its allotted part In our scheme of gov
eminent. 1t has been totally impossi-
BILE for the Wilson type of mind to con-
ceive that 1t is not infallible, and to
realize that the views of the people
can be more nearly expressed through
the composite expression of their lead
ers than through the utterances of a
single individual. His has been one
man government, uninfiuenced by the
opinions ofaccepted authorities.
Every act of the Seate, and of Con-
gress. necessarily is a compromise
product--a composite of the though of
the members who compose the major
ity of that body 1t is not too much to
say that an act of Importance never
passes the Senate that is entirely ac-
ceptable TO any Senator. Every Sena-
tor has surrendered some of his per-
sonal preferences in order that the act
may become law, and in that surren-
der he had admitted his own fallibility
and recognized that the voice of the
many is more likely correct than his
own individual opinion.
THAT is the school in which Sena-
tor Harding's conception of popular
government has been formed, and to
those tenets he will hold the executive
department once he has take ncontrol.

Alfred E. Smith, who is likely to re-
ceive the vote of the New York dele
cation when the first ballot is cast for
the presidential nomination at the San
Francisco convention. is ow in the sec
year of his two-year term as governor
o fthe Empire State. Governor Smith
is politically a product of Tammany
Hall and could rely upon receiving the
full support of that organization SO
long as there might appear a chance
for his nomination. Imbued with a
natural taste for politics. he began his
career at an early age as a minor en-
ployee of the municipal government in
New York. In this position he display
ed qualities that recommended him to
the favor of the Tammy organization
and thereafter his promotion was rap
id. At 80 he was elected to the legis-
lature, where he remained until 1915.
Through the influence fthe organi-
zation he was made Speaker of the
Assembly. Next he fell into line for
the lucrative Office of sherig of New
York county, and two years ago he was
nominated and elected to the COVER
norship.

His Cabinet will be composed of men
of recognized authority in the prob
lens of their particular department,
selected to act as real aids to the Pres
ident in the performance of his duties,
rather than to furnish plausible sup
port for executive opinions already
made known. President Harding will
personify the policies adopted by the
Republican party as whole and en-
bodied in its national platform, and in
the carrying out of those policies the
country will witness the closest CO.
operation with his official advisers and

TRAINED LEGISLATOR
FOR THE WHITE HOUSE.

Washington. June 21. - The Repub-
lican Publicity Association, through its
President. Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr.,
today gave out the following statement
from its Washington headquarters:
with the election of Warren G.
Harding to the Presidency, govern
ment by theory and intuition will give
place to government by experienced
experts, based on proved principles Of
sound national management. Instead
of a professor from an institution of
learning seeking to apply to the Fed
eral government the dogmas of col
lege curriculum we shall have a
trained legislator and executive who
will conform his administration to the
lessons he has learned during term
in the United States Senate preceded
by two years as lieutenant governor of
his state and four years as member
of the Ohio Senate.
when Senator Harding enters the
White House on March 4th next he
will have completed six years service
as Senator from his State=-six years
of apprenticeship for the work of Fed
eral administrator AS never before
in the history of the country, the past
seven years have demonstrated how
necessary it is that the Chief Execu-
tive shall have had that previous ac-
quaintance with the legislative branch
of the Government indispensable to a
proper appreciation of his relations to
1t. Mr.. Wilson's complete failure to
comprehend the point of view of Con-
gress, and his refusal to concede to
the duly elected representatives of the
people the part the Constitution de-
creed that they shall play in national
affairs havebee n responsible for the
almost constant friction that has ex-
listed between them. The cost to the
people of that lack of coordination can
never be expressed in dollars and
cents, but it has been enormous; and.
| in addition, national prestige has suf-
fered setback that will require the
most careful attention from a Repub-
lican administration to repair.
Not only has Senator Harding
! learned in the school of experience of
the relations between the Executive
and lagie lativa branches that rnucbt no
maintained if our government is TO
continue to express the popular will
as our forefathers provided in the
Constitution, but he has learned to
respect the opinions of his fellow SEN
ators and of others chosen by the peo-
pie to represent their views. 1t is
here, again, that the Wilson admins
tration has signally failed to perform

SOCCER TEAMS
 BEGIN WORKOUTS

Regular workouts in Soccer, the girdiron game for girls, started last week with 35 candidates out for posi- tions on the two teams which are be- ing organized by the soccer coach Miss Elizabeth Jacks Since such a large number of the candidates are showing good form, it may be neces- cary to organize three teams instead of the initially planned two, it was said yesterday. The squad is now be- ing put through stiff workouts daily, and the coach expects to have two Well-trained machines ready for reg ular exhibition games during the first part of November.
 Soccer is just being introduced in- to Normal School athletic circles, all though it has been in vogue in all the larger universities of the country for several years. The game is played in regular football formation on a field similar to that used in the rougher masculine sport The essential diff ference between soccer and football is 1hat III soccer there IS no carrying or the ball in the hands, it being entire ly process of kicking and running. Quick mental action and athletic alert ness are requisites of being sue cessful player, and practice in the game is worth much to those who take part.
 A regular soccer field will be made on vacant lots across the street north of the campus, and development of the soccer teams is being watched with interest by the entire student body.

FIRST AID TRAINING
 TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching Hundreds of Thousands Life-
 Saving Methods.

The purpose of instruction in First Aid to the injured offered by the Amer ican Red Cross is to train men and women to administer First Aid treat ment promptly and intelligently when emergencies demand 1t. First Aid treatment Is not intended to take the place of physicians service. A sur geon should always be summoned as a precautionary measure where there is an injury of any consequence, but when one cannot be secured a few min- utes' delay may mean fatality. In such case person trained in First Aid Is invaluable not only to the in- dividuaL but through him to the con- munity In which he lives.
 There Is perhaps no way of ascer- taining the number of deaths or seri- ous disablements which result from lack of proper safeguards or prompt emergency treatment It is safe to as- sert they number thousands daily There can be no doubt that the appli- cation of First Aid methods to each case would immeasurably tighten the country's toll of suffering and death.
 The dissemination of First Aid train ing and information has already pro- duced farreachlng and beneficial in- fiuence In the prevention of accidents on railroads, in mines and in great in- dustrial concerns.
 The benefit of widespread knowl- edge of First Aid in the event of great disaster, such as a train wreck, an explosion, an earthquike, etc, Is obvious. Laymen who have had First Aid training can render efficient as- sistance. Many lives may depend upon such emergency care.
 Red Cross First Aid work includes CD the formation and conduct, through Red Cross chapters, of classes for in- struction in accident prevention and First Aid to the injured among men and women in all communities and in every industry; (2) the Introduction of courses of instruction in high schools and colleges.
 The Red Cross Is prepared to supply First Aid books and equipment at req sonable prices.
 Every person in this country able to do so should, In his own interest, re- ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction. Information about the course and in- struction classes may be had at the nearest chapter headquarters.
