Who Can Tell9

When our war with Spain broke over the
sinking OF the Maine in Havana harbor, who
would have supposed the chief result would be
TO give MS the Philippines and Porto Rico and
leave Cuba an Independent republic?
When the Boer war was waging go fiercely
who would have imagined the sight OF the same
conquered Beers fighting under the British flag
for the supremacy Of Great Brtain7
When Japan had Russia BUNDLED and ap-
parently at It's mercy and was, as II believed
cheated out OF the legitimate fruits Of victory,
who would have pictured the Russian and the
Jap so soon joined In arms against the German?
When tho Mexican revolt started against
Diaz, who would have thought It possible to
produce a situation in which two revolutionary
leaders like villa and Carranza would fight to
keep each other from becoming Diaz successor
When the great European war conflagration
blszed mp. who expected Il TO last four months
without decisive achievement on either side?
Prophets are numerous and rash but who
can tell?

abroad for that purpose.
Mrs. Elizabeth Bogner. who lives on a
truck farm near Philadelphia, has found
the raising Of celery profitable employ

5000 this year. Next year she will add
to her equipment. and expects 10 do the
work on a much larger scale
Mrs. Annie Petty Of Junction City, Kan,
decided that Eer church should have a
building OF its own. and not a rented
room. She therefore took in washing
daily and earned money enough to pur-
chase a lot. and then contributed largely
to the erection OF the recently completed
building.
Mics Mary Mcdowell and Miss Mary
NlttiIm were elected commissioners In
Cook county, Illinois. They ran as pro

Ksntucky's Pig Clubs.

Kentucky IL another OF the southern states
leaping ahead In the matter OF scientific agricul-
tural and live stock culture. While Georgia
and South Carolina are making conspicuous sue
cesses OF their boys corn clubs, the old Blue
Grass state comes forward with the innovation
of pig clubs for its boys. the purpose being to
promote interest in the raising OF swine. With
all the advantages offered by the ever increas-
ing demand for sweet ham and good bacon and
succulent pork chops and the like. this ought to
prove most profitable departure.
Now. the last time Kentuckians voted on the
liquor question IL became apparent that even
Kentucky was not secure from the encroach-
ment OF prohibition; indeed somo OF its coun-
ties are dry today. All of which suggests the
possibility of the larger popularity OF another
kind OF pig club To be sure. old Kaintuck has
before this heard OF the blind Pig that some
times infent tal-grass countries. where the hid
ing is good. But Kentucky has always takcn
hers straight and above-bOard, and we venture
TO say that II Its people do finally decide to get

Timely Arrival Of the Jason.

The Jasons arrival in Europe on Thanksgv-
ing eve helps further 20 deepen the splendid
meaning OF its mission. Exactly one month
from the day II touched at Plymouth the ships

America will be in the hands OF their little
cousins Of the war-stricken lands abroad. Not
one step in the progress of this fleeing messen-
ger Of peace on earth. good will toward men,"
was obstructed by mishap or misfortune. An
all wise Providence has conserved the safety of
the enterprise that stands forth as an eloquent
expression in practical terms Of the sublime
principle OF the democracy OF man. The spirit
OF Bnglands reception will be the spirit OF all
Europe This is a benediction OF unquestioned
neutrality. Comfort to the needy and Joy to
the cherries has been the only thought in the
minds OF those back OF this enterprise, which
betokens the real concern OF Americans, young
and old, in the welfare OF Europeans, young and
old, Of whatever state. creed or race. Surely
on that score there can be no misunderstanding.

Bryan could be parent to the thought No sugEes-
tion OF a schism with President Wilson was con-
tanned In the report and the initiative for the change
in the cabinet said rather to lie with Mr. Bryan
than with the president.
According to the Heralds correspondent,
Mr.. Bryan is to seek relief from the wearing
routine Of executive duties" and further the
opportunity OF "girding up the loins of democ-
racy for the battle Of 1916" All, yes! And is
Mr.. Bryan to be sent forth again as the chief
girder-up OF the loins OF his party or can II be
that Mr. Bryan has the notion OF returning to
Nebraska to grid UP his own Joins for the next
senatorial racer
In the meantime, the Herald's story IS boil
stored up by the addenda that Mr.. Bryan Is
providing for those Of his most intimate friends
In office who would be most directly affected by
his resignation." Here. again, some of the
home folks" find their interest becoming acute.

Private Property.

collectively own and operate both COM

cooperative societies is socallistic, So

Now, supposing. the workers Of the
