"As regards washing the hands

MANY people. without thinking,
wash their hands under n running

which has ever attempted to stage a
children's exposition on the same
scale as a regular State fair. The
huge event will be held April to 16.
and II Is anticipated that there will
be not less than 10000 Children ex-
hibitors and $4,000 articles Of all
descriptions, made by themselves. on
display.
The exposition takes on a civic
character. being backed by the
board OF education and managed by
the Parent-Teachers' Association and
the Assistance League Of Southern
California. Back of the plan are two
primary motives: To present an edu
cational display OF the ingenuity and
skill Of children and to obtain funds
with which to carry on child welfare
work.
The idea originated in the mind Of
Robert r. Wells. general manager Of
the Assistance League and formerly
San Diego Exposition Special Events
manager.
To Be In Tent.
I'VE will put on the most novel
and biggest exposition Of the kind
ever staged in the country" says
Wells. Three Of the largest tents
in America, bigger even than the
largest circus big top have been
secured to house the exhibits.
"One OF the most interesting d.
visions will be the animal depart
ment. In which the youngsters will
display their personal pets. We ex-
pect to have a regular domestic
menagerie.
Everything conceivable that is
made by the schoolboy or girl,
either during school hours or in
their homes. will be shown. and
suitable prizes will be offered in
each division.
ITO make the affair doubly In.

Now that the primary is over we
pause to look at few Of the things
which it brought forth. One Of the
most noticeable features was the fact
of the lightness of the vote. The Re-
publicans polled about 40 per cent of
their registration in this county, while
the Democrats only about 33 per cent.
There are many excuses given but
only a few are feasible. 1t shows
that there are to few who have at
heart the good of their government
or they would get out and help selec
teir standard bearers. The right to
participate in government is the
greatest right we have in this country
and is zealously guarded by all laws
and rules of conduct possible. When
people treat it SO lightly we wonder
if they are deserving it.-Philippi Re-

NOT A LEG TO STAND ON

It is no longer question of pro-
hibition, but one of the answering
respect for law, feeling by which
every right-minded patriot must gov
ern his personal conduct. The valid
ity Of the argument is undisputable.
Those who attempt to justify their vic
lations of the prohibition laws by
belief that they ought no ito exist or
that they are too strict have not a
leg to stand on.-Ohio State Journal.

Industry and Finance

President Gompers Of the American
Federation Of Labor sends to The
New York Times a communication
on the strikes. The keynote of his
article is that finance and industry
are fundamentally opposed, and that
labor, meaning manual labor, should
control production. At least, that
is the deduction which seems to be
drawn properly from his letter. The
logical Ultimate of such proposition
is seen in the system of political &C.
onmy under which Russia has been
working lately, although it is the
general belief that Mr.. Gompers does
not approve Bolshevism.
Mr.. Gompers inveighs against pro-
fits, ignoring the fact that profits
are the wages of the eployer, just
as wages are the profits Of the en-
ployee. Each expects justifiably to
get from his effort more than he puts
in, and on that more he meets his
living expenses.
If annual labor were the only pro-
Queer, Mr.. Gompers would be with
out his salary, for his work-and he
is a deligent workers. in talking
and writing and supervising and not
in the occupations that produce the
horny hand.
The demand that labor control pro-
duction has an illVstration YIN the
coal mines to-day, where labor con-
trolls production and famine is threat
ened. Capital, which is only an
other name for property, cannot be
called into service without the ex-
pectation of profit, no more than can
labor be called upon without the ex-
recitation Of wages. Capital should
have it's profits and labor its wages,
They should work together with har-
mony based on mutual respect. But
for either to declare that the other is
unnecessary, alien and hostile is to
invite the present condition of Rus
STA. Our country has got along
pretty well by the cooperation Of the
wagepayer and the wageearner. 1t
would not only be foolish, it would
be practically impossible, to boycott
or ostracise the one or the other.

1t must always fight for progress

1t must never tolerate corruptions.
1t must be in sympathy with the

For Belington it must always stand

achievement Of the finest ideals, Of
every high purpose, of every enter
