CARE OF THINGS

Some people have way o making
their machinery and implements last
longer than others, and in nearly ev-
cry case it is because they take care
of them. 1t is just as easy to take
care of them. When you have
finished using a tool or implements
it should be put away-taken care of
Have place for everything and
see that they are kept in their place.
Look them over and if their is some
thing that needs repairing, no mat
ter how small, attend to it. Oil ma
chinery, to help keep it in good order.
A little paint will help the lasting
qualities of nearly any machine.
Above all protect your implements
from the sun, rain and winter storms.
1t is the proper care that you give
your machinery and tools that max
es them last, extend their service for

Representative James T. Lloyd OF
of the House, a democrat in oplitics
Missouri, one of the veteran members
and former chairman of the demo
cratic congressional committee, is not
very optimistic about Missouri. He
gave the other members of the
delegation cold shivers when he stat
ed publicly that there is not 1000 diff
ference between the republican and
democratic votes of that State. While
he stated that he thought the demo-
Gratis might carry Missouri, his words
were not tinged with enthusiasm and
apparently were not filled with great
hope. Coming from such source
it is little wonder that the democrats
are alarmed about that State

WOODEN SOLED
FLEXIBLE SHOE

Barna S. Kolklencr, an Hungarian
captain of cavalry whose military use
iulness was ended when he lost an
arm, has devoted himself since his
n capacitation to inventin a wooden
soled shoe that shall have the virtue
Of flexibility, and announces that he
has solved this problem, the hardest
that has confronted wooden soled
shoe enthusiasts.
His invention is a sole that, in
stead of being made of one solid
piece Of wood, is constructed of a
number of layers jointed together by
heavy oils of fats that thicken and
grip the pieces of wood together.
After countless experiments Capt.
Kohlener declares that wooden soles
constructed in this manner have the
elasticity of leather soles, and in ad-
dition can be made of old and worn
material worked over.

THE LITTLE OLD TOWN

There are fancier towns than the
little old town.
There are towns that are bigger than
this;
And the people who live in the tin
ier town.
All the city excitement may miss
There are things you can see in the
weather. town
That you can't in the town that is
small
And yet, up or down,
There is no other town
Like your little town, after all
1t may be that the street through the
heart of the town
Isn't long, isn't wide, isn't straight;
But the neighbors you know in your
own little town
With welcome your coming await.
On the glitterins streets of the gilt
tering town,
By the palace and pavement and
wall,
In the midest of the throng,
You will long. you will long,
For your own little town after ali.
1t is here by the stile in your own
little town
Father courtcd your mother maid,
1t was here in The vale in your own
little town
That he builded a house in the
shade.
1t is here on the kill in your own
little town
That the school and the book you
recall
Ev'ry step of the way,
So your memories say,
It's your own little town after all
For it isn't by money you measure
a town,
Or tie miles that its border extends
For the best thing you gather, what
ever the town,
Are content and enjoyment, and
friends.
If you live and you work and you
trade in the town,
In spite of the fact it is small,
You will find that the town,
That your own little town,
Is the best kind Of a town after ALL

NOT ASHAMED OF
HIS CLASS

Bryan declares that he is not ashans
ed of the deserving democrats" let
ter. 1t was written, he explains, to
man who held position outside the
civil services and the jobs he was
trying to get for the faithful were
likewise protecred by civil service
regulations.
Bryon misses the point These
places that he was trying to bag
the deserving democrats" were not
places which were to be treated like
ordinary political spois. They were
offices which the United States had
taken over, for temporary admins
tration, and for the benefit of the peo-
pie of Santo Domingo-who were to
pay the salaries They were, in eff
feet, positions of trusteeship, and they
should have been filled by the most
capable and energetic and altruistic
men who could be found to accept
them. To treat them as partisan
swag was to stultify the entire intent
Of our undertaking in Santo Domingo
to cast shadow of dstrust over ali
our relations with the peoples in Cen.
trail and South America, and to en-
danger the success of other and later
negotiations which were bound to
arise in our relations in that part Of
the world.
Bryan also misses the point in
thinking that he is the essential target
in the attack which Mr.. Hughes has
made upon the episode of the ode
serving democrats" Bryon was a
subordinate to Wilson, who had to
assent to the sending of any man,
deserving or undeserving, democrat
or republican, Jew Gentle, Greek or
bal barian to the Santo Dominican
customs service. 1t is characteristic
Of Bryan to take up the cudgels. But
he need not defend himself in the
matter. 1t is Wilson who requires
defence-and it may be noted that
Bryan says nothing about Wilson in
the case. He is apparently going to
let Wilson take care of himself.

Spring.

Spring is looked upon by many
as the most delightful season Of
the year, but this cannot be said
of the rheumatic. The cold and
damp weather brings on rheuna-

pleasant. They can be relieved
however, by applying Chamber

disclaimer Of responsibility for the
destruction of the channel steamer

United states IN the present subma

stroyed by German submarine, Will

All the evidence thus far obtained
indicates that the Sussex was torpe-

the case Of the United States at this

pieces of metal removed from the
hulk are parts Of German torpedo,
there is. as far AZ known, no cOnclu-
sive evidence at this time that the
metal fragments actually were re-
moved from the Sussex.
