Locked at from a certain point Of
view, the present railroad strike is a
mere juggler's game a joke on the
public, which is not connected with
either Of the contending sides. The
railroad companies were guaranteed by
congress an income Of per cent on
their stock, which in view Of the water
contained in it mean practically 10 per
cent average on the actual investment
Why should the railroads under such
conditions worry whether the service is
maintained or not p? As far as they are
concerned, they might just as well see
operations stopped for the whole year,
provided only their income is guaran-
teed. Uncle Sam is their protector
and is paying them a profit even on
their watered shares. On the other
hand. it is possible that the union will
die of overexertion when it attempts

that, behind her own little air Of
bravado she carried an aching heart
that never could be glad again with

hot tears and entered the car with
dash of autumn red in her cheeks.
Some one moved along TO make room
for her, a strong hand Steadied her as
the car lurched forward.

smiled mechanically at-Bnly Drake,
vesuming his seat beside her The
wrap settled lnnocently about her
slender form. Billy was replacing his

Ing the back of his sleek head She
saw it all-she knew it-she felt him
so near and all the while she sat
straight and small. looking straight

The Capture of
Billy Drake
By ROSE MEREDITH


g, 1922. by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate.
Elizabeth viewed the blue wrap
with some disfayor. Ii had been
bought weeks ago, when her engage
ment to Billy Drake had been the
newest and the most wonderful thing
In the world, and the long silken
fringe which bordered the wide
sleeves had persuaded her TO decide
upon the garment. Billy had admired
its graceful lines-he had played with
the fringe as he talked of their glori-
ous future together-the had laughed
like children over the various things
that the fringes ensnared, autumn
leaves, wisps of flying paper, once a
downy feather from some passing
bird. And then, afterward, when
foolish misunderstanding had clouded
everything Elizabeth had pulled off
her ring-his rlng-and dropped II
into his reluctant hand.
The ring fell and, dropping, the
delicate setting caught on the wretch
ed fringe! He had laughed grimly as
he set about it's dislodgement.
u hate the old thing" she half
sobbed. as she brought II from the
wardrobe and tossed 1t about her
shoulders. The day was cold and her
suit was rather light in weight for
the advancing season.
Outside, the wind was moaning
among the bare branches, and as she
walked briskly toward the trolley car
the heart of the little music teacher
felt bleak and bare as the empty
nests in the swaying trees.
AS the car moved on Elizabeth
thought of the unlnteresting lesson,
she was going TO teach-Annie Smith
a child who had insisted upon learn
mystic play Hearts and Flowers
and there had been many, many les
sons, but Annie still stumbled over
the same passages until Elizabeth
was ready to cry with vexatlon
Today Annie was more exasperating
than usual; she had limited that her
mother was not pleased with her prog

RAILROAD and mine owners, the ma
jority at least, happy in the knowledge
that they can easily make up their
strike losses by overcharging the public,
are quite likely using this strike as
weapon in their crusade against unions.
And the miners; well they are mislead
by a set Of Idle, grating spokesman.
Some plain talk by the President to the
whole outfit, owners of coal mines and
railroads in particular, would be wei

THE itch for public Office must be a
most terrible affection. Itching of
course results in scratching, scratching
results in sores, and sores provoke an
tipathy and nausea among the voters.
Ia it strange that these perpetual office
seekers fail to realize this ? Further,
is it strange that these same seekers, y
who tire of one Office and become slack
and neglected., or have proved them
selves incompetent, have the brass to
ask the people to vote them into some
other office and generally one requiring
more efficiency and stability. No, no;
II is not strange, because audacity and
laziness are the foundation stones of
their individuality. During the last
week or two the citizens of Iowa coun-
ty have been pestered by two seekers
of this kind to sign their nomination
papers that they may get their names
in the Republican columns of the pri-
mary ballot Can't you guess them
out, or have you been sleeping the last
few years
This doesn't apply to a person seek
ing an office he held before and filled
the position creditably.

IT was announced to the country
about the middle of last week that
gasoline had dropped two cents per gal
ion, as a result of proposed sitting by
the government for the cause of the
recent unreasonable rise in price of
gasoline when the surplus of that com
modify was never before so great. II
asked who put this sitting business on
wheels, you must say Senator LaFol-
lette if you wish to adhere to truthful
ness. Gasoline is the elxer of out
door life for some ten million American
families. What we think Of grafters
cannot be expressed in any other than
Satanic language.

ACHIEVEMENTS OF ADVERTISING

Interesting story of how previously unadVertised
food product pushed to a wonderful expansion
is given in Printers Ink. The story related to the
irand of sausage which had become very favorablv
known.
Last fall, however, these people were persuaded
to undertake publicity campaign. The entire ser
les OF advertisements assembled in portfolios
levcn statesmen drilled in every detail of
he campaign and sent out to secure dealers who
would handle the stuff, and in IA days they secured
1852 The effect of the publicity was marvellous
80 many orders came in that the concern had to
SHUT OFF the advertising temporarily, until they
could make new manufacturing arrangements
Now genral campaign for national distribution
is to be undertaken and this business will become
widely known Such results show how carefully
the modern public watches advertising. The pub
lie interest in advertising is mine of possibilities
into which any cnterprising business man can
delve, ard turn in his direction stream of golden
nuggets of trade
Such an instance shows what mistake peoplc
make when they think they are up against certain
limits Of trade that can't be expanded A more ac-
tive policy will broaden out the territory and in
tensiiy the interest in any line, and bring in many
new friends who previously knew a business only

In old fashioned rural life the weather PLAYED
tremendous part in daily life People studied
the clouds much more then partly TO forecast farm

conflicts of the clements seemed like kind of ,lra-

play at a theatre. Eccentric superstitions nat.
uraly grew out of this interest, like that of the
ground hog.
This wise little beast known as the woodchuck
IN many sections maintained a perpetual feud with

with Jolly defiance OF traps and shotguns. The
faster he ate the family vegetables, the more he
reused the sporting instincts OF the young crowd.
Many night the farm kids would lie awake plan
ming how they could catch this elusive rascal.
They smoked him out they beseiged his holes
Nth dogs they laid clevery concealed traps in the
dirt of his safe retreat. But he always seemed to
have several back entrances out of which he could
safely emerge While he was supposedly being

PRACTICAL RURAL PROGRESS


and other people often say that it is very easy for
newspaper writer's to sit down in their comfortable
offices, and tell the folks who are up against the
actual problems OF rural work, what they ought to
do to improve things Particularly at the pres
ent time when the farmers are encounterinp cx-
ceptional difficulties owing to low food prices
Yet anyonc who watches the advance that many
country towns have made in the past 10 years
must have been impressed with the results that
can be accomplished by small group of men, or
even by single individuals, who are determined to
improve their product service
Such people may or may not have any education.
Usually such men have had some advantages, for
good school training greatly improves a persons
chances IN life. But often they are men who have
had Int little schooling, and they may be rather
iltcrde.
Yet people OF this type are constantly working
Tor superior attainment. If they are stock grow
ers, they are constantly improving their herds If
they raise crops, they get the best seed and are
the most Industrious and watchfu in cultivation
