Fretful ness and fever, too; it seems no time jmtil everything is serene. That’s the beauty of Castoria; its gentle influence seems just what is needed. It does all that castor oil might accomplish, without shock to the system. Without the evil taste It’s delicious! Being purely vegeta able, you can give it as often as there’s a sign of colic; constipation; diarrhea; or need to aid sound, nat ural sleep. Just one warning: it is genuine Fletcher’s Castoria that physicians recommend. Other preparations may be just as free from all doubtful drugs, but no child of this writer’s is going' to test them! Besides, the book on care and feeding of babies that comes with Fletcher’s Castoria is worth its Weight in gold. Children Cry for London to Be Floodproof London’s great “anti-flood” scheme Is nearing completion after nearly seven years’ work. Parts of it have been finished and are credited with having saved the city from a possible deluge during the big storms of last summer. The scheme includes storm relief sewers, with pumping stations fitted with powerful machinery at dan ger points. When it is completed, ex perts say, London will be practically floodproof.

NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENTEVENTS President Goes to Cuba and American Marines Bomb Nicaraguans. By EDWARD W. PICKARD PRESIDENT COOLIDGE left Wash ington Friday by train for Key West, Fla., where he bearded the bat tleship Texas and steamed across to Havana, Cuba, thus leaving the United States for the first time in his incum bency of the Presidential office. With him were Mrs. Coolidge and the dis ilmguished gentlemen comprising the American delegation to the Pan- American congress. It was to partici pate in the opening of that assem- Mage that Mr. Coolidge made the journey, and his stay on the island was to be brief. There were unmistakable signs that the leadership of the United States in the affairs of the continent was to be ; contested by the delegations of some ! of the Latin American nations, this ' being precipitated by resentment against American intervention in Nie : aragua. In order that the President 1 and hts delegation might not be em barrassed by criticism at home, the senate committee on foreign relations decided to postpone its investigation 1 of the Nicaraguan situation until as ; ter his return. Such an inquiry was called for by a resolution Introduced by Senator Wheeler of Montana and a majority of the committee seemed to favor it but deferred action for the reason stated. Protests against our course in Nicaragua have been rather frequent, the latest being in the form of a cablegram to President Coolidge from the editors of papers in Bogota, Colombia. Meanwhile American marines num bering 1,000 were being hurried down I to Nicaragua from both the Atlantic | and the Pacific stations and General Lejeune, commander of the corps, also went down there to look over the sit uation. The announced intention to break up the rebel band led by Gen eral Sandino and give the country complete peace has not been altered. The bandits, who are said to be trained by a former German officer named Muller, are active and enter prising and have made several at tempts to ambush detachments of ma rines. In one Instance, at Somotillo, a number of native troops deserted their allies and helped the rebels in an attack on a patrol commanded by Capt. Paul W. Payne of the marines. Outnumbered, Payne retreated to Villa Nueva, obtained reinforcements and returned to Somotilla, but was again driven off. A larger body of troops was rushed there from Chinan dega, but the bandits and deserters had fled to the mountains. Lieut. F. C. Schilt, marine aviator, discovered about 200 bandits lying in ambush awaiting a column of marines which was marching from Quilali to Jlcaro. With bombs and machine gun the lieutenant put the band to rout, killing fourteen and wounding others. Bombs dropped from another marine plane north of Quilali killed nine rebels, breaking up a concentration. SENATOR DAVID A. REED’S com mittee that has been Investigating the alleged Mexican documents that were published in the Hearst papers made a partial report in which were these findings: 1. There is not a scintilla of evi dence that any Unitefl States senator has accepted, or was promised, or was offered, directly or Indirectly, any Money or other valuable thing, by any officer or representative of the gov emm&t of Mexico. 1 The pretended document show ing that $1,215,000 wae withdrawn from the Mexican treasury and sent to the Mexican consul general in New York to be paid to United States sen ators, is not genuine, but Is spurious and fraudulent, and, in so far as It purports to be signed by the Presi dent of Mexico or the secretary of the treasury of Mexico, It is forged. The committee said it had not yet been able to determine the identity of the manufacturer of the spurious doc uments. Senator Reed told the sen- THE BULLETIN, IRWINTON, GEORGIA. ate he believed Miguel Avila, who ob tained the papers for Hearst, and John Page, who acted for the publish er, had testified falsely, and he criti cized Hearst severely. pOLONEL LINDBERGH’S success ' ful flights are becoming almost monotonous, and some one has said that if he did not land safely some where, that w-ould be news. However, his tour still makes interesting read ing and the Latin-Amerlcans do not weary of receiving him tumultuously and heaping honors upon him. Monday of last week the lone eagle dropped down on the flying field at Panama that was built and named for him, af ter a four hours’ fight from Costa Rica. The huge crowd almost mobbed him, and President Chiari received him warmly. For two days there were fetes, banquets, reviews and other functions, and Lindbergh took President Chiari and Vice President Duque up in an army observation plane. Then the flyer had several days, busy but more restful, in the Canal Zone. He announced that he would fly to Venezuela next, alight ing at the army air field near Mara cay, where President Gomez lives. Then he planned to proceed to St. Thomas, one of the Virgin islands, next to San Juan, Porto Rico, where there