Les Cogoulards of the United States are elated to have one of their number on the Supreme Court, even though he got there by not disclosing his connection. Politically, the action of Roosevelt in appointing a man to an office as important as a justiceship of preme Court without finding about the charges filed against blunder of the first magnitude. Ellis Parker Butler, the writer who died recently and who wrote many books, will remain best known as the “Pigs Is Pigs,” after the freight agent’s historic declaration that’s what they were.

The act, passed on November 8, 1809, read as folows: “Be it enacted by the General As- sembly of the State of Tennessee that the Mayor and Aldermen of the town of Nash- ville, and they are hereby vested with full power and authority to make ard pro- vide for the drawing and conclusion of a! lottery for the purpose of bringing water into said town, under such rules and_ re- strictions and regulations as they may deem proper. “Provided they do not by said lottery, gain more than the net sum of $8,000, which said moneys, or so much thereof as they may raise by virtue of said lottery, | shall form a fund, to be then expended in bringing water into said town, and through the different streets thereof, for the gen- eral benefit of the inhabitants.” The lottery, heid according" to « used for the specified purpose, .., CRIME IN THE UNITED STATES Chief G man, J. Edgar Hoover, in a recent article in the “Casualty Insuror,”’ an insurance magazine, stated that there are 4,300,000 persons in the United States who are engaged in the commission of felonies, | Squaily weather continues in} according to the Temperance Facts Bureau. Last year a murder was committed every forty minutes; a robbery every ten minutes; a burglary every two minutes; a_ larceny every 44 seconds. The total known num- ber of major crimes committed during the year was 1,333,526, to which should be added a large number of crimes not re- ported to any agency for crime apprehen- sion, and the millions of minor offenses. Mr. Hoover places the annual cost of crime to the people of the United States at $15,- joan, with heavy rainfall at Mi- | 000,000,000. In other words every time the clock ticks off a second we pay $387 for crime. The burderton every Amer- ican, including the children, is month. A family of five, paying $50 per month for rent, pays a like amount on the average, to keep up our jails and other penal institutions, our criminal courts and our agencies for crime apprehensiqn. For every dollar we pay for college education we pay $32 for crime. NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN ‘ There are individuals in Key West of middle age who believe that they are too old to study, that youth is the time for mental development and that once a per- son passes forty the day of learning is past. ‘They might be interested in opinion of Frank N. Freeman, professor of educational psychology at the University of Chicago, who says that adults’ up to middle life can learn better than chien and as well as youths.“ Adults,? ‘are likely to regard the bedi “if et- fort as an indication that they are past the learning period’? when matter of fact serious learning requires and application.” The real obstacles to adult study, asa he finds, are a decline in curiosity, preoccupa- | tion with the business of making a living, lack of guidance and compulsion to learn. In other words, the older persons do care to learn if it requires effort which is | not much of a compliment for the average adult.

A site for the well was selected yesterday afternoon on the city’s incinerator site. Ig the formation here approximates that) at other sectiong of the state with which he is familiar, not more than a month will be re- quired to reach a depth of 2,000 to 2,500 feet, Mr. Scroggins de- clares, and it is at that depth he; expects to find water. If it is necessary to go deeper, the first! test will be carried to a depth of 4,000 feet, but Mr. Scroggins and his associates are of the belief! that this depth will not prove to be necessary, as it is expected that water will be found before that depth is reached.
