cline to cline, and the winds waited
it from nation to nation; and mer-
chants bought and sold it, by whole
sale and retail, with precisely the
same feelings, on the part of the sell
| err buyer and bystander, as are felt
at the selling and buying of ploughs,
beef, bacon or any other of the real
necessities of life. Universal public
opinion not only tolerated but re-
cognized and adopted it's use"
Despite these conditions, so clear
ly described by Mr., Lincoln, he was
total abstainer and an opponent of
| the liquor traffic. One of his biog-
raphers records the incident that
when the committee appointed by the
national convention to notify Mr..
Lincoln of his nomination for presi-
dent was coming to Springfield, some
of his devoted admirers, thinking
that the distinguished visitors might
expect liquid refreshments, sent him
a supply of wine for the occasion. He
sent it back to the donors with
courteous explanation that he had
never offered wines to his friends
and could not do it now The COM
mittee arrived. They drank the
health of the President that was-to-
be, in water from the spring.
Today the manufacture and sale of
intoxicating liquor has been out
lawed in the United States and none
! but disreputable bootleggers are en-
gagged in the business. Booze has
been repudiated by vast majority
of the people. Employers frown up
| on the use of intoxicants by their en-
ployes. Business men look with sus-
picion upon customers who are
known to be seekers after moon
shine. Children are taught to abhor
the vile stuff. The churches are unit
ed against any modification of the
national prohibition law. Congress-
men and senators fear to vote in ia
yor of any concessions to the old
guard Of demon rum. No political
party dares to champion the cause of
liquor.
Even when booze was a dominant
and recognized factor in the social
and political life of the nation, the
brave and far-seeing Lincoln took
his stand against it and in this in
stance, as we'll as in many others, his
Judgment has been indicated by the
course of events.

ORGANIZATION HELPS ALL

In one respect the cooperative
fight is an uphill fight That is
because so many of the benefits a
marketing association attains for its
members also result to the morgan
lied producers of the same commo-
dity. The wheat market in the Pa
cific states this year is an illustra-
ton of that fact: practically every
man familiar with the markets re-
allies that during the present sea-
son the spread between coast prices
and those of the middle west and
east is many cents less than hereto
fore.
This means that wheat growers
whose markets are Pacific Coast
ports are getting several cents more
per bushel this year, compared with
prices being received in other parts
of the country, than formerly. The
only new element to which these bet
ter prices can be attributed is the
cooperative movement.
But the unorganized growers re-
ceiye this benefit of several cents
bushel as well as the men who are
members of the wheat marketing as
sociations. So it is customary case
for those who are not in line with
the cooperative movement to mini
mize its effect upon the western
markets.
This situation has troubled other
organizations, a survey of the
country shows that the labor com
munities most highly organized have
the best wages and the most salts
factory working conditions. The
unorsanized south - the "black
south" black not because of its col
ored population but because of its
evil industrial conditions-is noted
for low pay and long hours of work.
But in the well organized com
munities labor outside of the unions
also profits from the effects OF or
ganization and the united action of
organized workers often is not given
the credit due it for the results it
has achieyed.-Th Producer.

1t works like lightning, is a famil-
lar figure of speech. That may be
taken literally, however, in the case
of the method of thawing frozen
water pipes developed by Professor
II. j. Dana Of the engineering expert
ment station at the State College of
Washington. He says the ideal
method is to shoot current of cleo
tricity through the pipes, and, Pres
to. the ice is melted without any
bursting and flooding
"A locality which has enjoyed
years of snowy winters occasionally
finds itself in the fidst of cold snap
with no snow to protect the ground
from freezing" says Professor Dana.
If water pipes have not been uni
formly located beneath the frost line,
the result will be an epidemic of fro
zen water pipes. Unless relieved
this soon results in actual hardship
to the people in the affected houses,
which can be relieved only by re-
establishing water service.
Frequently the pipe is frozen at
the curb cock, oh where the pipe

A JOYOUS CHRISTMAS

To the people of the United States
this should be by far the most joy
our Christmas since the one of 1918.
Then the country was wild with joy
and merriment because the world
war had been won and the boys
would soon be coming home. The
realization of the vision of an era OF
peace and good will among the peo-
ples of the earth seemed close at
hand. But, as month followed month
and two succeeding Christmases
came and passed, the vision seemed
to be fading away and the advocates
of peace and disarmament were OPP
pressed by doubts and disappoint-
ment. Hope long deferred was maxi
ing their hearts sick. Nations which
had been drawn close together by the
war were becoming distrustful of one
another and it began to appear as if
the only fruits of the terrible sacri-
fees of blood and money were to be
new hatreds, jealousies, burdensome
taxes, heavy debts, business stagna-
ton and a renewal of the suicidal
race for military and naval suprem-
acy
But now the vision of permanent
peace seems nearer realization again,
as a result of the spirit and accom-
plishments of the conference on the
limitation of ornaments in session at
Washington The leading world pow
ers have agreed on the terms of a
navy building holiday of l 0 years and
have reached a friendly understand
ing on several points which were
likely to cause friction This will
tend to minimize the danger of flu
ture conflicts. and there is so much
encourageme in the fact that the
leaders of these great powers are eX-
perimenting with a program of pre-
paredness for peace instead of for
war, and have turned their eyes to-
ward the star which led the wise men
to Bethlehem, as to make this Christ
mas joyous one.
Then, too, during the past year
the people of this nation have been
given the privilege of extending aid
and comfort to hundreds of thousands
of starving and homeless unfortu-
mates in other lands Their generous
response to the call for aid has re-
suited in the rescue of great multi
tudes of men. women and children
from miserable death. 1T is more
blessed to give than to receive and
the generous giving by our country
will bring into our hearts a full meas
ure of the Christmas spirit and en-
able us to enter joyously into the
celebration of the anniversary of the
birth of the Saviour of mankind, who
said: 'Tnasmuch as We have done it
unto one of the least of these, my
brethren, We have done it unto Me"

