GOING UP

The constant increase of court
expenditures is inexplicable to the
burdened Taxpayers who have not
gone to the trouble of seeking a
solution based upon investigation.
The trouble primarily is traceable
to the legislative mill which grinds
out an endless quantity of useless
and often harmful laws. Such hodge
podge products of the legislative
machinery leads directly to increas-
ed court business. Another bad
practice of legislative bodies is
that of paying more attention to
party politics and the spoils Incl
dent there to than to the real bust
mess that should have considera-
tion. There certainly should be
some plan adopted whereby legis-
qatures will attend to making laws
and not to seeking spoils.

BANKERS AND FARM
ERS MUTUAL FRIENDS

Bankers are trying to- get in
closer touch with the. farmer, and
their efforts are bound to produce
results profitable to both. This pa
per, again and again, has urged a
closer cooperation between banker
and farmer, and the cry has, been
echoed all over the country. The
Missouri Bankers Association is
making first definite step in CO.
operating with the state board of
agriculture and other organizations
to organize rural associations in
every county in the state for the
purpose of working up sentiment
for good roads, farm, advisers, bet
ter schools and more scientific
methods of agriculturel Men will
represent the, bankers association
in each county, and will be charged
with the duty of organizing the
county associations. The state board
of agriculture then steps in, and
will send speakers and workers to
aid. The railroads will also lend
assn stance. The new movement is
the dawn of the area of rock roads
and the death knell of the little
backwoods schoo lhouse on the hill.

THINKING

Few men really think, although
each would deny the accusation.
man is supposed to be a
rational thinking animal, thinking
is actually the hardest work and
the rarest he does. We hear a thing
ordinarily, and Immediately form
an opinion about it. Usually self-dn-
terest is at the bottom of our con-
illusions. We are tolls, for instance,
that woman suffrage is a good
thing and VIE ought to have law
allowing women to vote. Do we look
into the matter? Do we study the
arguments for and against woman s
suffrage? 1t is the same with the
tariff, prohibition, the unions, the
Mexican situation the European war
in fact everything we have anything
to do with. How much more ration
al it would be to hold up our
judgement ON a question until we
have had an opportunity to study it
from every angle. Then form an O.
pinion and stand or fall by that O.
pinion, until we learn some thing
of which we have been in ignorance
that might change our minds on
subject Not to be open to convic-
ton is pig-headed,. Narrowness is
the bane of our whole system OF
civilization. Let your mind be open
to every argument and think-thinl
for yourself.

AFFORD
TO ADVERTISE

Jud Shaw sold shoes and sealing
wax, and lamps, fishpoles and glue,
tobacco, candles, gum, and tacks,
slickers, and sardines, too; dry
goods and hams were in his lime;
he dealt in peas and beans; he
kept the general store, in fine, sold
oueralls, and jeans; but Jud, SONS
how, he wasn't wise-"Couldn't af-
ford to advertise"
Not that he harbored any grudge
against his home town sheet; he
was, as anyone might judge, kind
ly man to meet; his customers, he
treated fair, and yet he prospered
mot; his goods were honest, one
would swear-he simply was forgot ;
for Jud, somehow, he wasn't wise
-'tCouldn't afford to advertise.
Mail order firms from out OF
town, much wiser in their day,
paid literally fer their renown, and
gathered in the hay; their cata-
logues went everywhere; they adj
vertised for trade; their name went
forth with trumpets' blare, and, ah,
the coin they made; they We're SC
wise; couldm t afford t'advertise.
Now, Jud's stuff it was just as
good; his prices were the same;
the loss was ours; he simply would
not spread abroad his name; though
towmfolks might have much prefer

JUDD Shaw they had never heard

somehow, he, wasn't wise ouldn't

And the world will admit that
the gopher knows how to use his
suitcase to advantage. He can go
out and pack up a bushel of ear
corn, am armful of stocks and roots,
a. couple pecks of miscellaneous veg
tables and carry them off with the
greatest of ease and more Or less
sang froid
By trade the gopher is subway
artist, but he likes to do a little
mound building also and nothing
so fills him with delight and gem
uine mirth as when the honest farm
or boy, chasing the cows out of
the back forty, stumbles over ONE
of his young mountains and gets up
with a cracked neck.
The gopher is not loved to amy
great and passionate extent by
the farmer and in most States
there is a price placed ON his
scalplock, but the gopher makes
it his business to keep his hair ON
his head and he attends to this
matter SO we'll that no great num-
Der of people get immensely rich
collecting gopher bounties and amy
one who succeeds in catching this
pernicious insect earns all the
money received, as the gopher cam
smell trap 800 yards off and he
will go out of his way to find
it SO he cam bury it so deep that
the trapper will have to use a
dredge to dig it out.

