WHERE THANKS ARE FEW.

We've thought over it a good bit,
and we've about come to the conclu-
sion that there's no profession on
earth in which the worker gets less
appreciation and more knocks and
abuse than in the newspaper game.
And We have also reached the con-
clusion that the reason all newspaper
editors go to heaven when they die is
they get so much of the other place
while they're on earth.
No matter how nobly the editor
boosts Tor the development of his
town and community, no matter how
Loyalty he nay support a friend in
politics CT eXtol the virtues of a citi-
zen of the town, no matter how loudly
he sings the praises of the town belle
about to be wed or how gently he lays
a wreath of pretty words on the grave
of a departed citizen, he seldom hears
those magic words Thank you" A
few times in life does he catch a
whisper of that changing sentiment,
We'll done"
But let him make a slip in his pa
per-let him say Bill Jones did some
thing he didn't do or Mrs. Brown said
something she didn't say, and every
body in town takes a whack at him.
This is true in the newspaper game
everywhere in the world, and being a
part of the world P%leasantville is no
exception. But with all the knocks,
with all the lack of thanks and little
cheering words that could be said but
are left forgotten, the editor drives
right on boosting, and he always will.
He was born to help the other fellow
and, like the birds, learned early in
life that if no one else feeds him,
heaven may. And maybe that's why
the Lord keeps so many editors on
earth-to keep the balance of the
world from s%ouring or turning stale.

HARDING FOR PRESIDENT;
COOLIDGE VIcE-PREslOENT

The Republican National Convention
concluded its labors last Saturday at
Chicago, by nominating on the tenth
ballot U. S.. Senator Warren G.. Hard
ing, of Ohio, for President, and on the
first ballot Governor Calvin Coolidge,
of Massachusetts, for Vice-President.
The Convention had struggled along
until the seventh ballot with little
change, when Harding, who had stood
fourth in the list, began to show gains,
which steadily increased until on the
tenth ballot there was a general change
to his support and he received 6741a
votes (493 being necessary for a NOM
ination). Senator Harding is n of
the leaders in the Senate, a very able
man, who began life under very unfa-
vorable circumstances, and through
sheer determination and ability work
ed his way up. He is the editor and
proprietor of the Marion Daily Star,
one of the leading papers of the State,
noted for its ability and progressive
; ness. In the Senate he is noted for
being a strong, reliable, conservative
sueap. who wilibring to the White
Hanss "a kane and sober, yet pro-
gressfve adnli Fation- He will work
with Congress 8Sd bring back the gov
eminent to its normal and regular
basis.
The nominations were completed by
Governor Coolidge receiving the same
vote on the first ballot. The Governor
had received support for the Presiden-
cy, and was very favorably regarded by
many for that position. His handling
of the police strike in Boston made
him many admirers who would have
been only too glad to support him for
the first place. He will add much
strength to the ticket.
The Convention was harmonious
throughout its sessions, and while un-
derneath there may have been some
soreness from disappointment, indica-
lions are hat all will soon be forgot
ten and that the party will put up a
united front in November, thus presag-
ing success for the ticket.

always a little TO drink. After the

GERMS ON POSTAGE STAMPS
Physicians Have Found Microbes Of
Disease on Almost Every speei-
men They Examined.

Drs. J. Diner and q. Horstman
bought postage stamps ut so different
places and tested them for the mi
crObes OF disease. They report 10
the Medical Times that every stamp
was Infected. and II appeared to make
no difference whether they were from
a drawer or cash register or exposed
on a desk.
Among the germs they found were
such deadly ones as colon bacllli.
stnphylococci, streptOcOccl. pneumo-
coccl and diphtheria bacllli. The edi-
tor of American Medicine comments
that II postage stamps were as grave
source Of Infection as these facts
might seem TO Indicate. 4 very large
part OF the population would be suffer
ing from Infection, AS almost every
body Is In the habit OF licking stamps.
The fact is that an examination OF the
mouths. noses and throats Of almost
all Of US will reaveal the presence Of
some or all OF these germs at any
time.
However, licking postage stamps Is
dirty habit and one that is quite
easy 10 acquire.
