WANT OF THOUGHT,

1t is a trite, homely old adage that
saws. more wrong is wrought by want
OF thought" etc. Certain it is that the
mass of suffering and tragedies of the
world are the direct result of Incidence
and thoughtlessness. The old parable of
the thoughtlesS grasshopper who sang all
summer and starved when the season Of
death came is verified daily. Too many
young people fail to take an earnest view
of life, and too many suffer for their
thoughtlesSness. In this land, where
fortunes are piled up from poverty, there
is too often a tendency toward the belief
that this luck, rather than the result of
toll and industry, and, above all, pecu-
liar genus for money-making that few
possess.
The boy, therefore, imagines 1t will do
no harm if he idles for while. When he
is ready to settle down he can easily ac-
quire wealth by peculiar sharpness that
quite likely he does not possess. He
forgets or fails to comprehend that even
if he is possessed of financial genius it
must also be united with prudence and
moderate amount OF industry to achieve a
career. A great many boys and girls fail
to make themselves valuable to their
employer because their aim is not to do
their work WELL but simply to earn
wages. They are ever eager to be
through and slow to begin. Such work
men never rise beyond mediocrity.. Boys
IN this country are too often outstrpped
by foreigners in the shops and trades be-
cause they lack systematic business hab-
its. They have not been trained to their
work as the foreign youth has been, un-
der the sternest of all masters-necessity
Nourish kindly feelings; look on the
bright side of things and the best side of
people; think happy thoughts; smile
whenever you can; speak gently; find

Lee. while strongly intimating that he
was open to argument, declared that the
change is inconsistent with many things
to which he is committed Although
Senators Smith and Lee are now IN the
open, for weeks their friends in politics
and the Legislature have been opposing
the mass system and most all of them
have been advocating the adoption OF
the County and Legislative District Unit
System in the same manner that candl-
dates for Governor and all State officials
are nominated. Both Senators Lee and
Smith are county Democrats. Senator.
Smith will be a candidate to succeed
himself in the United States Senatorial
primaries, which will be held next sum-
mer, while Senator Lee will be a can
ddate to succeed himself. Therefore
both have a personal as well as political
interest in the solution of this big ques-
ton.

NO GREAT NEED OF
CHANGE IN PRIMARY
DATES.

There is bill in the State Senate
that has passed to its third reading
which provides for change in the dates
for holding preferential primaries
throughout the State-that such pri-
maries be held in other than "Presden-
tial' years on a date not later than
June LIST. unless the State Central Com.
mittees of the leading political parties
agree on an earlier date. If we must
have public or preferential primaries in
stead of the much more desirable conven
ton system, we can see no special ad.
vantage in changing the time for holds
ing them.
The present manner of selecting can
didates really makes two elections and
two election campaigns necessary, with
the extra expense and loss of time that
follows. Now to make the time be-
tween the primary and the actual cleo
ton over five months, it is easy to see
what abuses could creep in, and how
much more expensive it would be for
the successful candidates. The time al
lowed by law at present is long enough
to wage an effective campaign, because
the candidate has already canvassed his
own party for the primary and needs
only to close up the sore places in his
own ranks and see his opposite party
friends. We have seen no arguments
advocating the above change that appear
to make it especially desirable from any
standpoint, except that the advocates of
the early and late primaries claim to
have special interest in the farmer and
want to make the time best suited to his
working time. Early in the summer
will find many away on vacation in the
counties as wellas Baltimore City, and ear
ly or late will find the farmers busy, if he
deals in intensive farming. So either
way will necessitate the farmer making
sacrifices to go to the polls to cast his
ballet. There are many things that can
be done yet at Annapolis far more i'm.
portant than this proposed piece of leg
islatiou, especially when two State Con-
ventions spent much time several years
ago in considering this special feature.

