FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15 , 1926 Christopher Columbus set out to prove that the world was round. The , practical result of his voyage of dls- 1 covery was to be a shorter route to the riches of India. Incidentally he t bumped agaist the shores of an uu- J known continent and discovered Am- erica which had likewise been discov- . ored some 500 years previous by the Norsemen . We honor the name of Columbus not , merely because he proved his conten- , tion that the world was round , but be- ! cause Columbus was undoubtedly one , ' of the greatest men of his era . ! A. voyage ot adventure in the year 1 , -: 000 is not quite the same thing as a I voyage of discovery in the year 1492, Columbus proved he was right in the face >>f tremendous opposition , stupen- dous reversals and upsparing ridicule . [ He displayed that which is rare in any , a« e or man , namely, resolute purpose ! and a skillfu l control of oppor tunity. No other navi gator of his time had , his daring vision and his courage to 1 hold to it . I Columbus Re ts the prize of world- acclaim because he dared to do what [ others only dared to think . He was a ' dreamer and a man of action . He set sail with a superstitious , mu tineering, crew . He was not lucky. His trl- j um ph was not a matter of chance. He was a man of one idea—tha t the earth ' wa s round and by sailing west one could reac h the east. ' This revolutionary idea made him , enemies everywhere . His rivals took) his i ' iirts and secre tly tried out his ] tin iries . but lost their nerve and came ) l' „. k a sc. 'ifi ;i t him.

WA^ibi ^ t^.: ¦:> ' ,: ' v\. , V The Prophet of 1492 Great Day* Ahead Those who seek the easy existence of perpetual summer are welcome thereto . For others the physical lux- ury and mental lethargy of lazy days and lotus eating are nothing compared with the pleasures , anticipations and vigor derived from the Infinite variety ot the temperate zone , where weather is weather , not climate , and nature in the course of a year can play her entire repertoire. There are roma nce and an intang- ible solace for tbe \bigger than weath- er \ in gray days and frosty nights and the human frame seems to take new- strength and life from the beating snow and biting cold. Man ' s spirit flourishes on combat and resistance. It is the long winter ni ght that puts iron hack into northern souls and re- scues them from the a ppalling possi- bilities of eternal summer . It is only during his periods of indol- ence that the dweller in the temp erate zone sighs for the year of a single sea- son and dreads the approach of the ar gent frost, the bleak winds of wint- er , the drifting snow aud the ice-cov- ered rivers and bays. But when the first blast of winter straightens his shoulders, seuds the warm blood cours- ing through his body and quickens his pace, memories of the summer -sun vanish before anticipations of snug overcoats , blazin g hearths, sound slumber uuder cozy comforts , roast turkey, pum pkin pies, whole evenin g s for readin g nr repose and complete contentment . Fuel bills and shorta ges , an ti freeze concoctions, snow-covered walks, stal l - ed automobiles ami uncertain condi- tions overhead and underfoot are sure - ly m ore than compensated for by the many blessin gs tile tempei a' e /. one hold- : ' or its children. no: ' -• p el mil scenic attractions to ; make him neglec tful of the fundament- j aU .it handlin g a car with safety , lu th e second place an unsuspected dang- : e.r for the novii -e at least is \leaf skid- j ding, \ particularly in the early morn- • inir before the sun has bad a chance to dr y out the dew or frost that is held by -he leaves tliat strew the roadways.

In the meantime it Is in- erestlng to refe r to the more Intimate ietall of representation . It Is one thing to repr esent a party u quest ot office , but it ts another hlng to forget party lines In reuder- rrg service to a community. Congress- nan Bacon serves all the people . His lervice In Washington is given to ?veryone of his constituency without bought of race, creed , color or politic- il affiliation. In the three sessions of Congress lie has attended in his two terms and luring his time devoted to his duties in Washington, he has received eith- er by pe rsonal or wri tten applications , re quests for service in a variety of na- ures from more than 15,000 persons. He has at tended ^o every request. The importance of this work ts apparent . His index card system is complete in iiarullin g all such matters. Nor is the word final written into this index un- til the request has been satisfactorily comple ted. This sin gle instance of service forms a gigantic enterprise. Many widows and families of veterans write in re- gard to pensions: others on matters of Federal income tax: others again in re gard to Naval and military matters and on a thousand ami one things that concern them. Kach r equest requires inves tigation and follow up inquiries , and conse quently takes time anil often personal attention. When this U nril- ' .iplied by over 15 . ww i t can be readily seeu that Con gressman Bacon has truly placed himself at the disposal of his people withou t a thought to any- thin g but the opportunity to serve. That fac t cannot be too greatly accent- ua ted. He represents all of the people. He is theirs to command. \Thi s service is ideed an interesting one . \ says Congressman Bacon, on the subjec t. \Every letter or personal a ppeal receives prompt attention and every effor t is made, no matter what the re quest, to put it through success- fully . My purpose solely is to render service to all and the personal ele- ment never is permi tted to enter. Th ere is considerable pleasure deriv- ed in the fulfillment of a reques t and I mus t say that everyone writing to me has some rea s onable desire . \ C ongressman Bacon is serving on he Immi gration and Naturalization •ommittee: the commit tee on Insular Affairs the committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries , and other com- lii ttees dealing with the radio situ- liinn . the census, libraries aud educa- ion . etc. The importance of his coni- nitt ee work reflects the high regard n which he is held by Con gress. Som\ >f the most important ma ilers dealing wi th our Nation ' s resources and dip , - lOmati c relations wtih foreign cie , v rie s are entrusted to Conu' i' ,\* , aI | [{a eon.

