 We quote John Hyder who we say with all our heart has the goods. MT. Hyder does not specialize on good salesmanship believing that his method of presenting good merchan- disc is sufficient to warrant the patronage of the intelligent public.
 His stock is of standard American make and everything he has is marked | in plain figures so that the shopper IS 'I familiar with the prices as the ship l owners.
 Mir. Hyder credits his success in
 business on the four points he has emphasized:

 ITO be convinced of the power and
 economic use of a motor car one
 only needs to become familiar with the Chevrolet. The car represents un- usual value but to know the full ex- tent of it's real worth you must know the efficiency Of it's service. its capa- bilities for practical time and labor saving utility. Bert O. Brown is the distributor for the Chevrolet. the loca- ton being s16 East Washington street. HAPPINESS Is said to be based on the home and its influence. It is then more than a matter of moment to decide upon the home and to endeayor to have one in which the owner can take justifiable pride. A home built of hollow tile would warrant such an attitude-fof in addition to the pride of possession would be the certain knowledge that you have provided those for whom you care with an ideal residence. Hollow tile Is particularly acceptable in this climate and as 8 matter of economy its claim can be advanced. Hollow tile has had many imitators but no equivalent substitute has been found. An example of the tile is in the new quarters of Vernon l.. Clark, 343 North First avenue. Mir. Clark handles the tile in this state and will be delighted to tell anyone interested of the advantages and economy of hollow tile construction. | X LITTLE thought at Thanksgiving AA time can be gracefully expressed in box of Quinby's Los Angeles Chocolate Shop candies from the Busy 1 Drug Store.

THE TIPPING EVIL

pended on the liberality or generosity of
 the patrons of the great monopoly for his
 living. Now it has spread to the hotels,
 to the barber shops and elsewhere, until 1t is not only an imposition, but nuisance.
 Laws have been enacted against it, but generally have failed because of the pe- culiar nature of the payment, but thls
 does not detract from the fact that it is wrong.
 That is why we hope the barbers in New York win a strike they have com menced. their demand being a wage on which they can live without having to depend on gratuities from customers. The boss barber has not lessened the charges to the customer, and by implica- tion requests the patron of his shop not only to pay for whatever service he re- ceives at the established rates, but to contribute further to the wages of the man employed. This is wrong, and no amount of sophistry can make it right.
 No denial is made of ehe right of an indi-
 vidual to give a tip if he so desires, but the workman should not be left dependent
 on this for his pay while his employer
 exacts full rates for the service.

AN ARTIST IN TAILS

waylaid the hero. "A domiciliary visit proved that he had on hand 1000 rat tails fashioned of string and rubber"
 Here we have case, not of rascally de- ception, but of genius in want of guide. Peer of the Pied Piper of IIameln town, how the young tail-weaver would shine if but trained in the technics of law or poli- ties! What strategist he would make in war. What Foch in finance. He has the high gift of intelligence, which is not good memory, quick perception, or ready ,associatiyeness, but all these com bined and lit up with imagination in way that gives their happy possessor the magic sesame to work-a-day tangles and to closed caves of treasure.
 It was great to conceive the f0ea Of blowing rats into smithereens, yet leaving their tails intact to meet the demands of an eminently practical situation. Any body might have thought of those un- romantic animals of Bo Peep renown. who after having been lost. came pror saically home, bringing their tails behind them. But only a creative mind, only an artist, could have brought hone the tails that never had a rat before them.

From the Omaha Bee.
 GT1HE habit of tipping for personal
 service is an old one,, brought to
 America from abroad, where it had long been an attribute of royalty, irni- tated by the lesser of the noble" breed. and aped by the snobs who imagined themselves confirmed in their self-as- stunned superiority by the process. In the original assertion of divine" power by the monarch all property was under his disposal, and the subject was rich or poor as his sovereign willed. The petty despot, the feudal lord, baron or count, held similarly the veal of his immedi- ate followers, and it was a general and not entirely reprehensible practice to crook the pregnant hinges of the knee that thrift might follow fawning"
 In America the custom has grown from mere bestowal of 1argess or a grateful expression of satisfaction and appreeia- tion for service suitably rendered. IL has become rather burdensome imposition on all who patronize places where tips may be exacted. In the beginning it was on the Pullman car that one felt the trust more frequently; the underpaid porter de-

WHERE DO THEY GET TT.
From the Louisville courier-Journal

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
 Where do they get their money?
 The New York Sun is boasdng that German-languag newspapers in the United States are practically a unit in supporting Senator Harding.
 Of course, in many instances. this support is the expression of revenge, not against Woodrow Wilson the nom- inal object of the assault, but against the government of the United States, which was but the instrument of the American people in joining the war on Germany.
 But the Sun does still more boasting. It giorifies the fact that many German language newspapers which ''wero starved out during the war are reap bearing and are supporting senatot Harding.
 Who is supporting them?
 Where do they get their money?
 The Senate Investigating committee might ask these questions of Will H. Hays and other members of commit- tees bent on electing Senator Harding at the sacrifice of national respect and of the covenant of the League of Na- tions.

COLONEL HOUSE ILLUMINATING

essay than those who sat at the Yer sailles conference, let all who watched the course of events at Washington of late months aver Of course, the Wilson batter will say that the league is one- man affair, but not so Colonel House. To the contrary, he declares:
 Tt is as nearly composite product as ever was formulated. It was found at Paris nearly all the drafts brought there by representatives, of the different na- tons had much the same Fundamentals. The one new idea was contributed by General Shuts and haa to do with the administration of the German colonies and other backward countries"
 Inasnfuch as the colonel was constantly on the job in Paris, his testimony is val uable Moreover, shrewder observer of affairs this country has seldom evolved. He tells us that the league is doing busi- ness, that it is succeeding in spite of Americas remissness, and that it will continue to succeed. This does not mean that the league can get along as well without us as with us; but it does mean that the United States needs the -ague quite as much as the league needs America

Immigration Hordes Press At Ellis Island Again

Y the present rate of immigra- AN ton the labor shortage seems to be passing into history. Foreign CTS are pouring through Ellis Island as in ure-war times. It is becoming difficult to house them. As many as three thousand at time are de- tained for inspection. The record is approaching that of million year.
 Not only are they arriving by the thousands. but tens of thousands more are on the waiting list in Europe pending the ability of ship room. It is flood that calls for earnest con- sideration. It presents problem that should have been whipped into better shape than Congress has done. The next Congress will be busy with it.
 Women of the country, who have been doing their own household work, will not object to the statistical side of the immigration figures which show that women newcomers are in the ma jority Many of them are fiances of soldiers, but many others come along to seek livelihood in the country of good wages.
 There is only one really wise rule. Canada employs that. It admits the fit individuals who proves his fit ness according to adequate tests. Canada does not let in droves of con- tract labor resulting, in time, in the formation of alien communities.
 It is the alien community in Amer ica that has caused disaffection of one kind and another. It is in these alien communities that the agitator can play on ignorance, prejudice and ancestral hates.

 | N 7ICE PRESIDENT CALVIN COOL w IDGE will not feel out of place in V the Senate, even though he should show up for his inauguration in his Mur- ! ray Crane shoes and his suit of the yint- age of 1918. The sartorial standard of Congress isn't as high as it used to be, and the New Englander will find himself
 among colleagues who no longer cherish the traditions of bygone days.
 Time was when to describe man as looking like congressman was to fix his status as dandy, but the congressman of today is not proclaimed by his clothes.

In the Fifty eighth Congress, Philadelphia was repre- scented by two congressman who were all ways correctly attired- Robert Adams and Gen. Edward De V.
