Our doctor's* seven -year oM son had U*en five weeks in the hospital at the county seat. Word had come that "> j.ln; specialists had giv en tip hope. "Can't anything be done?" some owe asked. " The child is in the hands of God", was aJl the doctor could say "Then let's try God," said Mr. Whityv the minister. Orn Dubois, at the telephone ex change, called up everybody on the farmers' lines. "Come to th'e church untight, to pray for Bitly Persing!" 11 v word of mouth the call ran through the village. That night the church was crowded, and no more fer vent prayers ever rose to the Throne of Grace than went up from that lit tle country town. Next morning good news came from the hospital. The boy seemed better. Next day they said he had a chance. ' The third day, a decided improvement. | Another day ? out of danger. Do our New England folk sti!l be lieve in tho f ptwer of prayer?

Mario Raspuz.*; was cutting the hay on my lower meadow (he other day, when the tongue of the mower broke olT. The oak fl.nft had rotted at the i /'? bolt-holes. I caf.od up the hardware store in Great Harrington, eight miles away, and found they rad a tongue in stock for thai make of machine, al ready bored fov the bolts. When Mario brought back the new tongue, however, instead of being oak ? or ash, which is better ? it proved to be just a stick of Oregon. (pine. "That's all tney are maklig 'em of now," the dealer explained. Avhen I "squawked '' over the telephone. "Quality doffsi.'t count any more ? only price;. farmers want cheap goods ? and I'm telling you, they're getting 'em! T'rat tongue '11 last you two ? three years, anyway.'? The old one had seen 20 years of service.

That ;s | by all odds, the most widely-discuss j ed question in Washington these days. The lower Houst of Congress, having overwhelmingly voted down one ot' the President's "must" orders, the I . . ? ''death sciiie'.irc" in the Utilities Holding Company bill, is feeling its j oats. It may take the bit in its teetii j and run wild. j The boy:- have been taking orders j without open protest, though with :i ; good deal of grumbling, for t.he sake, | mainly, of part* harmony and their ( own chances of reelection. Xow they are beginning to yonder whether it is good polit'.'-> ro keep on as they have been going A lot of them, par ticularly from tho South, are getting word from back home that the folks are getting tired ol having new pro? jedts sprang on them, and wish Washington wruld stow down for .1 while. Then* was pretty general resent ment in Congiess of the President's effort to have his new "share the' wealth" tax program rushed through wn five days' notice, and that resent - tueiit was not materially cooled by his' concession that they might take all j summer to collider it. Congress may or may not Work out a new tax bill that will meet ihe President's views. Talk of adjou~i?ing and letting com mitters study !l?e tax matter, for re port and action at the next session, is heard on maiiV sides. Whatt. is more likely is that the boys will stay here until fall aind maybe try to put over j some things which the President does not want. It is moie than likely that, instead of a bill to tax only hnge incomes, enormous esta-cs, and wealthy corpo rations, such a- President Roosevelt , asked for, Congress may give him a ! general revisioi: of income and inher j itance tax laws 'Tinning all the way ? down the scale. Also, a few green back silver and bonus bills for -good measure. i Another fchir.: that has got the boys ? .in Capitol Hi'l stirred up is the open charge 'that the Administration sought to buy votes fr.r I he" death sentence" measure, by the promise of patronage and threats of withholding work-relief funds. Representative Ralph Brewster (R.) of Maine made the flat statement that one of the " brain-trusters" who drew up the Holding Company hill, Thomas ft. Coicoran of the R. F. C., staff, had warned him that if he voted "wrong" the funds for the Passanui quoddy power project would be held up. The result is a Congressional in vestigation of iobbving hv both out siders and insiders. The President s latest bombshell '.i his letter to Representative Sam B. Hill, of Washington, urging Congress to disregard tlv Constitution in con sidering the Guffey Bituminous Coal Miners' Regulator bill. Mr. Hill is chairman of thi, sufc-coinmittce having the bill in charge. Mr. Roosevelt wrote : "I hope your c-ommitte will not per mit doubts in to constftut ion ali t v, however reasonable, to block the sug gested legislation." The President explained in his let ter that the only way to find out whether the e.?a? mining was subject to Federal regulation was to try to regulate it and -o bring the question to the Supreme Court. "A decisio.i . by the Suprem.. Court relative to this measure would be helpful, ' 'he said.' ' as indicating?, wit', increasing clarity, the constitutional limits within which this government mvt operate". Now the boys are asking ea/h other whether that v ould be good politics? for them individually, and for the Democratic Party.
