TOO MUCH INTERFERENCE

Various boards politiciansand pos
tai officials have made it very diff
cult for newspapers to do business.
The zone system, putting subscrip-
tions on a cash basis and prohibiting
exchanges, has reduced the newspa-
per output to a minimum.
A constant stream of newspapers
announce suspension under new rul-
ings and increasing cost of labor and
material.
Autocratic orders have in some
cases been revoked by the president,
but active bureaucrats continue to
make life burden for the publishers.
One average city daily newspaper
was put to an expense of $4,000 to
change it's circulation and exchange
system to meet the new regulations.
Smaller newspapers find it impos-
sible to make all the reports and COM
ply with all the regulations and de-
nands of the departments.
vi COURSE, dllel lile wal ooliio VI
these interferences with the liberty of
the press will cease but publishers are
disheartened.
The government has not fully APP
preciated the loyalty or the devotion
of the press in helping put through
every need of our country.
There is not day but new demands
for free publicity are made by various
boards and officials on the newspa-
pers that have been crippled.
Intentionally or otherwise, the in
reference by national authority with
problems involved in getting out
newspapers has gone too far and must
cease.

SAVE OUR SHEEP AND LIVE
STOCK

In some of the big wool growing
states of the west it is proposed to en-
act laws to protect sheep and live
stock against neglect.
High wages paid in other lines of
work and scarcity of labor has in
duced sheep herders in many cases to
abandon their flock without notice.
The result has been some losses
from sheep wandering away and get
ting caught in severe storms and
great suffering from starvation.
1t is proposed to make it peniten-
tiary offense for a sheep herder to
leave his band under such circum-
stances without 80 days notice to al
low owner time to make other ar
rangements and prevent loss and star
walton.
While the legislatures are about it
they should also provide penalties to
punish owners of sheep and live stock
of all kinds for neglect.
OWIleTS Oh range CdCtlc VI ohSSp
should be required by law to protect
their live stock as it is to their own
interests to provide adequate food and
shelter over winter.
The state domestic animal commits
sion should make survey and require
flock owners to have the proper
amount of feed and suitable shelter.
The disposition to take long chances
on a mild winter has cost the nation
millions of dollars in losses and suf-
fering incalculable.
The dumb brute can not speak for
itself and this appeal is to enlight-
ened humanity and intelligent self-in-
terest to save food animals.

BURY THE SOCIAL INSURANCE
FAD

Social health insurance by the state
with a big state insurance machine
behind it has been defeated in Califor-
MIA by enormous majorities but is to
be dragged to the front in the legis-
lature.
The big California social insurance
commission that spent state money
freely to put over its scheme of Prus-
sianizing industries and the workers,
failed by direct legislation and will go
to the legislature.
Social insurance is to be made an
issue in other western states, and the
California commission that was che
ated,to investigate and report its find
ings proposes to exceed its real au-
thority.
This social insurance commission is
the only one that has ever used public
funds to try to put over what it was
only created to investigate, and its
autocratic methods should be severely
dealt with.
There are commissions that earn
their salt but this one would fasten a
foreign system on the taxpayer that
penalties thrift and encourages pro
fessional invalidistic class. Repeal it..

THANKSGIVING COMMUNITY
SERVICE

A committee composed of ministers,
teachers, business men and the ladies
of the Red Cross and War Workers is
making arrangements for a patriotic
community Thanksgiving Service to
celebrate the coming of Peace to the
world.
Owing to uncertainty regarding
other meetings and entertainments
scheduled for the Thanksgiving dates,
the exact date, hour and place of this
service cannot be given at this time,
but these items will be definitely an
nounced in time for you to plan for
the meeting. Everyone is urgently re-
quested to bear the fact of the meet
ing in mind, to watch for the date and
attend. Good music and other fea-
lures are being arranged.

