Passing the Buck
Do YOU know YOUR job?

Do YOU know YOUR job?
Or are you a member of that Sc
lect but. undesirable coterie that
passes the buck?
passing the buck" has become one
Of our greatest national pastirnes. 1t
is the greatest indoor sport of the
person who is not on the job, who is
ignorant and incompetent. Men who
lack personal courage, who have not
the strength to fight .or their own
ideals and convictions, always pass
the buck.
If something goes wrong for which
you are responsible do you hedge and
blame it ON somebody else?
IF you do, you belong in the buck
passing class.
You are in the 'Cellar League, of
Incompetence.
You are afraid to meet issues Of
your own making and you have no
right to a position of responsibility. {
If John Smith comes TO YOU and
asks you question, answer him one
way or the other. Don't pass him on
to some one else.

John Smith that you don't know vour
own job.

Inquiries made at the Maricapo coun- ty headquarters of the United War Work campaign. room g, in the Central school war work building, indicate that all do not know the purpose of the campaign or what it represents. Sev- eral canvassers in the priliminary or s2nization report that in some of the outlying districts they find people who are somewhat confused This is un- doubtedly because the combination as such is a new one, though it's constitu-

 These seven welfare agencies are the
 only ones accredited by the federal de- partments. Therefore, they are the only agencies through which welfare
 work for the boys over there may be done. They furnish all the recreation
 there is. all the books which are read,
 the Tree Writing paper upon which they write home. the war camp community places where the men who have not vet gone overseas are given places to sleep in cities near camps, clubs at
 which to spend their time and restau- rants and cafes where meals within their means are served. The free theatrical entertainments are fur mshed through these agencies. lectures are given and religious services held. They operate the stores which follow lhe men 10 the front and serve free of charge to the men in the front line | trenches tobacco, chocolate, hot coffee ! and soup, doughnuts and the other things which help make that hard life worth living. In short, they are the seven great welfare agencies which create and preserve morale among the fighters.
 Combined the seven agencies have a field army of 15.000 uniformed work CTS. They operate 3,6O0 separate huts and other buildings and maintain such great recreation resorts for the men over there as Ak les Rains, where ! thousands on rest furlough are. enter tained.

A report which has found wide circu- lation at the last end of the campaign declares that the widow and children who can earn a living at the washtub" cannot collect insurance up to $S000 as provided under Amendment 100
 All courts have recognized the de- pendents of the wife and children, re- gardless of whether they had separate employment or whether they had S1 or $1,000,000. Amendment 100 does not and could not set this rule aside.
 In the same connection is a report that Amendment 100 will permit the em- ployer to go into court, but not the employe. Any person in the least fam liar with the government of the country knows, on moments thought, that this

FOR PERSONAL SERVICE-ADp;i-
BOGUS CURRSTONE
 LAW BELIEVED

"Curbstone Law is the subject of an article in Case and Comment by Joseph L. Hooper, who points out that ideas of the law held by millions of persons throughout the country on what they believe to be absolutely re- liable authority are based only on tra- ditiOn MT. Hooper says it is that rule of conduct prescribed, practiced and believed in by about nine-teuths of the inhabitants of the United States" He calls it the quintessence of the common law-the commonest common law. It rests purely on tra- dition; it has only the sanction of it's votaries, but it is a legal system as certainly as the Code Napoleon. Among the maXims of the curbstone law laid down by the writer are the following:
 Curbstone law forbids one man to strike another who is wearing eye glasses. To hit man wearing glasses is a felony, punishable by imprison- ment for a long term of years.
 Under the provisions of curbstone law a witness may not testify to acts seen through a pane of glass. In other words, if you are sitting in a hotel win dow and see a murder committed in the street, you may not, as a witness, give your version of the crime
 Another interesting maxim of this great system is this: "A Woman's S word goes further'n a mans in court If a woman witness says a thing is so. and man witness says it isn't, the woman must he believed. Not may be-must he. To us students of other l systems who look on women witnesses l as so many Sannbirac tbie cae7,,c nose | ing strange: but to the curbstone law | yer it is gospel.
 If man owes you a bill and you | dun him for it on Sunday, that cancels | the bill. This is equally true if you l dun him over the telephone. If a land lord serves his tenant a notice to quit. l the tenant need pay no more rent. even | If he stays on for a month. This mo- tlce absolves him. A prosecuting at | torney must advise everybody and try l every ones case for nothing, whether the matter is civil or criminal. If yuu want to collect a bill, and don't care to | hlre lawyer. the prosecutor must
 take 1t up on behalf of the people" If your lawyer fails to win your case vou may, with cheerful impunity. fail to pay him for his services.
 You must bequeath at least a dollar to each of your children. or your last
 will and testament is void. Many 2
 would-be will breaker huskily breathes
 this maxim into your patient ear. It is useless to argue with him. and more
 useless with her, for this is one point
 on which curbstone authority is ada
 mant.

But not for the Widow and Her Children

Nation now abroad, for whom no great CT service can be performed than the passage of improved laws and the mak- ing of better conditions by the time they return home. To bring about bet ter conditions, to spread the get to- gether" spirit in every way possible is the biggest job the public at home has to carry out before our soldiery returns. Amendment 100 is a great step in this right direction.
 Opponents of Amendment 100 have dirtied much linen with falsehoods dur ing the campaign and are still at it. Their job is at the Washtub for a long time to come But watch out for dirt flying from their tubs up until the last voting minute on Tuesday,
