THINKING TOO MUCH

at is the hardest thing in the world" said
A mother, the other day, ito know exactly
what to say to a child to have the right
effect in after life. All my life | have suf-
fered because those who might have eX-
planned things did not do it. As my
daughter old enough 10 understand
words. told her to come to me always and
ask about things she could not understand.
And now she WON'T think things out for
hCrself-Calmy leaves ii all to me-"
This is rather hard mother who wants
TO be fair to her child
So frequently was the idea bourne in on the
chids consciousness. that mother would
explain" that now the child makes no effort
whatever to think do things for herself.
1t might have been better II the thought
impressed on the child had been, make every
effort you can, first. and then ask the Lord
10 help you. If you are in earnest, maybe
lie will let me help you in answer to your
prayer"
Children should be taught to use their own
gray matter.
Not all children have it so easy as the one
mentioned.
IL is perfectly logical to child to take all
IL can get easily. but If II wants thing
nara enough it will work for It, and that is
the spirit TO cultivate

John MCSparran. OF the Pennsylvania State
niahsc' Is taxing whack at the school sys
tenn of Pennsylvania. lie particularly obiects
10 me larger amount OF money spent on the
state educational machine and the useless and
unnecessary supervision of the local schools

county superintendents and local school direc.
tors nave become mere clerks and messenger
boys TO carry out the orders issued at the
State capita-and that in consequence the
best men are losing interest in the mana ge.
ment OF school affairs. Now, this is what
MCSparran says, and he is talking about con-
ditlons in Pennsylvania. But we ina gine that
several million other men in other States are
thinking along the same lines as they audit
their tax bills this summer-are thinking that
they are paying too much for unnecessary

Curb Supreme Court

q ECRETARY HOOVER recently
- said that the working of child
~ labor in some of our States is
a blight on the country worse than
war.
He is right. But it is a blight
which the country through the
normal functions of its institutions
would have abolished ten years ago
if the United States Supreme Court,
travelling. outside of it's powers in
violation of the Constitution by
usurpation of authority, had not
struck down the act of Congress
which was aimed at the employment
Of child labor in the backward
States.
Mr.. Hoover's remedy is a Consti-
tutional amendment. Senator La
Follette's remedy is a permanent
method of keeping the United
States Supreme Court within its
Constitutional limitations.
We agree with Senator La Fol
lette that a method can be devised
by which the Supreme Court will
be left absolutely free from any
political influence on matters strict
ly judicial and can be made to keep
its hands off political questions.
We do not helieyo II ,p;eo or ,ofo
to confide to Congress, as Senator
La Toilette suggests, the power to
overrule a Supreme Court decision
declaring law unconstitutional. in
the same way that Congress can re-
enact law over Presidential veto.
Today the Supreme Court acts
as the House of Lords used to act
in England. 1t puts the brake on
and often locks the wheels of
progress by destroying progressive
laws which Congress passes. The
courts of none of the great coun-
tries OF the world have any such
power. We have no real democracy
so long as nine nice old gentlemen,
appointed for life, are permitted to
exercise such an absurd power.
The necessity of getting a Con-
stitutional amendment every time
majority of these gentlemen do
not like the politics or the sociology
of a law is, in other countries.
unnecessary and entirely contrary
to the spirit of our democracy.

You Can t
Teach Horses

EyOU can teach men, not horses,
or rather men can teach
themselves and horses cant.
That's why horses remain horses
and men go forward. A few years
ago horses were afraid Of automo-
biles, afraid of steam cars. They
pay no attention to them now. And
when Mr.. William Meehan recently
rode from Indianapolis to Chicago
on an old-fashioned, high-wheeled
bicycle the horses that wouldn't
have noticed him in a snorting,
blazing automobile, attempted to
climb the trees.
Once upon a time you could say
that alcohol was worse than to-
bacco, drugs infinitely worse than
alcohol. Now between alcohol and
drugs there is little choice.
Robert Burns, having taken too
much cocaine, undressed himself in
the street and proceeded to show
how easy it was to shave perfectly
with a piece of broken glass. He
went to the hospital.
Daniel Ury bought homemade
whiskey and devoted himself to it
from nine in the morning until four
in the afternoon. Then he became
absolutely blind. He went to the
hospital, will never recover his
sight, probably will die.
1t is announced that Pittsburgh
contains 5000 drug addicts. Unfor-
tunately for the drug victims their
case is hopeless in at least ninety
times out of a hundred. A victim
of alcohol may swear off and. be-
come sober. The victim of drugs
rarely conquers himself

ONWARD AND UPWARD.

CHEER up friends, the world Is grown
~ More attractive day by day;
Men and women keep on showing
Tendencies to 60 astray;
Thieves and thugs are busy killing
Decent people, as Of yore;
Profiteers remain unwilling
To cease wanting more and more;
Clothes and food keep getting dearer,
But the outlook's growing clearer
The Millennium is nearer
Than it ever was before.
THEY are putting higher duties
l. On the things the people need
Still the world gains newer beauties
As we patiently proceed;
Dempsey. Tilden and the other
Champs are adding to their fame:
Be of good cheer, friend and brother,
We excel at every game;
Frequently the ways are hilly,
Jack is vain and Jill is silly.
Nights are growing long and chilly:
Llfe's worth living, all the same.
DACIAL hatred and dissension,
IL Ignorance. and lack Of coal,
But the bishops. in convention,
Take a whack at birth control:
Howling mobs become unruly,
Rascals active everywhere;
Flappers reckless, and unduly
Anxious to cut off their hair;
Superstition, desolation.
Bigotry and syncopation,
Gouging, grating, and starvation
But high courage here and there.

as follows: Government bonds, SlS7000:

1t was ultimate and indivis-
BILE. 1t was called atom" be-
cause no one could divide 1t.
There was nothing smaller into
which 1t might be divided.
These atoms were grouped to-
sether into molecules, and these
molecules composed matter.
Water, for instance, is com.
posed Of molecules. and each
Of these molecules is made up
Of two atoms Of hydrogen and
one Of oxygen.

from Santa Claus to which child
hood is normally entitled, has for
mulated plan by means Of which
it is intended this year to guarantee

At a special meeting held last
night in the Legion club room a
committee was appointed to organize
a series of entertainments and stunts
designed to raise the necessary funds
to carry out the plan. Ned Allen,
vice-commander is chairman Of this
committee.
The first entertainment promised
is community dance to be held
after Thanksgiving. After this event
there will be something on the card
almost continuously till the advance
men of the children's patron saint
announce Santa Claus on his way.
The public will be invited to all
the different functions, Chairman

URGE TRIAL FOR
'EMPQR|A SAGE
Governor Allen Takes Hand In Free
Speech Case With Author of 4
Henry and Me-; Would
Move to Supreme Court.

Topeka, Kan, Nov. 1S.-Governor
Henry ]. Allen personally took a
hand today in an effort to hasten
a decision on his public dispute with
his pal, William Allen White over
free speech in Kansas.
A suggestion was made TO the
state attorney generals office and
counsel for the Emporia sage that
the matter which resulted in Whites
arrest for defying his brain-child
the state industrial court by post
ing placards expressing sympathy
with striking shopmen, be taken to
the supreme court Immediately by
agreement.
Gov. Allen said he expected re-
sponse today. The move was made
after the attorney generals office
in letter to officials at Emporia
expressed desire to dismiss the
case against White on the grounds
that a fair test was not provided.
White here last night had a long
visit with Governor Allen, but their
public differences were not dis,
cussed, the executive said.
White declared the case would be
dismissed only over his vigorous
protests.
