Foreign Representative Carpenter & Company. 123 Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Il may be well to resolute today mid each day for a while to keep the resolutions you made yesterday. The longer you keep them and the harder you work at them, the better it Is. Hills have been intrude-.ed in the house and senate to place prohibit'on enforcement under a separate bureau of the treasury department. W e don’t know’ that this will improve conditions any but its almost a certainty that it cant be any worse. The holidays are about over now and we can all buckle down to bus-Rie-i without a break until ground hog day. It has been a wonderful Yuletide with splendid weather, the proper spirit and any kind of enter tainmetit you could wish for. In every city in the land, all kinds of liquor including wines, whiskey, < luimpiign and gin flowed on N ■ Year's eve. as in the old days, a cording to reports. The joke abo.it the Volstead law is the apparent intention of those in authority not to enforce it. We repeat that the most important , tiling for every community just now is better roads and we believe that every citizen can with profit devote a little tine.' to assist in securing them. Tin' state highway comn:: son has included in their program for tliis year the improvement of th' 1 Port Wayite road from here to the county line, provided we secure the necessary fifty font right-of-way. We anticipate no difficulty but it will >e i,i:!re some effort and some lime and a the contract will be let within the ■ next few weeks and there is consid crable detail work to be looked after let’s all pull together in this matter.

They are made, therefore, for noble ends. They represent a God given gilt Io man—these words, by which he may lift up or tear down; by which he may bring life or death; Dy which Im may give the world high faith or a. dark despair.

warned the world. —Wilmington Evening St ir. When the legislature convenes on January 8 it will do well to make its principal business the prevention of excessive treasury grants. Offhand. an outside observer is not justified in saying that no public co terprise is entitled to a larger sum than it lias had. but it is reasonable to assume that some of them can continue to operate efficiently without Jacreases, and that the legitimate needs of others will not require as much money as they hive had. A few years ago some of the higher institutions’ of learning supported by the state were eloquent in foolish promises that if they were assured >f returns from a tax levy of a mills they would have income to meet all j conceivable needs. They got the 5mill rale; now they ask 10 mills ami I l>i < ial sums for new buildings. These | institutions must be adequately and 'progressively supported. Perhaps i ’hey can show that the enormous turns now sought are necessary, but ' at least let us have done with the I persistent and blundering lobbies l heretofore employed ami ready to] promise anything for the future ini order to get, something now. —Indianapolis News.
