A time will come when we as a
people will emerge from our pres
ent condition of indifference to
consequences. 1t may be year,
or two, or five, or more, and
great changes may take place be-
fore we are again normally
moving people. But we Ameri-
cans are not class to be kept
forever keyed up in turmoil OF
excitement In some way or 9th
er we will find our level and re-
sumo the wholesome existence we
enjoyed before the world was set
ablaze by the fires of war. 1t is a
hope which buoys us up and rec
onciles us to the idiosyncracies of
a people apparently gone mad in

That close observers report but

That every ton Of sea water is

That even Cupid is feeling the

That the handsomest nobleman

If you pass a man on the street
and he favors you with grow

mach pains him. or whether it is

No, the Lord did not slip a cog,
but some one else did. His ma

The sunshine Of happiness was
probably foreign to him in his
childhood days. Instead Of kind
words he may have received
harshness or neglect, for such ma
lures, while possibly hereditary
to an extent, are often the direct
result Of early environment. A
smile is better than a scowl, and
if you keep this fact in mind you
will be doing your own child an
inestimable service, one which
will do much toward shaping his

The Lord has provided that
SUNDAY shall be a day of rest
and worship. We make it one OF
rest, though many of us overlook
the worship But we might vary
the routine little with advan-
tage to ourselves and the approx
al of the Lord. We might spend
Sunday afternoon in walking
over the town. We might note
the condition of the homes and
property Of other people, and
then each strive to have our own
property just little cleaner, and
more sanitary, and more attrac-
tive than that of others. OF
course we couldn't each one have
the best, but The Improvement
would be so wonderful and so far
reaching it would make of this
town much more attractive
place. just as a diversion, ii for
no other reason. take a Sunday
afternoon off and use your legs =
also your eyes.

There are pretty ways to con-
tend for a principle or privilege
or an objective. 1t is not surprise
ing when children, inexperienced,
take the little" means of gain
ing point, but in grown-up men
the broader minded, honorable
way is expected, and when not
employed the attainment of the
object is made more remote.

When a man is doing his level
best to build up the community
in which you live, it is only fail
for you to do your level best to
help him. Truly, the builder may
make profit from the enter.
prises he is fostering. He should
this is only fair, too; for surely
the laborer is worthy of his hire.
And the fact that he is making
profit, or may make profit,
Should not deter others from
helping him as long as he is CIV
ing to the community enterprises
essential to its growth. There is
a fair and broad-minded way OF
looking at this thing, and those
towns and cities whose people get
this grasp Of it are the ones that
are going ahead. just check over
those you know about and you
will find this to be fact. A man
does not put an Improvement in
a town in order to hurt that town.
Each Of us cannot be the big
builder, but each of us can help.

THE OLD HOME PAPER.

The editor of The Mail is we'll aware
of the fact that many former residents
of Winslow are now living In distant
cities or towns remote from the fire
sides and the scenes of their youth
and however much they may have
prospered there is nothing that sc
cheers their hearts as letter from
the loved, ones at the old homestead
and the more news from the old home
the greater the Joy.
Every absent son or daughter, every
native of the old town rejoices to
receive a letter from friends at home
He wants to know all about them
but. as 1t is impossible to write all the
news In letter, the editor Of The
Mail suggests that a subscription tc
the .old home paper g will solve the
problem in the most satisfactory man
ner.
Every resident of Winslow or vicini-
ty, having relatives or friends at
distance should gladden. their hearts
by sending them the home paper. 1t
will carry the home news that cannot
be written in letter, and the money
you spend for the subscription will
return to you an hundred fold in the

Wilson VIII Not Run Again.

One of the PROBABILITIES of the near

pare itself with reasonable certainty,
Is formal word from President Wilson
which will clarity the atmosphere of
indefniteness which has been hang

1t will be official elimination of him

in Washington, and there Is doubt
that statement Of the kind would
have been forthcoming on the occa-
sion, but for the fact that it would
have necessitated the abandonment by
the president Of the treaty to whatevsr
fate the Republicans may have h9en
pleased to consign it. President Will

been safely delivered. II. he had an

statement. would have been taken as
indication of abandonment of his
Treaty fight. But, with final disposi-
ton of the treaty, whether or not In
exact accord with the form for which
the president has contended, there
will be no obstacle in the way of q
statement of his intentions In regard
to the nomination. He would be free
to speak the word he has unquestion-
ably been anxious to give to the peo-
pie. His decision has been long made
up and that he has been waiting the
opportune time for making it public
property is a matter not only Of be
lief among democrats who are in his
confidence, but it might be said that
it is q matter Of knowledge. The peo-
pie will then know that for months
past President Wilson has entertained
no ambition for another term. 1t is
is even probable that he will make
statement in such way as to leave
no hope; that even if his party asso-
ciates and the people should want to
force another nomination upon him
they would be obliged to abandon
that hope-Charlotte Observer.

While other peoples have been in

months later it was a revelation to me
Of the energetic quality Of the Bel
gian character to see what had been
accomplished. And the farmers, too:
instead of sitting around and repining

days before the war made every bit

February Anniversaries.

I
1t is not too early to note on this
first day of February that we cele-
brate the birthdays Of Washington
and Lincoln during this month
Lincoln's anniversary on the 18th and
that of George Washington on the
22nd-
Never has there been a time in our
history when the lives and the charac-
| ters of these two men should be
brought so vividly before the people Of
this country. Washington was pa
itriot, as was Lincoln. He stood for
law and order, as did Lincoln. He re-
garded the achievement Of liberty as
worth far more than life, just as
Lincoln-the kindliest of men-pre-
lferred the sacrifice of hundreds of
Thousands lives-millions, If there
should be need-to the destruction of
the nation Washington had founded
a government Of the people, for the
people and by the people.
Washington came of an aristocratic
family and died the richest citizen of
Of his time. But his riches did not in
tefere with his love of his country and
devotion to the welfare OF his fellow
men.
Lincoln was born in cabin. He
was the poorest of the poor, and by all
Of the rules Of the game should never
have been eonspicuously successful
But he was a man of sorrows and
acquainted with grief, from the time
he came into the world until his tragic
taking of. His life has been a con-
stant inspiration to the youth of the
country, and must until the end OF
time.
Washington had to deal with dis
orderly elements In his time, and to
deal with them firmly, uncompromis-
ing. He recognized that this is e
world of law and that order must be
maintained for the protection OF
society against the mob spirit, against
rebellion.
Lincoln was man of vision, but he
was not visionary. Like Washing
ton he recognized that the human
must be governed by laws. Speaking
at Springfield, H., he used the follow
ing words:
Il hope I am over wary; but II I am
not, there is even now something of
evil omen amongst US. / mean the in
creasing disreg ard for law prevades
the country-the growing disposition
to substitute the wild and furious pas
sions in lieu of the sober judgments
of the courts and the worst than
savage mobs for the executive minis
ters Of Justice. !.
1.-THE answer is simple. Let every
American, every lover OF liberty. every
well-wfsher to his posterity, swear by
blood Of the Revolution never to vio-
late In. the least particular the laws of
the country. and never to tolerate
their violation by others. Let
reverence for the law be breathed by
every American mother to the lfsping
babe that Drattles on her lap: let 1t be
taught in the schools. in seminaries.
and in colleges: let 1t be written in
primers, in spelling books, and in al
manacs; let it be preached from the
pulpits, proclaimed in legislative
balls, and enforced in courts Of justice
And, In short, let it become the politi-
cal religion of the nation: and let the
old and young, the rich and the poor
the grave and the gay Of all sexes and
tongues and colors and conditions
sacrifice INCREASINGLY upon its affairs. -
