"Proclaim Liberty through all the land" The liberty Bell Those who are governed "The power to tax is the Hollywood Is That Way Down in Hollywood, apparently everybody learns one part the role of the broad-minded divorcee. As a speaking nart, the role is simple. It goes: "My husband (or wri'e) is the finest man (or woman) 1 have ever known. We are parting friends." Miss Arline Judge, taking up separate abode recently, varied the line hardly at all when describing her husband, Weslev Ruggles, movie director. She said: "Weslev is the finest man I have ever met, and I expect ex-pect to play in his next picture. I am happy to have him direct me." In the simple society that exists this side of the movie capital, the woman who is lucky enough to capture the finest man she ever met. will normally hang to him for dear life. Likewise the man who is fortunate enough to wed his ideal. Indeed, to us this side of Hollywood, that seems a natural thing. Hut HolUwood is a puzling place. In the movie capital capi-tal many a "star" make- more money in a few months than most of' us make in a lifetime, yet ends up destitute. Why be unhappv with the simple life? Weave An Interesting Pattern W. Somerset Maugham, successful British author and plav wright. preaches the philosophy of futility. Man, he say-, is born he suffers and dies. Maugham also points out. however, that we are given the opportunity to make our "meaningless"' pattern an intereseting one. Whether or not you believe Maugham's philosophy, you will agree that we need more than eating, sleeping and working for a well-rounded life. Tom nianv of us are engrossed only in making a living. As a result we often feel dull and stale. Our life pattern is ea-t along uninteresting lines. Place a few odd caricatures in your pattern. These mav be accomplished through the development of hobbies. Nor do you have to be a millionaire aboard a luxurious yacht to en iov diversion. Plant a garden. Iluild something. Collect stamps. Go fishing. Take up golf. Vhi"ver you do do it well and enjoy yourself. Make your hobby one that counts for relaxation and diversion. And you'll' find yourself doing your life work just so much better because of the new color scheme in your life pattern. Things To Laugh At WhatWer" mav be your opinion about the Princeton-inspired "Veterans f Future Wars," there is this healthy note about the whole satiric affair America still retains its freedom and ability to laugh off a few things. Where else in the civilized world today could a group of college students turn a major nafional issue into a farcical iest? The salient thing to remember about this particular bit of political horseplay is that it demonstrates the right of the real American to speak what he thinks, and to ridicule something some-thing he doesn't approve. And if tiie "Veterans of Future Wars" can, through elcer satire, bring home to the nation the utter folly of war, they've made a real contribution. The whole nation ought to laugh with them. A man judges a new family by its car; a woman waits till she sees its wash on the line.-r Detroit Free Press.

FARMERS SAVE ON INTEREST Utah farmers saved more than $396,000 a year on interest by j refinancing debts with the Farm J Credit administration ssnce its organization in May 1933, according ac-cording to an analysis made public pub-lic today by the Farm Credit administration. Making good use of the cooperative coop-erative facilities of their already-established national farm loan association, Utah farmers refinanced refin-anced over $11,659,000 of farm debts, carrying average interest rates of 7.3 per cent a year, with long-term federal land bank and Land Bank commissioner's loans bearing interest rates of 5 per cent a year or less. From May 1933 to the end of last year, 3,800 Utah farmers obtained ob-tained $10,621,100 from the land bank and commissioner for the specific purpose- of refinancing old debts. This was about 90.7 per cent of the total amount of loans made by the land bank and Commissioner in the state. The federal land bank made 1900 first mortgage ' loans and the Land Bank commiajiioner 3500 loans. Many of the commissioner's commis-sioner's loans were made on second sec-ond mortgage security to farmers farm-ers who also obtained first mortgage mort-gage loans. Interest rates on all federal land bank loans oki and new were temporarily reduced by an act of congress last summer. Where land bank loans are made through national farm loan associations, as-sociations, the rate is 3 ' per cent for all interest payable in the year ending June 30, 1936, and 4 per cent lox the two years following. j Favorable investment market j conditions when the Federal land ; banks sold their last issue of i bonds has enabled the banks to j offer new loans, for the present, j at the interest rate of 4 per cent ' a year. This is the lowest rate j at which the banks have ever j lent money in the 19 years of i their history. ' CRVISC TO Deck Morgan CHAPTER IX JANE moved away from Dirk, on the ship's hurricane deck, leaving leav-ing him with his own hurt and Injured In-jured pride. Hot tears stung her cheeks, but she wouldn't let Dirk them. Now they were both aware of a woman, heavily veiled and in autumn au-tumn furs, who walked along the rail, pausing at Intervals. She was alone. For a moment she stood and looked out over the huge swells In the sea. Jane watched her breathless. Her figure was of the cast which should remain ' forever In black velvet or as now tn a eilbouette against the early evening. There was something some-thing imposing about her appear-anca appear-anca The figure of a man was rapidly approaching her. It appeared as if he were going to speak, and she turned to him. revealing her face. She merely looked at the man with as Ironic smile. The man walked away hurriedly, disconcerted before bet smile.

