his popularity was such that he had
the endorsement Of all political parties
and was spared the expense of making
a campaign for city councilman mas
much as the people made it for him.
Mr.. Moeller has an education which
will come to his aid in the discharge
of the duties as clerk of the court, He
is man of good address and has, a
host of friends who will support him
at the election. His acquaintences
through the county are Of a character
which will greatly aid him in his can
didacy. He stands well with all classes
of people and all nationalities, and is
especially popular with the German
population of the county. What the
people desire n candidate for this
Office is one whose qualifications will
insure able, agreeable. and efficient
service and Mr.. Moeller embraces all
of these qualities in eminent degree
and when elected to the Office will
prove himself capable, efficient and
trustwcrthy The Office of clerk Of the
courts is an important one and growing
more important all the time as the
wealth of the county and the business
of the courts increase. We submit that
Mr.. Moeller is we'll fitted for the office
and he will receive a large vote at the
coming election.

THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.

We have promised to publish some.
thing concerning the Candidates on the
republican ticket for county offices
and the matter would probably have

fact that the writer has been away

able to give the attention required to
carrying out his purpose.
The republican ticket this year from
president down to the lowest office
iaSmade up. Of splendid material. with
Charles Il Hughes as our candidate
fMspresident and Harding for governor

The republican party was called into

failed to rise to the occasion regardless
OF the difficult problems presented to
it for solution. No loyal republican

AGAINST THE PosrMAsTERsHIP

The post office contest in Denison

barrassment in the county. We pub

in order to maintain his leadership as
dictator Of the, party. tFst, i u
n This Is a democratic row and one
intwlich the republicans can afford to-
stand OFF and behold with great com.
placency, inasmuch as it may have a
tendency to result in public good. We
are of the opinion that Mr.. Caswell
has made d mistake in taking upon
himself the contract for running the
democratic party in this county and
ignoring the wishes of the rank and
file of the party. The grief that awaits
him suggests that there is some truth

head that wears a crown"

the county are entirely in the hands
of the county attorney and carries
with it large responsibility. Mr.. Kah
Ter pledges himself that if elected tC

Ito a faithful discharge of the duties
of the office. We believe with his abil
lity and experience that he will prove
himself we'll equipped for the work
which he will be called upon to per
form and will prove credit to him
self and his constituents.
ALFRED WRIGHT.
The candidate for auditor is Alfred
/ Wright, who has filled the position as
lpost master at Denison for full term
lofs four years and is now serving over
itime for the reason that the gdemccra-
tic. leadership of the county is afraid
Ito announce his successor before cleo.
ltion for fear OF the results coming from
lsuch action. Alfred Wright is too well
known in Denison to need any introduc-
}tion to the voters of this locality. He
| has proven himself capable and eff.

called upon to fill in the past. For sew.

ment as post master. was connected
with the. Nicholson Produce Co. of this
city. He is man of superior education
having graduated from Iowa College at
Grinnell, one OF the leading colleges
of the state. He has a large number of
personal friends among the younger
class of voters in the county who will
rally to his support at the coming cleo
ton. His fitness for the Office is such
that every republican can rest assured
that the duties of the Office will be dis.
charged with absolute fidelity and care.
His line of work since manhood has
been along the line that will aid him
| in the discharge of the Office Of audi.
| tor of Crawford county. There is no
teXcuse for any republican in the county
who takes pride in the republican par.

officers to fail to accord to Mr.. Wright
the most enthusiastic and loyal sup.

will find his friends coming to his loyal

can be assured that his friends will

Frocks for Girls

Frocks for quite young people have
no waists, loose belt descends many
inches below the normal walstline |;
such frocks are made in tweed, cloth
and various soft wooden fabrics, and
often have horizontal band In white
down the front, with buttons for fast
ening, and the belt is white also. Some
have sailor collars of the same white
fabric, ending In front In q large black
satin bow without ends. Some of the
little frocks of plain material, made on
the same lines, show a little striped
petticoat below. Girls of that delight
full age from twelve to seventeen wear
mostly plain skirts, bodices with mar
row, all-round basque, rather full
white revers, a late frill falling over
a founce of chiffon; the sleeves are all
after the coat form and close fitting,
sometimes with buttons outside the
arm, sometimes set In a band, and O
fayorite fashion for making such
dresses Is with piece forming front
breadth from neck to hem, buttoning
on either side, eight inches at the hem,
tapering as little as necessary to the
neck.

