In the early morning there may be a sense of futility but, | | later, clear mental vision enables | thinkers to plan wisely. The clergy | are under promising planetary in- |1luvl1cm which presage activity in clvic and Federal movements for | Inn?\an welfare.

Instead of the League of Nations there will be a banking system that extends be- neath the foundations of govern- ments in many parts of the world. In the future money and not gun powder will conquer nations. National Issues: Exposure of graft and corruption in many cities of the United States will attract at- tention, but public interest will' be ephemeral since reformers will be lured away from their legal battle lines. Astrologers stress the fact that,'as long as the public tolerates political conditions that permit. the grossest dishonesty and tyranny as practiced by the underworld, there will be grave peril to the nation. International Affairs: Hidden policies will cause anxiety in Wash- ington, D. C., where secret under- standings will be necessary among nations representing democracy, It is imperative to prevent the spread of subversive propaganda and to avoid what may appear to be perse- cution of alizns. November is to be a month of dangers internal as well as external. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of more than average good fortune.

Rodenberg of Juneau, who, when in the process of making the evening's pudding, discovered that the eggs she used each had a double yolk. Upon finishing the dozen she found that every egg was blessed with two yolks. So Mrs. Rodenberg thinks she got her money’s worth.
