RANDOM THINGS AND FLINGS
THE PRESIDENTIAL TRIP. ; Mr. Taft should have stayed at home. Hla trip has done him no good. It doesn't matter where he goes, he is confronted with factional feeling. When a progressive gets his ear, the insurgent bolls and when the insurgent basks in the Taft smile, the standpatter growls ominously. The writer has met many republicans in Missouri, Kansas and Iowa lately who deprecate the presidential junket. . They like Mr. Taft, but they regret that he felt it necessary to leave Washington. What the president has to say on these grave questions of public import would sound much better if they came from Washington instead of Coon Hollow, Kansas or Punkin Corners, Mo. -..f It rather strips the office of dig nity, which old-fashioned people like to see there when the chief executive of the nation has to hop-skip over the land at breathless speed to make speeches. Mr. Taft's enemies are ready to take a crack at everything he says. All his actions are distorted. People are actually beginning to make fun of Mr. Taft. The president was to speak at a convention some time ago, but until a few minutes before he entered the hall he had thought of no subject. His eye fell upon the sign at the door Push and he determined to make that his theme. "Young men," he finished, "let your motto always be that word which is on the door. Let that raise you to a position of trust, and that only!" As all eyes were turned to the place designated a rapidly growing chuckle could be heard over the room. The sign on the inside read "Pull."
TOBACCO trust is going to boost the price of cigarettes. Mercy! SOMETIMES, but not this year, September proved to be 'one of the hottest months in the year. DON'T know which is the hardest work, sticking to the job or rushing out of the city to get away from it.

pessimist is broke, while the average
optimist has cash in hand.
LAFOLLETTE S presidential boom
seems to have a shocking case of frost bite. This early bird business isn't
what it is cracked up to be.
tha philosophy of happiness, and the mental and moral and physical value of
a smile.
But there la one argument for smil
ing that I don't remember to have heard much used and that Is the prettlness-value of a smile.
Po the corners of your mouth natur
ally droop down?
If they do, go and stand In front
of a mirror, and prop them up with your fingers ever so slightly, and see
f your whole face does not become not
only pleasanter but prettier.
I think It will, for the prettlness-
value of a. pleasant expression, is not
ust In its temporary lighting up of a
face It Is also the mould in which It leaves the face that counts the most.
The homeliest girl I know is one
whose discontented disposition has drawn down the corners of her mouth and whose habit of continual frowning
has marked two sharp wrinkles between her eyes. In other details of appearance she is not particularly blessed, but without these disfigurement she would be simply ordinarily plal. With them she la as I before
remarked the homeliest girl I know.
I have no doubt at all but that the
majority of people more thoroughly enjoy gazing at a homely, pleasant face, in which the corners of the mouth are turned up and there are no frown
GOVERNOR'S ACTION JUSTIFIABLE.
As the chief executive of the state of Indiana, Governor Thomas R. Marshall recognizes his responsibility to the community in the enforcement of . the laws of the state. Accordingly he has recommended to Judge Van Fleet the appointment
of Attorney Samuel Parker of South Bend to act as the governor's special
prosecutor in the Gary graft cases. The fact can not be overlooked that this is a direct slap at Prosecuting Attorney Charles E. Greenwald. If the governor had been convinced that these cases would have been vigorously and efficiently prosecuted he certalnly would not have taken the action he did. But there are a train of circumstances which warrant the governor In taking this action. Greenwald refused to prosecute Knotts in the election conspiracy cases. It was necessary for the court to appoint William J. Whinery to try these cases and the county appropriated $1,000 for his fee.
A few months ago Greenwald moved from Whiting to Gary where It is reported that he has been on terms of intimate friendship with the mayor - of Gary. When the question of approving the affidavits against the Gary officials In these graft cases was put up to Greenwald he is reported to
have first declared that he would not approve them and later to have re
. luctantly agreed when it became evident, that they would be approved by
the court if the prosecutor did not do so.
j . When the cases came up before .Judge Van Fleet on the arguments for
' a change of venue from the county, Prosecuting Attorney Charles E. Green-
wald is reported to have been indifferent as to whether or not the chance
was taken, while Special Prosecutor Hodges, for the state, was making a
gallant fight to prevent the change.
If the governor has been made cognizant of these facts there is little
wonder that in the interests of law and order he recommended the appoint ment of Attorney Parker and asked Judge Van Fleet to approve it.
The governor Is convinced, Just as most of the citizens of Lake county
are convinced, that Greenwald is not In sympathy with the prosecution of
Knotts and the rest of the Gary officials. Had Greenwald really been de
sirous of vigorously prosecuting these cases he might have appointed Ralph W. Ross, the man who has successfully tried many of the big criminal cases,
to take special charge of the Gary prosecutions.
Greenwald is about to retire from office and apparently Is indifferent as to the outcome of the present prosecutions. Ross is a candidate for the nomination for prosecuting attorney, a criminal lawyer of recognized ability
and has the incentive to get into these cases and make a record for him
self. Greenwald should have withdrawn from the cases and appointed a
man who has everything to gain and much to lose depending upon the out come of the trial.
Attorney Hodges, of course, is also a candidate for the nomination for prosecuting attorney and is expected to put up a gallant fight for the state, but he ought to have the assistance of a good conscientious man from the prosecutor's office. The governor seems to be pretty well acquainted with the situation in Lake county and his action in appointing Samuel Parker to aid in the prosecution of these cases, will meet with the approval of those who want to see the state's cases backed up by the same array of legal talent that has been brought to the support of the defense.

The Evening Chit-Chat By RUTH CAMERON
Moving Pictures Bring her Home
I have heard a good deal lately about wrinkles, and where the sun of smiles
oiien snines, than at a prettily featured face, marred by frown wrinkles and an unhappy mouth. Surely a pleasant day in an ordinary locality is more beautiful than a drizzly rain in the loveliest spot on earth. So don't be too serious don't think penslveness is pretty or pouting attractive. They are allowable to some slight extent, of course, but only in aufflciet quantity to help us appreciate the smiles. There would be no high lights in the pictures If there were no shadows we would not half appreciate sunshine if there were no cloudy days. Of course, you don't want to smile all the time, but I don't think there is any danger of that. I never knew but one girl who smiled too much, and I think she was feeble-minded.
uont forget that pretty coloring and regular features make up only two-thirds of beauty these are the body and mind of beauty its soul is
expression.
Ana an attractive expression is not
only that which reflects the animation of a lively mind, and mirrors the sweet
ness of a lovely soul, but that which
often warms and gladdens us with the
sunshine of smiles. RUTH CAMERON
