SCHOOL FOR PUBLIC SPEAKING
Owing to the doarth of orators,
which you have never noticed, a
school for publlo speaking has been
organized and soon this ploasant vat
ley will have orators to burn. This
la an excellent If somewhat cruel Idea.
It baa never aeemed that this coun
ty was short of orators. In fact, there
has always been a shortage of citizens
who did not have alleged oratorical
talent, and liable at any time to
accidentally make a speech, without
the slightest provocation or the least
premeditation. None of these ever
went to a school for public speaking
and are proud of It. Many never went
to any school, except to make a cam
paign speech. The lunga and larnyx
have long been overworked, and the
Xngllsh language massacred unmercl
fully In these parts. And the end la
not yet.
The first requisite for a good public
speaker, la the firm determination
not to, and lack of ability to make
a speech, and the second requirement
13 to stay away from places where he
Is apt to be tempted to make one.
The school may call the speeches
"declamations", but they are speeches
Just the same. Another good way to
top a speech la for the public to star
away from publlo speaking. No orator
win discuss the Issues of the day,
with himself, or 350 vacant chairs.
Here la a typical speech, prevalent
before the School for Publlo Speakers
came:
Neighbors, I am all tuckered out
from fighting your battles against a
lot of thieves who should be In the
penitentiary. I make the prediction
now, that aome of the thieves will be
In the penitentiary If they dont
mend their ways. And, they will be
the right men. It looks like every
body la here who la coming, so I will
ask the grand old taxpayer, who was
oaught removing gaa from his neigh
bor's tractor, to paw the hat. There
Is a sample of Justice. How many of
ua got here the aame way? Lock the
aoore while the collection Is being
bKru. i m doi a puoue epeaker.
After the orator haa been to the
cnooi, ne win speak as follows:
Brother Americans, I am not a pub
lic speaker. Further comment la un
necessary. I thsnk you. The meeting
Is now adjourned. Good-night.
Just one more word. I am a gradu
ate of the school of publlo speaking.
There I was taught (dam the luck)
to atop talking when I was through
speaking. I used to talk until the
cock crowed, but owing to the won
derful tre'nlng, I am not as windy as
I used to be. I asked for Just one more
word. I have overdrawn my account,
and hope you will forgive the vocal
embeizlement, I hope my teacher u
not present, or he wauld make me
come back and make this speech all
over, because I forgot to take a drink
of water when I started, as he drilled
me.
Under this system, the speakers will
be controlled and all will be well,
unless a member of the audience be
comes restless and says:
Just a minute, guys. What are we
up against anyway, with thl new
tangled notion. Where la the free
speech of our forefathers? Didn't
anybody present come over on the
M;;S!ower? I say. hang the district
attorney, and the two commissioners,
for a starter. We demand that we be
lied to. Tel! us who stole the doom,

situation resembles those little
played over and over'again, in the endless dance of life, which
result in the vulgar social climber finally winning recognition
from the reigning Queen of the 400, because in the end money
talks.
And the Queen of the 400 decides money is more desirable
than to stubbornly stick to her bard and fast social tradition.
So Mrs. Got Rocks is admitted to the inner circle, and in return,
buys the favorite son of the Social Monarch, a fancy job in the
diplomatic service.
"I shall never recognize that shameless unprincipled hussy"
said Uncle Sam, when Mile Soviet first asked for recognition,
"she will have to change her ways before she can get in my
400." So three American presidents turned her down.
But as is usually true of the vulgar barbarian, turndowns
were expected and never injured the feelings of the capable,
hard boiled little climber knocking at the social gates. From
each reverse she came back stronger than ever, and as her busi
ness had prospered, while the business of the reigning Queens
hadn't, she had each time, more to offer.
So persistence won, as persistence usually does. and in the
last analysis money did it, as money usually does.

Stimson issued his well known manifesto.
But Uncle Sam has changed, after long last, he has swallow
ed his pride, renounced his original principles, and in a few
months now, will undoubtedly do what he vowed he would never
do, admit Soviet Russia to the high society of the so-called
Big Business nations.
He needs the money, his people need the money and Rus
sian recognition means or he thinks it means, Russian trade.

The Radicals Revolt Again
'"THE proposed farm strike in the Middle West and the recall
of Governor Meier, can properly be classified under the
same ,heading,a growth of political dissatisfaction with
things as they are, "and a refusal to show that restraint and
patience which the situation domands.
. President Roosevelt in his radio talk last night brought this
out very olearly. He is not a miracle man and never pretended
to be. He is however doing everything he can, with the extra
ordinary powers given him, to return this country to normal
cconomio and industrial well being.
But the forces of dissatisfaction and unrest are unwilling to
wait. They want action, and want it now. So a farm strike is
planned in the corn belt, and a recall of the governor in Oregon.
HPIIESE two movements have another interesting feature in
common. The farmers now protesting against the adminis
tration's slow progress, are the farmers chiefly influential in
securing Roosevelt's overwhelming vote in the Middle West;
and the forces behind Governor Meicr'a recall, are the forces so
eilcctive in electing him.
In noither oase, does the opposition come from political
enemies of the two ohief executives from the groups who or
ganized to defeat them during their respective campaigns. It
comes from their radical supporters who have become tired of
waiting for a miraole to happen, and are ready to throw over
tne very leadership they selected, on the chance that some
Miracle Man will appear.
It is the old search for tho pot of gold at the foot of the
rainbow, which always fails.

