Ituf I any man is eligible to trial by jury and thai, by our constitution, the document on which our civilization Ih based. We shout about our lack of racial prejudice. We point to the "race, color" clause of our consti tution, ami yet a white man who had committed t ho crime of which the iieKro was accused would have been tried before twelve men. We can pride ourselves on our institutions, we can briiK about our i lid usl rial progress, and we can shout about our social reforms, but we shall never have achieved civilization until we reject the barbarism and savagery of the "lynch law" and forpet racial dif ferences. pressing local people with the ex tent of the tragedy which has .'talked into (he homes of the Mis sissippi valley, was emphasized hy Mr. Thompson, who pointed out that alt hough crops have .some times been poor in the Kogue Iliv ver valley and prices low, a com plete crop failure such as has vis ited the 1!

I do not believe any parent could be "impudent' to a teacher ur a principal who attempts such as sault upon a pupil's natural com fort, and health. It is a scandal to ' pedagogy that we still have, In some . h u c k w a r d communities, teachers and school principals who would, If they could, pen alize pupils by keeping them af ter school at night for such of fenses against tho dignity of the I teacher. When the University of Chicago announced the five year plan whereby a capable student nmy complete a course In a year or less instead of hanging around I for four years to gain tho covet ed degree, many antediluvian edu cators were shocked. Will Kogers pointed out that now the smart youngsters can go thru college just ns fast as they like, where as always before they've had to Htiek around four years to keep company with the dumb ones. In well conducted primary or elementary schools no pupil Is re (iiircd to serve notice or to seek anybody's permission when he ' finds it necessary lo Icavo the room. What is more to the point, in such schools children do NOT take advantage of the natural lib erty they have in that respect. Antediluvian is really a mild epithet for me to apply to teach ers, principals or hoards of edu cation that tolerate or practice this particular abuse. If I were confronted with an instance in person I'd use a more appropriate term for it. Now and then some judge up holds the practice of corporal punishment by school teachers or principals. All right, but should the law not give the parent a break, too. bv movidhitt that the ' teacher or principal notify the parent nnd Invite the parent to a. be present while the assault 1b I being committed ? The presence of a parent In I person has an excellent moral ef feet upon teachers, principals or school hoards. If your kid is required to "stay after school" it is u fine plan to he on hand yourself to stay witli the kid and see how chastening the foul air of the school room is on your spirit of respect for bu thority nnd politeness nnd all that.

I've been taking your lodin ra tion for n month, and I want to tell you I'm feeling like n million dollars. How long should I wait before I start the second month? (Mrs. W. C. C.) Answer. Well, you might have another go at it when you're feel ing seven hundred and fifty dol lars. Ordinarily ono should have nn f od in month in each of the four seaso n s su i t y o u rsel f about tho months.

When 1 was a child my hands, wrists and even between the fing-' ers wore oovered with warts. My father was a railroad man, and an old engineer told him to bring mo to htm and ho would remove the warts. One day father did tako me unexpectedly as the engi neer was getting out of his cab. He just mumbled pome words and stroked my hands once or twice with his fingers, and the warts disappeared. (.Mrs. O. II. Jl.) Answer. -Yeah ? Heats nil how much power some engineers have. Birthmark, Is it dangerous to have a red birthmark removed from the face? ( B. J. K.) Answer. Not If : you- have' a real doctor do It.

John and IVgg'y Joined tho Little lllack Clock 'nnd r qulekly -he led them from the magic path to a qua in t old -fashioned house before which he asked them to stop. "Ive turned the time back to January 1 7 in t he year lidii," t h e clock com menced. "A b a b y has just been born in that house and we are in Doston." John nnd Peg gy tried to think what important person had been horn on thfit date. The Clock was very- thoughtful about all such things. " rie always told them firM. nnd;-now he' was answering the question - before he had asked it. "JJcnjamin Franklin has just come into the world, and I thought it would bo nice to turn the time back this evening to his birthday." "Are we going inside?" asked Peggy, who liked little babies. Hut tho Clock shook his' head. "No, I want to turn the time ahead now to a June day in 1 T r2. Suddenly there was a heavy thunder and lightning torni. . The peaU of thunder were terrific, the lightning flushed this way and that. John loved storms, but Peg gy whs a little bit frightened. Now they saw a man and his son right out in tho storm flying a kite with a key attached to the end of the kite cord, drawing the electricity from the heavy clouds. "It wouldn't he p.
