PAVING AND The
RECENT ELECTION

A thing is never settled until It Is
settled right. The matter OF paving
the public square has only been de-
ierred II remains unsettled On ac-
count OF the uncertain conditions OF
business, occasioned by the war, the
matter Of paving the public square
has not been pushed or given the i'm
petus It otherwise would have re-
ceived.
The present time is a time OF bus
mess caution.
But the expressed will Of the SOW
ereIgn voters OF Snyder will not be
deferred.
The sense Of the the people Of sny-
der is that the majority should rule
This is Democratic.
And the militant and and progress
sive spirit OF democracy as reflected
at the polls recently will prevail And
no amount Of petty politics to the
contrary, will ultimately thwart the
expressed will Of the people OF sny-
der.

himself before the draft law became a

age span of life Of the soldier in the
trenches, of the officer. and went about
telling everyone else. lie bcwailcd the
fact that his sister had passed til" age
of dependency. He asked what might
be the penalty if his mother should
declare to u government inquirer that
there was no young man OF eligible
age in the household.
He registered, of course. lie dared
do nothing else. And then he waited
in Il state of clammy uncasincSs for
his draft number. 1t was. near the
end of the ten millions.
Instantly. he became another being

to the front. He had done his duty
There was no chance now, of course
of being called, but he was ready II
the cali came. His one generation OF
diluted Amcricanism became flamboy-
ant, and he lapscd saily into the Ibid
inousness of his former life.
lie was not in the least ashamed OF
the figure he had cut.
And then + met a MAN!
He was only twenty-five. but he had
not waited for the draft to offer him
self for examination. win his commits
sion AS a lieutenant and go into train
Ing for the especially dangerous duties
of the branch of the service he had
selected. Agile and bronzcd. ne looked
every inch the young soldier. a
capable assurance marked his actions.
his clear eyes cleaned with the sense
of right cndcavor. He was as differ
ent from the Stacker as the breath OF
the sea at dawn is different from the
rcck OF a sewer.
He spoke of death quite calmly rs
something that might come to him
and he smiled as nc spoke. There
were moments when he was serious
with "a seriousness beyond his years
but his lips were silent as to what
may have been in his mind at these
times. And l thought him as fine q
flower of the American blood that rar
in his veins as one might wish to see
Thank God there are tens of thou
sands OF him to any ten of the other!
