I often wonder if you work for j me or I for you. Sometimes I think j this is a partnership between a mule i and a fool. For surely I work harder i than you do. Plowing here we cover the same distance, but you do it on four legs and I on two. So, mathe matically speaking, I do twice as much work per leg as you do. "Soon we'll be preparing for a corn crop. When the crop is harvested, I give one-third to the landlord for being kind cno-jgh to let me use this corner of God's universe. Tiie other third 'goes to yru, and what is left is my share. But whila you consume all your third with tlvj exception of a few cobs, I divide my third among seven children, six hens, two ducks and a banker.

The European leader movement said Dr. Pierard, is at the forefront Gf the movement to do away with excessive armaments. "Speaking for the labor move ment in my own country, he said "we are co-operating with Germans as well as with the French and Brit ish and other spokesmen, for the masses, to free Europe from the blighting horrors of war. We, in Belgium, know only too well what these are. We are not sure if our civilization could stand another such slaughter." SOLID SOUTH A MISNOMER Boston. Sept. 4. United States Senator George H. Moses of New Hampshire, in charge of the Hoover campaign in the east declared today that the republican nominee was "fairly certain off carrying North Carolina and the border states and of giving the democrats such a scare for the future that the term solid south will pass into the realm of the obsolete." Senator Moses stopped here while en route to New York long enough to confer with Fred N. Peck, national committeeman for Massachusetts. While the senator expressed himself as reasonably well satisfied with con ditions in New England, he warned republican leaders here that they could not afford to relax when faced by an opponent of the resourceful ness of Governor Smith.
