Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Here I
come again for a little chat, but first. I
want to thank Aunt Julia for printing my
other letter. She is a perfect, dear. I
would like • meet her face to face. Well,
I wonder what every one is doing these hot
days. I am cooking, reading, sewing and
helping my sister can, and have been go
ing to protracted meeting. Third Sunday
in September we will have Brother Dan Mc-
Alpin with ns to begin his meeting for a
week. He surely is a good preacher, really
the best Baptist I ever heard preach. We
have called him to serve us next year. 1
think lie is one of the best men 1 ever met.
and lie has one of the sweetest wives. I
suppose most of you cousins have already
taken your vacation, but poor me, I have
missed one this summer, but I had a fine
trip last fall up to Chicago, 111. I was up
there two months. I enjoyed looking at
the scenery through the different states.
I went through Birmingham, Ala. Os course
that seems like home as 1 lived there for
seven years, and I wont titrough Tennessee
and part of Mississippi and Kentucky. Chi
cago is some city, and I met some fine peo
ple while I was there, and some that were
awfully rough, but oh, how cold that wind
was off Lake Michigan. I saw some sights
while there, but the most beautiful thing
was one night they gave a free show
through the conservatory and really’ there
was the most beautiful flowers I ever say,
and on Sunday before my departure, I went
over on Lake Michigan to the Field muse
um, and there I saw lots of tilings. I saw
a piece of wood that was carried before
Christ. It was carved in the image of a
frog, and most all kinds of animals and all
kinds of curious arts. At last the. weather
got so cold I decided I would come back
south. Naturally I like the Sunny South.
There, Mrs. Mary Shipes, why dojn’t yon
write me and tell me all about yourself,
and how are you, Mrs. Cora Johnston, hope
you had a nice time on your trip out in
Texas, ‘write and tell me about it. Listen,
cousins, I promised all an answer that
would write tne, but really I could not an
swer all for I never dreamed of receiving
so many letters and they still continue
coming. It is almost impossible to answer
them all. Anyway, they were all appre
ciated, and please take this for an answer.
Mr. George Barnes, how ai<> you and your
flowers? Hew about sending me a bou
quet? I know yon will. I certainly haw.!
enjoyed my stay with yon dear folks and
may the Angel of Peace, Prosperity and
Happiness ever guide your footsteps. I
am lovingly an old cousin.
(MRS.) NETTIE NEVILLE.
Cypress, Fla., Route 1, Box 4S.
Dear Aunt Julia: After many tinsncces*.’-
ful attempts, I will again try to get by the
wastebasket. I am fourteen years old and
live on a farm. 1 go to school at Pinson,
and will study the tenth grade. As some
of the cousins take subjects, my subject is
"lite Bible." The Bible is Ilie oldest sur
viving moitument of the springtime of the
human intellect. It reveals to tis the char
acfer and intellect of our great Creator and
final Judge. It opens before ns the way of
salvation through a Redeemer, unveils to
our view the invisible world, and shows ns
the final destiny of our race. God's word is
in fact, much like God's world -varied, very
rich, very beautiful. You never know - when
you have exhausted all its merits. Tn->
Bible, like nature, has something for everv
class of mind. Look at the Bible in a new
light, and straightway yon see some now
charm. The Bible goes equally to the cot
tage of die poor man and to the palace of
t.lte king. It is woven into literature, and
it. colors the talk of the street. The Bible
is adapted to every possible variety of taste,
temperament, culture and condition. It has
strong reasoning for the Intellectual. it
takes the calm and contemplative to the
well balanced James, and the affectionate
to tlte loving and beloved John. Niz only is
this book precious to the poor •-« unlearned;
not only is this the consoler of the great
middle class of society, both spiritually" an,)
mentally speaking, but. the scholar and the
sage, the intellectual and monarch of the
age, bow to its authority. There is no book
so well adapted to improve the head and
the art as the Bible. Other books be
speak their own age; the Biide was made
for all ages. Uninspired authors speculate
Upon truths before made known, and often
upon delusive Imaginations; the Bible r»-
veals truths before unknown and otherwise
unknowable. H is distinguished for its ex
act and universal truth: time and criticism
only illustrate and confirm its pages. Suc
cessive ages reveal nothing to change tlte
Bibles representations of human nature.
Passing events fulfill prophecies, but fail Io
impeach its allegations. The Scriptures
leach us the best way of living, the noblest
way of suffering and the most comfortable
wa.y of dying. A mind rightly disposed will
easily discover the image of God's wisdom
in the depths, of its mysteries. The image
of God's sovereignty in Hie commanding
majesty < f its style; the image of His unity
in the wonderful t.endency of the whole to
the welfare of mankind in both worlds. We
have tried paganism; we have tried Moham
medanism; we have tried deism and philos
ophy, and we cannot look upon them even
with respect. The Scriptures contain tlte
only system which Is left ns. If we give
up these we have no other to which we can
repair. Trusting I have not broken Aunt
Julia s rnlk'B, 1 will close, hoping to hear
from all the cousins. 1 am a new niece
and cousin,

