CONVENTION DATE
is DRAWING NEAR
Movement For Postponement
Said to be Gaining Favor

Intrest in the approachign
constitutional convention is on
ly passive. The convention will
convene at the state capitol on
November 10Th. The proposal
that the convention meet, or
ganize and adjourn, until such
time as the condition of the
country becomes more settled,
is gaining favor. Those who
favor this plan argue that the
time is inopportune for writing
or adopting a new constitution
owing to the turmoil of war
Just what the delegates will
decide upon converting, is of
course, problematical. But if
proposed new constitution is
written, the voters of the state
will have the deciding vote, and
it is assured that they will care
fully scrutinize the new docu-
ment before voting for it.

During the six months that
have elspased since this country
entered the lists against the
central powers Of Europe scar
cely a public official has es-
capped this criticism. In many
instances the effect has been
little short of disastrous to the
plans of the government.
Not because of any direct
effect upon the officials them
selves, but from the simple fact
that no man nor set of men are
proof against opposition. Even
the most fragrant, unjust criti-
cism of the most worthy of
fetal will to a great extent des-
troy his influence, undermine
his labors and and render abor-
tive his best efforts.
If this country wishes an OBJ

fects of divided councils she
has but to look at Russia. That
the Russian people were justi-
fled in deposing the autocracy
none will deny. But when the
Car relinquished the reins of
government it was to a divided
people with no unity of thought
or unanimity of aims. All on

b CHEERFULNESS AND "
n ITS WORK Y
y . . 2 y y y . . y Y

The manner in which the
people meet their obligations
in everyday life has much to
do with the ideals and achl-
evements of the nation. In
rest, Encouragement and dis
satisfaction have a tendency to
demoralize free country.
The evil desires of one man
may influence many till final
ly such thoughts may endanger
the life of a nation.
Cheerful service has pow
erful influence upon commun-
it life and national prosperity.
The individual that finds pleas
ure in the work he does, not
only takes interest in his task
but enables others to become
enthusiastic and hopeful.
To the cheerful farmer, the
fields, crops, livestock and farm
environments are companions
that share in the beauty and
the sublimity of farm life. He
who feels that he is serving
the state and the nation as
we'll as his own family finds
opportunity in farm work and
satisfaction in having helped
nature produce that which sus-
tains life and makes the ma
ton rich and powerful.
There are communities of
hopeful, industrious, optimis-
tic people because a few in
terpreted life properly and
learned the value of cheerful
service Their influence has per-
meated the neighborhood un-
til consciously or unconsciously
cheerfulness has followed and
unself;sh service is paramount.
And such communities are
slowly but surely casting a
light of progress as city set
on a hill. Such people are
building more wisely than they
realize. They are factors in
the ideals of a great nation
with influence in the worlds
progress.
