The avsrage age
of our Supreme
Court Justices is
ssvsnty - ona
years. Twenty-
six years ago
Chief Justice
Hughes took his
seat on the Su-
preme Court
bench. President
Taft rendered
public service by
appointing him to
succeed Justice
Brewer.
He left the
bench to run for
President against Woodrow Wilson,
and would doubtless have been
elected had he not goi-e to California.
Had he been elected he would have
remained in the United States and
probably would have saved the coun
try ten thousand million dollars that
Woodrow Wilson shoveled out in his
ecstasy of self-approval.
Rioting in London's "Mile End
Road," in which the faces of men
and women were slashed with razor
blades and one man was thrown
through a shop window, etc., seems
rather "un-English," to put it mild
ly. Fist fighting has been en
couraged by distinguished English
men, including judges, on the
ground that it is "better than using
knivea."
It is better, doubtless, but what
about the razor blades?

AN EARLY "BLACK LEGION"
O N TREES were posted mysteri
ous squares of paper, black, ox
white or red, summoning men to
midnight meetings. At these meet
ings there were oaths and grip*
and pass-words.
That was more than three-quar
ters of a century ago, but mem-
be»s of the "Black Legion," who
created such a furore early in 1936,
would have felt pretty much at
home in those meetings back in the
forties and fifties. There they
would have fraternized with mem
bers of "The Supreme Order of
the Star-Spangled Banner," a se
cret society which grew into a po
litical party, the Native Americans,
with a platform of opposition to
foreigners, the papacy, infidelity
and socialism.
Later they became known as the
Know Nothings because, when a
member was questioned about the
order, he invariably answered "I
don’t know." In New York and
Pennsylvania they elected several
men to congress and in 1847 they
held a national convention at Phil
adelphia. There they nominated
Gen. Henry Dearborn for vice-pres
ident and recommended, but did
not formally nominate, Gen. Zach
ary Taylor, the Whig candidate for
President.
In 1854-59 the Know Nothings car
ried Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island, New Hampshire,
Kentucky and California and looked
forward to the election of 1856 with
high hopes. Soon (he party threw
off its secret character and it be
came apparent that they were
mostly Whigs. In February they
held another convention in Philadel
phia at which they formally re
named their party the American
party. They nominated for Presi
dent Millard Fillmore, the Whig
vice-president who had served all
but one month of the term to which
Zachary Taylor had been elected,
and gave him for a running mala

T
HE life of a motion picture
star leaves a good deal to be
desired, no matter how much money
or fame or fun he has. There’s the
little matter of the effect of the
studio lights on the players’ eyes,
for example. You don’t hear so
much about “Klieg eyes” now as
you used to, but the danger is
there just the same.
William Powell has had really se
rious trouble with his eyes of late,
and Eric Blore is so careful of his
that he will work only a certain
number of hours a day—about four
or five. Can’t afford to take risks,
you know. Blore is a delightful per
son. Has an English accent off the
screen as well as on. Goes visiting
on other sets in his favorite cos
tume, a resplendent lounging robe
and dark glasses.
When motion picture actresses
come to New York for the first time
they usually state

Revolution, political disorder, an
archy—these are words which char
acterize much of the world’s news
of our day. What should be our
attitude toward government? Should
a Christian participate in revolts
against government? These are
questions that stir the hearts of
men.
The Bible has an answer, and It
is found in our lesson for today.
Let us study it with care and seek
God’s message for us and for our
nation in these utterly confusing
days.
We consider together a portion
couldn’t j of Paul's epistle to the Romans in

sights — the places trinal foundation, he turns to a
like Central park practical application. Let us ever

that all tourists want is necessary to right living, it is
to see. But in Anne never sufficient to hold the doctrine

Good citizenship of the true type
is the result of staunch Christian
character. Much of the weakness
in our political and social life can
be traced to the neglect of the
things of God In the home, the
school, and the church.
Paul presents the Christian as
one who has the right attitude U>-
. ward his neighbors, and toward his
own daily walk. Tho Christian is

O NE day In the early part of
the Nineteenth century while
the New York legislature was la
session in Albany an excited mes
senger burst into the chamber.
"Sister meeker," he cried, "and
lembers of the megislature! Circu
lar singcumstance! The Eliver Ola-
worth's biled her buster |"
When he calmed down enough to
repeat what he had said, • "Mr.
Speaker and the members of the
legislature" learned Jiat th» "Oliver
Ellsworth" had "busted her boil
ers," that is to say, a steamer by
that name had blown up.
Perhaps this excited messenger
had never heard of Rev. W. A.
Spooner, warden of New college,
Oxford, England, but the fact .a
that he was giving a splendid ex-
ample of the use of "Spoonerisms."
Reverend Spooner had the nervous
habit of transposing the first let
ters of two words in the same
phrase. Once he prayed In public
for "our queer dean" instead of
"our dear queen." Once he said
he cherished a “half-warmed fish’’
in his heart when he wanted to
say a "half-formed wish."
So his name haj been perpetuated
in the name for such oddities in
speech — they’re "spoonerisms.
And in recent years Americans have
become more familiar with them
than ever before, thanks to a radio
comedian named Oy Ratwill—1

preserve it. "We are at the dawn
of a decisive conflict between the
representatives of order and an

Dr. Irving Langmuir,- brilliant
Nobel prize winner, announced a
"counterpartof life,"produced chem
ically; interesting, probably not im

produce "some counterpart of life"

run for office, man’s domination
will not be threatened. A cigar store

an Indian.

. they declared they were ready

Aa a matter of fact they did just
that in the campaign of 1M6. Op
posed to slavery, they joined
forces with tha Liberty party, took
the name of the Free Soil party
and nominated Martin Van Buren
and Charles Francis Adams of
Massachusetts. This split in the
Democratic party resulted in a vic
tory for Gen. Zachary Taylor, the
Whig candidate, over Van Buren
and over Lewis Cass, the regular
Democratic nominee.
Along with "Hunker" and "Barn
burner" is another interesting
name once applied to the Demo
crats, growing out of the rivalry of
these two factions. In the cam
paign of 1840 the Whigs called their
opponents the "Locofocos” because
at a meeting of the New York
Democrats the two factions were
trying: to get control of the meet

HI. Personally-Clean and Spirtt-
nal (w. 11-14).
The time when our redemption is
to be fully completed—that is, when
the Lord himself returns — is at
hand. We therefore will not live
as those who walk in darkness, but
as children of the light, clean in
life and thought. We will "put on
the Lord Jesus Christ."
In these days when almost every
wayside store and hundreds of thou
sands of city buildings have been
converted into drinking places far
worse than the old-time saloon,
when men and women are mak
ing drunken sots of themselves,
it is indeed time for Christians to
raise their voices in protest and to
act to protect the boys and girls
of America.
But above all—let us win them
to Christ, for it they “put on Christ"
they will "make no provision Jor
the flesh to fulfill the lusts thereof."

Glass paperweights are among the
objects prized by antique collectors.
Many of them were made by the
glassmakers as gifts for their
friends. Few of them are over 100
years old, though glass paper
weights were found in Egyptian
tombs^and in Greek ruins. Most of
the dated-'ptif>€fweight8 were made
between 1847 and 1850 at the Bac
carat glass factory in France, the
New England factory in Cambridge,
Mass., or the Sandwich Glass Fac
tory on Cape Cod.
