RENEW TONG T O .
A m 12 YEARS;
AGAIN OUR LOSS
Within the past three months, the two greatest writ­
ers of the present age have been called by the grim read­
er. Joseph Conrad and Anatole France, recognized by
leading authorities to have been the greatest writers de­
veloped during the past fifty years have both been called
within the year.
Although classed as the two greatest writers, the
works of these men were as different as night from day.
France, the romanticist, the conjurer with things myster­
ious to the ordinary man, achieved his recognition and his
greatest fame among the people of the romance states,
Italy, Spain. F n ice Although his works were widely
read and appreci ted in the English speaking countries,
since they suffered no loss through translation, they still
hold their greatest popularity in those countries. His
“ Crime of Sylvestre Bonnard, “ At the Sign of the Reine
Peduque,” “ Le Jongleur de Notre Dame,” the “ Revolt
of the Angels” and the “ Opinions of Jerome Coignar.d”
are masterpieces in delicately handled subjects, which
appeal to a romance loving people.
Conrad, the virile, the powerful, attained his greatest
popularity among the readers of good literature in the
English speaking countries. Bora in Poland, at an early
age a rover, Conrad was recognized as the greatest writ­
er of the English language living, during his last few
years on earth. With the appeal of a Jack London novel,
hut with infinitely better subjects, more beautifully
handled, Conrad late in life reached the peak striven for
by every writer, a recognized leader in the literary world.
His “ The Rover,” and the “ Nigger of the Narcissus” will
go down in history with Emerson and Dickens as master­
pieces in literature of the English language.

LONDON, Oct. 17. — Unem­
ployment is again increasing in
England by leaps and bounds.
Though an increase in unem­
ployment is generally expected
during the early autum n months,
the increase this year is so rapid
th a t it has occasioned considerable
surprise and not a little worry.
Political circles, opposed to the
government, have made the most
of this increase and it has been
made the basis of pessimistic pre­
dictions on the fu tu re 6f British
trade. Politiciams blame the in­
creased unemployment on every­
thing from th e Dawes plan to the
abolition of th e ta riff upon auto­
mobiles.
D uring th e last ten weeks ap­
proxim ately 150,000 people have
been added to the ranks of the
unemployed.
N evertheless the
statistics of the M inistry of La­
bor show th a t the total unem­
ployed are still 137,000 less than
a t the beginning of the present
year.
On Jan u ary 1, 1924, th ere were
1,289,000 registered unemployed
in G reat B ritain and N orthern
Ireland.
This figure began to
increase during Jan u ary and
steadily declined until it reached
1,052,000 a t the end of July. In
August the num ber of the unem­
ployed began to ascend, and by
the end of the m onth i t . had
reached 1,152,000 and still stead­
ily increases.

BOARD MEMBERS OUT
KLAMATH FALLS, Oct. 17. —
In the face of a le tte r stating th at
the California-Oregon Power com­
pany would refuse to cooperate
in furnishing power and extend-'

the present board of directors. By
a decisive m argin they placed in
office R, E. B ra d b u ry a n d Jo sep h

of the U. S. reclam ation service
and th e power company in the

A b itter fight developed just
before the election. Bradbury and

the old regime. Land-owners to
the num ber of 244, holding ap­
proxim ately 50,000 acres of ir­

PARIS, Oct. 17. — Soup in
France is a daily dish so the chef

Celery-root makes a favorite one. !
Wash and cut into small pieces
fresh celery-root in sufficient
quantity. A large stalk is enough
for four persons.
Clean and cut the same amount
of potatoes and let cook together
with a little water, salt and pep­

the moment of serving add a large
piece of fresh butter and one-
half a glass of fresh cream.
Serve with freshly fried crou­
