The annua!. grain hnrvest has started in the farming area around Twin Falls, Filer, Buhl, Custlofrird, Hagerman, Good-lu- g and Wendell, with threshing outfits under way. All barley is ripe and wheat has ripened fast President Roosevelt, who hopes that 6,000,000 men will return to work soon after Labor Day, organizes a drive for more jobs, better pay, shorter hours, something like the war drive for selling bonds to get money for nations cutting each other's throats in Europe. If Americans show half as much willingness to finance prosperity at home as they showed in financing Wholesale murder abroad, the President's plans will go through. If they do not show "willingness" the President may find some other way of getting results. He knows that the people want something done and will support his efforts. Geologists gathered in Washington give all sorts of interesting information, and incidentally reassure you, if you are worried by gentlemen occasionally announcing the end of the world. The sun, according to Dr. Lane, while using up its mass at the rate of 3,700,000 tons per second, is so big of the tothat "only tal will be used up in ten million years." Many things should be accomplished in that length of time, consid- ering that all human history about which we really know anything, goes back less than 10,000 years, or a part of the time that lies immediately ahead of us. In Greenland Eskimos come trekking great distances to see Colonel Lindbergh and his wife, who are making air maps of a northern route to Europe. The Eskimos, with their wives, sit by the hour and gaze at the plane after it has come to earth, then go back to tell about it, and are not believed. It Is probably compared in size with a wild goose, biggest bird in Greenland, and roaring with the noise that a goose makes. That the plane is a living being, carrying human beings around, the Eskimos probably do not doubt. years ago the Frenchman Louis Bleriot, flew across the English channel, startling the world and the British especially. When that happened, after Lord Northcliffe, owner of the London Daily Mail, had offered 10,000 pounds' reward for such a flight, England's greatest defense became meaningless. Napoleon sat on the edge of the channel waiting for the wind to change, but never crossed. Now any boy can fly from the continent, land in England, and If undeterred, drop what he pleases on any city. Northcliffe, by the way, told the writer that having offered the 10,000 pounds' reward, he got "Lloyds" to Insure him for a trifle against paying, and Lloyds' paid the 10,000 pounds to Twenty-fou- r Bleriot Real flying began when Orville Wright flew, with a heavier than air plane, 120 feet Then Bleriot flew across the channel, then Lindbergh flew the Atlantic to Paris. Now Wiley Post, in a little more than seven days, flys around the world, the Italian air admiral, Balbo, is flyin, home on the return trip to Italy, with his fleet of airships in perfect formation. When progress starts it moves rapidly. Teachers of dancing are told by Arthur Murray, who knows, that the public has wasted more than $1,000.-00learning dance steps that it never can use, because nobody knows how to dance them or wants to know how. Dancing is old, much older than men on this earth. Jungle fowl danced to please their females; the heavy elephant has a sort of courtship dance, it Is said. Primitive men did war dances, stamping their feet, using up as much physioal energy as possible, and religious dances, as when David danced before the Ark, developed steps do longer remembered. Dancing is born in the brain to represent certain emotions, also born there. It Is hard to create any really new dance that Is not hopelessly artificial 0 General Balbo's flight with twenty-fouplanes from Italy to Chicago and New York shows that Italy understands flying machines. And now Nicaragua has made a contract with an Italian company to provide air mall and air passenger service to every Nicaraguan flying r field. Some American company seems to have missed an opportunity. We decided to go off the gold basis and went off, and the world said: "Their dollar Is not as good as It used to be." The dollar fell in exchange value. Prices went up. The cost of living In creased and there were no more dollars In circulation than there has been before we left the gold basis. Perhaps some way will be found to make dollars more plentiful, enabling those, that want to do business to borrow. A cheap dollar, with dollars sllll hard to get. is not Ideal. However, after enduring more than three years of depression, the people must not be too pressing In their demand for recovery. You cannot change the system on which a nation has done its money, hours, business, wag!s, prices, everything, in a few weeks. reg-ilat- I.I9S. bt Kirn Ftitura SvnJu.t.. Lk.)