thoroughly conscious of it. Crepe de
Chine is one of the most durable fab
RIGS for underwear, and it is being
used to great extent. One of the
shops is showing very extreme
model of flesh Crepe de Chine and
black Chantilly lace. This, of course,
is luxury, even an extravaganza, and

sees infrequently allover figured ma
terial, usually silk and some times
Georgette crepe. This dainty, flow
cred material looks just like dream
when made into the clever new de-
signs that the creators of fashion are
showing. One nightgown which at.
tracted my attention was developed in
flesh colored Georgette and a tiny
lemon yellow flower spotted all over
it. The neck was edged with this same
delicate shade of yellow ribbon, and
the high waistine was finished with
tiny buds so much like the ones in
the material that it took careful study
to tell the difference.
In the same shop l saw a charming
pair of pajamas. They had the man

HE MEANT WELL.

The hospital has a new night
Waterman. but for all his newness
he was right on the job. So when
he heard a French bugler disturb
ing the calm of early morning,
with some wierd, but shrill call, he
at once ran out with his lantern
and forcibly elected the bugler
from the premises.
Don't you know that this is a
hospital?"
The bugler probably did; any,
way he tried to explain, but the
Waterman was too mad to UNDER
stand French.
Then the Waterman went back
to the hospital, swinging his Ian
tern with the easy assurance that
he had done good job. He swung
himself and his lantern into the in
ner Office to receive congratula-
tons.

adjutant. Don't you know that

then she went on to tell how it all

Mrs. Ewing was in the kitchen
when she heard the front door
slam. She went into the front
room and found it to be her daugh-
ter, Pauline, who had just come
from school.
"Well. dear, how did you get
along at school today" asked Mrs.
Ewing.
mot very WE'LL" answered Paul.
inc. MRS. Bant has gone away to
teach another school and we have
new teacher and just hate her."
Why, Pauline" said her mother,
why do you say that you hate her?
Don't you know that is wrong?"
Well" said Pauline, "if l can't
say that word, I'll have to say that
] don't like her. Today at school
Max Moore the boy who sits. be-
hind me pulled my hair and stuck
me with pins and every time l
turned around she would scold me.
She wouldn't let me explain and
kept me after school tonight. None
OF the girls like her."
What is her name, Pauline?"
Beverly White" replied Pauline.
Beverly White!" exclaimed Mrs.
Ewing.
Yes" said Pauline, do you
know herr"
mo, l don't know that l do" an
swered her mother, but the name
sounds familiar"
Next morning as Pauline was
starting to school, Mrs. Ewing
handed her a note which she told
her to give to Miss White. She
also gave Pauline some money and
told her to go to the picture show
after school.
Pauline gave the note to Miss
White, and this is what it said:
Dear Miss White:
"Wiil you please call on me after
school?
MRS. Ewing
Miss White called after school
as Mrs. Ewing wanted her to. She
explained the incident of the day
before and said that she was max
ing the boy stay in at recess and
for a half hour after school. She
also said that it was against the
rules of the school to whisper and
talk in class without the consent
OF the teacher. Miss White said
that she liked Pauline and that she
reminded her of some one she had
once known.
Miss White" said Mrs. Ewing,
will you tell me your history from
your childhood up? 1t may help
you and it may help me to know it,"
"Oh, Mrs. Ewing" said Miss
White, l have always wanted to
tell someone my history and now
I'm sure. I'll have a sympathetic
listener"
Indeed you will, my DEAR" said
Mrs. Ewing, heartily, and so Miss
White told the following tale.
i am now eighteen years old.
When l was little girl Of five, l
lived with my parents, and my only
sister who was ten years old. My
father was rich merchant.
my sisters name was Mary.
One night / was awakened by some
one coming into the room. 1t was
burglar. tried to wake Mary, but
as she was sound sleeper,
could not.
I'm trying so hard to get her
awake, l forgot for a moment and
sat up in bed. Just then the bur-
glar turned around and saw me.
Before had time to call out, he
