knows who is happy and who has
the blues she knows all the sorrows,
she knows all our joys, she knows
every girl who is chasing the boys I;
she knows of our troubles, she
knows of our strife, she knows every
man who talks mean to his wife; she
knows every time we are "out with
the boys" she hears the excuses
each fellow employs; she knows ev-
cry woman who has a dark past, she
knows every man who is inclined TO
be fast; in fact there's a secret meath
each saucy curl of the quiet, demure
looking telephone girl II the tele-
phone girl would tell what she
knows, it would turn many friends
into bitterest foes; she would SOW a
small wind that would soon be a
gale, engulf us in trouble and land
us in Jail; she could let go a story
which gaining in force, would cause
half our wives to sue for divorce
she could get all the churches mix.

VIII the president discontinue his
ereignty to asIeague Of nations? Will
the president terminate his cordial
relations with the extreme radicals
the friend of Mooney and Hillstrom,
the Minors, the Kate O'Hares, the
Trotskys, and long list of other
trouble-makers who have never had
particle of sympathy for American
institutions? Will the president
abandon that extreme partisanship
which has dominated his entire ad-
ministration, even in the conduct of
the war? Will the president dis
courage extravaganza and waste in
management of the public business,
and insist upon restoration of eff
cheney, particularly in the postal
service? Will the president yield
his idea that is is a one-man gov
eminent, to be ruled in all it branch
es by him alone?
"As the Times truthfully says,
there are only eight months more OF
the Wilson observation-disclosures
ly more than seven, now, in fact.
Why, then, should Wilson insist up
on imposing upon the American peo-
pie continuance of the follies which
have been repudiated by the elctor-
ate? In 1918 he appealed for an
endorsement of his administration
by the election of a democratic con-
gress. His request was met with q
decisive rebuff, and a vote of lack OF
confidence was recorded. Notwith-
standing that expression of public
TIT 90
claiming to speak for the American
people and tried to fasten upon them
obligations which they had never ex-
pressed a willingness to assume. He
told Europe that America demanded
the establishment of the league and
came back to tell America that it
must accept the league or break the
heart of the world.
President Wilson's political OPP
ponents have not been unfair. No
president was ever given greater
powers than those bestowed upon the
present occupant of the white house
with the approving votes of political
opponents. But Mr.. Wilson's polit-
ical opponents have been consistent
ly for America first. They have had
due regard for their oath to uphold
the constitution and the laws of the
United States. They have felt the
burden Of responsibility as members
of a coordinate branch of the gov
eminent. Wherever possible, they
resolved doubts in favor of the exc
cutive in the conduct of the war,
but they could not, in fulfillment Of
their official duties surrender the
legislative branch of the govern
ment to Mr.. Wilson. The records
will show that during the war Mr..
Wilson had as generous support
from his political opponents as he
did from his political friends, in re-
turn for which he endeavored to use
the power of his office to turn an
election to his partisan advantage,
"The pertinent question is, rs it
not too much to hope that America
may now get fairer treatment from
President Wilson,"

HAD FINGER AMPUTATED

Avis Johnson, the twelve-year old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. l.. c. John
son met with a serious accident
about supper time Tuesday evening
that resulted in the amputation of
the second finger on her right hand.
Avis was in the bakery in the rear
of the building occupied by her
brother, Irving Johnson, and was
playing around the bread mixer,
in which are large sharp knives. The
mixer runs by power and Avis threw
on the power and then threw it off
again. Before the revolving knives
in the mixer had stopped, Avis put
her hand inside. One of the sharp
blades struck her hand with such
force as to cut the finger. The
member was. so badly cut and mutt
lated that it was necessary to ampu-
tate it above the second joint The
injury has caused her a great deal of
pain, but at this writing she is get
ting along as we'll as could be ex-
pected.

