EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES. Theodore Roosevelt said that extraordinary measures were demanded by extraordinary circumstances, and proceeded to compulsory arbitration in the coal strike of 1902. To protect the public from advancing coal prices, Herbert Hoover assumed personal responsibility for a method of price repression for which there is no authority in law. In either case the end justified the means, but why should means not be prescribed by law after 20 years of industrial strife which has frequently threatened to "tie up" the country? In the industrial world the extraordinary soon becomes the ordinary. A few years ago congress enacted a law to prevent a railroad strike. Later the government was threatened with another railroad strike but did not yield. Now a wage reduction ordered by the railway wage board sends strike ballots to the affected railroad employes. When congress was compelled to pass the Adamson act.Jt should have prepared to protect all branches of the government from future coercive attempts, and at the same time provide some method of adjustment of industrial controversies, so that the business of the country could not seriously be disturbed. Legislation is applied to almost every problem except that of industrial peace. If there were less politics and more business in congress extraordinary measures would not have to be taken by presidents and their secretaries personally, and they would not have to assume responsibilities that belong to government as a whole.

EUROPE MUST HELP ITSELF. Carlo Schanzer, Italy's foreign minister, who appreciates more than many v of his contemporaries the fundamental ideals of American purpose, expresses the opinion that the time is at hand when the United States will participate in European affairs. The hour, he thinks, has not yet struck, but it is at hand. Insomuch as that event waits, not on the whim of the American people, but on the resolution of events, (he verdict of Signor Schanzer is as useful and accurate as an other. No one doubts that this country has an important and even essential part in world affairs. Its concern with things beyond its own territory is as wide as the impulse of men tc liberal living; it could not wish, and certainly never has professed, an isolation which denies the brotherhood of republican principles. First among all nations it has proclaimed the theory that boundaries are gateways, not walls. Signor Schanzer has every means at his disposal to determine with accuracy when the hour of American participation is likely to strike. The foreign policy of ths country is a very open one; its position, on this, as on every other international issue, has been made plain. No sane statesman in any European country but knows accurately the exact conditions necessary to American association and the exact conditions which delay it. The United States is ready to help Europe, or Asia, for that matter, on a basis of world progress; it has no wish to play pawnbroker. Signor Schanzer probably has advices that Europe intends to make it possible for the United States to help her by sturdy measures to help herself. That's the first point.

Good Ice Cresiinni Es a. Joy
To put a spoonful of ice cream in your mouth and feel its cooling effect, is good. To get a delightful taste out of it is also good. But to get the cooling effect and the delightful taste and then also to know that the real quality the food value is there that is the supreme joy. Then you are getting something that feels good, tastes good and IS good.
ICE CREAM always has the quality the food value. Indeed, it is the richest ice cream made anywhere in the world in any volume. Now when you get refreshing coolness plus delicious tastiness, plus REAL FOOD VALUE you have something to seek for its fame and to ask for by name. And bear in mind that Hydrox-Guernsey is purest because carbonated. There is now a Hydrox branch at K?.mmond for the exclusive purpose of serving all northern Indiana with HydroxGuernsey Ice Cream.

