preme judgeships independently Of any
geographical divisions. but congressman
and one of the five judgeships is not too
much for King to ask, and it is not more
than she will get If she sinks petty differ
ences in the greater struggle for a due rep
Yesentation.

SUNDAY BALL GAMES,

Many in Newtown who wish to find In
their Sunday day of rest and quiet
have been disturbed by the playing of
baseball. Whatever may be the individ-
ual ideas as to Sunday observance, there
can be no question in the mind of any
order loving citizen that the driving Of
ts lily -ho through the streets with loud
singing and shouts, liz not conducive to
meditation or order. The posting of
notices, too, advert Using the game in
front of the post flee and in other con-
spicuous places is not Calculated to rem
der this Christian day OF rest and wor-
ship mora sacred. This community be-
longs to all. It Is not for some boldly to
invade the rights Of others. Many thor
oughly object to this form of Sabbath
dissertation. The law Ia not In our hands
but, In the name Of decencv and respect
TO the wishes of all. we call upon those
who have made practice of Sunday
baseball playing to cease.-IOtis w.

Fox, George II. Linsley.

The Man With The Hoe.

Prot MarEhams strong Indictment of civil.
ization H. his poem, The Man With the Hoe"
might have been ritten with less virulent
pen, did the author realize how much has
been done by Lite Insurance to dissolve the
unnatural fellowship between the owly toiler
and his yoke fellow, The OK. Lite insurance,
formerly thought to be "A prerogative of the
Glasses, has its blessings extended to the tIil-
ing masses in the past decade to such an ex-
tent that the most improvtdent toiler on the
farm or worker In the mill whose capital ls
his brawny arms ottentlmes has stake in
the community in his lite insurance policy,
equal 10 his more fortunate brother with O
bank book or patrimonial estate. When the
family bread winner dies, his life insurance
policy strikes the shackles from his feet, I'M
yokes him from the OK, glorifes his lite, and
exalts him to the elevated plane of a hero
And the In insurance agent is abroad In the land
spreading the blessing.
