WHERE WE ARE NEEDED
,{ European statesmen, alarmed by
•the boldnesg and aggressive, attitude,
the Turks halve manifested within
the last few days, are reported by
London dispatches to be “trying to
hurry up the Lausanne Near East
peace conference/’ hoping thereby
to avert “the threatened war menace
at the Dardanelles."
That same dispatch says that
“America may yet become directly
involved in the Near East crisis," for
the reason, as th e correspondent
points out, that “the Kemalist Turks
are demanding the return of Mosul,
a rich section of the Mesopotamian
oil fields, in Which American capi
tal is interested." Say s the Atlanta
Constitution.
This territory the report goes on
to say. ‘‘embraces the concession of
the Turkish Petroleum compatay in
which the United States- demanded
an interest in the interest of Ameri
can oil enterprise.”
In the light of these facts the pre
cariouhness of our position in the
Near East is plainly. apparent,.
If war comes it will be only by a
rmiratcle that we may keep out of it-
But even df thd s nation .did suc
ceed in avoiding actual participation
in the event o? war between the
Turks and any other nation or
group of nations, it is inevitable that
Americaln national interest and wel
are would suffer.
And yet, by reason of our nation
al policy of "splendid isolation,”
while our peace and four national
’.etfare are in jeopardy as much as

eharred from any participation in
te conference soon to be held in
ape of adverting a war but that is
hreatened and th e danger of which
nperils the peace and security of
whole world.
The policy to which this govern

GOOD MORNING
While Chief Justice Taft was de-'
livering a lecture an Portland, Ore.,
tiis friend, Bishop Keator, entered
the auditorium, and the ex-Presi
dgnt immediately sandwiched this
story into his*talk. -
The Bishop was abs -rbed in a
book while seated in a Pullman car.
The porter scrutinized him very
carefully, and said, “Scuse me,
Senator, anythin’ah kin do fo’ you’,
suh ?” The 14aop replied in the
negative.
The porter returned again GOt„
and asked, “Shall ah open ?ie win
dow, Guv’ner?” The response
once more’was, “No thinks."
A third excursion he ventured,
“’Scuse me, Kuh’nei, uain’t at
brush yo’ off?”
The Bishop looked up. “Listea
porter,” he said, “I’m not a senator,
or a governor, or a <y>lonel; noth
ing but a poor, common Episcopa’
bishop.”
“Yassah, Bish’p,” replied th;
darky, “but ah jes’ don’ knewet
yo’ wuz one o’ dem face caw<’ .”

EVERYBODY WORKED BUT
FATHER.
“Father’s stomach trouble seemed
to be getting worse all the time and
finally he had to quit work altogeth
er. Two brothers' and myself gave
up school and went to work to sup_
port the family. Father had lost six
ty pounds in weight and was yellow
as saffron and no medicine helped
him. Telling a friend about it six
months ago, she advised taking
• ayr’s Wonderful Remedy. I got a
bottle and it helped father at once.
He was abie to go back to work a
month later, has regained his weight
and strength and eats like a wood
chopper.” It is a simple, harmless

tarrhal mucus from the intestinal
