Perhaps he will send men who knew Sutherland to LaQrande anyhow, though It will hardly be necessary unless the photographs show a pronounced resemblance. There are many things which make It seem doubtful If the man who died at LaQrande was Sutherland. Sutherland was a cool, calm Individual. He had friends In many parts of the country who would be willing to aid him. It seems hardly prob able that he would be the wretched hide-away seeking shelter night after night In the haystacks and beams near LaQrande. And yet you never can tell. Murder Is a terrible thing. The thought of having killed does terrible things to the most resolute men. Unless It becomes patently absurd to think that the La Qrande wanderer was Sutherland, It will be wise to make exhaustive efforts at Identification. Otherwise the LaQrande mystery may beeome Just another obstacle to bringing the Sutherland pursuit to an effective end. 1830 DEPRESSION 1930 TTOW bad to degression The question la on nearly " everybody Hps. isncouragea oj me n uiuot, iu In the large centers howl their doctrines of reform or revolu tion and stage demonstrations which get Into the picture papers. Nice people shudder. Politicians gabble of panaceas, but do as little as possible which Is probably lucky. Business prophets and statisticians put out long-winded dissertations, trying to be optlmlstio without really saying anything. Most of us keep plugging away, wondering Just how bad things really are, or will be, before they are better, doing what we think we can do for those who are obviously needy, trusting the tide will turn, as It always has turned. Here's an Interesting thing. Back In 1830, Just one hundred years ago, things were not so good. Europe was recovering from great wars and revolutions; industry was suffering the first disturbances of the machine age and Lord Macauley wrote an essay In The Edinburgh Review of January, 1830, from which woigucte as follows: "YpaTsee In almost every part of the annals of man kind how the Industry of Individuals, struggling up against wars, taxes, famines, conflagrations, mischievous prohibitions and more mischievous protections, oreates faster than governments ean squander and repairs whatever invaders can destroy. The present moment Is one of great distress. But how small will that distress appear when we think over the history of the last forty years a war compared with which all other wars was to link Into Insignificance; taxation, such as the most heavily taxed people of former times could not hare conceived; a debt larger than all the public debts that ever existed added together; the food of the people Studiously rendered dear; the ourrancy Impudently de based and Improvldently restored. "Yet is the country poorer than In 1780 T We fully bo Here that In spite of all the mlsgovernment of her rulers she has been becoming richer and richer. Now and then there has been a stoppage, now and then a retrogres sion; but as to the general contingency there can be no doubt K single breaker may recede but the tide Is evidently oomlng In. IF WE WERE TO PROPHESY THAT IN THE YEAR 1980, A POPULATION OP FIFTY MILLIONS, BETTER FED, CLAD AND LODGED THAN THE ENGLISH OF OUR TIMES WILL COVER THESE ISLANDS, that cultivation rich as that of a flower garden will be carried to the very tops of Ben Nexls and Helrelyn, that MACHINES CONSTRUCTED ON PRIN CIPLES YET UNDISCOVERED WILL BE IN EVERY HOUSE, THAT THERE WILL BE NO HIGHWAYS BUT RAILROADS, NO TRAVELING BUT BY STEAM, THAT OUR DEBT VAST AS IT MAY SEEM TO US WILL APPEAR TO OUR GRANDCHILDREN A TRIFLING ENCUMBRANCE, many people would think , us Insane." And so on, and so on, citing tukrj Instances and compari sons and finally: "We cannot absolutely prove that those are In error who tell us that society has reached the turning point, that we have soen our best days. But so said all who came before us and with Just as much apparent reason.'' What a remarkable prophesy! What a consoling thought for .hose of us who feel that this particular ebb tide of prosperity must turn! What profound Insight into political futilities! And yet the disturbing thing Is that In 1930 Just as in 1830 and 1730 and 1630, we look to luck and natural science and physical development to save us, and are almost as far from a scientific approach to human relations as ever. That's something to think over. Macnnlay, the optimist predicted the people of 1830 would climb out of their buslnens dopreanlon. Doubtless the pessi mists of the time predicted that people would go through de pressions again and again. What the world seems to need Is some wiaards who can show ns how to make progress move in straight lines Instead of circles. narentaae than about so personal A. for curvature, there's a lot to be .aid on both side, ot that matter. Curve, are quite pleasing this year, it seem, to u. Probably the reason that the Health Week committee In charge of the Judg ing and tho incidental beauty con test include curvature is that they are using blank, printed a year or two ago. A girl who had curve, then felt as ill at ea.e a. one whoie scapula isn't quite flat nowaday.. After all, it', rather doubtful If the Health Week girl, are to be pral.ed for the beauty contest.

It likely that the dang er of bad feeling which beauty con tests usually engender will be over shadowed by the benefit, ot the Judging. A more valuable health survey would Include inspection of all ill formed back, and leg., and would cooperate with lea. fortunate girls In improvement. It is unlikely that the present emphasis will do that.

