decorated in Halloween color scheme.
and each was different from the rest. The
dinner was marked by weird songs anc

Every one was dressed either as witches

decorated with leaves. pumpkins and
cornstalks. The girls bobbed for apples

bread and marshmsilows.
The department of physical education
of the college has adopted new system
for deciding merit in gymnasium work
and Of awarding sweaters and SIS for
sweaters TO students.
Mrs. Robert Simpson says the system
is satisfactory as it gives all students an
opportunity to earn a sweater. The to-
tai number Of points one student can

The average Junior will make thirty-6ve

effort and much time may attain sixty.
This win permit the senior returning to
graduate to make the remaining early in

sweater nearly all year long. There will
be no inier-colleee basketball games. The
time will be spent in baseball, swimming

the swimming classes will give their an

high diving and in advanced swimming.
Both classes are doing splendidly and are
looking forward 10 more difficult feats
eagerly. Mrs. Simpson said yesterday.

POLITICAL PRATTLE
(By A. T. Edmonston.)

Jefferson City, Mo-, March 14.-The
"gop" party is badly and unevenly
divided into two camps over the ques-
ton of prohibition and the quarrel
bids fair to grow worse as the August
primary nears. The bitter fight made
on United States Senator Seldom p.
Spencer by the "wet" Republican ele-
ment in St. Louis has had the effect of
solidly cementing the "drys" of the
party out in rural Missouri for his re-
nomination. Fully sixty Republican
county conventions have Endorsed his
senatorial record, which includes his
"dry" vote for wartime prohibition
and the enabling act for national pro-
hibition which prevents the manufac-
ture of beer and all light wines for
the reason that any beverage contain
ing over one-half Of one per cent of
alcohol is legally defined as being in
toxicating. In the list of counties
which urge the denomination of SEN
ator Spencer, and the "gops" Of which,
by order of party bosses and dictatorG,
are supposed to support him next No
|vember, If he is on the ticket, war;
time dry vote and all other prohibit
|tion activities, are awfully "wet" Cole,
Usage, and Cane Girardeau counties.
Arthur M. Hyde, the dry Pro-
gressive leader, is running out in ru-
hal Missouri like creased lightning in
his race for the "gop' nomination for

our creation of Cuba into an independ-
ent republic instead of holding it as a
colony according to ancient custom.
Since then the spirit in which we have
dealt with our dependencies and what
has happened to them have been OBJ
served by the whole world. The abb
sence of the usual national greed, the
effort to better the condition of the
people, the transfer to them of self
government as rapidly as they were
educated up to a knowledge of what
government really is, and the ma
terial prosperity of the dependencies
for the people themselves, have all
made deep impress upon the people
of every country, even to the interior
of Asia. Climaxing all this was the
attitude of the United States toward
other nations in the declaration of our
purposes in entering the great world
struggle between autocracy and de-
mocracy.
1t is no wonder, then that this is
the only nation on the face of the
globe in which the common people of
all countries repose trust and whose
unselfish purposes with regard to di-
visions of territory and creation of
new governments are accepted as gen.
uine. The little peoples of the
world, those menaced by selfish and
aggrandizing neighbors and as well
by some who are not neighbors at all
in a geographical sense, look to us for
aid and some of them even implore US
with the Macedonian cry, "Come over
and help u.s." The best way we can
help without assuming new burdens
of government is to become member
Of the League Of Nations and use this
tremendous moral power we have Gre
ated by our just dealings to compel
the ravenous nations Of the earth to
cease their ravening, to strengthen the
weak and preserve to the feeble ma
tions their right to develop their own
national lives. 1t may seem long
distance from pineapples in Hawaii
to our duty to help stabilize the world
and protect democracy through the
League of Nations, but the connection
is clcar.--Globe Democrat.

GOVERNMENT WASTE OF PAPER

I While the statesmen at Washington
| formulate elaborate schemes to re-
! lieve the scarcity of news print paper
the government continues to waste a
vast amount of good paper stock.
1t has been stationary for the ogv-
eminent to print great quantities of
reports, big share Of which are new
er distributed.
Many Of these reports are at once
dumped by the recipients in junk bar
rels, and comparatively few of them
are read. If the government would
print brief summaries Of these reports,
leaving out the mountains of undigest-
ed figures, people would give them
closer attention. A 10-page summary
would be read by many people who
would never look inside 500-page
volume. And the amount of paper
Saved would be enormous.
A great deal of publicity matter is
sent out by the various departments
to newspapers and others, and the
bulk of it is wasted and never read or
printed. Before dumping heaps of
publicity matters on newspapers, the
government should make some effort
to find out whether il would be used or
not. Department officials should not
be permitted to throw bouquets at
themselves unless the publicity is
needed to secure public cooperation.
Too much paper is wasted in send
ing around the speeches of Congress
men, the majority of which were new
err delivered but are merely given per-
mission to print in the Congressional
Record. This is mostly propaganda
for reelection of Congressman, and is
not in the public interest.
The government could get more pub
lcity for less money, by discontinue
ing most of their circular matter, and
advertising in the newspapers the in
formation they need to bring before
the public.-Cape Girardeau Sun.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1920-03-19

Handlan, of his intentions. A tele-
phone call to Mr.. Handlan by the
Democrat News was the first inforfna-
ton Mr.. Handlan had of the matter.
Mr.. Chapman is receiving the hear
ty commentator of all the citizens of
Madison county for his firm stand
against the contemplated action of
Birmingham. And when Mr.. Birming-
ham comes, if he ever does, he will
find that we have courts yet in Mis-
souri, that will make it impossible for
one man, however exalted he may be
in his own estimation, to arbitrarily
destroy thousands of dollars worth
of property and spot of beauty cher
ished by thousands of people.
The foregoing, taken from last
weeks Democrat News of Frederick
town, indicates that the sheriff of
Madison proposes to take the duties
Of the State Game and Fish Warden
into his own hands, and has therefore
countermanded the decision Of Fish
and Game Warden Birmingham to
open Silver Dam for the passage of
lISu. W dIucll Dining nam hl.lhC q
personal trip to that dam several
months ago, and in accordance with
such inspection he decided that the
dam must be opened in order that the
FISH in the st. Francois river be given
square deal" and u better chance to
breed and propagate. He also found
that there was absolutely no chance
for fish to pass that dam, unless it
should be in case of flood waters in
that stream.
As to "the efforts to destroy the
dam being inspired by st. Francois
county interests" that is the extent Of
such inspiration. In his determination
to open such dam, Warden Birming-
ham is simply performing the duties
of his office, and time will tell wheth-
er the sheriff of Madison county or the
legally authorized State officer, will
have the last "say" in that matter.
