What the Social Service Bureau Does The public little knows the . manifold work performed by the Social Service Bureau. This organization goes about its work in a system tic
manner, courting little publicity, seldom breaking into print,, and withal performing a highly
necessary work m the relief of dish-ess, the social reconstruction of individuals and families, and the promotion of the general welfare. 7. fThe bureau is accomplishing the purpose set forth in -its constitution, namely, "to promote the physical, social and civic welfare of the people of Richmond." ' " The best proof of its endeavor to execute the mission for which it was founded is to be seen in the committee assignments and the work
which has been outlined for its members. For
the purpose of acquainting the public with the wide scope of its work, a resume of the duties of the various committees is appended:
. Finance and Membership To prepare annual budget ; to see that necessary funds are provided to carry out the budget ; to approve all activities
which involve the expenditure of money. Family Welfare Besides the caseconference held on the first and third Monday of the month
by the members of the committee, the following
exofficio members are present: Captain SaivationArxny and' wife, superintendent Union mission and wife, police matron, school attendance officer, agent board of children's guardians. The
better housing department of this division pro
poses to secures facts about the city's actual hous
ing and sanitary condition, in view of getting
bad conditions corrected, and to promote a-home beautifying campaign in the spring: . Child Welfare To study child welfare' condi
tions in the county; to hold child welfare conference, with well outlined programs, two or three times a year. ' . Health Under this caption are listed venereal disease clinic ; - baby clinic prenatal clinic ; dental clinic; public health nursing, which includes nursing supplies, including bed linens, layettes, bandages, etc., for use of visiting nurses; examinations of-children pre-school age; tuberculosis clinic; home hygiene. classes; health exhibits. The tuberculosis work to extend to the entire county, therefore a separate committee
pwith a representative from each township in the
county. , , Suggestions to the health division include: Health week; child health week in June, 1923, in co-operation with the child hygiene division, state board of health ; health pageant ; anti-spit campaign ; swat the fly campaign ; social hygiene films; clean-up campaign in co-operation with other agencies; use more milk campaign; tuber
culosis week, and to prepare charts showing
births, deaths, etc.
Red Cross Home Service To conduct work for ex-service men for the Wayne county chaj
ter, American Red Cross. Americanization Study of the foreign-born
population, for purpose of ascertaining number
of each nationality, length of residence, literacy, problems, and what is being done to meet them.
Even a casual glance at the foregoing topics will convince a skeptic that the Social Service Bureau has outlined a program of wide scope, in which it has enlisted the capacity and ability of many persons qualified to serve for the particular purpose for which they have been selected. , The bureau has long since justified its right to existence, while the steady development of its activities into new social fields demonstrates its progressive nature.' Miss S. Ethel Clark, who has been the general secretary of the bureau for a number of years, has earned warm appreciation for her service, as well as a reputation for her executive ability. This year's comprehensive program demonstrates a desire to serve the community in many ways.

By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can." "Take It," "Up" ASPIRES In the koran you will find this couplet: "I was as a gem concealed; Me my burning ray revealed." That which is hidden away from us, that which is full of mystery, that which is veiled from our reach ; in some waiting possibility makes strivers of us all! Our possible friends are passed unnoticed on the street, and most fortunes are dreamed away long before any effort is made to earn them into reality. But there they are your friends, your fortune, your fame, the chief desire of your heart, no matter what it may be, existing in form and only waiting upon you to initiate them into substance. Soon or later, there arises in the heart of every human being a great and unusual desire to be something more than the ordinary something higher than is represented by the average effort of the average day. ( And eo it is that there are those who leave beaten paths, old haunts, and unsatisfied desires, to blaze a path that fits their will. What you want, you will have to dig for not merely wish to have. But when you have dug and won, you will thrill with the pride of ownership. Only do not stop there. Know that greater thrill of pride which comes from distribution, from the giving away of that which you have honestly and enthusiastically earned. Every human being, at birth, is "as a gem concealed." And often it is only after long years of patient waiting that one's soul catches warmth from some "burning ray" within, telling one about one's Belt as one is and as one is able to be. If you want a successful career, you will have to go about it as the miner does when he digs for gold or diamonds. And your best friends must somehow be "mined," too! You will have to get below their surface and even do much of the real polishing of their gem worth yourself, before they will shine back to you and satisfy you.

