One Great. unhted Peonle.

The South does not celebrate the
same Memorial day with the North;
It has Its own days for paying tribute
TO Its soldier dead. Yet the South has
no reason After the lapse of nifty years
TO regret the triumph OF that cause for
which 20 many Union soldiers per-
ished. South and North, we are one
people; our interests are mutual and
common, and could only thrive 50 hong
Ms we remained one nation. That Abra.
hon Lineoln's vision was true the peo-
pie Of tho South ass today willing to
concede.

Meaning Of "veIdt."

Veldt is changed form of the
Dutch weld" the same as our Eng
fish word field. 1t means simply open
ground, or prairie. Westervelt means

Soon must pass away forever
From the scene Of their endeavor.
Soon must answer to the roll call Of the

An American Habit

The habit of investigating anything
and everything is becoming more marked
every day in American life. When any
problem arises that legislators find trou-
blesome or beyond their capacity or solu-
ton, they dismiss it by authorizing a
commission to inquire into the matter.
This provides work for the members OF
the commission and for lot of clerks,
stenographers, counsel and special oper-
ators. Generally the inquiry reveals facts
which are already known. The various
remedies to correct the evils are recon-
mended. The report is presented, is duly
received and filed, stuck way in pigeon
hole and that ends it.
However, commissions serve a good
purpose. They promote, at the public
expense, the propaganda to "See America
First" and they broaden the knowledge
of our lawmakers concerning the scenery
and resources Of the great United States.
Moreover, commissions stimulate a love
of travel and in this way, as well as in
many other WAYS, they are desirable.

The administration consolidation agri-
cultural bill, II. 80, was favorably report

REASON AND LAW.


Law in the last analysis is
reason applied to the conditions
of life. Unless it be that it does
not deserve to be called law,
A legal decision which cannot
be submitted to scrutiny and dis
cussion does not deserve respect.
All that is arbitrary that is
not based on reason, on expedi-
ency and service to the people,
for whom the law acts, should be
put aside.-R. F. Lozier.
