CLoGGED COURTS,

A, the country develops. as conditions shange and new legislation becomes ef- ,ective it is plainly evident that the bus mess Of the courts of the country Is at least if not more than keeping pace herewith And 1t matters not much in what court the investigation is made there is invariably found a long list of 1ntried cases, some of which have been waiting for years and others which it will be years before they are reached.
 Net all of this can be attributed to tlie courts. There are those influences at work for delay in the belief that such will operate to their advantage and yet there should be those facilities at hand which will not make 1t possible for it tc be charged that the courts are so crowd ed with cases that they cannot take care of them.
 It is for the overcoming of the clog ged condition in the federal courts termed by Attorney General paughertS 10 be "slarning'' that he has recon nended legislation that would make possible the appointment of IS fedora iudges-at-large. The importance of hay ing sufhcient judges to take care of tht busnsss cannot fail to be appreciated and when St is shown that there wer'

ley Lips.
 Icy lips are thin lips.
 At the center, this thinness indicates the exact opposite of full lips. That is to say. it indicates small capacity for conjugal love and little desire for it.
 But thin lips indicate a good bit more than this, where the thinness extends the entire width of the lips.
 They tell a story Of self-eontrol and self-repression. They are the lips of the zealet who for an ideal depriyes himself readily of creature comforts of every de- scription, possibly in some measure be- cause of his desire for creature comforts is not so great as that of the average person,
 Icy-lipped people are generally precise and accurate in their actions and in their judgments, providing you find other indi- cations which tell of the necessary men. tai ability to go with this.
 Another of their virtues is that they are industrious, canny and have a ten deney toward extreme and exact econo. mics in whatever they undertake. AS efficiency expe%" they have just the right Temperament. You may look to them for a high sense of justice, suitability. good will, and fsl a certain amount of sympathy. But their affections. eonjugal or otherwise. are not likely to become dominant motives ir l their lives.

ROUT THE RAT.

While everyone may not. have reason just st the present time for giving at tentioR to the advice which is put out by the United States public health ser vice concerning the rat and the fight that should be made against it there are times when most families have reason to do their part in eradicatjng this de- structive pest, so that the advice .E worth wide publicity for the sake of arousing general participation in de- creasing the number of rats.
 The public health service urges that each household should protect itself and rout the rat by starving him through the rat-proof receptaeles for food. and covered metal garbage cans.
 By depriving him of breeding places through the abolition of planked yard! and passaseways.
 By refuling him admission to the comfort of your buildings, through rat proof construction. and screened base ment openings.
 By killing him at every opportunity By demanding city anti-rat ordinance and state anti-rat laws
 Many cities have undertaken crusade l against the rat because the health con ditions have become such a menace tha 1 it was absolutely necessary. Tn protect 1 ing themselves against bubonic plague D

AIRCRAFT AND wARsH1ps.

Much was demonstrated by the bomb ing of the German warships off the Vir- ginia coast this summer. It was a test which showed the increased importance that much be attached to the airplane in all future wars and war preparations and 1t was clearly proved that airplanes can car, the bombs and can place them under proper conditions so that they will cause the destruction of powerful craft.
 Tn connection herewith the report of the joint board of the army and navy is decidedly interesting. This board does not minimize the importance of the dem- Snstration but neither does it believe that the capital ship has been rendered obsolete by the airplane. The board does not, however, take the position that the aircraft will not in time make it lnadvisabe to build any more battle ships. The observation of the board is to the effect that while the flying ma chimes have been able to sink big ships ,it has been shown that the airplanes with their big bombs cannot as yet be operated from slips at sea. so that they must of necessity be regarded as Q coast defense The board does not hold that future developments will not make such operations impossible hut until thai time comes the capital ships cannot be elimiaated
 The board likewise observes that thf eamplexity of uava! warfare has beer increased by the airpianes and it wai Go Fe eznected that it would recommend that greater attention be giyfp to tht alr service. to the development of more powerful anti aircraft guns and to th, value Of the bombing airplane as ar sdditpnsl coast defense.
 No demonstration in the effectiveness lf the aircraft in naval activities hal been made which has done more to em rhasize it's importance than the bombing tests Through the results greater at teRtioB must he siven to them and whii it has not been shown that they rende tAs battleship useless or helpless it ha heea shown That the chances of doing S have been greatly increased. The air craft cannot he sidetracked. It is a vi tai war machine.

