Springfield, Mo, June 22.-All lone
some old maids for whom lifelong
company of a cat and a parrot seems
q bleak and wintry outlook SHOULD
cheer up, says Alice Mary Kimball in
the Springfield Republican.
There is hope for all those who are
enterprising enough to pack their
trunks, dress up their protest and
blithly sail away to Panama. Such, DIT
least, is the optimistic belief of the
vice president of the Travel Service
Bureau, W. A. Chamberlain of ST
Louis, who was visitor in Springfield
this week.
The canal zone is just bristling and
scintillating with eligible bachelors
There all tall ones and short ones, fat
ones and thin ones, blue-eyed ones
and black-eyed ones, fair-haired ones
and bald-headed ones. There are do
Gle, good naturer little souls who
Lart their hair in the middle and al
ways wipe their feet before they come
in. Husky Norse-Viking gentlemen,
resembling the dashing sheriff who
always rescues the railroad pres;-
dents daughter from the wild western
desperadoes in the Essanay films,
thrive in great abundance also few
of the dreamy, poetic type who invar-
iably say the right thing on a moon
light night are on the United States
pay roll.
Bachelors, there are scads and
shoals and RATS and coolies of them.
Moreover they are homesick and des-
perate for the taste of something like
mother used to make" Considering
all this, and also the fact that this IS
leap year, all wise virgins ought to
know just what to do.
Mr.. Chamberlin has half a mind to
organize personally conducted tour
of unmarried ladies to the canal zone
Without attaching a matrimonial bu-
reau to the expedition or indelicately
limiting the purpose of the trip, he has
a notion that Cupid and the canal zone
preachers would have a strenuous time
from the moment the excursion steam
ar landed
Then this is the proper time to see
the canal zone. Water will be turned
IN in the big ditch some time next
summer, when one would miss seeing
he Interesting feature of the vast en-
project.
Part of the pleasure of visiting the
canal zone comes from the fact that
it is the cleanest, most sanitary place
on the whole earth. 1t has the lowest
death rate Of any place in the world.

result of Uncle Sans vigorous
swat the Fly campaign, not single
specimen of this common pest is ever

places"
'B'rer Mosquito has also met his
Waterloo. Swamps have been drained
nd oil poured over all stagnant wa
er where the young hopefuls of the
mosquito family otherwise would be-
in their WHOLESOME careers. A mos
uito seldom flies more than mile
rom its breeding place and so, by
reakink up its happy home on the
othmus this pest has been entirely
minated.

JDGE CRISP SHOULD BE ELECTED

The Democrats of the Third Con-
gressional District will do themselves
an injustice if they do not rally 70
support Of Judge Crisp and elect him
as their representative at Washington.
Judge Crisp is eminently qualified
for the position of congressman. BY
education, training, environment, he
has become exceedingly well equipped
10 perform the duties of a congress-
man in a way that will be satisfac-
tory to the people of the district and
at the same time prove of value to the
party as a whole and to the nation.
Judge Crisp is cool headed, sagaci
Gus, careful in judgment, deliberate in
action. He enjoys the confidence and
esteem of the leaders of the national
.,arty This was clearly shown by
his selection as House Parliamentary
ian. Another tribute to his capacity
as a public man came with his APP
pointment as parliamentarian at the
great national gathering of the party
at Baltimore this week. No one but q
man holding himself well in restraint,
quick of action yet sound of judgment,
would have been selected for such an
important post as this.
By sending Judge Crisp to Washing
ton as its representative the Thin i
position there that would otherwise be
lost Judge Crisp knows the proceed
eminent bureaus and their methods.
He is acquainted with the functions of
the government in every one OF its
branches. There would be no lost time
with Judge Crisp representing the dis
tically with the standing of an old
member And that means much to the
district, the state and the South
There is nothing of the sensational
list about Judge Crisp. He is not go
ing about the district megaphoning
that he is a self made man" or that
he eats collards and cabbage Ticker.
A clean, high toned, gentleman, thor
oughly in sympathy with the aspira
tons of the people of his district,
4Lni &c hot Xyinu hAi
desires, capable of representing them
in an efficient manner from the start
his candidacy should appeal to every
Democrat who wants a man at Wash
ington capable of doing something fol
the party as a whole.
1t would be grievous blunder If
the District did not send Judge CrisH
as it's representative. He is pre-emin-
emily the best qualified of the candi-
dates He is unquestionably the best
equipped from any standpoint. He
unqu estionably has advantages from
his folmer ard present connection
with governmental affairs that will en-
able him to do justice to the people h
represents and reflect cridit upon then
aid himself His candidacy is direCt
