. HAVE WE CHANGED?
We note with interest a recent dis
patch from the S. S. Berengeria en
ioute to New York, that the Prince
of Wales is giving ambitious dow
agers and mothers of adenoidal de
butantes an eyeful, thought admitted
ly causing them intense disappoint
ment by failure to recognize their
“come on" stares.
But that isn’t the most interest
ing phase of the coming visit to Am
erica of Prince Howard.
It seems that so long as the coun
try is not on the verge of a visit
from some titled personage from
across the ocean America is the
land of the free, the home of the
brave, cradled in liberty, the birth
place of democracy where snobbery
and class distinction is minimized; a
land where all have the right to ac
quire and maintain sufficient pride in
self accomplishment to place them
on a social par with the so-callea
“best" of the world until—we are lo
be visited by an undoubtedly splen- j
did young man who, by chance of
birth, has the title of Prince append
ed to his name which, except for the
said accident of birth ,might well.
have been Smith or Jones.
But with the visit comes the real
ization of the fact that after all we
are not so far removed from our he
ro-worshipping ancestors who were
willing to recognize, admire and obey |

DR. COUE HERE AGAIN
Among the many notables recent
ly arriving in New York was Dr.
Emile Coue, famous mental healer,
whose “Every clay in every way”
was merica’s formula not so Ion
ago. Dr. Coue is in the United States
on a seven weeks’ lecture tour.
a man whose physical and mental
powers made it {possible for him to
smpass all his companions in mur
der, pillage, arson, and otherwise, vi
olate all the laws we now call Chris
tian. For the man our ancestors
chose to elevate because of his supe
rior accomplishments in an age of
brutality and reign of force, is now
the ancestor of the visiting prince.
And we are the descendants of those
who worshiped and fawned at his
feet. Have we changed so much?
Mars Is Having Cold Spell
Astronomers See Snow
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept .11.—That
ancient sidereal swashbuckler, Mars,
now believed by some celestial ob
servers to be declining into a mere
astral roue .today took the lead over
radio, moonshine, baseball and poli
tics as a topic of conversation among
laymen on the Pacific coast .
This was due to the assertions of
astronomers that our nearest plane
tary neighbor had arrived at a point
nearer to the earth than he has been
for more than 100 years ,or a mere
34,000,000 miles away. This is 14,
000,000 nearer than his usual dist
ance.
While the man in the street was*
speculating on the possibility of this
brother speck in the cosmos being in
habited and astrologers were compu- j
"ing the effect of its proximity on
the dispositions and fortunes of
men, trained observers on Mount
Hamilton, near San Jose ,and at Mt.
Wilson, near Los Angeles, have their
telescopes, cameras, mirrors and
spectroscopes trained on the passer
by to record any idiosyncrasy he may
display. Elsewhere the radio, with
its greedy antennae ,is groping in
the ether for anything audible the
sphere might by some chance cast
off.
While the more credulous and ro
mantic are hopeful of some sign
that may serve to link the earth
a little closer to the solar brother
hood, the skeptical scientists in the
mountain observatories expect no
such thing to happen. The most
they hope for, they said today, was
a little more knowledge with respect
to the atmospheric and climatic
conditions on Mars.

CIRCULATING LIBRARY HAS
MANY POPULAR BOOKS
Seward has a circulating librarj
of popular fiction that is not patron
ized as liberally as it should be. Mr.
Urbach recently received a large
number of the latest works of fic
tion which he is allowing subscribers
(o read for 15 cents per volume, pro
vided they take out a dollar mem
bership. This dollar is returned to
the subscriber when leaving town.
A good circulating library is a won
derful help in passing the long win
ter days ahead of us. Take a subscrip
tion now, as many books are being
added each boat.