higher scientific and impracticable edu-
cation, and such are too expensive to be
supported by the taxpayers of the State.
If we were large and rich we might
experiment in the dreams and vagaries of
higher education but quo bono. The
world has spent millions of dollars and
thousands of lives have been lost to dis
cover the North Pole, and one or two or
both found it, and another man found the
South Pole, and which has it benefited,
the world or the taxpayers in particular.
If we build State wide university as
proposed, nine-tenths of the people will
never receive particle of benefit from it,
but it will follow the beaten track of
higher education, with all its dreams
and imaginary vagaries.
Why have a dual system? Why have
a public school education? and great
big State University? Let us have one
or the other. The taxpayers cannot af
ford to pay for both, always bearing in
mind that the majority of taxpayers in
this State have life long struggle to get
the necessaries of life. Why compel
them to pay for the luxuries of education
which can only deprive them of some Of
their necessaries to contribute to the
higher education of few. 1t is the
duty of the Legislature of this State by
all rules of common justice and use and
honest economy to defeat State Univer-
sity scheme and abolish all appropriations
to promote schools and colleges which in
fact only means soft places and nice jobs
for few people at the head of it.

Bridge Case Will go to Last
Court.

IF the bill which compels the Board Of
County Commissioners to take over the
James W. LeGore bridge and roads is
killed or does not go through the pres
ent Legislature, then Mr.. LeGore, as a
last resort, will begin litigation. This is
just the step that Mr.. LeGore has re-
Trained from taking for years, because
he wanted to settle the question peace
ably. He declared recently, however,
that he was IN the fight TO stay, and
would carry the matter to the highest
court.
In this bill Mr. LeGore does not set
any fixed price that he is to receive for
the bridge and the roads. The bill pro
vides that the County Commissioners
shall appoinl two civil engineers, Mr..
LeGore shall select two civil engineers,
and the four engineers are to select the
fifth to make the complete committee.
These engineers are then to place the
actual valuation on the bridge and the
County Commissioners are to be gov
erned accordingly.

MARRYING FOR LOVE.

1t is an old adage that when love
comes in at the door, good sense flies out
at the window" While this was unques-
tionably the cynical utterance of some
cranky old bachelor there is infinitely
more truth than poetry in all saws OF this
sort For if there is on the face of wide
creation creature apparently bereft of
all sense and reason, it is the individual
who Is deeply IN love. There is not
enough common sense left in the average
brain under such circumstances to come
in when it rains unless the beloved one
has by chance sought shelter under the
roof beforehand.
Love is defined as "a pleasant illness"
and is apparently one to which most peo-
pie seem not TO object. Even second and
third attacks are not only ennured, but
to all appearances, welcomed.
There is a good deal of sentimental
twaddle INDUCED in anent this subject of
marrying for love- To do this is all very
we'll provided there is some reason be-
hind it; but to marry simply and only for
love is performance that might, without
any stretch of the imagination, be Charac-
ierized as idiotic. Poets, novelistS and
the troubadours of old have said and
sung the charms of the tender passion,
but philosophers and sages long ago
made up their minds that good, healthy
reason lasts longer and pays larger dvi-
dends than the most extravagant gush
that ever deluged the souls of the happy
young things who live only in the light of
each others eyes. But the lucky pair are
they who unite. reason and love, the
"reminiscences Of the dove with the uiS.
dom of the serpent.

THE DEAD SEA

The Dead Sea is not fresh water,
nor are there any fish in 1t. The
catholic Encyclopedias" says: "ihe
water in the Dead Sea is salt. Every
day the Jordan and other affluents
pour into it over 100000 tons OF
fresh water. There is. however, no
outlet to the ocean, and the sole agent
whereby this increase is disposed OF
is evaporation. The power OF the
suns rays in this great pit Is how
ever, so intense that, save for small
fluctuation between the wet and dry
change, despite the great volume that
seasons, the level of the sea does not
is added to it. In the water that re-
mains after evaporation solid matters
make up twenty-six per cent. of the
whole, seven per cent, being chloride
of sodium Common SALTY, the rest be.
ing chiefly chloride of magnesium, cal
cium and derivations of bromium. The
chloride of magnesium gives the water
a very loathsome taste; the chloride
Of calcium an oily appearance. The
specific gravity of the water is 1856.
The presence of so much salt explains
well the weird name of the sea, since
save for a few microbes, no organic
life can exist in 1t. Even fish from
the ocean perish when put into it.
