March came in Wednesday like a lion all right, all right, with all four feet on the ground. The first part of the day was not so bad, but a small-sized blizzard set in in the early afternoon and three or four inches of snow fell during the afternoon and early evening, while the mercury dropped to about 15 degrees above zero. The snow was still with us as The Democrat went to press and the mercury remains below the freezing point. Do not get an under-estimated idea of the “4 90” Chevrolet. A concern of $80,000,000 breaking into the light car class would scarcely offer an unw'orthy product. In its design, valve-in-head, in its construction throughout, it stands out alone. And itg performance on the road will be a revelation to you. And then you will ask, is it an experiment or has it been thoroughly tried? It has been built for three years and has held up most remarkably under most gruelling tests. Phone No. 365 for demonstration. — M. I. ADAMS & SON, Agents.

Responsibility. Responsibility! This is the new cry oil over the land. Great corporations and railroads are inviting the stockholders to consider their responsibility. Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce and other influential business associations are stirring up their members to a new’ interest in public affaire. Heretofore a few well-paid, selfseeking labor leaders have been the only ones who have actively organized to influence legislation in their favor. Now bankers, business men, manufacturers, clerks, doctors, dentists, lawyers, clergymen are all getting interested in public matters. And with the demand for women suffrage, women, as never before, are reading the papers, studying current events and watching legislators with a careful eye. The people are awakening to the fact that they have a voice In the making of our laws and that ft !■ time they asserted their right. Let us all put patriotism above partisanship. Let us put the cheap, self-seeking demagogue out of business and restore to statesmen the seats of the mighty. The demagogue must go!—Leslie’s.

“Bread Lines” for Birds. Suffering among birds that do not migrate South for the winter is caused by severe storms such as NewYork had some time ago, just as privation among human beings and animals In the cities follow-s a period of cold. A heavy storm in sections of New Jersey where the myrtle w-arbler has its winter quarters often covers up the bayberries, one of its favorite foods. Insects are few in the winter, and the warbler has to use a substitute, or a “Just as good” article of food. Hunger and cold are not felt so much among the birds now, however, for societies have established “bread lines” for them during the stormy weather. A warbler can get its bayberries at the societies’ counters, and then take a night’s sleep in the small “municipal lodging houses” op the trees. Nor is the use of the “bread line” confined to the warbler alone. Chickadees, titmice, finches, woodpeckers, tree sparrows, nuthatches, brown creepers and blue jays all forsake their pride in such moments of public stress and fly to the coops of the New .Jersey Aiidu> bon society and other “free lunch” i places to substitute suet, bird seed, chick food and sunflower seed for' their usual fare of caterpillars and insect eggs.—New York Times. All the machinery and space for passengers and crew of a new' Eng- i lish dirrigible balloon are contained within it, the idea being to overcome wind resistance.
