Dose Of Cat o.
Nine Tails And
Negro Airs Out

'Bubber' Garrett, colored employee
Of the l.. K N. round house, sought
a healthier climate the early part OF
this week after having been treated
to two doses of the cat o. nine tails
by an unidentified party of white
-nen on Sunday night. the flogging
taking place near the l.. & N depot
For the past week or so there has
cen complaints from the telephone
operators on the night shift that
some party was calling almost every
night from the West End section and
using improper language in the en-
,orced conversations, although the
identity of the caller could not be
ascertained. Sunday night the call
came from the booth at the depot
installed by the Red Ball Taxi Ser
vice, and during the conversation one
of the operators called a phone near
by the booth and asked the party
to see who was there The negro
was found emerging from the booth
and short while later was taken
to task for his conduct
After a sound threshing he was
advised to "air out" and not show
up around Paris again. Later, hav-
ing been reluctant at taking the ad-
vice, he was persuaded" again, and
accordingly took a hasty leave, neg
lecting to leave forwarding address
for his mail

According to Resident Engineer
Eubanks the s-McKenzie project
will be completed in it's entirety by
the latter part of this coming No

county highway is costing about
$3.50, 900. The government pays one
half this amount and the state and
case in the half-million dollar north

On the south highway there are
fifty teams now working hauling
gravel out from Paris, Routon, Henry

necessary to secure a tangent the

that the highway is in the rear and

The Lid on Armament Making.

Adjustment OF private manufacture OF war
materials has been proposed to the international
conference in Washington. A definite suggestion
to this end has been brought up, oddly enough,
by director of great munitions plant. He is
Edgar Park, organizer and president during the
war of the Marlin-Rockwell corporation, makers
of machine guns, aerial guns automatic rifles, air
bombs, torpedoes and small arms. His company
has now turned aside from these lines and is
making automobile accessories.
No charges or admissions are made by Mr..
Park that any wars are caused by the armament
companies, but he is so firmly convinced that an
agreement among the nations for common own
ershp Of munitions plants would aid peace that
he has gone to Washington TO further his plan.
An international committee would manage such
manufacture as would be necessary for the main
tenance of law and the suppression of internal
disorder Each nation would punish its nationals
found to be in private invention, development or
manufacture OF war devices.
The fact has been pretty well established that
the armament business for many years has been
IN the hands OF international syndcates. British
plants would willingly sell materials to the Ger
man army 1t was even shown that in order to
obtain large contracts some of the European
arms makers engineered war scares and con-
ducted propaganda to frighten whole nations and
set them to feverish competition. Mr. Park may
know more about such things than does the pub

Mr.. Harding and the Congress.

In advising the congress as 10 the state oil
the union duty laid upon him by the Constiiu-
ton, the president outlines no startling pro-
gram. As in all his former addresses, he care
fully states conclusions arrived at by deliberate
processes OF reason, or makes suggestions tina,
are supported by experience, all looking 10 the
further consolidation OF country at peace but
not yet entirely tranquilized He believes, and
has with him q considerable volume OF public
opinion. tina, one step TO the final restoration OF
normal conditions throughout the world will
come through the reiunding OF the war debt
owed US by European governments.
Attention to this Is urged upon congress, with
recommendation for early action. Home mar
ke,ing and the state Of agriculture gets serious
consideration by the president, whose inter-
est in the farmer is genuine. Further re-
vision OF the revenue is urged, to the end
that greater relief may be given the taxpayers
without erippling the government, and the speedy
enactment Of the tariff bill His suggestion for
an amendment to the fundamental law, designed
10 prohibit the issuance OF tax-free securities,
will probably evoke as much discussion as any
proposal made in his address. All OF these
points have had some public consideration, and
will receive more
Mr.. Harding is happy in his permission to
congratulate the nation, and the world, that we
are for the first time in many years free from
either war in fact or in prospect, and that great
agencies are at work, striving to make the event
OF war even more remote. His own magnificent
contribution to this very satisfactory state of az
fairs is contained only in his presentation OF facts
relating to the conference he called. The world,
however, is not likely to forget how much Presi-
dent Harding has done for permanent peace.
The message deserves careful reading, and will
get ample discussion as the days go BY 1t

establish normalcy as rapidly as possible.

Frank Reavis to Retire.