me IO join your happy band of cheerful
cousins. I think that almost every boy or
girl would like to know the description of
the cousin to whom lie or she is writing, so
I will give a brief description of myself:
Black hair, fair complexion, freckle-faced,
gray eyes. Cousins, I nix a farmer's boy,
a lonely, but happy one. who loves fishing,
swimming and all other sport. How many
of you boys and girls do? All, 1 hope, for

in our dear old state, and 10 miles east of
Mt. Airy, one market plain. Cousins, don't
you think tlie country Just the grandest
plaec to read, write and play, fish, swim
and hunt and ride, b.it after all, it would
bo sweeter, better and grander if Aunt
Julia were here amongst us, to talk tn us
face to face, but anyway wo appreciate her
kindness as it is, don't we? Remember,
Aunt Julia. 1 am just trying to gel ac
quainted with some of your nieces and
cousins. Don't you just love to have very
affectionate friends? I will stop and try
some more, if this is pt inted. to get closer

life to live, but a soul to save. Do not
scoff at religion, cousins. This is my

BATTLE TO RETS IN
U. S. SENATE SEAT
RY DAVHJ LAWRENCE
(Special Leased Wire to The Journal—Copy
rixht, 1924.)
BI'TTE, Mont., Sept. 23.—Several
surprises are in store for the inves
tigator of things political in Mon
tana.
First, Senator Thomas Walsh,
Democrat of Teapot Dome fame, has
a hai'd fight for re-election.
Second, Senator Burton K. Wheel’
er. vice presidential nominee with La
Follette, hasn't created much of a
stir in his home state. His selection
on the third party ticket has caused
resentment among the Democrats,
because he deserted the party.
Third, President Coolidge has bet
ter than an even, chance to carry
this state by about 5,000 to 10,000
plurality.
Just -why should a man like Sena
tor Walsh have a hard time win
ning re-election? This question is a
natural one, and oven Montana vet
erans in politics cannot explain it.
The Ku Klux Klan, which is active,
is of course fighting Mr. Walsh.
Among his own followers are some
who think he should have assailed
the klan at the Madison Square Gar
den convention, but the thing that
made Senator Walsh famous this
year—the Teapot Dome disclosure —
doesn't seem to be talked about. Sen
ator Wheeler’s connection with the
investigation of Attorney General
Daugherty really excited more atten
tion at the time.
Farm Situation improves
Montana finds herself with an im
proved agricultural situation, which
means votes for Coolidge. After a
drought of several years, Montana
will produce this year 50.000.000
bushels of wheat, and the farmers
will have for sale actual farm prod
ucts, exclusive of their own feeding
and seeding operations, which may
net them about $100,000,000. The
yield in the Billings sugar beet dis
trict, for instance, is exceptional.
The bean crop is phenomenal, while
in most sections of the state the
yield of hay, oats and barley is very
good.
So, after years of depression, Mon
tana has been lifted to an atmos
phere of hope and confidence once
more. lender such circumstances
there is no great desire for a. change.
The political situation, of course, is
different.
The opposition to the re-election of
Governor Joseph Dixon, Republican
is so intense that his defeat would
cause no surprise. The Democrats
are active in their state fight but the
national ticket seems somewhat neg
lected here. This Was McAdoo coun
try. The Democratic national organ
ization appears hardly to be function
ing with respect to Montana, nor
does it appear that the Democratic
national organization has even got
ten started as far as the entire
northwest is concerned. This year
of all years it was essential for the
national managers' to pay attention
to western Democracy, for most cf
the delegations from these states
came home disappointed that Mc-
Adoo wasn't nominated.
The McAdoo men are not sulking
but they cannot understand why tlte
national organization persists in ig
noring them and doesn't even ask
their aid.
Izooking to McAdoo
There may be a change when Wil
liam Gibbs McAdoo returns from
Europe for the west has a good dfeal
of faith in him, and if he gives the.
signal to his followers they will rise
to help the national ticket. It would
seem to be poor Democratic strategy
to ignore a faction so strong at the
Madison Square Garden convention.
But this is only one of a number of
things which indicate that the Dem
ocrats not only are poorly organized
this year, but that they do not seem
to have the money to wage an ef
fective campaign.
The Republicans have been busy
for several weeks. Their candidate
for United States senator against Mr.
Walsh, namely Frank Linderman,
never has been much of a factor in
noli,tics, but if the Coolidge tide should
run strong he may be swept in as
Senator Walsh is swept out.* It is
a close race for senator and a mixed
situation, too. Senator Wheeler, of
Montana, who has been one of Sena
tor Walsh's political supporters for
many years, has been lauded to the
skies by Mr. Walsh. The latter has
not yet hammered away at the La
Follette and Wheeler ticket, which
some of his friends think he must do
if he is to recover many Democratic
votes due to be east for La Foll Ate.
Senator Wheeler's political life in
Montana may be said to be ended.
He will never win in a Democratic
party again and the general impres
sion is that he has permanently cast
his fortunes with the radicals and
third party in America.
in Montana the radical vote has
usually been in the Democratic par
ty. The La Follette ticket would
have gotten the same big vote irre
spective of whether Wheeler had
been named. The third party will
take more from the .Democrats than
the Republicans in this state, which
is one of the reasons why the vic
tory of President Coolidge by a plu
rality seems at this writing almost a
certainty.

