Farce.

In December recurs one OF the extraordi-
narily inefficient happenings Of the political
machinery Of this government.
1t is "the don't-care-a damn session" OF
congress.
Meeting after the November elections, this
l.oldover session Of congress is composed of
reelected and defeated members. The defeated
members "dont-care- adam" about the public
interest; the reelected members are so far
away from another election that they also
'dont-care-a-damn."
Into these d. c. a. d. sessions Of congress are
crowded vast deal Of the vicious legislation
that congress enacts. A congested calendar
due to the short sessions combined with an
attitude Of don't careness on the part Of the
lame ducks" who constitute such a consider
able part Of the congress, and the consequence
is that extravaganza, pork and political job
berry of all kinds runs riot
The people, who have made their mandate
known in November. must wait until this hold
over session is concluded before their will is
felt. To make matters worse, unless q special
session Of congress is called after March 4 by
the new president, the congress elected in No
vember does not take office until year from
the December after the election!

Great Britain today paid honor to some

and warriors.
The body Of the soldier was selected at
random from q cemetery in Ypres, where it
waE buried among other fallen heroes who
because of destruction of any marks by which
they could be known, were laid away in un-
marked graves.
Greater homage could not have been paid
Ut the obseQuies Of king. The funeral was a
feature Of the observance Of Armistice day.
Some mother who gave her boy to king and
country was made prouder today for her sacri-
nee but It would be unfair to all mothers
were the government to have chosen any par
tieular soldier for elevation to resting place
beside those distinguished personages sleeping
in Westminster. So that every mother whose
hoy fell At Ypres and was buried among the
unknown may hope that the soldier at rest
among the kings may be her boy. It was q
pretty tribute to Tommy Atkins by q grateful
\ govetnment. AZ

The hard thing for the average
youth is to get started in life.
After he has settled the big ques-
ton Of the business in. which he is
to invest himself, the next prob
lem is to kick off.
1t is not always easy. Here is
where we seek a friend with pull.
1t is great thing to be that kind
Of friend. Some of the best deeds
one gets to his credit on the books

things done in helping young fell

these things declare dividends when
dividends are most needed.
But there is something better
than either a push or pull. 1t is
a self-starter. ~
Heredity is something; it is what
one gets from his ancestors. En-

one gets from his surroundings.
But there is a more valuable asset
than either ancestors or circum-

That is where the self-starter is
