One of the cheering features of
the election is the somewhat pointed
permit granted by the voters to the
lady Demosthenes of Yakima to retire
to private life. As we understand
the matter, this has been the desire of
the lady for some time, but a stern
adherence to the spirit of self-sacri-
fee, and an unyielding devotion to
duty have kept her on the firing line

exhausted: Such a situation is man.

remedy the matter by giving the lady
an indefinite vacation and releasing
her from further cares and response

ARMIsTICE DAY

* HIS is Arn,istice Day. =
~ Two years ago the battle guns
in the greatest war the world has ever
known were silenced.
Today people, not only in this state
this nation, but in the larger part OF
the civilized world are pausing from
their labors and celebrating the an.
niversary of the great wars passing
celebrating in sadness for the ruin
and wreck of war, in sober pride for
its triumphs and victories, and with
thanksgiving for the worlds deliver
ance.
In this country wherever men and
women congregate today, chief among
them will be the boys of the Ameri-
can Legion, that virile, manful orga-
nization which has come to us as one
of the big assets of the war.
As celebrants, the American Leg
ion will not be found passively posed
to receive the plaudits of the assemb-
led crowds, but active, dominant. They
will be found planning, leading, di--
recting, and energizing the days ac-
tivities, furnishing alike the inspira-
ton and the motive power. Theirs not
only the honors but the responsible
tiles as well.
Every day the editor of this paper
finds new reasons for being thankful
for the American Legion. Every COM
munitY which has an American Legion
post has a distinct asset, and the
smaller the community the .greater in
proportion is the asset. We view
the American Legion as one of the
most effective weapons we have
against the killing influences of
growing Observation-Disclosures in
citizenship, Indifference in social and
civic matters.
Nobody to do anything" nobody
to step out and take the initiative
the habit of passing the buck, is one
of the most serious handicaps under
which any community can labor. AS
an organization the American Legion
does things. It does not pass the
buck. It assumes responsibility and
goes ahead. It has a membership
that is young, enthusiastic, energetic,
one that recognizes the necessity for
leadership and the value of coopera-
ton. It has awakened the interest,

* HE THIRD PARTY placed its
~ case before the people of this
state.
The program Of that party was ex-
amined carefully; each plank of its
platform was studied carefully. IF
there was Misrepresentation on the
part of the opponents of the program,
there was fully as much misrepresen-
tation in its favor.
The men in charge of the work of
putting over the program were weigh
ed in the balance.
"Found Wanting" was the verdict.
Especially SO, do we believe, was the
verdict on the men. Bridges, France,
Vanderveer, Elmer Smith and others
we could name, are no men to trust
with job of real reform in this state.
There are things in this state that
ought to be remedied and will be rem
edied, but not by men of this type.

labor, adornmeit did you notice the
number of Red Cross buttons? Sur
prising, wasn't it? And there hasn't
been Red Cross button given out
for a year.
Already the Cox buttons have dis
appeared. In few days the Harding
and the farmer-labor labels will have
disappeared, but the Red Crosses will
still be in evidence.
Why is it? The Red Cross is one
button that any American citizen can
wear and be in perfect agreement with
his neighbors and his fellow citizens.
1t is the symbol of an organization,
the membershi of which is universal.
The Red Cross during the war was
worn and respected alike by the ally
and enemy and its little emblem comes
nearer symbolizing the brotherhood of
all mankind than anything we know
of.
The Red Cross knows nor recogniz-
es no creed, no partisanship, no race,
no color, no nationality. It admins
tiers to all alike. It belongs to the
world. 1t is not annual, or spasmodic.
1t is permanent, perpetual. It func-
tions in peace as we'll as in war. To
be member of it is not only q duty
but splendid privilege.

tribute to the splendid American
