Rev. Waldo Messaros, in a recent SER
mon, says ''damns, have had their day."
II men must work off their surplus emo
tions by strong language, why not, says
the Rev. Messaros, choose some such
aesthetic and harmless intersection as
"Violets!" in place Of the vulgar and
wicked ''cuss words" now in usep
There is some reason In the suggestion,
for It is not to be gainsaid that the
damn, whether simple or linked to other
epithets, is often meaningless and 81 .ly,
II not wicked. Much better, ON many
ACCOUNTS, if you miss the train or lose
your stud to calculate "Violets!" But
If swearing is to be patriotic as well as
euphemistic the American should not
grOwl "Violetl" o yet cry ''Daisy!"
nor mutter "Pond Lilyl" but cry "Oh,
Sunflower!"

The county commissioners seen to have
it in for the officers from this part OF the
county. At the last meeting Of the board
there we're three bills presented by Lords
burg officers. They were made out ac-
cording to the statutes aud amounted to

board happened to be penuriously inclined
that day and cut the bills 10 S97. S57 and
827 each. Now an officer Is entitled to
all the law allows and when he makes out
a bill according te law the board has no
right to cut it down. OF course it it does
make a cut Of a lew dollars on each bill
that amount will be saved 10 the taxpayers
although it is done by robbing individuals.
However hard up the county may be the
taxpayers are not anxious to save their
own pockets by robbing a man Of money
earned. Again, it is no easy job TO get
officers in this precinct, and it will be still
harder if the board persists in cutting bulls
for no other apparent reason than that the
men who earned the money are 30 or 50
miles away.
