Everybody's Goat.

Why not give the farmer a
square deal?
If ne is to receive greatly re-
duced prices for his crops,
then the labor he employs and
the things he buys to produce
those crops should be reduced
in proportion. So should
everything else that he uses.
AT the present time there is
a marked tendency in this
country to "let George do the
reducing"
Everybody wants prices re-
duced in every line but his
own, with the result that man
ufacturers. wholesalers, distri-
butors and dealers throughout
the business world are strain
ing themselves in an effort to
keep prices up in order that
they may revel a little longer
in the golden waters Of excess
sive profits.
Every human depends upon
the farmer for the food that
sustains life. and every hand is
leveled at him in an effort TO
beat him down in his prices.
A great wave Of protest
against food prices has swept
this country from one 90 the
other, and yet this avalance of
criticism which has engulfed
the man who feeds US has been
voiced principally by men who
have been reaping even great
e. profits than the farmer.
We are not the champion of
the man OF the soil, any more
than we are OF any other man
or woman in this community,
or this country.
We are just as averse to
paying excessive prices for the
food that We eat as any other
person can possibly be, be-
cause We have to dig deeply
and cough up nightly to meet
the strain.
But we are an advocate Of
the square deal in business.

ting.
He is everybody's goat.
We do not believe the high
prices in this community are
due to excessive profits on the
part Of our local dealers.
Their regulations for fair
dealing are too we'll known
for that. But there are too
many hands through which
the goods pass before they
reach this town. and every
hand has a grab Off its pound

washington,-No little uneasinesi
is being experienced by many Repub

possibility that President-elect Har

wilson's executive orders placing
first. second and third class postmas
tership and all diplomatic officers ~

der the civil service. The cause OF
this uncasincss Is that IL Mr.. Harding
does no, revoke the orders some g.
600 postmasterships and 500 diplo-
matte positions will not be disbursed
az political patronage,
More than one Of Senator Har-
ding's recent visitors To Marion.
Il was learned recently. have sought
20 persuade the Senator that party

the postmastcrsfp order. Il not the
other and while visitors came away
somewhat encouraged by the pros
poets, they filed to exact any promise
from the next President, Mr.. Har.
ding has rmained Shpinx-like in this
as he has in other matters on which
he has been dvised from all quarters.
All pcstmastcrs Of whatever class
are now in a broad sense under the
civil service Fourth-class postmas
tiers were legislated into the classif-
ed service many years ago. But
Congress refused 20 take first, second
and third class offices. commonly
known as Presidential Offices" out
Of the patronage class.
That end OF the deal was managed
By President Wilson 4 few years
ago he issued an executive order to
the oiFct that a competitive civil ser
vice examination must be taken by
all applicants for any Presidential
office. At the same time he pledg
ed himself to appoint the competitor
having the highest rating. regardless
Of his policy. The only reservation
was that the successful applicant
should be man Of good moral re

II President Harding Is to dispense
these positions as patronage, is will
be necessary for him to revoke Pres

administration. Mr.. Harding might
be saved great deal Of embarraSs-

to revoke them outright or permit
them to stand contrary TO the advice
he has been receiving from those
who have been preaching that to the
victor belongs the spells.

been filed under President wilson's
system, and many Of them are Re

are Democrats. II the present sys-
TEN is continued in efct these in

 Paris Wears Velvet
 Of all the Paris houses, Mime. Cheruit shows the greatest fondness for velvet for all occasions. Gorgeous evening gowns in rich, warm red, scarlet, henna and various shades of blue proclaim her penchant for this material, which she often further enlivens by scrollwork or embroidery of gold threads. The Parisienne still wears black during the day, but the evening gowns of velvet shown at the midwinter openings were of a brilliance of hue that presaged swinging of the pendulum away from the so long rage of black.
 Nasturtium hued velvet makes the frock in the photograph, which is built on extremely simple lines, relying for interest on the beauty and color of the material and the unusual side draping

 The Youthful Peasant

 The alluring peasant type
 of costume, which originally lSSSSsH hailed from that part of the ~ x world we have come to asso- ciate with wars, is univer- Z sally becoming. The round, dropped neck-line, wide W sleeve that flares or is
 caught into a tight band at
 the wrist the slim little fit-
 ted bodice and full skirt is a tvpe of frock that easily adapts itself to the slim figure of today.
 A feature of this kind of costume is the blouse of coarse, open-mesh linen. exquisitely embroidered in the manner of the Russian and Rumanian peasant blouses. These are coming more and more into vogue and prophecy a great revival of this type of blouse in the spring and summer. Worn with skirt of twill or heavy crepe in the dull blue or henna tones of the embroidery, and a little tight bodice ending in narrow shoulder straps, it completes a costume of universal chic and is far smarter than the more ordinary blouse of sheer material.
 A Frock for the Tea Hour
 The frock pictured to-day is charm ing rendering of an Old World style combined with the most modern of de- tails and Is very usable and smart. Of soft crepe in two shades, it is just the thing for the tea table on a winters afternoon. Deep rust color crspe that has firelight tones in its folds makes the skirt, which, in spite of it's fullness, manages to preserve the slim silhouette. The longer side panels and Jenny sleeves establish 1t at once as of the mode, and
