By BOYCE HOUSE
Champ Clark received a ma-
jority of the votes at a Democrat-
ic national convention but he did
not receive the presidential nomi-
nation. The two-thirds rule was
in effect and William Jennings
Bryan put up such a fight a-
gainst some of the elements back-
ing the Missourian that the nomi-
nation eventually went to Wood-
row Wilson. The nomination vir-
tually meant the presidency as
that was 1912, the year that Theo-
dore Roosevelt split the Repub-
lican vote by organizing the Pro-
gressive Party.
Not long after the election —
l (so a traveling man who visited
j Piggott, Ark., related to my friend
Herschel Potter, the druggist, and
he told me the story) — Bryan
was in a city in Clark's Congres-
sional district for a lecture. It
was Sunday night and the silver-
tongued orator was to speak on a
religious subject.
j A crowded house greeted him.
| Many were supporters of Clark
and when Bryan rose to speak,
someone called out in a hostile
tone, "Tell us about the Baltimore
convention!"
There was a murmur which
meant that the heckler had struck
a favorable chord. Bryan flushed
and said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you
do not object to such a topic on
Sunday, I will be happy to oblige
the gentleman."
He then launched into a justifi-
cation of his position and soon the
entire audience was standing and
cheering.
Patrick Henry — Webster —
Prentiss — Ingersoll — Grady —
Bryan — such is the roll of
American orators.
Heywood Broun, who chronicled
the Dempsey - Carpentier fight,
said that when Carpentier — older,
lighter, conceded no chance — en-
tered the ring, he was cheered
but Dempsey was not. To have
done so (Broun declared) would
have been like cheering Niagara
Falls when a man was about to
go over it in a barrel.
When I was in Memphis, Tenn.,
attending high school, once a
month the installment collector for
the furniture company would come
to our front door. He was a very
serious man who wore a black
suit, a black hat and a high col-
lar. He made his rounds with a
horse and buggy. The buggy was
black and had a top which he al-
ways kept up — against the cold
and wind in winter, the sun in
summer and the rain which came
at all seasons. This was along
about 1914.
During vacation that year or
maybe it was even later than
1914, I visited relatives in Clay
County, Ark., and Uncle Frank
drove a buggy. It was sporty af-
fair — no top, the wheels a bright
yellow.
In 1919 when I went to Piggott
to edit the Banner, Lon Voncill
drove a horse to a cart, really a
racing sulky, drawn by a mare
which was the champion trotter
of the county-fair circuit.
In November 1920, I stepped off
the train in Laredo and there were
at least a dozen horse-drawn vehi-
cles, with shouting drivers.
Now about the only time you
see a horse-drawn vehicle is in a
parade. Hot Springs, Ark., has one
or two carriages for the tourist
trade; it is quite the thing to have
your picture made in the victoria,
I believe it is. Nuevo Laredo, Mexi-
co, back in the 1930's, had two or
three carriages — also for the
tourists, and still may have.
These days, we still speak of
horsepower — but it is produced
by gasoline.

What a Difference
A Sole Makes
ESPECIALLY'when it's a gen-
uine spring-action RIPPLB
Sole. This new sole, said to
be "the greatest shoe improve-
ment in 2,000 years" (Reader's
Digest), is just the thing for
people who spend a good deal
of time on their feet. It absorbs
heel shock, reduces foot fa-
tigue, balances the weight and
£ives all day comfort. Available
In men's, women's and chil-
dren's casual, dress, and work
styles.

Role of Evaporated Milk in Infant Feeding
Photo by Carnation Co.
■ •••••"'•' • • . m v;mm,..*
There are many advantages in using evaporated milk in
babies' formulas. Doctors have recognized these points for
many ye.-irs, and have recommended this form of milk to get
jnfantr: off to a healthy start. Carnation evaporated milk, which
is ea-y to digest, fortified with vitamin D, and rich in all of
the valuable milk nutrients so .essential to a baby's early
months, is a brand preferred by many mothers.
Evaporated milk formulas are easy to prepare. Generally
the doctor's directions call for the addition of water and
often a form of sugar to the milk. The three ingredients are
mixed together, poured into clean bottles, sterilized by steam-
ing, and feedings are ready for the day. '