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME
Whenever Our Friends Tell Us “(he
I’laiu Truth” We’re Sure to Hear
Something Unpleasant About
Ourselves —Why Can't They
Tell the Pleasant Thingis,
Equally True?
WHY is it that people who pride
themselves on always speak
ing the truth never feel call
ed upon to tell any but unpleasant
truths?

"y / that you are
' r ‘ Is about to be st.ih
tyU bed in a vital
»•»» xran* Ya -..ma spot. Those who
are going to say
something pleasant to you do not
have to back it up with an affidavit
as to their veracity. They know
you will believe them, anyhow.
Perhaps it is because the overly
truthful are so often mean, and spite
ful and cruel, and envious, and use
their truth speaking as a cloak for
the dirty work they are too coward
ly to do in the open that we all give
Truthful James and Veracious Jane
a wide berth and clasp Ananias and
Siphira to our bosoms.
For better any day is a cheerful
liar than the truth teller who wounds
you to the quick and turns life to
dust and ashes on your lips.
Now we are all miserable sinners.
We admit it. We are full of faults
and foibles. We have our weak
nesses, and our little vanities, and
we know that often enough we make
ourselves ridiculous in the eyes of
our fellow creatures, and that there
are none so mean as to do us rever
ence.
But we also have our good points.
We have our great moments. In
the general rubbish of our charac
ters is hidden some jewel of purest
ray. We may be a bore, tiresome
and prosy, but we have stood the
gaff of life like a soldier. We may
be fat and homely, yet have the soul
of an angel. We may be fussy and
have curious little ways, and yet
prove ourselves a hero in some great
crisis.
When all is said, we are not so
bad. and yet the people who feel it
their sacred duty to tell you the
truth never have any compulsion on
their consciences to • tell you the
pleasant truths. Their obligation is
always the other way.
If Veracious Jane hears that a
woman's husband is philandering
around with other women, and that
he has taken his stenographer out
to dinner, she can’t get her hat on
quick enough to run around and tell
the wife about it. But she has no
urge to go and to tell the women
the truth who have husbands who
don't know that there's another
petticoat in the world except their
own wives.
Yet it breaks the heart of the
woman who has a wandering hus
band to hear the truth about him,
and it would make the other women
happy to hear the truth about
theirs.
THREE CRIMINALS OFFER
TO HANG IF TEAM’S STAR
PITCHER’S LIFE IS SPARED
Sensational Hurling in Two
Games, With Shadow of
Gallows Hanging Over
Him, Makes Hero of San
Quentin Inmate
BY L. OWEN
(Special Leased Wire to The Journal—Copy
right, 1921.)
SAN RAFAEL, Cal.. Sept. 10.—
The strange spectacle of three hard
ened criminals volunteering to let
themselves be hanged in order that
the baseball team of their iron-bar
red “alma mater” might acquire an
unbeatable baseball pitcher, Is pre
sented at San Quentin prison here.
The baseball pitcher in whose
stead they offered to suffer death
is Clarence (“Tuffy”) Reid, nineteen,
year-old farmer-newsboy, of LOS
Angeles, gangster and murderer.
Two of the convict trio who are
willing to go to the gallows in his
stead are members of the prison
baseball team, to which Reid is a
recent recruit. The other is just a
rabid convict fan. who literally
speaking, would rather give his life
than see the “home team'’ beaten.
Reid, under sentence of death and
less than two weeks ago snatched
back from the hangman's noose by
an eleventh-hour court reprieve as
the gallows was being made ready
for him, today is the pride of San
Quentin. Were he not a felon with
less than one chance in a thousand
for his life, and none whatever for
his liberty, it is probable the big
league scouts would be interested in
his pitching ability.
Sensational Filching
Twice within ten days now the
condemned youth, with the shadow
of death constantly lurking before
his eyes, has pitched the prison team
to sensational victory. In the first
game, on Labor day, against a
strong nine from the Bank of Cali
fornia. San Francisco, he scored a
I to 0 victory, striking out twelve
batsmen and allowing but three hits.
Again on Tuesday, in a prison game
celebrating California's admission to
the union, he pitched his fellow con
victs to a vcitory over the fast Mer
cantile Trust team, of San Fran
cisco, allowing five hits and strik
ing out nine men.
The offer of his fellow convicts to
substitute for Reid on the gallows,
provided his life be spared, for the
prison baseball team, was made fol
lowing Tuesday s game. A delega
tion of convicts sent, word to the
warden that they desired to present
“a very important matter." When
tiie warden responded, the spokes
man of the convicts told him in ef
fect:
"Reid is the best pitcher San Quen
tin ever had. We can't afford to
have him hanged. The prison wants
a winning baseball team and is w:’l.
ing to get it. So if you could fix
it up with the governor to have
•■'body else take Reid's place, anv
one nf three men is willing to go
; > the g,allows in his Stead.”

