Postmaster General Hays has announced his

decision? to resign. as Republican national chairman.': S6? shows commendable judgment, for tho post" office department 1rivhT require all his time. The average member of the laity is unable .to fathom exactly what is wrong with the post ' off lea "systeniybntf 3ie - knows that "the 'department is not functioning with the precision , which formerly characterized it. .... The American public believes that Mr. Hays has certain qualifications which will enable him to discover the underlying' weaknesses of his department and to -apply remedies. His ability as an organizer and executive of the highest class was' amply demonstrated when he assumed the management of - the--Republican organization. The application of his genius to the post-office situation may soon restore the efficiency that seems to have been destroyed under his predecessor. ' ". y "J " ' - , 5 . Mr. Hays, perhaps, would not have been criticized severely if he had decided to retain the chairmanship of his party, for there are enough precedents upon which he could have fallen back for justification of his course. But there are capablejleaders in the Republican party to guide its "affairs and Mr. Hay wisely decided to give hi3 full time to; a man's size job.

The State Legislature

Irrespective of the faultfinding propensities of some critics of our state government, the fact remains that the general assembly, which adjourned Monday night, was far above, the average. Both houses were earnest in their endeavor 4,u transact business expeditiously and to serve the best interests of the state. There was little, if any, indication of boss control, the represen

tatives and senators voting as their judgment dictated. ' . ' ' - '.The defeat of the anti-primary measure and passage of the home rule bill serve as illustrations of the desire of-the legislators to' carry out the will " of the voters whom they represented. In Tboth cases the vast 'majority of the 'citizens of the state had expressed their wishes as to the fate of the proposed legislation, and the general assembly; carried it out. , ' ... A large number of measures of purely local significance and minor importance were intro-ducedr--something that is expected at each session but the few freak bills met their deaths quickly in committee. - Even if many measures of major importance were not introduced, this is no reflection on the members, for legislation of this kind is not possible at every session f the legislature. Most Hoosiers are well satisfied to know that the general assembly refrained from enacting scores of measures merely for the sake of establishing a record. The state will not miss the absence of some laws that, have no particular bearing on the welfare of the whole state.

Settling the Philippine Question President Harding is losing no time in taking up some of the questions which his predecessor left for him to solve. The question of granting independence to the Philippines and of our policy toward-them is one that he believes should be solved as quickly as possible. Conditions in the islands are .reported to be disquieting, owing to rash promises of some American officials that full independence would be granted to the inhabitants immediately. The administration of affairs, which gradually has been turned over to the natives, has become chaotic, and many reforms instituted by Americans have been allowed to lapse. The chaotic" condition of political and economic conditions is denied by some Philippine residents, but the situation is grave enough to warrant an investigation.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can", "Take It", "Up"

IN THE END

I picked up a book not long ago called "The Wisdom of the Chinese" I have been reading it with a great deal of pleasure and profit, : . . ' There are many wonderfully beautiful sayings of those old teachers that charm and inspire. Here is one: "Leave all things to take their naturaL,course, and do not interfere." In the end, all things right themselves of their own accord. But when folks interfere it sometimes takes twice as long and sometimes they are not righted until the ones most affected have left the stage. This same wise man, whose name was Iao Tzu, wrote this: "Who Is there that can make muddy water clear? But if allowed to remain still;1 it will become clear of itself." . When f nee a man in a hurry to make money or to get some particular task finished, only to get into a new task and as hurriedly to pursue its end, I am reminded of the foolishness of all haste and of worrying over things that are bound to pursue their natural course anyway. How many times we come to the end of our day and review the instances of rash actions and unworthy movements, only to laugh at ourselves and realize the futility of it all. Somehow or other I have always had great respect for the quiet men or women, who think much more than they ever express so that when they do say something, they have given out thought in the shape of real food for the world to grow strong by. In the end, my friend, you are not going to find that your troubles were very real. v And in the end, you are bound to learn that you have missed much that is ready this minute to take you incharge if you will only drop a" few useless pieces of baggage and trot with lighter equipment. - In the end but there really is no end to the big mind or heart!

Health the Keynote to Beauty Beauty means so much to womenpower, social triumph, admiration and love. Beauty implies good health. Who ever saw a woman racked with pain, struggling with weakness or disease, who could be called beautiful?
