E. LESTER JONES. late issue of the Coast and Geodetic Survey R. S. Patton, Director, paid a splendid to the late Col. E. Lester Jones who, for 14 was directing head of the Survey. Appointed by President Wilson in 1915, he continued in that position until his death on April 9, of this yes using his talent and energy to promote scientific work and investigation without ever losing sight of the practic ide of his task. In a letter to members of the Coast and Geodetic Survey service, Mr. Patton, his successor, said: Colonel Jones had an unbounded pride in splendid service. He idealized it as a thing, animated by litions of doing a great work in order that ight be made safer and better for mil- lions of his fellows. That ideal was the controlling force behind his every official act. In ch problem which came to him his one thought was to find the solution ed with this ennobled conception of survey, and, having found it, he was tircless in his efforts to make it ef- fective. In short, in his own on_ he epitomized his ideal of the i This was Col. Jones as his friends and co-work- ers saw him.

SECRETARY WILBUR OPPOSES FED-| ERAL EDUCATION DOMINATION. At a recent annual meeting of the American | Council on Education, Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Sec- retary of the Interior, opposed the establishement of a Federal Department of Education. Dr. Wilbur has been a leading figure in the American field of education for many 3 He is not only quali- fied to spe from the standpoint of practical educational experience but also as a student of history He based his antagonism to the proposal for Federal Department of Education on the theory that the creation of such a department would tend towards the centralization of educational ctivities e Far from gaining any information regarding . the movements of Dr. Charles T.

Secks Wider Field. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) Dr. Clarence True Wilson, head or the Metho- {dist Board of Temperance, apparently is not satis- fied to have on his hands the championing of pro- hibition, Senator Copeland and the Catholic Church, but has widened the field of his moral crusading by turning his guns on cigarettes. According to Dr. Wilson, the cigarette is a damnable thing, cor- |ruptive of health and -morals, and ought to be swiftly sent to join the demon rum. Dr. Wilson is after the “Tobacco Trust” which he says is responsible for enormously extending the arettes among the youth and the women It even employs brilliant and seduc- in the advancement of its nefarious st, in the eyes of the militant doctor, of monstrous evil.

P P ALONG LIFF’S DETOUR i By BAM HILL ! SR ol o GRS What Every Married Man Knows A native of Zulu says American women certainly know how to rule men. She don't know the half of it. ) Huh! Blinks: “Tom's all cut up this morning.” Jinks: “Bad news?” Blinks: “No, careless barber.” Matrimonial When a fellow is courtin’ a lady a look from her sets him up, and after he is married to her a look from her quiets him down. Interesting Information Kosta Lefteroff lives in Detroit. Any Family Man’s Views Ten-thousand dollar bills The Government may make, But just ten thousand bills Are what a family’ll make. Good Excuse ’ Teacher: “Robert, how does it happen you didn't get your night work done last night?” Robert: “Pa had to go to a lodge meeting.” Signs Is Signs H. C. M. saw this one on a lunch stand near Los Angeles— HAMBURGERS 5 CENTS We prefer a fast nickle to a slow dime. Safe Bet We'd hate to wed A lassie who makes whoopee! It's a safe bet Her kind ne’er could make soupee. It Ain’t Human Not To! “He's a wall-eyed liar.” “What makes you think that?” “He says when he is in the front seat no matter how reckless the driver is he never tries to put on the brakes.” Says Johnie I get a licking sometimes because I'm bad and other times because pa don’t dare talk back to ma and has to relieve his feelings by wal- loping me. Very Ordinary “They're pretty common.” “As common as gang murders in Chicago.” Longevity Note So live that you won’t have a bunch of rival gangsters ever want to take you for a ride. And They On You The great advantage of The party line Is that on neighbors you Can get a line. Etiquette Note—Maybe People who put on the dog com- mit a social error. The dog should be put only on a slice of rye, and after covering it with mustard an- other slice of rye should be put on it. More or Less True Many a boss who acts like a ten- ton truck around the office re- minds you of the little lizzie that edges off to the side of the road when he is around home. The fellow who marries the popu- lar girl, who knows her vegetables, and can get a date seven nights a week will probably live to learn how mother used to feel having to do all the housework alone. The boob who thinks the second hand car won't cost him more in the end than a new one, probably is the same guy who got married be- cause he believed two could live as cheaply as one. Another egotist, is a husband, who, thinks his wife spends all that money for scenery just to give HIS eyes a treat. A man can always make a hit with a woman by telling her how pretty she looks, but if a woman wants a man to give her credit for having the most marvelous intelli- gence, all she has to do is make him believe he is the most wonder- ful thing that ever came down the pike. Now and then you get into a home where the furniture is so un- comfortable it makes you wonder if the wife got it so her liege lord would spend his evenings at the (club grouching instead of sticking around home to do it. It's always safe to bet the more stockings a girl shows the less she knows about how to darn them. Life's biggest tragedy for a girl is to be born with a face so homely she has to hang a curtain in front of the mirror before she looks into it. There don't seem to be any more reason for a peeping Tom these days than there is for a buttonhook. ——e————— AUTOMOBILE LICENSES City Licenses for Automobile for the year of 1929 are due and pay- able June 1st, 1929.
