ENVY.
(By Ruth Cameron.)

How much Of the happiness in this
world is built on the very ugly foun-
dation OF other peoples envy!
That is a very disturbing and dis
heartening thought which comes to

On things is determined, not by their
intrinsic beauty or utility. but rather
by their rarity.
Luxuries would not be luxuries if
everyone could have them. "AutomO-
biles are SO common nowadays" says
one of the rich folks who was among

You see, a large proportion of his
pleasure in owning Il ear consisted in
having something that other people
could not have.
Would the woman who declares she
lcycs her diamonds because Of their
fire and sparkle continue to love them
if a gigantic diamond mine were dis
covered and diamonds became mex
pcnsive and corrcspondingly COM
mon? Indeed she wouldn't. She
would forget all about that fire and
sparkle which she declared was so
surprisingly beautiful. and would
want some other gem which common
people could not afford. The fact
that it had less intrinsic beauty
would probably mean nothing to her.
A plain girl longs with all of her
heart to be pretty, and thinks she
would be perfectly happy if she might

German Agriculture.

This plan would be extremely costly and
is not likely to be carried out for that
reason.
This plan of taking up road building
does not meet with the approval of Di-
rector Page. He wants to build up the
roads from the localities and the states
the mselves. He believes that with
such a start, a system of national high
ways could be developed naturally and
would be of more benefit 20 the farmers.
Big trunk highways, Mr.. Page asserts,
would be fine for automobilists, but the
local roads are more necessary to the
farmer, the rural mail carrier and the
public generally.
Consequently before the federal gov
eminent gets through with the question
of good roads, 1t doubtless will have ex-
pended more money than would be re-
quired to finance a small war. Director
Page figures that to rebuild the roads
of this country and put them in good
condition, that is the roads that now
exist, would cost many millions of dol
lars. Some of the foreign governments,
notably France, have spent enormous
sums on their roads.

ing the great Civil War, on the outcome
of which depended the life of the
Union of Uncle Sam states.

Mr.. Swauger said that the finest things
of the kind he ever witnessed, adding
that he heard some the best speeches
there that ever fell upon his ears -

SPEAK OUT! SPEAK QUIT

Speak out! Speak OUT is the al
most desperate cry of the New York
World, the newspaper chiefly RESPONSE
BILE for the nomination of Woodrow Will
son in 1912, as it was for the nomina-
ton of Alton B. Parker IN 1904. Day
after day, 1t seems, the World has been
waiting with ears to the windward for
some point, some virile, vital expression
from its latest presidential jack out of
the box on questions of the hour, some
solid positive utterance by the candidate,
which it could grub and lay about with
as a campaign shillelah. 1t has waited
IN vain. Rounded periods of drearY
drivel, pedagogical commonplaces that
might have come out of a third reader
and which had about as much relation
to issues of the campaign as cit is a sin
to steal a PIN has to Metropolitan
opera, have been fed to curious crowds
and to editors waiting with whetted
pens for red hot meteors of inspiration.
disappointment and disgust are not
confined to the World office 1--WE ask
ed you for bread and YOU gave US a
stone" is paraphrased in Democratic
sentiment by I'VE asked YOU for meat
and you gave US mush. Nauseated
with Wilson they turned to Marshall
only to find him as aperient of the
vacuous platitudes as his coadjutor.
It's hopeless appeal. AS well try
to seize the elusive tail of creased pig
at a county fair as expect to get any
thing definite out of Wilson. He was
definite enough when he said in his
History of the American People" that
the Chinese are more to be desired as
workmen, if not as citizens, " than the
coarse crew crowding in at the eastern
ports" - that is, immigrants from
Europe. He was definite enough in
the same book that congress had "dealt
very harshly" IN passing the law eX-
Guiding the Chinese from the United
States. He was definite enough IN de-
nouncing immigrants from Poland,
Hungary and Italy.
Evidently Wilson can speak out if he
wants to, and the inference is that he
is afraid to. On the issue of navy
powerful enough to defend the interests
and uphold the honor of the United
States he is silent for fear of offending
the Democratic majority in congress
opposed to strengthening the navy. On
the tariff he is, to quote an old com
parisOn, neither man, nor a mouse,
nor long tailed rat, - but more like one
of those ancient Egyptian monstrosities
carved on the mummy cases, with heads
looking contrariwise. On one point he
is defnite-he wants to be president,
and he doesn't care much how.he gets
there. He is willing to slosh through a
sea of bosh to the White House, and
now that he counts upon the World and
the rest of the whangdoodles to follow,
whether they like his style or not.
Perhaps they will, notwithstanding
grimaces of disgust and protesting
cries to speak out.
But the people-they want man for
president.

A Newspaper as the Business Index
of the Town.

A progressive paper very correctly
remarks that no business man in any
town should allow any newspaper pub
lished in his town go without his name
and business somewhere in its columns.
This applies to all kinds of business
general stores, dry goods, groceries,
furniture dealers, grain dealers, me-
chanics, professional men and in fact
all classes of business men.
This does not mean that you should
have whole or even a quarter of a
page ad. in every issue of the paper,
but your name and business should be
mentioned if you do not use more than
one inch space.
A stranger picking up a newspaper
should be able to tell just what business
is represented in town by looking at
the business mentioned in the paper.
The home paper should be correct
directory or index to the town.
1t is the best possible advertiser.
The man who does not advertise his
business does an injustice to himself
and his town.
He is the man who expects the news
paper to do the most free boosting for
his town.
The man who insists on sharing the
business that comes to town but refuses
to advertise his business is expecting
more than is justly due him.
The life of any town depends upon the
live, wide-awake and liberal advertising
business men. -Emmittsburg Md
