WEDDING GIFTS IN
HIGH LIFE

The proposal has been made for
nation wide penny subscription for
a wedding gift for Mrs. Gait, the
presidents fiancee. "a penny from
every citizen" is the slogan
Whether or not this Is attempted
the President and Mrs. Gait will
have the usual superfuity of gifts
seen at high life weddings. There
are many people, niggardly with
charities, wac will make these super.
fuous offerings to notabilities. No
president should ever need financial
assistance for the rest of his life.
He will be amply able to buy every
thing, except the unpurchasable gifts
of friendship and love.
Instead of penny from every citi.
zen for Mrs. Gait, why not for bleed
ing Belgium?
The assemblage of gifts at the
White house will represent mixed
motive There will be the usual
welcome offerings of real friendship.
In some cases the gifts will carry
the faint of the social game. The
autograph letter from the prospect
i've Mrs. Wilson is anticipated, as
an heirloom to be handed down.
Then there may be possible invita-
lions and valuable ties with nigh
life. Climbing families having daugh
tiers to marry or social nights to
reach, must not neglect these chanc-
es. A hundred dollars for we'd
ding gift is merely an incident. Such
gifts are burden. A single tea
spoon standing for real affection is
better than mahogany sideboard
with musny sentiment or selfish feel
ing behind It.
The suggestion of the penny sub
scription to Mrs. Gait Is no doubt
prompted by kindly feeling. But 1t
should not trench on the fields OF
real philanthropy. Our charities
have a hard struggle to exist. Other
causes should prove their vital nee
essity before they trench on the al
ready burned over fields of benevo-
lence.

A NAPOlEONIC
VETERAN

In Wilma which is temporarily in
the possession of Germany, lives Pc.
ter Laptieff, one OF Europe's "old
men," for he was borne in the year
1888. When Napoleon invaded Rus

in need Of a guide. But the inhab-
itants had fed. Laptieff's family aid
ing in the recesses Of forest. But
curiosity drew him, and he hid in
a tree to watch the invaders. He
was seen. captured and taken before
the emperor, who ordered him to act
rs guide to the vanguard of the ar
my. This ne did for 80 hours and
then escaped, He fought against
both OF his cOuntrys present allies;
against the French at Borodino, and
against the English in the Crimea.
Tired of making history, he took to
making bricks, but now lives in re-
tirement with ais son and grandson.

THE ELECTION

| TIE ELECTION
The result Of the election shows
conclusiyely the peoples desires, and
should now be accepted in good faith
and all citizens should get behind the
officials elect and work for the ad-
vancement of the city. The result
demonstrates conclusiyey that the
Betterment League was entirely out
of its sphere in this campaign; that
! the people of Logan want to fight
and settle one thing at a time, and
that after fighting, settling, and bury.
ing an issue there is no occasion for
| fighting It over again at the next
election.
The Retirement League campaign
motto OF last June Vote tne City
Dry now, and the City Hall Dry in
the FALL" was far fetched, totally I'M
called for, an insult, and one that re-
acted to the detriment of the League.
The implication of course was that
certain OF the city officials were booze
fighters, and upon analysis the facts
would not support single instance
of the kind, hence the reaction. The
people will not stand for such a brand
of campaigning and gave evidence
thereof in no uncertain terms.
Nor should the inference be drawn
that the people have relaxed in their
belief in prohibition. To that prin.
ciple they registered their tremen.
dous protest last June, and that pro-
test stands today, and the officers
should, and no doubt will, be found
carrying out the spirit of that YER
dict. Any laxity in this respect will
be clearly in violation of the peoples
expressed will, and will be sad day
for any official who looks upon the
June verdict lightly. Scores of
citizens, just as good in every re-
spect, and just as ardent prohibition
lists as any who voted the Betterment
League ticket, voted for the victors
in Tuesdays election. They did II
honestly. conscientiously, believing
in their very souls that the Better
ment League had no place as po-
litical party, and that 1t was there
fore entirely out of its sphere.
The police force should realize
That the eyes of the people are upon
them. They have made mistakes OF
course, and some OF us think we
could appoint more efficient men, but
they are the officials. they are on the
Job, they know how the people feel
and what they want, and vigilence
should be the watchword every day.
II Logan Is the cleanest city In the
state the police force can keep 1t so,
IL It is not they can make 1t so.
Gentlemen, it is up to you, and all
good citizens it Is hoped will stand
behind you. Any member of the
police force found recreant to duty
should be given swift and early
release.
Mr.. John Quayle comes into the
City Commission as the new man.
II Is true he comes as a representa-
tive OF the other side as far as the
campaign is concerned, but now ne
Is the representative of all the peo-
ple, and will be received with all due
courtesy by the mayor and hold over
