THE PENNY PAPER MUST GO

Secretary Of Commerce Redneld probably knows more about manufacturing than any other Amer can who ever held Cabinet position. He is an expert in this field. His recent prophecy as to the 1cent newspaper is. therefore of more than passing interest. He calls attention to the fact that with the rising prices of news print paper and all the raw materials of paper manufacture the finished pro- duct-the newspaper-cannot remain indefinitely at its present price and declares it his belief that adyerts ing rates also must needs to be revised upward.
 The penny paper" has been great force for dem- ocracy in the United States. Thrty-fiye years ago the price ot a metropolitan daily paper was from SIP to ST a year. The of small income con- tented himself with a weekly, or-at best-a semi weekly" In these publications news was much con- densed and the space was largely given to articles written in an editorial style reCecng opinion rather than conveying facts.
 The penny paper changed all that. The man in the street" was informed of important happenings within few hours of the instant when they trans. pired and his opinion was based on terse account of the written in the moment when it became known-not on a lesurely and semiedtorial account, set down in an unhurried hour by weekly news writer who had from one six days to think it over. Public opinion became quicker in action. more potent and much more the real opinion of the people be- cause of the universal diffusion of the penny paper
 Nobody knows better than the newspaper worker that the development ot the penny paper of universal circulation has been accompished at prlce' so Tar as certain values are concerned; but no one knows better that 1t has been worth what it cost It made the newspaper a necessity at no matter what cost
 A few years ago the prospect Of an increase in the price of newspapers to the public would have threatened calamity to publishers. Today the news paper is as much necessity flour sugar. We depore it when prices on these commodities rise but we do not swear ofr' bread take to un- sweeteued coffee. So it will be with the newspaper it Secretary Redfelds iudgment-as appears neyita ble-is justified by the course of events.

 The answer would probably be the old accusation that the people have not advertised their dlctrlct enough that no one has ever had the enterprise to prepare for tourists in large numbers and that when this district ever got advertising IL was adVertseu as a dog racing country with bllzzards and winds and rains and schemes of one kind or another 10 make money, not as what 1t is' one or tne ioVtest places earth and one that supplies nearly all that people travel away Co
 The remedy for the present condition lies in the hands of the United States government now. II the Matanuska coal mines did not exist ana IL there were no agricultural mining possibilities the government by using its railroad for the purpose by advertising the region properly tourist resort and oy sup plying the proper ways of receiving tourists. fl no one else will--the government by those means can send crowds of visitors here every year and can create for its railroad fertile source of revenue.
 The best way in the world Go attarct tourists Is to get some tourists coming first The average travel The human being is as socabe animal as a sheep. He wants to travel in focks He likes the beautiful scenery and he loves fishing and hunt ing but the crazy thing also likes to have some girls around and the girls of the race want to have him around If you went to Heaven tomorrow and found no one there to greet you and dance and fish with you the chances are you'd buy ticket on the first train going south.

THE WASTES OF YESTERDAY

News comes from ShebOygan. Wis., that three corporations have been organized there to make furniture from sawdust. or rather from paper made from sawdust according to processes on which the federal forest laboratories at Madison is work ing This utilization Of sawdust, long waste" which the lumber industry found it vexing prob lem to get rid of illustrates how science goes on to convert into valuable materials the wastes of yes terday.
 Some of these days some one will write a most interesting true about the utilization of what former generations regarded as useless. It will find much material ii the mining industry be- ginning. perhaps with the shrewd Scotsman who found fortune in the waste dumps that the ancient silver miners of Athens left behind them unregarded for at least millennium It will show how Ameri- can copper. coal and other miners today work ing over and winning wealth from what an earlier generation left behind as waste.

THE SENATE AND THE NAVY
Chicago Herald)

The Senate has approved the building program of the pending naval bill without division party lines The provisions of the bill as it left the House have been notably and properly enlarged Ten battle ships have been added, and the numbers of other types increased Furthermore the whole program has been expedited. All the 157 vessels provided for are to be laid down within three years More than sixty are to be started this year and next.
 There is increasing public agreement that the proper standard of naval power for he United States is second without question"-a fleet greater than any other nation save one and equal in efficiency to aay The House bill fell far short of this standard The Senate amendments measure fairly up to it. The House should accept them The people realize the vital importance Of naval strength as the safeguard of peace and will be content with nothing less.

A GREAT MEASURE OF NATIONAL DEFENSE.
lNnw Ynrl. Mnrldl

There ought to be no doubt about the adoption by the House Of Representatives Of the Navy Bill which passed the Senate yesterday without roll, call The House bill marked long step forward in developing the navy but the Senate bill is much longer step. tI provides for four dreadnOughts and four batte-cruisers to be built next year and for a total construction of 157 vessels of all classes in the next three years.
 The adoption of this programme will make the United States second in sea power where 1t be- longs The Senate measure is the most important measure of national defense ever considered in time of peace and is worth to the security of the country than half dozen army bills. The one commanding lesson of this is power. and the the American people learn that lesson the less they will have to worry about.

herd has been added to until today it
is pronounced by experts to be one of
the very best Holstein herds IN the

enough for 40 cows, has been built by
Mr.. Austin. An expert dairyman of
Illinois came with the original herd Is

INDOOR LIFE MAKES FAT
TRY OIL OF koRElN TO KEEP
WEIGHT DOWN, OR TO RE
DUcE SUPERFLuoUS
FAT.

People who are confined within
doors and who are deprived of fresh,
invigorating air and exercise must take
precaution to guard against over
stoutness. as fat acquired by indoor
life is unhealthy and a danger to the
vital organs of the body. Lack of ex-
ercise in the fresh air Is said to
weaken the oxygen carrying power of
the blood, so that 1t is unable to pro-
duce strong muscles and vitality and
the formation OF unsightly and un-
healthy fat is the result.
II you are 15 or 20 pounds above
normal weight you are daily drawing
on your reserve strength and are con-
stantly lowering your vitality by car
rying this excess burden. Any per-
sons who are satisfied in their own
mind that they are too stout are adj
vised to go to Charles l. Joy a. Co., a
good druggist. and get box OF oil of
korein capsules, and take one after
each meal and one just before re-
firing at night.
Even few days treatment has been
reported to show . noticeable reduc-
ton in weight. improved digestion and
a return of the old energy; footsteps
become lighter and the skin less fabby
in appearance as superfluous fat dis
appears.
Oil of korein is inexpensive, cannot
injrre, and helps the digestion. Any
person who wants to reduce is or 20
pounds Is advised to give this treat
ment a trial.-Adv.
