WHEN PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT took his oath of office, he said "I will, to the beat of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, so help me God." But when the Guffey Coal Bill was up, Mr. Roosevelt wrote the Con-- gress, "I hope your Committee will not permit doubts as to constitu* tionaiity* however reasonable, to block the suggested legislation." The subservient New Deal Congress thereupon passed the Guffey Coil Bill, and--as Informed persons expected--the Supreme Court promptly held it unconstitutional., This "rubber stamp" Congress also has given President Roosevelt "blank checks" to spend as he pleased.

Such a regimentation might deny a farmer's son an opportunity to hew a living for himself on his Own farm and prevent a man establishing himself in a business of his own making.

During the summer of 1016 E. L. Dickerson and H. B. Weiss of the New Jersey State Department of Agriculture collected a few beetles in a nursery near , Riverton, N. J.. of a species wi th which they were not familiar. They were later identified by the bureau of entomology and plant quarantine as belonging to the same species as a beetle common to Japan, but not heretofore occurring In the United States. From the time of Its discovery this •Insect has increased and spread at a relatively rapid rate in New Jersey and Pennsylvania .and in spite of the combined efforts of the United States Department of Agriculture and the st a t e d enartments of 11 re two states^in question its spread continues. Legends of Giant* Awe Some People in France According to a census of giants In France there are 175 medieval monsters existing In French Flanders, writes a Lille United Pjjess correspondent. The giants have an average height of .22 feet and range in age from one to five centuries. They are the world's biggest toys and the Flemish populatons of France have been amusing themselves with these monstrous playthings since the Fifteenth century. The municipal councils provide communal shelter for these wood, cardboard and cloth giants which emerge once a year to preside at the town festivals and carnivals. -' Gargantua, the historic brain child of Rabelais, resides at Bailleul and receives the homage of his subjects on Mardi Gras. Calais, the seaport town, is ruled by two gigantic sailors, &ich 20 feet tall, while Bergues has its own Individual citizen named Rerguemard, a giant of 1830 who wears a stovepipe hat that Is five feet high. The Bible tells of a shepherd boy named David killing the giant Goliath several thousand years ago, but Goliath is living at Ath, a village of French Flanders. Mrs. Goliath lives with him and their sple_exercise is their annual and hilarious promenade through the streets of Ath. The census reveals that the greater part of these French giants are bachelors, there are several widowers) while a ^mall minority, csn boast and children. r n Why Corduroy Is So Called The name "corduroy" meaning king's cord, was first applied to the material *in the Seventeenth century, when it composed the uniform of the French king's huntsmen. • " Wiry Wet Clothe* Look Darker - v,\Vet clothes appear deeper and brighter because the minute droph'ts of water fill up the spaces between the threads and refract the light.* T T-- Roosevelt-Primary Foe Supports G.

These mirrors produce upon light effects similar to those of lenses, except that the concavi mirror corresponds to the convex lens and the convex mirror to the concave lens. Now, as In a lens, from whatever dl section rsiys of light may fall upon a concave mirror, they are brought to a focus near the central ray, and If they fall obliquely from one side of the axis of the mirror, they will be reflected at the same angle on the other side of tjie axis.

War Call Up to Congress' If President So Urges The President of the United States cannot formally declare war, but when he finds an actual state of war In existence, he may take the necessary military steps in the absence of congressional action. He is the sole Judge whether such a condition exists. Under the Constitution of the United States, the President has the power to veto an act declaring war, and congress has the power to pass It over his veto. A bill or joint resolution declaring war does not differ from any other bill or joint resolution, and cannot become effective until It has been presented to the President and approved by him or repassed over his veto by two-thirds of the senate and house of representatives. No President has ever vetoed an act 4®- clarfng war. ft would seem t<H»e~bad policy for. congress to^pass such an act without the approval of the official who by virtue of his office is commander- in-chief of the army and navy and who would be charged with the prosecution of the war. As a matter of fact, It Is . customary for congress to pass an act declaring war only after the President has recommended :such':4>tep.
