Topics of the Times

Speaking Of silence, how mum Henry
Ford keeps.
Nevertheless the Coloners lamblike
trip to the West Indies suggests that
he will come back like lion.
Ernest Moore, candidate for lieu
tenant governor. has written to the
Jefferson Bee TO pledge himself against
the saloon in Iowa and for enforcement
of the prohibition law. Everybody
seems in favor Of 1t nov except Arthur
Brisbane.
Maybe one reason Frank Wood holds
his grip on the Tenth is that ne doesn't
talk too much.
AS a farmer Mr.. Deems evidently
figured that the time is not ripe to DO
blowing in Iowa with locomotive.
And as an engineer that the signals
were against him.
However, It is more or less hard for
the ignorant 1niddle-westerner to un-
derstand why Americans should be
warned out OF Mexico and not discour-
aged to sail the warning seas on armed
merchantmen.
Mrs. Wilson has sold her house Is
that an expression Of confidence in the
results Of the next election?
Mr.. Roosevelt says he has read zoe
books and pamphlets on woman stuff
rage. But what was the use? It liz
merely question of intelligence and
civic decency. If the women Of Mar
shall county are not as intelligent and
| decent as the men nobody has yet OBJ
served it.
| Brandeis is pronounced with the last
syllable as "ice." II ClifforIl Thorne
has his way Mr.. B. will be resting or
his last syllable pretty soon.
| The conclusion over Iowa seems II
be that we can't do better than keel
Evans and Deemer on the job.

that it was claret, but it looked like
it to me. That is the French way and
the German way to sip little Hquer

Brisbane looks exactly like Frank
Rogers, our bus man. If they were
twin brothers they could not look
more alike, indeed. He wears glasses,
the big tortoise trimmed kind, that
make him look like the devil thru
brush fence. do not see what any
body wants to wear those homeiy
things for. They can't be any better
than the ordinary gold trimmed kind,
unless it Is just to be odd. They must
be heavy and cumbersome and UNI
handy But Brisbane likely won't quit
wearing them, even If I do not like
them, SO I will let him go on with his

"Grundy county has been entertain

months, and all because of q measly

says the Grundy Republican. .Grundy
Center let an $500 school contract last
fall and the whole job, including the
selection of an architect, the brick, and
letting the contract for the job, was
over with in less than a fourth the
lime and fuss that has been devoted to
the text book selection for Grundy
county. There's a screw loose in the
text book business and the taxpayers
will pay in the end for all the rattle
that has been heard lately"
Noting that there is an anti-woman
suffrage organization at work in this
state and they promise to make the
campaign interesting the Grundy DEM
ocrat says When women get to scrap
ping among themselves Ii is a good
time for men to step aside until they
have it out. 1t is too bad that our state
constitution was not made to let the
women in the state alone vote on
whether TIE right of suffrage should be
extended to them. The large majority
of the men would be perfectly willing
to let them settle 1t among themselves
and there are a good many reasons to
believe that IL all Iowa women voted
suffrage would be defeated stronger
than the men will defeat it at the June
primary"

a GOOD INSTITUTION.


The State Free Employment Blu
reau, which was organized a few
months ago. is an institution that can
be Of valua bic service to the public
Its object is to bring jobs and Job hunt
ers together to the mutual advantage
or both. 1t has always seemed TO US
that the state was the logical agency to
keep floating labor supplied with work
If farmers will make use Of the bu-
reau's service and encourage their
hired men to do the same when they
are DESTROYS Of making change, the
bureau will soon become established
and people will use 1t more freely. II
bureaus were established in other
states, the value to the public would be
great indeed, for it would then be an

vicinity for the first time to get an
idea OF the opportunities it presented

He took off his hat and carried II in

ruffled by the wind and started down

OF reverence. The lad was not over 10

the boy remove his hat, had done the

The ingenious American housewife
has tried a number of experiments on
the peanut, Some Of which are very
disappointing to husbands who do not
care for the shell. Many home has
been broken UP because of the prac-
tice Of inserting peanut shells into
cake which presents a smooth. nn-
broken surface. This teaches US that
cake. like character, can sometimes bo
corrupted by single thoughtless act.
