BARRING MARRIED MEN The flat owner who bars the baby has now been joined by higher learning as a discourager of matrimony. At least 'tis so in Evanston, 111., where the dean of the college of liberal arts which seems to be anything but liberal with its salaries has issued a statement barring married men as teachers in the college. He makes one exception to this ban; for a piofessor who has sufficient independent means may be employed. Otherwise married men need not apply, so states the dean, who says the $35 or $40 a week salary is too little to support the family of a college professor in the style it should be supported in Evanston.

WU1UUU I

We can't keep up this happy-go-lucky system under the new requirements of government without going broke. If government is to cost 10 billions a year, we must apply business methods and business efficiency. We must face about in our political methods. They have gone beyond a joke. They call for serious attention from all citizens. We can't go on as we have been going without a smash-

TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY. People were just beginning to believe that wireless telegraphy -was impossible. They were saying that eggs would never be a nickel apiece. i Women who wore only one petticoat were talked about. The "Divine Sallie" was making her "farewell tour" of America. People were getting their first good laugh out of the preposterous idea of practical submarines and airships , The automobile industry was staggering on its last legs. Thirty-cent porterhouse steak was called an outrage. Some foolish women were talking about demanding the ballot. Every man who owned an auto was considered a daredevil. Some darn fool was experimenting with radio. Haw-haw! American life insurance companies are abandoning: their European business entirely, which is another indication that Europe may soon have to go to work for a living. The authorities investigating the killing of Pastor Hall and Mrs.. Mills have made great headway. They have already discovered that both were shot. e e e e HAIL AGE! I am unafraid of time or age. Let the heyday in my veins The frivolous thrills of life And the hours of callow thought Depart. Only the craven fears bewail The flight of ycuth into the dim beyond The ripened fruits of life Are sweet to eye and taste And satisfy. Let the hunters of beautiful Seek for the real amid the unreal. Youth will be served But age is likewise served From fonts on high. William Bradford Dickson, e m King Boris of Bulgaria desires to wed a rich American girl. Being at liberty, perhaps Peggy Hopkins Joyce might oblige. Possibly Ireland has whipped herself into submission at last. No other country could ever have done it. e e e Russia wishes to "lift her voice" in the Turkish discussion. That is all R'.ssia has to lift. e e e Mr. Record of New Jersev. candidate for senator, haa bepn nlapd

WHEN LIFE WAS SIMPLE. Unless it has something to do with airplanes or motor cars or with the more, vigorous and spectacular games like tennis or base ball it is not likely that the announcement of a coming national tournament will get7much attention from us. And when we learn that the tournament in question is to decide the national championship in horseshoe pitching we are inclined to yield it even less than passing notice. In an age when we demand for diversion nothing short of headspins on the wings of a rushing airplane; when a game of auto polo is an ordinary occurrence only occasionally thrilling to us, and when a ball player has to be a consistent rome run hitter, we are not likely to wax enthusiastic over horshoe pitching. And yet, this ancient pastime is not without its merits. More keenly than ever should it today challenge our attention, for it goes back to a time when life was simpler. It carries us

to remote countrysides and lanes at a time when

of the town and the high cost of living in such a suburb, render the home life of the married professor miserable, his wife is either forced to go to work or his mind is distracted by worry over unpaid bilfs and his teaching suffers. It has long been contended that colleges

for women are unintentional discouragers o

now to work at their play. The game of horseshoes satisfied to the full the simple desires of a simple life. It did not take years of most exacting toil to perfect one's self in it; one improved with practice, of course; one may become exceedingly skillful at it, but the nerve-racking apprenticeship required for

matrimony, but it looks serious, indeed, when perfection in a game like tennis, for instance.

universities oppose it openly for employes.

IN DANGER OF GOING BROKE. Advancing standards of living call for an extension of all forms of governmental activity. We want the government to build roads, to look after our health, to go more extensively into education, to supervise various forms of business.' Year by year government becomes a more far-reaching social agency with increasing duties, says the Kansas City Star. All these activities call for large expenditures. Taxes are steadily mounting. The cost of government is becoming a heavy burden on every family. Yet we have not realized the necessity of increasing the efficiency of our public service as it becomes more complicated. The expenses of government until recently were so trifling

is not needed to enjoy pitching rorseshoes. It recommends itself to the novice and to the master; to old and to young. It stimulates an easy-going interest; its leisurely pace permits of conversation running into amiable channels of every sort. It is associated not with thronging multitudes jeering an opposing player or luckless umpire, but with individuals engaged in talk the while the happy hours go by. As such the game of horseshoes is a restatement of a view of life and manner of living now rapidly going from among us. We are glad that a national tournament is coming off in Iowa this month. It will be in some way an assurance that the good old times may be brought back occasionally.

THE situation in the Near East seems to be more of a mess than a situation.

Words of Cheer and Comfort If wife, mother or daughter is ill and you are obliged to be absent, what a comfort it is to talk home every evening by long distance telephone! Your own anxiety is relieved and your loved ones are cheered by the sound of your voice. "Station-to-station" long distance service, developed recently by the Bell System, meets situations of this kind exactly. Just call your home by number and tell the operator you will talk to any one who answers. When the call is answered, the "station-to-station" rate, which is about twenty per cent lower than the "person-to-person" rate, applies. You can then talk to all the members of your family, one after another, on the one call, if you wish.

Evening rates on "station -to -station" calls, which are about one-half the day rates, become effective at 8:30 p. m. After miSnight the night rate, about one-fourth the day rate, applies.
