Entered second--class matter October 1916, at the office wfih.ummama.%&um-.fi' s wWHAT DOES HE MEAN? { Mother arises in the morning, gets breakfast for Father and the children, gets the children off to school and Father off to work. Father spends the day earning money. Mother sperids it sewing, mending, washing, ironing, preparing a hot lunch lorthechfldren.seeinxthattheymdeanuthey go back to school, supervising their play and study after school, cor-- recting what she considers injurious habits, checking up on bad grammar and bad manners, getting and serving dinner. When Father comes home, he plays his part in the family life. He consults with the children about school problems, lays down the law with authority on points where Mother thinks she has not been sufficiently impressive, and adds the weight of his words in seeing that next day's school work is prepared, and finally in getting the reluctant youngsters to go to bed. At last a few minutes of peace. Mother picks up the eve-- ning paper and reads: "The home is the weakest spot in America s SOcIA! I8VIIL of today," Dr. W. A. Trettien, professor of psychology in a Ohio university, declared. "Its influence should be much greater than it is. We should be forced to work out our domestic prob-- lems instead of sidestepping them." It puzzles Mother. She doesn't quite see what more she could have done. She reads the item to Father. He is equally in the dark. _/ . In spite of the apparent prosperity in the United~ States, _ the number of idle men increased greatly since last year. In ume;:v_y.vhcretheowsitunfion \~As eupposed to. .number of idle:men_decreased -- by . stor haif a mi 'b&qifltt © e ore * ans S These topcoat days bring thoughts of winter mornings on the farm when the snow lay a foot deep on the level and break-- fast in the cozy warmth of the kitchen beside the crackling wood range was before daylight. Lo, the mellow lamplight, the frosted windows, the savory aroma of coffee coming to a boil, music of sputtering of grease and batter on hot griddle irons-- and buckwheat cakes by the stack! Nothing else quite sticks to the ribs like the old--fashioned buckwheat griddle cakes. They were filling, but then life in the open midst the rigors of winter is productive of cavaties re-- quiring an unbelievable amount of filling. . _. Maybe man could bake a better pancake than the buckwheat variety, but up to now he hasn't, which fact casts the shadow ef a doubt on the possibility. Given the right kind of batter, '@'smoking griddle, and the result is a work of art, the color of which is a kind of light mahogany with bird's eye maple effect. When these are taken with bricks of butter, dissolving like icebergs in a tropic sea, the thickest of maple syrup or sorghur® poured copiously over the steaming--hot stack--surely they make that proverbial dish "fit for a king." x Here is ecstacy 'that not even Omar with his "jug" and "thou" ever knew, though it is the common heritage of rural America and of those city cousins with a tie still binding them to an old--fashioned home "back on the farm." Americans next year will have a little experience of their own with shrinking money. But, while marks, francs and rubles shrank in value, the dollar's shinkage will be in size. The new bills, one--third smaller in size than those now in tirculation, will be placed in distribution shortly after the beginning of the new year. When the new money has driven out the old it will be found that everybody has been benefited. While the two sizes are in circulation only bankers and magnates will be ifconvenienced and lose a few of the smaller type between larger ones. But when the last of the large bills has disappeared from circulation the government will save money, the wad will make a smaller buige in the pants pocket or silk stocking and paper money will be more mailable as well as portable. * Smail enough to be placed in a wallet or envelope without folding, the diminutive currency will remain cleaner and will live longer. Moreover, Sectetary Mellon says the new bills will be harder to counterfeit "and handsoroer than the old. If any-- producce. e o o t inss apart She [rounle or produced. And if he hmx t rouble of counting two sizes of bills nobody should, for few have more in their own name and none has more under his official control. Although the average citizen has personal reasons to doubt it, about $450,000,000 in bills is outstanding. When the new bills are ready the banks will issue them and send to Wash-- ington the large ones that come into their possession. FARMERS' INCOME GROWS The estimate of the federal farm loan commissioner that $1,000,000,000 more will be reglized by the farmers of the United States on their 1927 crops than on those of last year may or may not be close to the mark, but there can be--no doubt that it is representative of a rapidly improving senti-- ment the country over regarding the position of agriculture and of an improvement in the agricultural situation itself. It would be less than the truth to say that all is well with the farm. However, it is better off this year than last and better off this month than a month ago--which means the trend is in the right direction. _ " . _ What corn growers will lose this year from the predicted "tcropthoy will more than make up by the sharp rise in KEYSTONE PRINTING SERVICE, Publishers.

The coaches operate right into the rrounds at Cedar Crest Country club Gene Tunney worked nine abbre-- viated rounds, four of punching the bag and five at boxing in the ring, here Sunday. Approximately 4,000 spectators journeyed out here to get a fash at the fellow who stabbed Jack Dempsey out of his title a year ago at Philadelphia. The crowd was the biggest that has viewed the champion in action since he established his camp here a few miles south of Antioch. For some unexplained _ reason Tunney did not work full three-- minute rounds. The rounds he work-- ed. with the exception of one, were of the two minute variety. The sec-- ond round that he boxed with Jackie Williams, went two and a half min-- utes.

The three rounds that the _ champion boxed with Vidabeck were not worth writing about. Tunney hit Billy wherever and whenever he pleased, as usual, and looked the heavyweight champion that he is. Gene pulled up after the five ses-- sims in the ring breathing easily and apparently ready to go on for several more sessions.