The word from Lincoln to the effect that
Frank Reavis plans to retire from congress at
the close OF his present term merely confirms
an impression his close friends have entertained
for some time. Mr.. Reavis feels he can not in
justice to himself continue in the public service
This, Of course, is personal matter. However
the retirement OF this man who has served his
district, his state and his country we'll as mcm-
Der of congress through very critical period
will again call to mind the prediction made by
Bryce as to the possible fate of the United States.
The great English critic pointed out the difficulty
OF retaining in the public service men Of ability,
whose personal affairs would prosper much
greater if they directed their talents to private
pursuits.
Of course, there are notable exceptions to
this; able men have found it possible to remain
in congress or elsewhere in the public service
for many years, even for life time, sacrificing
their own chances to the public good. These
are the more to be cherished because they are
imbued by that high spirit of patriotism which
induces them to think more of their countrys
welfare than of their own. Opposed to this is
the conclusion Of the other who honestly be-
lieves that he should be permitted to devote
portion of his ability to matters other than those
common to all, and who thinks he can serve hu-
manity better in another way than by devoting
himself exclusively to public Office.
Reason it out to the end, and finally it comes
to question of choice, with this difference: The
man who serves the public in Office finds himself
usually at the close OF life with little to show
for all his sacrifices, while the other has at least
had the chance of turning his ability to some
good for himself Nebraska will lose capable
congressman when Frank Reavis goes back to
his law office. .

Accepting the Universe

While the great conference is trying to set
this tiny world right there's small space in the
paper for news of the universe. STILL four inches
are devoted to Prof. Albert A. Michelson's an
nouncement to the National Academy of Science
that there superstars millions of times larger
than the sun-of such vastness that the brain
reels in trying to describe their dimensions in
terms of human understanding.
It's a relief to be told that Imagination can be
stretched no further in attempting to grasp in
unity. The astronomers of late have been pro-
gressively staggering the minds Of poor mortals
with celestial measurements that make our PIN
point OF planet appear more and more con-
temptible. When Prof Nicholson few months
ago, with his interferometer, proved that Betel-
guese, one of the pretty little sparks of Orion,
has 800 times the diameter Of the sun he did
quite enough to belittle our whirligig of solar
system. The admission that the picayune globe
can be dwarfed no more by comparative figures
that are ineligible is welcome. Our habitation
was being reduced to the point OF vanishment.

Leonard Hill tells OF a curate who

Good judgment lies somewhere in
between.
In contrast with the English
curate. Burgess. swimming the Eng
lish channel, was in the cold water,
without any clothing, for nearly 20
hours. His skin was protected from
chilling by a heavy coat OF grease
and he was exercising actively, but
he had on no clothing.
Leonard Hill says that civilized
white man Is comfortable in still,
moderately moist air at 81 degrees.
The sensation Is pleasant at II to
S6 degrees. At SO the air feels cold.
At 80 to 81 it feels intensely cold.
The best clothing to protect
against cold are loose garments
made of wool.

ing taken as 1. that Of wool fiber

These figures apply to the fiber
Itself. The air held In the mesh of
the garment is another factor, and
even a more important one. Wool
has an additional advantage in that
the mesh of woolen garments holds
a large quantity of air.
Much heat is lost through the
space around the collar, the wrists
and ankles. Walking pumps hot air
out of the trouser legs and cold air
into them.
Therefore, Greenfell advised that
garments worn in very cold climates
be not open at the collar, wrists and
ankles. The jacket is continued
into the hood, fits tight at the
wrists, and overlaps the trousers,
being drawn close around the body
at the bottom. The trousers end in
socks, as the corresponding gar
ment in children's nighties does, or |

Anti tuberculosis Campaign.

Recurrent with the season comes the sale of
stamps by the anti-tubercuosis society. If this
were all, then the little stickers might long ago
have worn out their welcome and have ceased
to be. But the stamp is symbol OF something
that can not be expressed in just few words.
TO understand it and its mission, one must get
vision of the worldwide fight against the dread
white plague; must see, first the nlyriads of VIC
tins, moving to untimely graves, doomed by the
insdious bacillus. Then picture Of science

destroyer and finally science holding out hope

is promoting the sale of the little Christmas

breaking them up wherever possible. 1t is hunt
ing out the victims, showing them how to wage
winning fight against the plague, and is in
structing those who might be attacked how to
avoid the scourge. In short, it is anti-tubercu-
losis and that is why each year the public be-
decks its December mail with the little reminders
of great work, the stamps carrying not only
message of cheer, but more important promise
of help to those who sorely need help.
