JAPAN TO EXPEND ‘ WUGE SUM ON FAR Chicago Exposition in 1933 to Get Big Boost From Nipâ€" pon Is Report; Other Nations Aid Japan announces that she will spend $3,000,000 or more, for her represenâ€" tation at Chicago‘s Centennial Celeâ€" bration in 1933, while Sweden, Norâ€" way, and Denmark are already planâ€" ning a Scandinavian group of buildâ€" ings that will make a most impresâ€" sive unit at the coming World‘s Fair. Inspiring Prospect Stuyvesant Peabody, chairman of the Enrollment Campaign, declares that nothing short of an earthquake can now prevent the most wonderful and inspiring exposition in history. C. T. Mulligan, representative of Swift & Co., in Montevideo, Uruguay, sends in a five peso note for his enâ€" roliment in the World‘s Fair Legion, "as the nearest thing to five bucks that I can put my hands on, in time for the mail boat." "Fiftyâ€"one branches of industry; thirtyâ€"three national groups, all are working toward the same end, each seeking to make high score, and from every corner of the wide world comes the same message: "‘We wil} be at Chicago in 1933 with the best we have, because the world will be there to see it‘." From All the World From the uttermost parts of the world are coming splendid responses to the news that Chicago will celeâ€" brate her Centennial in 1933. Instineâ€" tively the outside world senses the fact that the celebration will be magâ€" nificent, simply because it is Chicago. Now that the industry of Chicagoâ€" land is organized in behalf of the Centennial, the Enrollment Campaign is proceeding stronger than ever. Fiftyâ€"one different divisions of comâ€" mercial, financial and manufacturing industry have lined up, each with a commanding figure at the head. They are asking each of their one million employes to subscribe five dollars to the Entolliment Fund as & gilt edged investment for future prosâ€" perity, plus the ten complimentary tickets guaranteed. "This age of speed has caused peoâ€" ple to get their religion in half the time they used to spend in church pews," declares Dr. Henry E. Cobb, prominent New York pastor. "I, myself, find," he told the Womâ€" an‘s Home Companion, "that I can say as much in less time than formâ€" erly. Recently on the thirtyâ€"fifth anâ€" miversary of my pastorate I decided to preach the same sermon as 1 did in 1893. But I found that it would require fiftyâ€"five minutes to deliver, which is much too long for the averâ€" age congregation. When I had to cut it down to twentyâ€"two minutes, the longest. sermon that is generally preached these days, I found that I had covered everything. AGE OF SPEED CAUSES SHORTER SERMONS NOW Prominent New York Pas Says He Can Say as Much In Less Time "But in the original sermon I said that "the world is coming to the realization that war is futile in setâ€" tling international difficulties as it would be in settling national difficulâ€" ties.‘ Since then we have had two wars and several other fracases, so I am not so sure that the age of speed is getting us anywhere after all." They Are Mostly Bachelors and Their Exacting Work Is Only for 90 Days ALASKA FARMERS HAVE SHORTEST BUSY SEASON A land where most of the farmers are bachelors whose work requires their closest attention only 90 days of the year was described today when the work of Dr. C. C. Georgeson, repâ€" resentative of the United States Deâ€" partment of Agriculture, was recountâ€" ed in The American Magazine. 000 a year, "probably has an easier time than any other farmer in the world, once he is established." Durâ€" ing his winter season, the farmer of this country which is famous in many states of the union for its fine berries, its potatoes, cabbages and a long list of products, works in the mines, hunts or engages in some other activity. "The Alaskan farmer," says Dr. Georgeson, who since 1900 has seen appropriations for agriculture in Alaska increase from $12,000 to $76,â€" There is a petition to remove the receiver, Myron Dietrick. It is figâ€" ured that there still might be some returns to come from the road, but| Dietrick, on his part, has another| matter to take care of in the case.‘ He names Fred Churchill and Dennis ‘ Putman and G. Stroker of Waukegan ( in a contempt proceedings. He indiâ€"| cated that he will charge these and| others interested in a golf course are | trespassing on the railroad lantl. The case was set by Judge Claire C. Edâ€" | wards for Sept. 5. | "Through years‘ of experimenting," says the magazine of Dr. Georgeson‘s work, "he has evolved 170 kinds of pptatoes suited to Alaska. In the Matanuska Valley farms have proâ€" duced 11 tons to the acre. Potatoes form Alaska‘s most important crop The Wauconda and Lake Zurich railâ€" road, that short line which gained conâ€" siderable mention some time ago when & receiver was appointed for it, is up in litigation again. This time the acâ€" tion in the local Circuit court is a double one. The sun, during the growing seaâ€" son, works practically 24 hours a day in this northern country, Dr. Georgeâ€" son explains.
