Luke McLuke Says

After a girl has worked hard to get a husband she often finds that she has to work twice as hard to sup port him.
 There was a time when husband knew enough not to dodge when a wife threw dish 'at him. because if he lodged, the missile would be sure to hit him. But the modern husband finds safety in dodging be- cause his wife played ball when she was a girl.
 Every town contains lot of hous- es that look like they need some fresh paint. But mighty few of the women look that way.
 To hear married man sing: "The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave" when he is out with a crowd you would never imagine that he is a human door-mat when he is at home.

A Business Forecast.

Judge Gary the head of the largest industrial corporation in the world, is in situation to fore cast the future of business from post as advantageous that occupied by any business in the country His opinion that business after the is likely to be prosperous is therefore, valuable, and his reasons strongly support the view he takes.
 The enormous war industry of the country will of course, decnie very rapidly after the But war industry is acting as huge damper upon multitude of peace industries. War conservation and war re- presson resulting in the accumulation of immense shortages in goods produced by industries There will De tremendous release of new demands when the hand of is lifted In every city building projects waiting for the return of peace and the steel that is going into will then go into sky scrapers Public improvements and renewals of many kinds that now held up will go forward. The automobile trade the trade in musical instruments and i'll iuxuries of all kinds will come back The who took Secretary McAdoos advice and is now wearing half soles on his pants will send his old garments to the nearest charitable organization and buy
 Abroad there will be the demand for materials with which to rebuild devastated Europe, and all of the neutrals with whom trade is now all but dead will be in the market for imported supplies of many kinds
 It would be too hopeful to say that there will be no jolt when the change comes, but assuredly there is sound reason for thinking that prosperity will not end with the

Wick Losing Everywhere.
(CHARLEs A. DERRY, in Cordova Times.

(CHARLES A. DERRY, in Cordova Times.)
 Wickersham organs throughout the Territory have been particularly exultant the political situation at Nome, where it alleged that trere great disafecton in the ranks of the Democratic party It has been boastingy stated that there would be landslide for Wickersham in the Second Division. So consistently have these statements been made that even Democrats in these parts beginning to give them some credence.
 From private sources however it has been learned that there Is little if any truth in these It IS gratifying to learn that careful study the sit uaton at Nome has brought the conviction that in stead of Wickersham majority the Second Division Will go for Delegate Suzer It is estimated that the second Dlvlslon Will cast something 800 votes and of these, it is predicted, Suzer will receive at least 425.
 From the Fourth division also comes encouraging reports rom party workers. Wcks campaign here apparently has had the opposite effect from that in tended It is reported that wherever he has spoken Ill that Dlvslon he lost votes. the present time it IS confidently predicted that Sulzer will receive one third more votes in the Fourth Division than his op- ponent.

WAR AND SCHOOL CHILDREN.

When the full effects of war began to be felt in Germany there was marked increase in crime, and this was particularly apparent in the conduct of children Juvenile delinquency greatly increased.
 No such tendency has been noted here. Quite to the contrary, Superintendent Withers of the St. Louis schools, for instance, says the children in school abnormay diligent. They have discov- cred that their arithmetic lessogs really good for something, because they show how to figure re- turns thrift stamps and savings certificates while history has taken story book interest because of the desire of the children learn about the tries at For Ike geography has ceased to be bore and nature study has taken practical guise in the gardens
 This is the result that would be expected. Chil- dren much like theil elders and the has certainly made America a whole a much serious-minded country.
 Observers ascribed the waywardness of German schoolboys after the began to a relaxation of the rigid discipline which imposed in the schools a part of the German scheme of educa- ton, which sought to mold inc whole population into body which supported the state, aggran- dized it and could be easily managed by it's rulers.
 When the instruments qf discipline became less efficient because Of the the liberty which the German schooboy found something he did not know how to
