EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Deeds, Not Dreams.

We do not JmdervaIue the written or the spoken word when we claim the greater importance of action. These things are in themselves a phase of &C., ton and the whole is greater than the part. We are not degrading art when we say that life is greater, for art in itself is an aspect, manifestation Of life. A thing of beauty, exquisite in form or color, is chiefly of worth if it induces a corresponding spirit of beau-- thought are chiefly great if they eduee greatness from the nearer or reader. In certain critical sense it may be said that a great poem is even perhaps more valuable, than a noble, unselfish action; the great poem may live through many generations, prompting nobility of deed to many yet unborn. The fine action may be wit messed only by one or two, possibly by none, and be soon forgotten. Yet for the man who does it the fine action is greater than the poem The action is life itself and the life is what matters. He who does the fine deed might be quite incapable of the written poetry or of producing anything worthy in plastic art; he may be no orator, no strong thinker. His deed is his pro- duction and is the thing of supreme consequence to him. Neither the thought nor its expression can render us great in ourselves, unless we can ourselves translate both into action when the moment comes.
 The inspiration of our thought may strengthen and impel others, so that they do glorious deeds. bear great sor- rows, overcome immense difficulties; but the main question for us is, can we do these things ourselves? The su- preme consolation for those ungifted in culture or intellect is that they can at least interpret greatness into action and express themselves in this, which is, after all. the noblest language.

DOCTRINE oF sAFErY.

Every day is bringing fresh revel- ations of the fact that the doctrine of safety cannot be justihably neg 1ected. The necessity of it is being shown in many lines and with it must be associated the idea of properly installing the facts into the minds of the young. Safety to a very large extent depends upon the individual and the attitude which Is taken by each and every one in regard thereto. The effort deserves to be thoroughly ; impressed upon the people for there by the desired results are going to be obtained.
 In order to bring the matter of safety in all avenues before the young it is a timely step which has geen taken by observing a safety day" in the public schools Of Philadelphia Such doesn't need to detract from the regular course of study, but like the fire drill 1t is capable of highly val uable results when emergencies arise It means the bringing of greater at tention to the importance of pre- vention and there is no better place to start it than in the minds of ths young.
 In all lines of business, on the highway, on the railroads, near cleo. trical equipments, and in fact il
 every place where danger may be in volved safeguards are insisted upol Hut such do not lessen the value 0 realizing and assuming personal re sponsibility as a means for insurin! safety.

REAL PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT

It is an inconsistent position which {, is taken by Prof. Henderson of New 7 Haven when he declares that 1t is the party machine which prevents the progressives from supporting the re- publican party, and which as result thereof demands the voting of the- gressive ticket and thereby gives in- direct aid to the democratic forces and principles which are directly op- posed to their own.
 This high purity stand has spent its strength in the opinion of a very large number of the progressives in many states. It is an effort to stand ! in a false light if the statement of Miss Edna l.. Spencer, a member Of the progressive state committee in Massachusetts is to be believed when Sshe says in sending in her resigna- .tion: T can no longer conscientiously 70 before the people and ask them Ito support the progressive ticket when with the party and known to the leaders there exists ring rule and Ibossism and g. disregard in party Management to the principles to which we as party stand pledged, and 8 tendency in certain districts to ex- ploit the party for democratic suc- cess. The real progressive movement is today represented in the republican party which will if put into power
 give us a new era of prosperity"
 This attitude is supported by MT.
 Borglum of this state. a former pro- .gressive leader. in coming out square, fly for the republican candidate for congress in the fourth district as the proper course for progressives to pur-
 sue.
 They have realized, they were work
 ing against their own interests. Not
 only democratic rule, but the ineffec-
 tive progressive course has made it's
 appeal to many others as well as to these. It is where their votes can do the greater good that they should go.

REPUBLICANS MET THE TEST,

Attention has been directed to the :curtailing of national extravaganza by the efforts of the republican senators Through their insistence many mill lions of dollars have been saved to the treasury of the country. It has remained for the republicans to ac- complish what the democrats have demanded, but which they lacked the courage to advocate and put through on their own initiative even though the very emergency prevailed for such a course.
 WhaS might have happened but for the republicans in the senate cannot be told, but the opposition they re- ceived indicated that entirely forgot ten had become the Baltimore plat form where it said: ''We denounce the profiigate waste of money wruns from the people by oppressive taxa tion through the lavish appropriation of recent republican congresses, which have kept taxes high and reduced the purchasing power Of the peoples toil." Yet when the test came i, was the republican minority whict forced economy.
 Economy was in strange coranan, in that democratic platform, but as the New York Post well says: It i: none too soon for the public to fl, its mind upon the duty of calling E halt upon that easy-going and lavist expenditure which has 50 long beer the rule. of which the democrat. justly accused their predecessors, bu which they have themselves failed t. avoid.

