A SERIOUS SITUATION.

The editor of the Courier spent Saturday and Sunday
in Jackson and found the conditions prevailing
that in greater or less degree, prevails he State in
regard to the liquor situation. There, in many
ties the good citizens protesting that the local author
ies are making effort to prevent the sale of liquor
and that the traffic in moonshne is practically unhnder
ed.
Many good citizens are DISCOURAGED and feel that il
is almost hopeless to expect better things.
The good citizens of Breathtt county, of Wolfe
county, of Morgan county, and of any other county can
make themselves potent in the enforcement of the law this
year by casting every other thing from them in their vo
ing their desire for good government and elect only
such as be depended upon to enforce the law.
Next year they not do this for it will be too late
This the year that will decide whether not shall
have law enforcement or four years of unbrdled iuuo
selling Regrets will not avail us if we elect men who
will not enforce the law This is the year Of opportunity
and if fail to take the advantage we will be estopped
by our own acts from complaining.
is up to the good citizens what we shall have for
the next four years.

In the book, "What Really Happened
in Paris" Colonel House, one of the
contributors, says: "Even now the
debts which Europe owes America
cannot be collected without the proc
ess of war unless the debtors choose
otherwise. Such conditions make for
bad foreign relations, and we shall
awaken to this when we begin to press
for interest payments" Colonel
Houses motive is, Of course to stir up
trouble-to make the relations exist
ing between the United States and Eu-
rope appear much blackcr than they
are. This country is having no trouble
with Europe over the Indebtedness in
curred-the government has no fear
that Great Britain, France and Italy
will not meet their obligations. AS to
going to war to collect our debts, that
is a pure absurdity. Old Colonel
House always was a strife breeder,
but he should have better sense, now
that conditions are beginning to as
sumo state of tranquility, to con-
tinue to pursue such course.

There is nothing particularly start
ling in the fact that society girls are
invariably selected as "queens of
beauty" for the reason that these per-
sonages with bejewelcd garters are
possessed of the necessary influence
in the shape of wealth to assure their
selection. It often amuscs us to see
portrayed in the daily papers half
tones of these so-called "queens Of
beauty" some of whom are as home
ly as the simians of the Congo jungles.
For real queens of beauty any farming
community can bring forward girls
who, even in bingham dresses and
nothing but natures coloring on their
cheeks, outclass these painted society
dolls a thouscnd per cent both for
good looks and perfection Of figure.

seph Gilbert, former nonpartisan
league official who is serving a Jail
sentence at Red Wing, saying, eve

not seem to us to make the slightest
difference whether a man committed
an ofense against the law in time of
peace or time of war. The fact that
he was convicted is sufficient and he
should pay the penalty.

Madame Curie, the discoverer of ra-
dunn, is in this country at the invita-
ton of group of women who have
raised over 100000 to present: to her
gram of radium which she needs for
further researches. She says she in
tends using this radium for the con-
tinuance of experiments in the cure
of cancer. "Radium," she says, "is
a positive cure for cancer. 1t has al
ready cured all kinds of the disease,
even deep-rooted cases." When it
was suggested that there was conflict
of opinion among the medical fra
ternity as to the efficacy CT the radium
treatment for cancer, she replied:
Nevertheless, there can be positive
cures when properly applied. Those
who have failed do not understand the
method" In this we hope Madame
Curie is correct. At any late, she is
remarkable woman, one of the lead
ing scientists of the world, and one
whose chief aim in life is to wipe out
one of the worst diseases to which
humanity is susceptible.

Colonel George Harvey has been re-
ceived by King George at Buckingham
palace and the two Georges engaged
in an hours tete-a-tete. The king
showed the ambassador over the prin-
cipal rooms of the palace, including
the cellar, where, it is said, the colonel
was particularly interested in the fes-
toons of cobwebs which hung from
the long-necked bottles. The king
laughed, called a butler, and the toast
was, "Here's no, George!" uttered
simultaneously. We predict that from
now on the two Georges will be par
ticularly chummy.

LOYALTY.

