ut doesn't matter in the least how
fast we dig our own graves, so long
as we do not fall into them too pre-
viously." All Of which brings us to
the fact, physicians are continually
showing, that the American people
die before their time because they
are intemperate-not in drinking, as
the prohibitionists would have us be-
lieve, but in overworking and over
eating and everything. The sight of
a drunken man, even in the great
cities, is comparatively rare. Few
saloons, nowadays, will sell a drunken
man. But, 90 into "a restaurant and
watch people overeat. Note the fat
paunches, the hanging jowls, the dead
eyes, the equity walks of those you
pass, and you will not be astonished
at the physicians statements. Temper
ance is moderate indulgence. 1t is
just as bad morally and physically to
overeat as it is to overdrink In our
fight for temperance in drinking, we
must not overlook that other greater

Mememnto HOri"

The early Christian philosophers
frequently used the Latin phrase,
"Memcnto mori," meaning by that to
warn sinners of the approach of death.
The world moves on; Latin becomes a
dead language; ragtime dominates our
amusements and physicians of the
body tell us to forget the admonitions
of former spiritual advisers and ere

ask, except the end of things in which
everyone is more concerned than our
selves, even though we are the princi-
pie actor therein? DIR. Woods Hut
Crimson, president-elect of the Ameri-
can Academy of Medicine, says that
over-eating is the chief trouble of the
American people. He warns us to re-

the poison, the person left his corral
gate open and the stock ate from the
sack; while in another, the poison
was placed about the field, one half of
a pint in a place.
If properly used, there is no dan
ger whatever of poisoning any stock,
unless it would be poultry. This should
be penned. Scatter the bran as thinly
as possible over the ground. Ten
pounds should treat from two to five
acres. The hoppers eat it better if
there is only a flake or two in place.
Never should there be a mass larger
than a grain of wheat thrown upon
the ground.
The farmers in the grasshopper sec
lions should not allow these reports to
keep them from using the poison. The
use of bran is probably the best means
you have to protect this seasons crop.
There is much less danger of loss from
the use of poison, if properly used,
than there is from the hoppers.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
The War In Europe Has Stirred Up
Questions that People
Wisl Ask

Doubtless stirred up by the war
across the waters, a Maryville man
writes this paper asking the mean
ing of the Monroe doctrine.
For his Information it can be stat
ed That the Monroe doctrine is the
name given to a scheme OF national
policy outlined by James Monroe
G75S-1S3D, while president of the
United States. and promulgated by
him in his message to congress, dat
ed December 2, 1928. 1t embodles
the principle of non-intervention OF
European powers in the affairs OF
the western hemisphere, and has
been practically, though not formal
ly, adopted by the United States:
The Monroe doctrine was asserted
against Napoleon HIS attempt to
found an empire in Mexico in 1868
1867, and was frequently referred to
at the time of the boundary dispute
between Venezuela and British
Guiana in 1896. The following
passage is from President Monroe's
message: I'VE owe it, therefore, to
candor and to the amicable relations
existing between the United States
and those powers to declare that We
should consider any attempt on their
part to extend their system to any
potion of this hemisphere as danger
GUS to our peace and safety. With
the existing colonies or dependencies
of any European power we have not
interferred and shall not interfere.
But with the governments who have
declared their independence and
maintained it, and whose independ-
ence we have, on great consideration
and on just principles acknowledged,
we could not view any interposition
for the purpose of depressing them,
or controlling in any other manner,
their destiny by any European power
in any other light than as the mani
festation of an unfriendly DISPOSE
ton towards the United States.-St.
Joe Observer.

ENGLAND'S REALIZATION.

On the first anniversary of the
declaration of war against Germany,
Great Britain is said to realize the
gravity of the situation confronting
the allies. This has been realized by
the neutral world for weeks, even
for months. England is beginning
to talk frankly of the danger now,
and it is likely that this frankness
will help rather than hinder the en-
pire. 1t is good for nation to know
something of its vital weaknesses as
we'll Is it's vital strength. The Eng
| lish navy has fulfilled the hopes of
the empire thus far, but the failure
of the army to meet these hopes is
now frankly admitted.
Doubtless the troubles of the Rus
slams and the all but admitted fail
ure of the Dardanelles operations
contributed to the gloom Of the an
niversary. From the beginning 1t
has been hard for England to make
the Briton see that this has become
not war for the rehabilitation OF
| Belgium and the saving OF France,
but war for the very preservation
of the far flung empire. Warsaw
and the peninsula of Gallipoli have
helped even the little Highlander
| to see with startling clearness the
menace that hovers across the North
sea.
Unless the English stock has de-
generated as greatly as some of the
English sociologists assert, the bull
dog" of the traditional British make
|up will now come to the fore.
| frank admission of weakness has
been made. 1t should be good for
England's soul if that soul has not
been rotted by an easy century tor
the aristocrat and sordid one for
the laborer.-St Louis Republic.

A TRIAL BALANCE

Cass county spends on it's dirt
roads, county and township, about
$4,000 to $4,000 year. In ten
years this would amount to say
$500, 900 and in 20 years, $1,000
coo. In % years it would amount
to $3.50, 900. The roads OF TINS
county could be paved for $4,000 a
mile. There are 157 miles of county
road system. BY issuing forty-year
bonds as they Go in California, the
entire county road system could be
paved without its costing anyone a
cent more than it costs now and at
the same time have money enough
to keep the dirt roads in shape all
the time. 1t isn't question of more
money, this permanent road ques-
ton, but of spending the money we
have in the best way, and doing
work which will last.-Atlantic Tele-

BREAKING A PRECEDENT.

In calling on the proper authorlt'
les at this time for a report on the
condition of our army and navy
President Wilson has broken one Of
the oldest and best observed OF
American precedents. He is trying
to fasten the stable door before the
horse is stolen, instead of waiting
till afterward. He is making ready
to meet trouble, even while doing all
that he honOrablv can to avoid it.
instead of hiding behind curtain
of pretty phrases and hoping that
everything will come out right
Nor is this all. Secretary of War
Garrison, with the approval or per-
haps at the direct order of his chief,
has had the war college busy for
months working out permanent
plan for national defense. This
plan, doubtless with notifications
suggested by the reports now coming
in from the military and naval chiefs
will be laid before congress at the
opening of the next session. Without,
posing as a prophet, the Journal ven
lures to suggest that any military
plan backed by the war college and
the Wilson administration has an ex'
cellent show of being enacted into
law.
This is tough luck for the Roose'
velts and Gussygardners who have
been trying to make partisan issue
of the national defense, and get into
power on the cry Of democratic un.
preparedness" But the country al
large will rejoice that the admins
tration which had. the courage and
wisdom to cut the graft out of the
tariff and give the nation it's first ra
tional banking and currency law is
s to undertake the job Of bringing oul
navy up to full strength and modern
izing our land fenses.-ChicagC
Journal,
