Socialists are Raped.

Socialism evidently is meant
mostly to play on the credulity OF
the people and It takes for granted
that the general masses of Americans
are ignorant. But, its gullibility
sometimes gets some very severe
raps. The recnt Broad Oaks cleo
tion is pointed out as an instance.
One well acquainted with conditions
there has the following to say:
"a hand bill distributed in Broad
Oaks on the day before the election
shows the ignorance and inconsist-
ency of the Socialist party. 1t states
that Broad Oaks has a poor system
Fof sidewalks, which everyone knows
Atotbe false, as every property owner
Is required by an ordinance to build
his own walk and maintain the
same, which is a statute law and so
decided to be valid by the supreme
court; and then they promise in the
same paragraph a better system
and that the burden shall fall as
lightly as possible on the property
owner and taxpayer! Who will
build them? They also offer the
people the initiative, referendum
and recall. There being no state
law to that effect, such could not be
carried out. They do that simply to
snare our voters.
''They also propose to appoint a
health oficer, very ignorant of the
fact that Broad Oaks has had a
health committee of three persons
for the last four months, which has

water DrinIsing with Meals.

Pursuant to tradition of long
standing, it is a common custom
to forbid the drinking of water at
meal time. There was time when
such advice appeared most reason
able. Prof. Hawk and his pupils at
the University of illinois have been
investigating, during the last few
years, the correctness of the current
attitude toward this question. with
results quite at variance with the
traditional idea.
When the influence of water
drinking with meals was examined
by direct experiment on man the al
legged direful consequences we're
found missing, says The journal Of
the American Medical Association.
There were no apparent i'll effects. On
the contrary, the general conclusion
from all the findings was that If
water is taken with all the meals
there is better digestion and a
more complete utilization of food.
A pronounced Improvement in the
accessibility OF it was also OBJ
served.
Since there is constant tendency
lat least among persons whose knowl-
edge of the given subject is slight,
to carry to extremes conclusions de-
rived from experiments, 1t seems
worth while to add a warning
against indiscrlninate and excessive
use OF large quantities of water,
Furthermore, nothing that has been
said is intended to lend any support
to the American custom of drinking
water that Is Ice cola. The expert
ments OF Hawk and his pupils indi-
cate that our ideas with regard to
the drinking of water must be re-
vised, but We must wait for reports
of observations from a larger body
of observers. In the meantime, we
may allow water more freely with
meals, subject to the individual ex,
ceptions which experience brings
out.

efty.
The reason fol the change ID
found By The Advertiser in the san
Francisco Examiner, which says II
IS because agriculture IS being
|taught IN the Kansas public schools
and because a constant effort is be-
ing made to keep the boys on the
farm. Doubtless these have been
great factors in the regeneration OF
Kansas, but have not other and
more far-reaching causes entered
into it?
When Kansas was suffering it's
poverty-stricken era and the kan
sas mortgage was iocplarly used
everywhere as a smile for extreme
oppression. Democratic, hodge
podge tariff bill was in effect, Kan
sas farmers were raising wheat, corn
and other crops then but low prices
prevailed 80 generally that they
could not get enough money for
their crops to pay for raising them.
They did not get half Of what they
get now. II is no wonder that
mortgages multiplied and grew as it
was simply case Of mortgages, or
starvation, Even " free instruction
in scientific agriculture had then
been given 1t would have been i'm
possible for the distressed farmers
to send their children to school for
It 81
But, with a change Of national
business policies, the, Kansas far
mers have been enabled to throw
on their mortgages, send their chill
dren to the schools and universities,
lay aside something for rainy day
and buy automobiles. They get
more than twice as much now for
their crops as they did when the
Wilson tarlff bill was working.

number Of death due to railroad ae-
cidelts was about 10000, but only
356 Of the victims were passengers,

number killed were trespassers and

THE death rate Of the country Is
about one IN every slxty-five inhab-

grand opera house here during Feb
ruary in chantecler, was born and
began her stage career in Salt Lake

to amuse the people of the Utah

small. she drawing but $3.50 for
each performance.

and that of her mother, Mrs Annie

encountered in the advertising and
amusuent columns Of the paper in
the seventies and eighties, the days
when Maude was 'youthsto. fortune

her mother, a born actress, she not

her elocution is as clear and perfect
as her acting is free and unre-
