FOR ‘DAD- yIIEN a' boy loses his father by death, ihe AND-BOY’ \\ / world feels that he has lost his surest guide EVENING V V t 0 manhood, and pity is always expressed that his upbringing is left entirely in the hands of his mother. Such a loss is sad for any boy, but how much sadder the fate of those who lose their fathers by life? Who have them, and yet have them not; who are separated from them by the demands of business, pleasure or indifference; who have their fathers in flesh, but not in spirit ? It is never possible for a mother to exercise the same influence over a growing boy that a father can. In the first place she is held away from him by the gigantic wall of sex; she can never hope to understand the needs of his developing nature as a man could. Her maternal instinct yearns over her manchild and her heart is as wax toward him. Every growing boy needs a man's guiding hand, and it is appalling how many fathers do not seem to realize this fact. If fathers could be made to realize that the giving of even one evening every week to their bo3's might mean the making of future great men, surely there is not one who would begrudge this time, and count it well spent. Our boys, after all, stay with us as boys for such a pitifully short time. PORCH y yERE’S a warm editorial for family consumpSWING VS. I—l tion given by Mrs. Lindley Brown, head of FLIVVER JL JL the women's police department, to the Birmingham ;Ala.) Post: “The automobile, one of the greatest and most useful of our modern inventions, yet highly destructive to our youth, has robbed the home of its former eharm and interest for the child, and in many instances for the parents as well. “The modern daughter and son are allowed to choose their own companions now. And morals in this age are much more loose than when mother and father were children. Therefore, children are open to fall in with most any one. “The porch swing and the front parlor have been the scene of many beautiful romances, just as the automobile in may cases has been the background for the ruin of many girls and boys.' “What the home needs is more generalship, drilling and training of the young recruits by parents. “After all. the modern boys and girls are really a reflection of the home. For is this not an age of parental irresponsibility? Has not the parents’ influence, in many cases, caused their children to drift from the home into the modern maelstrom of pleasure? “I repeat,. Give them the porch swing and the front parlor and store the flivver and we’ll have less to worry about the ‘terrible younger generation.' as it is called.”

Two Czech George Washingtons Are Father of New War-Made Republic

Masaryk is now 73 years old Ilis father was a Slovak coachman, his mother a poor Moravian. A born student, he read everything he could get his hands on and, by the time he was 13 years old was ready for the normal school. But dhe normal school took pupils only 16 years old or older and Thomas' parents apprenticed the boy to a locksmith in Vienna in whose family his mother had once been employed. Standing at a machine all day did not suit the boy so he returned home. He was now sent to learn the blacksmith trade. But one of his oid teachers. recognizing his talents, got him a. job helping teach in tin- school at Ilustopec. There he learned French. Later he learned Polish and Russian. Studying In Leipzig he met Miss Charlie Garigue and in 1878 went to America to make her his wife. When he came back he became a professor in the University of Prague. In 1891 Masaryk began to take an interest in Czech politics. He was elected to the Austrian Relchsrnt and fought, the Hapsburg policy in the Balkans. When the war broke out he es caped to England and was appointed a professor in King's College. He wrote against Germany and was condemned to death by the Austrian government Meanwhile Czechoslovak troops, forced into the Austro-Hungarian army against their will, surrendered en masse. Masaryk went to Russia and foioned the famous “legionnaires” of his escaped countrymen and these took part with distinction In Russia, Italy and France until the end of the war. He was elected first president of Czechoslovakia in 1918. He is well known in America, where he spent some time after his escape from Russia, via Siberia, after the revolution. Dr. Benes, who is only 39 years old, is the son of peasants and learned to plow when he was 7 years old. His career closely resembles that of the president in that he received an un-

Will Rebuild City In addition to these privileges, however, the Chester interests have oh tained the right of rebuilding the city of Angora on American lines, with the construction of water pipes, an electric lighting system, street cars and modem streets. They have also obtained an order for the supply of large shipments of American agrieul turnl machinery to Turkey, along with the exploitation of water power in Asia Minor, a.nd with the construction of a modem harbor by the Mediterranean and another by the Black Sea.

