This wrong, and should not continue. To secure to each laborer the whole product of his labor, or as near- ly as possible, is a worthy object of any good government. “Useless labor and idleness are heavy pensioners upon useful labor, robbing it of a large portion of its just right. The only remedy for this is to, so far as pos- sible, drive useless labor and idleness out of existence. . labor is the common burden of the race, so the effort of some to shift their share of the burden onto the shoulders of others is the great durable curse of the race.”—From public speeches and papers of Abraham Lincoln, Just Think of It HERE'S got to be a simple law, an 18th amendment, a muzzle or some- thing put on the archeologists. Just as we get to considering the gorilla with re- sia due from possible descendants, mg comes Dr. Edward Chiera, pro- fessor of Assyriology at University of Pennsylvania, with results of study of stone tablets found in Nippur, on the Eu- phates river. These tablets clearly ex- plain that man descended from the sheep, or goat family. There are men, today, who perform as sheep, or goats to substantiate Prof. Chiera’s discovery. But, day by day, in every way, the scientists are making it harder for us to get our ancestry on Straight. Maybe our surcease can come only thru pesng. a law against it.

The supreme and simple test is in rea] estate, as Florida will be glad to learn from the following incident: ' The neighbors of Mrs. Cora Williams, | at Los Angeles, viewed with alarm her practice of appearing in public barefooted and had a guardian appointed for her, on the ground that she was mentally un- balanced. Upon a hearing in the superior court, Mrs. Williams proved that she had recently “swung a $100,000 real estate deal.” Whereupon, the court promptly restored her to competency and the neighbors went back home viewing her mentality with great admiration. No question whatever about the mentality of a lady, barefoot or in hip boots, who can Swing a $100,000 real estate deal. She may be crazy, but she ain't no fool, as they say in Oregon. 2 2- Answers to Y Q How old was Betty | When she played in “Peter “pan,” j! and how old is she now? |} ‘A.

The man whose life he threatened publicly to stamp out—and he did his best to execute the threat to the letter—is charged with the murder of a friend who stepped into a bullet's trajectory “It is almost beyond belief that these conditions prevail in the United States. It is almost incredible that an editor should be constantly in peril of jail and even of his life for assertion and defense of the mere essentials of democracy. It can hardly be paralleled that a defeated office-holder should seek the physical de- struction of the man who roused the voters to take his position from him “New Mexico owes it to her name and her place in the American commonwealth | Leahy, whose 1 trial of the ago were un and unrestrained of the American to vindicate Magee completely and to place Leahy where his mental vagaries can perhaps be restrained, or at least where they cannot menace the life of his opponents and the foundations of repub- lican government in the state.’ Fine, but Impossible pee that fine old romancer and | professional bear-baiter to Alfonso XIII, being accused of attacking Spanish royalty for the money that’s in it, comes back with a charming proposition, to-wit: Ibanez will open the books of his pub- lishers to public inspection, provided Al- | fonso will give like publicity to his | sources of income.

It certainly would, and it would be one instance in which Amer- | ica would not be “isolated.” But Senor Ibanez needn't worry about his challenge being accepted by King Al- fonso, or any other potentate, monarchial, financial, or otherwise. The powerful rich will see to it that no such precedent is established. Dowager Queen Maria, of Spain, says that Spain never saw “spontaneous galety” until Ambassador Moore arrived.
