.7— Zerbey’s Triumph
The triumph of Joseph H. Zerbey,
fivprietor of the Pottsville Republi-
cE’u and the I’ottsville Morning Pa-
per. in his thirty-year newspaper
' ght to compel the immensely weal-
’ “thy anthracite coal owing interests
”or his country to pay taxes on valu-
able lands and undeveloped tracts
with which to provide in the country

“to government, education of the
ling. sanitation. passable roads and
or physical elements of common
comfort and safety. is a story worth
the consideration of all.
Here is an incident which chal—
lenges the cynical generality that the
press has been wholly commercializ-
ed and reader interest turned from
if. the vital factors of life to mere thrill.

stions.
Zcrbey fought :1 winning battle in
the most. difficult circumstances. lie
dealt. with an issue that was 'pure—
ly local and hit at financial nerve
centres. The coal mining industry
furnishes the wry life blood of the
community his newspapers serve. In
instances ownership is non-resident,
and hence is careless of the welfare
of local institutions and naturally
reckless of idealistic individuals who
might strhe to bctter community
conditions.
Zerbcy may not have had to fight
some of his own "host people." but

SHAW} recently engaged in s. ver-
but light with u. R. Chesterton in
defense of American complaints of
lack of variety at the English break-
fast table. Chesterton declared:
"Breakfasts are uncommon in the
[Jilted States. Americans sleep in
hot houses and awake so thirsty
they are obliged to devour quantics
of fresh fruit and drink gallons of
water and alcohol. That is not
breakfast. it there is one glorious
thing in England which must never
die. it is the breakfast of bacon and
eggs."
Bacon came Shaw: "Why bacon?

CHAPTER XXIV.
It was their first. real disagree-
ment. The breach threatened to
widen. but was interrupted by the
entrance of Donna. Berry into the
scene.
Lure. was clearing away the din-
ner dishes when she came. She
rushed past Bob with a convention-
al greeting as he opened the door
and sought out. Lure.
She .halted at the archway to the
dintngqoom. "Howdy. Mrs. Do-
mestic." Then they locked in a sis-
terly embrace.
Bob resumed his reading in an
easy chair frowning. He had never
liked Donna. and her visit at this
time did not. give her a. larger place
in his esteem. He wanted to settle
this Job matter with his wife. .It
wholly occupied his mind. ,,
He did not pay much attention to
what the women said while Lure
did the dishes. but. he had to drop
his book against his wishes, when

by the hand and sought to drag him

"Come on Bob and be my beau."

"Don't you let Lure. crack the

admonished him; affecting a serious
countenance. . '
He sought to be amiable. but. he

Thus did Edward W. Bolt. donor
of the 860,000 Box Peace Award.
sum up recently the results of the
peace plan contest won by Dr. Char-
les H. Level-more at Brooklyn.
“I believe the result. of the dis-1
ousston of peace that tollewod the
award is best shown by the peace
resolutions adopted by almost all of
the religious con ventlons this year."
said Bok. “Peace is being discussed
everywhere in America. ,\
Wide Interest h Contest Abrold.
“Abroad the interest in peace is
visualized in the large number of
peace plans that are being submitted
in a similar award contest. inaugur-
ated by Edward .A. Filene of Boston‘
in which competition is limited to
residents of Great Britain. France.
Italy. Germany and Belgium."
Bok said he believes the Amer-
ican public will insist on action at
the next session of the Senate on
the World Court resolutions sent to 3
that body by President Harding with ’
reservations by Secretary Hughes.
and that that action will be favor-
able.
"The adoption of the resolutions
will not imperil our own sovereign-
ity. We must line up with the other
nations of the world to adjudicate
the world's problems."
England Ahead in Literature
Turning to literature he said the
standard of American literature is
ascending but still behind that of
Great Hritain. with its Kipling and
Gsisworthy and others. Bok is s
director of the Curtis Publishing
Company.

Mark Twain replied as follows:
"Yes. Agassi: docs recommend su-
