REPUBLICANS
HAYEPLAN FOR
REORCANLZINC

At a meeting of the Republicans OF
CordOva at the city hall on Friday
evening a local organization was con-
summated and the following officers
elected:
Preident, Nathaniel Greene: vice
president, George Hazelet; secretary,
Frank H. Foster; treasurer, George
DoUley; executive committee, DR.. w.
Darcy Chace, Henry Slater and
James l.. Galen.
There being Republicans from
other districts present, general dis
cussion was had and it was the unan~
imous opinion that immediate steps
should be taken looking toward a new
territorial organization by reason OF
the removal of the national commit
teeman and other officers from the ter
ritory, leaving the Republicans with
out head or any party cohesion.
by COLSCIL tAAC ASAAO"AAASo
proposed plan was adopted:
That there should be Republican
clubs formed in each recording pre-
cipct, from which clubs should be
elected delegates to divisional or
ganization, and that these delegates
should meet and organize divisional
organization, one for each division.
These divisional organizations should
elect four territorial committeeman,
one from each division, who, with the
national committeeman, hould COM
prise the territorial head of the party.
A meeting will be held Friday
night at 8:15 at place to be deslg-
mated in Thurday's issue of the
Times, at which time all Republicans
are invited to be present and to join
the club. A roll of membership is
now open at the office of the secre-
tary, in the Ostrander building.

Pine KNOT PHILOSOPHY

COMMON SENSE VS.. JEALOUSY.
~ YER since woman entered bust

felt a certain sense of uneasi-
ness. Fear that her husbands assoc

make for the undOfng of home ties,
has beset the timid wife.
Usually, the fear has been ground
less. despite an occasional distance to
the contrary. Business girls. no less
than others. have a keen sense OF the
relative value Of orthodox marriage
and unorthodox romance.
Such attachments arise, it is true,
but their number IL small In compari-
son 70 the opportunities. When the
attachment does exist, the wife does
not better matters by upbraiding her
spouse. She merely makes him stub

he would soon tire If left to himself.
If the wife Will keep still and keep
posted, she will ind. nine times out

Even though the man may be tempted.
he is going to consider well before
taking the final step.
And the girl, too, is going to consid-
er the effect upon her matrimonial
chances. She usually will stop before
her name has been furnished.
Business is a mystery to most 1om-
eni. But In this, as in all else, they
must take some things Tor granted.
One is this: II they can not trust
men-and they can trust most men
more than they think-they can trust
women to keep their value in the mar
rage mart above par.
Merely because she enters business,
no girl loses this universal feminine
instinct. It is q safeguard which the
wife at home may safely count upon
