LEONARD WUUu
FOR PRESIDENT

William Allen White advances Mai.
Gen. Wood as candidate for presl-
dent. setting forth his argument in
the following editorial. which ap-
peared recently IL the Emporia Ca
zette:
.'The other evening in Emporia a
cild-mannered. soft-yoiced man stood
before dinner company OF zoo and
TALKED In an engaging conversational
tone for an hour about the war. about
the boys whom he had trained. about
what he had seen in short visit to
the battle lines and about the meaning
of the war to mankind. He did not
use a figure of speech: he made no
impassioned gesture: he did not lift
his tones once to the oratorical pitch
Yet his auditors listened and ap-
plauded and stood on their feet and
clamored for more. II was a beau
tifuI tribute they made to the sincerity
of the man. to his fundamental hon.
esty of soul. And for week now the
people of Emporia have had one rather
fixed idea; and that is that Leonard
Wood. major general of the American
army. is OF presidential size and would
make an ideal Republican candidate
He stands for the best traditions
of the Republican party. He repre-
sents all that is forward-moving and
intelligent in the party. He has dem
onsirated during the war. By his spIen-
did efficiency. by his fine patience TN
der a genuine grievance and by his
moral courage in a time OF duress that

who can stand the slings and arrows
of ill-fortune. who can indeed staEi

Gen Wood is that kind of man
He has had exceptional trimming for
the high oaice of President. He has

life. He viii make an acceptable

NOW Is TYfe lime -''-'
for Christmas
Advertising

Although there have been more peo-
pie on the streets the last few days
than at any time since the influenza
epidemic reached the community. hol-
iday shopping is far from brisk owing
to the prevalence of the contaGjon.
People generally appear to be waiting
for the passing of the disease before
doing their Christmas buying. but with
less than three weeks left in which TO
do it, the matter cannot be very much
longer delayed. The special decora-
tion OF the stores. the display OF holi-
day goods in their windows and the
approach Of the Christmas season will
soon prove irresisttable and the
streets will be thronged with purchas-
ers.
Now is the time to advertise holi-
day goods. There will be demand
for them and the merchant that makes
known what he has for sale will at
tract the shopper and will be the first
TO dispose of his stock With only
16 more shopping days till Christmas
the advertiser should not postpone his
publicity campaign. He should do
it now" IL he wants the trade. Early
purchasing is the new habit. 1t is
preparedness in gift buying. and can
not be put OF without something akin
to disaster.
Christmas candy viii not be restrict
ed by the food administration this
year. Some OF the cardy stores. in ac-
cordance with voluntary conserve
tion plan undertaken upon the initia-
tive of the trade itself. have been re
fusing to sell more than one pound al
time to a customer. but this restric-
tion is not regarded by the food admin
istration as a necessary conservation
measure now that the sugar shortage
has been materially relieved by the
government
The usual Christmas tree cuttins
privilege on the public reserve will not
be granted by the forestry OFFICIALS this
year. In years past permit was IS
sued and trees could ne taken from
the forest preserves. Hundreds of
choice trees were removed and the for
estry officials are opposed TO any fur
ther depredations in that respect
Prosecution will follow in case of the
capture OF those that take trees. There
will be plenty of trees for sale cut
from private property. the forestry
men say.
