THE LEAGUE A
PROPOSITION

The best argument in favor of the
league of nations was presented by a
prominent Democrat of this state in
a conversation during which he en-
deavored to get a staunch Republican
to change his views.
The P.D. said: Come on, be a good
sport. We made money off of Europe
and enriched ourselves before our en-
try of the war. Europe stood the
brunt of the loss. Let's be good fell
lows, join the league of nations and
help poor Europe on her feet. It's a
sporting proposition"
The SIR. replied: "All right, we'll
accept it as a sporting proposition.
Never let it be said that we're not
good sports. When England is sport
enough to give autonomy to Ireland,
Persia and Egypt, when Japan is
sport enough to %relinquish her claim
to the Fiume, and France is sport
enough to relinquish the Saar Valley
to Germany. we'll be sport enough to
enter the league and not until then"
Three cheen for the SIR

WHAT A
CENTER MEANS

A writer in the st. Paul Farmer
suggests the following as the activ-
tiles that can be carried on in the
community center of a country town:
Debates on questions of the day.
Literary programs given by women's
clubs or schools. Lectures ON current
topics. Community suppers. Basket
ball and gymnastics, ETC., for the
young crowd. Home talent plays re-
hearsed and given. Club meetings.
Library and reading room facilities.
Community dances held. Community
canning by women. General meeting
place for getting acquainted.
Does anyone have any question as
to the prosperity and advance of a
town where such lines of activity are
carried on? Do you think people
would quickly leave such a town?
Would not the young folks have such
a good time, hat they would never
get the restless desire for city life?
These plans are simple and easily
organized. All that is NEEDED in any
community is a suitable building,
which we have. and enough spirit of
cooperation to start it. Most of these
activities would run themselves when
onc started, by the people who are
interested in the several lines of ac-
tivity.

DISCUSSING
RELIGION

Now that the war is over many OF
the big city dailies have more space
than news. so quite a sprinkling of
them recently have been discussing
religion. We are glad to note this,
as no one we know of needs a few
hard jolts of real religion more than
our metropolitan contemporaries.
They do not arrive anywhere in
particular on those subjects, but
founder around a good deal, splash
the soup of theology on to the table
cloth. and stir up more or less thought
and that is about all any of us can
do.
The old heaven, located off some
where up in the air, with pearly gates,
golden streets and peopled by winged
shades strumming ~eternally on
stringed instruments, is not accepted
any more, other than a fanciful
stretch of a vivid imagination, any
more than is the literal hell down in
III DONCio VI IL Cdltu, WACiC
tailed devils jab the inhabitants with
pitchforks, feed EN- on boiling oil
and waste good coal on riff-raff.
But in cutting away from certain
old theories and dogmas n should
not lose sight of the basic and funda-
mental facts, which are easy to I'M
derstand and plain enough to see if
one will but look and think. Those
facts are the great Master Power yer
all and the great truth of Immortality.
Heaven is probably all around,
everywhere, and so is hell. Each of
us gets some kind of both as we go
along, according to the kind of lives
we lead. AS to how much of either
we are to get in the hereafter nobody
knows and no one ever comes back
to tell us about it, so we have to
guess at that a good deal and trust
to the mercy and goodness of that
great Master Power.
But the one who cannot figure out
the truths of an immortal existence
of some kind is very poor at figures,
as the evidences are all around us by
the millions.

TONOPAH'S LAST STORM
WAS NOT THE WORST

The storm which visited Tonopah
a few days ago is described from
| some source as being the worst that
the camp ever experienced, says the
Carson Appeal. 1t was. perhaps, from
a damage standpoint, but in the mat
ter of thrills it cannot be compared
with the electrical storm which visited
the desert town on the night of Au-
gust 10, 1904.
Residents of Tonopah IN that ocea-
sion got some shocks and impressions
they'll never forget as long as life
lasts, and during the duration of the
pyrotechnics, for about an hour, none
knew but what the next minute might
SIS last. The only description that
can be given of it is that two great
armies, one stationed on Mount
Brougher, the other on Mount eddie,
were engaged in a great artillery
battle, with the shafts of flame issu-
ing from big guns and the kissing of
bullets as they passed owe the town.
1t was on this occasion that Sena-
tor and Mrs. Key Pittman got the
picture of lightning striking and
entering a house, which has been de-
clared by scientists to be one of the
most wonderful lightning pictures
ever recorded.

AMERICA FOR AMERICANS
HARDING AND COOLIDGE
COX SPEECH OF
ACCEPTANCE

Governor James NJ. Cox of Ohio has
been officially advised that be has
been nominated to represent the DEM
ocratic party in it's endeavor to re-
capture the Presidential chair. The
occasion had the peculiar effect upon
the governor of riling him, causing
him to growl and show his teeth and
vent his spleen Upon the opinion of
the majority of voters of this country,
but using as his objective Senator
Harding, the Republican standard
bearer.
Cox ices in H%arding's promise of
an early peace but one thing-a sep
arate peace with Germany. 1t is re-
grettable that a Presidential candi-
date has such a narrow vision. What
Harding means is an AMERICAN
peace with the allies %concurring,
rather than an European product in
which the United States is forced to
u%nderwrite and finance with it's blood
and the whims of irrecon-
cilable nations.
Cox gives thanks to the Almighty
that he can take up the standard of
democracy unfettered by promises.
This, in view of his recent interview
with President Wilson, during which
they came to an agreement upon the
league of nations. In view of the
governors REORGANIZATION express
sions, and the fact that he has come
to an agreement with the President
upon necessary interpretations that
would be assuring to many of our citi-
zens," it seems hat he has received
the imperial permission to cross some
ITS" and dot a few us" hat he may
be enabled to catch a few of the mild
Republican reservationists' votes.
What did he have to promise for that
concession? But even the level
headed Democrats who realize the
danger of the, Wilson league demand
something more definite in the way of
reassurances
Cox says the famous CD Article X
of the covenant exhales the purity of
the Monroe Doctrine. If that is so,
then we can promise to recognize the
leagues authority over Europe upon
their recognition of our right to pro-
tect the sovereignty of the western
hemisphere.
Cox admits that one of the first
things to be done is the repeal of the
war taxes. Well. we still have a
Democratic administration, so why
are they not repealed?
Governor Cox, unwittingly in his
speech. has merely pointed out the
faults and shortcomings of the pres
ent administration with which he
claims to be in hearty accord. Not a
very strong argument in favor of his
election.
He says that neither labor nor capt.
tai should at any time take action
that would put in jeopardy the public
welfare, but he is silent as to just how
he will prevent them from doing so.
Perhaps he will emulate the farmer
who devotes an hour a day in silence,
wishing for rain.
His reference to prohibition is
merely a promise to uphold the law,
as though he could do anything other
