Missionaries From China.

ers in the doctrine of Confucius
ire sending missionaries to the
United States. We’ve been sending
nit missionaries to their country
tor centuries, but that Chinamen
ihould dare to try the same thing on
is—well, that’s a white horse of a
fellow color.
What if, not content with seeking
:onverts, these interlopers inculcat-
I among us certain phases of their
oeathenish philosophy, such as
leaching young people consideration
land respect for their elders; and
showing that rushing about in a
¡frenzy does not necessarily indicate
business energy; and that the natur­
al aim of man is not always to
¡worship speed and—up to thirty-
odd thousands a year—to die by it;
and that intolerance as between re­
ligious creeds isn’t invariably proof
of true piety; and that minding
one's own affairs is really quite
an admirable trait?
Why, native Americans wouldn’t
be able to recognize the old home-
place any more!
Such threats against a superior
civilization are not to be borne.

Vanished Americans.
TT’S exciting to prowl among the
1 ruined cities of the first Ameri­
cans, who scattered into the twi­
lights of antiquity when the Chris­
tian era was still young. They were
our oldest families, older than even
old Southern families—and who ever
heard of a new Southern family or
«ven just a middle-aged Southern
family?
But afterwards, it’s confusing to
read the theories of the expert re­
searchers who have passed judg­
ment on those vanished cliff-dwell-
jng peoples, because few such
learned gentlemen agree on any
single point. There is one very emi­
nent authority who invariably in­
sists that all the rest of the emi­
nent authorities are absolutely
wrong about everything. He is the
Mr. Justice McReynolds of the ar­
cheologists.
After reeding some of the conflict­
ing literature on this subject, I’ve
decided that a true scientist is one
who is positive there are no other
true scientists.

Like individuals, the 48 states in
the Union do not always agree on
matters which affect them in com­
mon.
In many respects each state is in­
dependent of every other state. Each
has its own government, constitu­
tion, and laws. Each surrenders to
the federal government, under the
Constitution, only enough of its in­
dependence to assure regulation for
the common good in matters of na­
tional concern.
Frequently one state believes that
a neighboring state has deprived
or is depriving it of certain rights.
It may believe that some of its
territory is wrongfully claimed by
its neighbor. Or it may think that
another state is polluting a river
which runs through, or bounds both
states. Perhaps the waters of an
interstate river are being diverted
by an upper state, so that the lower
state is deprived of some of its ben­
efits. A difference over financial mat­
ters may also demand a decision by
an impartial umpire.
Constitution Provides Umpire.
Under such circumstances, the
state which believes itself to be in­
jured will ask the other to repair the
alleged damage, give up the dis­
puted land, or make payments of
money claimed on loans, etc.
Often the state on which such de­
mands are made disputes the
claims. What are the possible re­
sults?
The disputing states could, in such
a situation, have a difficult time.
When similar disputes arise between
independent nations, the choice lies
between diplomatic conferences and
war. But, here, under the Constitu­
tion, the Supreme court is. prepared
to meet such situations.
What were some of these differ­
ences, amicably settled by submit­
ting them for decision to our Na­
tional Umpire? Here are a few:
In 1832 Rhode Island asked the
Supreme court to determine the cor­
rect boundary line between that
state and Massachusetts. Both
claimed title to the land under their
respective charters from the Brit­
ish crown.
Massachusetts Wins.
After determining that the evidence
showed the territory in dispute had
been possessed and occupied by the
people of Massachusetts for over
two hundred years, the court de­
cided in favor of the Bay state.
•‘It would be difficult,” explained
the opinion, “to disturb a claim thus
sanctioned by time, however un­
founded it might have been in its
origin."
, , „
In another case, Missouri and Ken­
tucky could not agree as to the own­
ership of an island in the Mississippi
—the boundary between the two
states. The main channel of the
river had been fixed as the dividing
From the evidence submitted the
court decided that at that time the
main channel had been on the west
side, and therefore the island was
part of Kentucky.
Numerous wars have been fought
in the course of history because one
country thought it should have part
of another’s territory. Many not dis­
similar disputes between our states,
however, have been settled so quiet­
ly by our National Umpire that few
people were even aware that differ­
ences had arisen.
Court Recalls Old Treaty.
In 1921, for example, the Supreme
court was asked to decide a dispute
between Oklahoma and Texas, in­
volving a strip of valuable oil land
' ‘'¿ “’S e n p S i l e armed
between parties claiming title from
the state of Texas and others claim­
ing title from the state of Oklahoma,
it became necessary for the Supreme
court to assume charge of the ter
ritory through a receiver, until the
di«?Dute was decided.
The case was settled in favor °
Oklahoma, after the court found it
necessary to consider a treaty be
tween the United States and Spain,
s.;cned back in 1819.
On another occasion the Supreme
court ordered Colorado not to divert
more than a small amount of the
waters of a river within its bounda­
ries because such action would de­
prive the people of Wyoming of their
right to have the river, on whose
waters they depended, flow through
^Ir^thw e, and other cases, the Su-
court by its decisions de­
termined the’law for the whole peo­
ple ^n d fulfilled its purpose as
guardian
of their rights.

