The decision of Charlottenburg and
Schoneberg, two of Berlin's largest
suburbs, to appeal TO the reichstag to
assign to each of them a representa-
tive in that body. again calls atten-
ton to the striking Inequalities in the
size Of the reichstag districts.
Contrary to the American practice
of readjusting the representation of
the various states after each census,
the Germans have never undertaken
a change in the electoral law of the
North German Federation adopted in
1863, which was taken over by the
empire with only such changes as

that a corps of cadets be held ready

major, reported at once at the guard
room as ready for duty. General
Smith said:
Major Jackson, you will remain as
you are until further orders"
Jackson at that moment was sitting
on a camp stool i'm the guardroom with

The Road to Success.

Just tack this UP somewhere where
you can see it:
Success consists in getting out of
yourself everything that's in you It
does not consist in doing almost quite
as much or little more than the 9TH
er fellow. What the other fellow does
doesn't amount to dent in n door
knob so far as you are concerned.
The fact that he succeeds by laying
an Atlantic cable, building an Eiffel
tower, inventing wireless telegraphy or
cOrnering the worlds supply of oil
doesn't make you a failure because you
haven't got enough ready money to
buy an automobile. You're successful
when you put to some useful purpose
every ounce of energy, every grain of
gray matter. every mite of muscle that
you've got. You're successful when
you've developed all there is to you
and have given that to the world

Plan to Prevent Flooding of Sill
YER Lake Farms.
From Surplus Water After Hard
Rain Storm.
CONSTRUCT BIG SEWER
Engineer Parkhurst Thinks 1t
Might Give Relief.
Act as Supplement to Six Mile
Drainage Ditch.
.ONSTRUCT BIG SEWER

Plans will be made to prevent the
flooding of the farms in the vicinity of
Silver Lake from the water which
comes down from the hills north of
the town after a hard rain storm. The
matter is being taken up at meeting
of the township boards of Silver Lake
and Menoken township at Silver Lake
today. V. Z. Parkhurst, county en-
gineer, went to Silver Lake this mcrn-
ing to meet with the boards.
His idea is to construct sewer to
relieve the present drainage ditch.
This ditch is six miles long. 1t begins
about mile and half west Of Silver
Lake and runs into Soldier creek near
the Sam Harper farm.
II can not tell just what ought to be
done to relieve the situation until
look the ground over" said Mr.. Park
hurst this morning. ut is my idea,
however, that one plan would be to
construct cement sewer which
would relieve the drainage ditch by
carrying part of the water into Silver
Lake. 1 intend to look over the
ground and then make report to
the boards
