The big head" is a popular
way of expressing a common and
very frequent ailment. 1t rises
from various sources, but the real
foundation is a lack Of sense.
A little money develops it in some
people; a few good clothes gives
it to others; a little Office, where
a chance is given to exercise a
little authority, is often the cause
of it, while others get it having
a little better job than their asso-
ciates. The truth is no sensible
person gets the big head. /" The
ones who become stuck up anc
stiff-necked from sources of any
kind, are weak in the intellectual

The President and His Cabinet.

President Woodrow Wilson, of New
Jersey, and Vice President Thos. R.
Marshall, of Indiana, were duly sworn
and indicted into office on the 9TH of
March, 1918, in the midst of one of the
most distinguished assemblages Wash
ington City ever witnessed.
Thus the United States has the first
Democratic President it has had for
sixteen years, when Grover Cleveland
was President. Mr. Wilson, however,
has decided advantage over Mr.. Cleve-
land, as he has a majority in the Senate
and in the House, whereas Cleveland
had both of these branches of the gov
ernment against him.
Mr.. Wilson's cabinet officers are an
nounced as follows:
Secretary of State William Jennings
Bryan, of Nebraska.
Secretary of the Treasury William
G. McAdoo, of New York.
Secretary of War-Lindley M. Gar
rison, of New Jersey.
Attorney General-James McReynold
of Tennessee
Postmaster General-AlbertS S. Burle

No one is so Independent as
the farmer: he doesn't have to

resent the insult without fear of

in use why he should not have
