 culties which beset the lives of girls and women everywhere. In meeting the postwar needs of women the Young Women's Christian Association stands aS an instrument of service, tested and proven by war. and organ. lzed to meet the manifold problems of peace.

 American women are asking how they may share in the worlds recon. struction. They can do so by enlisting the support of their communities for this World Service Program, which will insure to the world . healthier and bet. ter womanhood.

HEATING WITHOUT LOOKING

Look before you leap
 This good ol dadvice has been hand cd down to Us for generations, and has prevented the financial downfall of many a man who was just lowering around the brink
 But now it has lost it's charm-has been forgotten-kicked into rhe dis cal ard-at least insofar as our large cities are concerned.
 Spending money today is wild and all consuming mania. Getting it may be easy but making it fly is easier.
 It is this insane craving for throw ing money to the birds that keeps the financial vultures and profiteers firm ly seated in the saddle of robberdom.
 Men and women growl to each other over the mounting cost of living, and then go right out and buy the most useless and expensive articles they can find.
 If a woman pays $500 for sealskin coat her neighbor must have a better one if it costs $1.OOO
 If man pays $l for necktie his friends all think him tightwad They prefer to pay $3 to $5.
 If merchant marks his goods down at reasonable price they are passed by as too cheap for consideration.
 The purchaser locke for a higher price, and naturally the dealer gets wise and soaks him.
 What fool wouldn't?
 Profits range anywhere from 100 to 300 to 400 per cent. But that's noth- ing. The higher the price the quicker they are sold
 People buy indiscriminately on cred it and trust to the Lord to show them way to pay.
 This wild orgy of extravagance and reckless squandering of money is found principally in the cities, but it's degenerating influence is extending i rapidly to the rural districts.
 The fever is a veritable plague, and is extending it's blighting shadow throughout the land.
 There appears to be but little sanity in eNistence-praetieal no thought of the morrow
 IL iS spend. spend spend and the more oulandi>h the price the more in sane they are to get il.

URGE LEGISLATION
TO COMPEL JURYMEN
TO SPEAK ENGLISH
(By international News service)

(By International News Service)
BOULDER, Colo.-A movement
has been launched here for the pass
age of law at the next session of
the Colorado legislature compelling
jurymen in the state to be able to
speak the English language.
The movement was inaugurated by
Post No. 16, American Legion, OF
Walsenburg, at a meeting here pre-
liminary to the opening of the an
nual state convention of the Ameri-
can Legion. Delegates from several
of the southern Colorado posts urged
support of the proposed law, and it
is expected that the state convention
of the Legion will take action upon
it during their two-day session.
One delegate from a Legion post
in Huerfano county, in the southern
part Of the state, declared that there
are usually three or four jurymen
presiding in court cases in his coun-
ty that are unable to speak the Eng
fish language, necessitating inter

Misinterpretation of a single word
often results in the miscarriage of
justice, he said.

PERSIAN LAMB PELTS
BRING HIGH PRICES
(By International News Service)

(By International News Service)
CALGARY, Alta.-Dr John Pat
rick, whose experiment with Kara
.kule sheep on his ranch near here
has attracted wide attention, has
been offered as high as $50 apiece
for his Alberta Persian lamb pelts
this year.
DR.. Patrick, in addition to five
families of pure-bred Karakules, has
1900 grades resulting from crosses
between Karakules, Cotswolds and
Leicesters. The cross with the Eng
lish breeds makes the grades much
larger than the Karakule. These
sheep shear from eight and one-half
to fifteen pounds and twenty-five,
pounds in exceptional cases. Their
wool is sold in New York to be used
in the manufacture of Persian rugs
and fetches so per cent higher
price than native wool. DR.. Pat
rick's grades are being gradually
bred up to Karakule type.
The breeding Of Karakule sheep it
is believed will develop into quite
san extensive industry in western
Canada. The sheep are being bred
already on several ranches. F. E.
Dawley, inspector of the United
States bureau Of husbandry for New
York, has forty-five head on ranch
north of Calgary and recently locat-
ed land in the Kamloops district are
similar to those of the native habi-
tat Of the sheep in the Bokhara dis
trict of Turkestan.
The fur known as the Astrakhan
or Karakule is the wool of lambs
killed when three days old. 1t then
has a crisp curl which it maintains
afterwards in the most humid at
mosphere. If the animal Is permit
ted to live the wool gradually be-
comes straight, losing all vestige of
curliness at maturity.

SIMPLE AND POSSIBLE.

ssThe greatest lesson to learn Is to seek al
ways the public welfare, = said Governor Cool
idge in one Of his speeches, and he coupled TINS
with practical admonition that an excellent
way to contribute 10 public welfare Is to do
tie days work honestly, fairly and with due
regard to others Here is model advice for all
good citizens who want to right things indus
trially and politically. Everyone knows that
good and intelligent people who disagree widely
III theory generally come quickly to agreement
about what ought to be done IN specific matters
Of common concern. It is reasonable to say
that if all our good citizens were ito seek al
WAYS the public welfare and ''do the days
work. with duty to public matters included
in it. most of our present squabbling, delays and
indecisions would end Search for new laws
to make labor unnecessary, to make honesty
compulsory, to secure fair deal would stop
because conduct would make them unnecessary
Here is simple and possible social and political
reform which would secure all the benefits the
socialists and radicals clamor for while keeping
all the good heritage we have from the past
All that is needed is an attitude of mind. 1t
may be argued that this may not be got by adj
vice. But neither can it be got by making laws

ito do away with the evils that have
arisen through the actual working OF
the present statute. The word ''re-
peal was used in this plank only
latter the most deliberate considera-
Ition and suggestions to substitute the
word revise"
In his address as temporary chair
man, the Hon. H. W. Byers freely adj
mitted that the primary law which he
had strongly advocated before its
enactment had failed. His sugges.
ition, however, was for amendment
rather than repeal. The members Of
the committee on resolutions thought
otherwise, and in this they were sus-
tanned by the delegates assembled
The law is faulty and unruly. Any
attempts at revision by amendment
would more than likely merely com.
plicate it. The Hawk-Eye believes
that new primary law or perhaps a
legalized caucus law can and will be
framed to safeguard to all voters
their inalienable rights to be heard in
the selection of candidates and the
passage of measures. But this law
should be so framed that it will recog-
nize the great principle of represen-
tation rather than direct action that
has made this nation sound from the
first and enduring where other so
called republics and democracys have
woefuIly failed.

other day proposing to place labor embargo
on the Chamber of Commerce Of the United
States by compelling all labor representatives to
resign from that organization and all organ

the support of the Gompers groups and Mat

it was defeated by great majority when Presi-

floor against it and strongly protested that

And nope or fear. to age from youth,

And earth is heaven to those who trust
While sunless skies shroud those who grope