IF SKIN BREAKS OUT AND ITCHES APPLY .SULPHUR Just the moment you apply menthoSulphur to an itching, burning ot broken-out skin, the itching stops and healing begins, says a noted skin specialist. This sluphur preparation, made into a pleasant cold cream, gives such a quick relief, even to fiery eczema, that nothing has ever been -found to take its place. Because of its germ destroying prop erties, it quickly subdues the itching, cools the irritation and heals the eczema right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin in place of ugly eruptions, rash, pimples or roughness. You do not have to wait for improvement. It quickly shows. You

By FREDKKICSi J. HASKIX WASHINGTON, D. C, Oct. 12. Off-year campaigns and elections are interesting chiefly for their bearing on the next struggle fqr the presidency. This is especially true of the fight now on which will terminate Nov. 7. It will determine the politiaal complexion of the congress and which party will control the official machinery of various states, and all that is important, but the big thing it will do will be to spot-light the men who will contest for the great prize in., 1924. In a way it will be the qualification ov elimination round of the presidential tournament. At the same time the general results of the 1922 elections will be accepted as indicative of the political trend throughout the country, foreshadowing what will probably happen two years hence. j If the Republicans regain control of congress and are measurably successful in tho state contests, they will look forward to 1924 with redoubled confidence, for they would regard this as an endorsement of the Harding administration and of the party's legislative program. On the other hand, if the Democrats should carry either the house or the senate, an'd if they should win in one or two of the pivotal states, they would have grounds for the belief that their party is about to stage a comeback. They would go into the next fight with a far more aggressive spirit and their forces that are now somewhat disintegrated could be marshalled far more easily into a formidable fighting machine.
Peculiarly enough,-while all Republicans are of one mind as to the desirability of their retaining control of congress there are differences of opinion among Democrats as to whether
it would be a good thing for them to
elect an actual majority in either branch of the rational law making body. A few Democratic leaders in sist that all they want is to score substantial gains in the congressional elections, leaving the Republicans
in control of congregs by the narrowest possible margin. This, they say, would not only make the Republicans solely responsible for whatever happens in a legislative way during the next 1$ months, but would also make it impossible for the Republicans to explain any failure to carry out their program by blaming the people to; electing a Democratic house or senate. These Democrats also point out that if their party gets control of congress it will incumbent upon it to make an affirmative record on which to go before the people in 1924. That is to say, the Democrats would be expected to pass bills embodying their views on the more important issues, and it is quite possible that they might get into a wrangle among themselves over such questions as the tariff, the bonus, ship subsidy, industrial relations, and the like, that would prove disastrous. Moreover, even if they could get together on a constructive program of legislation anything they might do would doubtless be nullified by the veto of President Harding, and in disapproving Democratic measures the Republican President might find it