Inc.) One of ' tiie beautiful things is de- vo f'°<\ * of parents to children. Parents may scold , and whip, and fuss around , but ore really devoted t o their chil- dren ; really make great sacrifices for them; really desire thnt they be edu- cated, well-behaved , nnd succeed in life. . . . But often parents are devoted to children , and do them harm rather than g ood. . . . There- fore a word to parents : lluke your devotion to children effective . The manager of a family lias us Important a Job as the Kimm ger of u railroad ; the J ob calls n ot only for devotion , but for effectiveness. Nine-tenths of conversation , writ- ing. Is criticism , und most of It un- miMonahle : only indul ged in for the pleasure of being abusive. In most cases criticism is meanness tbe critic should lie a shamed of. A mini better than th e average Is mure rtinrltuble thun Ihe mini below It. \\ bin we call civilization Is only rules men luive tiled many centuries , and generally nd oju liei-mise they work b est. Any fool miiy say civiliza- tion has faul t s , and p oint them out , but generally It Is the best we can do. To Ilnd fault with what we call \The System '' is maklii i ! fun of your- self und others . . . . How con- temptible my ufViilrs, and yours ; but I should like t o see either of us live by a different plan. The old fell ows occupying the graves have done much for us; be careful of new plans recom - mended by young chaps still walking about , and talking too much. Few of us are willing It , steal open- ly, but we are all willing to be open- ly unfair uud untruthful. Riches usually sober men , and cause them to realize their responsibility; but riches spoil women. Han Is the queerest nf animals. A rabbit , on light of n dog, always runs , but many men , mi sight of the devil , rush Into his arms. \All truths , \ writes a mighty man In literature , \begun as blasphemies. \ It ts aa silly and liifniuuiw u thing •¦ was ever prim ed . Materialism Is lieinonstriiled truth. Spirituality Is the argum ent on the other side, Handicap * are not so numerous ai opportunities . HOWE AEGUT— .

Wo nro particularly jratnful to the C.H.P.H. I.odae. Mm , Albert llri tbii h uud childran. BIRTHS Dr. H. P. Ravenel , professor of pre- ventive medicine at the University of Missouri , tells his profession that it has made auch strides in the preven- tion of i nfant mortal ity that the -world need never fear the coming of a race of super-men. The physically feeble and mentally unlit , he says, used once to die ot child diseases fro m which the doctors now save them . As a re- sult the race will continue to be curs- ed by incompetents , life-long invalids , and morons . Their number is increas- ing. That suggests , by contrast, tbe old theory that medical attentio n to the sick was an insult to the Creat or , who was supposed to be able to render the pro per decisions as to who should liv.? and who should die . without interfer- ence by human bein pts. The trouble with that theory was that It took no account of the fact that the power that placed in the mind of man the will to live must have int ended him to use it. for himself ami on behalf of others. But the savinn of lives of sickly in- fants raises the c ommon-sense prob- lem a .s to whether scientists with the ability to re gulat e the reproductive powers of those whos e lives they save are justified in exor cisms one power as well as the other . We confine the mentally incom peten t, without a single doubt as to our ri ght to thus protect ourselves and our families: but our ri itht to benefit them as well as our- selves by perman ently removin g their power to perpetuate their kind is ques- tioned by the majority of mankind. The objection to the exercise of such power ts the abuse to which It would lead. No man is wise enough to decide who shall be the parents of the generation to come, say the enemies of this form of birth-control. When men are wise enough and good enough to be trusted with the destinies of the unborn . It will be time enough to con- sider such matters , and—incidentally —the necessity for considering them will not exist. In the meantime, let nature take care of the problem of the su perman. Continue to imprison and confine the unfit , say the majority of doctors. Do not take .their lives . It is the doc- tor ' s function to save—he is not wise enough to be permitted to destroy. Will our \let alone \ policy All the world with unfit? Probably not. If there is any truth to the doctrine of the survival of the fittest, nature will take care ot the problem better than man will ever be able to do It . The theory that man ought not to destroy life until he is able scientifically to create it , is sensible and logical . But, considered as a personal matter , the obligation of a maa to brin g into the world only children who are strong, mentally well equipped , and free from disease, is the most bindin g of his debts to society. That is ac- complished by ri ght living; during the entire period from birth to parenthood . And one who lives decently as long as that will get the habit. Read The News Ads-Save Time and Money
