terests, the car of public morals, the
car of institutional affairs develops
squeaks, where do we put the grease?
The Idaho car of legislation will
roll along soon. We can hear the
squeaks now They will grow louder
as official mileage is made until they
may assume the comparative audi
bility Of flock of magpies. There
will be plenty of grease and lots of
help. Will the grease be applied to
the squeaks or will it be smeared on
the windshield OF the upholstery
Putting it another way, will the
needful be taken care of and the non-
essentials disregarded,> OF will the
time be taken up with more or less
trivial and local subjects and the
great constructive needs of the state
be neglected. As we look over the
roster we are imbued with the hope
and the belief that the worth while
things will be given attention to the
exclusion of the others.
Everything cannot be covered or
corrected by law, anyway. There are
many squeaks incorrectly located in
the shackle bolts of individual and
local correctives whereas the noises
really proceed from the body itself.
If it is built of patriotism and bolt
ed together with the spirit Of cooper
alton and cemented with healthful
public opinion-well, the little squeaks
do not matter, anyway.
Our commercial car, our industrial
car, also develops squeaks, but what's
the use of putting grease on the ruin
ming board when it's needed around
the wheels?
If the wheels don't turn properly,

According to President A. H. Up
ham, at many school individual
churches provide a pastor for the
students of their belief, but the plan
of one minister for those of any
faith is an innovation in American
schools. He said further that al

were wisely drawn, and non-sectar-
ianism strictly adhered to, much good

inevitable breakdown.

How many people are inviting the
breakdown, with its great loss to
everyone? Why not strengthen the
car where strength is needed, for the
benefit of all, instead of daubine
around with the grease where it mars
and destroys and deprives the car OF
power and mobility, to the distinct
detriment and financial loss to all?
Let's put the grease where the
really and menacing squeaks are.

was secretary Of legation at the ex'

fell at his post In the halls of congress
in his eighty-first year, he was in the
service of his country 80 Of those 81
years.
A president and the son Of a presi.

Washington to johnson were his asso-
ciates. From the day he climbed q
height near his Massachusetts, birth

Is miles away, he was witness to
nearly every great event in the history
Of the nation until the close Of the
Mexican war.
With John Adams in congress the
child had to be the man Of the family,
and at nine he regularly rode his horse
to Boston to fetch the mail. At ten
his father took him with him on his
mission to France. BY twelve he had
crossed the Atlantic four times, run

THE craftsmanship Of every great
i nation still passed from father to
son until the presidency of the United
States was created, when the first
free-for-all race and an even start for
the highest prize was opened to the
sons Of men regardless of the accidents
of birth. In this fair test, new blood
has won every time with only two ex-
ception in a century and quarter.
Even John Quincy Adams did not
win the race, but was 0utrun at the
polls by Andrew jackson, the son of
an immigrant. Political parties hav-
ing disappeared in 1924, four men en-
tered the contest and deadlocked the
electoral college, which left the house
Of representatives to choose from
among the three highest candidates.
This eliminated the fourth man-Hen-
ry Clay-who aided in the election OF
Adams and who received from the
new president the appointment OF
secretary of state.
The only non-partisan administra-'
ton the country ever has had was not
a shining example of success, Uncom-
promising, alone, John Quincy Adams
stalked his solitary way, never once
turning to the right or to the left from
the strait and narrow path Of indepen.
dence. With no sense Of humor to re-
lieve his sense Of self-righteousness. to
light up his view Of his fellows or to
thaw his own icy virtues, 1t was i'm
possible for his supporters to feel any
enthusiasm for him.
John Quincy Adams led the simple
life in the White House. Getting up
at 5, he built his fire, read his daily
portion Of the Bible and while the

above serving the people as one of
the selectmen of his town.
Washington was aghast at the sight
Of an ex-president taking his seat in
the hurly-burly OF the lower house
only two years after leaving the
White House. Without joining the
Democrats or the Wings, with no fac

Meeting the daughter of the American
consul in London, Marylander, she
and the young diplomat were married

Among his last acts as president,
John Adams removed his son from