Bright Moments IN GREAT LIVES During the Boxer rebellion, the late Admiral Togo, considered by the Japanese their greatest naval commander of all time, met with Admiral Alexeieff. then in charge of the Russian Asiatic fleet. Russia Rus-sia and Japan hJ been at odds for some time, and each commander command-er tried to draw the other out. Togo proved a good listener. And one who records- their conversation conversa-tion said: The woman had a medallion-like profile. He saw her stretch her arms out over the water, and her lips moTed almost imperceptibly But the words somehow reached his ears. "1 don't know what 1 have done," she said, "to deserve all this un-happlnes." un-happlnes." She said it In a deep, throaty voice that was less theatrical theatri-cal than convincing. Dirk was sympathetic and sorry for her. This was the penalty for his honesty of sentiment tn all bis to her, but she moved away from him down the rail. He followed her, not knowing why. until she was lost in the maze of passage-i passage-i ways. ! For a moment he had almost for-: for-: gotten Jane Weston! But he still remembered that he had hurt her i with bis frankness, and he was sorry for that. She had done something some-thing to him already. Kisses under this moonlight would alter any man's personality. He was walking along Deck B toying with the' Idea that he was really In love with Jane when he met the purser talking with the veiled woman. He stopped on the rail to avoid the very meeting he had been seeking, and lit a cigaret. "I can't sleep in my room for the men In the next suite," she said. "I've even had 'strange knocks on my door tonight. I'm a little afraid. And now theyre playing poker, next door, and saying things which are less shocking than loud. I took this cruise simply to rest my nerves, and get away from that sort of thing. But I don't like to annoy. They are quite possibly tired business men. Can't you give me another suite on bai"d?" ""piIE ship was filled. The purser was sorry he didn't have an other suite. And It was obvious that he did not wish to disturb the poker players from whom his largest larg-est tips would come. Then Dirk acted on impulse. He stepped up to the purser quickly, and tipped bis fingers to his bead. "1 beg your pardon. Would Suite AA do for Madame?" he said, smll ing. "I'm lost In it, honestly. I'd gladly exchange. I won't mind the poker players. I never go to bed before 2 In the morning, anyway." The purser stared at him. "You have Suite A A. alone? That's the best suite on board." he 6aiL "The royal suite." The woman lifted her veil and smiled at Dirk. "You are very kind," she said. "But I don't really deserve a royal suite" For the first time Dirk saw her face clearly. It was the most In telligeni face be had ever seen. It was the actress married and no-married no-married and unhappily married again, Nora Lane. "I'm Nora Lane," she said, sim ply. "1 tried to keep my room number a secret, but It was no use.

She put on her best bib and tucker, which was Hhe slinky evening eve-ning gown she had actually fought over, torn out of the hands of a smartly-dressed girl at a Tuesday morning sale, price $4.98. Then she made herself up In a way that would ,nut Myrna Loy to shame. She got our her dancing pumps, flung a borrowed cape over her shoulders and went upstairs to dance. She was almost breathless when she passed through the Venetian Room on the way to the dancing floor. She didn't know who she was going to dance with, and she didn't care. No mere good-looking boy like Dirk Strom was going to make her unhappy. Before she was half way across the room, filled with people in evening eve-ning clothes, she realized what a sensation she caused. Her face was a little flushed with determination, and it was this extra fire in her which made her the cynosure of all eyes. Her eyes fell on the table where sat the small dancer. Linda Bayes and her partner. Ken Martin. They j were toying with drinks before their time to go on as entertainers. Jane saw another man at the I table, a dark, exceedingly handsome hand-some young man whose head was crowned with black curly hair. In that same flash she saw him touch Linda's hand under the table, and .motion with his head toward her. j Linda looked around at Ken. a bit nervously, and then bowed to Jane, following it up with a beckon- I ing nod. Jane walked toward them j uncertainly, wondering If 6he was doing the right thing. j "This Is Tino Rossi." she heard Linda saying, as through a fog. "You may have beard him on the . radio. Or at the opera. He's the ! one and only famous baritone." she concluded with a little flourish.

"Yes," even as her eyes caught those of Dirk Strom, who sat across the room at a table with the detective. Her bead went up with a soaring gesture of bravado. bra-vado.
