We note with pleasure that the Kentucky Senate
urges the National Senate to ratiy the Peace Treaty
without amendment reservation other than those
which may fairly and reasonably interpret the terms
thereof Senators Of both parties heartily endorse this
resolution.
When you have a conviction that thing ought to
be done and finally you go and do it, isn't it surprising
how many good sensible people you find who come to
your support Davy Crocketts advice is good today;
This rule all when am dead Be you're right then
goahead" On the other hand it often happens that folks
do not have convictions OF their own, but allow others
to think for them Consequently, some OF the un-Amer
lean Propaganda that is afoat today poisons some
minds that would have been immune had they been
active before

CLEAN UP AND KEEP CLEAN
Much More Than Mere Comfort Is In,
volved In Having Community
Free From Dirt.
Seal

The greatest effort In the history OF
cleanliness Is Onl
For cleanliness has a history. Its
influence can be traced down the ages.
Those races that were clean were
those races that were the masters.
The Athenians. with their baths and
beautiful homes, conquered the Per
SLAMS. with their unkempt boards and
dirty skins. The Romans. with their
aqueducts. their BARRIERS. their gar
dens. beat back the barbarians with
their goat skins and greasy fingers.
Louis XVI was the most dainty mon
arch France ever had and one OF the
mightiest. Filth kept the Panama
canal from being built years before IL
finally was. Bolshevism fiourished
when the dirty and ignorant gained
control In Russia.
Real people, the wise. the leaders In
progress, always have fought for
cleanliness. At times II has been
sporadic fight. a skirmish. A clean
man was handicapped by a neighbOr
who let his premises run wild. But
cooperation has been brought TO play
at last.
This year, In the United States
alone. 1000 villages. towns and cities
are campaigning for cleanliness and
health. They are not doing so for
day OF a week, but in a continuous
campaign. In steady pressure.
Tin cans. flies. refuse. dirt. waste
paper, unsightly buildings. implanted
surfaces are taboo. The drive is on.
II has been estimated that 10000
600 men. women and children In the
United States are annually Interested
In and working on clean up and paint
up activities. II Is an army Of magnlfi-
cent purpose and OF immense posslbili-
ties II Is bound 10 win.

The long-continued strained re-
lations between the President and
the Senate is likely TO call atten-
ton to the most vital defect in our
system of government. namely, the
separation between the executive
and tht legislative departments.
Secretary Baker has already sug-
gested the necessity of change by
giving the Cabinet members seats
in the House and Senate. President
Wilson has, for many years, favored
some change toward that end.

CASE OF THE COLD FEET
THIEF WHO STOLE SOCKS
ABANDONED THEM
This Chilly Weather May Have
Prompted the Robbery At
Beauford

Prompted no doubt by the sudden
chill in the weather to the realization
Of the approach of winter and cold
feet, some thief gained entrance to
the general store Of o. Mullen at
Reauford last night by forcing one of
the rear windows. He stold seventy
five pairs of mems socks and three
dozen pairs of leather mittens. When
Mr.. Mullen discovered that the store
had been entered this morning he
notified Sheriff Anton Osten and that
officer made an investigation. While
this investigation was in progress,
Otto II. Bartsch, living a short dis
lance north of Good Thunder, was en-
gagged in hauling in corn fodder He
was at a considerable loss to under
stand the finding Of socks and mittens
hidden under one Of the shocks. He
accordingly called up the sheriff.
office in this city, and Mrs. Osten got
word to her husbnd at Beaufort.
Recovered BY Mullen.
The Sheriff and Mr.. Mullen went
out and got the plumber, which Mr..
Mullen identified as his property.
The case looks like one Of cold feet
from any angle it is taken, for the
thief in the first place does not seem
to have had the nerve to keep the
swag, and now he is out the socks.
