Start at one corner of a regulation checker-bo; rd and follow a line along the diagonals. The problem is to touch every square without retracing any line. It is permissible to touch a square twice, but only by crossing it at right angles to the line which has already crossed it. The course shown in the drawing has pyroceeded conectly with two crossings: but the line can now go i c farther, for it is not permissible to zig-zag up the board along the squares already touched. Can you trace a complete course? Yesterday's answer: • The man who said, in a certain year of the last century: “Multiply my age by Itself, and the total will be the year in which I was born,” was born in 1849. He made the statement in 1892. when he was 43 years old. (43x43 equals 1849). JACKSON ATRALLY High Tribute Paid Coo lid ge at Bloomington Meeting.

POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT TO VOTERS— Suppose that the Democratic party had been in power in this state and nation for the past four years and That the Governor and two other state officials had been convicted in the courts, two of them for embezzlement, and sent to prison, and the other for violating the liquor law, That the county clerk of the biggest county in the state had ' been imprisoned for embezzling $140,000, That expenses had been increased more than 18 million dollars, or over double what they were four years ago, That the chief executive had defrauded over two hundred banks out of a million dollars, That deposits of state money had been awarded to banks that would loan the Governor money, That the Secretary of State had publicly indorsed a swindling concern and then tried to run for Governor, That the Highway Commission had been inI’estigated by the board of accounts and one favored firm had voluntarily refunded $50,000 which the commission had over-paid it, That a candidate for Superintendent of Public instruction had been nominated against whom serious charges had been made by the State Board of Education, That millions of dollars had been spent building a palace for able-bodied criminals, while hundreds of insane men and women languished in jails and poor asylums, That a law had been passed permitting boards and commissions to hire employes and raise salaries at will and that an average of anew employe each day for the last four years had been added to the state payroll, thereby increasing it over a million dollars a year, That the Democratic organization had been delivered over body and soul to a secret organization with secret membership, and a couple of non-residents of the state permitted to dictate the nominees on the state ticket and write the platform, And then suppose that in our national administration a United States senator had been convicted of bribery and forced from the Senate, That three cabinet members had retired in disgrace, one of them openly charged with bribery, And that the President had declined to make a move toward dismissing these cabinet officers until forced by public opinir That this President had sat by and without a word of protest had seen government officials give away Tea-Pot Dome and the California oil reserve, and That this same President later rewarded with promotion the naval officer that recommended the sale of these naval reserves to Sinclair and Doheny. That the head of the soldiers’ rehabilitation had caused $300,000,000 to be stolen, wasted and grafted, as proved by congressional investigation. That the Secretary of the Treasury had been proved to own immense distilleries and liquor interests, That the same cabinet member had been shown to profit many millions of dollars by the increased tariff on aluminum. That a senator who had interests in a sugar refinery be permitted to increase the duty so that it cost the people of the United States $200,000,000 a year in order to enrich himself and associates in the Mormon church. That the President had named as his private secretary a congressman who had been convicted of selling postoffice appointments in direct violation of the law. That the Department of Justice had been found honeycombed with graft and grafters. That the home of a United States senator had been found to be the place where the swag was divided that had been derived from selling liquor permits, and Suppose that all these and dozens of other offenses against common honesty and common decency had been committed by the Democrats instead of by the Republicans, in the state and national government, do you suppose the people would stand for it? Would not an outraged people drive them from public office? Has the public sense of morality been so dulled and become so hardened to crime and immorality in official life, that it no longer takes note of it? If crime and immorality in public office is to be rewarded with longer tenure, then what is to prevent a repetition of the evils, along with the impoverishment of the people and the destruction of popular government?
