St. Patrick’s day in the raarnin’ even though it looked more like Christmas eve if you took a stroll last evening. If the weather doesn't change’ considerably in the next few days, that gay young Miss Spring is likely to lave her knees frosted when she appears in the 1926 styles and she’s due An four days. . Never mind the present signs of winter. They will slip away soon and spring will be here. This is a good time to plan for what you will do when the blue birds comes and there are a number of things that should help make this a better community. Candidates are announcing and more than that they are busy seeing the voters. The next six or seven weeks will be busy ones for them and your duty is to aid in the selection of the best ticket possible. We need good men in public office, men who will serve you courteously, honestly and ably. As a voter you have an important duty. Measles, flu and pneumonia are taking a large toll of life in Indiana these the report from one county. Monroe, showing twenty-one deaths in eighteen days. If you have a cold, don't fool with it. Get some medicine and lick it before it reaches the stage where pneumonia is a possibility. Its a dangerous thing to just let go. The senate election committee certainly detests Senator Rrookhart. republican, from lowa, who was quite a figure in the farm bloc. They have reported that Daniel Steck, democrat, defeated him by 1,420 votes. That don't happen often, as for instance in the Willoughby-Denton case in Indiana. Its not that they love Steck so much, but Brookhart less. When they fool with the stand pat buzz saw, they usually get hurt. A hundred more will be indicted by the Cleveland federal grand jury in the gin conspiracy, it is announced, and a lot of fejlows who thought they were so solidly entrenched that they couldn’t be molested are now trembling in their shoes. It is claimed that for a year and a half this gigantic organization has secured from the government 50.000 gallons of gin per week, all of which was converted into beveridges for the commercial trade. Any way we claim they were no "pikers." Not often can we “eat our cake and have it too,” but Spartanburg county, South Carolina, has performed such a feat. Seven years ago that county built a number of miles of asphalt roads, using a four-inch concrete base with a two-inch surface. Recently under a new law the state took over certain roads and in doing so reimbursed th e counties according to the valuation of experts. In Spartanburg county they found these roads so good that the value placed on them was SIO,OOO higher than the original cost. A lawyer in New York City wrote his brother who is head of a New York state country bank, in regard to the use of government printed envelopes by the bank. He said: “I know their convenience and doubtless I

> > they are cheaper, but In these dayt * when the various classes of industry and business realize the necessity of fighting against the further encroachment of the government and state into business, it is rather inconsistent for a bank, or any other business, to encourage government competition with i its own citizens. So far as the envelopes are concerned, the govern- . ment is in the business tax free; and if it can manufacture, sell and distribute envelopes in competition with private enterprise, which must pay the taxes to maintain government, there is no good reason why it should not invade other fields of business. ' Each industrial function taken over ' in the name of the government adds ' An increased tax burden on the private citizen and property owner. I think that when the present supply of government envelopes is exhausted, 1 we should purchase our envelopes 1 from a private printer who pays taxes ' to maintain our government, even if it makes us lick our own stamps and ' causes us to pay a little more for the printing. Think It over.” ————— 1 This world in which we live has ’ changed so materially in the last few 1 years that many of our viewpoints 1 and judgments have had to be revised. The rapid strides of transpor- ' tation and communication have given * us new neighbors. No matter what anyone may say, science is so comI pressing the world that we as a nation, cannot isolate ourselves. It is too small for us to be isolated from each other, and avoid irritation through want of contact. Why talk of isloation when the people of Berlin, Chicago, New York, London and 'Paris danced to the music of the same orchestra on New' Year’s night? ’ We have got to learn whether we want to or not, how to live together under these changed conditions. New problems must be solved. One of the first steps, and it does seent the logical one, is to provide the machinery to get facts on these problems and eituations. Such an agency is the 4 Walter Hines Page School of International Relations. When this organization is started next fall at Johns i Hopkins University it will probe world } affairs with the object of ascertaining the facts. It will do in its field r what graduate schools have already done for medicine and law —provide a more systematic method for the f study of international relations and ( better trained men to deal with international problems.—The Manufacr turer.

You are lonely and you miss him, and you mourn him now he's dead. But to spare you all the heartache, would you call him back again? Would you want him here to suffer all life's misery in your stead? Would you buy your days of comfort w ith his hours of : ndless phin? It was sweet to have him will, you, and it's often now- you moan. But would you have him suffer just to keep him for your own? Be not troubled by the notion Heaven is very far away. It is nearer than men fancy, it is nearer than they know/ And the icved ones who have left us every night and every day Seem to draw us nearer to them as
