1922 It was announced that the ground
was frozen to an abnormal depth at

gang Of men to the task Of ascer-
tanning the depth Of the frozen STRAIT

The Russian Academy Of Science took
the matter In hand and between 1898
and 1874 dug to depth OF 882 feet.
and then abandoned the shaft because
the earth was stin frozen as hard as

Etiquette Of the FLAG.

1.-THE etiquette Of the flag" says
v. B., SIS still unknown to many per-
sons. One Detroit society recently
washed Its flag. and the result was
a cross between crushed strawberry
and the blue Of bedraggled Monday
morning. It would seem that by this
time everybody should know that the
flag is never to be washed, but that
when 1t has outlived Its usefulness II
should be burned. Some folks, az the

1.-THE little old Ford may amble ri

THE little old Ford may amble righ'
along but it will have to go into the
Democratic ranks to do it. Henry
Ford, who has made name as well as
millions Of dollars for himself by pro-
ducing q good machine for the money,
tried to get the nomination for United
States Senator in his state, having
been hand-picked for the position. 30
anxious was Henry for recognition that
he tried to get on the Republican as
well as the Democratic ticket. The
former party did not have any use for
him and refused to accept him, and to
Its credit refused to have man with
his record. But the Democrats, under
orders. took care of Henry. but it is to
be hoped that the good people OF Mich
igan will not endorse the choice at the
election. The Philadelphia Ledger
voices this opinion as follows: with
Newberry securing the Republican
nomination for Senator in Michigan
with q handsome plurality OF votes,
and Henry Ford getting the Democrat
ic Endorsement, which was ordered
from Washington, the issue between
the two Is clean cut. The Ford candi-
dacy is in the open, on partisan lines,
and judging from the primaries and
the known attitude Of the state. Mich
igan can be depended upon to send
Newberry to the Senate. and not a
citizen who, whatever may be his yir-
tues, shifts his public opinions with
the ease of weather vane. AS re-
suit Of letting other people make up
his mind for him, Mr.. Ford has a re-
cent record Of grotesque and fatal in
consistencies which include the peace
ship folly and the waste OF thousands
OF dollars on an anti preparedness cam
paign. Whatever uses Mr.. Ford may
have, now that he seemingly has come
to his senses In some things, it is clear
be will be far better employed speeding
up the industrial output at Detroit
than in fussing over little understood
public policies in the Senate. There
Is every reason to believe that the ma
iority of voters in michigan feel the
same way. and in this instance it is
more than likely that any interference
Of the White House in the interest OF
fetching Ford to Washington will re-
dound to the triumph OF the only real
candidate in the field, Truman H.
Newberry."

mental pose and tranquility make bread taste bet

Why not emulate the example of the old lady VINO
said she had only left, but, thank God they
hit"
That's pretty good advice to follow IN the
days when are adjusting our whole lives to
meet war time conditions. If you face them
with equanimity of spirit and philosophical COM
posture, you'll not notice the discontinue.
You can make hell out of heaven and heav-
en- out of hell. That is your disposition of mind
toward your environment may have such an in
fluence over you that the most beatific surround
ings will be torment, and conversely the most
annoying circumstances not be noticed.
Really, the war has brought very little an
noyance to us. The food and fuel regulations
here are insignificantly light compared with the
restrictions enforced by police order in Europe
But granted that they are annoying, the CT
villains of the United States cannot compare their
lot with the boys in the camps, and then conclude
they have more orders to obey than the fighters.
Whenever you feel like grumbling, remember
that your sons and brothers are gladly serving
with the colors and bringing sacrifices that loom
gigantic in comparison with the trivial self-de-
malls asked of you.
A grumbler has no place in the American COM
monwealth today.