to hA

from the German dictator’s life is
a word of encouragement for those
whose early lives may seem fail­
ures.
Adolf Hitler was born on the Ba­
varian frontier of Germany in 1889,
the son of a customs official who
had political ambitions for him. The
boy developed a desire to be an
artist. His father opposed him, so
Adolf refused to study in school.
He was the despair of his father
and mother. When he was eight­
een, he went to Vienna and applied
for admission to the Academy of
Art. His art was too poor to qualify
IP
HEN the world takes a holiday
at the beach, tennis court, golf
course, aboard ship or wherever
cation lures the playful, watch
prints. We promise you that you
will see prints this summer such as
you have never seen before, armies
of them, droves of them, proces­
sions of them!
It would seem as if style creators
are just discovering that if there
is one place more than another
where riotously gay prints lend
themselves dramatically to the pic­
ture, it is at the beach and its en­
virons. The vibrant blue and green
hues of the sea, the vast dome of
a glamorous opalescent sky, the
bright glare of the sun, the stretches
of golden sand call to the colors,
and to more color and more in the
fashion parade.
So it is that prints for beach and
for swim wear have become a hob­
by with designers this summer.
Needless to say, for the most part
it’s linens and cottons that “steal
the show” when it comes to rollick­
ing, frolicking beach end sea-going
costumes. The grand thing about
the spectacular printed linens and
cottons that are so thrillingly en­
livening the pageantry of fashion
where sea-breezes blow is that you
can wear them with all confidence,
knowing that they have been scien­
tifically processed so that they won’t
shrink and they won’t lose their high
color no matter how wet the water,
no matter how many duckings they
get, no matter how relentlessly
scorching sun rays attack. This as­
surance of non-shrinkage and of col­
or endurance that goes with mod­
ern wash materials has, as a mat­
ter of fact, proved persuasive in
encouraging the movement that is
now on of featuring tub prints in a
big way for beach fashions and also
for swim suits.
As to whether you don linen or

early grades made it impossible for
him to pass entrance requirements
there.
For three years he slept in a
cheap men’s hotel in Vienna, get­
ting his meals at a monastery and
occasionally begging from passers-
by. In the winter he shoveled snow
to make a living. Whenever he
earned a few kronen, he stopped
work and went to some cheap cafe
to deliver political speeches. He
painted poor water colors which a
friend peddled for him, he painted
picture postcards, and when hungry
enough was a house painter. Dur­
ing the war he was a corporal.
Here was a man in his thirties
who had never shown any real
promise in anything he did. Then,
Adolf Hitler formed an ideal of
government.

Early records of his life have not

Here it is, the latest step toward
chic and toward greater freedom—
the tipless glove, cut to show bright­
ly polished nails. The open-air fe­
ver, starting with toeless shoes and
crownless hats, has gone to the fin­
gers. If your gloves are copper red
as gloves and accessories are apt
to oe these days it’s robin-red nail
polish you’ll be wanting. The suit
is of horizon blue, softest feather­
weight woolen. The wide revers,
the modified umbrella skirt, the
squared shoulders and the boxy
jacket with its jaunty swing make
this smart street-and-travel costume
as modish as it is practical.
Pastel laces for the wedding gown,
as well as the bridal party’s dresses
are a new note this season, and
one that bids fair to gain in popular­
ity through the season. Very pale
pastels are used, so pale that they
are almost white, and yet have a
special shimmer that would not be
attained by plain white. One of the
loveliest of these pastel wedding
gowns that we have seen is of palest
blue linen thread, and the edge of
the train, and the edge of the slit
skirt, are scalloped with the scallop­
ing accented by tiny-pleated net in
the same blue. The neckline, too, is
edged with the fine net pleating.
Net, as well as lace, ranks highly
for bridal gowns this season. Silk
net, particularly, is adapted to mold­
ing the figure, and when cut on a
princess line, accenting the slender
figure, it makes a truly beautiful
bridal gown. And whereas net veils
are prevalent over lace bridal
gowns, a net wedding dress is best
set off by a lovely lace wedding veil.
One veil that we have seen, over
a net gown, was of lace, and very
short. A bertha collar of lace was
attached to the net train, the lace
forming borders on the sides of th ,
train.
