A. JOHNSON, TAILOR

The Tennessee legislature has just
passed a bill appropriating $4,000 for
the purchase of dilapidated little
building in Greenville. In so doing it
seeks to honor one of it's most distin-
guished citizens, for over the door
once hung the sign "A Johnson,
Tailor" and here started life in this
humble way the seventeenth President
of the United States.
More than half century has passed
since Andrew Johnson left the White
House and the nation has had time to
judge the man sOberly and without
prejudice to understand the true sig
nificance of his stormy administra-
ton. Years have done much to re-
establish his reputation. They have
worked to dispel the mass of preju-
dice that rested over his name.i
1t does not follow that Johnson will
ever be judged great President.
Raised suddenly to the chief executive
Office in a nation still exhausted and
bleeding from the wounds of civil war,
he failed in earnest attempts to bind
the wounds. The unfinished task of
Lincoln was intruSted to him by an
unkind fate that withheld from him
gifts of tact, insight and leadership
needed to carry the work to a sue
cess.
For all that, johnson did his best
to prevent the blunders of reconstruc-
ton as he apprehended them. He
adhered closely to the policies of his
great predecessor, and these policies
were discarded only in the face of his
bitter opposition and protests. Many
students of the period of his admins.
tration now hold that if these policies
had remained in force the recovery
of the nation would have been adj
vanced by full decade.
Tennessee has reason to honor the
man who came from the tailor shoI
in Greenville Although the only oc
cupant of the White House ever i'm
peached, although failing utterly il
his most important undertakings, al
though thrust back into private life
amid the scorn and hostility of the
mass of the people, he remained stead
fast in course free of the errors tina
history reveals to have attended tn,

dued states.-New York Sun.

WRONG METHOD OF APPEAL

There was an article in a recent
issue of The Palisadian" in refer
ence to series of articles to be pre-
pared by Mrs. Oskar Meirosky of Pail
SADIE treating of present day conditions
in Europe. The first of these articles
was in the April Pearson's Magazine,
Socialist publication of the most
radical sort. If Mrs. Meirowsky has
a real message to deliver to the
American people, it is a matter of re-
greet that she did not choose a medium
more in sympathy with American feel
ing and ideals. This is drawing it
mildly, so far as our opinion goes.
Pearson's for April contains about the
nastiest fling at Woodrow Wilson's
exit from public life that has so far
appeared in print. 1t was genuine
filth of the lowest political order. 1t
may be all right for people to think
as they like, but there is difference
between the expression of liberty and
license. The freedom of the press was
never intended to give loose rein to
any one who seeks it's use for Wilt
flying the government they have sworn
to respect. Frank Harris, the editor
of the same April Pearson's, has a
so-called interview with Senator"
Harding, held during the campaign
which is an insult to the intelligence
of America. The whole issue, in fact,
is series of attacks against every
thing that is directed in behalf of the
people by the rulers of the govern
ment, and filled with praise and adula-
ton of Eugene Debs.
In apology, 1.-THE Palisadian" will
say that had the editor known the
nature of Mrs. Meirowsky's associates,
the article advertising her fOrthcom-
ing story of European conditions
would not have been printed. But
that is only another way to push over
German propaganda, which the Pear
son article appears to be. The war
is over, and Charles Schwab returning
from Europe last week says that Ger
many is making even better recovery
from the war than France. Why
shouldn't she? She wasn't touched,
while a large portion of France was
destroyed beyond restoration. Any
appeal in behalf of Germany at this
time is decidedly distasteful, no mat
ter how presented. Finally, we are
generally judged by the company we
keep, and certain other Sunday night
meetings during the war are still re-
membered.

TEARS BEFORE SMILES

The average baby learns to cry be-
fore it can laugh. Tears may be shed
as early as the twenty-second day, ac-
cordng to DIR. John S. Huber, New
York physician, who has noted the
high spots of a dawning life in his
book, "Why Die So Young?"
But not until the twenty-sixth day
does baby smile!
Tears come easier than smiles.
That, however, isn't true only to
babies. The average adult finds the
road to tears shorter than the pathway
to smiles.
Why?
Because the world has more woe
than joy? More discord than happi-
ness? More pain than pleasure?
Surely not
But it is that the average human ami
NAL is more inclined to share his trou-
bles than his pleasures.
And why does he do this? Selfish
ness, of course.
The baby, being human, takes its
share of human assets and human l1a7
bilities, smiles and tears. 1t has fol-
lowed generations of humans who
have frowned ofteRer than they have
smiled. Therefore, it is to be expect
ed that baby would exhibit tears be-
fore smiles.
Would this be true, though, if for
generations humans had laughed more
often than they lamented? If they
had revealed smiles and concealed sor-
rows?
Don't you think that few genera
lions of earthly smiles would make 1t
possible for babies few centuries
hence to smile long before their twen-
ty-siXth day?

THE MAIL ORDER BUSINESS

One OF the largest mail order
houses in the country employees a
staff to read and study the weekly
newspapers published in the small
towns. Whenever a community is
found in which the local merchants
are not steady and liberal advertis-
ers, the mail order house puts on a
catalogue campaign. The mail or
der houses get their business
from localities in which there are
no live merchants.
The truth is that local merchants
themselves are largely to blame for
the success Of the mail order houses.
The local merchant can sell goods
cheaper than a merchant in a big
city, for he is at less expense, and
while he may not carry as big a
stock of goods as the city merchant.
ne can replenish his stock as often as
may be necessary and within a few
days.
But the local merchant must adj
vertise his goods and prices il he is
TO get the trade that rightfully be-
longs to him. Thousands of dollars
go out of the town, and out of every
town, to the mail order houses every
year simply because the local mer-
chants do not advertise as they
should.
