: The Death of the Children ; Capt. H. H. Railey, an American who is traveling in the war-devastated districts of Europe, :writes: V t "During the last weeks of the bolshe- : vik retreat from Radzymin, I was lying, : one afternoon, on the left bank of the Nieman, cold, lousy, hungry. Icy winds were sweeping across , the flat, Polish plains. The sky was gray and frowning. I was : thinking what a rotten, senseless thing ; war is, with its blood, its mud, and its stench. Suddenly I heard a feeble cry be- ; hind me. It was the inarticulate pleading : of a child. She stumbled toward me, empty pail outstretched. Hunger 1 That tragic little face, tear-stained, ghastly white,, absolutely unnerved me.. I finally I located a loaf of bread, or what was called . bread, at least. I had weathered many soul-sickening moments in Poland, but I was not strong enough to watch that baby eat. Look at the thin little dress in the photographs I enclose. And I, with boots and gloves and a greatcoat, was shivering. Its mother shook her head when I ' found her and offered money. There were no stores, and no railroad lines with

in thirty-five kilometers of-that spot. ': "In Poland, this is but one case in : thousands. From the Niemen to the Lida line there is nothing but desolation utter, complete. When my division passed over the bridge, we found cholera and typhus all around us."' Here is a picture of suffering, poignant and touching. One that should be'engraved deeply in our minds, impelling us' to answer quickly Herbert Hoover's appeal for food for the 3,500,000 .-starving' children of Europe. ; No solicitation will be done in this campaign. No committees will go from house to house and "store to store, begging and imploring you to lend your support for the mighty battle that is being waged against the forces of starvation and pestilence. Your conscience is your own guide. If you can live contentedly and happily, enjoying your -meals, without hearing the plaintive calls of the rdying children of Europe, no one will censure "you. That's your privilege. : ' But a heart must be hard as granite if it will -"not respond to the hungry cry of helpless children, begging for only enough food to sustain "the feeble flame of life.

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON CITY AND COUNTRY :; It seems a ghastly pity that all the girls and boys are thronging to the city, grown tired of village joys. The city bids them enter, gives them the cordial hand; and down in old Hay Center the empty buildings stand. "Aw, cheo," the kids are' saying,' "the old town is a frost; we'll go where bands are playing, regardless of the cost." The country town is shrinking, it's known a dismal slump, with only graybeards drinking around the village pump. The sad-eyed merchant princes gaze down the dusty 6treet. and, brushing ehelf worn quinces, invoke the name of Pete. The young folks all are leaving, they go on every train, to search for joys deveiving, and pleasures all in vain. Adventure is the mentor that counsels them to go; and down in old Hay Center the lif 'is pretty slow. Hay Center's ways are ttiuiet, she's calm, without, within; she ihas no midnight riot, or garish brands tof sin. Her people all are sleeping 'when village clocks strike ten, and no cheap sports are keeping high wassaU tin a den. They go to church on Suniday to hear tho pastor shout and all rthe dames on Mondays still hang the 'washing out. Hay Center has no pink :uns to chronicle life's game; but from .such towns our Lincolns and other great men came. It's sad to see her dying, abandoned, dusty, gray; but all the kids are sighing to tread the Great White Way. j County Churches : MIddleboro M. E. I. P. TJlmer. pastor.

THE

time work in the

is heartening and encouraging. Many a depression has visited the United States without being noticeably felt in this community, owing primarily to the sound business judgment of the owners of factories, who, warned in good season, had prepared to weather the storm. Their employes were1 beneficiaries of this good judgment. In the present season of deflation, no manufacturers of this city were found financially in such bad shape that receivers had to take over their property or creditors step in and close their plants. All of which gives the employes confidence in the ability of the owners of factories to manage them for the good of all who are concerned. Manufacturers do not care to close their plants or to work wjth greatly reduced forces. Whenever they are unable to keep their entire plants going, they lose money, for their fixed charges and overhead expenses continue in the same proportion as if the whole factory were in operation. It is to their interest, therefore, to keep all their men employed. The employes may rest assured that no factory owner will wait one day longer than necessary before he resumes operation of his whole plant. The period of depression seems to have reached its crest, and a gradual resumption of better conditions probably will soon set in.

