Ye Poet's Cornei
Rnhrt Ford
Roberts had a little Ford, Its body
. made of tin, '
And everwhere that Roberta went, the
Ford carried him..
A yard of tin. a foot of steel, a funny
looking steering wheel.
And the only thing that made It go
was Its ready will.
Two pals they were together aa they
roamed the countryside,
Belling land and houses, an excuse
to take a ride.
Well, the years rolled Into many, but
the little Ford was true;
A drink of gas waa all It aaked be
sides a tire or two;
So all went well till one cold nlgbt,
when the moon waa hanging low.
That this little Ford of early make
met Its terrible foe.
Well, the llghta blinked out . and
Roberts, too,
And the little Ford's days on earth
are through.
But fat was kind and saved Roberts'
skin,
Although thst waan't what bothered
him.
So the chapter la ended and tell you
1 must,
That the little tin Ford la covered
with dust.
And alone In the rain It stands,
Awaiting the touch of Its master's
hand,
To guide It from the drifting aand.

NEW YORK. Dec. 13. (AP) SIT
Norman Angell, recipient of the No
bel peace prize, today asserted a
breakdown In League of Nations
peace machinery In the Italy-Ethiopian
war would "be a triumph for
European Imperialisms." .
In New York on a lecture tour.
the lecturer and author In an Inter
view emphasized what he termed
the "point that has been lost sight
of In all the talk of the past few
weeks that the so-called 'leftists'
have been the real support of the
League peace movement, fortified
by sanctions."
Success of the current France-
British peace plan, he added, would
be tantamount to success for Im
perialism, since It apparently calls
for dismemberment of Ethiopia.

Will Rogers' beloved wife Betty, al
ways gave him wise counsel, accord
ing to W. C. Fields, stage and screen
comedian and years-long friend of
RogerB.
She never advised blnv more wisely
than when she told him that his
ability to talk on topics of the day
should be utilized in his stage rou
tine.
Fields tells the story:
"Rogers was playing on the Am
sterdam Roof with considerable suc
cess. It was practically the same aud
ience night after night. Rogers did

a set routine but he discovered that
the people wouldn't laugh at the
same gags every night and what waa
known as a 'wow the first few nights
became barely a titter after the sec
ond or third week.
"He talked the situation over with
the most wonderful woman X have
ever known in my life hla dear wife
Betty. He must get new gags and
where waa he to get them from?
Betty's sage counsel waa to read the
newspapers and talk of the topics of
the day. That gave Rogers the Im
petus to his great fame and success."

PARIS. (UP) Something unique
In scientific museums, which may go
on exhibit at the Paris exposition of
1837, has been turned up at the cha
teau of La Champfortlere, in the de
partment of the Sarthe.
It Is the complete collection of in
struments used by Lavoisier, father
of modern antiphlogistic chemistry.
which many persons thought had
been destroyed in the French revolu
tion In which Lavoisier was guillo
tined because, In hla zeal to earn
money enough to enable him to con
duct his experiments, he had accept
ed the unpopular job of tax collector.
A few students knew that Lavoi
sier's Instruments had not been de
stroyed in the revolution. They knew
that when Dumas published the com
plet edition of Lavoisier's works In
1864 he was able to examine the
great chemist's Instruments. They
knew that the apparatus, for making
water synthetically by mixing hydro
gen and oxygen and the calorimeter
in the conservatory of arts and trades
came from that collection, but no
one knew where it was.
Maurice d'Ocagne, geometrist and
member of the Academy of Sciences,

LONDON. (UP) First bank safe
ever made with a guarantee against
"civil insurrection" has been con

In other words, It Is said a coun

of any faction, Left or Right, which
happens to seize the country.
The new safe Is a nine-days' won

Most of the safe has been dispatch
ed to Its destination, but the door Is
being exhibited for nine days In the
firm's window, where it attracta an
awestruck crowd of observers block
ing up the sidewalk and part of the
narrow city street.
This door is 8 feet In diameter and
34 Inches thick, and fits into ite
plaee, it la stated, to one-thousandth
of an inch, which shuta out fire or

made on It.
Second, while the door can be
opened by the proper officials in the
usual elaborate way, In the event of

made quickly unopenable by these

opened with the assistance of a sort
