It is a question if women doing mems work deserve particular sympa- thy, for it is doubtful if there Is any work that is harder than everyday housework.

TREASURER'S REPORT

For Freedom School District No. 70, County
If Ward, State Of North Dakota. for the
year 1916 1917:
Grand Forks herald., 1917-02-08
LEGALITY AND EXPEDIENCY.

It seems to have been difficult for
many who have written and spoken
on the attempted revision of the con-
stitution through the operation of
House Bill AZ to keep clearly in mind
the distinction between legality and
expediency.
That bill should have been defeat
ed because 1t represented an attempt
to perform a highly important act in
an unlawful way. So far as this phase
of the subject is concerned the wisdom
of the several provisions which it was
proposed to incorporate in the new
constitution has no bearing whatever.
The constitution is there. 1t is the law
of the state. 1t permits certain things
and prohibits others. Ii any attention
whatever is to he paid to its spirit it
prohibits the amendment of the con-
stitution in the manner proposed. And
because the constitution does prohibit
that course. that course cannot be fol-
lowed. The character Of the changes
which are proposed is a separate mat
ter.
One of the purposes for which one
Of the amendments was proposed is
that the state and its subdivisions may
be permitted to engage in any desired
line Of business. House Bill "A says
that such activities are prohibited by
the present constitution. But, If the
legislature may ignore the constitution
in revising the constitution itself, why
may it not equally ignore the con-
stitution and forthwith establish state
packing plants, and flour mills and
barber shops? Why 20 to the trouble
of amending the constitution at all .
Why not take the short cut at once
and declare the whole constitution.
and not merely that part of it which
applies to revision, dead letter.
If the constitution as proposed in
House Bill A had contained all the
wisdom Of all the ages it could not
have been made effective in the man
ner attempted. The method was un-
lawful, and when we make law we
must also abide by law. This is en-
tirely apart from the merit of the pro-
posed changes. Those changes are, IN
most cases. distinctly contrary to the
interests of the state The bill there
fore, Is doubly to be condemned. first
because it is unlawful, second, be-
cause it is inexpedient.

Wore q Hat Size Six

You renem Der the woman who said
to the clerk. Il want to buy hat for
my husband, but I don't know the
size?'
When the clerk said, "IIe wears a
size 6, madam" and the woman said,
How do you know?" you remember
the clerk replied:
Well, madam, any man who would
let his wife choose his hat for him
can't wear more than a size six"
I wonder II you realize how fas-
tidious men have been getting about
their shopping these past few years.
good looking man can stand in
front Of a mirror Just about as long
as good looking woman. And with
the wide Introduction of safety razors
most men are fairly good looking.
That is, they are fairly clean COM
pared to what they used to be. And
cleanliness helps a lot.
Ask any clerk in a store and he
will tell you that mon are getting
troublesome. which means that they
are beginning to do their own shop
ping and to think lot about the
things they buy.
They are beginning to notice, too,
more and more, what other men are
wearing-what the styles are, what
is the proper thing to wear.

~fUROPFS MAD
DOG" DOOMED,
SAYS 0'C0NNOR
Will be Finished by Ameri-
ca, Writes Famous
Irishman.
In a Parable, He Describes
Ultimate Effect of Will
sons Action.

London, Feb. st. P. o'Connor,
writing in The Chronicle today on the
present war situation. says:
A mad dog rushes into the streets
early in the morning when few people
are about. Most Of the citizens are
still in bed. For horrible moments
it has full and unchecked run; it bites
here. there, everywhere. 1t catches
the early postman and chambermaid
and jumps at the baby in the arms
until the whole town is at last aroused
and. pellmell. everybody rushes after
the mad dog until at last it's brains
are dashed out by truncheon or rifle
and the unclean and wicked thing lies
foam still oozing from its dead and
impotent lips.
This is a parable. It sums up and
symbolizes to my imagination the
story OF Germany in this war For
years, as Lloyd George puts 1t in one
Of his great passages. she plotted to
murder Europe in her sleep. Mean
time she prepared herself for the
devils work by poisoning her mind
tho devils gospel that might alone
constituted right; that war was not
merely the means but the end; that
the human conscience, free will, and
the existence of nations should lie at
the mercy Of the biggest battalions
and the best machine guns, and when
the appropriate time was supposed
to have come she burst on sleeping
and unarmed Europe, foaming at the
mouth with the fury Of madness.
lat first the mad dog was able to
bite and to infect everybody and ev-
erywhere until at last the whole
world, or almost the whole world.
is In full pursuit of the noxious beast
and its end is near ct hand.
Effect of Americas Action.
America has come in to give the
coup de grace. for it Is quite certain
Americas intervention is the coup de
grace. I do not say this because of
the active military and naval contri-
button which America may add to the
forces Of allies How much or indeed
whether she will contribute that ele-
ment may be left in doubt for some
days yet, but who can measure the
moral influence which the hostility of
America will exercise on the fortunes
Of the struggle. To the allies it brings
a new ground for the certainty they
have never lost, Of having the super
iority OF force and of morale which
must bring them the final and crush
