The tears of thousands watered the path to that grave. Millions of Americans, and thousands in foreign lands are pausing reverently, touch ed by unwonted emotion, as they learn the news of his passing and putting away. With the passing years he will liveniore than ever in. the hearts of his people as one of the really great Americans, and in the heart of the world as a servant of all mankind. His name was Luther Burbank. . f , ..t y . Infidel, some called him, identifying him with Ingersoll, whosefaious.k apostrophe to life, and death was read at the funeral by the request of the man now dead. If by the word one means to denote a person who places no faith , in conventionalized' religion, it is no shame to call him infidel, for many a great and good man, at heart a true Christian, has denied the authority of church, and creed. Were the so-called .Christian fooxld at heart as truly Christian as Robert Ingersoll and Lu ther Burbank, the' millenmni would be close at hand. Said Judge Ben Lindsey, life-long friend of Burbank: "If Burbank was an infi del the ynknown will say to us "get down on your knees and pray for me to send you more infidels.' ' f . li.The question ' will rise "what memorial shall we raise to Luther Burbank?" That question has been happily answered by him self, if what are said to be his dying words: "Plant a tree don't build a memorial for me. My strength wjll grow as the tree grows," he said. Have we not here at once a fitting means of memorial and a solution for the ever growing need for reforestation. Let Arbor day be made Burbank day, and let every citi zen plant and care for a tree. Thus will not only the memory of a great and good man be honored, but it will be as he would have it, and we should have it, that the crowning nat ural glory of our country; be restored. , .. Thus Luther Burbank, not infidel; but; God's gardener', will sleep in peace. r Sanity in Prohibition ,r Proposed Panaceas of Doubtful Value The eighteenth amendment to the Ameri can constitution, forbidding the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes in United States terri tory, went into effect January 1 6; 1 920. The national prohibition act, widely known as the Volstead act, was passed by congress in Oc tober, 1919, and vetoed by President Wilson. Congress immediately overrode the veto of the president, and put the Volstead act into effect. Hailed at first as a great blessing to the country, national prohibition has roused more and more discussion. The repeal of the eighteenth amendment seems utterly improb- able, when one considers that but thirteen dry ; states can block any move to change the con stitution. That the amendment may be nul lified by failure of enforcement, or that the Volstead act may give way to some other act ' 'dr-tnforcement, or be substantially modified, .are all possibilities. What is the latest argu ment? " For answer comes Lincoln C. Andrews, in charge for the past year of federal enforce ment activities for the federal treasury. Tes tifying Wednesday before the senate judiciary sub-committee, he advocated permitting the manufacture and sale of all liquor not intoxi cating in fact, striking out the one-half of one per cent alcoholic maximum prescribed in the Volstead act. He does not favor wines, stat ing that they could not be made palatable and non-intoxicating at ,the same time. , . Whether the adoption of the Andrews pro posal would help the matter of enforcing the amendment as he believes, is doubtful. On tario followed a period of complete prohibit ion by Jicensing beer of 4.75 per'tehtfa&obolic content. The beer didn't have enough kick in it to satisfy the wets, and it was sufficiently inconsistent with the principle of prohibition to dissatisfy the drys. So all were dissatisfied. An appeal to the conscience of the liquor huyer and stricter enforcement have yet to be tried before such proposal! as that af Andrews deserve full consideration, even granting, for ' the sake of argument its constitutionality.

"Is there any reason why you could not pass Impartially on the evidence for and against the pris oner?" asked the judge of a pro spective Juror.

It, also comes in the high-necked and long-sleoved model with white collars and cuffs In one of the dainty pastel colors, pumpkin yel low being a favorite. Among the aprons made of heavier materials is that of unbleached muslin trim med with gaily patterned calico, the aprons are also tilmmed with linen' appllqued flower motifs, somo cut from plain linen, others from large flowered cretonnes. New hoavy aprons are made of Russian linen trimmed with peas ant embroidery. These aprons are frequently seen worn over a Russian blouse, trimmed with em broldory and a plain tolue, yellow or white linen skirt. Sweet alyssum Is unsurpassed as a border plant.
