The proper place for a monster Lindbergh celebration is St. Louls, where citizens had enoygh faith in him to furnish financial backing at a time when nobody else shared the faith, That dancer who set a world rec- ord with 145 continuous iours of dancing, with 1642 girl partners, | had a magnificent opportunity to| step on many a toe and be excused because of feeling tired.

CHAMBERLIN'S ASPIRATIONS Long distance aviators are good sportsmen, and when one of their number succeeds in making an epochal flight they all join in the | general congratulations. Thus, when | Lindbergh flew to Parls, stealing a march upon him, Chamberlin, still | in New York, concealed his chagrin at & rival’s success—if he had any to conceal—and agreed Lindbergh was entitled to all the honors due him for the astonishing feat. But the world offers many more chances for epochal flights than & trip from New York to Paris. Chamberlin, looking about for a new record, apparently has decided upon one offering a distance of 600 | miles more, He would fly to Ber- lin, and should he succeed it will be but a shert time, perhaps, before another flier makes an even longer non-stop flight. Chamberlin, noting all the public | acelaim has been accorded | Lindbergh, and possibly also noting | the disappointment in other Ruro- | pean capitals over the failure tu‘l make a circle air trip of most of | the European countries, evidently | has it in mind to take n'l\nulagw; of tids situation if he can. that THAT NEW BRIDGE AT BUFFALO The new international bridge be- Fort Erie, Ont., tween Buffalo and which has just opened for traffic, cost $4,500 . and qualifies as one of the most impressive spans on the continent.

Long before tunnels were constructed under the Hudson | river at New York a railroad tunnel | existed under the Detroit river be- tween Port Huron, Mich, and Sarnia, Ont. But there has been a need for better facilities for autoists all along the border. At Detroit, un- less one happens to be on a train, the only way to get to Windsor, Ont.—now offering special induce- ments to Americans in the form of | moisture—is by way of ferries; and | needless to say, the boats are taxed | to the limit, it usually being necee- sary for auto drivers to wait their' turn before being able to cross on | the boats. Detroit could well show some of the progress in bridge building which has been evidenced at Buffalo. SIX STATE! The fraternal order of Eagles has been battling for old age pensions for many years. Whenever a legis- lla'ur meets the Eagles are ‘‘on i the job.” They have been at it iu Connecticut, but with scarcely any results other than the propaganda incident to having their bills, or old age pension bill that they favored, 1eported on in committee. Reports so far have been unformly unfavor- | able. That has been the history of | the movement throughout all of the New England states, except in Mas- sachusetts, where the e has been brought to a vote and nearly won. ! But there haye been some suc- cosses, Six states and the territory of Alaska have throwh protecting {arms around the dependent and worthy aged. The Eagles are justi- fled in thinking their efforts have not been entirely in vain. The latest state to enter this cate- | gory is Maryland. Tts old age pen- sion law went into effect, on June 1, having been passed by the last legis- lature and signed by Governor Ritchie. Maryland is regarded as a “conservative state,” whatever that may mean; but in advanced legisla- tion it usually is found on the band wagon. Massachusetts regarded as the leader in New England respect- ing “untried and novel” legislation, has on several occasions gone far in the support of an old age pension aw, and in all probability it will be the first state in New England to adopt the leglslation, assuming that at recurring meetings of the general court the fssue will continue to be pressed. The six states which now have old laws are Maryland, Kentucky, Montana, : and the ter- age pension Wisconsin, Nevada and Colorad: ritory of Alaska. How these laws were brought about can be determined from the history of the movement in Mary- land. It was in 1924 that the Eagles brought forth their first Model Old bill died in committee. But the Eagles are accustomed to this result after a first effort. It was brought forth during repeated meetings of the legislature, the public mind got the issues involved, “educated” to the pensions, and accustoned to the public value of old age despite the carlicr opposition from conservative people who saw in it another attempt to raid the puglic tax till, it gained headway steadily until the bill was passed this year. Ritehie, of the out- Union, refully be- was Governor one standing governors considered it long and ¢ fore lis signature to the bill, which after Wisconsin in the is modeled the county option law.

