and there may be quite some few in the republican party when a correct census is taken. It looks as though there was funny work going on among the makers pt law precedents. No advertising will appear on the bill board on Second street, which will in any way conflict with local business men or injure the community. The men who control It and Mr. Ehinger who (Hvns the ground are boosters for this county and city, have always been and will so continue and they wish to have that fact clearly understood as they have a right to demand. Picking out candidates a year in advance is about as uncertain a thing these days as we could imagine any one doing. Writers who claim to be far sighted are now indulging in that sport but remember there can be no guarantee of results. There are those who think Henry Ford has a chance, others talk of Al Smith, Senator Ralston, Mr. McAdoo, Cox or some one else on the democratic side and President Harding, Watson, Beveridge, Pinchot, Johnson and others on the republican side. No one knows what will happen in the next year but it’s a good guess that several things will come up which will turn the tide back and forth several times. Don’t take it too seriously—yet.
“1 like the highly purposed fraternity because it is our assurance against menacing organizations. In the very naturalness of association, men band together for mischief, to exert misguided zeal, to vent unreasoning malice, to undermine our institutions. This is not fraternity, this is conspiracy. This isn’t associated uplift, it is organized destruction. This is not brotherhood, it is the discord of disloyalty and a danger to the republic. But so long as twenty millions of Americans are teaching loyalty to the flag, the cherishment of our inherited institutions and due regard for constitutional authority and the love of liberty under the law, we may be assured the future is secure.”—President Harding in address to the Shriners, in convention at Washington, this week. The wages of plasterers, brick masons and other tradesmen in the cities has reached a breaking point and a recent demand for another increase in New York, caused the cancellation of two hundred million dollars worth of building contracts, according to news reports sent out. Discussing the subject and the fact that there is far too great a differ-
once between the wages und what the farmer gets, tlie New York Herald recently gave a comparison of the cost oi construction there, translated Into food at prices the fanuir gets. It is Weil to study the figures which however do not apply here: It takes 63% dozen, or 762 eggs to pay a plasterer for one day of eight hours work. It tgkeg 17% bushels of corn, or a year's receipts from halt an acre, to pay a bricklayer one day. It takes twenty-three chickens weighing three (rounds each to pay a painter for one day's work in New York. It takes forty-two pounds of butter, or the output from fourteen cows, fed and milked tor twenty-four hours, to pay a plumber sl4 a day. It takes a hog weighing 175 pounds, representing eight months' feeding und care to pay a carpenter for one day’s work.

That morning lameness — those sharp pains when bending or lifting, make work a burden and rest impossible. Don’t be handicapped by a bad back —look to your kidneys. You will make no mistake by following this Decatur resident's example. Mrs. Oressa Exley, 333 N. Bth St., says: “1 know the value of Doan’s Kidney Pills and cannot say too much for them. They have always been used in my family and when 1 had kidney complaint I tried them. My back ached and pained so 1 couldn't do any washing or other housework. Headaches and dizziness were constant sources of annoyance to me. My kidneys acted irregularly, too. I got Doan's Kidney Pills from the Holthouse Drug Co. and they were not long in regulating my kidneys and relieving me of backache.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Exley had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.

West Palm Beach, Florida. In addition to this splendid band, the most elaborate program that has been presented in fifteen years will fill the extra long t seagon from June 28th to August 15th. It has been Winona’s custom for the past few years to present one renowned artist. This year two artists of international fame will appear in recital. The first one will be Josef Lhevinne, the sensational Russian pianist on July 27th. This is the first great pianist of world note that Winona has ever offered. On August 16th Tito Schlpa, the most "taked of" artist during the past grand opera season. Schipa is rated by his tens of thousands of admirers as being artistically “head and shoulders" above all other tenors.
Motorists’ League For Countrywide Preservation With America's natural scenery just coming to be recognized as an important basic source of wealth the motor tourist is being reminded that he is not doing his share toward conserving it. Motor camping and picnicing can be enjoyed without defacing the scenery for the next fellow who comes along if everyone would refrain from littering up the ground with picnic rubbish, tin cans and papers. To help the motorist see that he's to blame for this nuisance which affects him more than anyone else, and to show him a public-spirited way to preserve the natural beauties of the country as seen from an automobile, a movement has been started under the name of the Motorists' League for Countrywide Preservation. It’s aim is to give the motoring public of the United States a new sense of responsibility, best defined by the Leagues's slogan, “Clean up as you go.” The National Motorist's Association, of Washington. D. C., one of the organizations behind this movement, is urging its members to pledge their support. No initiation proceedings other than the will to preserve the countryside are necessary. “1 will make every effort to leave the roadside in such condition that the pleasure to be derived from it by others is not lessened through any careless act of mine,” pledges the motorist. OH— —— Giants, Winning, Fail To Attract Big Crowds New York, June 7. —New York has always been a hard crowd town to figure. It is primarily an amusement seeking city, with assorted ideas on what is amusement. The same rules that hold in other big cities do not apply to New York. Professional football, which goes big in the middlewest, was a bust in New York, where it was figured that anything would get a crowd. New York supports two six-day bike races a year, and they would draw any more than a laugh in any other big town. Promoters who have been successful in New York generally work on the theory of “giving ’em a winner” in anything they like, but this does not always work, as is being shown now in the case of the New York Giants. Manhattan fans have turned away from the Giants and are favoring the Yankees with their patronage. Considering that the Giants are world’s champions and that in two world's series engagments they have made the

Yanks look decidedly Inferior, It is difficult to figure the change iu heart. It the main Idea la to look at the winner, the Giants certainly ought tp get more patronage at home than their American League rivals, because the Giants are not only the greatest team in the major leagues now, but many former players, managers and old fans regard McGraw’s present team as one of the best and greatest clubs of ull times. If the attention bad fallen off in the Yankee stadium as it has at the Polo Grounds this season, it would be plausible to figure that the New York fans were getting tired of championship teams, lifte the Philadelphia crowds! did back in 1914 when poor business forced Connie Muck to break up one >