ment that enters into the character"
that can be trained or cultivated. The
comparison between young children
and adults shows us that another diff
ference In their characters lies In the
comparative instability of the child's
likes or dlsllkes, and of his standards
of right and wrong. Beginning with
nearly direct imitation of what he
sees his parents do, he comes In few
years to imagine himself doing things
that he hears of others doing. When
he begins to read about the exploits
of great heroes he projects himself
into the characters of history or
legend, and for the time being he
lives In the character that is upper
most In his interest. In this way he
absorbs from his immediate surround
ings and from his reading and asso-
ciates the ideals and principles that
win give stability and color to his con-
duet-that Is, his character.

he had a half-dozen other wounds. His
dog came with him, hunting dog Of
some kind. This dog had saved his
masters life. They were in the
trenches together when shell burst
In such a way as to collapse the whole
trench. Every man In 1t was Killed
or buried In the collapse, and this dog
dug until he got his masters face free
so that he could breathe, and then he
sat by him until some re-enforcements
came and dug them all out Every
one was dead but this man. Isn't that
a beautiful little story? We have both
dog and man with us. The dog has a
little house all to himself In the court

HERE Is no doubt that some chill
dren are much ''bsighter" than
others. And, of course, the
brighter children are easier to
teach than are the others. But many
a bright child absorbs the teachings
offered him and develops a character
that Is very far from satisfactory
while among the less gifted" children
are evolved useful and loYable spirits
that amply compensate for the rela-
lively feeble intellects. This is all
common knowledge; yet we continue
to be puzzled about IL without making
any effort TO clear up our understand
Ing. or we continue TO think and to
act as thought the development of the
Intellect were Of itself sufficient to In
sure suitable training of the character.
The fact Is that while knowledge
may be converted Into power 1t Is in
itself very far from being a substitute
for wisdom. And still more remote Is
IL from character. We know that chill
dren can learn knowledge; the impor-
tant question for us is. can they ae-
Quire character7
When we compare IN infant with an
older child and with an adult we may
see that the lack of character" on the
part OF the Infant means that the child
has not yet developed fixed habits In
regard 10 certain things. whereas the
older person has. You do not know
just what the child win do under given
circumstances. while you do know
what the grown-up win DO. II Is the
mass Of habits that make up the foun-
dalton OF the character which the child
acquires.
Habits OF courteous speech, for ex-
ample. may be mere limitations OF other
peoples speech, and very different
from what the child would use II neg
lected In this regard. Yet as It be-
comes n habit II constitutes dlstinc-
tive part OF the persons character, II
Is through the little tricks of Difference
and pollteness that child learns re-
spect, and IL Is from this that he de
yelops an appreciation for the quail

Pockets a Feature

Separate sport skirts are now quite
as likely to be of silk jersey, khaki
kool or la jerz, as of linen, even If the
knitted silk. wool jersey or the velvet
coat Is worn. They are very lovely
In white, and have the advantage OF
being washable and needing no stiffen-
ing. While there are some skirts laid
In long, narrow pressed plaits, most of
the sports skirts are cut fiaring and In
few cores. Their novel feature lies In
the pockets, on which much personal
ingenuity Is displayed. Pockets,
whether slashed or patch, are cut In
odd shapes. The crescent tops are one
of the favorite outlines. The upper
edge will often have tiny plating of
a contrasting material. The belt, which
Is of the same material generally, may
have this same plating along the edge
and buttons with as many as three
buttons. Sometimes pockets are
found in the belt. They are little
slashes which are often faced, as are
the up-to-date buttonholes, and are
only large enough to hold a whistle,
watch or key.

What happens when the accepted

by this from Tom Days column In

the opener of the exercises at the con-
vention of the National Association Of
Credit Men in Pittsburgh the words
of America were sung to the new
music arranged for them. When the
applause had dwindled away, the presi-
dent arose and said: I feel that our

BOYS Become Scarce.

For the first time in more than ID
years the Children's Aid society OF
New York Is unable to furnish enough
boys to families who want either to
adopt them or care for them until the
boys become of age. The reason for
this Is the campaign for military pro-
paredness and the great demand for
workers In war munition factories.
Almost every day letters come to
the society headquarters asking for
boys who have been trained at its farm
school.
Last month Al of the society's boys
sixteen to twenty-one years old, en-
listed in the army and navy service
for boys. The munition factories take
a large number of the older boys.
