Be cocky are the party's "lead era” over the “certainty” of suc cess that new stationery just or dered for use at Democratic head quarters bears no printed return card, no address—just the picture, in blood-red ink, ot a crowing rooster, neck arched, wings flap ping, proclaiming victory. This, when not only the presi dential and vice presidential candi : dates are wholly matters of specu : iation, but even the temporary ; chairman for the convention baa not been decided on. Finis james garrett, of Dresden, Temp, stands weU up on the list of possible keynoters of the Democratic convention, how ever. Garrett, although only 48, is one of the seniors of Congress, in point of service. This session he com pletes 20 years in the lower house, l during which time he has proven one of the steadiest, most consist ! ent workers on the Democratic side. As one of the four Demo " cratic members of the rules com mittee, he is one of his party's legislative strategists. A slender, Sallow Southerner, is he, actually rivaling Nick I<ong worth. Republican leader in the House, in [mint of haldness, but hiding the barren expanse of his cranial dome with a thin thatch of long hair from one side, carefully combed upward and across the toil. A good speaker, of the fiery, dra matic type, Garrett doubtless could get the Democratic delegates away to a spectacular, hip-hip-hooray start. How they would finish, well, that would be the lookout of the permanent chairman. But it they want him to finish NOTED MEN ENDORSE CHAUTAUQUA MOVEMENT / " *> ' ■ “Let me express the hope that the peqgle will not fail in the support of a patriotic institution j&at may be said to be an integral part of the national defense.” —Former President Woodrow Wilson “Chautauqua has served to reveal thq, individual American community to itself at its best. It has been a voluntary, inspirational service in which men and women have given the best they have in them for the ? . sake of the social interest.” —Former President Warred G. Harding “The Chautauqua movement has been one of the most influential of our democratic endeavors.”. , —Charles E. Hughes, Secretary of State “What I have seen of public life gives me ft realiz ing sense of the power of the Chautauqua movement to mould public opinion.” —Governor Gifford Pincbot of Ptansylvania “A movement based on an idea which has now spread over the whole of our country and, in fftet, over the world; an idea which has been and will continue to be of'immense educational value to all the people and of first importance to their welfare.” —Thomas A. Edison “With all the great influence that the press com mands, it remains true that the platform is a powerful agency to instruct and to inspire.” —Albert Shaw, Editor Review of Review* “The Chautauqua movement has probably done more toward keeping American public opinion in formed, alert and unbiased than any other movement.” lrving Fisher, Professor Political Economy, Yalo University REDPATH CHAUTAUQUA NEWS SERVICE 1 HAVE YOUR RUGS WASHED! j & Method Approved by Leading Weavers, Endorsed by Larg- !!

BUSINESS AND THE OtTLOOK Philadelphia Record. > The reduction in the rediscount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York 'from 4 1-2 foA per cent, came as a treat surprise la financial and busi ness circles last week.
