ANOTHER TRADITION WEAKENING

One Of the many sidelights in this
present political muddle at Washington
is the quiet departure from the long
established seniority rule Of the Senate
Tie change is especially noticeable on
the Democratic side, as that party has
most consistently practiced the rule.
Senator Chamberlain, now insurging
against the administration has been the
President S representative for war matters
in the upper house ever since there was
need for such representative. Yet he
is not entitled to place of leadership
because of length of service in the Senate
No fewer tff4n | j Of his fellow-DemOcrats
outrank him in seniority.
The successor chosen by the admins
tration as its spokesman In the Senate is
Kirby Of Arkansas, il now appears, and
Kirby is one of the very youngest mem
bers Of the body, having come to it barely
year ago.
The Senate itself will doubtless con-
tinue TO stick to its traditions and will
go along appointing its oldest men to
chairmanships of committees as before,
but obviously their prestige will be sadly
dimmed if the President succeeds in
giving superior prominence TO Senators
Of his own choosing Detroit Free Press.

Help the Associated Charities.

When the Associated Charities, several
weeks ago, made appeal TO the people for
contributions TO the funds necessary TO its
work, it faced situation that even then
was quite serious. 1t had demands on
hand and the prospect of demands in
future, that made it necessary to have
sufficient money at hand. While respons-
es were fairly generous, they failed TO reach
the desired total, and the need Of money
still faces the organization in the perform
ance OF its most important work.
And now a far more serious situation
oonfronts the Associated Charities The
unusually cold weather, the heavy falls Of
snow and other conditions have operated
to cause unesiness and some deprivation
even among well-to-do persons. Think
how these severe weather conditions must
make the lot of the poor almost unbear-
able. These unfortunates must be helped.
And it is the duty of the Associated
Charities 10 help them.
The organization has pressing need OF at
least ZOO and no doubt could use more
In practical work of relief. For this SUM it
must depend upon the people of Will
mygton. Let all who can do so make
contributions, according TO their ability.
Every little viii help.

WHERE OUR BOYS ARE FIGHTING

This is not the place to att empt n
detailed forecast of how soon or how
effectively America will begin to count in
the war on European soil II is n subject
on which Washington and the country
are now engaged IN series of compli-
Gated debates and studies. The main
outlines are simple, and under the new
livera! censorship may now be stated
In the neighborhood of the Rhine-Marne
canal, near the Lorraine frontier, in front
of Nancy and Lunevii.e, stands Pershing s
small army. : IL IS tied 10 our base Mt
Brest by line of railway which American
engineers have built. or are still building,
across nearly GOO miles of France The
region we occupy has been "quiet
sector" almost since the second month Of
the war, when the kaiser's hope was
shattered on the Grand Couronne before
Nancy
Whether our new forces have been
placed there because the French leaders
believe the sector will remain quiet, or,
on the contrary, have been put there to
draw on themselves part of the fire which
has fallen on the Allies line from the
Argonne TO the North Sea, we cannot say.
Perhaps extra-military policy entered into
the choice. Had the situation permitted
the placement of American troops in
Belgium, there they would undoubtedly
have gone for Belgium still plucks hardest
at the heart of America. Failing that,
Lorraine has been chosen as the place
next potent for Americans New York

PRESS COMMENTS.
All! HERE'S THE REMEDY.

The time has como TO speak plainly
and conceal nothing
We advocate, therefore, the immediate
abolition of the United States Weather
Bureau and the creation of Director
General of Weather
The old, illogical restrictions Of climate
must be swept away. They are sur
vivals of mistaken theory Of competition.
1t must be realized that, far from being
diametricaIly opposed, the interests oi
Florida and Maine are common Both
want to be habitable. Even California,
the land of perpetual sunshine and as
pretty AS. its motion pictures, cannot
thrive unless people arc enabled to work
long enough and make money enough
in New York to go out TO California and
spend it.
Congress should give the new Director
General of Weather full powers to pool
temperatures, and Congress should fur
ther guarantee the country three year
meteorological average. However low
the baromctcric and thermometric levels,
the people must be able to exist and 90
about their business.
Let there be no delay lest popular
resentment, icicr than the winds Of the
North Pole, freeze the dilatory legislators
until they are as marble and lifeless AS
the heroes of Statuary Halll-New York
Sun.

THE TROJTRJE MAKER

God made the world all right, the sky
Is beautiful to see,
An every star that wrinkles by
Is perfect as can be
An every rose o. June is fine
Accordjh' to His plan;
The bitter things that make us whine
Are mostly caused by man.
Some days I've stood alone out there
Bareheaded in the sun
An tried TO count the splendors rare
That God himself has done;
I've marveled at the tentle breeze
Which brought me perfumes sweet;
The beauty of the stately trees,
The clover at my feet.
I've watched the hlackbirds on the fence
An heard the thrushes sing;
I've seen the quail in thickets dense
An all the joys Of spring;
An standin' there surrounded by
Delights to make me glad
I've tried TO puzzle out just why
so many hours are sad.
