vXTHEN Senator Lawrence Y. Sher-
w man of Illinois was practicing
law in Macomb. H., he lived for a
time at a hotel there that was en-
deavoring to maintain certain stand
ards of class and tone. Summer came,
with its openworlS shirtwaists, humid
ity, resort folders and sleeping-under-
blanket liars The dining room in
the hotel got the monday sun, and
Sherman's table was in particularly
hot part of the room. He found him
self thoroughly uncomfortable with his
coat on, and SO he removed it, one
noon, and hung it over the back of
his chair.
The shirt he thus exposed may not
have been as natty as those shown
on young men who ride in motorboats

Rush of Bachelors to Europe for Wives

Furthermore, single European wom-

gathered from reliable sources indicate.
"a majority of the immigrants to
the United States are women" CANT
netti said. Immigrants totaled 605,ODO
during the year. Women greatly out
number the men in England, France,
Italy and in nearly all European couii-
tries. This is partly result of the
war. After the armistice thousands
of English women sailed to Australia
and other colonies, numbers of them

husbands. Some had become engaged
to Australian soldiers on leave in Eng

DARING AND DOUBTING

The worlds moral today is:
There amt no use doin' nuthin'
fog nobody that won't do nuthin'
Tor you"
When Sis Hopkins gave express,
sion to this phrase over Which
people laughed for more than 20
years, she also told us what is
wrong with the world today. Every
body is afraid they are going to do
something for nothing-something
they will not get back a hundred
fold the moment it is done.
We must get out of this fear of
doing too much if people are go
ing to get enough food to eat and
clothes to wear. There may not
always be much use o. doing
things for nothing, but wisdom
consists of doing something for
ourselves. And those are wise
who, by giving service to others,
thereby help themselves.

There are but two men who
are helping on the county farm"
said Mr.. Cowles, "the others are
too feeble. The farm is in fine
shape; it never was better.
1--WE are digging our own pota-
toes already and using them on
the table. The corn is fine, al
though not large enough yet to
eat. Peas, beans and beets are
very plentiful and fine and we
have them all the time, and yes
terday we picked the first cab
bage."
