THE WEAK LINK

There was session" at the home
of a certain gentleman the other
night and among those present was
a married man who has charming
little daughter in his home. AS the
tickle goddess dallied first with one
and then with another of the wooers
of fortune, the hours of the night
sped and the cold gray dawn ap-
peared.
Still the ambitious seekers of for
tune dallied at the table. 1t was
breakfast hour when the party fin
ally broke up and this particular
gentleman finding the wife and
daughter in the dining room when
he arrived at home, tiptoed to his
bed chamber and taking off his coat
and unbuttoning his collar made his
way to the breakfast table in his
usual manner. He stood at his place
fastening his tie with all the ap-
pearance of innocence, intending to
convey the impression that he had
just arisen from nights sleep. He
was congratulating himself on his
cleverness when the little daughter
exclaimed: "Why, Papa, what yot
got your overshoes on for?"

WAR MEMORIALS

Henry j. Haskell, of the Kansas
City Star, in Worlds Work, says:
Every war produces its memori-
ais. A nations gratitude to it's de-
tenders naturally expresses itself in
permanent symbols. Their type
suggests the general culture Of the
period AS for instance the Civil
War statues that dot the country
the soldier on guard in cap and
cape; the ornate conventional shaft.
1t would be possible to write fairly
adequate commentary on American
cultural development from a study
of the statues and monuments in
Washington.
Zone of the important influences
in the artistic growth of the United
States in the next few years will be
the sort of memorials that will
commemorate the devotion of the
men who served in the World War"

CHILDISH FOOLISHNESS

"She doesn't speak to me-" eve
haven't spoken for year." Have you
ever heard such remaks? We know
people (but- they are darned few
who do not speak to each other
and yet they pass on the streets al
most daily. Oh, how silly. A long
time ago there was misunderstand-
ing, anger flared, and the hatred
words were spoken. Then came ST.
Ience. Two head strong, stubborn
days with their weight of sorrow
and work piled into years and the
gray hair crept over the sunny
tresses. Still the women plod on,
brushing their weary feet upon
stones in life's pathway and they
drop their eyes as they pass in ST
lence Two head-strong, stubborn
men has a difference over trifling
settlement and they turn away from
each other. The bonds of friendship
are broken and they never speak as
they pass by. Oh, the shame of it..
The world is so full of real trouble
and they pass in silence. Each is
making his fight against the heavy
odds of time. Each is surely stead
lily trudging on to the end of the
road that his stubborn will keeps
him from his old-time friend, and
they mass in silence. Life is too
short to spend in nursing grudge.
We all make mistakes and hurt each
other at times. But, let's forget it.
Make folks speak to you whether
they are mad at you or not, and af-
ter while they'll get over their mad
ness. Anyhow, you will have the
fun of laughing at the fool who
| won't forvige and forget.

It seems to us that the everlasting
moan that goes up from newspaper
men about the extreme poverty of
the editor is mighty tiresome
thing. One would think by what

that the newspaper business is a
sort of charity bureau and poor
farm combined.
A man who has tried preaching
and failed, secondhand business and

fonts of type and proceeds to adver-
tise his poverty. He takes any old
thing on subscription and poses as
the only unfortunate in the commu-
nifty. The painful part of the affair
| is that these misguided and un-
tutored mental deformities pose as
newspaper men.
The newspaper business-is just as
good as any business if it run right
However, no man can make success
in the newspaper game by eEerlast-
ing harping about his poverty. AT.
ter a time the people will begin tt
look upon his as an object OF charity
and not as a business man who pays
for what he gets and expects pay

part of itall is that these povert!
