Parts of the Tribune outburst of
haTd-losingness in Friday mornings
TTib are really amusing. California
ought to have given the Republican
ticket a great majority" says little
old Triblets. Now it's your own fault
that it didn't, Tribby. You should
have run out there and made that
fact known. ..
Further, the spasm states that how
California could have voted as it did
is a question beyond normal intelli-
gence. Pardon, but is the Tribune,
Judging from the past few weeks, in
a position to pass on normal intelli-
gence"?
And then the Trib admits that
California is the boob state of the
nation. Some gent once said that it
takes a thief to catch thief. Does
it take boob to judge boob? Meb-
be so, Hiram!
Last, but not least, friend Trib gets
real poetic and quotes from Ruddy
Kpling to this effect: "QUem Deus
volt perdere, pF-r-ius demenstat,
That sounds like the name of some
new soup, but, translated (according
to the Trib), it means: when people
insist upon getting it in the neck
they are first made dead from the
neck up"
On the other hand, 'Zpius Ouch
peanuts, bananas unit demitasse. If
we remember rightly, Edgar Allen
Longfellow once said that. Trans
lated, it means: eve sort of think
that there is nobody home at the
Tribune" Or, if there is, they have
lost their neck, head and all.

progress has been made, owing to too heavy rainfall and low temperatures, with resulting hindrance to cultiva- ton and some check to the growth of the plant, but this has been more than offset by improvement in the western and eastern belts.
 In the west the weather has been favorable for both growth. and cultiva- tion and the crop in that; section has made up some of it's initial lateness. In the east the rains which followed on the heels of the last report brought the crop up to good stand, and al though the crop is uneven, by reason of the different ages of the plants, it is making good progress.
 Stands are good Ihe plant aver ages small, but is strong and vigorous and with favorable weather should grow rapidly. The principal desidera- tum is warm open weather, to allow cultivation to be pushed Bool weevil are reported in rather large numbers l in infested areas of the central belt.

Dandruff Surely
 Destroys The Hair

Gir1s--if you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't
 It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it. then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when re- tiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dis solve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it.
 You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails.

The Joys Of Christmas

AS old as the rece itself, as
sweet as the milk Of human
kindness, as enduring as the
eternal hills, as perenially fresh
and joyous as youth its If, it is
indeed the age-old miracle of
Christmas. No other holiday,
Holy day, or festival effects us
so powerfully or has an appeal
so universal.
The spirit of Christmas takes
hold of all of US save that pitiful
few whose shell of Selfishness
has grown imperyious to any
softening influence. Rich and
poor, old and young, wise and
witless, frolicsome and sedate,
we let into our hearte in greater
or less degree the Spirit of
Christmas, come into closer touch
with childhood, with love for
others, and yield to the joy of
gift giving.
1t is this JOY of giving. this
happiness that comes from the
consciousness of having added to
the happiness of others, call it
BENEVOLENT altrhism or active
Christianity as you like, which |
constitutes the true spirit of
Christmas. Through the strange
book keeping of God, he who
gives to others shall be found
when the accounts are balanced
TO have received infinitely more
than that which he has given.
In the degree that we sacrifice
for others do we receive
the greatest joys of
Christmas.

poor devil he is riding and chok
ing; justice would make him get
off hisvictim' back. Conventional
charity piously accepts things as
they are, and helps the unfortu-
nate Justice goes to the legislature
and changes things. Charity
swats the fly; justice takes away
the dung heaps that breed flies.
Charity gives Quinne in the
malarial tropics: justice drains
the sWamps. Charity sends
surgeons and ambulances and
trained nurses TO the war: justice
struggles TO secure that inter
nationalism that viii prevent war.
Charity works among slum
wrecks; justice dreams and plans
that there be no more slums.
Charity is affected by symptoms;
justice by causes. Charity assumes
evil institutions and customs to
be a part of Divine Providence, "
and tearfully works away at
taking care of the wreckage;
justice regards injustice every
where, custom buttressed and
respectable or not, as the work
of the devil, and vigorously
attacks it. Charity is timid and
always is passing the collection
box; justice is unafraid and asks
no aims, no patrons, no beneyo-
lent support. The best part Of |
the human race does not want
help, nor favor, nor charity; it
wants a fair chance and a square
deal. Charity is mans kindness;
justice is Gods. DR.. Frank
Crane, New York Globe

The New Progressiveness

If | want to redeem the world
/ can come nearer my object and
do less harm, by being just to-
ward myself and just toward
everybody el'e, than by doing
good" to people. The only un-
tainted charity is. justice. Often
our ostensible charities serve but
to obscure and palliate great evils.
Conventional charity drops pen
MES in the beggar's cup, carries
bread to the starving, distributes
clothing to the naked. Real
charity, which is justice, sets
about removing the conditions
that make beggary starvation
and nakedness. Conventional
charity plays Lady Bountiful;
Justice tries to establish such
laws as shall give employment to
all, so that they need no bounty.
Charity makes the Old Man of
the Sea- feed sugar plums to the