The ! resorted to when ! | ployed legal talent to give it “a ride | through the courts.” The flexible tariff law is one of those things which seems to work mostly in one direction. Primarily invented to yleld a quick change in the tariff and make it possible to follow the varying changes in prices of foreign commodities entering this it 1s curious to note that been on the upgrade. The two down- ward changes have been unimport- ant, being on paint brush handles and Bobwhite quail. The flexible tariff authorizes the President to increase or lower duties as much as 50 per cent. One would think that it would never be neces- sary to go the extreme length of 50 per cent in a change of duties, but that has frequently occurred, the last time on February 23, when the President ordered the duty on pig iron increased from 76 cents a ton of 50 per cent. President Coolidge evidently be- lieves in working the sliding tariff to the limit, whereas Presdent Hard- ing made no changes in the tarift rates in the first twelve months of its operation before his death in August, 1923. President Coolidge, since taking office, has made the 17 changes. His first change, in March, 1924, were in the duties on wheat, flour, milifeeds, bran, etc., on which he increased the rates approximate- 1y 50 per cent, the limit allowed un- der the law. He has been jacking | up the tariff with consistent regular- jity ever since. Some opposition and criticism naturally has resulted, and importers are inclined to begin a legal warfare to have t%eir rights decided. Article One, sections one and eight of the Constitution seem to be quite clear on the point. Section one delegates the legislative power to Congress, and Section eight gumnorlzes Congress to levy and col- lect duties, imposts, taxes, etc. It is iclear from this, therefore, that the power to fix the amount of a future tax lles with Congress alone and cannot be dclegated to the Presi- dent, as the flexible law has it. The case that is wending its way to the highest court has some points of interest. Under a proclamation of the President the duty on barium dioxide was raised from 4 cents a pound to 6 cents a pound. The im- porting firm paid under protest, but the U. S. board of gencral apprais- ers, which has since into a customs been changed court, upheld the constitutionality of the provision at- { tacked and affirmed the assessment. On appeal, the U. S. court of cus- toms aflirmed the decision, where- upon an appeal to the Supreme Court was taken. Whether the high- est court will grant a review and hear arguments on the case will be decided at the final meeting of the court on June 6. In case the review is granted, arguments cannot be heard until October. It would scem that the conten- tion of Senator others, Borah and many including numerous Demo- crats in Congress, that the flexible tariff law illegally dclegated the legislative power of Congress to the President, is féunded on logic. Sup- porters of the sliding tariff, who iclaim that the power delegated is similar to that delegated to the In- terstate Commerce Commission in the making of railroad rates, srem to take a rather far-fetched example for comparison, The flexible tariff principle is sup- posed to confirm to the difference in cost of production at home and duction abroad, however, so that the tariff changes made by the admin- istration the Bu work than of scientific com- parison of costs of production.

