IF CONGRESS WOULD ACT EXPEDITIOUSLY Just suppose— Just suppose that Congress, at the short session about to open, would start in from the very first day to act with precision, and judgment, and vision, and to act expeditiously. Suppose all unnecessary talk were eliminated. Suppose there were no dallying, no playing politics. Suppose the members of Congress joined in a movement to expedite public business with the same alacrity that is shown by boards of directors of great private business or industrial concerns. Just suppose— Would not a course like this on the part of Congress thrill the people and remove the general feeling of irritation akin to disgust*with which the public usually contemplates Congress when it is in session. But why may not the public expect this expeditiousness from Congress? Perhaps because the methods of the Nation's legislative body are fixed and influenced by tradition. Congress is traditionally slow. It is hard to break established custom. But if public sentiment were aroused more thoroughly on this; if the people demanded prompt and constructive action from Congress, they would surely get it. In this country, it is government "of the people, by the people, for the people. It is not government of, by and for an oligarchy or clique. The people rule—unless they abdicate their sovereignty by refusing persistently to vote. from Congress?

CARS FOR PERISHABLES ADEQUATE California is acquiring a real boon—a service from the railroads that is contributing immensely to the produced riches of this commonwealth. For the first time in its history California this year has been provided with a sufficient number of refrigerator cars to carry its perishable products to market without delay or loss. With the inauguration of regional cooperation among railroads throughout the country for the equalization of transportation of freight, car shortages are being averted, and this happy condition is expected to continue indefinitely. California produced and shipped this year the largest grape crop of its history. Other perishable crops in huge volume were produced. And yet not a single instance of car shortage was reported. This augurs well for the development of productions of California orchards, vineyards and gardens. Given ample car service, just at the time it is needed, growers in this state can produce with profit. This form of productivity is sure to grow and expand under the impetus that hot marketing facilities will give. The spirit that is thankful for favors received is the spirit of utility. Some say, "Lead us not into temptation' in the Lord's power and then go right out to seek temptation." There is a bit of savage in every man, despite the culture and refinement of civilization.

DINNER SHOWERS Olga Nethersole tells the following story concerning a little maid she employed. One day, while dressing for the treatre, there was an unusually heavy downpour of rain, and Miss Nethersole, peering out of the window at the overflowing gutters, remarked: "Why, Lizzie, it is almost like the flood!" "Flood, miss?" queried the girl. "Yes, the flood. Noah, you know and the ark." "I never have no time to look at the papers, miss, explained the girl apologetically."

