Now It Is said that the late Pretn-| dent Harding favored the League of Nations and wanted America to enter it. Professor Fisher of Yale is authority for the statement and I ’ further says that the late President ■ merely opposed America's entrance for political purposes. Is Calvin Coolidge going to carry out the Harding program? The auto races given Labor Day by Messrs. Beery and Meibers were enjoyed by several thousand people, including those on the outside of the fence. Had It not rained during the morning, it is safe to predict that ten or fifteen thousand people would have witnessed the event. The races were good, no serious accidents occurred and the fans are looking forward to Columbus Day, October 12th, when another racing event will be staged at Bellmont Park. These Klan speakers are destructive. In voicing their bigotry and hatred for others they prove that they do not believe in the fundamental principles embodied in the constitution. This- is America and the • right to worship the Almighty as one i believes is granted to everyone, i Nothing good can come from the i speeches made by these men nor will I they bring about the petty and selI fish things they hope to accomplish. Why try to destroy? Conditions in Tokio, Yokohama . and other cities in Japan as a result |of the earthquake are indescribable. , The casualties are estimated from < IGO,OOO to 200,000, food riots have broken out and fire and water is do- ' ing untold damage and killing tens of <

7 ! thousands of people. American war ’ ships have gone to the scene ahd ' hope to assist in the resculhg of the suffering. From the number of ' quakes that have visited Japan in the last century one would believe that the whole country would be swallowed tip one of these days. "Os every ten couples that are married only one couple will have enough money saved to furnish a home. Another of the ten couplei will rent furnished quarters or board. Eight of every ten couples beginning married life will furnish their homes wholly or partly on credif, to a large extent on the partial payment plan.” The foregoing is the gist of a report made by a home economics expert, who was sent out by one of the biggest corporations that supply equipment for homes, to investigate the financial foundation of matrimony. The report adds that 40 percent of the yearly salary of a young married man is necessary to furnish a home comfortably in the average American city. For a man earning $l5O a month this would mean 3720. The figures are subject to change and w’ill vary according to one’s desires. Failure of young men to maintain savings accounts or make other investments before marriage necessitates the adding of debt to romance, the report recites, and is undoubtedly one of the factors in the divorce evil. Two peak loads come to the average marriage, the report concludes; one is furnishing a home and the other, almost twenty years later, in educating children and giving them a start in life. rrA . i : i .
