Why Not Tag West

great many Stase legislatures have
given consideration TO bills taxing bache-
lors and many convincing Arguments have
been presented why men who escape
mstrimony should pay q penalty. bat
but why not tag them a. Q more pain
less and effective method Of .extermi-
nation? II the bachelors were tagged
the widwos could easily find them and
Cupid would do the rest The bachelor
u naturally timid, bot under the encour-
aging influences OF q merry widow he can
easily be led 70 the altar, for there 10 no
more helpless craft afioat than . lovesick
swain who has passed the age of disrre-
ton, and the little imp that plays ping
pong with human hearts has no more
capable ally than a woman who loves
ct second sight, for experience makes
Cupid subtle and bold.
The women have tag days to promote
most every other public enterprise, and
why not q tag day for bachelors? We
have in West Virginia spproxim ately
thirty tn Dussnd bachelors and an equal
number Of widows. Why not get them
together and solve two vexatious prob

POPE P|USxDE


The Pope, great head Of the Roman
Catholic Church. died Thursday morn
ing about 2:3o. He Was eighty years. of
age and had suffered i'll health for . long
time His recent illness commenced
about the time of the European war and
be worried much because Of it,
The pope. from his sick bed, had cd
dressed the following 70 the whole
world:
AT this moment when the whole Of
Europe is being dragged into vortex Of
of . most terrible war, with its present
dangers and miseries and consequences
to follow, the very thought Of which
must strike every one with grief and
horror, we, whose care 10 the life and
welfare of 30 many citizens and peoples,
cannot but be deeply moved and our
heart wrung with bitterest sorrow.
And in the midst of this universal
confusion and peril We feel and know
that both fatherly love and apostolic
ministry demand OF ne that we should
with all earnestness turn our thoughts Of
Ohristendom thither whence cometh
help-to Christ, Prince of Peace and
meet powerful. mediator between God
and man.
I'VE charge therefore the Catholics
of the whole world to approach the
throne of grace aud mercy, each and
all Of them, and more especially the
clergy, whose duty furthermore it will
be 70 make in every parish ~ their
bishops shall direct, public application 90
that the merciful God may, as it were,
be wearied with prayers Of his children
and speedily remove the evil causes of
war, giving TO them who rule to think
thoughts of peace and not affection.

INDEPENDENCE DAY"
Is Being Celebrated With More Show of
Real Patriotism.

One hundred and thirty-eight years
have passed since the old liberty bell in
Philadelphia pealed forth the joyous It'd,
ings that a new nation was born, and
during the many decades which have
elapsed, the interest in the celebration
of the GLORIOUS Fourth" has not waned
As the day on which was launched the
first experiment on an extensive scale OF
a republican form Of government July 4,
Il l776, viii ever stand unique in the an
nails OF history and that its anniyersa-
ries should be occasions of jubilation, on
which our native pride and enthusiasm
/ finds vent in manner closely approach
ing the bombastic and boisterous, is not
matter of surprise.
/ Indeed, in the light of our present
day influence and progress, little over
exuberance on our part is but natural,
and may readily be forgiven. In recent
years. however, saner note has been
struck, and the day is now celebrated
with somewhat less noise and hullaba-
loo and more dignified demonstration of
genuine patriotism.
While we would not wish to wholly
check the effervescence of spirits which
| is an especial Characteristic of American
youth, much may be gained by directing
such manifestation into a deeper chan
mel of thought and purpose. Symbol
ism and pageantry are valuable adj
juncts, and this year two especially sig
nificant centenaries furnish material of
especial value and interest.
1t is somewhat paradoxical that al
though the primary cause of our re-
joicing was the freing OF the American
colonies from the exactions of the moth
err country, there is to-day an equally
important reason for felicitation in the
attainment of century of peace be-
tween the two great English-speaking
nations and the spirit of amity and
brotherhood which now characterize
their relations.
Again, the centenary of the writing
of the "Star Spangled Banner will add
to the glory of the flag which we so
love and delight to honor and which
claims our veneration for its long free
dom from dishonor and defeat. Fifty |
years ago a dark stain was washed from |
its folds by heroism and sacrifice. What |
better time can there be than the Fourth |
of July to put into practice a resolu-
ton that henceforth our patriotism shall |
be so exalted, our individual and collec-
tive effort so powerful, that all the evils
which strive to hide beneath its stripes
and stars shall be eliminated, and ours
shall be in the highest and truest sense
the land of the free.
Our national lines have indeed fallen
in pleasant places, and it is meet that
the heels shall chime, the cannon roar
and the flags wave on the recurring days
Of our nation, Lest we forget-lest we
forget"