SCHEDULE Conference Called to Further Constitutional Amendments on Wage Laws, By United News Y|T ARLINGTON. April 30.—Progregsive leaders, cooperating with a number of Governors of States, are planning a conference of Governors for the early summer to get widespread backing in a program for the next Congress which probably will include several amendments to the Constitution. They plan to map out a general legislative schedule xvith the aid of the Governors, which can then be carried back to the people for a crystallization of sentiment before Congress reconvenes in December. Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, leader of the progressives in Congress, has long advocated such a conference. The initiative, however, was taken by Governor Hart of Washington, who has telegraphed to five other Governors. i He proposes in his message that a conference be called to draft an amendment to the Constitution providing for minimum wage laws for women and child labor laws. The minimum wage law principle was annulled by the Supreme Court recently when it declared the District of Columbia law unconstitutional. Other constitutional changes advocated by progressives which probably will have a place in the discussion include: Ending of “lame duck" Congresses. Abolishing the electoral college. Curbing the power of the Supreme Court. Senator La Follette will also likely urge attention in the conference t, - still other matters, among them State laws for presidential primaries and joint State action in urging State commerce commission have control over intrastate rates. As leader of the progressives, La Follette's word will have considerable weight. Senator La Follette already hase a measure prepared which provides for congressional veto on Supreme Court decisions Involving uneonstitutionality. Senator Borah Introduced a bill last session requiring that seven out of nine votes be necessary to declare an act of Congress unconstitutional. The Governors to whom Hart sent telegrams were: A1 Smith of New York, John J. Blaine, Wisconsin: F. IV. Richardson, California; J. M. Davis, Kansas, and \V. M Pierce. Oregon. Progressives are planning to extend the invitation to other States not vitally affected by the minimum wage decision. 34 DOUGHNUTS EATEN SAN MATEO, Cal., April 30. —Other cities may claim the long distance dancing champion, but San Mateo presents Jim McGrath, king of doughnut eaters.

DEFINITION The practice of Chiropractic consists of the adjustniont, with the hands, of the movable segments of the spinal column to normal position for the purpose of removing the cause of the disease.

This great human girder, the backbone, is your health barometer, and the Chiropractor, with a keen sense ol touch, technically termed palpation, palpates by band these small bones of the spine to determine where the trouble of your ailment or disease exists. The next step is to correct this condition, which is accomplished by a ski lit ill adjustment of the certain vertebra or vertebrae to release the impinged nerve. By this scientific method of Chiropractic spinal adjustments the Chiropractor removes the cause of your disease. Without losing time he gets right at the root of your trouble and corrects it. Investigation may he highly heuefieial in proving to you that Chiropractic corrects the cause of disease more promptly, radically and permanently than any other method kneavn.

Wood Gains Respect in Capital Despite Fight on Harry S. New

By 7 imes special WASHINGTON. „ April 30. Representative Will Wood is going to take the trip with Secretary of War Weeks to Alaska. Wood has gained some respect for himself here despite his recent fights on Harry Now and Harding’s court policy. Tt Is because Wood began his fight and made it in the open and never hesitated to express his opinion and to take the blows that followed. Even New applauded him because of that, according to the reports. New told Wood as much. Another thing for which Wood is to he commended, he does not curry favor with the Washingtonians. Propaganda is constant in Washington about the heavy tax burden. The Government, you know, pays 49 per cent of the expense here and only 60 per cent is collected from W ashingtonians.

Getting at the root ot' our business and family troubles is one of Ihe ironies of life. Bill Ihe most difficult source to find js getting at ihe root of our daily ills. To find out the real cause of disease. Men. women and children have suffered for ages with every nameable disease known to science, but the real solid ion to our health problem does not lie in the name of our disease or treating it. but in removing the real cause of the trouble. Chiropractic has demonstrated this undeniable fact, that when the bones of ihe spine (vertebrae) are in their normal alignment the result is a harmonious nerve function in every part of the body.

That means that the fine parks and beautiful streets are kept up in part by taxes collected from every' one in the land. The Washington tax burden is about one-third of that in Indianapolis, for instance. It becomes popula?- then for members of Congress to forget this, unpopular if they mention it. The rich i ek Washington as a home place because of the light tax burden. A member of Congress who establishes a home here gets the benefit of *his low tax rate also. Most of them forget the benefits of the system. Will Wood does not. When he hears the propaganda and has any questions asked. h“ speaks frankly. There is some ground for the contention the Government should pay some of the burden because Government buildings are not taxed and their portion of the taxable property is great.
