The Briar Patch
Thank goodness ii can't happen here, but what if the walls of Jiouses should suddenly gain the power of speech and begin to re
peat all that had been said Inside them? We wouldn't like very much of wJiat we'd hear, probably. If one dared to dispute a man of great wisdom, they'd be tempted to say that the tongue instead of money was the root of all evil. But there would be nice things too: like the child whose friend was a newcomer in her school. The stranger inadvertently broke a rule; she broke the rule too, giving as her reason, "I didn't want her t( have to stay in for recess by herself." "i ' v Custom has it that four grains of corn to the hill are the proper number. The Indians dedicated a grain to each of the gods of the four winds. The old rhyme our fathers gave as their reason was: "One for the blackbird, One for the crow, One for the cutworm, and one Jo grow." We might try the plan of a former Sultan of Zanzibar. He had every tree that was of no use destroyed. In its place, he had a tree planted that was either valuable for its fruit, its timber or its beauty. Today long before the land is visible, the odor of spices is carried far out to sea.

. 1 From big league . baseball star to the rank of world's leading evangelist is the odd road to fame taken by this American, who was born in Ames, la,. "Nov. 19. 1863. He was a professional baseball player for 11 years 1883-1890 with the Chicago. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh National league teams. He suddenly decided the ministry was his proper career and never played baseball again. As an evangelist his fame spread, rapidly, enormous crowds attending his services. It is said he preached to more people a total of 80,000,000 than any other in the history of Christianity. An ardent prohibitionist he is credited with exercising the great influence in, bringing about prohibition in the United States. He died in Winona Lake, Ind., Nov. 6, 1935. Who was he?
By LILIAN CAMPBELL Central Press Writer 2 This American statesman was born in Boston, Mass., May 12, 1850. At 30, he entered politics, became a congressman in 1887, and a member of the Senate in 1893 where he remained nearly 32 years. His fame rests largely on his vigorous opposition to the past-war policies f President Woodrow Wilson, and the Senate fight to keep the United States out of the League of Nations, in which he was a leader. Later he served as a delegate to the Washington Conference on Limitation of Armaments in 1921. His death occurred Nov. 9, 1924. His son and namesake is :iqw a United States senator. Who was he?

Ten others including thres women, were sentenced to life imprisonment and an undisclosed number to jail terms ranging from one to 25 years. Ten persons were acquitted. The announcement said the insurrection was planned in great detail and information on' it was given in advance to a "Western embassy at Prague."
The agency 'described the revolt as a "well-organized plan, including D-Day and H-Hour." The ringleaders were -convicted on charges of attempting an antistate armed coup, high treason and espionage, the agency said.
-It is all in the way you look at it: it is work if you roll up your sleeves to do it; if you do it for a living, then it is a job. If you detest it, it is hard labor; but if you'd rather do it than eat when you're hungry, then it is a hobby. -

Roscoe and state police bureau of criminal investigation also began inquiries but no arrests had . been made. Meanwhile, Robeson has been named co-chairman, with Judge Norval K.

Independent
Mine Union May Join With AFL BELLEVILLE, 111., Aug. 30. Ten locals of the Progressive Mine Workers of America today awaited approval of their decision to reaffiliate with the AFL Trades and Labor Assembly of Belleville. A favorable vote by the AFL executive boaard was expected to be the signal for some 15,000 members of PMWA workers in Illinois to vote AFL affiliation in their areas. Drexel Collins, special representative of the PMWA, said the move by the 10 locals to switch allegiance had been considered for some time. Collins said he conferred with Arthur Nowotny, president of the Trades and Labor Assembly, and Nowotny was "highly pleased" with the decision of the locals. The Progressives withdrew from the AFL in 1945 when the international admitted John L. Lewis' United Mine Workers. Lewis later led his miners from the union while the Progressives Continued to work in close co-
I operation with the AFL here and
in surrounding areas. i'-.
' Collins said he was assured that the executive board of the AFL would act quickly on the re- J instatement bid of the 2,000 workers in the 10 PMWA locals. 1 I
If the AFL decides to take the 10 locals back into its ranks, PMWA leaders throughout the state are expected to make similar requests of AFL bodies in their areas.
