ELBERT BEDE’S SUNSHINE

By Elbert Bede

A state board of health says it is, necessary to keep your mouth shut if you 'would be healthy. Still, the American woman seems to be in pVetty fair physical condiiion. * * * Better keeep in the good graces of your home newspaper. Men may come and go but a newspaper goes on forever and you will want your obituary w T ell written some day. * * * You may not be able to hear the] most important things a speaker saysj at. a public gathering, but you can always hear every yowl a baby makes at the same meeting. * * * A San Francisco poet leaped into the sea because his vetses were not appreciated. If his example is followed generally the seafish are likely to be crow'ded out of house and home. * * * Tacoma girls have declared against the waist which shows the camisole. Not having any positive information we presume that the camisole repose inside the diaphragm. In such case it seems reasonable that the Tacoma girls have decided that what they show outside is enough. Their camisoles should be their own anyway. * * * A news item states, “J. I, Gordonlost his home and life by fire Saturday, but both were covered by insurance”. * # * t The New Jersey man who managed two wives in the same apartment should not be overlooked by the administration when an unusuallv difficult diplomatic post is to be filled. * * * > High skirts and low waists make good business for the oculists. Unimpaired vision has become of more than paramount importance. * * * It is peculiarly fitting, we should say, in view r of the fact that Henry Albers was convicted of violation of the espionage act while in a beastly drunken condition, that the Oregon ba'r association *ihould be raising such a rumpus over the possibility of his'cscaping punishment. . * * *. A woman is on trial for getting away w r ith four husbands, while many a woman thinks she could pick a satisfactory one from a much smaller selection. * # * A Seattle burglar stole a kiss from a sleeping member of the household and, as usual, overlooked a. large package of the same kind of valu-

ables.

* * * It’s the things that you do not tell that show how much you know. * * * A French doctor says that you are likely to bring on inganity unless you lie in bed fifteen or twenty minutes after you wake. Very little asylum space needed around here. ■* * * A child that isn’t.able. to remember a thing that transpired in school that day, readily absorbs conversation it is‘not supposed to hear and is often found repeating it word fot word a week or two after it took place. SMALL STICKS “To Keep The Home Fires Burning” Canning salads is wholly practical, except those of the leafy variety, say those who have tried it. A boxtop given roller-skate wheels and used to save that eternal lifting and tugging around of the scrub bucket has proved a big help to a Cuyahoga County housewife. Samantha Says: When the children have good manners, you can be sure that the mother is more than housekeeper; she’s a homemaker. Tell the kids to “comb’’ their teeth. This, say dental experts, gives the right idea on how to use a toothbrush The loneliness of the country woman ten miles from a railroad is nothing compared to that of city dwellers too proud to mqke friends with their neighbors. The old idea of slapping youngsters on the back and telliing Lhem to “stand like a soldier” is inaccurate, say posture specialists. “Erectness with ease is the idea,” they say. Sick of the same old pictures ? Measure the frames, and soon you’ll find some prints you like which will just fit. Rochester, N. Y„ schools have made warm dishes at the noon hour an official fixture. What has your community done?

THE COMMONEST MISTAKES ) Judge' McCormick oft San Francisco says those are the IS (Commonest mis-] takes in iife: ^ s ,/j To attempt to set up yotor own standards of right and wrong. To try to measure the enjoyment of others by yo^ur own.

i —- ' t

To expect uniformity of opinion In

this world. f | make aSlowances for in-

FRENCH protest trade Paris—Owing to the large number of foreigners doing business in France; as “French companies”, 61 emplqyers’ force every corporation to Uame/thcir directors and the nationality and address of each on the Official letterheads.

AL lowances

To fall to experience.

To endeavor to mold all dispositions alike. , Not to yield to unimportant trifles. ^ To look for perfection in our own actions. . r

To worry ourselves and others about what cannot bo, remedied. To consider a thing impossible that we cannot ourselves perform. Failing to help everybody wherever, however we can. To believe only what our minds can

grasp.

Not to make allowances for the weakness of others. To estimate by some outside quality when it is that within which makes the man.—From the Oklahoman.

SAVED $r>0 IN TWENTY YEARS Burton-on-Trent, Eng. — Thomas Hall, an inmate of the local workhouse, saved his coppers for twenty years, accumulating $50. Then he applied fr,r leave to visit friends. It has been granted. GERMANS WANT AIR BASE Cadiz, Spain—Application has been made to this city by a German firm for permission to build a huge aerodome to be.used for Zeppelin airships plying between Germany and Argentina.

Manure makes lean farms fat and fat farms fatter.

Returns to date on the summer culling drive show 231,614 Ohio hens judged for utility and 17,478 "killed as worthless. Farm culling demonstrations have been held in 67 counties, and attended by 50,120 persons. Says Sam: The most expensive type of fence is the one over which neighbors quarrel.

The man who thinks any stock that’s purebred is all right should read up on the history of certain European royalties. Pedigree means nothing unless backed by performance.

Soybeans are soil builders. Ever notice that the fellow who doesn’t v/ant to see the county agent is the one who never has seen him?

With scrub livestock, “multiplication is vexation.”

Nobody’s seed corn is better than 3 r our own, if you’ve a satisfactory strain, and will select carefully from the stalk.

Remember that a bushel of plucked ears holds two gallons of wate'r. Handle and store seed corn lyA hive of bees beats the best hired man you ever saw. It will work for you'when your back is turned, and while -you sleep.