is an excellent army field; thence to Santo Domingo, where there also is a good marine-constructed field; then to Port au Prince, Haiti, which has the best field in the Carib bean, and then to Havana. pROBABLY Pope Pius XI will be * known in history as the author of the encyclical rejecting movements favoring the unity of the Christian churches regardless of form or creed. It was declared in Rome to be the most important Vatican document is sued since the World war, and there can be no doubt that its effect will be great and widespread. It was con sidered specifically as a rejection of the efforts of the Anglo-Catholics of the Church of England to bring about an entente with the Catholic church, but its terms are general. The pope declares the sole religion was revealed to the Catholic church, which has maintained itself one and identical throughout the centuries. Os religious • conferences and con gresses for unity to which all are in vited the encyclical says: “Such at tempts cannot obtain the approval of Catholics. These movements are founded on the false theory presup posing that all religions are good and meritorious; therefore all, although in a different way. manifest and sig nify equally that sentiment, inborn in us, to be carried to God for reverent recognition of His dominion. “Followers of such a theory not alone deceive and err. but repudiate true religion,, distorting concepts, tending little by ^little to naturalism and atheism, whence clearly those ad hering to such theories detach them selves from the religion revealed by God. Under the appearance of good they more easily hide deception when they try to promote the unity of al! Christians.” SECRETARY OF THE NAVY WIL BUR and Admiral Hughes, chief of naval operations, appearing before the house naval affairs committee in behalf of the new $725,000,000 con struction program, told the congress men flatly that the American fleet is now inadequate to the defense of the country. They asserted that the building of 72 vessels, including cruis ers, submarines, destroyer leaders and aircraft carriers, would fulfill the sea defense needs of the United States. While denying that the program can be considered as placing the United States in competition with oth er nations, Secretary Wilbur admitted that in working out American needs the size of other navies was taken into consideration. He said the pro gram would put the United States well within the 5-5-3 ratio as far as Britain is concerned and slightly above the ratio with Japan. Admiral Hughes said the comple tion of the program would give the country “reasonable security,” but would not give the United States com mand of the sea. Surprisingly, the Democratic national committee tn session tn Washington selected Houston, Texas, for the national convention and set the opening date for June 20. The contest was between Houston nnd San Francisco and the fifth and de ciding ballot was 54 to 48 in favor of tlie Texas city. Houston offered $200,- 000 for the convention and promised to build a new hall If the city audi torium, which seats 5.000. were con sidered too small. The place has hotel accommodations for 10.000 to 12,1X10 persons. The Jackson day banquet was at tended by most of the party leaders and harmony prevailed, at least on the surface. Gov. Al Smith of New York was not present, hut a letter from him was read and evoked long and loud applause. To observers in Washington it begins to look as if Smith might get the Democratic nom ination almost without a contest. On the Republican side it was an nounced that Frank O. Lowden would enter the North Dakota Presidential primaries to be held March 20. the first to be held in the Middle West. .In the East the Hoover boom was growing steadily and his cause was helped by the fact that Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford both declared for him. Senator Jim Watson of In diana said he had not yet decided whether to be a contender, but that if he entered the race It would be in earnest and not as a stalking horse. D EORQANIZATION of the Chicago, I'- Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad having been approved by the inter state commerce commission. Federal Judge Wilkerson in Chicago issued orders for the receiver to transfer the company to the new organization, and at midnight Sunday the old com pany passed out of existence, its place being taken by the Chicago, Milwau kee, St. Paul & Pacific railroad. Henry A. Scandrett of Omaha is pres ident and H. E. Byram, former presi dent, becomes chairman of the board of directors. The reorganization was carried through by Kuhn, Loeb & Co. During the receivership of near ly three years the property has stead ily improved, according to Mr. Byram. O EPLYING to Secretary Kellogg’s suggestion of a multilateral treaty renouncing war, the French government proposes that the ban shall be restricted to “aggressive war.” This is not agreeable to our government and in a second note Mr. Kellogg shows it clings to its original stand that the treaty's declaration be against war without any qualifying or modifying definition attached, and also that 4>ther world powers be asked to unite in signing it. The new turn in the discussion is not considered by the State department to bar the way to ultimate negotiation of a treaty between France and America, and ul timately with all powers, declaring against war as a weapon in interna tional relations. 'T'HOMAS HARDY, dean of English literature and the last of the great Victorian writers, died Wednes day at Ids home near Dorchester at the age of eighty-seven, after a month’s illness. Os late years the fa mous novelist of Wessex had devoted himself to writing poetry, but wheth er any of these poems will be put into print is doubtful. Among other deaths of the week were those of Louis F.

They have been garnering golf balls from the golf course at the park.' To prove this, some golfers placed a number of slightly soiled balls on a fairway and then hid behind a clump of bushes. Sure enough, a few moments later a number of squirrels darted out into the open and dashed away, leaving not a single ball.