Professor Holden and the Corn Show Professor Holden, who will be the principal attraction at an institute and corn show, is not a stranger to the farmers and urban dwellers of Wayne and adjacent counties. For many years his articles on farm problems and agricultural development have appeared in the Palladium. They were accepted as authoritative contributions on farm topics. Professor Holden's visit to Richmond will enable many to meet personally the man whose articles they have enjoyed in the past. Every American farmer today is bent on making every foot of ground yield a maximum output. In this section of Indiana and across the line in Ohio, he is particularly interested in the production of corn, partly because this is one of the big staple crops of this region and also because this is a great hog breeding territory. The latest methods and ideas of producing corn will be presented in the institute. Farmers will have an opportunity of exchanging ideas and of learning how others succeeded or failed. Professor Holden, one of America's foremost authorities on agricultural questions, will be present to answer their inquiries and to explain

why they may

some new but not thoroughly tested method. ; The show will be of interest to the residents of Richmond, too. Every business man knows that the agricultural industry is the backbone of our national prosperity. This also applies in a local sense. If the farmer is able to produce more, it follows that his spending power will be greater, and that the whole community will benefit as a result.

Dinner Stories A boy dashed into a broker's office with news bulletins.- As he turned to leave, a member of the firm called out: "Here, you seem to have some pep. Get me a box of cigars in the lobby and keep the change." The boy hesitated, although a $5 bank note was thrust into his hands Finally he stammered: "I would like to get your cigars, but we are short of boys, and I have a big route to cover. I'll come back when I deUver these bulletins." With that he left the office. "Are you going to wait until he returns?" asked a customer. t'You bet I am," replied the broker. "In these days, it is a pleasure to meet a boy who works for his boss first Furthermore, I am going to put him on the payroll." The railroad off ical invited the stern citizen to communicate his troubles. "I want you to give orders," demanded the visitor, "that the engineer of the express which passes through Elm Grove at 11:55 be restrained from blowing his whistle on Sunday morning." "Impossible!" expldoed the official. "What prompts you to make such a ridiculous reguest?" "Well, you see," explained the citi-

Memories of Old Days In This. Paper Ten Years Ago Today An increase in the number of property sales and the total amount involved was shown to have been greatly in excess to the real estate transaction in previous years, in the annual report of county recorder Will Robbins, covering the period from Jan. 1, 1910 to Dec. 31. 1910. The transfer of the old C. C. and L. railroad, to the C. and O. of Indiana was largely responsible for the year's showing. One of the most successful years in the history of the Home of the Friendless, was passed the preceding year according to the reports from the board of trustees and board of women managers.