The gopher is a small chunk of
animal matter with chest measure
ment like a prize-figihter, a, bald
headed tail the size of wart, a
disposition similar to a bulldog in
AN epileptic fit and for it's size CON-
tains' more general cussedness than
amy beast that roams the plains.
Besides this the gopher has a
quartette of front teeth which woult
look better and more nearly fit a
horse, and they stick out into the
atmosphere like a bunch of sore
toes. Also the gopher has a beauti-
full, wide, sweeping eNpanse of
mouth which would do credit to a

BRAIN FAC AND WAR
ARE DEMORAL|z|NG

Modern man is a top heavy be-
ing whose brain is disproportion-
ately superior to his other organs"
says the New York Medical Jour
nal, and then goes to prove that
the war in Europe is the result of
brain flag. The Journal believes
that the stress and hard mental wo1
of this age tended inevitably to
the reassertion of the primitive
impulses. Something had to snap,
and when it did the result was the
war. Other nations accuse Ameri-
cans for living too fast. But they
do not see that we combine pleasure
with work to such a degree that, if
we don't let down on the play, we
are apt to remain normal human
beings. For instance, the tired bust
ness man takes couple of hours
from the office and goes to the
ball grounds, where he yells like a
Comanche Indian, bowls like a
steam siren. cusses. the visiting
team and throws pop-bottles at the
umpire. The women relieve the
tension of modern life by dancing,
or motoring, or strenuous physical
exercise on the golf course or ten
mis- courts. The use of tobacco is
mans first aid toward relief of taut
nerves. 1t is said that the sudden
stoppage of drugs would result in-
evitably in nation wide irritable
ity that would result in a possible
social upheaval American men work
hard and live fast 1t is better they
should find relief in harmless amuse
ments and stimulants than to go on
until something snaps and the re-
suit is a war.

it couldn't move itself let alone
move others. And whose fault is
that? Advertisings? Not on your
life. It's the fault of the man who
is paying for the advertising. Go to
his store, and the chances are that
you will find it slowly expiring
from dry rot. The goods will be
dirty and mhept. The shelves will
he dusty and neglected. Even the
boss will have crouch, and the
crouch never attracts buyers. Life
is too short to waste with the wood
en- faces. 1t isn't the advertising
that's expensive, it's the lack of
push that's behind the failures.

The Reformer's Triumph
(After "Hiawatha.")

CATER 'Hiawatha.")
Forth into the Legislature
Marched the valiant Reformer,
Full Of fire as any zealot.
Loud the TRUSTS began to clamor;
do not harm u.s., o Reformer."
And the very constitution
Trembled as it plead for mercy,
But he needed not nor heard them
For his thoughts were soaring else
where,
Wandering amid the jungle
OF delirious legislation.
Pondering many weighty questions,
Long he waited for hearing;
Waited long for recognition.
Then he introduced measure
Making everything illegal;
Sought to place ban on treating;
Sought to do away with hat-pins;
introduced a bill forbidding
Anyone to use the "makings;;"
Boys from playing ball on Sunday;
Bands from giving Sunday concerts
Folks from fishing on the Sabbath;
Women folks from wearing feathers
Regulating the free lunches,
And the ladies' bathing costumes.
Having introduced thee measures,
Long he rested on his laurels;
Thought himself the great Reform
er,
Thought himself a great Joy-killer,
And, returning to his village,
PLANNED banquet i'm his honor.
To amnihilate the Pardon Board
The Lobbyists and others
He scored his foes
With might and main
Crying, Spare me, o Reformer"
AnG only spared his brothers.

THE COUNTRY EDITOR
MIGHT HAVE BEEN

He might have been a millionaire,
And won financial fame,
Or sat i'm a directors chair,
Had money been his aim;
He chose instead t,o spend his years
In service poorly paid,
And with the paste pot and the
shears
"A humble liWihg made.
He chronicled the towns events;
The local goings-on;
His fellow townsmen's hopes and
bents
Inspired his lexicon;
He felt the public pulse that beat
Around him, and he tried
To make his little country sheet
IA thing of local pride.
Unselfishly, with all his heart,
He strove but to- upbuild
His town, of which he was a part,
With great ambition filled
He spoke WE'LL of his FELLOW men;
He praised when praise was due;
He welded but kindly pen,
And no reward he drew!
