Billions of SAVINGS.

Discouraging statistics and a good
deal of talk are offered about the Inn
mense number of people who reach
old age without provision. for meeting
Its needs. Evidences are not lacking
that the statement in this direction is
overdrawn, since a lack of material
possessions does not always prove a
state of dependence upon public char
ity. Many old persons have invested
their means in earlier years in sons
and daughters that prove an invest
ment capable of paying and that do
pay large dividends In love and care.
Old age without houses and land and
stocks and bonds is not always i'm
provident old age. Signs there are of
a degree of improvidence in the young
er generation that would seem to bode
destitute old age; and yet who could
be downcast about the situation in the
face of the fact that the savings banks
of this country have on deposit more
than four billions of dollars-proof of
thrift-which means hard work and
careful savings through self-denial-
that discounts to a degree the evil
dence that this is an extravagant and
a thoughtless age.-New Bedford
Standard.

so A GUNBoAT WENT MAD
How the Spaniards Took Vengeance
on Mcros Who Slew Swimming
Soldiers.

Capt. John E. Morris, who spent a
long. long time in the Philippines
chasing the Moro, tells story about
q Spanish military governor in Jolo
who. in the peace of fanciey security,
allowed a whole flock of his soldiers
to go swimming one day.
Now, the Moro has a habit of going
juramatado when the camp meeting
variety of religion hits him. When a
Moro goes juramatado. he takes the
most disagreeable weapon he can find
and carves up the first Christian he
meets
When the Moros saw the soldiers in
the water several of them thought it
was the very best time to go juara-
matado with the result that those
soldiers never went swimming any
more.
The sultan who had charge OF that
particular bunch of Moros promptly
was sent for The Spaniard wanted to
know why his men were slaughtered
in such manner.
How could / help itT' the sultan
asked. They went juramatado."
Nobody wants to interfere with any
body's religion, Of course, but there
was Spanish gunboat lying around
loose in that immediate vicinity. The
governor sent for the commander of
the gunboat
You haven't had much target prac-
tic lately" he remarked to the naval
officer. "and you might try a little.
Now, few Moros make fair targets.
When l want target practice to stop
I'll run up flag. But until the flag is
run up keep at it,"
1t was one glorious bombardment.
A lot of Moros accidentally got hit.
And somehow the post flag was mis-
laid, so 1t couldn't be hoisted.
1t was a most excited sultan who
showed up before the Spanish govern
or. II that gunboat didn't stop it's
nonsense he wouldn't be a sultan any
longer, because he wouldn't have any
subjects to sultan over. And he told
the governor so.
How can help it?" demanded the
governor with some heat. THE fool

If IT'S NEWS
PUBLISH IT
No Good Reasons Why Scandalous
Or Startling information Should
Be Withheld
SAYS THIS EDITOR
Duty To Readers For Publishers To
Print ALI The News 0milting
Delicate Features.

Whether it is good policy or not TO
suppress scandalous or startling
news was one of the subjects discuss
Press Association recently held at
Galveston B. f. Harigel, publisher
of the La Grange Journal, speaking
on the subject. declared that in his
opinion everything that was real
news, whether it reflected on the
character of any citizen or not. should
be published in country paper.
Among other. things, he said:
I'm nearly every instance the coun-
try editor knows almost every man,
woman and child in his little town.
Let it be understood, when l say
country editor, | refer to those in
towns of 5000 population and under.
When populations exceeds 5000 we
find little dailies ekeing out an ex-
itsence and the inhabitants inclined
TO refer to their hamlet as a city, and
as such populations increase it is ap-
parent that the acquaintance is not
so very extensive. | make the pre-
fatory remarks merely as an expla-
nation.
1T is really a hard matter for
which to offer correct solution.
Yet, If we take our duty as outlined
to us as newspaper editors, we are
forced TO accept the conclusion that
deplorable news must be published,
much as we dislike to encourage the
idea that such items will bring a pang
of sorrow to the family. If we with
held such items as suicide or homi-
eide, or such items as affect the do
nestle relations of local family, or
find ourselves confronted with the
startling news that one of our young
ladies had been joined in marriage
with a recent acquaintance, who later
is proved to be a bigamist, We are
very generously extending a courtesy
to our local acquaintance. but deny
ing thousand or more readers over
the country the news they are paying
for to read.
Experience has taught me that it
is loss either way Upon one occa-
sion / omitted from my columns the
news of the arrest of a man guilty
of bigamy, and such omission cost me
several subscribers-good men, who
claimed they were entitled to know
the facts. which they learned later
when the case was tried Upon
another occasion a good man in our
little community attempted to end his
earthly career by taking poison.
Discovered in time by his family, the
physician succeeded in saving his
life. In mentioning the matter, and
clothing the mention in the choicest
and kindest words at my command,
] lost his subscription and received
TRADE of abuse besides. After this,
l made up my mind to throw discre-
ton to the winds and, so long as it
as matter of news, which l believed
the reader was entitled to, l would
publish it, not merely to show my
duty or authority, but to give it as
news. emitting all delicate features"