Why we couldent even find out if Babe Ruth had hit a home run, or struck out. Even Mr BEVERLY HILLS. just what I read in the papers. Roosevelt and half his Cabinet had to go on the air in order to get over a little message they had for the forest builders. The pa pers dident have room to use their statements. We had just got rid of one Hutton out of the news (the one that pensioned off the Atlanta Georgian Prince) when along comes Dave Hutton. He had been a kind of a man about town, in a local way, only in a larger way. He was the first religious crooner. (Yes they are getting em in churches now.) Now all this might not hit you all over like it did us out here. Being so far away, we are naturally dependent on news from our local source, and when Sister Aimee breaks out, all communication with the outside world Is null and void during the time of her escapade. Now I like it and I read it, for she is a very remarkable woman, and does much good. But I do so hate to be without my news of the outside world. There should be a way of importing some outside paper to come into Los Angele3 during one, or each of these McPherson campaigns, and they could give us the other news, just for the duration of her sworray. Then it could fold up and wait a little'while, and then stand by and be ready. But Its kinder quieting down now and a little stuff is drifting in from the outside world. I wrote a little gag about the market about ten day ago, for it seemed to be the general impression that it was full of hop and was going far beyond its legitimate stride. It was running on opiates. Well the very day my little gag broke out, why the mar- ket tumbled, and Roosevelt did say that he was going to keep an eye on it. Well I sure did get a lucky break with that prediction, for if I had pulled it a day later it wouldent have been any good. But you could just see and feel it coming. Everybody cant make a living gambling. Some can but there must always be money made in some other business and brought into the game to keep it going. Well Wall Street was getting ahead of their money supply. You see thats one thing about the Democrats that make em different from the Republicans. This fellow Roosevelt has got the nerve to defy those fellows if he thinks Its for the good of all. Now with a Republican there is Just something about his makeup, that the richer the man, the less he should be watched, the bigger the industry the wider open it should run. Its just against their principles to stop a guy from making a big killing, even if he is robbing a bank. They claim you are "Hamstringing big business." in all these This Sales Tax is states. We got a load of it the other day, 3 percent. That about takes the cake. Most states vote one percent, one and a half, or at most two but we saw em all that and raised em a couple. I guess its the least objectionable of taxes, if there is such a thing. I think Mississippi was the starter of It It pulled them out In good shape. The poor old London Conference, they are dragging it along, "America failed to do what we wanted em too, so the whole thing failed." Every one of these guys come over here before the thing started, and all left with a lot of magnified hooey about what theConference held in store for the World. Well in any legitimate business in the World if you met and talked with all your customers, or all your clients, or all your neighbors "Equal play opportunity for every child." This Is the slogan for National Children's day, observed generally by American cities to focus public attention on the need for increased play facilities as an antidote for Juvenile delinquency and a necessity of normal child development. "The difference between mischievous little troublemakers and bright, alert 'good' children is largely up to ns parents." said Mrs. Edith London Boehm, president of the Child Play association, sponsors of this movement. "The children of every age group need tools for constructive play. They must learn by doing. When Johnny, whose father hasn't a job, begs Santa Claus for a train, building blocks or a wagon, he is expressing an everyday need for constructive play that is as vital to his development as bread and shelter. And so is Jane who prays for a doll to dress, a ball or a drawing board. "Play, contrary to adult standards, Is the serious business of childhood. The most enthralling ns well as the most educational toys are those that permit children to Imitate tasks that adults consider drudgery. "For example, miniature mops, scrubbing brushes, brooms, washing boards, irons, etc., that give children a chance to do a real cleaning job in their doll house or play room are favorite and inexpensive playthings. Dressing a doll can teach a little girl neatness and cleanliness and color appreciation as well as mother love. "For physical development give the children kiddie cars, velocipedes, scooters, i oiler skates, sidewalk biwagons, cycles, swings, etc. These playthings keep them interested and active in the healthful outdoor air."