FERRIS WHEEL CRASH KILLS SEVEN
A CITY MAN'S IDEA OF A PERFECT DAY. He ia called at 6 a. m. He goes back to sleep until 7. He rises and chases the neighbor's kids off the fire escape. He discovers that his watch is twenty minutes slow. He swallows a cup of scalding coffee and beats it. He dangles on a hand-hold all the way down town. He climbs up on his stool three minutes late. He adds up another man's profits until 12 o'clock. He hopes to meet some one who will invite him to lunch. He meets no such party. He lunches at a one-arm cafe and goes back to work. He gets through work at 5 o'clock. He inserts himself into a street car with a shoehorn. He sways on a hand-hold until his back aches. He tries to fight his way out when the car reaches his stop. He gets as far as the door, which slams shut in his face. He rides on to the next stop and walks back. He gets home and finds he has forgotten the knitting yarn. He makes a trip to a store in the neighborhood. He finds there is no such store in the neighborhood. He walks to some neighborhood that has one. He gets back to dinner at half-past 7. He hears from his wife that He must take her and the kids to a movie. He declares he will not take them to a movie. He takes them to the movie. He returns home and listens to the neighbor's piano player. He gets to sleep at 2 o'clock. He does it all over again the next day. Henry Ford's neighbors have started a boom for him for President, bat that seems like a drastic wav of retting him out of the neighborhood. HERE COMES THE BRIDE. There is something about this aelicious month of June that gives the average girl a yearning to lean over a gas stove all the rest of her life. ' No woman can explain this, least of all those who have been married several years. It may be the excitement of paying up installments on furniture and pianos and goldfish. There is, in fact, no explanation of brides at all. They just happen. Some of them happen several times. But the third or fourth time they eet no sympathy. The month of June is responsible for the growth and prosperity of Reno. There are only a few more months which have contribute!, among them being September, March, January, November, May, February, July, April, December, August and October. But June will always be given the credit. Back in the last century an old-fashioned society editor invented the phrase: "The presents were numerous and costly." They are still numerous, but ten-cent stores have been invented 6ince then. Brides used to look forward to a life sentence darning husbands socks. Now they use stronger language. The sock situation is grow ing rapidly worse. The " organist plavs "Here comes the bride" and all a certain party's friends hum "Here goes the groom." The happy event is on. Let us cheer the youthful navigators on their perilous voyage. Allthe ladies will please weep.

EARP HOME DROBLEM5 By MS. ELI2BETH A THOMPSON
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I know
that I have .made a terrible mistake, but I am paying dearly for it now, and I can blame no one except myself. Give me your best advice please. : A little more than one year ago ' I saw a man and fell in love with him at first sight. This man was i the manager of an office near the i one in which I am employed. I saw j him pass our office several times i daily, and soon got to the point
ot watching lor his passing. As the days passed byf I knew that I was falling madly m love, for the first time in my life. This man and I were never introduced, but
he often came into our office for
little purposes, and seemed to admire me from a distance. Days passed into months and months into years, and then one day I heard that he was being transferred to a town hundreds of miles away. My heart was broken, and I grieved myself almost to death. For weeks I have grieved and just feel that I am on the verge of insanity. Then one day I accidently learned at what hotel he was staying, and did a very foolish thing wrote him a letter. It was a letter which contained nothing which I would be ashamed for any living person to know. Yet, I am sorry that I wrote him. I should have known that if he had cared for me he would have written. But I had worried and grieved until I had no reasoning sense. If I had realized
what I was doing I am sure that
common sense would have comoel
led me to forget him. In that letter I told him that if he cared to correspond to address me at the
address below; if on the contrary he did not care for me as a friend, just to be kind enough to return the letter to me. About a week after he received mv letter I saw him pass by our office, but he did not even glance in at the door as he went by. But I thought he would either phon me or see, me later. He did neither.
and thus three weeks passed un-
eventfully by. Then I saw him pass by one day, a suitcase in hand. For several days I did not see him again. Then one day his former stenographer came by to see me and in a casual way told me he had married a few days before. I died a thousand deaths when I heard this, for no mortal has loved as I have. I love him even now . and cannot seem to forget him. I have seen him pass by with his bride and he looks as if he is glad he had hurt me. I do not blame him for not having cared for me, but I think he did not treat me with proper consideration. I cannot understand why he has not returned that letter which I wrote several weeks ago. Do you think that had he been half a man he would have returned it, saying that he loved and intended marrying another? Now I am wondering what I should do. Do you not agree with me that I should write him Just a line and ask for tho return of that letter? Should I address the letter to both the man and his wife and wish them a hap py married life? When I see them on the street, should I speak or just pass them by as though they were strangers? GRAY EYES. You had no claim on the man, not even enough to expect him to bother to return your letter. Do not write again because he has destroyed the letter without a doubt. Another letter would only compromise you further. When you meet the man and his wife on the street consider them strangers and
do not sDeak. Instead of being in love with the man. you are in love with an ideal created in your mind which does not exist in reality. You can 6top thinking of him if you really wan3 to. Doubtless you enioy dreaming about love and pretending you have found the man who meets your requirements. If you want peace of
mind, however, you- will control your, thoughts...