In this valley is situated the town of Sainte Menehould, of about 5000 pop ulation, and noted for its pork. It was here that Louis XVI was recognized by "Old Dragoon Drouet," on his attempt ed flight from France in 1791- Beyond this place lies the picturesque country which contains the famous forest of Argonne, well known from the cam paign of 1791.

KEEPING COOL.

trickle in summer weather, and I say, "No-yes-what is it?''
 I've been having a perfectly com fortable time. but Aunt Angeline won't let me continue.
 |" I think I'll make some lemonade," she says. T think there's nothing like lemonade on a hot day to make you forget the heat! Or maybe Times would be betteri Then I believe I'll sit perfectly still and see if I can't cool off I'm afraid I'll get my blood overheated and that something dread full will happen to me. I don't know when I've seen hotter day. How can you stand it? I believe I'd better put on negligee and lie down. But if I do that I'll have to go upstairs, and it's hotter upstairs! Doesn't that hammock make you warmer? I should think you'd be cooler in the wicker chair, Wouldn't you be cooler in the wicker chair?
 By this time I've lost all track of what I was comfortably reading. I get up and deliberately walk across the hottest suniest part of the tennis court, pursued by Aunt Angeline's walls to the effect that I'll get a sun stroke, and why on earth don't I stay time she is a damp, nervous wreck. When the men come home to dinner at night she says it's been a perfectly dreadful day, and she hasn't done a thing but try to be sensible and keep cool!

VALUE OF THE SUBMARINE.

Just as the war has afforded the opportunity for the trying out of the aeroplanes on land, so has it given the submarines 8 chance to demon- strate their effectiveness. Opinions have varied as to the success of this branch of the navy and as to the value of the service which it could render, but some very telling demon strations have been made in support of the underwater craft.
 The exhibition Of daring which was given by the British ships a few weeks ago whereby five Ger man vessels were drawn into combat and sunk was accom- panied by clever work on the part of the submarines both in the destruc- tive and rescue undertakings. It has again been demonstrated this week, and this time by the Germans, that the little vessels are an uuwelcome terror to much larger and more pow erful ships for while the three British cruisers which were sunk were of an obsolete type they were nevertheless warships capable of much valuable service and their loss is none the less important because they were out of date.
 THUS Iu6 Supmd11ne mas reSpOnQG0 to the demands made upon it by both sides. It has sunk four of the five vessels which the British have lost in the North sea and proved a means of picking off the enemy gradually while the German fleet is lying in protected waters. 1t has undergone some severe tests and like the war plane it is proving a most valuable aid in not only locating but in com batting the enemy.

A A ON BOYS"

The following parable on boys is
clipped from an exchange and repro
duced in the Register, but of course ii
doesn't refer to any of the boys here,
out maybe a copy of the paper will fall
into the hands Of some boy who will
profit by the amount of good sense it
carries with it:
Verify, in this day and generation
the father raiseth up his son on the
sidewalks. He groweth in knowledge
OF nothing ave cigarettes and cuss
words. When he attains the age of
sixteen he weareth trousers turned up
two turloughs above his feet and dis
playeth a pair of noisy socks, with
purple background and violet front, he
weare'h low cut shoes also a green tie
he looketh like a banana merchant on
the streets of Carlo; the inside of his
head resembleth the inside of a pump
kin; he falleth in love with a spindle
shanked girl with pink ribbons in her
hair, and craveth for an automobile
that he may ride her forth in the
spring time; he scattereth his pin mon
ely like a cyclone scattereth a rail
fence; he stitch up nights to write
poetry, and giveth no thought to the
multiplication tables; his mind RUM
eth to the varieties of life, and not to
the high cost of living and corn bread;
verify he needeth a board applied to
the southwest corner of his anatomy;
he thinketh his father a plodder and
his mother a back number; he pictur-
eth to himself great riches suddenly
acquired; re dreameth of steam yachts
and private ears and thinketh himself
the real stuff; he butteth in where he
is not wanted; he criticizeth his elders
he purchaseth sheap perfume and
smelleth louder than a billy goat;
when he groweth up he getteth a job
in a store at a 800 a day,