Nearer the Perfect Man.

Man is handsomer, better housed,
fed and clothed, more charitable and
is more rarely assailed with govt
than in we olden times,a according
to DR.. John W. Wainwright. In fact,
man has had an, average of six years
added to his life in the last century.
mo doubt the stress and strain OF
life today are conducive to nervous
complaints" says DR.. Wainwright, "as
well as to arterial, cardiac and CASTRO
intestinal disturbances. And yet with
all of this hurry one is amazed at the
outward calm. the poise, of the man
of affairs today.

out at sixty. but statistics prove that
the average length of life is between
six and seven years longer than a cen
fury ago."-The American Practi-

ture called 1.-THE Long Trail will be
the splendid attraction at the Colonial
Theater tomorrow evening.

placed in the romantic setting of the
snow covered big woods. 1t has punch
and thrills, together with unique and
powerful love story. Some OF the most
beautiful outdoor scenes ever taken
are shown in this production. The
Long Trail is the greatest romance
in which Lou Tellegen has ever APP

The cast supporting these two popu-
lar stars is an excellent one, including

senator Myers aBlggItyy Words.

After all, what is it these obstinate
women want who have been arrested
for picketing the White House? The
same right of suffrage enjoyed by
male citizens of twenty-one who have
complied with the election laws Is
it surprising, in these strenuous war
times, when the country is asking so
much of our women, that they should
expect to receive a consideration that
is their due?
The picket is a mere incident, a
fieabite so far as the cause itself is
concerned. Adopt the Susan B. An
thony amendment to the Constitution
and the sole incentive for maintaining
a picket-which is for remembrance
--vanishes.
Senator Myers uses big words in
characterizing the irritating conduct
of the silent sentinels. Infamous"
Outrageous" 'scandalous,' insult
ing" disgusting" Unreasonable, 4"
are among the adjective he employs
in referring to the action of the suf-
fragists. OF course. he goes too far,
and only succeeds in making himself
ridiculous. An insult to the -Ameri-
can people as we'll as to the Presi-
dent" the Montana Senator deems
their eintolerable conduct"
But what about the United States
Senate, of which Mr.. Myers is a men,
Der? The suffrage resolution. as SEN
ator Cummins has shown, was pig
eonholed in committee for several
months. although nearly every mem
Der was in favor of its passage. Why
tor Jones, of New Mexico. chairman
of the committee. was peeved at the
picket and in order to rebuke a scanty
score of oyerzealous women was
ready to work injustice to twenty
millions of their sisters.
Senator Myers uses "biggity'' Ian
guage to express his indignation for
the pickets, but his outburst on the
floor of the Senate, in demanding a
law for the better protection and en-
forcement OF peace and order" in the
District of Columbia. told nothing of
the pettiness of his feiIow-member
from New Mexico. Why does Senator
Myers get so excited over the tact
less act of a few mistaken women
while keeping as mum as Tidewater
oyster about the far greater crime
perpetrated by his colleague? The
picketing can be stopped if the Sen
ate does its whole duty. Let Mr.
Myers help to bring that about,
Meanwhile, according to the Presi-
dent. the pickets are violating nc
