ENJOY THE DAY.

The poet Horace long ago advised
idea OF enjoyment was not exactly
that which one would suggest pro-
miscuously, nor his reason-"for to-
morrow we die"-the best Of reasons.
But the general advice is good.
To be more specific it is good to
note that not only are Fairgrounds
athletics being encouraged in interest
ing contests, but that various baseball
teams are being organized to play
against one another. The usual sched
ules are continuing and outlaw mines
are furnishing excitement for many.
Rife matches are taking place, and
other contests are being held which
do not find the light of publicity.
It Is all good. It would be better it
every company, corporation or firm
employing enough men to form
baseball team were to be represented
in the field of sport in the summer.
There can be no overestimating the in
dividual benefit that would come to
those who participated, and the gen.
eral good that would result in the
form of spirit of comaraderie among
employees who would watch with inter
est the results of the contests and the
contests themselves. There may some
times come a bit of soreness to IN
dividual players who have not exer-
cised in this way for some years, but
that will pass, will bring amusement
to temper the momentary physical
discomfort, and will be more than
made up for by the pep that will
result from the knowledge that ones
playing days are not quite over.
Let there be more indulgence in
sports of all kinds while the summer
is here and let the tendency to physi-
cal lassitude be dismissed in favor IF
a determination to make the most of
| the season.

"JEST RUMINATIN
(RObcrt RuSScl.)

The Teller said most men can
win success when all goes
well;
When everybody's buyln' 1t
amt difficult to sell.
But when the hard times come
along-the days that try
mans soul,
'Tis then success is hard to gain
"a most elusive goal.
'Tis then the keen intelligence
will forge straight to the
front;
The Teller with the will to do
will win-the other won't.
The higher pile discourage
ments, the greater grows
the size
O. obstacles to face an down,
the greater is the prize
That goes to him who fights an
wins; the stronger man is
he
Than if he hadn't had no fight
an things come easily.
Those ruminatin' clouds roll Oh
the droppin' of pin
Is audible, as form the words.
mo, Buddie, don't give in.

READ WOMEN.

A hearing was held in Washington
yesterday on a bill offered by Repre-
sentative johnson, of Mississippi, de-
signed to prevent female persons
from smoking in the District of
Columbia.
At least twenty-five women were
present. An account Of <ne hearing
states that they ranged from grand.
mothers to fiappers."
A vote was taken as to how these
twenty-five women stood-for or
against the bill.
Suspended interest!
II the hearing on such a bill. or on
any bill for that matter, had been
held twenty or thirty years ago it is
probable that the women attending
would have been of the type at that
time cartooned as ''blue stockings
They would have been pictured as
wearing their hair short, looking
through gold trimmed spectacles, clad
In rather mannish outfits. their faces
bearing that severe expression of con-
scious moral rectitude which frighten5
and forbids. They would have been
described as boasting Of their habitual
stand in favor of any reform which
would tend to deprive people OF habits
to which there was attached the sus
.picion of the tiniest faint of too great
freedom. They would have stood for
any bill that was pointed at any habit
which they might deem pernicious.
But today no organ Of publicity
would dare draw such picture of
those women who attended that hear
Ing. There would be no sem blance of
truth in it. Probably they wore the
Hnartest of gowns; probably they pos
.essed that air of savoir faire which
is the envy of many men.
And they all, with one exception
voted against the bill.
In opposing the measure it is quite
possible that they did not 60 on rec
ord as favorins smoking by women.
In fact some of them do not smoke.
Eut they did go on record as opposing
legislation to restrict their persona
freedom.
It would be frivolous to say that
they objected to the appellation in the
Dill of female persons as applied to
them. It would be small to say that
pique because man had proposed the
bill induced them to protest against it
The real reason for such opposition
Irrespective of the question of th=
folly or propriety Of smoking by
women, was that they, thinking WON
IN, were against such further restric-
ton Of the liberty of anyone-mar
Or woman.
And the presence of these womer
and their almost unanimous vote
tends to destroy the hope cherished
still by many "reformers" that the
vote Of the women may be counted OF
tc be in favor of any and every SO
called reform" which inspires suci
reformers to seek to take all joy GU
Of life merely because it is joy ans
ter no other reason.