VYASHINGTON, Nov. 21 Along " with the Democrats and the wet., organised laDor ana tne can didate, it endorsed came out on top of the heap in the congressional election.. Senator, and representatives V, nn ,l.n Inlmi. nrmtiir.ntlonH con- .IAA Inimical tn thftm were drl ven out In large number, during the nominating primaries, while la bor', friend, were nominated and retained. The same tendency con tinued In the election Among outstanding defeat, of candidates who had formal labor support were those of Senator Mc Master In South Dakota, Senator Robsion in Kentucky and former Senator Gerry of Rhode Island. All had been supported on the strength of their senatorial rec ords, but the defeat of McMnster and Robsion appear, to have-been attributable to tne uemocrouc landslide and labor leader, believe their successors are likely to prove as acceptable a. the Incumbents. None had been among labor'a fore roost champion.. On the other hand, labor .pokcsmen point to the elec tion of nearly a .core senatorial candidate, who had labor support and to the retirement or primary or election defeat of a. many who could be depended upon to have little sympathy for legislation which labor supports. Labor supplied the eitra push which hai terminated the scnnto rial career of Henry J. Allen of Knnsns, President Hoover', close friend and senatorial adviser, who will be succeeded by a Democrat named George J. McOill. Allen fathered tho famous Kansas In dustrial Court, which labor hated and bitterly fought. Another of la iu.,', net. hntea wns ex-Senntor William M. Butler, who lost to Marcus A. Coolidge In Massachu setts. The American Federation ot Labor makes no general list of Its endorsed candidates leaving en dorsements to state federations and locals, but the executive, of the 21 Btandnrd Railway organiza tion, unanimously called for the olectlon of 10 senatorial candidates, nine Republican, and 10 Demo crats. , At the top of the list stood Sen ator George W. Norrls ot Nebras ka, who as chairman of the Sen ate Judiciary Committee ba been helpful and sympathetic to such labor-sponsored mensures as the anti-Junction legislation as well as to other progressive ntid humani tarian measures. Norrls defented hit Deniacratic opponent, former SSennlor fmcucoca, oy a uxiv Ma jority. The others who won out were Senator Sheppnrd in Texas, Sen ator Borah In Idaho, Edward P. Uostlgan In Colorado, Senator Couznu. In Michigan, Secretary of Labor Davis in Pennsylvania, Gov ernor Huey P. Long, In Louisiana, Senator McNnrj in Oregon, Senntor Walsh In Montana, Senntor Cap per in Knnsns, former Senator M. M. Neely In West Virginia, Con gressman Cordell Hull in Tennes see, former Congressman James J. Byrne, in South Carolina who with labor support defeated Sena tor lllease in the primary; Sena tor Brat ton In New Mexico, and Senator Harris of Georgio, whom labor aided in his primary tight. The more important of the suc cessful labor endorsees happen to be dry Norvis, Derail, t'ostlgan, Walsh, Hull ami Neely. In fact, only three or four of the whole lit were wet. In no case, however, did the dry records of these candi date, hsve anything to do with their endorsements. In the next Congress labor will especially be looking to its friends - -- that nn Imnortnnf ac tion Is taken In the coming short session of the present Congress to lend fights for the passage of anti-juni'tion legislation and ef fective measures to combat unem ployment. In the last session the only major achievement claimed by the A.

Senator from New ork Former Commissioner of Health, New York City NOTHING la more disturbing than going to bed at night and not being able to sleep. It makes the night hideous and ruina the happiness of the following day. Sleeplessness or insomnia I. largely a matter of habit, a bad habit. Excessive fatigue, worry, lack of fresh air and physical ex ercise, are the main cnuBca leading to insomnia. One should acquire the habit of absolutely dropping woek nud cure, nt bed-time. I have told you of Mr. Henry Olewa who aaid he mode Fourteenth Street the dividing lino in his life. Ho would not permit himself to think of business when he reached that street on his way home at night. People resort to nil sort, of methods to induce sleep. The count ing of sheep and other uch fan tastic mental games have been tried by all of us but usually with out beneficial results. If you are restless and cannot sleep do not worry about it. Dwel ling on the thought that you are having difficulty in sleeping will keep you awake. Relax in bed, and even if you aro awake, you are af fording rest to your body. Rest will come only with relaxation and thot will be followed by sleep. Sleep is Nnturc'. way of rejuv enating the body. Sleep should be sufficient in dtirntion and it should bo uninterrupted. The avernge number of hours of sleep required by an adult is from seven to nine hours. Growing children require more sleep than adults. Sleep come, most readily when the .tomach i. practically empty. If the drinking of water induces bladder action during the night it ia better to avoid late drinking. Where possible sleeo outdoor, or in a room open to fresh sir. Out door sleeping is more restful and beneficial than indoor sleeping. Never tnko drugs for sleepless ness. Once you start reiving oo medicine for sleep, you begin a hnbit that Is often difficult to break. , Plenty of exercise in the open during the tiny i essentinl for gooil sleep at night. Lot your eve ning meal be u wholesome one without spices ntid condiments. Avoid nil stimulants. e Let me repeat make sure there Is plenty of fresh air in your bed room. You can be assured of this if nil the windows of your sleeping chamber nro open. A warm bath just before going to bed is n groat aid in relaxing Ihe body nnd preparing for a good night's sleep. Sleep may be en couraged by drinking a glas. of wnrm milk. ... ,. If you are worried and cannot relax in bed. It Is often a good plan to read something diverting. Do not rend exciting books in an nttenipt to relax. A book that re quires concentration will help you quiet the mind and' induco sleep. If you continue having insomnia In spite of these measures consult with your physician. Continued lack of sleep is injurious to the bodv. There are many nerve dis orders that" cause insomnin. Such disorders should be under the per sonal supervision of your physician. r TOM SIMS' BARBS PE aren't very keen on foreign ..nUnn,. ki.t n'uxbnv and i Ul'l. inn, ...... j Greece sound pretty goud around Thanksgiving time.