1 Same wry about your children.
It is only the things you don't want
Io hear about your children that
Truthful James and Veracious Jane
are impelled to tell you. Johnny
and Susie may have been as good
as gold and walked the straight and
narrow path for 3G4 days during the
year, and no clam could have been
| silenter about them than the afore
said Truthful James and A’eracious
Jane. They pinned no good-conduct
medal on the youngsters.
On the 365th day, however, let
Johnny be seen driving a car too
fast, or Susie wearing a dress of
which Truthful James and Veracious
Jane do not approve and dancing a
stop that they didn’t, dance when
thej- were young, and they cannot
rest in their beds until they come
and tell you that your young ones
are town talk and are headed
straight for perdition.
And did you ever notice that it is
only when you are sick and worn
out, and your complexion has got
the color of a saleratus biscuit, or
when you have put on ten pounds
of fat and have developed a feathei’-
bed figure that really truthful peo
ple tell you how you look?
They don't say a word as long as
you are fit and fine, and willowy
and easy on the eyes. It is only
when the truth is a solar-plexus
blow to you that they hand it to you.
In like manner you may be a fash
ion plate, as to your clothes, for
years and years without ever once
getting a word of commendation
from the truth speaker. But appear
once in a. made-over gown or an in
discreet hat and she's on the job.
“My dear, how cleverly you have
furbished up that old dress that
you’ve been wearing for the last two
years! I declare it almost looks
like new. But your hat! Really,
dearie, you know I always speak
the truth and say just what I think,
and I don't feel that I should be
i acting the part of a friend if I did
not tell you that it is ten years too
young for you and brings out every
line in your face.”
Os course, in society we can step
wide of the truth tellers, and we do,
but in the home circle we are at
their mercy. We cannot escape
them except by death, divorce or de
sertion, and so we must endure them
as best we may. And, alas, in many
homes the telling of unpleasant
truths is accounted a virtue.
The husband does, not hesitate to
I tell his wife that she has lost her
‘ looks; that she is getting old and
frumpy; that she hasn’t enough sense
to know what she is talking about,
and every time the dinner isn't up
to the mark he tells her how poor
a, cook she is. Mother tells father
how different he is from the man
■ she htought she was marrying: what
I a poor figure he cuts in society;
i what a pinhead he is not to be able
Ito make more money, and both
I monologue about every fault the
1 children have.
Father never says a word about
! mother's love and devotion. Mother
j never mentions father’s sacrifices
I and toil for his family. Neither one
I of them ever gives a word of praise
■ to the children, yet the one set of
truths is just as true as the other.
What a pity we don't tell the
pleasant truths and suppress the un
pleasant ones!
