S. government could refuse to pay’gold after contracting to do so, just because Congress, instructed by Roosevelt, had declared the country would do so. But the court adjourned until Feb. 4th without handing down its decision. If the Court o. k.’s the law, here’s a few comments to have on hand when expressing your opinion, either “lur or agin” the decision: “That nation is worthless that will not, with pleasure, venture ail for its honor. ” —Schiller. ‘ honor is most Capricious in her remains hue feeds us with air, anu ol ten'pulls down our house to bund our monument.” ‘•Going to law is losing a cow for the sase of a cat.”—Chinese proverb. “’there is no country in the world in which everything can be provided for by the laws, or in which political institutions can prove a substitute tor common sense and public rnoiahty. "■ l»e Tocqueville. “U hen 1 hear uny man talk of an unalterable law, the only effect it produces on me is to convince me that he is an unalterable fool.”—Sydney Smith. . “Vvith us, law is nothing unless close behind it stands a warm, living public opinion. Let that die or grow indifferent, and statutes were waste paper, lacking all executive force.”—Wendell Phillips. —. 0..— NOTICE CHICK BUYERS! Chick buyers are being warned this year to place their order at least three weeks ahead of the time when they want their chicks. The reason is that the 1935 hatchery code makes it practically impossible for hatcheiies to produce a large number of chicks and. have them on hand whenever buyers choose to come in for them. In past years it has been common for hatcherymen to produce considerably more chicks than have been ordered with the hope that sufficient extra chick buyers Will come in to take the surplus chicks.' Many times buyers did not appear and these chicks had to be sold at distress prices, causing severe losses to hatcherymen and frequently resulting in loss to the buyer, as some hatcherymen did not have proper facilities holding the chicks after Many hatcherymen give discounts to buyers who order in advance and •11 these things benefit both the. buyer and haicherymen. While imposing restrictions on hatcherymen the code benefits chick buyers by requiring hatcherymen to operate under very stringent re-j quirements. Every egg set must weigh at the rate of 23 S ounces per dozen which insure* larger chicks and will lend to increase the size of eggs produced by the resulting pullets. Every hatcheryman is required to be absolutely truthful in his adveri Using, and is not allowed to misrepresent his, products. In order to help them maintain this high standard, hatcherymen feel that chick buyers should eooper- . ate to the extent of placing their , oider at least three weeks in advance . of the delivery date. O OFFICERS ELECTED. At the meeting of the Ladies of f the Round Table at the home of Mrs. Mereton Meredith, officers for the coming year were elected. These are; Mrs. M. E. Rapp, president; Mrs. Roy Darr, vice president; Mrs. Hilary Bachman, secretary; Mrs. Charles Crow; treasurer. 0 Muskolini has ordered every girl to marry, and every young man to learn to fight.

JOYS OF EDITING. Some people wonder if country newspaper editors do not have a secret ambition to get into the daily field. Maybe some of them do, but we don’t.. Here’s what we would miss should we hold the important and lucerative position of writing editorials for the Kansas Star, St. Louis otr any other metropolitan paper. No one would ever come in and say: “Edgar, you’re all wrong on what you said about me.” Or maybe it would be, “Mr. Blanton that was a mighty fine idea you had.” And again, “I like the way you are getting ou the Democrat.” The personal touch and acquaintance a country editor has is worth far more than the # reputation, power and salary of the big newspaper writers. In spite of what many people think, it really is a pleasure to have readers come in and complain about something the Democrat has said. The only way a wrong can be righted is by knowing a mistake has been made.—Edgar Blanto in Shelbina, Mo., Democrat. ' —o A lot of folks seem to think that an empty stomach is to be preferred to an empty gasoline tank.