141,ooo eases of the federal court dock cts the first of July or a gain of over 22,000 in the past twelve months it is clearly shown that, regardless of the claim that the prohibition law has been responsible for tais something should be done to provide the necessary court machinery and to get speedy decision in the cases brought to the courts whether it is prohibition or something else that causes it. The fact that the business exists is reason enough for re- moving such handicaps as stand in the way of disposing of it. The judges ar the present time are unable to do what is expected of them. With cases piling up faster than they can be heard ana decided it is the natural thing that con- sideration should be given to such an addition to the members of the federal court bench as will bring relief and pro- vide a means for quicker administra- ton of justice, both as to civil and criminal matters

RESTRAINING THE MOB.

Fortunately the instances are few and far between when mobs in this part of the country undertake to administer the law according to their feelings as the result of some outrage. It is per- haps only natural that feeling should run high as the result of the crime that was committed in the Massachusetts town of Wreatham, Certainly there can be no sympathy for the accused. They deserve the limit of punishment which is due them and there is no reason to believe but what they will get it. It should come, however, under the estab- ished provisions of the law and the peo- pie of that vicinity have no reason to believe otherwise than that it will be invoked in full measure.
 Restraint has been accomplished ir that community but not without evil dence on the part of the authorities that they would be no toleration of lawless- ness. That the appeal Of the governor against an insane outburst that would bring blot upon the state has had it's effect cannot be questioned. Such in
 iuences serve to bring people to q prop CT realizatio of the situation and to calm the hot headed. Massachusetts laws are carefully administered. the au- thorities have acted promptly and there are reasons to believe the courts will do likewise. The punishment will be in accord with the laws of tse common wealth which means stronger position for law and order,
 Tn dealing with mebs which seem beat upon taking the law into their own hands, the fearless defense of jaiis through the use of firearms should be
 expected There are times, however, when the mob becomes overwhelming and it is not improbable that such sit
 nations will be controlled in the future
 through the use of hand thrown bombs
 that will release gas that viii bring 3 1 copious flow of tears and cause more es | less choking and sickness, without caus- l ing fatalities. This is one of the de- | velopments of the war that has been tried out with much success as test
 and it ought to have good effect wherever there Is q tendency to mol l demonstrations, especially where ap- ] peals to common sense and respect fel the law have iitle effect

Russia appears to be impressed by the seriousness of the conditions which exist within it's borders. It apparently reeognfzes that it is unable to deal with shem successfully itself, that it hasn't ,ae means or the organization to afford relief, cb =cI the ravages Of famine and disease and restore the country which has been torn by bolshevik policies to state of order and health.
 Evidence of this was furnished when Russia made it's appeal to the United States for help in meeting the dire sit uation. This is country to which most any other turns quickly when the relief of humanity is sought, so that it was natural for soviet Russia to put forth it's appeal even though there is no diplomatic relations between the govern men-s. How desperate the situation must be over there is indicated by the fact that the soviet government has now agreed to the terms which were outlined when Russia was told that American help would be given Soviet Russia has steadfastly refused to deviate from its principles for the purpose of improving the relations between the countries Faced with the frightful conditions fol which it must at least accept a certain smo'.nt of the responsibility, and upor whose shoulders the world will place al of 1t. the soviet government now yield! to the requirements by which it can SC cure the American aid even though tha help means the bending of soviet prinei ates.
 Nevertheless, it is wise decison tha has been made. Russia will get food fo The starving, disease will be fought an the relief work will be conducted b, Amerlcans without interference by tn soviet government. There are thos who see in the agreement an improve ment in relations between the two coun tries That is of course a matter whic rests largely with soviet Russia. Ina the relations are what they have bee and what they are today can be attrit lted directly to the horrible spectacl presented by bolshevism ana nothin .lse.

One of the many clever ways in which savings are effected by big automobile companies was illustrated by a story told the other day by a manufacturer of parts used in quanti- ties in the making of a widely known cheap car. He received instructions to pack all shipments in cases made of boards of a centain length and width and with screw holes a specified dis tance apart. He grumbled a good deal at this. but since the order came from his largest customer he said nothing and compiled with instructions.
