JUST A REVIVAL-WILL IT
ALWAYS BE THUS?

Nothing like a big plump campaign
fund to stir up the ire OF liberals.
And their indignation over these eX-
asperating features of every political
campaign is indeed essential. The
case is very similar in other things
when money gives much money it us
ualIy expects returns and gets them,
directly or indirectly.
Senator Johnson, on the Republican
side, is a no more staunch advocate
Of less graft and greater squareness,
unaffected by the subtle influence OF
billions, than is that trustworthy re-
former, William Jennings Bryan,
whom the Democrats can feel happy
to have in the limelight. The two have
much in common; it is a certainty that
both of these men are beyond the con-
troll of predatory interests. Their
records demonstrate their common
sincerely. Senator Johnson fought
and won a great battle against cor
porations in California, even though
his own father took the stump against
him. Californians have not forsaken
him. YOU will notice. Mr.. Bryan in
1912 forced the nomination of Wood
row Wilson over Champ Clark at the
Democratic convention because he
would accept no candidate who needed
New York votes to win, these votes
being under the control of the Tam
many machine. These two groups will
be powerful forces in the two respec-
tive conventions. Even if they are
not successful they will do much to
keep the Republican and Democratic
parties away from old fashioned con
yentionality, out of the rut of irres-
ponsive self-interest.
The Wood campaign fund seems to
fiation; it is well above 100000 and
no one will have any apparent diff
Guilty, after the various reports dissem-
mated from Washington. in estimating
that it may be one or two millions.
Governor Lowden hasn't a backward
fund. On the Democratic side Attorney
General Palmer seems to have the
most effective backing; there are ex-
cellent explanations. doubtless, if one
would study that candidate. 1t is an
old story that Wall Street likes to
have its fingers on feasible candidates
in both parties.
Compare General Woods lavish
campaign with Senator Johnson's per-
sOnal appeal The senator has made
some astonishing, unexpected inroads
on the generals fields. What mightn't
he do if he had few millions behind
him?
The whole discussion is just a repe-
tition of what has occurred every four
years. Since the public became aware
of ''mOnopolies" in the SOS, since it
demanded trust legislation in the COS,
since the muck raking'' period of the
early part of the century, campaign
funds have always been attacked by
the minority Liberals are averse to
the use of fortunes in political cam
paignS, especially when the money
comes from the pockets of those who
do not give money away for the plea
sure of giving. There is yet not as
Surance that money will not buy
government: it is no less certain than
it was twenty years ago that govern
ment cannot DE overwhelmed by
money 1t is no longer fanatical TO
predict that the day is dawning when
government is to be cleaner and bet
ter, when it will reflect more clearly
that improved morality that legislation
is trying to create among the people
of the nation.

'tIf the oil in your engine will con- zeal, or thicken excessively, at 315 de- grees above zere, you should hardly expect it to splash. and flow freely at 12cdegrees above Zero," said Mr. R. J. Harlan, Special Agent of the Stan- dard Oil Company yesterday: :. .. 1ssYet some motorists wonder why it takes so long to get the engine toprun frseiy these cold mornings. a The cold engine, not getting sufficient lubri- cation, is subject to excessive and damaging friction. The oil pump can not scirculatet congealeda oil, so there will be an insufficient supply thrown upon the cylinder walls-until the struggling motor has warmed up the oil SO it will flow more freely.
 "A Zero Cold Test oil yAews freely at all temperatures down to zero, that's why it is called Zero Cold Test Oil. Zerolene Medium tor 'Zerolene Light for oFrds) is a Zero Cold Test Oil. It is correctly refined from se- lected California crude oil and flows freely and splashes properly at all temperatures down to Zero. This Zero Cold Test Oil gives the same correct fabrication to your engine dur ing these cold days that you are used to getting during the summer months.