STRANGE DISAPPEARANCES
Five Men and One Woman Missing
From Summer Resorts Near Vienna


Vienna, July 28.-Five men and one
woman have disappeared mysteriously
from summer resorts in Salzbury
province within the past fortnight, ac-
cording ito reports reaching the Wen
ma police.
In each case the missing person
started out for a short stroll and wore
no hat. Searching parties have
secured the mountains and valleys but
all trace of those missing seems to
have been lost. The police are inclined
to believe that responsibility for the
disappearance rests with a band of
criminals who murder and rob their
victims and bury the bodies. In each
case the missing uerson has been a,
tourist and the robbers are said by the
police to realize that such travellers
must possess considerable z1oney in
order to afford a vacation. ~9Wadays.

LIGHTS AND SHADOWS
By John J. DAILY

COOPERATION. A.
have sketched home in the mountains,
Overlooking the rollcking .
have pictured place where the fountains
Are splashing and singing in glee.
I've selected fantastic setting 80. -...
Where the skies eternally blue
And I'd go = but l not forgetting
That it would be home without you.
Are seemingly worthless and vain
And the that of my neighbors
The less they incite to gain.
Were worshipping gods like Apollo
With incentive to carry through,
could build hill hollow
A city - but not without you.
Be the heavens of blue of gray
When you smile meath the brm of your bonnet
In your own unimprovable
But can't write lyric of gladness
Or fashion note that is
When you've gone shrouded sadness
And existence dull without you.
To revert to that home in the mountains
Overlooking the rollicking
Perhaps you'd be bored with the fountains
Forever a-babble, like me;
So I've thought of way offset it,
An apartment - I'm that would do;
But don't >now just how could get it,
For 1 can't the rent without YOU

IN small town everybody feels
privileged to stop and kiss a baby
that is being taken out for an airing.
If money talks, it didn't learn it
from the new Secretary of the
Treasury.
A president can usually hold Con-
gress firmly in line at the feed trough.
Congress has pet alligator; but he
isn't the only individual about the
premises that has a snap.
A magazine article is captioned:
Needs Of Our Merchant Marine" One
great need is somthing to carry.
If we stop the sale of pistols, it
will be hard on the army; but it will
be a great boon for husbands.
Americanism, boiled down, consists
| in doing your darnedest and giving
the other fellow fair chance.
Even the most ardent wet will now
agree with the laws declaration that
| it is crime to give away liquor.
| 1t doesn't become Americans to
chide the Irish for desiring liberty.
We had it once in this country.
The grim annals Of piracy don't
account for the disappearance of the
most celebrated of American schoon-
ers.
The story of pirates at sea is rather
absurd Why should they go to sea
when they are free to operate on
| land?
The Assuan and Roosevelt dams are
| the largest and most picturesque IN
the world, but General Dawes has just
begun on that Budget job.
The great need of the season is an
oil or gas, or electric stove thar Will
get hot enough to cook the food With
out getting hot enough to wilt the
cook.
Men have been so interested in the
length of skirts that they have neg
lected their own interests and permit
ted manufacturers to cut half a yard
from the tail of shirts.
At times one suspects that reform
lers don't hate the prize fight so much
as they love the lime light.
An incurable philosopher is one who
can find consolation in Dragging about
the heavy tax he pays.
Somehow or other, we wouldn't get
livery enthusiastic about a holy war to
make Mexico safe for the oil crowd.
A vacation would be much more
satisfactory if the old pocketbook
could enjoy the rest also.
The funny part of it is that the vic
torious people will still be paying taxes
for armament long after vanquished
Germany has finished paying the in
