Big things are happening every day in this world of ours. Events are taking place which every well in- formed man and woman should know about. The trouble is that many of us are weak on geography.

They simply don’t know. But THE STAR bas come to the rescue with the very thing we need—am up- to-date map of the worid, with an index that simply teems with information— more than ten thogsand references in all—a map that answers the questions that arise in our daily read- ing of the news of the w_pr!d. And with this map is a device that makes every bit of this information in- stantly accessible—a de- vice which enables any one, froam adult to school child, to locate, in 3 few seconds, any city, country or island in the world. This deviee is called the Pleasants’ Instantaneous Finder. It is so simple that you wender why it was not thought of long ago—and yet it is so indispensable that it is only a question of time when it will be widely used. On the other side of the map of the world is 2 map of the United States, just as completely indexed, and with all the information keyed for use with the aid of the Finder.

IHARRISON PRAKES SOUTHERN IDEAL Materialism Compared With Old Principles at Davis Mansion Dedication. By the Associated Press. MONTGOMERY, Ala, June 4— Amendment of the federal Constitu- tion to embody some of the principles set forth in the constitution of the | Confederate states would bring many needed reforms, Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippl, declared here last night at ceremonies concluding the reopening and dedication of the first white house of the ConfedeTacy. “What a needed reform would be wrought,” said Senator Harrison, “if the Congress and the states would todsy amend the federal Constitution and follow the principles enunciated in the Confederate constitution ex- tending the term of the President and Vice President to six years and mak- ing them Ineligible for re-election. What an economy it would effect and what a saving to the taxpayers of the [country if that part of the Confederate constitution could be adopted by the federal government requiring a two- thirds vote of the Congress to make federal appropriations. . Tarit Principle. “And, Oh! that some of our present- day democrats, who, in their selfish desire to enrich a few at the expense of many: protect one section to the detriment of another. who have join- a protective tariff, would read and memorize that part of the Confud- erate constitution that condemned in the strongest possible language a protective tariff and unanimaously laid jdown the rule that the passage of any such law was forever prohibited by the Confederate congress.” Senator Harrison, who made the prin- cipal address at the dedication. as a shrine for the old south, of the mansion in which Jefferson Davis lived during the early days of the Confederacy, paid high tribute to Davis, asserting that ‘Jefferson Davis is truly the Oliver ican has been so little un- so maliciously misrepre- sented as Jefferson Davis." ator Harrison continued, adding that. the im- prisonment of Davis at Fort Monroe “is only exceeded in debased mackery by one incident in the annals of history and that was the crucifixion of the lowly Nazarene." Tribute to Army Survivors. High tribute also was paid by the speaker, to the survivors of the Confed- erate army gathered here to honor their leader. “Men of the gray and women of the sixties,”” said Senator Harrison, ad- dreesing them, “by vour magnificent examples of devotion and brawery and sacrifice. you made humanity better. By the qualities and virtues you ex- hibited- in that great struggle, patriot- ism was made more sublime, and I me say to you, fear not that in thi materialistic age the children of th: south will ever forget the principles for which you suffered and the priceless heritage that you have given us. We and our children will revere the spirit ice and devotion. We will your marvelous self- abnegation, heroic sacrifice and un- yielding, patriotism is the most glorious legacy with which the south is endowed. “1 never want to see the glories of the south forgotten in the maelstrom of 1 never want to see erected to the god of mammon.” JEFFERSON DAVIS’ LIFE EULOGIZED IN ADNRESS Representative Stevenson uhpnu Present Period With Civil War Aftermath. ‘The life and work of Jefferson Davis, Premident of the Confederac: gized by Representative W.