Health and Diet Advice By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" COOKED NON-STARCHY VEGETABLES It is almost impossible to overeat on any of the non-starchy vegetables, and those who are learning to restrict their diet will find they can satisfy themselves as easily by using a second helping of these non-starchy vegetables, instead of taking an additional amount of protel or starch. You will also find it will be easy to overcome the habit of eating desserts if an extra dish of non-starchy vegetables is used instead. Of course, I do not believe it is ever a good plan to eat until you feel full, but those who have been in the habit of overeating will find they can cut down on the concentrated foods more easily if more non-starchy vegetables are used in their stead. There are a great many of the leafy non-starchy vegetables growing wild, and patients should find it an interesting study to hunt out the different kinds that may be found in the fields. The following list classifies those which are most easily obtainables GOOD:—Celery, Spinach, Small String Beans, Asparagus, Summer Squash, Cucumber, Egg Plant, Beet Tops, Turnip Tops, Small Beets, Small Carrots, Small Parsnips, Small Turnip, Pumpkin, Lettuce, Okra, Chavotes, Oyster Plant (Salisfy), Mallow, Fale, Zuechini.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1924 THE BEST OF ADVICE THINKING ANIMALS A gentleman who believes that evolution was invented by Darwin and the Devil has been resting largely the questionable statement that dogs do not think. How do we know that animals have not a language of their own? There is more reason to suspect that they think than that they do not. Napoleon was one of those who intended there is a link between animals and Deity. His views on the subject are interesting, even if they are not authoritative. To him it was presumption in order to say that animals do not link. "A horse has memory, knowledge and love. He knows his master from the servants, though he latter are more constantly with him." "I had a horse myself who knew me from any other person, and manifested by capering and loudly marching with his head erect when I was on his back—a knowledge that he bore a superior to others by whom he was surrounded." "Neither would he allow any other person to mount him except the groom who constantly took care of him, and when ridden by him his motions were far different and such as seemed to say that he was conscious he bore an inferior." "When I lost my way I was accustomed to throw the reins down a neck, and he always discovered it in places where I, with all my observation and boosted superior knowledge, could not." Who can deny the sagacity of plants? Plants are so many animals who eat and drink, and there are gradual upsets up to man, who is only COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying DELIQUENCY OF PARENTS—Kansas City Times The problem of juvenile delinquency is to be checked up squarely to fathers and mothers. Recently, an Eastern judge said it was the parents who should be brought into court and dealt with there. Judge Porterfield of the Kansas City juvenile court says parental negligence is at the root of much youthful wrongdoing. His opinion is shared by an official of the National Probation Association, who has been investigating juvenile crime and delinquency here. The condition is not confined to Kansas City; it is general. And agreement as to the source of the trouble is general. Too many parents fail to take an intelligent interest in their children. An opinion of juvenile authorities in Kansas City and elsewhere is that boys and girls are allowed too much liberty in the use of motor cars. Parents do not know where their children are at night; they do not know how their children are spending their leisure hours; they do not know who are the companions of their children, or what forms of amusement the young people are seeking. It is all very elemental; very fundamental. What service can there be in court reform, in more effective probation or other moves to deal with delinquency if parents, through their negligence, constantly are creating a fresh supply of delinquents? It is true that courts and probation officials may reach and perhaps influence ON THE DOCTRINE OF RACE Of few terms in general use has the average man a less accurate comprehension than of the word "race." There is, it appeared to Edward Augustus Freeman; English historian, a distinct doctrine of race, and of sympathies founded on race, distinct from the feeling of community of religion, and distinct from the feeling of nationality in the narrower sense. "It is not so simple or easy a reeling as either of these two. It does not in the same way lie on the surface; it is not in the same way grounded on obvious facts which are plain to every man's understanding. "The doctrine of race is essentially an artificial doctrine, a learned doctrine. It is an inference from facts which the mass of mankind never could have found out for themselves; facts which, without a distinctly learned teaching, could never be brought home to them in any intelligible shape. Now what is the value of such a doctrine? "Does it follow that, because it is confessedly artificial, because it springs, not from spontaneous impulse, but from a learned teaching, it is therefore necessarily foolish, mischievous, perhaps unnatural? "It may perhaps be safer to hold that it may, like other doctrines and sentiments, have a range within which it may work for good, while in some other range it may work for evil. It may in short be a doctrine which is neither to be rashly accepted, nor rashly cast aside, but one which may need to be guided, regulated, modified, according to time, place, or circumstance." "I must emphatically say that nothing can be more shallow." When I lost my way I was accustomed to throw the reins down on a neck, and he always discovered it in places where I, with all my observation and boosted superior knowledge, could not. Who can deny the sagacity of plants? Plants are so many animals who eat and drink, and there are gradations up to man, who is only the most perfect of them all. He reasons better. Incidentally, persons who credit Charles Darwin with fostering the idea of Evolution as it is now called, do so ignorantly. The theory of Evolution; or Transformation as it is sometimes labeled, has not first conceived by Darwin, or by Alfred Russel Wallace, who observed the operation of Circumstantial Selection simultaneously with Charles. As Bernard Shaw says, "When Christotle grouped animals with backbones as blood relations, he began the sort of classification which, when extended by Darwin, monkeys and men, so shocked my uncle." Two thousand years before Darwin was born, the Greek philosopher Empedocles opined that all forms of life are transformations of four elements: fire, air, earth and water, affected by the two innate forces of attraction and repulsion, or love and hate.

Sycamore St. Universality UNIVERSAL telephone service must be universal in scope—it must reach anyone, anywhere. But it must be universal also in cost—it must be within the financial reach of everyone, everywhere. Years of research have been required to provide the telephone instruments, switchboards, wire and supplementary apparatus which afford intercommunication between housewives, shopkeepers, farmers and millions of other American telephone users. But these facilities do not in themselves make America's telephone service a universal service. Telephone engineers have spent years of additional study in order to build, maintain and operate this nation-wide system so economically that the cost of service may be kept at all times well below its value to the telephone user. Upon the two fundamentals of extensiveness in scope and economy in cost the Bell System has built the most universal telephone service in the World.
