Hano on to Your Job.

Marshalltown Times-Republican
The man with a good job is lucky
man. He'd best keep it. He needs
it. The war is bearing hard on the
smaller incomes of this country. Cost
of living continues to advance much
faster than wages and salaries. Farm
products are at high mark. Manu-
featured products rise in price with
the cost of materials and labor. There
is plenty of employment. however,
which keeps the balance steady be-
tween the income and the outgo.
But a man needs a steady job and
must work at it every day II he is to
"get along" At that it is hard sled
ding" for the unskilled worker al
the minimum wage. A good job this
winter is a necessity. II you have
one. keep it. If you haven't. best go
looking for it right away. The coun-
try is prosperous with plenty to ear
and enough to wear, but 1t requires
steady income and thrifty disposai
of it to live decently and save DOL
lar or so. 1t is good advice. Don I
monkey with the buzz saw. Don {
leave good job or miss chance LOT
a better-but be sure 1t is better
from the angle of every day before
YOU are off with the old job and on
with the new. 1t is a long winter
season and coal and flour and staple
necessities cost money-more money.

TODAY,s BIT OF VERSE
A RAeAN,s PRAYER.

So much to know, little time to learn,
Before the woven thread of life be cut;
So many thoughts of ages gone to read,
So many visions of the years to come
And all the great wide world to wander in
Oh, gods of heaven, and Clotho, Atropos,
Grant me while to linger on this earth;
To seek the golden treasures of the past,
To dream of unknown wonders yet to be,
To feel the sweet approach of coming day.
To see the purple shadows on the hills
And hear the nightingale begin her song
And then. day, to leave the summer shores
And sail across the western sunset
To find the land of unfulfilled desires
Where all read has been and all / dreamed OF is;
Where from the mighty affairs OF the gods
The pleasant incense curls in wayering smoke
And all the glories Of an older world
Are melted into everlasting peace.
Juliet Wilton.

MODIFIED MARRIAGE vows.


to eliminate such strong terms as tobey' and
rs endow'' has been threatened or suggested so
many times that the recommendations soon to
be made in a report on prayer book revision
will cause little stir either within OF outside
the church. In the last few years many brides
and grooms have modified the service to suit
themselves, and many more would have conc
the same had they been prepared to take their
altar vows seriously. A small minority still
holds the old form hallowed-though such
faithful souls probably would admit that their
views are founded upon tradition, not rehg1on.
A promise to s.obey'' is nothing less than
ridiculous on the part Of twentieth century
wife. And husband S promise, with all my
worldly goods thee endow,'' is hardly less I'M
suited to the times, when multiplicity OF II
nancial interests or the total lack of them, is
likely to have figured rather prominently IN
the alliance.
Everything changes and in nearly every
field of human reasoning the change is recog
nized and met boldly. Why a change IN the
fundamental relations between man and wife
should have been denied SO long is one OF the
mysteries of everyday hypocrisy
An Id-fashioned labor contract, survival OF
the dav of manual arts. would not be applied to
a modern mill run by machinery. Workmen
now are even insured against injury. Their
working hours and wages change from period
TO period or year to year Laws change, ethics
change And so does marriage as an lnstltu-
ton. change That marriage is a sacrament, or
at least a ceremony Of religion, has kept the
change in the background to some extent, but
habits of thought breaking. The birth
control agitation is a sign of that; equal sui
frage is another And now the marriage con-
tract
I To break the dominance of a fixed thought
! is progress, whether the thought concerned
baseball or surgery. So little blue pencl!lnS
of marriage form is encouraging. Acceptance
of the proposed revision would shock nobody.

Anti-Hardine Newspapers.

Iowa City Citizen: Most OF the
anti-Harding newspapers will be
found to be democratic or indepen-
dent in politics. The Sioux City
Tribune. democratic, has compiled
list of republican papers 1t claims
are against Harding. In it are about
fifteen that ordinarily take some part
in political discussion. AS there are
over 900 newspapers in Iowa. with
perhaps seventy.five per cent. OF them
republican IN politics, the number
opposing the head of the republican
ticket is probably not larger than IN
the average Iowa campaign. Inc
same paper also publishes list of
about equal length of republican
papers it claims are ignoring the
Harding candidacy. In the list Is the
Rockwell City Advocate. Herbert Har-
woods paper. which supported Hard
ing in the primary. The effect of the
publication was seen last week wnen
Harwood printed broadside Tor
Harding. Evidently he had not INTEND
ed to be counted in the neutral list.
