Not Too Proud Now

President Wilson was evidently stung hard by the criticism that followed his too proud to fight speech at Philadelphia when he have thought that all the people of the city of Brothery Love were still Quakers. The president few days ago gave us a revised version of his opinion O the manner of dealing with men in certain circumstances. But per haps what the president said only flight of rhetoric of which he is fond
 MT Wilson said he cannot retain his moral influence except by occasionally knock ing him down, if that is the only basis on which he will respect me then for the sake of his soul have got occasionally to knock him down."
 The president did say that he was undergo ing course of physical training that he would be well prepared in case the other fellow might show resentment to such saving of his soul and do some ounter-knocking. We presume that Mir Wilson in his fancifu flight had in mind the application of his doctrine to international relations But if applied it of course, trouble. And if applied in private life it means end of difficulty If ones neighbor proposes to knock him down for the good of his soul and because he declined permit him to exercise his influence him, we should be living in rotous and strenuous age.
 One might to put his soul in his neigh bors keeping. He might think that his neigh Dor highly qualified morally to be the judge of him or exercise control his soul and he would certainly any attempt of a self satisfied or an arrogant neighbor, convinced in his mind of his own moral superiority, to force his influence upon him. As have intimated, if MT. Wilson's latest theory should be put general practice the police would be kept busy.
 Perhaps MT. Wilson having been q school master believes that touch of the birch then the best means of correcting obsteperous boys. At any rate think that Mir Wilson had better confne his new doctrine to knocking MT. Bryan into a cooked hat d procedure that he though highly necessary. And perhaps MT. Bryan thought that the president would undergo another change of mind and therefore he fled the cabinet for fear resisting the prcsi- dents moral nfluence, he might be in peril of the punishment which MT Wilson had upon a time suggested to MT. Joline of St. Louis the proper for Mir. Bryan

UNCLE SAM'S ARMY ADAPTS ITSELF ID
 WAR AUTO TRUCK

Extremes in daily temperature make travel by motor truck oyer the barren wastes of northern Mexico a hardship to American drivers en- gagged in General Pershing's Villa hunt. Following a day of scorchng heat will come a night of chills and frost It. is common for drivers to postpone advances in the morning until the suns warmth has melted the ice in the radiator. Despite such handicaps, the manner in which the more than 300 American made motor trucks are being managed is a trib- ute to American ingenuity
 Such is the word brought back from the Mexican border by A. H. Leavitt, assistant manager of truck tire sales for the B. r. Goodrich company. Akron, Ohio. who has re- turned after an interesting stay at Columbus. He was there to assist in the opening of a new Goodrich truck tire distributing store, as a convenience to the government in se- curing quick service in tire renewals. C. R. Serfass, Goodrich service man, is stationed at Columbus
 'l had an opportunity to talk with number of well known newspaper correspondents while in Columbus, ' states MT. Leavitt, writers who had made close observation on various European battlegrounds before being assigned to the Mexican border Without exception, they declared that the United States army is handling motor trucks far more efficiently than the British, French and German field forces. Uncle Sans men are doing this despite their comparative ineXperience with motor trucks adapted to actual war conditions For years the European armies have learned to rely on motor trucks as important war aids. But, according to the newspaper men at the border the American trait of alertness ir rising to the emergency is making 1 up for lack of experience and ad- vance planning.
 Tn Europe the road conditions fol motor trucks are most ideal II -hN-N4NO tiit U uNh lIdlIS llldl DdN 1 penetrated the interior for a distance of 100 miles and more, have on countered difficulties that are mos extreme in hardship, both to trucl equipment and drivers.

THE RAINY-DAY BOX
 By Pauline Stone

Oh the rainy-day box is the joliest box That ever you'd see: It's just brimming full of the loveest toys or toys of all ages, for girls and for boys And it's locked with great big key. on sunshlny days wemust all keep away, But, as soon the rain, Instead of a whine scowl a bout Away we all skip with song and shout To the rainy day box again. And mother comes down with the great big key, And, like Santa Claus opening his pack She opens the box for all to see For Peter, and Dobin, and Baby, and And we play till the comes back There are puzzles, and tops, and paper dolls too, And dear little stove that will cook There's dog and rabbit-make- bIieve ones, of train and steamboat small wooden horse, And beautiful story book. And there is splendid old drum that we love We give it some pretty hard knocks Ard we have such wonderful times together There isn't minute think the weather- Three cheers for the rainy day box.

The Dilemma of the Old Guard

Some of the eastern newspapers claim be in possession of information that the leaders of the old guard believe that having played Hughes against both of them from the presidential and secure the nomination of dark horse from among the multitude of "favorite sons" and so have candidate that may be amenable to orders from the guard. We do not know whether such flattering uncton has yet been laid by the members of old guard to their nominee is not valuable property He is of no real value until after he has been elected
 It is said that the Hughes boom was started to put Roosevelt out of the way It is quite possible that the Hughes sentiment aroused is now beyond the control of the old guard that though may not result in the nomination of Hughes it will not be under the direction of the old guard and will not be easily diverted to any favorte son. Mir Roosevelt would be much more likely be the beneficiary of a disspated Hughes boom
 The old guard is said be telling the delegates that whoever will be nominated Chicago will be elected That statement is admission that there is strong feeling throughout the country that Roose welt is stronger than other The reactionary leaders have sound basis opinion that any candidate who be chosen Chicago can be elected Among the republican there is a very strong feeling for Roosevelt and it is far from unlikely that m general miX-up of the situation which the old guard is planning the delegates will turn to the col on a platform of Americanism and lead united

Personal Use"

That there IS gross abuse of the privilege left to citizens of Arizona obtaining having in their possession intoxicating liquors for their personal is manifest every hand
 There may be question to just what per sonal But know things that it does It may be that may liquor members of his household but when he goes beyond that he certainly against the prohibition amendment One give intoxicating liquor to another whether friend stranger any more than he sell it. It is certainly violation of the amend ment to serve an automobile party; it is a plain of orgy in his apartments in rooming house hotel, in d roadhouse brotheI Each party to gathering of that kind might have his liquor and drink but when it is passed around somebody is vio lating the law by giving it away.
 One may keep liquor in a private locker in a society a club but when he permits others than himself to drink he is plainly violating the prohibition amendment. And such violations have des cribed above of frequent occurance; they so ing Phoenix and the vicinity all the time, every day and night. And most of the violators have foolish notion that they how have the personal use decision behind them.
 Our officers vigant in their efforts to prevent the introduction of liquor to detect and punish those operations is that in which it is being given away in way another by people who do not ordinarily regard themselves lawbreakers.
