presidents fine, and to have less fine
local politicians. we are making II
awfully hard for a president to fine
things" she said. political education
should begin with the A B G of poll
tics. 1t should begin right down low
and for many of US it should begin
right now"
Lady Astor was not so sure that
Europe needs Americas money. but
she was convinced that Europe needs
Americas moral heir.
I'm not concerned to say whether
the United States should join the
League of Nations as it exists; this
is a question of comparative detail :;
but l al convinced that America car
help Europe enormously in ways which
will commend themselves to all clear
ami kind thinking Americans if they
want to do so. l believe they do. They
need not fear to enter league OF
peace but had better fear not cntcri s
if they desire peace.
Hundreds of Americans must and
will find some way into a league.
America won't stand by and say
Europe is hopeless. She knows that
it's not the way to help either people
or nations. The hopeless cases are
just cases that need our help.
Now, / don't want to leave here
having said anything to hurt any
person or party. All persons and all
parties have been much too kind to
me. There's enough trouble in the
world to make one dread adding an
ounce to it. But / should like just
to say before leaving that I think
the politician who because Of lack of
principle feels that he must appeal
TO prejudice or hatred. class or ma
tional, or international, is playing q
losing game. They have missed the
new spirit. and l believe as firmly
as ever believed anything that there
is a new spirit abroad.
1T may be that this world war
has set us thinking. 1t may be that
women are the leaven in the lump,
but the politicians or parties who
think that they will win out on pre-
JUDGE or anti-British or anti-Ger-
man or anti-what you will, propa-
g1nda, are doomed to failure. A mind
that hates is mind which is sick,
and a mind which boasts of itself is
as a~frog which puffeth itself up.
Only the mind which is genuinely
out to help all humanity is the kind
of mind which deserves and will get
the support of all the right kind of
people.
Playing politics may be all right
when there is nothing seriously
wrong with the world. Just now the
human race needs human beings and
not boss politicians.
Quacks are failing all the world
over and fundamentals are winning
and the only safe policy for politi-
cans and nations is not do others
but to do unto otherJ as you would
they should do unto you"

Gardiner Adopts
Daylight Saving

Daylight saving was adopted by
the city council Of Gardiner, as a re-
suit of the meeting on Monday night,
Mayor Lamb and Alderman Moves
voting yea, and Alderman Russ vot-
ing nay.
The meeting was interesting and
at times wildly exciting, especially
when anywhere from two to a bak-
er's dozen were talking at once.
There was perhaps a hundred pres
ent, and by the vote taken at the
close of the meeting the new time
was apparently favored two to one.
Attorney Goodspeed was present
and represented the proponents of
the idea, though to our minds they
needed but little representing as
they appeared capable Of represent
ing themselves.
Petitions, yes, there We're petitions
galore. There was one from the r.
p. Hazard factory favoring, signed
by 400; another, the unanimous
opinion of the Gardiner Changers
with 207 members, against the adop-
ton of the new time; another signed
by many Of the merchants favored
the scheme; one was presented
against it, signed by 564. Among the
speakers were Mrs. +. Il. Bradstreet,
George Danforth, c. II. Beane, Lee
Chapman, Arthur Bubar, Mr.. Merrill,
Walter Colby, Harry Greeilaw. Ern-
est Wagner and John H. Thompson.
The arguments were as warm as
the room, and that was some hot
The decorators at the Coliseum be-
came interested, and lacked their job
for considerable time. The SUCCESS
ton that vote be taken was favor
ed by the mayor, and objected to by
Mr.. Beane. 1t was, however, taken
with the above mentioned results.
No date was suggested, on which to
go on the new time, ans as conse-
quence the sooner you set your clock
one hour ahead then the sooner you
will be with the procession. No
hard feelings; everybody be as good
friends as before, and be satisfied
that you have shown the courage of
your convictions.