Never in the history of this section of the country have the prin- cipal intercity highways been so crowded with motor vehicles. And never before, it might be added, has 80 much individual and collective disgust been experessed by drivers. North, south, east and west in New England long lines of automo- biles crawled up hill and down dale. It was reported that north of Spring- field & solid phalanx of machines | Stretched for a distance of six miles j without a break, bumpers almost touching bumpers and causing the worst traffic conditions known to that section. At the eastern end of Connecticut a similar situation was created, three cars running abreast on the main road to New York and trolleys being hampered in their movements. The death toll in New England for the week-end, including the holi- day, was 19, a fact which speaks for itself in emphasizing conditions. Traffic authorities are agreed that wider roads are essential and are laying their plans for the future to the attainment of this object. They also realize that a single trunk road between cities will no longer answer the purpose and are developing a network of good roads which will relieve traffic on the principal high- ways. Especial attention must be paid to developing these roads at once. It is the answer to cengestion. Predictions are made that before long legislatures will impose further restrictions on driving so that it will be illegal to proceed at a fast pace. But this will not correct the situa- tion. So long as automobiles are made to move swiftly, drivers will { govern themselves accordingly. The laws now on the statute books are sufficient to punish operators for endangering the lives and property of others. But motor vehicle cases before the courts are constantly in- creasing, indicating that the laws are not taken too seriously. The solution of a problem that is a real problem seems to be better, wider roads and more of them. Fverybody should know how to ride a horse. It is practically es- sential In these piping times of peace that each and every one of us should know how to harness, mount and ride a horse. Later, in our sec- ond lesson, we will explain the fine points of the art, such as shooting Indians from the saddle and pick- ing up handkerchiefs with one's teeth while going at full speed. In- cidentally, the last time we saw a man pick up a handkerchief with his teeth while going at full speed was in Cheyenne in the dear old of 1849. We hear that he later became able to move the left corner of his mouth and in 1915 was able to speak almost understandably. Yirst, and probably one of the niost important items of the game, is to obtain a horse. Some authori- ties di as to whether or not a horse is actually needed but we have always held that the few pennies spent will recompensate the novice at the game and besides what is horizback riding without the horse? Practically the same as canoeing or making pretzels. There are several ways of obtain- ing a hors>. The first and one of the most popular methods is to capture a wild stal'isn in the hills of Mon- tana. Lately though, we hear that the Montana 8. P. C. A. had pro- hibited more than six horses to a person so it hardly seems worth the trouble of the long bicycle ride cut there and back for a mere handful of horses. The second way to obtain one of the “Dobbins” is to lassoo a common milk team horse or the groccry de, livery animal. Care should be fakén to rope the horse on the day the grocery store is not using the two ton truck as many amateur horse ropers suffer much chagrin upon finding that, after a thrilling strug- gle, they have succeeded in bringing to the landing net a motor vehicle. A horse may easily be distingulshed because of its hooves. Practically every horse in existence, with a few exceptions, has four feet tapering off to hooves. Upon approaching the animal stand in an Inviting position, say at a 45 degree angle, and as the | beast kicks, notice if he is shod with four hooves. If so—there is your prey. Upon finding the horse one has but to borrow a common ordinary piece of rope somewhat longer than tha ordinary five cent cigar. Make a loop in this and twirl it around your head. At first you might knock off somebody's glasses and maybe half struggle yourself but remember—the horse roper's first rule is “Birds of a feather flock to- gether” and keeping this in mind, one should be able to easily rope a horse. Now that the animal is sccurely roped, thrown and branded ready for ahipment in car load and half carload lots, F. O. B. Vickshurg, all one has to do is to arrange the saddle so that one, if desirous to try the zame, may sit straddling the horse’s back with one foot EACH SIDE of the horse. This is im- portant. Many novices try riding with only one foot on the horse or standing on his back, a sloppy pro ceedure which does not tend to real 1 used to recite when I was a little bit of a girl many, many years ago.

The horse will now arise, shake his head and give a mischievous leap through some nearby plate glass window. Never mind this, tite beast is only playful. Only when the animal heads for the brick wall on the left need you become wor- ried. Now that you have become wor- ried and the brick wall seems to be the next stopping point of the ani- mal, simply loosen both hands and feet and slip—DO NOT FALL— easily from the horse's back.

SEPARATED DURING WAR, UNITED HERE Assyrian Family’s Home Tieg Rejoined by Coincidence Drawn together through a powee which must have been at work since they were separated at the outbrealy of the World War a man was united with his wife and child here through the most unusual coincle dence. The little family was separated in their home in Urmia, Persia, where the Assyrians were being perse- cuted. Believing that his wife and two year old boy were massacredy the father made his way to the United States and became a citizen, He settled in this city which inci= dentally holds claim to the second largest Assyrlan population in the United States. = In the meantime his wife escaped fatal injury and made her way on foot hundreds of miles over the Caucasus mountains, through the oil flelds of Georgia, through the Russlan-Austrian lines and across Russia to Norway. It took her six years to make the trip and shortly after she arrived she heard that her husband had also escaped -injury and she began plans to communi- cate with him in the United States, Knowing that he must have str ed in one.of the three Assyrian colo- nies, Chicago, Ill, New Britain, or Newark, cablegrams were sent to men in these cities who might be working among her fellow countrys men, One morning a cablegram reach- ed ex-Mayor George A. Quigley with a request that he do what he could to aid the woman in finding her husband. Just 10 minutes later, according to Mr. Quigley, a man of Assyrian extraction came into his office and asked him to aid him in locating the visitor's wife. It so hap- pened that the man was the hus- band and he had also heard his wife had survived and made her way to Norway. He showed Mr, Quigley a photograph of his wife and child. The mother was & heau- tiful woman who looked to be in the early 20's. Money was sent to her and she arrived with her son who was then about cight years old. Instead of the beautiful dark-haired wife whom he left in Persia he found a woman who appeared to be about 60 years of age. Bhe was broken in health as the result of her long tramp through Europe. As both mother and son were in poor health the father decided to book passage to California where the weather is similiar to that of their native home. According to the last geports the little family has re- gained much of its former happis ness and health in its new home.
