KEED REMV1VUS. Th rncrn!nat!nn ?f Senator James A. Reed by tfc democratic voters of M!iOurl clll be hailed ly th hater of 'i:?on as a rtuk to his policies, ?pe!.i!!y the L?ue, of Natlnns, and a refusal to ftTpt his airo ard counsel In political affairs. 'They will Interpret as th rass!n of the Influence of "U"IIon from the ciunsel of that party. The frrds of TVlleon will attribute It to repuhücaji Interference, to l!rht -wines and beer, to orRar.'2"d machine politics of the worst type. I?oth will he wTor.ar, for his nomination Is but the triumphant recognition of honesty, courage, and elnerlty as th bals of a great personality. Men anl women of M"lsourl differ with Reed In h!3 Judcrr.enta. None there are who suspect his : hlh honesty of purpose, his Intense patriotism, h'.fl hold and courageous Americanism. The triumph of Reed is the greatest personal I victory achieved by any man of national prominence in a decade. Two years apo he waa literally read out of the democratic rarty, not only by the convention of his own state tut by the democratic national conventlon at S'anFranc!co. Red had led Mv fisht against the league of ! Nations In The senate. The members of the senate made r.o mistake about the center of that fisht. The republicans put forward the partlsanly Jealous Lodge as their spokesman, but the real aisault ujion the League In the eenate came from the lips and brain of Reed who dealt It the most effective of blows. For that fight, and let It be remembered that no ono dared hint that In making It ReM acted from other than the highest of principles, no on suggested that he wa inspired by personal malice or rartl.an hatred. Reed was kicked from his party. Vhen Missouri moved from the democratic to he republican ranks, literally thousands of democratic candidates for local office lost their .1obs. They resmted their defeat and blamed Reed, long the leader, for their misfortune. Rut rot one of these, even In his deepest of ' r.rger, eer charged that Reed did not fight because he believed that the. league of Nations would be ; disasterouH to American sovereignity. He knew, and no on better, that when he made that fight he was courting political death but that did not cans him tr hesitate. Reed hfifl never swerved when he believed that lio waa right. lie not not believe In suffrage and voted against ft. He knew that this was to Invite the opposition of women when he should again be a candidate. Rut the people of "Missouri also remembered that while Reed had foufht ajralnst many measures which were popular, had dared to often differ from h:s party organization, that he had always fought for the old and tried principles of Jeffersonlan democracy and that he was most feared by the republican side of the senate when it came to questions of domestic tTlnclple upon which parties differ. They knew that his fights were not venal, for they saw him enter the senate a poor man and remain a poor man. They knew most of all that conscience and courage are rare In a day when parts lashea are laid upon weak backs of those who merely vote and that honesty, too, is rare and precious. It is an open secret that the republican national - committee hoped and tried to assist In the defeat of Reed. They believed that such a defeat would mean the eaey election of a republican candidate, nd In the selection of that candidate, they gave support to a man who is not dissimilar to Reed In talent. In power of oratory, In his own lndependsr.ee of political action. Reed wen, to the voters of Iii party with only his pereorallty and hi record. The democrats of Missouri have voted for that personality. They have not voted against the League of Nations, against suffrage, against prohibition. They voted for Reed, the maeter orator, the nan whose conscience has ruled his political lifo, the man whose Judgment they might not accept on all issues but whose heart, they knew, wav eound and clean. ThosA who try to read repudiation of Wilson and the Isg-.ie Into thLs rote nr. ns hartly mistaken ts these who believe th rpAp'A nf this country do not place conscience above the. question of the hour find cour.ic above nil party labels.

WOMAYS HAPPINESS. Only women under fifteen and over fifty yeare of ege are happy, says a London psychologist, the latest mere man courageous enough to claim knowledge of the feminine mind and character. No a very Tattering picture, is the one he paints. Women In business, he nsirts are gamblers, rather than p!anr.rs. Thy a r looking for the one short snd brilliant flash of fortune which brings wealth and success. In their Influence on world and domestic politics of the natior-s in which they have a voice, he is even more harsh In his criticism that they may build hemes, but never rations. His theory of the happiness In the heart of woman is more scathing for he asserts that under fifteen thfir curiosity Mnds them to the eearch for knowledge and that after fifty they may have some Ideals which give content. In between, fays he, ney are dissatisfied and therefore dangerous. The mn who makes this analysis Is not a notoriety seeking charlatan but has a well founded reputation In h'.s own particular field of psyoholegy, It A profeesor at one of the createat of universities in the world, is known for his books and his writings upon th actlonj and reactions of the human Kind. What cJrcli cf foc!ety dees this student ef wo rnanklnd meet to be able to generalize In o broad & wayt W3t kind of wonia do as fc know and of wfcat

