uen. Leonard wood not many years ago directed the cleanup campaign in Cuba which stamped out the yellow fever and other diseases

and made it a- healthful place in which to live," says the Indianapolis Star. "The island is now undergoing a financial rehabilitation under tha

supervision of Gen. Enoch H. eventually will make the island a

in which to do business. The rapid descent from the heights of undreamed prosperity to the depths of financial demoralization resulted from sthe inflation of the sugar market and its unexpected slump after the war, a collapse which also - affected a number of big American houses carrying a heavy load of the high-priced product. "Cuban producers of sugar, were receiving a , little less than two cents a pound for their staple . in the summer of 1914. They were getting 25 cents in the spring of 1920. Most of them . refused to accept a slight reduction when a sales commission was formed to take up all the Cuban ; product, and many held their stocks for an increase to 30 cent3 a pound. The result of the ." unexpected prosperity was an orgy of spending rsuch as the "island never had known. Every avenue of business was affected by the period of inflation. The collapse of the sugar market carried everything else with it, the banks generally closing their doors as they became involved in tho crash. "Gen. Crowder has been called upon to per- , form the twofold mission of reviving the banks ; and of preventing a veritable civil war over the

-succession to the presidency. Thus far four of

After Dinner Stories Attache Akira Den. of the Japanese embassy, was talking at a dinner itbout the outcry against the wearing of one-piece bathing suits by girls. "If a girl is a swimmer," he said. "why shouldn't she wear this onepiece suit? Why burden herself with n skirt and stockings when she wants lo swim? "These beach censors could learn a lesson from the Japanese princess to whom a visiting English-woman said: " 'I saw a Japanese girl bathing in a river quite naked yesterday. Is it thought modest for women to bathe naked in Japan?' " 'It is not thought immodest,' said the princess, 'for women to bathe naked in Japan, but it is, thought very immodest to look at them when they are bathing.' " - She looked at him doubtfully after the proposal. "The man 1 marry," she said, "must be both brave and brainy," "Well," he declared, "I think I can lay claim to both." "I admit you are brave," she replied, "because you saved my life when our boat upset the other day, but that wasn't brainy, was it?" . "It certainly was," he retorted, "I upset the boat." fou hair will welcome 'Blue Devil and fluff right up Advertisement.

the 16 banks have

of stability. The government treasury is empty, with little prospect of receiving considerable sums due from the principal banks. In spite of this situation Gen. Crowder found a Cuban budget calling for an expenditure of $136,000,000 for 1922, following the spending of approximately $160,000,000. in the preceding year. The

American administrator has served 'notice that the budget must be trimmed to $60,000,000. ! "The political disorders from which Cuba has suffered followed the attempt of President Menocal to dominate the elections of 1920, being barred himself by a constitutional provision prohibiting any president from serving three terms in succession. With thousands of electoral contests pending, the courts inoperative and business tied up by a moratorium, the island was virtually bordering on chaos when Gen. Crowder arrived. The political situation has been rem

Crowder, who heal thy place edied and the to receipts is

banking law will curb a dangerous economic situation and the Cuban congress has shown a

readiness to carry out Crowder's wishes in enacting necessary business legislation.

"One of Cuba's chief weaknesses has been the fact that it is a one-industry country, the planters growing sugar to the virtual exclusion of every other product. The cane grower's situation also has been far from satisfactory, as conditions have permitted the mill owner to dis

pose of the sugar as he wished, permitting the grower no voice in handling the product, paying him nothing on receipt of the cane at the mill and ignoring claims which banks or merchants might have had on the raw cane for loans advanced earlier in the season. With this state of affairs remedied and the industry reduced to a sound business basis which will permit a profit somewhat higher than the two-cent margin which prevailed before the war, Cuba should enter a period of reasonable prosperity. In this event Gen. Crowder will deserve to rank with other American military men who have achieved great success in solving the delicate problems of Latin America."

