BY MOSES e. CLAPP, U. s.

During the spring and early
summer a strong demand was
made from various parts of the
country for a republican candidate
for the presidency of the United
States who should, in his achieve
ments and attiture, stand for pro-
gressive as against reactionary
policies.
While there was some pressure
for other candidates, the consen-
sus of sentiment clearly pointed
to Senator La Toilette. And 1t is
not hard to understand this, when
we realize what Senator LaFol-
lette has done for the American
people.
Years ago he started to rid
Wisconsin of boss rule and ma
chine dictation, and, although the
struggle was long and bitter, the
friends of progress finally tri-
umphed under his leadership, un-
til today Wisconsin stands in the
very front rank in America.
Even the corporations which
fought him so bitterly have finally

close to the police.

College seals upon his letters,
College pennants on his wall,
College letters on his sweaters,
College clothes and shoes, and
all;
College slang he's fond of sling
ing.
With no end of savoir faire,
College songs he's always singing,
college CUT he wears his hairI
Oh, he tells of college capers
And he has a college walk,
And he reads the college papers,
And he talks the college talk,
Sports a college belt and buckle,
Wears a college fob and chain,
Laughs with quite college
chuckle.
Swears in quite a college strain.
Then he dances college fashion
And he eats at college inns,
And he has perfect passion
For displaying college pins
And you'd never in creation
Guess this student-calm and

Old Question
Answered

Editor Times
II a tank and water put on the
scales would weigh so pounds,
and a 10 lib live salmon would
be put in the tank would the total
weight he 60 or SO pounds?
A CONSTANT READER.
Answer:-The easiest way to
settle this old argument is to put
a bucket of water on the scale
and then throw in the fish and
note the result.
II the bucket is not full of
water already the addition of the
fish will certainly increase the
weight by the weight of the fish.
II the fish displaees water then
the weight may not increase.

The Worlds Divorces.

The average annual number of
divorces In the United States for
FIVE years was greater than the num-
Ter in all the rest of the socalled
Christian world, according to figures
given in the Independent by VIM. b.
Bailey. assistant professor of politi-
cal economy in Yale university. The
Euro psan nations in the list furnish
less than half as many divorces.
and yet had a population of more
than two hundred million In 1900.
There Is no European country with
a divorce rate half as high as that
of the United States, and in some
countries divorce Is almost unknown.
In Ireland. for instance, only one
divorce was grantsdtin the five years
from 1909 to 1908. In chart
showing the worlds divorce record.
Japan alone surpasses the United
States The figures on which the
chart is based refer. with one excep-
ticn to the average annual number
of divorces for FIVE years ending in
1902 and 1903 and are as follows:
