THE GOLFER

The world is chiefly inhabited by
people who play golf and those who
don't. The number of those who don't
play is rapidly becoming less, because
il is less afflicting TO play yourself
than it is to have TO listen to golfers
tell about the wonderful shots they
have made.
Coli was impor.e from Scotland.
where it has long flourished, and
where the only other diversion is
going to kirk to hear sermons three
hours long. 1t was this comparison
that probably first led the Scotch to
think that golf was an amusement
Women were not designed by nature
to play golf, because when woman
puts on a negligee costume she has
a woeful and neglected look. She also
lacks fluency in handling the Ian
guage suitable to the occasion when
one bunges a play.
Golf is a science, the study of
lifetime, in which you may exhaust
yourself, but never your subject. 1t

in the future. This drive in behalf
of Debs has had in it no consideration
at an either for the merit Of the case
itself or for the implication of blab-
biness. of inefficiency, of want of
pith and purpose in our defensive in
stitutions which the pardon of defi
ant anti-patriot would Immediately set
up. We say that the consideration was
evidently present in the presidents
mind, and it is a good thing that II
was. If this sort Of irresponsible and
short sighted sentiment with nothing
but internationalism behind it, should
actually prevail, the authority of the
government and its courts would be
degraded by putting mere clamor
above them.
The president has done his proper
part in denying the application for
Debs' pardon. 1t Is perhaps unfortun-
ate at the same time that the SUI
preme court has found it necessary to
invalidate the trial under which an
other challenger of the laws, Victor
Berger, was convicted at Chicago.
Yet this invalidation is not a null
lification of the laws. The ruling OF
the court rests upon The immemorial
principle that whatever the accusa-
tion against a man may be, he should
have a fair trial If the supreme
court is convinced that, through the
animus or prejudice of the court be-
low, Berger and his co-defen1ants did
not have such a trial, it cannot do
otherwise than order a new trial. The
determination of their clse, at the
will rest upon the same evidence, and
presumably upon as sincere and eff
cient prosecution? as in the first
trial.

TUESDAY. FEBRUARY s, 1921
THOSE BLUE LAWS AGAIN

The Sunday blue law, like Ham
let's ghost, will not be downed. At
least so it seems, judging from the
manner in which suggestions are
made, calculated to lead to the enact
ment of legislation restraining all
manner and forms of innocent amuse-
ment on the Sabbath day.
Without wishing to say aught
against the Biblical Injunction to re-
member the Sabbath day and keep
ii holy, we can but think the straight
laced element are inclined to go to
extremes when its members seek to
saddle upon the shoulders of liberty
loving people laws which would be
more iron-clad, more stringent and
binding than ever were the laws Of
the Medes and Persians.
We venture the assertion, and defy
successful contradiction, that there
can be found nothing in innocent re-
creation on Sunday which will detract
AlOill ZIG SPhitde WtllaiC VI VIC iiAN'
and women who enjoy such recreation.
prompted by pure motives and actu'
ated by upright thoughts.
We cannot find anywhere in our
Bible aught which tells us that we
shall be better enabled to enter the
Kingdom of Heaven, through going
about with long and unsmiling faces
on the Sabbath day, and cheating,
wronglng and defrauding our fellow
men during the other six days Of the
week.
Neither can we find anything in
our Bible which says that the Sew
.enth day. devoted to rest, shall be
devoted TO rest bereft OF all its
pleasures through tortures self-inflict-
ed, nor that we shall serve the Lord
.on this particular day, by moaning
and groaning and gnashing our teeth
while we burden the air with hypo'
critical sighs and lamentations, our
minds In the meanwhile being filled
with schemings, working through our
brain cells like maggots feasting upon
some rotting carcass schemings as to
the best and surest way TO cheat
some fellow men on Monday in such
safe and sound manner that we
may escape castigation from the lash
OF the law.
without thought OF being IRE
.Ilgious, without desire to detract from
the proper observance OF the Sabbath
day, we feel that we may safely sug-
.gcst that q rigid observance OF the
laws throughout the weekdays, an
observance which will keep our feet
in the straight and narrow path OF
honesty and integrity and upright
dealing with our fellow men, VIII
bring US, when we pass into the great
beyond much nearer TO the gates OF
pearl than will any sanctimonious re-
turn TO snivelings and cantings on
the Sabbath day, followed by steal
.ings and cheatings during the follow
ang six dnys OF a COMPLETED week.

ONE great fault with many
~ cooks is to use too much
shortening in their cakes and pas
tries. This very often causes cakes
to become heavy and indigestible,
and pie crusts soggy and pasty.
All animal fats have this ten
dency. They contain more or less
water. This prevents the heat{rom
breaking up the starch granules
properly.
Mazola is free from all moisture,
as found in butter, lard and ordin-
ary cooking fats. 1t is absolutely
Ioo% pure vegetable fat.
Being already a fluid it does not
have to be melted. 1t makes the
tedious and timewasting Dreaming
in" process easier-which is SO an
noying when you use lard and other
old fashioned compounds.

Perfect Pie Crust Easily

You can make the most delicious
pie crust with Mazola--crisp, brown

every last morsel oft.
Cakes, bread and biscuits are
light and wholesome, for the starch
granules are thoroughly broken up.
This is one reason that cakes and