The daisy and the diamond. Readers may obtata answer questions by writ Is s; the Palladium apd Aaswers depart meat. All questions ahoald e written plainly and briefly. Anawera will be given briefly. Who's Who in the Day's News FRANK B. WILLIS. Frank Bartlette Willis, Republican senator-elect from Ohio, probably will be appointed to succeed Senator Harding immediately after the latter's resignation. Before he had ever held public office, Willis was looked upon as a coming young man in the ranks of Ohio Republicanism. Willis was born in Lewis Center. Delaware, December 28, 1871. After attending district and high schools at Galena, he entered Ohio Northern university at Ada in FRANK WILLIS 1890, graduating in 1893 and becoming immediately thereafter an instructor in political economy, civil government, United States history and geometry. His political successes have been due to no one cause more than to his connection with the Ada institution for a legion of former Ada students organized to help him win his first gubernatorial fight and has stood by him ever since. The interest of Willis in politics began in the early '90s. He served in the house of representatives of the Ohio general assembly from 1900 through 1903. In 1908 he went to congress from the Eighth Ohio district, serving in the lower house of the national body for three terms. In 1914, he left congress to become the nominee of the Republicans for governor, and was elected. Renominated in 1916, he was defeated by the man he had beaten in 1914, Gov. James M. Cox. Willis is tall and of heavy build, a powerful speaker, with a voice that is strong and carrying. He was a delegate to .the Republican national convention in 1916, and made the speech that placed in nomination Theodore E. Burton of Ohio. He is an ardent advocate of the "old fashioned v William McKinley protective tariff," ana or prohibition. The candidate is married and has one daughter. Miss Helen Willis. His home is at Delaware Good E iooa livening By Roy K. Moulton CONFESSIONS OF A CYNIC I don't understand Einstein's theory of relativity and I don't cara-dam. . I like Bernard Shaw's writing much better than his whiskers. I believe poets are born and not made, but I often wonder why. I believe a street car conductor has it on a column conductor because a street car conductor can leave his car at night and go home and forget it I notice that most of the friends from the old home town call up about lunch time. . I am convinced that a diploma from a school of journalism makes a newspaper man, when it is augmented by 15 years of practical experience. I meet very few interesting people, because very few coincide with my ideas on various subjects. I love work, but not in a miserly way. I never try to take it away from other people. Oom tells us there is a woman In New York who takes her pet Pom to her private box at the opera and the attendants are authority for the statement that she carries along a special pair of opera glasses for the dog's use. Oh, prunes! "BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING" Sir Rabindranath Tagore, who is In our midst, said to reporters: "Eternity is the everlasting present. If you make the present moment eternal you gain immortality." What does a reporter want of immortality? The gentleman who sent us a camisole for Christmas may call and get the same. He asked us by phone what we wanted and we said a casserole. You can't keep potatoes au gratin, lobster Newburg or pork and beans in a camisole. Our opinion of 1921 will be reserved until Dec. 31. What is needed Is a rubber apartment house that will give when overcrowded. YOU WANT SOME EXTRA MONEY?

TODAY'S' TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can", "Take It", "Up". LEARN TO WRITE The things that we make ourselves do and see are the most lasting and impressive to us. In writing, for instance If you are impressed with a beautiful thought in your reading, and you write it down, you are much more apT to remember it and it will influence you more strongly. To even a greater degree will you be able to develop yourself by learning to express your thoughts in writing yourself. For this reason the keeping of a diary is a good thing. In the proportion that you are able to express yourself are you increasing your sphere of interest and enthusiasm. After you have been impressed with a beautiful scene, write down your thoughts about it. In like manner, when you are finished with a book, express in your own language the things about it that made it of interest to you. And when you see a thrilling happening, try to visualize the dominating points about it in your mind and then make a record of them on paper. Learn to write. Anyone who is able to talk, may learn as well to write. Literature is expression, whether good or bad. This history of literature is the story of how people thought You are a part of tho literature of the world to the degree in which you are able to express yourself. The better you wTite, the better will you talk. But write simply. Use words that the largest number can understand. The two greatest writings in the world are Shakespeare's and the Bible. And they are the simplest written.

BERLIN STAMP SALE ! DRAWS MANY EXPERTS ' ' (By Associated Press.) BERLIN. Jan. 7 Philatello experts

from all parts of the world came to Berlin to attend the great stamp sale just held here, which It is claimed has a wider range than any ever before held in Europe. The total number of lots was 5,387 and the value at upset prices exceeded $250,000 nominally; but he rarer spec imens were not priced, and for many there were no standards. During the first day's sale there was a rush for rare Argentine, Brazilian and Bolivian issues. United States Issues Included the only known cancelled copy of the "Franklin Carriers", brown orange error, of 1851, the Livingstone (Alabama) 5c blue, of 1861 and three blocks of the new U. S. A. 90o and 30c issues, of 1869, with flags inserted. The gem of the American collection was a postal envelope of the Confederate States of America bearing on the right hand a 5c stamp in black, on tho left a Confederate seaman nailing the "Stars and Bars" to the mast, and in the center the official post office poet's lyrioal efforts, as follows: "On, on to the rescue, the vandals are coming, Go beat them with bayonet and sabre and spear. Drive them back to the desolate land they are leaving, Go, trust in God, you have nothing to fear." WOMEN SIT IN JURY TRYING ROBBERY CASE EVANSVILLE, Ind., Jan. 7.
