It isn't strange that we are such
slaves to habit-because it is so COM
mon. l find that notwithstanding all
the freedom l enjoy from the infu-
ence of newspaper advertising l was
so long in the regulation newspaper
game that it isn't easy to realize l am
free to say anything and write any
thing believe to be true.
Probably no man knows how much
of a slave he has been until he gets
free. still feel at times as l imagine
a canary feels who is freed after iv-
ing his entire life in cage. He doesn't
know how to be free.
l imagine that if a man who has
worked for somebody else all his life
were given a farm and turned loose
on it debt-free he would feel home
sick for a boss.
Ihave wondered what judges would
do if all the law books in the world
were destroyed and they had to de-
eide a case or pass upon a point of
law without being able to look up the
authorities and see what some other
judges did under similar circumstan-
ces many years ago.
Judges are mental slaves just like
the rest of us humans are. The dead
hand is on them and they can't shake
it off. You seldom hear of a Judge
with Imagination enough to make an
original decision and establish a new
precedent-set a new mark for future
judges to steer by. 1t is so much cas-
ier to be governed by precedents al
ready established.
Here is about the way the average
man would answer an appeal to take
The Day Book the first time he saw
a copy if he were to voice what was

of it:

Another thing prospective subscrib-
ers were looking for when had can
vassers out trying to build up circula-
ton was a bride. They were so accus-

other premium, that they couldn't be-
lieve The Day Book was newspaper
when asked to take it for their own
benefit and information.
When a canvasser got through with
his argument with one woman she re-
piled with question: ANY pres
ents?"
And when she was told there were
no presents she couldn't see The Day
Book as a newspaper.
There were no guessing contests,
no premiums or other brides, no cOu-
pons to cIp-how could it possibly be
a newspaper?
Yet all the time the circulation is
growing. There was a slump for a
few days when the taking of Vera
Cruz and the big papers were full of.
big headlines and war" news. Those
big headlines got some people as
crazy as the newspapers were. They
got patriotic Or thought they did.
Anyhow, the big scareheads got them.
But it lasted about four days. It took
that long for them to find there was
little or no war outside of the news
papers. Then they came back to the.
real newspaper and the circulation
since then has grown every day. Now
it is at high water mark.

Greeks Begin War

Vienna-As predicted here all along,
hostilities have begun in those por-
tions of the Epirus awarded by the in
ternational delimitation commission

mainly with Koritza and Argysocastro
for centers, are mountainous and in
some snow is still lying, but as the
season advances it is. to judge from
the present, likely that the disturb

So far fighting takes place every
day between the newly-organized AL

Holland and efficient men, though
numbering all told so far but about
$500, and Greek regular troops, sup

The Albanians are also putting reg

The latter outnumber the Albanians
wherever the two sides have met
five to one. Several towns and vii

THICK, GLOSSY HAIR

If you care for heavy hair that glis-

life; has an Incompatible softness and
is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair. besides it imme-
diately dissolves every particle OF
dandruff. You can not have nice
heavy, healthy hair If you have
dandruff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of it's lustre, its strength and
its very life, and If not overcome IL

Mean Neiqhbors.

Referring to domestic scraps. Con-
gresham Samuel M. Taylor of Arkan-
sas told of the meanest neighbors that
ever lived, or, at least, that was the
opinion of Mrs. Smith, who lived next
door.
Smith was going downtown one
morning when he ran across a friend
and the conversation eventually
drifted to a new family that had
moved into the house adjoining the
formers.
Il am sorry they came there" said
Smith, referring to the new neighbors.
They are simply driving my poor wife
crazy"
That's hard luck" commented the
friend, alphabetically. What do they
do-have a domestic scrap every
night7"
YES" replied Smith, but that isn't
exactly what's driving mother bug
house. You see they fight in some
foreign language and she can't under
stand word they say."-Philadelphia

HALT COMMISSION
MexicanS Refuse TO Receive InVtS-
tigatOTS in Benton Case.
Passports Denied by Rebel Author.
ites-Recognition of Buerta by
England Complexities Issue.

Juarez, Mexico-The Benton invest
igating committee was prevented from
proceeding to Chihuahua to examine
the slain Briton's body by rebel orders.
Colonel Fidel Avila, military COM
mander here, declined to permit them
to board the regular passenger train
which was waiting. An authoritative
admission to this effect dispelled pre-
vious reports that the commission was
halted on orders from Washington
Whether the incident means delay
or the permanent prohibition OF the
mission could not be learned. The
mystery thrown around the occurrence
led many rumors of an apparently ex-
aggerated nature.
The most persistent inquiry here
and in Ell Paso failed to establish any
thing but the fact that passports were
refused to the commissioners on this
side and they returned to Ell Paso-
No official in Juarez has authority
to take such action as was taken in
this case. Only two persons in North
ern Mexico have the power Venus
tiano Carranza and General Villa
The order came as surprise to the
commissioners. Villa, at Chihuahua
has repeatedly expressed his desire to
hasten the inquiry, and his offer of I
special train to take the mission from
this city to Chihuahua, where Benton
body is said to be buried, was formal
ly accepted by Marion Letcher, Amer
lean consul there.
George C. Carothers, agent of the
State department in many of its deal
ings with Villa, also delayed his de
parture for Chihuahua.
