LOOKING TO CONGRESS.
., It is doubtful that if ever before in peace time has the eyes
o a nation been so centered on a national body as the eyes of
America and the world are centered upon congress today.
From the millionaire to the small one-man business everyone
is wondering what will congress do and what can congress do.
All Europe is looking to congress for the world policy wonder
ing whether peace will be declared with Germany and how it will
be declared; whether the Allies can depend upon this country to
back up their demands.
Surely every senator and every member of congress of this
session has a big job ahead of him.
HOME MOVIES NEXT.
Favorite movies shown in the home, or home-brcwl movies
of domestic or local scenes, are within the possibilities of the im
mediate future. Harry Levey, New York producer, has an
nounced the perfection of a "movie disk" which will bring the
moving picture into the home just as the phonograph disk brings
grand opera and monologue.
According to Mr, Levey, by the use of a microscopic lens a
twelve-inch disk can be imprinted with pictures equivalent to
those contained in a standard film 300 feet long. These disks
Will probably bo put upon the market shortly. They will cost
about $1 apiece, and the projecting machine for showing them
will cost not more than ?25. Thus, at comparatively small ex
pense, the family parlor may become the competitor of the mov
ing picture house at the corner.
Blank disks are to bo sold also, upon which home-made
pictures mny be tuken, featuring the wedding, the commencement
exercises, the garden at its best or the mother cat and her six
kittens. These blanks will cost about 25 cents apiece and can be
developed and shown at once, just like, photograph films.
It is a prospect rich in possibilities, and the public picture
shows will need to look to their laurels with such rivalry in the
homes. When it comes to a record of the public taste, what
revelations will lie in the sales of movie disks! The public libra
ry and book shop shelves will fade into nothingness beside them.
Not by their works, but by their disks, shall ye know them.

A La Grande man who haa a hab
it of tensing his wife, was out driv
ing in the country with her, when
they met a farmer driving a span of
mules. Just as they were about to
pass the furmcr'a rig1 the mules turn
ed their heads toward the auto and
brayed vociferously. Turning co his
wife, the man cuttingly remarked,
"Kclatives of yours, I Buppose?"
"Yea," Baid his wife, sweetly, "by
marriuge." ,
The feller seemed diHmayed
Ah he stood there and surveyed
LSomc bits of broken bottle on the walk
f rom ma eye no nrusnea a tear,
So wo undertook to cheer
Mis glomy heart with optimistic talk.
"Friend, there is no use to cry,
Over spilt milk wipe your eye,"
,Wc told him, but tho poor man only
sighed,
'IWhat you any la very true,
It a u foolish thing to do
But it wasn't milk, my dear air,' he
replied.
A feller's position in this world
makes a wonderful lot of difference.
An ox-bricklayer, whose social stand
ing was nil a few years ago, became
a chiropractor, and now he's got a
place on the top luycr of society in

To Whom it May Concern':
Although we discovered un ad in

decided to pass it up.

Nowadays when you hear two men

We agree with liev. Huston thut
the greatest need of the world today
is humility. Hence, whenever we feel

SCOUTS AS TRAFFIC AIDS.
In Fort Smith, Ark., scouts wore
recently put on the Job of recording
their ohservntlons us to how well
driver of automobiles were obeying
trnfllc luws and reported that one
third of tho motorists observed did
not slow down for rullwtiy crossings
mid were otherwise criminally nell
Kent. As a result of this report ft more
stringent watch wns set on truflle
and safer conditions enforced.
Another traffic Job which won much
praise locally was the aid rendered
hy hoy scouts to the police depart
ment of Detroit In handling holiday
crowds on two of the city's busiest
corners. Squads carried long ropes
preventing pedestrians frfjm crossing
streets during vehicular frnftV ; when
the trnfllc direction .changed a squad
lender signaled and the boys hurried
to block the other 'Intersections. The
police say this, work was never so
well munnjeed before and greatly min
imized the number of accidents and
the prevalence of Jay walking.

Mesopotamian Language.
The characters of the huiKUuxe of
Mesopotamia, like the Ktfypthiu, were
originally hieroglyphic, and the sev
eral hundred groups of wedges by
means of which the language was ex
pressed in writing, may now be traced
to the original hieroglyphics. One of
the nrly picture-words was a cres
cent and star, and the picture was
employed to express an incanta
tion or exorcism, or anything capa
ble of driving the evil spirit from
the body of which it hud taken pos
session. - .
Good Manners Make for Comfort.
Good manners are mainly system in
society. In a larire sense the w hole
human race Is society. We count It
good practice to keep to the right, and
those who keep to the left are guilty
of bad manners as well as bad
practice. Good manners Is good sys
tem in behavior. System is always
labor saving, and we need to look to
our manners In this modern day for
that reason.

Hunting Gazelles From Autos.
The speed of the caelle has nl
ways made It exceedingly ditlicult to
hunt them, but now it Is a common
thing to see gazelle hunters In nutn
mobiles darting across the desvrt of
Morocco in chase of these speedy an
imals. The results of the hunt are
invarbibly greater than when horses
are used, because the animals become
tired out before overtaking the gazelles.
