The central record. (Lancaster, Ky.) 18??-current, 1922-04-27

A school board recently ex-
PEELED a girl student because
she used talcum powder on her
nose. A Judge expressed the
opinion that the school board
was unjust, and regretted that
the law did not allow him to
interfere.
Wise Judge. Foolish school
board.
Many men have greasy and
unsightly noses, but women do
not exclude them from their
homes for that reason. They
put up with the grease for the
sake of the inner man.
Greasy noses are not pleas
ant to see. and women do not
care to have them.
If talcum powder helps, why
deprive them of its use?
Dollars for fiction, but not a
cent for truth
That is the mental attitude
of some people. They spend
their time and their money in
developing blood and thunder
novels, but never read a line
in the Bible.

A doctor held in his hand a

poison. He sat il down and

Just then his phone rang
and he deposited the water
glass by the side of the one
containing the mercury.
Upon returning from the
phone he took a drink-from
the wrong glass.

When doctors become so
thoughtless they kill themselves

THE PRINCIPLE INVOLVED.

Every argument that can be used in favor OF
protective tariff is argument in favor of the posi-
ton OF Kechikan saving for Alaska the American
business instead of permitting it to become per-
manent asset OF a foreign town towns In addi-
ton to that every argument that be used in favor
OF saving for Americans trade the trade
between American points in American goods, is also
an argument for the position of Kechikan.
Ketchikan is endeavoring to make Alaskan towns
markets American fish caught by American Usher
men in American boats for the American trade. The
principle behind this endeavor is exactly the same as
that behind coastwise law which holds for Ameri-
shipping the traffic between American ports 1t
is principle that recognized by the United States
more than 100 years ago when the coastwise trade
laws passed 1t is principle that Canada has
recognized incorporated in her laws. If the stua
reversed there is hardly doubt that Canada
would quickly do for a Canadian town what Ketchikan
is asking that the United States do for her and other
Alaskan communities

ganized labor's right to strike, even with the
substitution of some other remedy for alleged
labor grievances. But on the other hand, espe-
cially IN our fundamental industries, it takes
a radical labor man intellectually to affirm
that the right mentioned is just as absolute as
an individuals right to strike work As
matter of industrial equity we instinctively
recognize that such right, exercised by great
collective bodies, must be conditional 1t must
be limited, simply because it is morally limited
and bounded by other and vitality connected
rights. especially by the paramount right Of the
collective consumer-of the ultimate employer
of both labor and capital in each big industry
to exist and to be dealt with in good faith by
the powerful agents OF production whom he,
the consumer, has permitted to grow so great
on the implied assumption that highly organ
lied production was to be for the public good.

College Simplicity.

The older colleges, instead of having to bid
for students, picking and choosing from
waiting lists The result properly is being re-
Elected in higher scholarship standing and
somewhat stricter moral discipline While
Princeton has not 1egislated the automobile
out of college, President Hibben has asked par
ents not to supply their sons with cars. His
reason is not that some boys have to work
their way through college while others have
their private limousines and liveried chauf
feurs, but that it would be desirable in the
light of conditions in this country and in the
world if students of Princeton during the
formative period of their lives could realize
the value to themselves and their fellows of
simplicity in living and of the elimination OF
unnecessary expense. This is sound reasoning
and not open to the charge of cant and hypoc
risy. healthy college boy needs car to
about the same extent that he needs an air
ship. Nature gave him two good legs to walk
and run with, and the more he. uses them the
better will be his health and the greater his
happiness. The automobile can wait until the
necessity of hurry incidental to professional
and business life demands it.

Bird Protection Pays.

The migratory bird act is having the desired
effect The act not only forbids shooting wild
birds during the migratory periods but for
bids holding the bird game in cold storage be-
yond certain date after the open season. The
law has been enforced fairly well in most
places. Violators have been punished prompt
ly and shooting out of season has been gen
orally stopped. Natural wild life has had a
chance to recuperate, and a number of birds
recently in danger of determination are now
increasing rapidly. When protective measures
of this sort are proposed there is often opposi-
ton from both market hunters and sportsmen.
Yet it has nearly always been found that, under
proper regulation, there is better hunting and
steady supply Of game for the market in sea-
son instead of a growing scarcity and ultimate
disappearance of the wild life.

Barnum Was Right.

Representative Lanham of Texas does the
public good turn when ne stands up in con-
gress and turns current of laughter on Rep
resentative Ansorage for interlarding an extern
sion OF remarks in the Congressional Record
with the word applause The actual fact is that
Mr. Ansorage had one minute on the floor So
his speech was never delivered and the ap-
plause was imaginary.
But Representative Ansorage isn't the first
member of congress to do this. 1t is being done
continually. 1t is an effort to give the appear
ance of speech to the Part OF Congressional
Record" which is then sent out to constituents.
If it is a deception, it is no greater deception
than our so-called representatives practice in
their constant abuse of the leave to print"
evil. The country is taxed for printing it. just
as the country has been taxed for the time of
the secretary who got most of it~together; then
the country is taxed for the cost of sending it
free through the mails. Little OF 1t is worth
sending; less still is ever read. It's largely
sham But apparently We like it, for we allow
them to keep it MP.