easy to make considerable political capital for himself and. his party. Such may be said to be the views of the more cautious Democratic leaders. Other who are more militant insist that it would be a good thing ior their party to win every possible seat in the house and senate. . This element is willing to take chances on being able to make a record that will appeal to the people and believes that it will be altogether to the advantage of their party to be in a position to make it impossible for the Republicans to carry out their legislative programs. All this has to with the finesse of the great game of politics. By far the more interesting phase of the possible results of the present campaign is the development of star players of the game. Most Democrats who figure in national affairs and practically all t! expert political observers agree that the Democratic standard bearer for 1924 will emerge fiom the elections next month. Somewhere, in one of the important fights for a governorship or for a seat in the senate, a man will loom up, they say, who personifies the leadership of which the party is so sadly in need at present. There are big men in the Democratic party, but none of them is such an outstanding figure that he must be accepted as the party leader. Not even former President Wilson is to be accorded that distinction. Cox, McAdoo, Palmer, Marshall and Underwood are conspicuous by reason of their prominence in past presidential fights and William Jennings Bryan is still very much alive and In evidence, but it cannot be said that the Democratic stops, looks and listens when any one of these raises his voice in an effort to make the welkin ring. Nor will any one of them have an opportunity this year to demonstrate that he is a vote-getter. Democrats Who May Loom Up.
However, there are some Democrats who have splendid chances to show
their form. Senator Pomerene in Ohio may be said to have an exceptional
opportunity. He is a candidate for a third election to the senate in a state that is pivotal at all times and that is
of unusual importance now because it is the home of President Harding. Should he win, it would be a difficult matter to convince him and his friends that he is not the logical candidate for the Democrats to put up for the presidency in 1924. Former Governor Ralston, of Indiana, is another to be reckoned with. He is running for the senate against the redoubtable Albert Jeremiah Beveridge. Any Democrat who can get himself elected to the senate from the Hoosier state, and particularly one who can defeat Beveridge, necessarily

It's Easy if You Know Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets.
The secret ot keeping voung is to feekjroung to do this you must watch your liver and bowels there's no need of having a sallow complexion dark rings under your eyes pimples a bilious look in your face dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr, Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil to act on the lives and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years. Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel, are gentle in their action yet always effective. They bring about that natural buoyancy which all -should enjoy by toning up the liver and clearing the system of impurities. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are known by their olive color. 15c and 30c.

looms up as of presidential size. Of course Mr. Ralston has not accomplished either of those things as yet. Former Governor Smith, of New York, is in very much the same position. All he has to do is to wrest the senatorial toga from the Republican shoulders of Senator Calder to be in the running for the presidency.
Then there is "Jim" Reed, of Mi
souri, the stormy petrel of Democracy,
who won himself a senatorial renoml-
nation in the face of all the opposl
ion that the Wilson element in his state could rally against him. If he is re-elected he will be one of the big
factors in his party for many years to come. He may not be able to carry
off the presidential prize for himself, but he will have something to say as t3
who does get it.
There is perhaps less likelihood of the development of Republican candidates for the presidency as a result of
this years campaign. As matter?

that President Harding will be candi

Rippling Rhymes By Walt Mason
NO LAW There Is no law compelling- us tot read the books vre think are rot: so it! is vain to raise a fuss because euch books don't hit the spot. For there are, books for every taste, and we maychoose the ones we like; and It is vain our scorn to waste on Author Pete or Author Mike. There is no lawcompelling men to sit through lectures long and flat, so why assail with tongue or pen the evening's wordyacrobat? There is no law requiring gents to hear a sermon or a play, so it is vain to raise laments when to our homes we wend away. We mark the poet with his harp, and say he should be sawing wood; we like to beef and kick and carp, and punk things please us more than good. We go to concert or to show like martyrs who must bear their cross; quite well before ve start we know that it will be a total loss. But oh, it is a pleasant thing to roast the artists one "by one, to say such people always sing when we're not furnished with a gun. W're fussing knocking all the time, denouncin? things that do not please; the latest novel is a crime, you painting makes us think of cheese. Methinks if we were truly wise our troubled soul.; might find some rest; there is no law requiring guys to stand for things that they detest.

come apparent that his renomlnatioi Is not to be conceded. In eiher of such contingencies tho likeliest candidates for the honor would be these Republicans who make the strongest showing this year. Beveridge, in Indiana, who surprised many people by defeating Harry S. New for the senatorial nomination, may well be one of these. Pinchot, who upset the Republican organization's apple cart in Pennsylvania, may bo another. Still another possibility is Senator LaFollette who won a notable victory in the Wisconsin primary and who is not likely to stand on tradition or: precedent if he concludes that 1924 i a good year for him to make another1 bid for presidential honors.
