Bedding made "A game fight espec-
tally in the second half OF the game

overcome and not a single score could
be registered by the home team.

Belding had the ball within striking
distance of the goal but could not
summon the pep for a touchdown

We are too apt to underrate the
moral quality OF "a mans regular voca-
ton, his daily task, his business, to
look somewhere apart from this for
his opportunity for achieving char
acter and doing good. But there is
nothing else that is so determinative

that so furnishes hands for his bene-
ficence and feet to run his errands of
good will. John White Chadwick

A Deceiver Ever.

Is the post Office clock regarded in that
establishment as an official guide to the
time of day? Are the clerks who pour in

posed to measure their hours Of service
by its dial? Surely, SO long as the gov
eminent maintains timepiece upon its
most conspicuous tower structure 1t
should be willing to stand for the tale 1t
tells regarding the flight of the minutes.
And who could really blame postal
worker. on getting downtown this morn
ing and timing himself by the big clock
looming over Postmaster General Bur-
leson's head. and subsequently finding
himself at his desk forty minutes late, for
pleading as an excuse the obvious fact
that the hands were pointing to twenty
minutes past s when by virtue OF the
suns slant they should have been indi-
eating 9 O'Clock? Surely. 1t should be
the duty Of some trustworthy oficial to
keep an eye daily-perhaps, in view OF its
eccentricities, hourly-upon the four-facsd

The Recorder of Deeds.

The quadrennial pastime of picking a
recorder of deeds for the District OF
Columbia from beyond the local ju-is-
diction is now being engaged In oy
politicians of various degrees of de-
mocracy. acting as aids and advisers OF
the President. Everybody who is play
ing this game takes it for granted that
inasmuch as the office is in the strlctest
possible sense local a Washington man
cannot possibly be considered for 1t.
The fact that the establishment is
maintained by the fees paid by the
owners and buyers of District realty
and the organizers of District corpora
lions seems to make this peculiarly A
picking" for the outside patronage
seekers.
Some day perhaps the realization VIII
come in the high quarters where these
matters are given their ultimate con-
sideration that because long ago a
President of the United States made
a mistake in respect to the appoint
ment of the Districts recorder of deeds
and gave the Office to a politician from
outside Of the capital. as reward for
campaign work. this practice need not
be continued. Not even the successive
appointments of outsiders as recorder
for a quarter of a century have justi-
fed that initial wrong, or rendered
right the continued practice of be-
slowing the local place as political
patronage.
There is no more justification for the
appointment of New Jersey or a
Georgia man to be the recorder of deeds
of the District than there is for a
Washington man to be made post
master of Trenton or collector of the
port of Savannah. No one ever thinks
of putting a District man into one of
these places or one of the thousands of
similar federal positions throughout
the states. But when it comes to put
ting an outside man into an office
which is supported exclusively by the
fees of the people of Washington, and
which occupies the most intimate rela-
lions with the people of this District.
practically every state, through it's
designated patronage dispenser. has
candidate for the post.
Perhaps the President will be SO en-
barrassed by the richness of the offer
ings of perfectly good candidates from
the outside for the recordership that he
will finally solve his problem by re-
verting to the principles of home rule
for which democratic platforms have in
the past so eloquently declared and
putting into this position a true Wash
instonian. Surely one can be found who
will meet the requirements Of the
place.

bought. for example, In Maryland is TAX
ing chance Of going to court and pos
sibly involving his parents in serious
trouble.
The District Is peculiarly situated with
regard to all protective and defensive
regulations and laws. owing to the FACT
that it is largely dependent for the eff
fetiveness of such rules upon the will
ingness Of Virginia and Maryland to
follow suit and cooperate. In the mat
ter Of gambling, for instance. Washington
has cleaned house very thoroughly, ano
yet certain places remain open so near
the city, in other Jurisdictions. that much
of the good Of the reformation in the
capital is nullified. In the case. too. OF
the loan sharks, the complaisance of these
outlying jurisdictions offsets the benehe1al
effect of local laws to large extent
This Is a common experience for any
small community. and the need OF
broader spirit of interstate or interjurlsdlc-
tional cooperation Is constantly Demon
strated. The mutual dependence OF states
and cities is felt today more strongly tnah
ever before, and the present hope Is that
soon it will be possible to carry on re-
