Cogs and Gods

In the scheme of things in this world some must be leaders and others, followers. Some must be mere cogs in the machine and others gods in the machine. In business enterprises some must be heads and managers and others workers. In every large force of in any enterprise some men will he promoted and will work on in the places rom which their fellows taken to higher. more responsible and better paid positions
 It could not be otherwise. We not all be managers for then there would be nobody to do the work, the dirty work and often the illpad work It left to every to aspire to be a god rather than ! cog. We suppose there some men so consti- tuted that they be nothing else but cOgs. Na- ture has been less kind than Declaration of In- dependence for she has created all men equal All men not mentally capable of attaining leader ship Those that enriched by nature become foremen, superintendents and managers. Nature has given many of us a spirit of contentment with our surroundings and there we stay.
 Nearly all the great railroad managers of the present day nearly all the great industrial leaders from the common herd. They were cogs but especially useful cogs There was Schwab. If he had been content to give "a good days work for a sood days pay" Schwab would now be grizzled worker in a steel mill. Yoakum if he had had no imbition except to receive the wages of a section land would have remained section hand to the end 7f his days. These not exceptional cases It is he rule that the great men in industry and largely commerce have come from the bottom. That is he only way 10 learn the business thoroughly Man. tsers though they may be like poets born and not made, must be polished and fitted by actual and iard contact with work. Many a born manager has 'ailed because he was never in the ranks
 Harry Lauder in his address before the Rotary club the other day said that if a man had it in him and gave the best he had, he could not avoid recog hilton in full measure. He deprecated the observe anee too closely of the fixed work day The six hour man, he said would never be anything else but a hour man. So will every man who insists on giving just what he is paid for remain where he is He has no chance to show his goods He is shut out of the promotion market.
 The clock watcher will watch the clock until hi, eyes grow dim with age that he can no longer see it He suffers atrophy of the brain the most val uabe part of the man.
 We doubt whether Schwab could have risen out of eight-hour ten or even tvelve-hour rut The who gets into a six-hour rut is hopeless We favor a reasonable work day of eight hours We believe that it is natural work day for those who expect always to work with their hands and there must always be large number of men who can be only cogs. We cannot get on without them But the who wants to get out of the rut and be no longer cog should not be deprived of that chance

Good Riddznce

We not sorry to hear that large numbers of our foreign born population about to leave our shores because beer and wine denied them. That is what may call the automatic deportation of undesirable element. A whose objection to country is dearth of the of getting drunk is not of the material of which the best citizens composed The voluntary departure of these sincere mourners of John Bareycorn will save us a lot of expense in proving that they are otherwise the kind of people of the oppressed nations which we have invited to take refuge here.
 We can conceive that may violently op- pose prohibition; that he may it's restrictions 10 such extent that he will move from an arid area to moister one; from a dry state 10 wet state. He may be able without sacrificing any material interest. But when foreigner tells us that in consequence of having been denied the god given and late constitutional privilege of getting drunk he is going to leave us we will bid him God speed and will observe that we have just noticed that his room is worth more than his company

OUR BODIES ARE LIKE SPoNGEs
 BY Honora Costinan

Just to show how important a part the food you eat and the water you drink play in your life, let remind you that the first time you were weighed the scales registered only or pounds. How much do you weigh now? Can you account for the differ ence? Part of the water you have drunk and part of the food you have eaten make up the difference in your first and your present weight.
 Potatoes, meat, bread. waterfall cassss 3f foods are the things you are made of and that you are The hands that you find useful in work and play do not resemble mixture of potatoes meat bread and milk or water! neither do the pastries in the store windows resemble the ingredients of which they were made Directly, food and water make up the blood Indirectly, they build up and add to your muscles, bones and skin. It is food and water which cause your hands, arms, and all parts of your body 10 plump out and grow from very tiny members to sometimes ten or fifteen times their original size Now can you see why 1t Is so important that you should drink plenty of pure water and eat plenty of good nourishing food? {
 Tn composition our bodies much like sponees They are so much like them that we might truthfuy call ourselves human sponges Water makes up about 'O per cent of our weight, and is held in the sub stance Of the body in somewhat the same manner as water is held in sponge

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 6.-A country storekeeper in q southern mountain section recently wrote to the American Library Association ask ing for books for discharged soldiers and others who lived in his neighbor- hood. He said the people in his sec ton had no books to real. He said that one of his customers was one legged discharged soldier who was supporting himself by making candy with the help of his mother and sister, and who wanted a book on candy making.
 The books were sent in accordance with a plan which the American Li- brary Association has for supplying ex- soldiers, and ultimately other people, with books by mail when there is no local library to supply them. The storekeeper wrote back that the one legged candy maker was delighted with his book, but that the rest of the neighborhood had not risen to the opportunity to read as eagerly as he had hoped. He said that most of them read nothing except mail order cata- logues because that was the only kind of literature they had been assustomed to. He also reported that sixteen per cent of the people who come down the big road" had never learned tc read or write. He asked. therefore that copy books and spelling books be sent, so that the people might learn to read.
 If there were many country store keepers like this one, the task whict the American Library Association has set itself would be greatly simplified The task is to make books available to all the people in the United States
