THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM

AND SUN-TELEGRAM

Published Every Evening Except Sunday by . . Palladium Printing Co. Palladium Building, North Ninth and Sailor Streets. Entered at the Post Office at Richmond, Indiana, as Second-Class Mail Matter. jicmdeh op the asocitei pnnss The Associated Press Is exclusively entitled to the use Tor republication of all news dispatches credited to it or not otherwise credited In this paper, and also the local news published herein. All rights of republication of special dispatches herein are also reserved. The Cost of Government The cost of operating the government costs every family in the United States $325 annually. It takes about five billion dollars a year to run the government. These five billion dollars are, raised by the American people through taxation of one form or another. The fixed charges of the government likely are to remain, leaving the only hope for a reduction to come from cutting down the overhead expense. Thousands of clerks have been dismissed in Washington, but there still are about 80,000 clerks in Washington, as compared with 40,000 before the war. Every taxpayer believes that a five billion dollar government i3 too expensive for this nation. Heavy reductions in operating costs are demanded. President Harding has accepted the viewpoint of the people and is trying to make reductions. Government has become a very complex and comprehensive business. During the war our facility to spend public funds got the upper hand, and it will require stern measures to eliminate unnecessary expenditures and confine ourselves to greatly reduced appropriations. Mr. Dawes, director of the budget, will find his task of putting business into the government simplified by the general sentiment of the public that it is tired of a five billion dollar government and the heavy taxes required to maintain it. He need not fear the censure of the people if he begins to lopp off bureaus, commissions and

departments that have multiplied with amazing rapidity since the beginning of the war. The people have begun to compare service with taxes, and the expenses with the source of income, and thus have educated themselves by degrees to a realization of the fact that the only way to cut down expenses is by demanding that congress refuse to make appropriations. Every department in Washington should be overhauled thoroughly. Overlapping bureaus and departments should be eliminated. Extravagant methods should be checked at once, and the word economy posted in every office. The administration promised the people an economical handling of the government and the elimination of unnecessary expenditures without impairing the service. The thought will not down in the public consciousness that it is not getting true value for the money it puts up in the form of taxation. It is looking to Washington for relief.

The Value of Glen Miller Park The hot weather of the last two weeks has demonstrated how valuable is Glen Miller park. It has become a recreation spot not only for our own citizens but for hundreds of visitors from Indiana and Ohio cities who motor here to obtain relief from the scorching heat. Some of us think of Glen Miller only as a collection of trees. We forget that it is an ideal place to escape the torrid weather and that it offers unexcelled opportunities for picnics and outings. Many of our friends in nearby cities value the park for these advantages more highly than do those of us who live within a few blocks of it. The advertisement which has been received from the free camping site for tourists exceeds the expectation of the promoters of the project. It has been a long time since the city received as many complimentary notices as have come its way since the park was thrown open to travelers.

IVar Roy: Congress deserves the support of every loyal American citizen in its courageous effort to declare a naval holiday.

A QUESTION. An Emooria family takes the family

Sunday the dog was tied to the motor car during the services. Every time the choir sang the dog howled. It was a question whether to take the dog away to keep from distributing the ppace or stop the choir to keep from disturbing the dog. Emporia Gazette. CONFESSIONS OF A CYNIC. I believe the trouble with investigations Is that people lose all interest in them before they accomplish anything.

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

"THE VALLEY FARM" Before me is a lovely painting by Bruce Crane. It is called "The Valley Farm." Kor hours I have looked at this picture. There is something in it that walks into one's heart and lies down to sleep. The technique is most simple. The colorings are airy golds, redbrowns, greens, and blues. A farm house and barn are to the right. It is on toward the set of the sun. Golden rays of light are playing hide and seek with the mellow shadows that dance on the roofs of the buildings. Massed bushes almost hide the barn, while lace-limbed trees hover like the arms of a mother about the simple cottage. The time is probably autumn. To the left are four shocks of grain. The harvest is over. Hills rise gently on either side. The sky is regnant with tinted beauty. A rough path leads to the side of the dwelling, over which both men and beasts have walked. At one end of the home you see the dull brick chimney. No smoke now from it at all. Its serenity is that of the entire picture. I can see with my mind's eye, the old farmer and his helper sitting at their frugal meal, with perhaps a little tot or so, with bibs about their chubby faces, wrapping with their laughter the homely talk of the happy pair. How great is art, how transparent is beauty! I am thinking that when I get most depressed and when the day must needs call forth more rain than sunshine. I shall make of my heart a Valley Farm and thus stay happily within it until the light comes around again. And I hope that this is what you will remember to do!

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON

THE REDS The Reds will baror well and long at any fierce destructive job, to prove the government is wrong and turn it over to the mob. They'd like to undermine the state, and hope to do that much In time: their industry is something great when industry becomes a crime. But show them any useful task, with ample wages at the end, and they'll revolt and mount a cask, and make the welkin creak and bend. They're living in a country fine, where every man who toils and spins may have his figtree and his vine and dollar watches for the twins. They're living where the laws protect the honpst worker and his pile, and they would see the whole works wrecked, ;ind view the chaos with a smile. They hold to creeds absurd and vain, with hankerings for blood and fire; they are opposed to all things sane, to all that righteous men admire. And more and more we lately find their teachings spreading everywhere; their j ropaganda is behind uprisings here and riots there. And are we not the patient bunch? We see the Reds our laws defy, and Idly grin, though we've a hunch that worse is coming by and by. They bore us with their brazen sound, they weary us with ball and bile; the nation needs a dumping ground for those who do not like its s-tyle. Nine hundred and five spinsters out of every 1,000 who have reached the age of 25 live to be 45: 632 out of every 1,000 reach 65; 119 reach 85, and 8 attain the age of 90.

Letters of Gratitude

Eloquent language and illustrations in advertising may appeal to many, but after all it is the homely, sincere letters from women, overflowing with heartfelt gratitude for health restored by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, that convince other suffering women that there is a medicine that will help them also. Many such letters are being published in this paper from day to day, and it is to any woman's advantage who suffers from female ailments in any form to give this old fashioned root and herb remedy a trial.

MRS. T. N. B. When did Bryant write "Thanatopsis"? William Cullen Bryant's "Thanatopsis" was first published in the North American Review in 1S16. The title from the Greek, signifies "a view of death." The poem, written when Bryant was but 19, is in blank verse, and is considered by many the most impressive of his works. GIRL READER How early were thimbles used? Thimbles are said to have been found at Herculaneum, an ancient city of Campania, directly at the foot of Mount Vesuvius. They also were used by the Chinese at a very early period. Their invention in Europe is traditionally ascribed to Nicholas van Benschoten of Amsterdam in the seventeenth century. C. M.

EPSOM SALTS LIKE LEMONADE

If you want epsom salts without the awful taste and nausea, ask your druggist for a handy package of "Epsonade Salts" which looks and acts exactly like epsom salts, because it is real epsom salts combined with fruit derivative salts, giving it the taste of sparkling lemonade. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of cold water whenever you feel bilious, headachy or constipated. "Epsonade Salts" is the much talked of discovery of the American Epsom Association. Advertisement.