ODD BITS OF FACT

An apple’s skin is one one-hun-. dredth of an inch thick. There are more suicides in China than in any other country. One pound of phosphorus will supply heads for more than a million matches. Snow has fallen only once in Cuba, on Christmas day in 1856. The oriental has more than 300 uses for bamboo. Sweden has the longest mile, 11,690 yards, and China, 705 yards, the shortest. John Wesley is said to have preached 45,000 sermons in 54 years. The planet Mars Is never nearer the earth than 36,000,000 miles. Paper was first made of straw and hay at Meadville, Pa., in 1828. Antldlsestablishmentarianlsm is said to be the longest word in the English language. ^ An authority on finance, after exhaustive investigation, finds that in the United States only one rich man’s son in 17 dies rich.

POPULAR SCIENCE if Machinery belts have been made in Europe of braided or woven paper, built up on cores of cotton, sheet metal or a combination of thread and wire. Nickel is regarded as one of the most useful metals, though it lacks the prestige of silver and gold. It is bright and hard and non-corrosive, and in combination with iron it has been In great demand for war equipment and for bridges and other structural work.

VICAR’S WIFE GOES TO WORK London-Rev. F. Neish, Vicar of Upnor, announces the departure from the vicarage of Mrs. Neish to earn money to send their son to a boarding school. Mr. Neish was ordained deacon in 1874. The net income of the living is $1,500 and house.

NOTED WRESTLER TO HELP BUSINESS MEN TO GET HEALTH

New York—Dr. B. F. Roller, heavyweight wrestling champion of America in 1913-4-5, is going to devote half of the balance of h;is life to ‘rebuilding overworked business men. Though he has a flourishing practice in this city, Dr. Roller has opened a health farm at Stockholm, N. J„ and is going to spend half of his time there rebuilding the inert muscles of business men whose good health, he says, is essential for the country’s welfare. CRIPPLE MAKES FORTUNE Wrexham, Eng.—Seth Lovell, who broke his spine several years ago, opened a betting office and took the bets as he lay on his bed at the open window. He accumulated a fortune before the police interfered. He has promised to retire.

PICK STEPFATHER Poughkeepsie, N. Y.—Two children of Mrs. Victora Zinn picked their stepfather, when it came to have a new father. The mother was in a quanda’ry when the two suitors of her youth sought her hand, so she put it up to her sons, aged seven and nine, and they made the choice. THINGS WE THINK

Things others think, and what we think of the things others think. The mosquito who punctures the epidermis of the grouch with his proboscis and makes a meal of the corpuscles must want to commit suicide. * * * Statistics state that twenty billion telephone messages were sent in the United States du ! ring 1920. Thei’e piust be an error somewhere—we found the line busy more times than that.

FISH POISONED Thetford, Eng.—Millions of dehd fish are floating in the river here. It is believed that the wate'r was polluted by acids from a factory which recenrly began operations. HUMAN SEWER RATS Vienna—In a great round-up of criminals, the police searched the city sewers and captured more than one hundred known thieves, including nineteen women. All the women wore black tights instead of skirts. COSTA RICAN MEDAL IS PRESENTED TO HARDING Washington — President Harufrfg was presented with one of tb' rf friedals designed by Costa Rica t:6 celebrate the hundredth anniversary of its independence.

Two persons paid four cents each and several from 12 to 25 cents each, • OUT OF THIN AIR Savannah—Savannah authorities are perplexed as to what to do with a bootlegging airplane found resting on the municipal landng field. Aboard we're eight quarts of good hooch, but not a member of the crew has turned up.

HELP BOOST POST-DEMOCRAT SUBSCRIPTION We have a suggestion to make to the live democrats of Muncia and Delaware county which, if carried out with the right kind of enthusiasm and concerted effort, will add thousands of names to the Post-Democrat’s subscription list. Our plan is for those democrats who can afford it, to order and pay for a certain number of subscriptions to this paper, to be sent to individuals who would be benefitted by the wholesome truths published weekly in its columns. There are thousands of men out of work in Muncie at the present time. These men are having a hard time of it finding money to buy the necessities of life, consequently it is impossible for many of them to take the paper at this time. Later, when the factories resume work, these men will not find it a hardship to pay the two dollars subscription price. The publisher is making a special club rate of $1.50 a year for five or more yearly subscriptions paid in advance. At the top of the editorial column appears a blank club subscription form. If you have interest enough in a worthy cause to do your bit toward enlarging the Post-Democrat’s sphere of influence, fill out the blank and enclose a check covering the amount required to pay for the number of subscriptions ordered, and mail to the Muncie Post-Democrat, ■ Wo will pledge you that every dollar sent in will be used in adding to our subscription list. Do you remember how you cussed during the last campaign because there was no democratic newspaper here to refute the flood of republican misrepresentations? Now is the time for you to do your part toward the establishment of a newspaper that will tell the truth to the people of Muncie and Delaware county. Without the undivided support of Delaware county democracy, no democrat newspaper can exist in Muncie. Without a strong newspaper democracy here has no chance to win in the coming city election or any other election in the future. -It will not cost you much to stand sponsor for the sending of the Post-Democrat to five, ten or twenty persons for one year. The republican line is already wavering in Muncie. The PostDemocrat has a campaign mapped out that will command the attention of republicans as well as democrats. Do your part. Mail it in today.
