"i One hundred and eighty years after hia b'rth at a simple farm house in Virginia admirers, of Thomas Jefferson have launched a campaign to acquire'as a nation al memorial to the author of the Declaration of Independence the Jefferson family home of Mbnti cello, Imilt. on the old farm near the spot where he was born. Every one of the great men who helped to found, this repub lic, whose privileges we . today have been thus, enabled to enjoy, deserves not only an abiding place in the memory of every true Am erican, but a concrete evidence of that grateful remembrance. - Certainly in '.this group of Im mortals. Thomas Jefferson occu pies a conspicuous seat of honor. The promoters of the memorial campaign should, therefore, ex perience little difficulty In secur ing the funds needed to secure the! Jefferson home as a national heir loom. , j Monticello is espciallv adapted to the purpose of honoring Tho mas Jefferson's memory because it is so intimately connected with bis daily life. He chose, the site, helped with the clearing of the land, drew . the designs for ' the house, selected the stone and timber, planned the gardens, shrubberies tnd roadways, .ar ranged the rooms and interior decorations and never abated his close management of everything connected with the estate, how ever heavy his public cares and duties. - j m- ; , Should the plans under way be carried to a successful conclusion visitors to the capitol!'wlll Include in the sight-seeing a -visits lo Monticello as they now dot to Mount Vernon. In the beauty of its setting Monticello is a worthy rival of Mount " Vernon. Inj the eyes of his countrymen it has the added value that this, one of the, most picturesque homes in Amer ica, was designed by the same hand- and' brain that composed the Declaration of Independence.

' a A, " -' - A Tne Tales, a young nrsf Base man should observe in fielding his position are not many but ex tremely important.. " One of .the most Important of .all Is to get th? correct position of the feet on the base for a put out. -t . Nearly every beginner tries to touch, the bag with his right ( foot, wh'ch Is wrong. It forces 'him to cross his legs, lie should nse his lefjt foot In touching the ;ba9 to irke a put-out. " This rule Is essentia1. Do not violate it: Get started right. -? A ) - Xearn Thjpre to Stand - Each f young1 first ' baseman shonld determine for himself : jwhere -to stand In the field when 'there-Is no runner on .first? good rule is to play about 15 feet away trQm first base towards second, and about lQ'feet or more outside: the baseline, a But,' if a first baseman is weak on catch ing grounders to his right, he should play still farther towards tecond so i that "more of ' the gruonder fwill come'to his left. Vice versaf if he if he is weak on ground balls . to his A left, he houfd pta" close to first base so that more of them will come to his right! I Each .player must de cide on thiis point for himself. The abve, however, applies on'y to Scales where no . runners are oh bases. If there is a man on first, the firet baseman should stand on the bag, ready to re- ( ceive a .throw from the pitcher. As soon ; as the pitcher starts to piNrh, he Tuns to his fielding po sition. I f r ' ' A : ? ' I'M 'a; ' VitclHr Covers for Bunts a When j playing for a bunt, the first baseman should have a defi nite understanding,with the pitch er as to who is to cover the base.

He rattles the whole apartment when he walks, but this x person walks ,l?ke he didn't want to be heard." j Just then- a dirty arm In a ragged, sleeve, shot around the corner of the porch, grabbing the milk bottle 'around the neck. A "IleyA'you! crpaked the bot tle, but was not heard- "Aw," growled a low t. voice, "it's nothing but an old empty bottleA Ain't even any mony in it. Well.

"Just my luck," growled the same whenever the thought comes up the gentle sex indicates a substan tial support . of the League. There is a feeling in their; hearts that, in spite of any inherent weakness, ea in the League, if is still an agency fir the extension of peace. There i also a realization that the League would be Immensely strengthened by American partici-r pation. -It is also realized that all the detailed objections to the constitution of the League could have been corrected atj the time of theiri di.stussion and fan be still. Therefore, objection to America's having membership ; an such a world organization is like refusing membership in a union of peace and good will. In spite Of para lyzing conditions the .League has accomplished much already and everything it has done has the backing , of the best American sentiment. It has. a home and a strong: working" organization. There are fifty-two nations on its membership roll and some others eagerly waiting in the ante-room. It has taken the lead in great humanitarian crusades. .It has created a tribunal of world jus tice. It has already prevented several peoples from resorting to the sword. It has j furnished a clearing house for national and international treaties and almost put an end to secret diplomacy. It furnishes a ; compact reference body for any great emergency. It is the governor on the engine that makes the' world go 'round. 'Its moral possibilities are boundless. These are qualities; that appeal with impressive fervor to 'the feminine mind. 1 ASK SHERLOCK,' SIR ARTHUR The' wife bluntly , announces that under fco circumstances would she think of' living in the White House for a moment.

It it is true, as Sir Arthur Co- nan Doyle 'thinks tt may be, that the bug which bit lyord Carnar von was guided by the spirit of Tut-Ankh-Amun, what on earth is going ta happen to the rest of us?. ! TheJ mortality among press paragraphers is going to be terri ble. The friends of the cartoon ists might as well begin ordering flowers now. Stage monologists and dialoguists will vanish from the face of the earth.. There won't be a headline writer left in Chris tendom and no end of ' schools of science will have to shut down for lack of, professors. The outlook seems doleful; ' in deed. Yet cheer tip. There is plenty of room for s hope thai Sir Arthur may have his wires all twisted. Let him look at the mat ter thrqugh the eys of Sherlock Holmes, student of human nature, and he'll have to admit that him self. ' For If there was1 any man liv ing to whom Tutshpuld have' been grateful it 'was Carnarvon. .Who that is human or'ever was human wouldn't thank the manwho dug him out of a dark place where he'd been walled up for S5 00 years and gave him greater fame than he'd ever known before, made him the glass of fashion and the mold of fdrlti and established him as a world fad? j . j j True, many of us have taken great liberties with his name and general repute. But that is and always has been one of the ac cepted penalties of fame, and there is every Indication that Tut was fond of fame ' In his prime.. And even If he might be inclined to.be resentful of such liberties, isn't there any statute of limita tions? Even the divinity jwhich doth hedge a king can't be ex pected to compel awe after 3500 years, at least not from people who never were in his Jurisdic tion.. The chances are that Tut would be the first man, alive or dead, to pay tribute to Jhis deliverer. Think what he has done. for this benighted century!" he would ej claim. ' "He has given it a chance to look on me and my glory. Truly, he is a man among count less millions. Republics may be ungrateful, but surely this foolish modern world must know better, than to expect such ingratitude as that from a monarch who built as fine a tomb in honor of himself as I did." A i A KIXSTEIX EXIMRSED Answer to yesterday' After months of anxious sus pense, fluctuating from the heights, of hope to the depths of despair, the public at last breathes freely again. The conclusive test has taken place. Doubt and mis giving have- been set at rest. Science has vindicated Albert Einstein and established the law of relativity. ' ; It Is all true gloriously true the sun can draw the stellar rays to the extent of one and sevent'y-fpur-hnndredths seconds of arc exactly ,as. Einstein predicted.' What effect thisji will eventually have, on fre future pf the race i3, of course.) still problematical. But the fact remains and whatever the consequences civilization will have to face them. Yet the world real ly has no cause for alarm. (A1 though we didn't know it. the sun has been - deflecting stellar rays long before the total, eclipse of 1923 enabled: us to verify the theory or I Eihstein first ! pro pounded it. ; : , But it's nice to know it's set tled, j It. will stop so many argu ments ahd prevent' so many family divisions. - A A i j BABY t !-. -. - A ; -. . i j I." ; CJGGIE SEWING , MACHINES We ; hate a large stock of 'used machines.