The Jordan Independent remarks
that thrift, industry, dccency, common
honesty and loyalty are essential fol-
success in any undertaking. We would
head the list of these old-fashioned
virtues with loyalty, loyalty spelled in
big capitals. Strange as it may
seem, this element so essential to the
make up of any real man seems to be
bred in the bone but like most other
characteristics it can be cultivated or
smothered. Watch your loyal man,
he is not continuously parading his
friendship and devotion but deep in
his being there burns that little white
flame which can be instantly kindled
into red hot blast.
It does not take times Of crisis or
the trying days of war to bring out
mans loyalty. Every day Of his life
he has a chance to show Of what metal
he is made. Right here in our own
county and community, as undoubted-
ly in many other communities of the
state, there are men who are today
sowing the seeds Of disloyalty. 1t
will not be difficult to place them.
Watch them, are they quick to de-
nounce the man who differs with them
on any subject, declaring him crook
and thief or are they big enough to
admit that the other man may be act
ing from honest convictions? AS a
rule the man who is continually qucs-
tioning the dcccncy and honesty Of his
fellowmen is neither decent nor hon.
est himself. Watch your cheap de-
nounccr, look up his record, what has
he done for the community in which
he lives? The man who is not loyal
to his own state or his home town is
to be Stunned. The highways are
broad and the quicker that man is on
his journey, the better for all con-
cerned.
The man who has not this quality
of loyalty is denied many Of the rich
est blessings Of this earth. He can
never feel the glow Of real patriotism
because the true patriot is everlasting
ly loyal to his own country. He can
never rise to the heights of real friend
saip because he is not worthy Of that
gift. The man who will betray one
friend will betray another, he is not
to be trusted. He will never have that
sense of civic pride in Lis home town
or city which should be the portion of
every good citizen. In fact, in every
phase of life he is placing himself or
lower plane than his fellowmen who
have that stronger and finer serse OF
loyalty.

1t is announced that TIE next con-

will be held in Paris on June 1 for the
purpose of discussing methods for Sc
curing rep2r:tions for, Payment of
Gernany's war debt to France, Ger
many having decided to abide by the
councils decision. That supreme coun-
Gil has been comforting and comforting,
but so far it's work has been decidedly
negligible. However our own Colonel
Harvey will sit in at the next session,
and it goes without saying that he will
stir the foreigners up even if he has
to resort to the use of half a dozen
languages, parliamentary and unparlia-
mentary. Nothing would tickle our
fancy more than to be afforded an
opportunity to attend the council
meeting when Colonel Harvey touches
off his pyrotechnics.

GOOD TEAMWORK.

The business men of the country
and the business men of the village
met together Tuesday evening to dis
cuss the public scale proposition. Ac-
cording to all reports the meeting was
entirely satisfactory in every respect.
Each speaker: frankly expressed his
views and in the discussion which fol-
lowed not the slightest bit of friction
developed. The men who attended
that meeting evidently had the good
sence to presume that all those present
were interested in arriving at the best
possible solution of the problem and
no one was there to slip something
over on the other chap.
It may be decided tiat the scale
shall be installed and managed by 2
stock company composed Of farmers
only. If such be the iinni decision,
there is little doubt but what several
hundred dollars could be raised among

NO REASON FOR DESPAIR.

There recently appeared a state
ment by B. B. Jackson, superintendent
of schools in Minneapolis, criticising
the American people for their indif-
ference in regard to education. He
quoted figures to show that $22 ,700,-
100000 was spent by the people of
this nation in the year 1920 for to-
bacco, chewing gum, soft drinks, cos
metics and other similar "absurd lux
uries." He stated that this amount
is % times as much as was spent for
education during that same period and
it is six billions more than has been
spent for education since the nation
was founded.
1t has become the custom of men
who are directing money drives for
educational or philanthropic purposes
to present the public with such sta
tistics and frequent use of this argu-
ment seems to decrease its effective
ness. =.
Of course the extreme wastefulness
of the American people on these So
called "absurd luxuries" is lamenta-
BILE and as a nation we can hardly be
said to have "passion for education
But after all is this state of affairs
so surprising? It is doubtful if the
untamed Fiji Island beauties could be
induced to trade their beads and cos
metics for the finest library ever
assembled and our own ancestors at
one time probably had no higher ed
vocational ideals than these dusky
maidens. We are progressing and in
some respects progressing rapidly but
we still have the lower concepts with
us and man in this generation, at least
is certain to spend good portion of
his substance in satisfying the desires
of his grosser nature. The general
march is upward, and four or five gen.
erations later there may be race of
people who have a passion for edu-
cation"
