Wednesday, Sept. 26, 1923. Aerial Dare-Devil Again in Limelight Former Representative Manuel ~ Herrick of Oklahoma -Just can’t keep of limelight. While In gross he was called the '’Aerial Intro- M devil" and he narrowly escaped death In one of his flights. Since retiring l from tbe house he has become a de- i ft*'? tectlve In Washington. Recently Miss %** ■ Ethel Chratie. a government employee, - ' * charged him with disorderly conduct f) on the street and testimony was given S that he used profane language and ' < */) threatened to get the Job of the police- 'u'Jj';**' * - man who made the arrest. Then the “Aerial Dare-Devil" brought suit f against Miss Chrane alleging that she ■' promised to marry hint and that on one occasion In his office at the capltol y A^k she sat on his lap from 7p.m. to ... ni > -.JMSgr JOk Now Miss Chrane comes back with a damage suit for $100,000; she says A ~ • she didn’t sit on his lap. And what’s more, she says the “Aerial Dare-devil” Is a "gold-digger.” And here’s the “gold-digging”' plot which caused her to break off her engagement with “Lonely Manuel.” The pair, once fopd lovers, but now parted in wrath, were to be secretly married, and subsequently to live together very openly. When the newspapers had raised a sufficient number of horrified protests over this defiance of the statutes, nil Innocent of the fact that the knot had been tied, Manuel was to sue them for enough money to settle the German debts, and the two were to live happily ever after while the publishers tumbled Into bankruptcy.

He quarreled with everybody around him, fought valiantly in as many of the wars of his time as he could get into, and all the while toiled unflaggingly at his trade. 1% narrowly escaped being one of tbe great artists Os tils day. . In the autumn, of his life he wpote his reminiscences, In which he fells of the evils -he encountered, and rightly characterizes them as inesti mable. Hard luck Is nearly always a bless ing. It Is always very successfully disguised, but after it has passed the disguise falls away and we can cal culate its true value. The Intrigues •of his fellow crafts men who sought to supplant him in the* favor of the pope, Infuriated Cel lini at the time. He was constantly in fear that they would succeed and he would lose much Valuable work. But he toiled all the harder to. es tablish himself, and soon discovered that the Intrigues had really benefited him. Often he laid aside his goldsmith's tools to take up the sword, and com plained bitterly about It at the time. But Ills heroic fighting disposition won him new and powerful friends, and through them more work. Constantly In fear that he might be thrust aside by other craftsmen who appeared, he wrought all the more untiringly. And in the end, although he never became as great as Michelangelo or other brilliant figures of the Renaissance, he left work that will endure forever. And at last he was able to write a book about his life which will remain a classic as long as men can read. Cellini’s autobiography will give you a delightful picture of one of the most Interesting periods of all history, and It will convince you that a man can succeed, even though opposed by half of the people who surround him, and often by the very ruling powers themselves.

Absorb This: AN OUNCE OF OOLD DUST 18 WORTH A TON OF IN TENTION THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE Passive Resistance Ends. .Charlotte Observer. Passive resistance on the part of the Germans in the Ruhr has come to an end, and very soon, perhaps before this is printed, we shall have some sort of official announcement to this effect. Im pending official decisions have been fore cast by the German newspapers, which evidently have been preparing the read ing public in Germany for what was known to be forthcoming. Vorwaerts two days ago bluntly stat ed that the termination of the Ruhr con flict had become a mattei; of necessity and that it were folly to attempt to con ceal the fact that passive resistance was visibly losing force in the face of the heavy odds imposed by foreign coercion and the further fact that the National exchequer was no longer able to carry the monstrous financial burden caused by such resistance. Some other papers are less outspoken than Vorwaerts. and. while they have not attempted to break the news of coming events “gently. '* their half hearted discussions plainly indicat ed that the time for optimism had pass eel. Officially the termination of Germany’s moral or weaponless warfare upon the French and Belgian encroachment of her territory and sovereignty", as Berlin' dis patches put it, had not been decreed, but aside from a noisy minority of super nationalists’competent opinion outside of ficial circles land political, industrial financial and labor leaders were no long er under the delusion that the drooping spirits of the people of the Ruhr and the Rhineland could be sufficiently re animated to make passive resistance long er effective. Human psychology, however, was not the only determining factor in the hope lessly forlorn situation confronting the Stresemann Cabinet, for the cunjulative effects of eight months of economic dev astation resulting from “the Nation’s de fense of its sovereignty,” had brought the Nation’s leaders to realization that further indulgence in passivity would end in disaster. Germany will have to pay, and it had been better if she had learned the lesson eight months or a year ago and saved herself a lot of trouble. She is far worse off now*.' financially and morally and diplomatically, \lnin she was before. After the foregoing had been put into type, a dispatch came through from Ber lin stating' that Chancellor Stresemann laid announced last night that the Gov ernment had decided to abandon passive resistance immediately and uncondition ally.
