IAN HONOR TO WISCONSIN,

A hard working newspaper man up
ia Milwaukee has been made a chew
alier of the Legion of Honor by the
French government. Henry Camp
bell, for twenty-five years on the ed1-
torial staff of The Milwaukee Journal
NAV now wear on his breast the "star
OF five double rays" surmounted by a
laurel wreath insignia of the only or
der now existing in France. He shares
this honor with few other disting-
uished Americans including Cardinal
Gibbons, Herbert c. Hoover and Pres
ident Hibben of Princeton university
The Milwaukee Journal was recog-
nized some months ago for it's notable
service to America during the war by
being given the Pulitzer medal. The
recognition bestowed on its assistant
editor by the French government is
due to the effort of Mr.. Campbell to
arouse the interest of Wisconsin in
the cause of France as guarian of the
frontier of freedom.
Mr.. Campbell is native of Wis
cousin. We congratulate him, his
newspaper and his state upon a de-
served honor-Chicago Evening Post

THE SPELL OF THE OPEN FIRE

Oh, the comfort of the first fire of
the season; the cracking wood fire
in the fireplace when nights are
frosty and it's good to be indoors
One always sees love and lovers in
the glowing Goals of the sweet wood
fire. The warm gold flames tell of
the first flare of young love and the
deep red Goals of the constancy Of
love tried and proven.
And the visions of lovers weirdly
woven as the spell of the open fire
grows stronger There is the grac-
iOus colonial maid in her quaint hoop
skirts. She sweeps a low curtesy to
the powdered gallant who bows over
her little hand And the picture she
makes as she goes up the broad stair
way, candle in hand and, smiling turn
for one more look!
Then we see the Quaker maiden
as she sits spinning by the freight
while her stern faced young lover, his
duties all forgot, watches the play of
the flames on her cheek and neck
where one little willful curl escapes
from the smooth white cap.
A fire in the open fireplace sets us
dreaming. 1t brings the flash of re-
membered joy; it sets it's flames in
the heart OF youth and softens the
griefs in the heart of William
Southern in The independence, Mo-,
Examiner.

LOWER HOG PRICE

The possibility that lower corn
prices will result in any marked de-
cline in the retail price of pork as de-
GOA oaun
clared negligible by officials of the u.
S. bureau of markets at Chicago.
If corn dropped to dollar or less,
as some grain men predict it will, the
farmer will hold his hogs for fatten-

was pointed out and this will result
in cutting down hog shipments and q

Toward spring, the hogs held for

PASSING OF THE SHAKERS

One after another the Shakers, the
tic settlements in the United States
and for over century successfully
maintained their simple industries
are surrendering their holdings. Their
villages are no longer populous or
prosperous and their buildings are
being converted to commercial or
philanthropic uses.
A piece of land in Flatbush, N. >,
Y which has been held by Shakers for
225 years, has just been sold. The
settlement at Enfield, Conn, recently
passed into the hands of tobacco
company, and an interesting collec-

NOBLEST USE OF MONEY

The noblest use of money is as
suredly that which means the broad
est dissemination of culture and OF
healthful pleasure of recreation for
the mind and body, of welfare for
the toiling masses of the enlighten-
ment for the many.
The money might be given for
library, hospital, a playground, an
orchestra. A large fund may be lodg
ed in the hands of an individual, but
not that he may spend it on himself.
He becomes trustee and steward. He
is engaged in a great work of heal
ing or of inspiration and the fund
permits him to do that work on a
scale he could not attempt when
crippled fcr want of resources.
The ignoble materialist spends his
money for a vulgar "splurge." He
spends it that he may create envy in
the minds of beholders. But the
lasting riches are not in the furni-
ture we buy; they are in the friends
we make and keep; they are in the
satisfactions that we know in the
quiet sessions with our own souls;
they are in the consciousness of
duty done in every public and pri-
vate relation and of faith kept with
our place of service and with the
community at large.
AS humanity marches along the
winding pathway that leads to the
millennium it does not bestow it's
love and trust on those who care on
ly to feed and clothe and lodge them
selves. 1t bestows it's affection on
the unselfish and it responds to
those who are seeking to keep it.
Those who are rich are those who
have amassed not the dollars or the
pearls, but the abiding tokens of es-
TEEN and of affection that are offer
ed by their fellows while they live

STRANGLING THE COUNTRY
NEWSPAPER

George Marble, editor of the Fort
Scott Tribune, views the newspaper
situation in this manner:
fThe, metropolitan newspapers are
just beginning to realize what the
country papers have been up against
for two or three years in the cost Of
newsprint. The Kansas City Star
complains that it is now compelled to
pay over 500 ton for part of it's
newsprint" and the Seattle Times has
raised the price of its paper from
8 to cents on account of the increase
of half million dollars a year in
the cost of it's white paper.
"Ths suggestion was made recently
at the National Editorial association
meeting that the metropolitan news
papers be restricted by law in the
consumption of white spaper. And
that is practically the only remedy for
the present situation in the newspa-
per trade.
Advertising has increased so enor-
mously in the city papers that they
are compelled to publish page after
page and section after section of the
most trifling and no-account reading
matter to balance the advertising.
They have been able to increase their
rates almost without limit and thus
provide revenue for limitless
amount of newsprint, almost regard
less of the price The Star gets the
bulk of its newsprint much cheaper
than any country paper can buy it
and pays the fancy price only for such
tonnage as it requires to handle its
abnormal volume of advertising. The
country paper has been paying the
fancy price all along for three years
and it is limited by the possibilities
of its advertising field.
IF the metropolitan newspapers
would eliminate the effete matter
from their columns especially from
the Sunday editions, restrict their adj

vertising somewhat, and make legit-
innate subscription charge they would
make as much money as they are
making and still leave enough news
print to make it possible for the coun
try publisher to get his newsprint at
a liveable price.
Thousands of country newspapers
have been crushed out of existence
the past three years by the high
prices resulting from the feyerish de-
mand for supplies. created by the
metropolitan papers, and by their low
subscription prices. Thousands more
will be crushed out the coming year.
The country newspaper is as neces-
sary in the life and development of
/ the country and its social order as
the metropolitan paper, and it is not
out Of reason to ask congress to save
the country press from the destructive
methods of the metropolitan papers
in their ruthless reaching out fol
more profits in these strenuous
times" The Publishers Auxiliary
