, J . "Putting It Across. "Putting it across" is a bit of emphatic Amer
ican slang that is a synonym tor success. The phrase suggests the meeting of difficulties, their
conquest, and a reward for the man who was un daunted and corageous enough to TRY.
Many failures are traced to lack of persist
ence in the -face of discouragements and disap r.Aintmpnts. Deals often fall through, enterpris
es are wrecked, business venture fail, because
the promoters lack the stamina , and energy to "put them across" despite the head ahaking and
pessimistic prophecies of, their associates, , A man who "outs across a deal", after strug
i t wunr mnnths is a htin. He has in his soul
the same stuff that immortalised a Washington
and a Lincoln. . ' Matrons at the Pennsylvania Station.
- For many years a matron has offered advice and counsel during the day to women travelers
at the Pennsylvania station. f Many an unfortun
ate girl has been kept on the straight track
through the efforts of this official. Recently the West Richmond W. C. T. U. and the Athenaea Literary society were instrumental in obtaining a matron to serve during the night hours. The officials of the Pennsylvania railroad, always public spirited enough to co-operate with a movement that will benefit their patrons, has placed a matron on night duty. Both the women. who initiated the step and the railroad company which crowned the effort with success, are to be complimented on their action. ; Social Center Movement. r ; Miss Grace King, supervisor of domestic science in the county schools, is active in promoting community centers in Wayne county. She is spreading the gospel of more cheer, greater happiness and 4 more contentment in the rural districts. The work she is doing is a praiseworthy one. Isolation has been a drawback to residence
in the country. By bringing the country nearer to the city, Miss King is contributing immeas
urably to the welfare of the whole community.
Suppressing Crime. A bandit robbed the Cook agency in the loop district of Chicago of $10,000, shot the treasurer,
killed a policeman, and so far has avoided cap
ture. .
The incident has stirred Chicago and has provoked the Tribune into wondering what the real
duty of the police department is. Editorially this newspaper asserts that too much attention is paid by the police department to regulate the habits and morals of Chicagoans and too little
time is devoted to suppressing crime. It asserts that policemen are assigned to dance halls, public gatherings, theatres, etc., while criminals are able to perpetrate hold-ups in the very heart of the city. The Tribune is correct in insisting that the real function or the police department is to prevent crime, to hunt down criminals and to protect the lives and property of citizens. When crime conditions reach the point they have attained in Chicago, it is well to call off some of the traffic officers and assign them to chasing thieves and brooks. Let the public protect itself at the cross
ings until the criminals have been placed behind
prison bars. '-',
. Tactics of the Allies. Grain and ' cotton dealers in New York are
calling attention to a nefarious manipulation of
foreign market news by European buyers so as
to cheat American; dealers regarding; the. actual amount of grain and cotton on hand in the coun
tries of the Entente. - -
Last September foreign dealers Wl reported
large quantities of grain in France and Italy, the
result' being that prices were kept down here for three months, enabling the foreign agents to make millions of dollars which should have gone
to American farmers.
- Now European buyers and their agents are
putting out a gigantic bluff regarding the great increases in production of cotton in Ekypt and India, in order to keep down the cotton price here. A New York dispatch states that in the last two years dishonest European speculators have obtained heavy profits by creating conditions in the news reports thatenabled them to buy grain
and cotton at prices that insured them rich re
wards. The dispatch goes on to say:
. "Neither Egypt nor India are in position to
add materially to their cotton or grain produc
tion, and this news of: large increases on these
countries is pure and unadulterated buncombe.1
Tactics of this kind are bringing the allies in
to still greater disrepute in this country. The
mendacity of British diplomacy is an open book. That its grain and cotton brokers should indulge in the same reprehensive practices is deplorable.
Strayer Loyal to Parents ' Afew days ago Frank Strayer's father com
mitted suicide. The false impression has gotten abroad that he refused to aid his father and that because of this refusal the father ended his life. Frank Staryer is innocent of the charge. Not he but his father is to blame. Here are the facts in the case. For years Frank Strayer has been the support of his father and mother. He has mortgaged his own household furniture, sold a lot, borrowed money at high rates of interest to keep his father and mother from becoming paupers. On the day that his father ended his life, Frank Strayer tried to borrow money several places to pay the house rent that was past due. He was unable to get the money. It was not because Frank Strayer refused; the money, but because he did not have the money and could not get the money, that the request of the father could not be met. Few, if any, young men in the city of Richmond can point to filial devotion as sincere and
loyal as that of Frank Strayer. Handicapped because he had no education, Strayer set out to
educate himself and at the same time assist his father .who was one of those unfortunates that
cannot fight life's battle successfully. Not only
once, but dozens of times, young Strayer stepped in and paid the house rent, paid doctors' bills,
met the grocers bill, bought clothing for his
younger brothers and sisters. Frank Strayer
kept himself poor that his parents and his broth
ers and sisters might not starve. Inquiry shows that Strayer's credit among the merchants is
good. . ...
Strayer could not read nor write until he was
11 years old and since that time has educated
himself to the place where he is recognized now
j by the members of the Wayne County Bar as a
very capable lawyer. ,
1 There are many tragic elements in the career
of Strayer. He has fought a hard fight against
overwhelming odds. So far he has conquered them. Now is the time when Strayer's friends want to rally to his support. A boy that sticks to his parents through thick and thin and at frightful sacrifices to himself has heroic qualities in him The community ought to know the manhood that dwells in Strayer's soul. A young man of his calibre ought to couraged. He deserves all the success that be encouraged. He deserves all the success that comes his way.

Editor Palladium: While there has been a kick on some of the rural routes about poor mail service, we have some room to kick on the hack service on the East Side It's practically the same. Last fall our trustee went to the expense to buy two new hacks and repair the third one for the West aide, while we on the East side have practically none at all. We have an old carriage hauling part and leaving the balance to walk or get there the best they can through the mud, snow, rain or shine. Well, they go Just the same. Now we understand the owner of this carriage gets $90 per season. Well, that helps some but the question Is does this side of the township deserve a good sanitary hack hauling all of the children or does it not. When you ask the trustee in regard to the hack his reply will be that the county superintendent will not let him or that the attorney say leave It alone. Well ve see by the report the trustee draws bis pay. W congratulate him on that part We don't want him to lose. Now when it comes to putting the blame on . the attorney we all know what he is out for so we will leave e)'m out at present. Then when he Uys that the county superintendent.
won't leave him, that Is another question we don't understand. We have better faith In our county superintendent than to think he beUsves in partiality among little children being hauled to and from school. If he has anything to do with It all. Now, Mr.. Superintendent must r a terrible man if be is to blame for all that is thrown on him but we still have good faith in him yet. Now facts are facts and we think if any one should have a square deal it' should be little children Just coming up in life and going to school. A SUBSCRIBER.
