The conscious student must fight Off
distractlng thoughts and fatigue. When
he becomes interested In his study,
however, the subconscious brain takes

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
A Reader-Question: Will Gov.
johnson, OF California, now that he is
Senator-elect from that State, have to
resign as Governor in March, 1917?
Answer: Though Senator-elect of
California, with his pay as Senator
beginning March, 1917, Hiram Johnson
can, legally and consistently, refuse
senatorial pay and remain as Governor
of California until December, 1917, the
date of the Opening session of TIE new
Congress. He would not have to sit as
Senator until then unless special
session Of Congress was convened in
March, in which event he would have
to relinquish his post as Governor.
There are not neutrality-suspicious. for
Gov. johnson acting as Governor of
California until Congress assemblies in
December, 1917. Hill, when Governor
OF New York, refused his senatorial
pay and retained his office as Governor
for nearly year after becoming Sena-
tor.elect. Hoke Smith, when Govern.
or of Georgia, acted in like manner on
becoming ,Senator-elect. Robert La
Toilette was elected Senator from
Wisconsin while serving az Governor
of this State, but desiring to round o. t
legislation coming before the next
Legislature he waived the question Of
senatorial pay and continued as Gov
ernor. So, legally and consistently
Senator elect Hirman Johnson can re-
main Governor of California to put a
finishing touch to important measures
and reforms started by him which
await settlement by the next State
Legislature.
Observation-Disclosures: If President
Wilson should die, who would be made
President this coming March 4?
Would Marshall be the one, to take his
place? Could electors choose whom
they wanted tor Answer: If the
President should die before the cleo
tors of November I, 1916, meet and
eleci, the Vice President would serve
out his unexpired term. At the meet
ing OF the electors they would be free
to elect anyone they pleased, a Demo-
crat presumably, since they were elect
ed as Democrats. Should the Presi-
dent die after the electors meet, it is
the opinion of the constitutional law
yers who have been consulted that the
Vice President you'd succeed to the
unexpired term and the full tern
succeeding.

Have you noticed how large num-
Der Of persons with whom you stop
to have little chat, speak Of the dark
blotches of human nature in the lives
of someone? We will not except the
person of the highest moral standing
in the community. Nine out OF every
ten persons in ten minutes talk will
bring up the defects in some ones
life, and one out OF q hundred may
possibly startle you by speaking Of
the good that may be found in most
every individual. There is no life
without its defects, neither without
its excellences and what a differ
ent coloring it would give to humani-
ty if the rule was reversed to what
it is. And, reader, it rests with you
and us TO start the reform, and with
such a good start as we may be able
to give it, we are sure il will be con-
tagious if we persevere. For when
neighbors speak naught Of i'll and
only laud the good that is in us we
will not be far from that glorious
period dominated the millennium.

We often wonder why it is so many
young men can be seen loating upon
our streets until late hour of night.
The fathers of these young men, many
of them at least, are numbered among
our best citizens. If their COW or their
horse or even their favorite dog was
away from home after dark they would
be out on search, but their own
children can roam the town all night
with apparently no effort being made
to find them.