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" THE JOY OF LIFE Cream rises to tho top. It is the richest of the milk. In this act of Nature is a truth significant of all Nature. It puts the best nearest to us if we will but take it. Joy saturates all life. The dumb animals know it. Hardly is a kitten given freedom in this world before it starts to play. Most of us crush the flowers of our lives before they come to their bloom and fragrance, 6imply by not remembering that joy is for us first of all. ' ' And joy is everywhere! Before all else we must draw it into our hearts and give it a regular place there. Joy wants to come in wherever it will be appreciated. How stimulating it is how rare in its simplicity and expression! If you have joy within you, you understand what the stir of life means, and you know what to look for to satisfy your soul. Joy that Is aroused by beauty, that is stimulated by work and service, that keeps growing more wonderful under the spur of laughter, kindness and justice. Joy that rises out of the ground after the fresh shower. Joy that gilds the coat of the ground when the sun kisses the earth through parted clouds. Joy that comes from having done your best. Joy that dances from the petals and leaves of the flowers and gives shade from trees. Joy that runs about hunting out people. The joy of life. Just glad because you are here and are given a chance at something. And what joy is possible in recreation, in sport and the out-of-doors, in study and reading, in travel. Also the joy we get from our friends, in trying each day to understand them Just a little better and just a little deeper. Joy will be with you if you remember that it is here that it is everywhere you go. But you must take it and give it I

No. 114 The Fountain Pencil An ordinary pencil Is held between the tips of the finders and thumb. By merely squeezing it drops of water trickle from the pencil. The secret is a tiuy piece of sponge, which is secretly held between the thumb and fingers, prior to taking tha pencil. The pencil and sponga are held together as illustrated, and a little squeeze of the sponge produces the marvelous result. The tponge is dropped in the lap at the finish. Copyright, X9St, by Public Ledger Compmw Rippling Rhymes By Walt Mason RAIN AND DROUTH The water's piled In my front yard, all kinds of water, soft and hard, and still the rain comes slopping down, and saturates the weary town. The rain against the window beats, and catfish throng the village streets, and even frogs and dutjks are tired; they have more rain than they desired. And while the day's so wildly wet, I read the Gophertown Gazzette, the old home paper that has brought for years its freight of Gems of thought. And back in Gophertown, it seems, all dried up are the babbling streams; there is no water in the wells; a parch ing population yells for just a little slice of rain, and all its yelling is in vain. No rain clouds gather in the sky, the river beds are dusty dry, while fish sit up along the brink and gasp for something fit to drink. The weather should reform; why does it always send a storm where there should be a cloudless sky. and send a drouth where it is dry? Why does it drench the western coast, and dodge the plains that need rain most? Why am I always stuck in mud, or "battling through a turbid flood, while other fellows voice their wrath because they QUALITY-FOOD' It' not volume, but quality in diet that aids healthful growth.

cannot have a bath? The weather bureau makes me tired; all winter long it's kept me mired. M r .1 r usings tor tne livening MY RADIOPHONE I heard a princess's wedding march, while sitting at my ease, Also a lot of scandal and hot news from o'er the seas. I heard Madame TopnotesH sing a bit from "Trovatore," And I got the weather forecasts and thp market ticker lore. I just regulate the short waves and am all fixed for the night, If I get the doodleflopper and gazinkus working right. If I get the dinglewhizzer to co-ordin ate just so, With the crystal and antenae, then the news begins to flow. I hear about the bonus and the prize . fights and the flu. And I get some hints on hygiene that inform me what to do. A lot of story tellers bust in on me from all ways. And I have a joke from Jolson and a Bong from Nora Bayes. While the heart of this wide nation throbs its message through the air, I can hear what I like of it and not leave my morris chair. There is nothing under cover; science now takes care of that If you can't afford the opera, it comes blithely to 3-our flat. Oh, there aren't any secrets in the world that I don't know, For the gossips often reach me through my litle radio. An article on nutritious foods says: "there is about as much nourishment in a quart of peanuts as there is in three pounds of steak." But no gravy nothing for the dog and no hash the next day. Optician's advertisement advises wives to look after their husband's eyes. Can't tell what they will look at these days.

"MARY" IS BECOMING 4 LESS COMMON NAME IN BRITISH EMPIRE By Associated Press) LONDON, March 13. "Mary" Is becoming less common as a girl's name,in the British Isles, say the organizers of the fund for the presentation of a wedding gift to Princess Mary in the name of "The Marys of the British Empire."- These are very difficult times and in the really poor boroughs no collecting centers were foirmed, but the organizer of perhaps the poorest district in which there was a center said the greatest enthusiasm was Bhown by the Marys living there. In a rural district just outside London an old man brought three shilling and six pence wrapped up in a scrap of paper on which was written in pencil the message: "From my dear Mary who died last Christmas after nearly 50 years married." Such gifts from the old were matched hy others from young enthusiasts like the small girl who enclosed four shillings and six pence which she collected among her little friends.
