In recent lecture to members of the
academic class DIR. Arthur T. Hadley,
president of Yale, declared that a man
without means who goes into politics
must either starve his family or betray
his country. He said: mo man in pres

right to go into politics unless he IS of
independent means" He may have the
right" but unless he has the money to
put up for the two elections required un-

the conditions in Mexico. In the City of
Mexico thirty-two ice cream vendors had
died up to Feb. 18th, after having been
compelled by the constitutionalist mill

The Democratic caucus held at the
courthouse last Saturday made no nomi-
nations, and there will be no opposition
to the ticket nominated the night before,
headed by Charles R. Coombs for mayor.
This is practically a citizens ticket, to
succeed the city government elected last
spring by Democrats and Republicans,
and its purpose will be to safeguard and
promote the interests of Belfast. In the
present business conditions it is felt that
politics should be set aside and all work
together for the good of our city.

Rev. Henry E. Dunnack, an Augusta
Progressive, sometimes called "the fight
ing parson," has been appointed State
librarian by Gov. Curtis, succeeding H.
c. Prince of Madison. This appoint
ment, with that OF another Progressive
as bank examiner, is generally accepted
as part of the bargain with the third
party to give the Democrats control of
the legislature on joint ballot. In the
case Of Mr.. Dunnack, however. his quail
fications for the office may have been
taken into consideration, as it is said of
him: He is an expert fencer, fine tennis
and hockey player and clever boxer.
He was State lecturer for Maine of the
Modern Woodmen and belongs to four
other fraternities.

That 1925 Per Acre Farm.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: A farm of
1891 acres near Duncombe chang
ed hands recently at 1926 per acre.
That is not an exorbitant price and
nobody seemed to be particularly in
terested in the sale. But a good
many good people began to sit up
and rub their eyes, when the fact
was recalled that that identical farm
was bought for $3.50 per acre four
years ago. Iowans are still looking
about in other states for good in
vestments. Some Of them are even
looking for oil in Iowa. But the
man who puts his money in Iowa
land that practically doubles in
price in five years, and who can
make big profit off the land as long
as he holds it, surely must be
hard to please, and perhaps he is
easily fooled. He is very apt to be-
come interested in an investment
which will eventually leave him
cleaned out"

COMPLAIN of Men in Jail.

Considerable complaint has beer
heard regarding the conduct of the
six men now confined in the county
Jail. Several women and young
girls passing through the park alone
have been subjected to annoyance
by the men in the jail who call out
to them and make loud remarks.
This practice should be prohibited

men incarcerated. They should be
made to behave themselves in 4
proper manner.

RIVALRY BETWEEN
WHITE EVENTS
Annual Affair at Shipley & Black $
Many Attend Despite the
Big Storm.

The annual white event at the
Shipley & Black dry goods store
Friday evening was almost rivalled
by the big white event of the win
ter out of doors. The heavy fall of
snow affected in a measure the at
tendance at this yearly display of
white goods at Sbipley & Blacks,
although between one hundred and
one hundred and fifty people braved
the storm and were present during
the evening.
The store under the skilful fin
gers of Mr.. Rasmus Peterson, the
decorator for this establishment,
was tastefully decorated with vines
and pink roses. This color scheme
proved very effective against the
background of white goods with
which the store was filled.
Lacey filmy embroideries, laces,
embroidered organdies, nets and
lawns were shown, together with
the newest things in white piece
goods. The dainty bits of machine
made ready-to-wear articles display
ed, bore close resemblance to hand
made products in underwear, petit
coats and waists. The summer
goods of this year will be conspic-
uous by the simpler effects and a
much smaller variety Of goods will
be seen since the European war
shuts out all imported goods which
had formerly been shown. made
in America" will be the stamp on
most of the summer goods and en-
broideries this season.
The clerks of this establishment.
in appropriate attire, were present
to display the goods and answer all
questions although none of the
goods was sold.
Music was furnished through the
evening by the Misses Rosalind
Cook, Grace Lee and Harry Ash and
the occasion thoroughly enjoyed by

Church Advertising.

Charles City intelligencer: Rev.
Frederick r. Leach, a minister OF
Fremont, Neb., has very readable
article in a recent number of the
Standard, a Baptist publication,
with regard to church advertising.
Among other things Mr.. Leach says:
1.-THE business world appreciates
the value of advertising in secur-
ing new business; and why should
it not make known what it has to
offer. The church is engaged in the
biggest business in the world. 1t
has what the world needs and must
have. The church must advertise
or 60 out of business"
We may scott at the broadness OF
this statement, but after all is 1t
not true. Take, as illustration, the
churches of towns we know; is 1t
not the church that is doing the
most advertising that is getting the
crowds. This advertising may not
b done through the newspapers,
but just the same churches do Il
whole lot of publicity work that is
nothing more than advertising.
Then, getting away from local
environment, we may point to the
evangelistic work Of Billy Sunday
just a few weeks ago Sunday held
q series of meetings in Des Moines
from which a large harvest Of dol
lars was gathered. The success OF
these meetings was largely predicat
ed observation-disclosures we'll plac'
ed advertising. Billy starts his
campaigns much the same way il
every city. First, his advance mar
