THE- East Chicago woman, who wrote us a terrible letter condemning oar etupid war predictions, should take heart; a Milwaukee man, aged 39, has Just cut a wisdom tooth.

THE MAJORITY DON'T WANT IT. The Herald la not In sympathy with the attempt to postpone the constitutions.1 convention in Indiana "on account of the war." People are not so busy thinking about the war that they cannot think about ' the constitution. On the contrary, more people are enthusiastic for the good of the commonwealth now than in times of peace Laporte Herald. Well, it they are not thinking about the war they ought to be. The Herald's logic is specious. The good of the commonwealth ought to be subordinated to the good of the nation. The nation's business is war. Its business these days is dpfeating Germany. The United States wants to see Germany whipped and whipped good. This is war time, not politicians' time. We believe the majority of the people of Indiana outside of the Lapps and the Tliiemea and such newspapers as the Herald are la favor of fighting Germans, Austrians and Turks next winter and spring instead of fighting politicians.

soldiers to war, which means death to many of them, since we empower him to order the navy to certain destruction should the situation require it, and since we propose to make him an economic dictator, the New York World sees no reason why wc should object to the censorship Mil. Says the World: ' ' 1 It is for this reason tha The World has been less exercised over the so-called censorship provision of the Webb bill, which was defeated in-the House yesterday, than many of its contemporaries. We are not worried about the authority which would enable the President to proclaim that certain classes of informatiop should not be published, when this authority is limited by the provision that "nothing in this section shall be construed to limit or restrict any discussion, comment or criticism of the acts or policies of the government or Its representatives, or the publication of the same." The World misunderstands the attitude of a large part of the press and the public. While it is not believed President Wilson would misuse the power proposed under tho censorship bill, there is no assurance to what lengths zealous subordinates might go. An official Handy Andy might easily Imperil the right of free speech and free press by a fanatical Interpretation of the law. Also we must remember our president is a very busy man and he could hardly be expected to mount guard over the rights of the press in defending it from subordinates eager to "enforce the law." In England the censorship has brought disaster and we want none of It here. The American press is patriotic and will abide-by the government's, wishes, but it wants no gag law. In using the wide Influence of his newspapers. Editor Hearst has put up a forceful fight to preserve the integrity of free speech- In our small way we propose to stand for our constitutional rights if we have to go to Jr.il for it.

THE OLEO TAX. The Muncie Press seconds the Newcastle Times' suggestion that Congress remove the ten-cent tax from butterine, asserting it would help out" people in these days of fancy costs for food. We have to inform both our contemporaries that congress last winter provided that after July 1, 1917, the ten-cent tax should be reduced to two cents. At the time we registered the proposal that congress might as well let the tax stand and permit the government to continue to get the benefit of it, for we really believed then and do now that the consumer will never know that the tax has been cut at all. Just wait and see if we aren't correct in our guess.

AVERTING INFANTILE PARALYSIS.

A writer in the Good Housekeeping Magazine for May treats of the prevention of infantile paralysis, which ravaged the East so extensively last year. It is hoped the scourge may be downed this year. About the most important advice the writer has is that the hands be washed thoroughly before preparing food and eating it. This is a good point. One of the chief reasons why typhoid has been banished from the army is not so much of screens, safe water and prophylaxis, but because army surgeons strictly enforce the rule that cooks scrub their hands each time before touching food and that soldiers must wash their hands before mess. This is one of the chief preventatives of typhoid that can be found. Infantile paralysis, like typhoid fever, can be reduced to a minimum when the ordinary rules of hygiene are observed- Despite all the care that Is given to getting pure water and clean milk, perhaps one of the chief of the reasons why typhoid and other diseases crop out is because of the failure to recognize that soap, water and a hand brush used before eating or, more important, before preparing food, is one of the best instruments against sickness there is-

GIRLS' DRESS. By Anabel Worthington. Heady for any emergonry is the junior girl if she in dressed in such a tmart little

irocK as ISo. S.300. The etrairtt, loose lines are particularly good for the alight, undeveloped figure. The waist is in the popular Eton jacket effect and fastens at the rent re front, with groups of acorn buttons for trimming. The square pockets serve a double purpose, being useful as well as ornamental. The collar square in back and with deep points in front is a style that is generally becoming to youth. Whether the elbow sleeves or the longer onee are used is a matter for individual decision. The straight, one piece skirt is gathered to the upper part around the back and sides as far ss the pockets, and the front is left without fulness. The dress pattern, No. 8,300, is cut Jn sizes 4 to 14 years. As on the figure, the 8 year size requires 3 yards of 27 inch, 2 yards SO inch or 2V yards 40 inch, with yard contrasting material. f If made as in the bnck view the dress requires 2 yards of 36 inch material. To obtain this pattern send 10 cents to the office of this publication.
