Pilkington, has grown tired of the official language of daily weather bulletins issued from headquarters, and has institut ed a new departure which, while pleasing the populace of the dis trict, does not exactly meet with of ficial approval. Miss Pilkington favors an up-to-date style in fore casting the weather, one of he latest reading: “Temperature: There is an acute shortage of therms in the district. Winds: Still of an oriental charac ter. Pressure: A steady, reliable worker. Local trend: Overflows with happiness. Inference: We are qualifying for the final of tho weather championship.” Another was worded: “Tempera ture: Eyerv day in every way it grows warmer and warmer. Infer ence: All the weather factors are decked out in their finest garb. The spectre at the feast is too shadowy to worry us.” NATIONAL RELIGIONS FIGHT THREATENS IN CONGRESSIONAL HOLDS (Continued From Pact- One) ■tie of “church and state.” He charges that the former is getting increasingly officious in the latter’s affairs. He aims to put an end to it, if he can. Whether an out-and-out anti evolution bill will be introduced in congress, however, seems rather doubtful. It was announced that Congressman William D. Upshaw of Georgia would introduce one, but later he changed bis mind, saying he rather thought it was a matter for the states to settle for them selves. Upshaw speaks proudly of hav ing been described as inspired by the same spirit which used to burn witches. If the fundamentalists can’t get him to sponsor their bill, it’s hard to think of anybody they can.

The French, in particular, say, “We know there’s no mistake about it, for here are the phony bills, turning up right along.” "How do you know they’re phony if they deceive even ex perts?” is the natural query. “Well, all but the very best ex perts,” insist the French. It isn’t impossible the secret .service is keeping a sharp eye out for the appearance of any suspi cious-looking paper on this side of the water, too. Its operatives wouldn’t say so, if they were. They eschew brass bands. It's to be borne in mind that counterfeiting by a big government —assuming, for the sake of argu ment, that it's being done—is a mighty different proposition to handle from the same thing by an irresponsible little band of private crooks. Private counterfeiters must work secretly and in haste. Their fa cilities are primitive. They can't get plates, paper and ink in quan tities for operation on a large, pay ing scale. Their product neces sarily is crude; their output small. Skilled engravers, printers, chem ists and pressmen, running a big, wfell-equipped plant for a strong government, or under its protec tion and with its encouragement. are very differently situated.
