Red Tape Must Go!

Red tape must go! The time is
opportune for the ship of state to
drop this Anticipated pilot of delay
and inef6ciency. The machinery
of the government too long has
been entangled by its meshes. For
years tolerated as a necessary evil,
it required the World War to open
the nations eyes to the grave con-
sequences Of putting up with such
an obsolete and moth-eaten sys-
tenn. Even now many govern
ment departments are hopelessly
struggling with the red tentacles
while our national interests suffer.
But President Harding has spoken
and The cry is being echoed down
the line. The new administration
intends to substitute modern bust
ness methods. Both time and
money will be saved by the elimi
nation Of red tape. The joint con-
gressional committee on govern
mental reorganization is taking
the initial step in the direction
pointed out by Charles G Dawes,

Large Bounty Paid

During the first seven months of
1921 Shelby county paid $l400 in
bounties on coyotes, and sl239.4O
for bounties on gophers caught.
This is more than was paid out
during the whole Of the year 1920.
The bounty on gophers is ten
cents each. We cannot estimate
the amount of damage the 1884
gophers caught would have done
to the farmers crops.

Man Who Works Has
Distinct Advantages

Last spring, a man who works in
the kitchen of one of the Universi-
tvs fraternity houses was elected
to Phi Beta Kappa, the great hon
orary scholastic fraternity.
The man who works has certain
distinct advantages" says the
DAILY lowan, student daily at
the University of Iowa. "He is, by
his limited funds, exempt from
temptation to indulge in expensive
and proftless recreation. He is
forced to come to the golden dis
.coyery of his own capacity for
work and appreciates the education
which it takes such a grind to get. J"
"a large number of men could
not go to college at all if they did
not work, and it is to be hoped
that boys who contemplate college
training and are not in plentiful
finances will not be frightened. Let
boys of lank purse come to college
with their sleeves rolled up. There
is long line of men famous in the
history of the world who went
about classrooms in the seediest of
coats" says the editorial.

Some Sad, but True Facts
Concerning August Month

August is the month when men
sweat and women perspire. Wo-
men keep from really sweating by
dobbing their pores full of cos
metics. The little that does ooze
through is then called perspiration.
1t really is, of course, old-fashioned
odoriferious sweat that has lost it's
distinctive qualities by being
strained through an inch of scent
| ed enamel.
August is a hard month on kids
and dogs. The barefoot kid has a
hard time finding a place on either
the ground or the sidewalk that
will not blister his feet, and every
dog must be careful to not let his
tongue be seen, for a dog with a
tongue in August is.a sure. enough
"mad dog" reeking with hydro
phobia germs, and q bullet is COM
ing his way.
Then there are the August chau-
tauquas, too. Every town has
chautauqua in August. The chau-
tauqua has had a record much like
that of a newspaper-when the
first one was started everybody
said the United States would never
support two. Well, they are not
supported as they should be, but
every hamlet now has news
paper, and if it doesn't have an
annual chautauqua the inhabitants
are wondering how they can get
one. If all the oratory that breaks
loose on chautauqua platforms this
month could be bound into one
book, it probably would represent
a collection of the worlds worst
literature.
The heated days of Augustus sun
will keep the ice man on the run.
1t gives a blush to orchard; peach,
but more to those upon the beach;
to these it gives darker pink
that keeps our eyelids on the
blink; and, while we like the or
chard brand, we love the ones out
on the sand.