sort U he the confidant thit he should be able to j'asslfy then In gnr,il frms? Othe- Student. (rnial sociologists, have re:;urke1 the number of d!vit!.1, and discontented women between th ns he ;!,, but they have spoken cf the Hie and the leisure class r,f women. Their plaint has been that the inventive mind of mm has been turned to making life ?o eay for th modern woman, that the increasing congestions of citi's ii reducing hpr former realm of l.ome making, that the attitude of complacent husbinds has been that of giving the greatest luxury and ease and that women are finding life rather tasteless and themselves restless ss a result. The, others have traced such unhapplneps to l-31er.es. rather than to any fundamental trait of feminine mind. To most men, the comment of the psychologist will appear to be anything but scientific. For they will remember that most of the women whom they Vnow find their real happiness between the ages which he describes as dangerous. They remember their mothers and will be hard to convince that these women felt anything but happiness a3 they pave their love without limit to rhelr sons and daughter. Harplress is not a matter of age. It Ls very much a state of mind and of heart. It comes rnrough service and usefulness. It Is kept green by memory. It rest upon giving, rather than receiving. The modern woman is probably happier than her mother. The woman of the future will be still happier as she adds more of Independence to her mode of thought, more of equality to the service he renders to the world. o THE BANDAGE OF JUSTICE. Twico has a Jury, composed of both men and women, heard all th evidence against Madelynn Obenchaln, charged with the murder of a man who bcorned her and twice have hese Jurors failed to reach an agreement. Two other Jurle have also heard the evidence and also disagreed, the defendant In those cases being the alleged accomplice. That make a total of 4 8 men and women, voting In groups of twelve, who know all that can be known of the tragedy and who arrive at exactly opposite conclusions. The disagreement cannot be laid to any emotlonlallsm or sentimental swaying of masculine hearts by the pitiful beauty of the woman on trial for her life. Other women are Judging her, as well as men, and they cannot agree as to whether she be Innocent or guilty. Such cases as this one bring up sharply the question of whether the Jury ystem, devised years ego as a means of obtaining justice and preserving society from those who violate Its rules, today completely fills the needs of the times. It seems rather a foolish thing to keep on spending thousands of dollars in endeavoring to convict a man or woman charged with crime after the evidence presented fa!L to convince twelve men and women. It 6?ems a rather more dangerous thing to let down the barriers still farther and to permit those who commit crimes to escape by merely rlaylmj through shrewdness of lawyers, upon the doubts of f-ome few persons selected more or less by accident. If every perFon charged with crime knew that the mere convincing of one in twelve of the Jurors meant freedom, it is likely that the ethics of the legal profession would be even worse than they are today and that the convincing of one Juror would be a matter of dollars, rather than argument. rerhap3 the real difficulty after all lies In the fact that no one knows the absolute truth because no two persons ever view the same incident in exactly the same light. If four reporters are sent out from a newspaper ofTlce to the scene of a fire, an accident or a court rial, four different stories, varying in detail, are written of that event. A dozen persons, sitting on a porch, fee an auto accident In front of a house. There are twelve version of Just how It happened. The stories are not deliberately twisted. It Just nappens that the human mind is such that its reaction to experience differs from every other mind and that mathematical truths are probably the only ones on which there is agreement. When witnesses must inevitably differ, Is It any wonder that the minds of Jurors very frequently reach opposite conclusions from listening to the recitals of these witnesses? Possibly the Jury system might be made to serve If verdicts could be rendered by a majority or by nine of the twelve members. Certain it is that the present system, with its disagreements, its mistrials. Its heavy cost to punish the guilty and protect the innocent, leaves much to be desired.

ANOTHER PENALTY OF WAR. The nation 13 now threatened with a deluge of orators. It is a perfectly natural result of war, gays Professor Covington, of Princeton university. His explanation is that there is always a wave of public speaking in time of national crises and that the habit contracted by the Four Minute Men and other orators who epoke during the war, still clings. He leaves out the most Important part, which is some information as to when public speaking will again be "limited to those who really have pomething to say and when men who really do not enjoy long homilies on subjects in which they have little interest will not be ashamed to say so and forget their fear of being called unintelligent. Oratory loses lt power as the lervel of education Public speakers play upon emotion for their effects. Appeals to the reason alone through the spoken word are seldom effective as most people vill not stop to listen. Many hundreds of thousands of perfectly f.ne words are wasteJ every year In the United States sonate by members who r.cver chanre a vote nor rn opinion. The real speaker of today is the man who can tell hts story in five minuter in terse facts without the art of an actor or the tricks of a confidence man. The prize orator is the one who has a real message. Lack of audiences will soon curb the others. o Since gold was found there, nil isn't quiet along the Potomac. o