CHASED BY COYOTES

Chester Getschell, son of a farmer
residing east of Pullman, was pur-
sued by two coyotes as he was on his
way to town from the farm one night
recently. The young man was walk
ing along the railroad tracks when
the beasts came out from behind a
warehouse and gave chase. He took
refuge on bridge and the coyotes,
after remaining near for some time,
took to their heels. The animals are
becoming pest in the Palouse coun-
try and big coyote drive is planned
for the near future by citizens of
Pullman and nearby farmers.

TWELVE WEEKS OF SCHOOL
FOR PIONEERS OF MINES

Without doubt civilization has
been developed on metallic basis,
and the miner has been the real pio-
neer of industry and of empire. -
says Dean l.. o. Howard of the school
of mines and geology at the State
College of Washington.
On January this school opens a
II weeks session for these pioneers
of industry, giving to anyone who
can read and write intelligently and
has a serious purpose (and can do
ordinary sums in arithmetic) a
chance to study mining, geology, as
saying, ore testing, metallurgy, min
eralogy and mine surveying.
The idea is to help men tone must
be 2 years old to enter) who are in
terested in mining but have not had
fne time, money or previous school
ing to take regular college courses in
mining and metallurgy.
The work is done more in the lab
oratories than in the class recitation,
as it is the idea of the faculty that
the men should learn by doing" in
the assaying, surveying, drafting,
chemistry, ore testing, etc. One may
specialize on any subject that most
interests, and may at the same time
attend any lecture on the college
campus that sounds attractive.
The library offers special attrac-
ton to those who have been wher9
they could not get books on their
specialties, for it contains practically
all the standard works on mining and
metals in the English language, cur
rent numbers and bound files of the
important mining journals and 9TH
er technical periodicals and reports.
Those who complete the work sat
isfactorily will be granted a certifi-
cate signed by the heads of the de-
partments, stating what work the
student did.
In the mining building the larger
mining and metallurgical machinery
is installed, with the class rooms, mu-
scum, drafting rooms and general Of
fees, Machinery and apparatus for
sampling, making amalgams, concen-
tration, smelling and cyaniding are
there, as well as a complete flotation
testing laboratory where students
may test their own ore. The labor
atories for assaying ard metallurgical
work are in College hall, and Science
hall houses the department of geol-
ogy, with its blow-pipe, mineralog-
ical and Photographic laboratories

not require the disturbance of any
thing on the premises, nor that the
exact location of the frost be found.
Furthermore, it is comparatively
cheap where there is any amount of
thawing to be done"
In Engineering Bulletin No. 7, just
off the college press there are dia-
grams and tables showing the actual
thawing outfit tried and proven prac-
ticable in Pullman houses during
cold spells. The outfit consists of a
sled on which is mounted a set of
transformers such as are used for
lighting purposes, so connected that
the line voltage is transformed from
$500 to ITO, or 55 volts. Power was
taken from the city service by two
No. 10 wires carried on reels on the
sled. The bulletin describes the APP
paratus and method of connecting it
with the pipes and measuring the
amount OF current used. In all 1873
Jobs of thawing were done, the long
est job taking 60 minutes; the short
est q minute and a quarter.

A MIGHTY CHANGE IN
SENTIMENT

1t is a long cry from the days of
1912 to those of 1921, and many re-
markable changes in public senti-
ment have marked the intervening
years. None of them are more not
able than the reversal of public opin-
ion regarding the manufacture, sale
and use of intoxicating liquors. as is
evidenced by an extract from tenn
perance address delivered by Abra-
ham Lincoln in the Second Presby-
terrain church, Springfield, H., Feb
ruary %, 1912, in which he referred
to the drinking usages of society in
the following words:
Let US see. l have not inquired
at what period of time the use of in
toXicating liquors commenced. nor is
It important to know. 1t is suffi-
eient that to all of us who now in

drinking them is just as old as the
world itself-that is. we have seen

In any event, to get at the pipe to
thaw it with torch requires more or
less eXcavaing in frozen dirt, and
then perhaps the pipe is not frozen
where it was thought to be. This
method also leads to unnecessary ex-
