Consciously or unconsciously we give much time to the search for happiness. It is hardly an exaggeration to say that many of the advantages of civilization are attributable to a desire of mankind for happiness or for conditions which will produce contentment. t The great navigators who discovered new continents or opened new trade routes were actuated; by both a love for adventure and a keen desire .to acquire in the new lands gold, raiments, foodstuffs and other material things whose possession would enable them to live in affluence and ease upon their return home. ; The settlers who crossed the mountains of our own continent to make homes for themselves in the great Mississippi basin believed they would

take from its virgin soil the means of acquiring happiness. , , The Inventor who evolved new machinery to save time, promote rapid communication, or provide new comforts and conveniences, was impelled, to. do so because the reward of his work would permit him to have ease and happiness. And all of us, in the shop or office, are' seeking happiness as a fruit of our labor, in one form or another. We seek it by different methods and along many routes, but all of us are in quest of it, in some way or another. 'We provide part of it ourselves, or 'we pay others to do it for us. : But few of us seek it in our own homes. We overlook the first place in which we reasonably would be expectedto find happiness. If we did turn our attention to our homes, we would be on

the alert to improve them, to make them so at-!

tractive and alluring, so comfortable and suggestive of ease and relaxation, that our thoughts would turn to other means only as secondary ones to this fundamental source of civilization. And so we wonder what would happen if we would make our homes better. Would we not become better men and women? Would not the civic relationship between families be improved and our municipal life take on a higher meaning?

The man who has a good home will seek to

protect that citadel of his happiness by an active

participation in civic affairs and community en

terprises. He would realize that his home is only one of the thousands which comprise the totality which is called.the city. ( Keep the source of pleasure in the home and you have a foil against the temptations that lure the young from the parental roof in quest of what seems to them to be happiness; let comfort, sociability, entertainment, surround the hearth, and the boys and girls will not readily be induced to seek harmful amusements elsewhere. A happy home will increase the diligence of the father, impelling him to apply himself with might and main to add other comforts and to make his wife and children contented, thereby serving not only his family but also providing the incentive, initiative, enterprise, and energy which advance industry and business. x And out of it all will proceed that true patriotism which is rooted in the home and makes out of millions of families a united nation of one impulse, dedicated to the high purpose of maintaining the priceless principles of free government. We may speak in fluent language of the necessity of all kinds of reforms, but, after all, the betterment of homes would bring about all these things in a short time. Improvement in the home life is fundamental, for there is the foundation of our republic ; from it emanate the influences that make or break, that advance or retard our national life.

Q. Were there many strikes in this country during the recent war? A. C. V. A. The official records of the Department of Labor show that there were 6,205 strikes and lockouts in the United States during the period extending from our entrance into the war until the signing of the armistice. It is claimed, however, that none of these strikes and lockouts lasted long enough or was serious enough to handicap our forces in France. Q. How much tea is drunk in the XTnited States? M. S. H. A. In the fiscal year 1921 the net importation of tea amounted to 71.486,507 pounds. This allowed for the consumption of .67 pound by each person in the country. Q. Are officers in the Spanish-American war and World war eligible to membership in the Loyal legion? R. I). A. Service in these wars in itself would not entitle officers to membership In the Military Order of the Loyal Legion. They mieht, however, inherit eligibility from fathers or grandfathers

who served as officers m the Civil war, or subsequently became officers, having been privates at the time of the Civil war. Q. IIow did the word "Dago" originate? IJ. H. A. One explanation of the term "Dago" is it is a corruption of the Spanish word "Diego", equivalent to the English name "James" or "Jack." The term was formerly applied by sailors to Spaniards, Portuguese and Italians in general. Some authorities believe that the word is merely a corruption of the nickname derived from "Hidalgo," formerly used of any foreigner from Latin Europe. Q. Can a porcupine throw its quills? I. U H. 1 A. The quills of' a porcupine are quite loosely attached to the body and when it slaps with its tail, as it does ' in self-defense, sonio ouills' mav be r-ent quite a distance. This is all the foundation there seems to be to the popular belief that the porcupine throws its quills at an enemy.

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

The first, thing to bear In mind when you go to borrow trouble Is that you have to pay back what you borrow. And who wants to be paid back in trouble? Every day I live I decide in my own mind that this Is a good world. I may he wrong in my decision but in such a case I shall willingly bear the responsibility. At least this is no world in which to borrow trouble. There is. aplenty without borrowing, anyway. There was a song which originated during the World War that I wish might continue to live. It was about wrapping up your troubles in some sort of a bag and just smiling! If you will try this out and then open up your bag, I will be one to venture the opinion that there will be no troubles there at all they will have leaked out! Bear responsibility, face the music, and play the game but give your working machine a chance to function without borrowing trouble. Borrowing trouble is much like borrowing money the more you borrow, the more you DO borrow, until you are enmeshed in troubles, every one of which looks like some Gibraltar in size. David Harum is made to say in Westcott's book of this name, that the reason why a dog has fleas is to keep him from brooding too much on being a dog. Maybe thai is like our having troubles for we each have plenty of our own so that we may not brood too much on being better than someone else, and may remember that we are, first and last, human. But so long as we have troubles, let us not let it be known that we have them! And then they won't be borrowed or lont. It was Ella Wheeler Wilcox who once wrote that the earth had to borrow its mirth but that it had trouble enough of its own!

After Dinner Stories When the Widow Mingus came into Andy White's store for her weekly supply of groceries the front of her dress was disfigured with splotchy bars of red paint.

watched the hriny for ages, from my coop; it's always still and shiny, and like a sea of soup; unbroken, calm, it glitters, save where some finny critters, emerging from the biters, emit a l'ishlike whoop. I've longed to see the billows in- wild commotion roll, while I sat 'neath the willows with my long fishing-pole; but, sluggish still and quiet, the sea, as,I loaf by it, puts up no startling riot designed to stir the soul. It scarcely even shivers, it stagnates, gray and grim, and I know Kansas rivers that have more pep and vim; with seaweed it is crusted, with seaweed red and rusted, and gulls that look disgusted along its surface skim. A long, long time I've waited to see this ocean wake, and now I know I'm fated to find my hope a fake; and while the famed Atlantic is prone to spasms frantic, and kicks up storms gigantic, this sea jams down the brake.

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today

That there was a decided opposition to bill boards in this city was evidenced at a meeting of the West Richmond Improvement association, held in the Baxter school building. The leading question discussed at the meeting was the undesirability of the bill boards, especially in West Richmond - Electrolysis was getting busy on the gas pipes of the Light, Heat and Power company's system again, and heavy losses were being encountered by the local company. Main street, east of the river, and west of the Main street bridge to the power barns, were the places where the heaviest losses occurred. The company was forced to spend large sums yearly to replace the
