C., seems to be as hard hit on the housing question as many of the coal mining districts. Renters have formed an organization of 9,000 members to combat the real estate combination. Many government employees are homeless and are erecting tents on vacant lots. Rents have been raised beyond their capacity to pay and nearly 2,000 eviction notices have been served. Inasmuch as rent is one "* of the costs of living. President Coolidge contends that the government has a direct financial interest in the matter. Whether this view applies outside of the District of Columbia is another matter, but it may be difficult to draw a legal line. —o — — Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Byland have moved into the Wm. Bowld residence, formerly owned by Wm. Masters. M Journal 52 times, a year

It grows mostly in Barbadoes and parts of the Sudan. The leaves have small holes in them, and when a gentle breeze passes through them a sweet whistle results. A strong wind will cause a note as loud as a siren.

GATEWAY TO THE CEMETERY j There'is an old and trite say-j ing that most people dig their] graves with their teeth. A big insurance company claims that half of the illness of its policy holders originate in indigestion, and our greatest English and American surgeons assert that character is considerably regulated by what goes into the stomach. A celebrated French physician declared that “man’s best friend was his stomach but he abused that friend like a dog.” Herbert Spencer, the philosopher, always ate a heavy dinner an hour before going to bed—and never was able to figure out why he had insomnia and indigestion. Napoleon bolteh his meals. He gorged. He was forever munching candy. He could conquer nations but couldn’t master his own appetite. Shakespeare’s marvelous plays could never have been written by a dyspeptic. He ate carefully, sensibly, and had excellent digestion. Every lover’s quarrel, every spat between husband and wife, begins in the stew pot or the oven, says a celebrated English surgeon. Good cooks cause more indigestion than bad cooks, for tasty victuals entice people to over-eat. Most folks, when the stomach is upset, blame it on some particular things they have eaten. When you can master and control your own appetite you can master and control other things. The stomach can easily be the gateway to the cemetery. — —o THE NEW SOUTH Like a faithful worker the South is proud of its achievements. It was not always thus. Time was when visitors to the South very often came back with uncomplimentary reports of the South’s backwardness, its easy-going-ness. Its people were called unprogressive. Its conditions were unsatisfactory. It evoked mqpe criticism than commendation. Those days are over. A New South has been bom. The South of today compares favorably with other parts of America in its progressiveness, its prosperity, its energy', its enthusiasm. No section of the whole land is devoting more attention to improving its educational facilities, both elementary and advanced. No section is applying itself more diligently to the building of good roads. No section is making more progress in the establishment' of new industries. No section is making more headway in* developing cheap electric power. No section is more alive to the need for adopting diversified farming. No section is showing more eagerness to build attractive modern homes. In no section have trunk railroads added so much to their efficiency and strength. Yes, the New South may w'ell invite inspection, because it can stand inspection. It deserves inspection—the inspection alike of holiday-seekers, horn e-seekers, workers, and capitalists—and its getting many of them. —o NO ONE CAN PLACE A LIMIT Ezra Meeker, who blazed the Oregon Trail in 1852, driving an ox team from the Middle West to the Pacific coast, has just completed the return trip by airplane. When he yrent West there were no stage coaches along the route; no railroad penetrating the forests and' deserts. The airplane and the automobile had only been dreamed of. And perhaps these more modern means of transport would never have been devised and perfected had not such men as Ezra Meeker, pathfinder and pioneer, employed to the fullest capacity the thing at hand, emphasizing the need of a better method. Ezra Meeker retraces, in a day or two, the route which required months to cover seventy years ago. Men talk into a simple' device and are heard halfway around the world. Seas ate crossed and recrossed in comfort and comparative safety. And even greater and better things have been accomplished by contemporaneous thoughtful ityAs men have been emancipated from tedious plodding, they have gained a clearer concept of their freedom. The manner of this deliverance has not been accidental or merely evolutionary. Thought, rightly directed, has been the agency. This being true, no one can place a limit beyond which such development and growth shall not go. —o i To kmiun Goa*-.
