pined away and died—and the coroner's jury reported, quite truthfully, that he had died of a broken heart. Now the interesting thing about this case is the ob- vious fact that this man believed in his own magic. And that is something worth keeping in mind, ‘Usually we set people of his kind down as outright frauds. The magical healer, the soothsayer, the fortune- teller, the astrologer—we lump them together as fakes and swindlers and agree that they are utterly devoid of scruples and morals. But this man, evidently, was quite sincere; and it is Probable that many people of that kind are sincere. They have the tricks of the trade, of course; the outer wrapping of deception and hocus-pocus to impress the credulous; but underneath they retain a residuum of belief. The healer really is convinced that he has a magical power. The astrologer, for all his fakery, feels Sure that there really is something in it. The fortune- teller, even if he does try to tell his clients what they want to hear, believes that he is really lifting the veil of the future a little bit, in all sincerity. So the worst thing that can happen to one of these People is the conviction that he has been robbed of his special power. He has been in touch with the super- natural. Put him out of touch, and there is nothing for him to do but die, just as this transplanted Tennesseean died in India. The Magic of Old Days one is forced to wonder if we are able to Tecognize romance when we see it at close range. If enough away, of course, it is recognizable. Miles or years of time can put a haze about any make it look like the relic of a fairer day; object, brought to our immediate vicinity, Romance is always a thing of yester- that lies just over the next hill. It own dooryards. news item; a brief announcement that electric interurban railway is i confronted with the necessity of buying Canadian as well as United States wheat at.72c a bushel, which would then be 42c over the world price. A market condition such as would bring about this situation is, of course, extremely unlikely. One must conclude that Mr. Legge is the possessor of information that is as yet denied the grain men. Incidentally, Mr. Legge’s suggestion of an embargo will bring to the public mind the fact that the tariff on’ wheat does serve a purpose. If it wasn’t for the present tariff on wheat, the farm board could hardly buy all the wheat that is being offered and thus maintain the begged price.

Weber. Those who were in Linton on busi- lar ever challenged the world’s attention than the plan of the Italian aviation force to cross the Atlantic with a squadron of twelve seaplanes. It is Mussolini’s supreme bid for flying glory. Gen. Italo Balbo, his air minister, has arrived at Bol- ama, Portuguese Guiana, on the southwesternmost bulge of the African continent, with his ships, after a success- ful flight which began at Ortobello, Italy, on December 11. After tuning-up preparations at Bolama, the squad- Sty hop off for Port Natal, Brazil, some time next week, Fifty-six officers and men comprise the personnel of this daring expedition. Their final objective is Rio de Janeiro, If they reach it, with crews and planes intact, they will have set a new and amazing mark in the ro- mantic realm of the air. Mussolini has at the back of his brilliant head much more than a triumphant feat of aviation, however much luster it might shed on Fascist efficiency. . Italy, Spain and France are keen rivals for the good will and trade of their sister Latin countries to the south of the United States. More than one airplane flight to Brazil from Europe has been undertaken with a view to advertising this or that country of its origin. Italy's aer- jal descent upon the Southern Atlantic in force outstrips all previous efforts. Rome designed it, no doubt, for that impressive purpose. The magnitude and audacity of the Project entitle it to success. Conscious of the prestige that will attach to Italian aviation if the flight comes off, no technical arrange- ments designed to insure its accomplishment have been overlooked. Gen. Balbo’s squadron of a dozen ships is supplemented by a reserve of two. All are of the power- ful “ocean-geing” type of seaplanes which can come down on the water in an emergency relatively without risk. On the squadron's first leg from Italy last week it en- countered adverse winds and bad weather scattered it.

But if the Italians have behind them a record of trans- atlantic flight in a squadron formation they will hang up a target which will be worth shooting at and one on which the world will not hesitate to shower them with congratulations ‘ Godfrey Grenz, Jake Schiermeister ‘been working for Mrs. Earl Smith in and Math Koppy were business call- is ers in Cannon Ball Saturday. tet eennpe 0) Her parental HOLT OC \cKwS CLUB ness and shopping from this vicinity Wednesday were irs, Dorothy Ren- schler and son Edwin, Albert Goehr- ing, Fred Ohlhauser, Gust Joeb, ‘fath Koppy, Herman Backhaus and son John, Mr. and Mrs, John Dhl- hauser Sr., and daughter Bertha, and Elizabeth Koppy.

The entire plant may be used for food as there is nothing injurious in the leaves, stem or root, Beets are a trifle more nourishing than carrots or turnips due to the large amount of sugar which they contain. They give the body a large amount of roughage and are valuable because of their alkaline-forming mineral salts. The beet greens are equally as wholesome as spinach.

A number of ex- aminations have disclosed nothing wrong with me.” Answer: The beardless face, fall- ing hair, and lack of concentration would be more apt to indicate sone Geficiency of the thyroid or sexual glands, but only a thorough examina- tion could determine this. The dark coloring under the eyes may be pro- duced by auto-intoxication or ener- vation. Lemon Fast Question: Mrs. M. H. writes: “I wish to take a lemon fast for reduc-/ ing. How should I use them?” Answer: Fasting on water and/|; lemon juice is a very simple proce-“ dure. All you need to do is to drink whatever water you want, flavoring it with a small amount of lemon Juice. It is all right to occasionally add the juice of oranges, limes or grapefruit which sometimes make the water more palatable.

Today Is the Anniversary of THE GADSDEN TREATY On Dec. 30, 1853, the Gadsden Purchase treaty between the United States and Mexico was signed. It involved the purchase of a tract of land lying partly within the pres- ent New Mexico and partly within the present Arizona, and embraced an area of more than 45,000 square miles. For this the United States gave the sum of $10,000,000. The land was regarded as of little use for agricultural purposes and was purchased largely with a view to settling boundary disputes in tha‘ quarter between the two govern- ments, and to securing a desirable route for the'projected Southern Pa- cific railroad. The treaty of the sale was nego- tiated with Santa Anna by James Gadsden, then minister to Mexico. ‘The sale met with much opposition in Mexico and caused the banishment of Santa Anna in 1855. f BARBS i depression, says & news item.
