Cup Aaain!"

When we were little shavers, tod
ding about the house and went down
on the floor or the ground because our
feet could not keep up with our am
bition to run and get there" right off !;
grandmother, a lovely old down East
lady, would sing out to us up again
Never mind! That didn't hurt you !!
Up again. So up again we would
Jump, all the hurt gone, Just because
grandmother cheered us TO try 1T over
again, writes Vincent in Farm Life.
Sam Jones has had the luck of bad,
crops two or three years. Things have
seemed against him. But he has beenl
as brave as lion. No frost can ever
come that froze the smile from his
face or withered the hope in his heart!
And he is right at it this year, just
as if he had had the best of luck all
through the years.
But I wonder who of his neighbors
has been down to sing out to Sam:
Cup again, old man! This is all right !!
You'll come out all right-can't help
it,"
I don't know of anybody that has
had time to look up from his own hoe
ing and blowing and digging long
enough to do that; it's shame, too!
Come on! Let's go down right now
and cheer Sam up a bit Maybe we
can give him lift at the work, too.
All the world will he the brighter for
it after that-to Sam and to you and
to me, writes Vincent in Farm Life.

somebody. The whole department evil
IDENTIFY needs housekeeping. In fact
the house should have been set in order
more than two years ago and even since
then a little occasional swapping out
would have made things look better to
the public eye. AS far as Mr.. Baker him.
self. is concerned not enough has been
vet shown to determine to what extent
the blame for present conditions can just
ly be attributed to him. To him, per-
sonaIly, it is due that he have fair hear
ing and an unprejudiced verdict as soon
as possible. We hope it will be shown
that he has done all that man could do IN
face of the difficulties which he has
doubtless encountered. We think, how
ever, that the feeling is becoming quite
general that Mr.. Baker has failed as an
executive officer. Failed because he has
not broken loose from the meshes Of mill
tary red tape. Failed because he has not
said 'to the rear with your old military
traditions. Failed because he has not
fought for results and against methods as
soldier should fight. In this we may
be entirely in the wrong, but if we are
right the time has come when Mr.. Baker
should give place to better soldier or
his ability and fitness for the place he
occupies should promptly be made known.
Whether Mr.. Baker stands or falls his de-
partment must be freed from the tram
mels of red tape and old fashioned cir
cumlocution, and thoroughly reorganized.
The country is in danger and prepared
ness must henceforth be more than the
sounding of brass and the tinkling of
cymbals. The investigation of meat
packers continues to show them in an
unfavorable light. When their case has
been thoroughly and accurately diagnosed
the report should not be tucked away in
pigeonhole, but Congress should enact
well framed law which will compel these
and all other profiteers to confine their
operations within the limits of common
business decency. Mr.. Reed of the COM
mittee which is investigating the food
administrator is evidently hostile to Mr..
Hoover and is not inclined to favor that
gentlemen or even to give him hearing.
This has reacted in favor of Mr.. Hoover,
who, by the way, seems amply able to
take care of himself. AS everybody
knows Mr.. Hoover has made some mis-
takes. All men of action and energy
have done that and we have noticed that
they who have never made any mistakes
have been of but little use and have never
been heard of very far from their local
habitation. We do not look for any
scandalous developments concerning Mr..
Hoover, nor of Mr.. Hurley of the ship
construction board who is also being in
vestigated.

men of the Union advanced posts saw
approaching them from the desert
three living skeletons, who staggered
like drunken men as they groped

less a mile or so behind, TOO far gone

without food and, for the most part
without water, they had Travelled
some hundreds of miles-from one
end of the vast territory to the
other. Almost naked, the lce-cold
winds of night had crippled them, nun

strength and thirst had all but driven
them to madness. They had escaped

THE INVESTIGATIONS.

Congress is conducting its investiga-
ii ons of the various departm ents with in
dustry and vigor, and wes are beginning
to learn from the reports of the daily
sessions, what should have been learned
and corrected several months ago. The
storm center RACES around the disclosures
made concerning the absolute inefficiency
of the war department and the crooked
ness of the meat packing concerns and
their associated industries. The condi-
ton of these have been found to be inde-
feasible. 1t seems plain that some of
Secretary Bakers associates who are just
a step removed from his own appointees
should be kicked out on the toe of a
double soled boot. We suppose Mr. Baker
has no authority to do this but it is an
immediate duty which devolves upon
