These men and women asked gifts of Life.
 And this is how Life granted.
 A young artist asked fame, not the senseless ac- claim of the ob but that real fame which IS the shadow cast across history by great achievement
 He worked. He struggled. He Waded through the swamp of neglect staggered deserts of contempt fought his way through jungles of criticism. l.. great.
 But Fame, when she came found him a lonely broken old She arrived in time to speak eoqueny

 He succeeded
 But he was sixty He had the rheumatism. He was bald He had lost all his teeth but hree just enough to anchor the gold plates His wife had left him for younger man. He was bad terms with his children
 The fifty million dollars he had asked of Life she gave him his sixtieth birthday but her smile was crooked.
 A girl asked for love- for husband and children and full life And Life gave But first she broke the womans heart and sowed salt upon her hopes.
 man and woman wanted each other, with the madness of primitive fire Love was, to the all They brushed aside honor and all laws. At last they were locked in each others Life gave them what they had asked
 But it was their bodies alone that met. For at that moment their souls far apart as far as the east is from the west The consummation of their bliss was the hollow. horror of great tragedy. Then they knew that much they hated themselves they hated
 So the wise ask of Life no Ending, but, if may be, song as they walk along, and cup of cheer at the wayside inn.
 For they know the End is but an incident. It IS no prize to win no laurel to wear, recompense. It is but one of Lifes many days.

Half Hearted support

Senator King of Utah offering bill requiring that all government savings be covered into the treasury and putting end to the perncious prac- tice of carrying unexpended balances for the the departments and bureaus for which they were appropriated, said
 President. Gen. Dawes-who has been doing, think. admirable work and hope his powers may be increased if he effectuate any reforms-made statement recently in which he said the budget bureau had saved substantially s112Ooooo0 My opinion is that the general is in error, and will suffer a rude awakening when the federal agencies of the executive departments make up their final report for the year. He will find that of these bureaus in which he reports gains will demand further appropriation and report deficiencies. The distinguished general does not yet know the habits of government departments and bureaus However giving full credence to the generals report, am ferng bill requiring that the savings referred to by Gen. Dawes be covered into the treasury. should grab them while I afraid they will prove lusve but let whether they have been be saved.
 If General Dawes is in it will be found that his error does not consist in inaccuracy of his estimate of the needs bureaus and departments but in relying upon such half-hearted hestatng sympathy expressed by the Utah senator, who wishes him we'll. but feels that not acquainted himself with the habits Of government departments and bureaus" We may believe that Senator King believes these habits bad and as we understand General Dawes made director of the budget to overcome these bad habits If is given by Senator King and his associates in both houses of congress the needful authority. he will them He has the of the president president cannot create and confer powers.
 The heads of bureaus and departments are us- ually not business men, More often they are only professional politicians and sometimes states men, While the cabinet of President Harding is recognized exceptionally strong one it embraces only two. we believe. who have distinguished them selves as business men-NIr. Mellon and MT. Hoover The heads of the departments not as rule though themselves with the details of the financial needs of their bureaus That is left the bureau chiefs, none of whom perhaps business men and many of whom suppose have actually no personal knowledge of the needs of their bureaus but leave that to still smaller underlings who only know that as much money should be placed the disposal of the bureau it may expend within the range of fancy

ABOUT THE STATE

following discussion of a proposal to that end at the regular meeting of the association here last night.

 wILLIAMS-Claren Sullivant. suffered fatal injuries Wednesday afternoon from the explosion of a box of dynamite. Three other boys, Miles Cureton, ''Bilr' (Audrey) Spell mire and Carlos Camarena. who were with him at the time of the acci- dent. received only minor injuries.
 The accident occurred at the cinder pit on Red Hill just west of town. This pit is situated on property be- lon ying to the Saginaw Manistee Lumber company. Tom Shultas. city teamster, was using sticks of dyna mite from a 50 pound box to loosen the cinders which he was hauling from the hill and using to cap the streets in town. According to the story of the boys as told before the coroner's jury, the fatal blast was caused by firing into the box contain ing the dynamite.-News.

An Averted Railway Horror


 "Train passes over baby track; escapes un- injured" says Republican headline. Here is a happy departure from the general run of the morn ing's news. We can hardly pick up paper without encountering accounts of railway dis asters in which engineer, firemen other mem Der of the crew and times passengers lose lives It is therefore certainly worth that in at least one case train more less miracuously escaped.
 The dispatch further states that when the en- gineer had pulled his train the danger he stopped it, went back and found the baby crying. Heartess hard boiled little wretch! We suppose he was weeping with chagrin because the train escaped. This youthful Alexander growing up into a great conqueror will be suffused tears because there are no more worlds to overrun-no more enemies to be killed.
 But shall say of the parents of this babe who permitted him to trespass upon the right of way to the peril of the travelling public whose woes are already sufficiently burdensome with high fares and tax added?

 A. The Bureau of Internal Reve- nue says that income taxes may be paid by money order, check, or cash Cash. however, is only accepted where there is a collectors office or branch of his office SO that the cash may be taken care of. If the taxes are paid at an office where the money must be forwarded to the col- lector of the district. then they must be paid by check or. money order
 O. What is the tradition concern ing the nine of diamonds that eives it the name "The Curse of Scot land ?"-V- M. K
 A. There are several theories as to the req son for the nickname. One, that the nine of diamonds was the chief card in Comette, which game ruined many .amilies in Scotland. Another, that the Duke of Cumber- land. while drunk and gambling on the night before the battle of Cullo- den. wrote on the face of this card that no quarter should be given on the following day.
