NEVER THROW STONES, , ; ; WHEN YOUR HOUSE IS GLASS Governor Gates or his ghost-writerfrequently gets as wound up in words as a kitten with, a ball of yarn. A, case in point was his speech to the recent meeting in Iijdiariapolis of newspaper executives of the state, when he aSkedthe editors and publishers present to co-operate in "the big job ahead," to "buck the trend, to turn from wonderful nonsense and alluring theories to, Hoosier sense. ... It is the only) way to check the creeping paralysis of bureaucracy and bring order out of present chaos." The governor perhaps is not aware that his own state administration, while so vocal in its denunciation of "government by bureaucracy," far from doing away with those which existed in this state when he took office, has created 21 new ones all affording fat salaries which have added to the drain on state funds, and are one reason why the tax rate is the highest in the state's history.

"There," she said. "Your jacket has been christened." A FTER two weeks in St. Louis, Jessie and John and their XV. daughter, Lily, left tor Washington. Once there, they worked lor five months on the report of his expedition. Nothing was said about the cannon and Col. Kearny again established friendly relations with them. War with Mexico over the annexation of Texas seemed to be growing closer every day, and everyone was resolved that California must not fall into British hands. John was made a captain and a third expedition to' the West was authorized. Jessie had hoped to go with him on his next trip; instead 'she faced a staggering separation. On their last evening, she sewed a waterproof pocket on his jacket. John cried, "Darling, how can I leave you here?" A tear splashed on the jacket.

(Editor's Note: The following discourse or "barber shop phiL I osophy" was presented over rai dio station WBOW at Terre Haute 1 recently and a copy was forwarded upon request to C. R. Mayfield of Sullivan, Mr. Mayfield in turn making it available to us for publication.) Jake tlu Barber ought to be the wisest man in the world. I'm looking forward to the day wh3n they elect a barber to some of the high political offices in the country. I hope to see the day when a barber is presidant of the United States. And I have my reason'., too. The basher i hop is the most democratic institution we have. Where else will you find all kinds of people meeting on such common ground? The church irn't democratic, in the way a barber shop is, at all. Because somehow it seems as j though, if the rich people go to one church, the poor people wouldn't be rsen in that church except maybe to go to a funeral. And if the educated people go to one church, only the oducated people go there. And politics isn't democratic all the offices in Leafy County going each year to a certain type of office-seekers. And I don't know any institution that could pretend io be as democratic ar a barber I shop. j There the rich and the poor, the great and the humble, the educated and the uneducated, , meet on common ground. The j farmer and the banker, the miller and the school teacher, all I are very much alike in the bari ber Ehop whether they are , pitting looking at magazines, sJ?ttcp!nsi -fctoties, or lyinfe in He ' i;ajr with trie barber's njron ' icycr firm sM his towel rrnund j hFir fioscs.

minor note in the big discussions which take place. ' Jake almost ruined it about five years ago, himself. When I his wife left him and ran away 'with Bill Baggctt, Jake took it hard. It teemed as though every body but Jake had known v.hat

something was up between them, but apparently Jake didn't suspect anything until it had happened. And it hurt him so that he couldn't think of anything else for weeks. Every one who came in got the rame vale of how she had meant so much xo him and he had tried to please her every way he knew and she had been ungrateful. It wasn't the kind of talking which does any good. Sometimes, when a perron has a deep hurt, it helps to share the trouble. But it didn't help Jake to talk. He wasn't really sharing anything. Because he told the same story to every customer, no matter how many times the customer had jiaard it. And after a while people tired of it. They knew that Jake was ;'ust opening an old wound, rubbing salt in it, keeping a memory fresh. And they sensed that he was doing it becaufe he blamed , tf p L! ...:r ifi.. nimsen ior me way 111s wue ixiy him a while, and the big liscussions about the problemv of the world came into their .wn again. Jake should be wall informed on the issues of the day he certainly hear? all sides to he questions.; Whether it's how 'io raise mushrooms in the basement or how to control the secrets of atomic power, positive informa tion on all phases of th problems comes to light in ihe barber shop. If I wanted to !;now what Churchill said in his speech or how it was received in New York or in Moscow I'd be apt to get a pretty good answer ::rom Jake. Because they listened .o the speech in the rhop and ihey discussed the points. Then .h:y got together next day and discussed it again from the effect it had on the rest of the world. Joe Drone said he was baiting Russia, spoiling for a fight. The Judge said that the time rnd ccme when we had to take a firm hand that if we had taken f firm hand in Europe before Hitler got started, we'd ave raved a lot of time ind - rouble. ' And ths old argument was on. This argument went on fir several day: and I got in on part of it last Friday evening when I ::pent an hour or so :n the shop, getting . one of :n'(irrcguJar hair cuts.