THE FARM LABOR QUESTION

LIN ThAtrh IAhDoN SSANVAhoIN
The past season has shown that
the question Of labor on the farm is
one Of vital importance. Several
million farms in this country needed
additional labor. Some relief was
afforded through the release from
the army of thousands of men who
were either employed in outdoor
work previous to the war or who
through their army experience
have come to prefer outdoor work
to that which they we're doing be-
fore they entered the army. But
the problem was not entirely solved
in this way, as the supply of labor
released through the rehabilitation
of the army fell short of the amount
needed by the American farmer.
The obvious solution to this prob
lem lies in making the farm attrac-
tive to labor and in making full use
of all labor saving devices at the
service Of the farmers. Factory
hours and factory wages still attract
labor despite the fact that the actual
working conditions are far less
healthful than those on the farm,
And of course city life, too, is pow
erful attraction. The farmer, how
ever, Is not at the disadvantage he
once was. The tractor and other
improved farm implements have
made work lighter and in the last
year or so there has been a tre-
mendous increase in the use of
small electric light and power
plants which not only give as bright
and cheerful light as that enjoyed
in the city, but which furnish pow
ed for pumping, churning, milking,
separating, washing and 4 hundred
other tasks which used to make farm
life drudgery. On these improve
ments rests the farmers chance OF
securing the help he needs.

PACIFIST cox

1t was Gov. Cox, the seeker after
German votes in his state. who, only
few months before we took up
arms against Germany, permitted his
paper to publish the following fer
vent prayer for pacifism God
grant that tie next arm lifted to
WELD a sword so foolshly may be
paralyized and that the brain be
stopped from thinking before it con-
ceives of war" He was ready for
his own country to suffer any indig-
mites at the hands of Germany rath-
er than take up arms in dts de-
tense.
Now it is Gov. Cox, the presiden-
tial candidate, who would involve
the United States in every war un-
der the sun, through the acceptance
of obligations in the league Of ma
lions covenant. He witnessed with
equanimity the murder of American
citizens on the high seas by German
U-boats, but he shrieks with horror
at the spectacle of some of the puny
states Of Europe settling their at
fairs by force, although not a single
American life. may be endangered.

PIGS BRING RIG RETURNS

Selling for $40, 900 an animal for
which he paid $50 little over eight
months ago is the record made by
Howard L. Cook of Manchester. He
sold Great Orion Sensation to Guy
Peters of Dewitt and delivered the
animal by truck to Cedar Rapids.
This hog was sired by the grand
champion Of the world, but was pur-
chased by Mr.. Cook on October 80,
1919 for only $50, the pig then be-
ing ony seven months old. The pig
never had taste of corn, but dined
on four or five gallons of fresh sep
arated milk and two gallons of roll
ed oats. He is now forty inches
high and seventy-four inches long
and is expected to weigh 1900
pounds when he attains his full
growth

ing that period would it not be de-
cent to let up in the ferocity Of the
attacks upon him? Thus does the
Times display it's usual craftiness in
political sophistry. The question
carries a false assumption and is de-
signed to distract attention from the
real issues before the country.
"a more pertinent and appropri-
ate question for the Times to ask
and one that the whole country is
asking-is whether it is too much to
hope that the president will now
give the country fair treatment.

COUNTY EXHIBIT

The county exhibit is going to be
minus spring and fall wheat and red
top unless some one assists the
county agent or county club agent in
locating them.
Last week the county agent drove
to several fields where he had the
wheat located but found every field
so badly infested with rust that IT
was impossible to secure a sample.
They want a sample of spring and
fall wheat which s not covered with
rust, red top, sample of Iowa los
and Early Champion oats.
Farmers having any OF the above
grains in shock should call the farm
bureau office and they will drive out
and get them.

CARRIED 4HONEsTY" TOO FAR
Trusted Clerk Rather 0verdId u, and
Lest the Confidence Of His
Employer.

Cash registers became an institution
as a means Of compelling honesty
among employees handling money.
There was a time when their installa-
ton was taken as an affront by every
clerk concerned. but new generation
has accepted them as q matter OF
course. That they still have their use
in the original sense, however. was
demonstrated recently BY one employer
Ia grocer-who was telling his story
over the counter the other evening to
q belated customer.
Last summer" the grocer said. my
family was living down at the beach
and used to leave early In order
10 get down there for a late dinner. I
had a clerk that trusted to lock up
and put the money In the safe. Natu-
rally the cash register would show
in the morning what he had rung mp.
"For a few days I thought II was
working fine. He was a good clerk
and ! thought he was honest. Then
when I got to thinking about II ] de-
cided he was too-hOnest. For ten
days that register and the cash agreed
to a penny. Now that's better than !
could make II do myself. It amt nat
ural.
.aThen decided to try q little
scheme. Just before left rang up
$2.T6 on the register and put nothing
in the till. Next morning the cash and
the register agreed as usual That
was enough for me. ANY man who u
40 honest he will make up mistakes
out OF his pocket must have plenty
Of money to do II with.
EMO. he isn't working for me now