by the South Dend Tent and Awning company. E.ght o'clock came but no scree: car. And about this time an acquaintance came ambling down the street in a Ford roadster with a winter top. The man in the Ford slowed down and moved over and at on the door on the right hand side to make room for Mr. Phively. Our rotund attorney friend, with a glad smile, sprang for the Ford, but he neglected to take jnt0 consideration the limitations, of a Ford roadster winter top. He became jammed in the door of the roadster, and thU3 far Mr. Shively's friends have been unable to remove him. An S. O S. call has been stent out for Houdinl, and if he can't do anything. Larry Lan and his axe squad will probably have to chop the Ford to pieces to liberate Mr. Shively. Thu3 far, the predicament has caused Mr. Shively little rmbarassment. The family is feeding him regularly and he can do a few little chores around the house that have to he done; but the attorney has a case in court on Monday and he has to be untangled from this machine before then, a Mr. Shively would naturally feel a little diffident about stoing Into an august court of law with a winter Ford top hanging on him. It looks like a mighty serious matter! A group of business men were discussing the strike of railroad shopmen. Tom Hynes, president of the New Jersey came along. "How many men have you out, Tom?" inquired one of the chatters. "Roth of them," replied Tom. "Even if radio I3 Just a passing fancy.

SOMC CO 3 1 EI JA CK A! Dufendach, the printer, received an inquiry from a doctor who wanted bids on several thousand letter-heads, different sizes, grades, colors, and wanted the form held standing. The printer was slightly peeved and wrote back: "Am In the market for one operation for appendicitis. One-, two-, or five Inch Incision with or without ether, also with or without nurse. Quotations must include putting appendix back and cancelling order if found sound. Successful bidder is expected to hold incision open for sixty days as I expect to be In the market for an operation for gallstones, and I want to save the extra cost of cutting." Next to Tom Brandon's front window display of bathing suits, we don't think there la another thing In town that causes any more excitement than to see a man coming down the street attired in a Palm Beach suit and a derby hat. KnM.ntnnn ran ford A Ford started to climb a long, steep hill, its engine full of confidence, purring away, "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can." Near the top, however, the engine slowed up an wheezed, "I thought I could, I thought I could, I thought I could." Not wiling to quit outright, the staunch little Ford made one final effort, reached the top and went off humming. "I knew I would. I knew I would, I knew I would."' Sometimes when you are a bit downhearted, remember the Ford, and stay with 'em. boy; stay with 'em.

YOUR HEALTH-

Epidemics of small pox used to occur at regular Intervals. They caused thousands of deaths and left thousands chronically ill and permanently disfigured. During the past ten years there has been a remarkable decline in the number of ca-e3 of this disease. This gratifying record is due to universal vaccination. Typhoid fever used to kill forty prcsona in every one hundred thousand of the population. In 1021 the death rate from this disease in many of our large cfties had fallen to two persona in one hundred thousand. Furnishing an ample supply of pure water and protecting the food supply against contamination have been the two most important factors in reducing the sickness and death caused by typhoid fever. Years ago. dlptheria wrus a most dreaded disease. When epidemics bf this grim harvester visited us, as they

did sf fro-mnt Infpn'.q) narpnt I

were in fear lost their children fall victims to It. In an epidemic which occurred In 1876, almost three hundred died out of every one hundred thousand of the population. In 1921 In the same community there were but eighteen deaths in every one hundred thousand of the population. This wonderful saving of life is attributable to the discovery and use of antitoxin. Recently there has been devised a simple method which enables us to ascertain whether or not a person is immune to dlptheria. This is called the "Schick test." This test would be of little practical value were It not that a serum has been produced which will protect against

the disease, and which should be employed if the Schick tst indicates the necessity. If they are uniformly used, these two measure? promise to rid us of th4.3 fearful disease within a few years. To my mind the most striking evidence of progress in public health Is the decrease in the death rate among children. Up to 1S91 deaths of children under five years of age In many communities averaged about one hundred per thuosnnd. This means that about 10 per cent of the children died before they were five years of age. Last year the death rate among children under five years ot age was reduced to twenty-four per thousand. The death rate among ne-w born Infants used to be still worse. For Instance, in 1891, one child out of every four born In New York City die-d during the first year. The rate was 241 per thousand births. Last year the rate was 71 per thousand, a saving of 20,000 babies In one year. Malaria was the cause of a great many deaths fifty years ago. Today we need not have a case of malaria unless it Is Imported. This possibility 13 the result of the discovery that malaria Is carried by certain types of mosqultos the anopheles and by the practical application of this knowledge. To accomplish this, miles of ditches have been dug and hundreds of thousands of acres of marsh land have been drained. Thfse are a few of the outstanding examples of what ha3 been accomplished in the prevention of illness and death. It is a nobie record. Isn't It?

These are thoughts which always come When the heart with grief i3 numb. "Why," the anguished mother cries, "With the tears still in her eyes, "Must any baby go away And $me ninfuj creature stay?"