and are neither as impatient nor as volatile, as are the radical
minorities, who always make a noise out of all proportion to
thoir numbers.
The rank and file here and elsewhere will gladly give their
chosen leaders more time, be patient and considerate-give
them every chanoe to make good and only when their inability
has been clearly demonstrated, demand ANOTHER "New

pose It has on hand about 1800,000,

Answer Everybody has a more or
less chronic appendix until some sur
geon gets It. If you mean your son
and you have had one or more at
tacks of appendicitis, I should say
removal of the appendix Is the best
course. No such condition as chronic

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
THE NORMAL potato crop In this
country is arouna mree ana on
half bushels per person, and In one
way or another wa consume tt all, for
potatoes art not carried over from
year to year.
This year the crop Is about 16 per
cent BELOW normal, or about three
bushels per person.
That la to say, supply this year la
BELOW NORMAL DEMAND.
-lET. In the face of this situation
A which should ordinarily Insure
active buying at good prices, the mar
ket Is sluggish and prices are far be
low the opening figure.
WHY?
W
ELL, the immediate answer to
that question la that credit la
tight this year and growers have to
finance the harvesting of their crops
by SELLING POTATOES.
The result la that supplies are being
rushed onto the market, creating a
TEMPORARY surplus.
This temporary surplus has broken
the price.
HERE is another explanation, given
to this writer yesterday by an
exceptionally shrewd buyer:
People generally haven't yet REAL
IZED that there Is an Impending po
tato shortage, and hence are not bid
ding up for the existing supply.
As a consequence of this lack of
realization, the supplies being pushed
onto the market In order to get har
vesting money give the appearance of
a SURPLUS.
HE ILLUSTRATED It this way:
"If the normal crop Is repre
sented by 1000 sacks, this year'a crop
would be represented by 850 sacks.
for this year's crop la about 15 per
cent below normal. Here at the be
ginning of the season, the 850-sack
pile doesnt look much smaller than
the 1000-sack pile.
"But by about the MIDDLE of the
sesson,, when 500 sacks have been
used off each pile, the difference win
be plainly visible, and people win
then begin to realize that there Is a
shortage."
f ETS draw a picture of this sltua.
-t tlon, looking something like this:
-I-
In this picture, the top line repre
sents the norjnal crop. The bottom
line represents this year's crop. The
up and down line In the middle repre
sents the point at which half the nor
mal crop la used.
NOW start at the left side and look
dawn both lines. You will note
that the top line doesn't look much
longer than the bottom one.
But when you start In the MIDDLE
of the top line and look at the rest,
you will note that what la left of
the bottom line looks MUCH
SMALLER.
That la to say, when this middle
point la reached people will realise
all of a sudden that the supply of
potatoes this year Is SHORT.
When that happens. In all proba
blllty, they will begin to BID UP for
the remaining supply, and prices will
rise sharply.
W
HEN will that happen?
here quoted, thinks It will happen
somewhere around the first of Janu
ary. When It does happen, as already
stated, the price will rise.
His advice to growers Is NOT TO
SELL any more potatoes at existing
prices than la absolutely necessary to
raise what money has to be raised.
k T THIS POINT, we come to an
Mother Interesting fact:
This writer, within the past two or
three weeks, has talked to many po
tato buyers, whose business it Is to
foltow supply and demand conditions
closely. These buyers, without ex
ception, believe that prices will be
higher later on than they are now.
and practically without exception
they advise growers NOT "WO SELL at
existing prices If they ean hold on.
At first thought It appears that
they are talking against their own
Interest.
AS A MATTER of fact, they are
NOT. because of peculiar market
ing conditions that exist In this par
ticular year. These conditions will
be dealt with In another article in
this column tomorrow.

Those black, short-haired wolf-size
dogs with small, sharp-pointed ears,
are dobermann-plncers. Popular In
Germany, the first was brought to
America by Cole Porter, song writer
and playwright. Park avenue Is now
giving them a tumble. Some, touch
ed with a dark tan, are said to bethe
most pronounced one-man dogs. Hit

Fred O. Kelly used to bMst of his
one-man dog. an Airedale. The ani
mal lived with the writer on his farm
near Peninsula, O., and would go
nowhere without his master. Onoe
he brought him to New York. The
big city confused him or something,
for he would follow anybody that
called, except Kelly, at whom he
snapped constantly.
I went to a studio recently with a
broadcaster much in love with love.
His lady fair was listening and he
explained how certain words and cer
tain Inflections would have a mean
ing all their own for her. It re
minded of Interpolations I used to
write In small-town Items aa tender
messages for the only girl. I spent
hours fashioning them and they sound
pretty goah -awful, especially when my
wife reads them to company. But
then I regarded It as the flowering of
genius.
Economy has given window dress-
lng a Jewel box sparkle along the de
luxe shopping centers. Large display
windows have a plushed box back
ground with a small opening for dls
play of a single article. An evening
slipper, a purse, etc. The solitary
effort produces a grandiose effect at
one twentieth the ordinary cost.
Windows that, so far as I can re
call, never change, are Tiffany's. Each
for years displayed only a winged Mer
cury In bronze. I always look the
other way In passing'. Just to be
snooty,' too.
A little-patron 1 red Jeweler in our
town unconsciously carried out the
Tiffany Idea. All my remembering
years his single window held an eight
day clock with a pendulum on t
thread. This pendulum on top of
the clock swung from one upright
bar to the other, winding neatly
around. I used to be often late from
Mrs. Hanson's with the evening milk,
watching. To this day, I'd like to
own that clock.
I never see the old burleequer. Hap
Ward, without a smile over, to me,
his grandest story. Old but ever
amusing. It concerns the colored fel
low trapped one midnight in a chick
en coop. The owner with his shot
gun, after several futile calls, declar
ed that if whoever It waa didn't come
out he'd shoot. A thin, twittering
whine finally replied: "Aaln't no one
in here 'cept us little chickens!"
And H. T. Webster thinks the most
