This Fellow Clipped Himssli


A man we once knew never
seemed to get along very fast. and
everybody wondered why. He was
man endowed with average intel
ligence and hard worker, but he
never seemed to amount to much
SO far as influence in his cOmmun-
ity was Oncerned and he did not
make very big success of his farm
although he did make fair living
He never knew he might pick up
a valuable COW or horse or piece of
farm machinery; he and his family
missed half OF the fun of living be-
cause they never knew when things
it was good to 60 to were going to
! happen; he sent his crops to mar
ket when they were harvested and
took whatever the market price
happened to be that day without
any thought of watching for prOpi-
tiOus times; he not only knew little
OF what was going on in the out
side world, but he did not know
what was going on within his own
county, his own home town, and
even his own farming district. Con-
sequently, his friends seldom
stopped to chat about public mat
ters and he was never consulted
regarding any movement for COM
munity betterment This man did
not take his home town newspaper.

RADISHES, ONIONS,
JELLIES AND JAMS,
VS.. MY CHOW

Do you know what will make the
boys of the One Hundred and
Twenty-third feel tickled, perhaps
more than the celebration, when
they arrive home?
Just stop and think of the many
fong months they have been fed on
army chow, and how they must long
for some of those good old fash
toned delicacies again, the memory
of which only remains with them.
Now, after you have done that,
you would hate to think of your
self without those things that taste
so good-go down in your cellar
and select samples of your best
jellies and jams. or better still, pre-
pare some, and go out in your gar
den and pick out the biggest and
best radishes and onions and make
arrangements TO take them to the
Augustana gymnasium on or before
the day previous to the arrival of
the boys in Rock Island.
After all is said and done, can't
you picture those war-weary SOL
der boys literally diving into such
a feed that will be set for them?

Wives and Mothers
in-Law Save Women
of Soviet Hungary

[Correspontience OF Associated Press J
asudapest. April 2t.--It was due to u
family quarrel that Hungary escaped
having its women "comlnized' after the
fashion in the Russian republic" OF
Saratoff, rather than to the adherence
of Bvia Kun of the scheme as the
latter afterwards states.
The law to communize women was
actually framed and in the printers
hands ready for publication when Herr
Weltner. one Of the cabinet of bright
young men who are now ruling the
cate of the former kingdom, went home
for supper. During the meal he told
his wife and his mother law in
glowing terms about the projected re-
forms. What are you doing Tor
women they asked.
Weltner then explained that in fu-
ture women would he free too: that
they would be permitted to choose
their own husbands and discard them
Il they liked by the simple process of
paying a few cents for a legal paper,
declaring their "unfitncss" for married
life. Further conversation developed
the fact that the new law also gave
husbands the same right; that chill
dren might be turned over 10 the care
of the state so that both husband and
wife would get rid of the duties and
responsibilities of rearing their Off
spring.
DO you mean to tell me that you
can get rid Of me from one day 70
another and marry the next day r you
like" demanded young Frau Weltner.
That's how the Inv stands" re-
piled the husband.
Then the storm broke. Both wife
and mother-in-law began to scream
and frenzied scene ensued, the up
shot of which Nas that the women de-
manded that Wsltncr should get the
law stopped or they would leave him
at once and would moreover get all
the wives, mothers and mothers in
law of all the ministers to do the
same.
Weltner. in the interest OF his home
comfort and peace eventually prom
ised to do his best and use his intlu-
ence with his fellow mcmbers thru his
paper, the Peoples Voice, to get the
law rescinded. He went TO the tele-
phone and had a conversation with
Rela Kun.and the other ministers and
then called up the printers. telling
them that no proofs need be pulled"
from the forms where the law lay. He
also ordered that the type should be
melted up and the copy destroyed. 1t
was thus that the law died.
