ART AND PEOPLE.

When we say ''art'' we think first of all of
museums millionaire collectors and experts.
America s great riches have made it possible to
bring to our country the world s treasures of
art But not one-tenth of one per cent of the
people enjoy this art, nor are even interested
in it. The art gallery may be in some respects
out of place in democracy, especially new
and young democracy like own. We re-
create the outlines of the dodo bird and the di-
nosaurus, for these animals can never be on
earth again Is it not confession that the art
We house in galleries is also something that the
world will never achieve again?
The ministry of the beautiful ought to be to
all the people, It ought to be evident in the ex-
terror and interior Of our dwelling places. It
ought to be part of our industrial system and
our commercial life. Beauty and good taste
ought to be reflected in our amusements, our
theaters and motion picture houses, churches,
libraries and public buildings Of all sorts. When
we can get away from the packing box style Of
farm house with its execrahle stable and barn
nearby or actually attached as in some local.
ties, and build something useful and beautiful
in the ural circuit we shall be expressing the
art Of the people. When transform our vii
lages from rows of shoe box houses to lovely
gardens set with beautiful homes we shall be

the various matters Of publicity
which we have had, and that we
hereby express our hearty appre
citation of the spirit of helpful
ness to the causes which we rep
resent, by the newspapers, maya
zines and periodicals of the state.
In these trying times of print paper
shortage, curtailment of space am
the vast amount Of "handout' litera

affairs is greatly appreciated.
And so we thought you would be
glad to know that the $4,000 mem
bers Of the order in Iowa, represented
by their various delegates at the re
cent state convention, are a unit In
saying Thanks"
With best wishes and assuring YOU
of my personal appreciation of your
many courtesies,

Donnellson Review: Mr.. Rogers,
of the Mt. Pleasant News, who is ap-
parently wet nurse to the Kopp con-
gressional campaign, in recent arti-
Gle endeavors to cast aspersions on
Fred S. Holsteen's war record, be-
cause the government discovered
that owing to Freds legal abilities he

ington than in the field, and refers
to him as holding down one Of those
chair jobs, which was not Of his
own choosing.
Slurs oil this kind coming from a
newspaper that was yellow inside
during the war, and which the loyal
people of Mt. Pleasant painted yellow
outside, will not carry conviction to
the minds of the ex-service boys, for
whose especial benefit it was
printed.

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
EN- VOYAGE.

EN- VOTRGE-
Whichever way the wind doth blow
Some heart is glad to have it so;
Then blow it east or blow it west
The wind that blows, that wind is best
Ny little craft sails not alone;
A thousand fleets from every zone
Are out upon a thousand seas;
And what for me were favorIng breeze
Might dash another, with the shock
OF doom, upon some hidden rock
And so l do not dare to pray
For winds TO watt me on my way,
But leave it to Higher Will
To stay or speed me; trusting still
That all is Well, and sure that He
Who launched my bark will sail with me
Through storm and calm, and will not fail,
Whatever oreezes may prevail,
To land me, every peril past,
Within his Sheltering haven at last
Then whatsoever wind doth blow,
My heart is glad to have it so;
And blow it east blow it west,
The wind that blows, that wind is best.

much rather see a man like him

Smith Brookhart, who we know by
reputation to be as radical as any
socialist who ever ran for office.
He lives just few miles from

Deems, the candidate for governor
lives up near Burlington, and he is

pearance in print, but knowing the
danger of class legislation, could
not help saying something.
Every republican who has a drop
of loyalty left in him for the good
old party should go to the polls next
Monday and see that the democrats
do not select our republican candi-
dates for us, as they are threatening
to do-for if they do that, they must
want to defeat them in November.

AN IMPRACTICAL LEAGUE.

Another war between Greece on the one side
and Bulgaria and Turkey on the other is fore
Swallowed by recent events in the Balkans. The
Bulgars are incensed at the action of the SUI
preme council in giving Thrace to Greece, and
threaten reprisals. All of which presents a
pretty pickle to the league of nations. 1t is
ludicrous to think that the league council can
review the actions of the supreme council of pre-
miers in making the award, but if the award is
a cause for war it becomes incumbent upon
the league to take cognizance of it. In theory
the league is more powerful than any other
body in the world, and can set aside the action
of any member state or group of states that
threatens world peace but practically the coun-
Gil if premiers is in control and would not con-
sent for moment to the exercise by the league
Of nations Of authority bestowed upon it by the
covenant.
