THURSDAY, NOV. 7, 1929 ! An Eastern writer compares Mayor Jimmy Walker | with Mayor Okey Hall of the long ago. He says if it were not for Okey's whiskers they would look alike. But there is a big difference after all. Jim- my knows how to use iron as well as to wise- crack—and he knows when. And Okey had a trick| of winking the other eye—something that Jimmy hasn't learned. And Tammany has changed a lot, too, since Tweed. 3 % Daily Alaska Empire JOHN W.

(New York Times.) During the thousand years when Diana reigned in her sanctuary at Nemi she must have surveyed with pride the beauty of the lake on whose banks her temple stood. in the way of a goddess and peered into its silent | waters—else it would never have come to be known as “Diana’s Mirror.” She saw, too, bushes of luscmusl strawberries that grew in June, and masses of blue, white and purple hydrangeas throughout the Sum- mer. If her spirit still hovers about the sanctuary, she must weep for the pagan times when none| would have dared drain her lake. Each day she| must see the ever-increasing numbers gather on its shores. Nor are they the pious pilgrims of other days but only idle travelers. They have come to see what kind of barges, these, that once were | sunk to appease the mad desires of a Roman em- peror.
