The old scare, the “yellow peril.” is once more bobbing its head above lthe surface. Some military authorities are predicting a war between the United States and Japan for control of the Pacific. The Japanese invasion of Siberia may be the starting point. It is quite certain, however, that Japan is too wise to tackie the job alone, which indicates a collusion between Japan and some ,other military power or powers to carry out such a purpose. Uncie Sam may have plenty of business on his hands in the n »ar future. The world is far from ijeing settled. Prof. David lodd, of Amherst college, will try 4.^"^sgnal Mars from a ballon April 2^'N^Jeii that planet will be closest torthe earth. The tests are to be ni/ide with a recorder which will receive and hold impressions of atmospheric waves which may be studied at leisure. Sounds crazy, but then this is an age of miracles. f The federal trade commission at Washington attributes the high cost of living in part to the cost of inadequate distribution of foods and recommends that marketing facilities and processes be improved at the large centers as a means of lowering prices. The telephone, telegraph and postjal service in Vienna are reported to be “rotten.” Here's a good chance for the sob squad to organize an other "help the enemy first" move ment. Two Louisville girls were fined for disorderly conduct, which consisted of smoking cigarettes on the street. Will the nineteenth amendment give women the right to smoke wherever men do? “Chickens come home to roost.” The Russian revolution was "made in Germany,” and now Russian revolutionists are heading and fomenting the German revolution.

There seems to be something in a name. The Michigan governir. who says he will uot ask anj of the recently convicted office-holders to resign. is named Sleeper. Congressman Sabath would stts- j pend the dry law so people could get i booze for the flu. It wouldn't work. I Folks would get the flu tor the booze. It will tax the ingenuity of democratic spell-binders to sax worse things about the republican leaders | than they are saying about each ; other. A California court refused to let the jury in a whiskey stealing cast sample the evidence. Is tin re to be no prix ilea, d class in this country.’ ; Shot manufacturers report a shortage of hides. Strange. They've certainly skinned us sufficient!} to have a large surplus stock. Isn't it about time for the people to strike against strikes? Sometimes the worm will turn. Better to Give Than Lend. Give, ami you may keep your friend If you lose your money; lend and the chances are that you lose your friend If ever you get hack your money.— Bulxver-Lytton.

NEWFOUNDLAND rich in iron Enough Ore There to Supply the World for at Least a Century, if Not Longer. Lord Morris in a lecture at St. John’s Wood Presbyterian church. Marlborough place, London, described the development of Newfoundland for the last 400 years, “from the time of the early colonizers up to the day when that great captain of industry. Lord Northcliffe, established the great paper! mills that are noxx supplying the Titties ■ the Daily Mail, the Daily Mirror and the Sunday Pictorial x^th paper.” He said that in Nexvfoundlaml today there were many paper “propositions’’ quite as attractive, if properly de- : velopi d. as that of Lord Northcliffe and I his brother. Lord Rothermere. '1 here were also sufficient fish or! the Nexvfottndland banks and along the Newfoundland ttnd Labrador shores tv feed the xvhole of the British empire They had only touched the fringe of | that great fishing industry in which lay the possibilities of cheap food for Eng ! Ittnd. Lord Morris drexv an attractive pic ture of wonderful mineral possibilities ■ showing that Nexvfoundlaml was the second largest producer of iron in the' British empitv. England coming first j i Thore was enough iron ore to supply 1 all the needs of the British empire and i of the world for the next hundred 1 । years.—London Mail.
