Home Life OF the Marines

No Marine ever seems to stay in
one place long enough to get rusty.
When he is not just off for for
eign ports or just coming homo
from service abroad, he is on one
of the big battleships which are
always on the move from one port
to another. Today he may be in
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. and the
next bound for France or Con-
stantinople, or goodness knows
where.
And when he's on duty in the
States he may be at any one of
number of interesting places
Quantico, the station just out of
Washington; the League Island
Navy Yard, at Philadelphia; the
Brooklyn Navy Yard. at New York;
or he may be at San Diego, in
sunny California, or Mare Island,

| A majority of the members of the
| CITY Council to be elected at the City
| Election to be held tomorrow but
while this is fact comparatively
| few persons appear to be taking
much interest in the election, this be-
| ing the result of the fact that there
| is a contest in but one of the wards,
the Fourth, in which Commissioner
Charles E. Brohawn is opposed by
| Mr.. Joseph H. Mayne. Both of the
candidates have been hustling around
quite little of late, in fact, every
since it became a settled fact that
they would be the opponents each
has been quietly working.
In the First Ward Earle w. Orem,
| is unopposed and the same is true IN
the Fifth Ward where Commission
er Irving B. Jackson, is the only
candidate.
One of the successful candidates
| in tomorrow election will be elect
ed Mayor and the general impression
exists at present that Mayor Orem
will be reelected, in fact, it is re-
, ported that no change is contemplate
, ed in any of the officers, although, OF
course, this cannot be verified at
this time.
That there were not more candi-
dates for the Commissionerships at
this election was rather a surprise
to most persons as the compensation
has been so increased to make the
position rather an attractive one. the
members receiving SIS per meeting
and it being possible to make the Of
flee pay about $3.50 a year.
There was considerable talk of OPP
position to Mayor Orem, the names
of Messrs. j. Lockwood Shepherd
and Harry F. Brannock being prom
inently used in this connection but
when the time for filing came,
neither of these gentlemen entered
the contest. There was also some dis
cussion of one or more persons who
contemplated opposing Commissioner
Jackson, but in case also no one en-
! tered the lists, SO that both of these
| gentlemen have the honor and dis
| tinction of being unopposed.
In view of the fact that there are
no contests in two of the wards and
no election in two others it seems
quite prbable that there will be a
very light vote in tomorrow's cleo
ton. The contest in the one ward,
The Fourth, is expected, however, to
bring out large vote in that ward
and both sides are claiming the vic
lory.

Ihlgratory-Bnd Law Upheld
In Supreme Court Decision

Sportsmen who merit the title in
ne United States have been much in
crested in the protection of the
migrating laws employed by the var
Gus States have worked havoc with
our most valuable game and migra-
DRY birds, so the migratory-blrd
reaty and the Lacey Acts have had
he support of every nature lover IN
mis- country and in Canada.
On April 10, 1920, the Supreme
court of the United States rendered
/ decision upholding the constitu-
ionality of the treaty act. In a suit
,rought by the State of Missouri
against a Federal game warden the
Supreme Court held that the Federal
,ame laws were enforced in State
whose game laws confiicted with the
.nigratory-bird treaty act.
The court defined the situation In
The following paragraph taken from
the opinion:
Here a national interest of very
nearly the first magnitude is involV-
ed. 1t can be protected only by ma
tional action in concert with that OF
another power. The subject matter
is only transitorily within the State
and has no permanent habitat there
in. But for the treaty and the
statue there soon might be no birds
for any powers to deal with. We
see nothing in the Constitution that
compels the Government to sit by
while a food supply is cut off and the
protectors of our forests and our
crops are destroyed. 1t is not sufti-
cient to rely upon the States. The
reliance is vain, and were it other
wise the question is whether the
/ United States is forbidden to act. We
are of opinion that the treaty and
| statute must be upheld"

! H. c. |.

All of us have talked so much and
scolded so much about the high cost
of living that we have come TO be-
stances. Prices are high, indeed,
but the country is rolling in a pros
perity almost too good to be true.
The men one meets on the street
are wearing silk shirts and silk socks
the women and girls are wearing silk
stockings and dresses made, of silk
fabrics; the hotels are crowded with
people who have come to town to
spend their money; the trains are
damned with people going some
where to be separated from their
bank rolls, and nobody, anywhere,
seems to have the slightest regard for
the price.
One need not go back TO ancient
history to find a time when men in
ragged clothing lined up to await
their turn for, a free bowl of soup
and a piece of bread. The girls
wore simple white dresses then.
They couldn't afford any other kind.
Men wore gray cotton socks-rough
woven affairs that sold at five cents
a pair and stood a wonderful amount
of darning. Little Willie's pants
were made from Dads old ones, and
Dad didn't discard his until the shiny
seat had worn through and left him
an open covenant openly arrived at.
Underwear for the children was
made from -four sacks, and a shoe
| wasn't discarded until it had worn
out two half soles. Shoppers asked
the price and even haggled little
and the merchant would cut the
{ price bit rather than lose a sale. Al
that time a man who couldn't AFFORD
more than four cylinders didn't think
himself poor and downtrodden anC
those who had jobs were grateful
for their good fortune and did very
little talking about their rights.
1t is written of the British Tonm!
that he grouches continually wher
there is nothing to kick about, bu
cheers up and enjoys himself wher
everything is going dead wrong
America is much like that We are
all complaining because prosperit!
has made up little drunk. If eacf
of us had million, we would doubt
less whine for two.