job isHo go, my job is to let you go cheerfully." Jessie had little time to grieve. Secretary of State James Buchanan, learning that she was studying Spanish, set her to translating . Mexican news . dispatches for him. Then, when John had been gone many months, Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft visited Jessie. Bancroft talked casually about California, about the danger of Britain taking it while America hesitated. He said, "If only we had someone in California who could act swiftly at the right moment . . . what we need, Mrs. Fremont,' is an irresponsible man, someone whom we can honestly repudiate if things do not turn out well." Jessie took the hint. She sent a note to John outlining the government's position. For a long time, nothing was heard then suddenly came news that John had set himself

wonder about it. I wondered how he could be neutral, in the ntmosphere where every oerson who opened his mouth knew exactly how the problem ought co be settled his way! And then I thought, well, maybe he's Maying smart, so as not to offtmd anybody. But that didn't i.aem right. And then the subject changed to the strike situation. And the discussion raged around chat Question. Joe Drone thought the

government ought to call out the militia and use tear gas shoot a few pickets if necesnry but they ought to stop this ntrike foolisbnes? right away. Look what it was going to do to prices. We'd have inflation surs. And the Judge defended the right io strike and talked about the right to bargain and free speech. And they tried to pin Jake down again tried to make him take a stand for oicket lines or ngainst them. And again I noticed that Jake didn't tales any sides. And I thought that's funny. Surely he isn't afraid of offending either Joe or the Judge. And then Yh? Judge mads it so he had io answer, had to siy ye- or no.

"Court martial," John told her. "For mutiny!" up against the Mexican army in California. Events .moved swiftly. Americans staged the Bear flag uprising and declared California a republic. John fought with them and became a colonel. After the Mexicans surrendered to him, John was governor of California. . But Kearny, now a, general, was sent to California and clashed with Commodore Stockton, John's superior, over authority. Jessie heard that John was siding with Stockton. One day her father told her, "Colonel Fremont ; has been ordered back to Washington . . . under arrest." Jessie waited in panic. It was weeks before John arrived home. He looked broken. She kissed his bloodless lips and buried her head on his shoulder. "What does

And I thought, now that is a reflection of faith in the way things are run, that you don't often see. Most of us want to fight for our opinion? of how things ought to be done. We thing nobody can run things ox , cept us. And it reflects a listrust. a pessimism about the future. Jake was placid because he had faith. ! And all of a sudden it was ri parable to me. "Smarter ; men than me will have to figure chat one out." We stew and fret ourselves and worry about so many things things which we can't control. All our talk and worry won't change the weather. And we can't avoid the moral law, no matter how we try. And it's no good wondering if people will . like us or if we will fail or if tomorrow will bring sumhine. There are so many things we lane to tied with us, A'hich we don't need to. Things we need to entrust to God. And I thought: Jake k, a wise man although he doesn't take sides in the arguments. He is placid in the midst of turmoil becaure he has a faith in the future he leaves it to smarter men than he. And W3 can do the same thing with many of our cares leave them to God, the way Jake leaves his problems to smarter men than 'he to : decide. It Will give US peace.
