months money has become so short
that it is hard matter to borrow,
and as result many wagon loads of
corn are coming into town to the ell

1t is a curious fact that many of
tn most distinguished of American
painters were originally educated as
engineers. Charles H. Woodbury. was
one of these. He graduated from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy in 1886, receiving the degree of
mechanical engineer. But he always
had the art instinct, and meant soon
er or later to take up that profession.
Even when he was taking the diff
fficult course at the institute he man
aged to paint great deal, and OBJ
tanned in his Junior year medal
from the Boston Arts Club-no small
accomplishment. After his graduation
he went to Paris and entered the
Julien Academy, and he has been
receiving medals ever since he came
home.
Few men have studied the sea as
has Woodbury.. He has a house and
a studio on the Maine coast at Drum
quit, workshop where he can paint
the sea directly out of his window.
There he lives the year around.
and he works like a hired man, every
day and all day, no matter what the
weather, or how high the wind.
Woodbury. was one of the first men
to paint the open ocean, making
many trips over the Atlantic for, this
purpose. He used to stay on deck,
with his canvas, and himself also
for that matter, dashed to the rigging,
that he might catch strom effects.
His most important work, a great
canvas called "Mid-Ocean," created
sensation when it was first shown,

City Government

The great trouble with the govern
ment OF most cities is partisan poll
tics. There should be no politics in
city government Community inter-
ests. The people are taxed that they
may have good streets and that these
streets may be kept in repair; that
they may have police and fire pro-
lection; that ashes and garbage may
be collected; that public utilities may
be regulated to perform real social
and domestic service economically;
that all public utilities for the COM
mon good may be cooperative of the
highest efficiency. City government,
to be perfect, should be an agency to
perfect every day conveniences which
will make the community comforta-
ble,, healthy, happy and prosperous.
1t is recognized now that partisan
politics has no place in purely dom
estic affairs. should have no place
in municipal economic affairs. The
problems of municipal government
are really enlarged domestic prob
lens. There should be the same bro
therhood and cooperation and help
fulness in the city that there is in the
family. The sooner the voters
realize that what they want is not a
republican mayor, or democratic
mayor, or a progressive mayor, or a
prohibition mayor or socialist may
or, but business head of the city
government who shall be efficient
and thoroughly in sympathy with
the people, who shall not NEEDLE in
partisan politics and shall be re-
sponsible directly to the people.
What is needed at the head of city
government are men who will put
their shoulders to the wheel of pro-
gress for the city and every individ-
ual in it, men who do not know, so
far as their connection with the city
government is concerned, to which
political party they belong.-Knick

Little Journeys

This Is the time of year when
nearly everyone is planning some
kind of trip. Usually the longer the
trip the pleasanter the anticipation
of it is.
But there are certain kinds of
journeys that are not classed as
pleasure trips" when the wealth
er is hot. These journeys are the
necessary shopping excursions.
Two women were overheard
talking in the shopping district
early one morning of this past
week. One of them said 81 wish
could have stayed at home today.
l have a list of ten things 1 must
buy, and I know it is going to
take me until closing time to get
them ALL"
II have a list of fourteen ar
ticles," the other replied, "but I
expect to be home by noon"
How can you ever manage it?"
said the first.
Easily enough. I looked over
the newspapers and by going
through the advertisements care
fully was able to plan regular
route for my trip. ! know just
what shops am going to and
what I shall buy in each one"
This wise woman by her intelli-
gent forethought made her shop
ping trip pleasant "little jour-
ney." No one can afford not to
follow her example in reading
thoroughly the advertisements in
the good newspapers when so
much time and nerve-fag can be
saved by doing SO.