ARTIFICIAL LIMBS GREATLY IMPROVED OVER THOSE OF

As a result of war injuries suffer
 ed by our forces Hoverseas, it is esti- mated that the number of major aYn- Iputations Computations of an arm or leg or both) was about $500. One of the functions of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance at Washington is to supply artificial limbs to- those dis abled in the service. To date, 1866 artificial legs and, 704 artificial arms have been thus supplied. As rapidly as possible the remaining disabled men have been thus supplied As rapidly as possible the remaining dis abled men will be fitted. ."~ %f, i"% !, Artificial limbs of the peg type were used by the ancient Egyptians and the Romans. The first % jointed artificial lek was invented in 1853 by Count De Beaufort; a French gallant, who found the awkwardiy protruding peg leg hindrance to polite drawing room intercourse In his own peg leg he put hinge held in place by g short iron 'pim When the Count wish ed to sit down he pulled the pin and bent the leg; wishing to rise, :" he strengthened out the hinge and rein serted the pin. 'NH 70
 The manufacture of artificial limbs received a wonderful impetus during the American, Civil WassSmanys ina+ provenents in the product resulting. Tine artificial limbs are not made of ''cork" rthey used, to be oilnovm as stcork legs" from the, faetathat sso many of them were made in Cork, Ireland. They arermadel of wood, hol- lowed outb overa which o4rawhide, is shr,nk to ,prevent the weodf from crankingo or splitting. Satisfactory jeints and forms of qnoysnent make the. present style of artificial legs not a hardship to wear ,lad ;with practice they are easy. to ttnegotiate", so that remarkable running, and leaping stunts ape possible. It has been found \ by, the .Rnreap of War Risk Insurance that it, is more dificult to find. and fit g satisfactory axtificial hand, the type most generally ih,, use being fin Nished with! g hook. instead of 3 hand.
 Both training and patience are requir- ed in learning how to use the ,artifi- cial. hands with accuracy and facility.

pose to go out to the poor girl who fell by
the wayside in answer to the Establishments
of someone unworthy the name of man, but it
is dangerous to carry that sympathy, that
pity, to such an extent that you may become
self-hypnotized into the belief that all women
who walk the street Of Easy Virtue are to
be pitied. and their transgressions condoned
We ask you, therefore, as you sit beneath
sound of your pastors voice, today, to pro-
pound to yourselves the question as to wheth-
er or not you may, through too much SYM
pathy and condonement become an instru-
ment in bringing about an increase of the sins
of the world, in place of aiding in their elm
ination.
And after having asked yourselves such
question, then ask yourselves, and answer in
all honesty, the question, ''Is it not time to
stop slobbering and spreading the salve?"
Do this, and while you may have pity and
tears for all the poor misguided ones who
have fallen from Virtues Temple, at the same
time you will not be found guilty of con-
doning wrong and placing premium upon
immortality.

SURE THERE is, DIDN'T YOU SEE HIM?

Yes, Christmas has come and gone the
way of all those Christmases which have
marked the passing of so many centuries,
year by year. since good old Santa Claus first
started in with his annual visits to all the
good little boys and girls Of this good old
world
And now, you kiddies-you little chaps
whose stockings were filled to repletion with
toys and candies and fruits, know more surely
than ever before that Santa Claus is real
mana very old man, two thousands years
old, almost-but an awfully good old man, at
that.
We venture the assertion ,and trust that
you will bear us out in it, that more than
one good little boy of Ardmore, and more
than one good little Ardmore girl saw Old
Santa Claus Friday night, Christmas eve.
We know that some of you stayed awake
long enough to hear the jingle of his sleigh
bells and Thunder and Blxen pranced over
the streets and up the side of your house and
across the roof, even if you did not see the
old man, himself, as he came down the CHM
ney with a little round belly which shook
when he laughed, like bowl full of jelly"
And we are going to ask you, each good
little boy and each better little girl, because
the girls are always the best, to keep on be-
ing good, all through the long year to come.
Do this and we will bet you new pair of
roller skates, that you will see Old Santa
Claus again next Christmas eve.
