The more people look up the pro-
posed amendments the more convinced
they are that they will turn them
down. The people of the state are
commencing to awaken to the, fact
that the socialists are trying to. slip
something over on them and they are
right. If Judge Robinson, who Isl a
dyed-in-the-wool nonpartisan, says
that seven out of the ten are bad and
advises voting against them, it is a
cinch they are and in addition to that
the other three are no better. The
safer thing to do is to vote against
all of them and leave the present con-
stitution alone. It is bretty good
old constitution at that, and if it needs
amending it can be done in the regular
way as provided-which is a great
deal safer than the one we are now
asked to support in a lot of wild cat
amendments. Let's be sane about
this and not 60 chasing after false
gods.

TRAINING REGULAR ARMY.

We read much these days of the
dOings of National Guardsmen and
National army cOnscripts in their can
tonments, but nothing ever appears
about the training of the regular army,
which is now no small affair. On April
1 it contained 10000 officers and men.
Now they number nearly $4,000.
Where are they all? The natural pre-
sumption is that most of them are in
France, where they are being prepared
for trench work, says Milwaukee Wis
consin. Recent events have also
brought out the fact that number Of
National Guardsmen, possibly two di-
visions, have crossed the ocean. More
may be expected to follow soon. WASH
ington refuses to let it be known how
many soldiers Uncle Sam has in
France, but it is a fair guess that the
number is much larger than is general
ly supposed.

It's not so much preachment that
we need as wholesome example. Man
kind is looking for the fellows who
get JOY out of life, not the fellows that
take it out. 1t longs for real happi-
ness that won't need to apologize for
bubbling over when there is something
to laugh at. 1t Graves the man of
strength and culture that can enter
into the frolics of childhood and show
by enjoyment that he was not just
playing part. 1t longs for the touch
of honest sympathy that comforts
without plying. Such characters
change life's perspective and get young
people to see that there is JOY in life
without going to the devil to get it.
And If there is anyone who should be
happy it is he who has lived we'll.

TO HARRY LAUDER, WHOSE ONLY
SON WAS KILLED IN FRANCE

He stood behind the footlights and he
set the crowd a-laughing
With the same old grooming chuckle
that we loved in other years.
And only those who knew could guess
the grief behind the daffing-
But those who knew, the laughter
had secret salt of tears.
Then at the last he came out in his
s"@. grass-green coat and bonnet,
With his gaudy tartans colored like a
garden in the sun,
The same quaint little figure-but a
different face was on it g..
When he sang of the laddies that
fought and won.
A face hard lined with burrows where
the plow of pain had driven.
Blue eyes that had grown shadow-set
through many a sleepless night.
The face of one who more than life
ungrudgingly had given, +,
Who called on us to do as well-and,
~1~. ah, we owned his right!
We saw him in the Fiery Cross of
= Scotland, charred and CORY,
And the spirits burned within us to
r' the challenge that he gave,
For the player was a prophet as he
spoke his peoples glory
Were wee land, and a puir land,
but, byGod, we're brave!"

SCIENCE AIDS MINING.

Dead mines have been walked to
life by modern ore treatment meth
ods, improved milling devices and
efficient mining machinery. There is
nothing more illustrative of the great
strides science has made in the min
ing industry than when some old
camp, once the scene Of busy pros
pecting but later abandoned to the
lizard and the rattlesnake, is touched
by the magic wand of science and
awakens to vigorous activity. Old
properties whose workings are filled
with water are easily dewatered by
powerful modern pumps; wonderful
mining machinery and equipment are
Installed, and the mines soon put in
condition for operating. Ore that
the former owners regarded as utter
ly Improbable is lifted to the surface
and then handled by scientific meth.
ods in way that extracts paying
values and may be said to transmute,
base products into gold. The sup
ply Of available metal in western
mineral areas is thus appreciably
augmented.
During the past year and more the
gratifying news has come from prac-
tically every western state Of the re-
Mobilization of deserted camps and
their successful operation. Even the,
dumps Of abandoned properties, once
considered merely an excresence on
the landscape and of no value for any
purpose, are made to yield gold or
it's equivalent. Science has done all
this and still is busy experimenting,
still trying to reach the goal of one
hundred per cent perfection.
While it is true that many mines
have been worked out and new ones
are urgently to be desired, the re-
opening of such large number of
old properties as have been put into
commission; has accomplished much
in keeping metal production up to a
high tonnage. But science naturally
has it's limitations; it can do so much
and no more. When mine has been

Once the war is ended, there can

new claims. All conditions justify
