It will even include eight fireproof vaults for stozing motion picture films, sound recordings of news events, and speeches by high officials. Things are being made easier for the future historians all the time. What would we not give today for a sound film of Patrick Henry's great “Treason” speech before the Virginia House of Burgesses? Of or Wash- ington’s first inaugural address? Or of gaunt Lincoln speaking those few immortal Ij on the field of Gettys- burg?

THE VICISSITUDES OF THE FAU- CIAL TONSILS The fauces is the narrow passage from the mouth or oral cavity to the throat or pharynx, between the base of the tongue and the soft palate.

We call ’em faucial tonsils to distinguish these particular tonsils between the pillars from other tonsils which are provided here and there about the premises as a reserve the doctor may fall back on when the faucial tonsils pay no dividends.

Now a beginning is being mede} toward doing something about it. Harvard for some years has had a! valuable school of business adminis- | tration, Originally it had been in- tended as a school of political science and administration. Now, under Har- vard’s new President Conant, this School is being turned into a school of “public and private business.” It is planned to offer in the new school @ thorough training not only for young men who enter orivate business, but also for those who aim to devote their energies to tho sort of great public enterprises that are beginning to grow in importance, projects such as the Tennessee Valley Authority, and public bodies such as the Federal Trade Commission, Se- curities and Exchange Commission, @nd = dozen others. Dean Wallace Brett Donham, who thas ably presided over the school while it was training promising young men for private business, is thorough- ly in sympathy with the idea that im- Portent public business requires just as thorough training. “It is impossible to improvise a service certificates. That is a choice which Mr. Roose- velt, in all fairness, should not be| asked to make. The bonus and work each should stand or fall on its own merits. On the question of their dis- Position will hang a combined ex- penditure, on the part of the federal government, of more than seven bil- lion dollars. If the bonus rider were attached, the President would either have to approve that vast outlay of funds or reject it, for he has no au- thority to veto any bill in part. The rider is an old trick, but it has little more than venerability to com- mend it. It is a means of putting the chief executive in a hole, and of forcing him to accept legislation h does not want ia order to end.

While this may be strategy of a sort, it will hardly commend itself to any- one who believes that bonus legisla- merits. would amount to a confessior of weakness, and a desire to obtain by coercion a concession which Mr, Roosevelt, in clear conscience, could not make. To tie a $2,200,000,000 bonus bill to the tail of the $4,880,000,000 relief kite would undoubtedly p!ace Mr. Roosevelt in @ quandry; Fut since when has it been good policy, with an expenditure of more than seven billion dollars in the balance, to give the President an first-class civil service,” he points out, [ til-or-nothing choice? jimmediate payment of the adjusted |they don’t count.

Roosevelt has no recollections of that. Neither has Bill Buillitt, Amer- jican ambassador to the U.S. 8. R. Those three were the only ones present when the promise is alleged to hhave been mace. Logic as well as numbers seems to be on the Amer- ican s in this dispute. Roosevelt knew. there would be no popular support in this country for such loan, His primary object was to obtain business for American heavy | industries jloan for ince credits from the Expor ink would suffice for her purchases here. Russia needed no cash; should not be overlooked. But the nasty little issue of ver- acity between statesmen and na- tions wouldn't have arisen if the cards had been laid on the table in full) jview of us kibitzers. JOKE NOT SO FUNNY One of those picturesque south- western congressmen who arrive here occasionally in huge cowboy hats and other conspicuous raiment to become celebrated for homely ruggedness and wisecracks and more or less funny stories had an experience on New Year's Eve which he doesn't in- clude in his repertoire. The congressman and a girl friend arrived at a night club and found the cover charge that night was $4.50 apiece, The congressman said they would have to go away from there because such @ cover charge was “undemo- cratic” and his constituents would be sore if they ever heard about it. But they would have one drink, anyway, just to be sociable. The drinks cost 80 cents. The congressman peeled a bill from his roll and told the waiter to keep the change. The two went off to a quiet, inexpensive place where there wasn’t much excitement. Next day the night club proprietor found the congressman waiting at the front door to demand $99.

That is no joke about the tonsil tissue that surrounds the orifice or entrance to the appendix. Indeed, it is not uncommon to see a young per- gon pass through several successive attacks of tonsillitis or quinsy and then up and throw a surprise party in the way of appendicitis—all due to the same strain of Streptococcus or Pneumococcus infection. The germ) first gains foothold in or about the tonsil, in a focus or depot which re- mains smouldering after the acute sore throat has passed, and eventu- ally, thanks to specific affinity for adenoid or lymphoid tissue, on @ little excursion through the circulation comes across a nice fresh pasture at the base of the appendix“ and col- onizes there. According to press item a London doctor has invented a tonsil brush and advocates brushing the tonsils each night and morning as a health habit. He maintains this will keep the tonsils clean and prevent—— ‘Well, I suppose we are in for an era of new slogans now, “A clean tonsil never decays”. “Brush your tonsils twice a day; see your laryngologist at least every fifty years.” Ten or fifteen years ago I suggested in this column just such daily clean- ing of the tonsils as this London chappie has now espoused.

Copper sulphate is also known as blue vitriol and blue- | stone. Perhaps it is just as well you didn’t get the copperas.
