PRESENT OUTLOOK
IN OUR HOME TOWN
A Few Characteristic Signs
of the General Social
Unrest, By Leacock
in Vanity Fair.

We've been having trouble in our
little Home Town. / don't mean to
say that it's awfully important. |
don't suppose that it will compare
with the troubles that we are read
ing about in the world outside. Still,
/ mean to say, it's trouble.
don't want to imply for a mo-
ment that we are complaining. We
are not. We know that all this kind
of thing is the price that we've got
to pay for making the world safe for
democracy. And we mean to see it
through, too.
To begin with, there's a pretty vio-
lent social unrest has hit this place.
The four fellows that work in the
town power house went out on strike
last Saturday. They've been getting
thirty cents an hour and now they're
asking tbirty-two. The town doesn't
see it's way to give it and has offered
thirty-one. So that's where itstands
now. In fact, it's deadlock. Mean
time the power house is being run by
citizens committee.
The men in the planning mill struck
Yesterday. They'd been getting
thirty-one cents for forty-eight
week. with overtime at slxty-six per
cent extra. They want now thirty
cents for forty-four hour week,
with overtime at seventy-fve per
cent. The management are offering
thirty-two cents for a fifty hour
week, with overtime at forty per
cent. A citizens committee is sit
ting on it, but there's no decision
yet. They say there won't be for

Enforce The Law.

Judging from the number of inebriated gentlemen
swaying gently from side to side of side
walks brand of prohibition that have here does
not prohibit. The Is per cent beer widely adver
tised the outside evidently becomes, when taken
the inside exceedingly strong and stimulating.
Human desires often prevail hum an scrupes,
which, being interpreted, that when man wants
drink of whisky badly enough, he can generally find
some malefactor to sell it to him.
The law of the nation prohibits the selling Of intoxi
eating liquor On the opposite side the liquor sellers
greed and the liquor consumers appetite There be
doubt which side the principle Of the matter lies
Our whole system of government is staked the prnc
pie of enforcement. When that principle is chal
enged as it today in than way, there be
but path duty for officials and citizens who want
to be true to their country.-Milwaukee ournal.

The strike of the steel workers has this much
to recommend it, that it is not demand for IN
creased wages. With the wage scale of the big
steel plants running from $3.50 to 81 day for
unskled labor, and skilled labor earning from 81
to $50 dollars daily, the downtrodden employees
simply ask for recognition of their union and GER
tain privileges usually demanded by unions, such
as fixing the working hours, etc. The ultimate
consumer Of the finished steel product who has
been waiting months perhaps, for delivery of his
order will no doubt make glad note of the fact
that this is strike for the establishment of prin-
ciple only.

All this social unrest hits us pref

Mayor Hoan says To He'll with Kings" in
refusing to invite the King and Queen of Belgium
to visit Milwaukee. Judge him not too severely.
For all we know, his dislike for kings may be due
to having some time injudiciously played hand
of them against four aces. That might account
for his inhospitality.

SHORT AND SNAPPY


Never judge a woman's
thoughts by what she says.
Instead of trying to kill two
birds with one stone use a shot
gun.
No man need hope to reach
heaven by walking over his
neighbors.
Almost anybody would rather
have a steady job than steady
work.
A man thinks that his neigh
Dor has no right to hold wrong
views.
1t doesn't require a genius to
make trouble or create a dis
turbance. bns

Ministry Of Knjtters.

with real regret good many OF our
ladies Will lay aside their knitting
needles at the word that their industry
hns supplied the immediate needs Of
the soldiers and sailors. Their record
of millions Of sweaters. helmets md
other protective gear Is unexampled in
the history Of the world, and will be
immortal In the grateful memories OF
the returning heroes. These knitters
did not need to begin their lesson of
thought for others when they took up
knitting. But having kept 1t at the
forefront of attention for so long, they
will certainly be eager to find other
means Of thoughtful ministry.-Con-

MAKING CITIZENS OF ALIENS
Excellent Work Done Through Glasses
Conducted Under Auspices Of eu-
reau Of Naturalization.

Many aliens who enter the naturali-
cation courts rs candidates for citi-
zenship are much better grounded in
the knowledge OF American govern
ment and institutions than the average
native of this country. Indeed. some
aliens are able to answer questions
that the judges themselves are not
able to answer ofrhand.
The reason for their excellent knowl-
edge Of the American government lies
In the care taken by the citizenship
classes. now conducted in public
schools throughout the-eountry by the
bureau OF Naturalization. department
OF labor. to inculcate thorough famil-
iarity with the institutions Of the land
OF their adoption. The courses given
by these classes are designed to raise
the standard Of citizenship by insur-
Ing preparation adequate to meet the
requirements Of the most exacting
state laws.
Naturalization Is somewhat COM
pltcated process at best. for not only
must the alien satisfy the require
mentS Of the state in which he ex-
poets citizenship. but he must also
meet the demands of the naturaliza-
ton court. which has the right to re-
ject his application, at it's own dis
erection.
The citizenship classes aim to make
the way to citizenship as easy as pos
SlDle FOR men and women who are will
ing to ut themselves for it.-Grit.

Get New Kidneys !

The kidneys are the most .overworked
organs OF. the human body, and when they
fail in their work of flterinS out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begin to happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness m the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of appetite; ,indi iges-
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad-
der. These symptoms indicate condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady, Brght's disease. for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay a minute. At the first in
dication of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking
Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules. and
save yourself before it is too, late. Instant
treatment is necessary in kidney and blad-
der troubles. A delay is often fatal.
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules.
For more than 200 years this famous prep
aration has been an unfailing remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
1t is the pure. original HARLEM Oil your
great-grandmother used. About two cap
sules each day will keep you toned up and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store, and
if it does not give you almost immediate
relief, your money will be refunded. Be
sure you get the GOLD MEDAL brand.

sizes.-Adv.
