B. R. Riley, who opposed W. S.
Cawthon for state superintendent of
public instruction, announces that he
will seek an injunction to restrain the
state canvassing board from officially
canvassing returns of votes from sew
en- counties of the state where his
name was left off the ballot, providing
the other counties cast enough votes
to give him victory, when added to
the vote cast in the other seven. We
don't suppose such action will help Mr..
Riley, but the authorities of the coun-
ties that did not have his name on
their tickets must have been prejudic-
ed. The commissioners of Marion
found nothing wrong with his petition.

Have you fixed up a Thanksgiving
box for the homeless kiddies at the
Children's Home Society of Florida at
Jacksonville Daddy Fagg says that
if every family in Florida would make
a small donation of food to the society
there would be provisions enough to
last the home for the coming year The
Children's Home Society of Florida is
the greatest institution within the
borders of the state. 1t is caring for
hundreds of little, helpless children,
who would actually suffer if it wasn't
for the home Let's all send a little
box to the kiddies up there and help
to make their Thanksgiving dinner a
happy event.-Fort Lauderdale Her

So far as the Star is concerned, old
man Mcleod is welcome to come back
into the democratic party if he wants
to. Mac is an honest and kindhearted
old boy and really means to do right.
His little excursion into independent
ism has had no result except to dem
onstrate how useless it is for a man
to buck the democracy in this county.
He had less than half Meffert's vote,
but the entire element supporting
Mcleod cast their ballots for him,
while probably not more than half
Meff ert's friends went to the polls.

A good many Americans, in think
ing of Turkey, have the erroneous idea
that it is a small country with COM
raratively few people. A good look
at map and comparison with other
countries will undeceive them. Tur-
key in Asia comprises Asia Minor,
most of Armenia, Kurdistan and a
part of Syria. 1t is larger than
any European country, except Russia,
and has a population of at least TO-
100000, of whom 10000 900 are Turks.

All democrats will laugh at the de-
feat of Beveridge in Indiana. Bever-
idge was nominated for senator by the
Indiana republicans against an ad-
ministration candidate, and all repub-

granted he was going to be elected.
His democratic opponent, Ralston, a
very capable man, was hardly spoken
of outside his state. And now he
has put it over the famous Beveridge
in the most approved manner.

THE BABY SWIMMER.

Refreshing and instructive is the story
of the two-year-old baby in Sacramento,
Cal, that fell into a pond and swan
ashore. There is nothing necessarily
miraculous or mysterious about little
Velma's feat. Finding herself in the
water, wet and uncomfortable, she sim
ply obeyed her natural impulse to work
her hands and feet. 1t may have been
instructive swimming, and again it may
have been merely an infantile way of
expressing Indignation at such an out
rageous predicament.
Many man and woman who has had
the experience of rescuing small chill
drcn from drowning can testify that
they may keep themselves afloat for sew
eral minutes by splashing around in the
water, and the younger they are, the
more likely they are to be saved. A
grown-up who cannot swim will usually
sink quicker than a baby.
The cause is perhaps psychological.
The baby. though frightened, doesn't
know enough to be frightened to death
or knows too much, if you want to
put it that way. The older person may
. be paralyzed by fear, and so go down
like a stone. while the child expends its
energy in useful struggling
There may be some sort of evolution
airy influence working, too. No doubt
children used to start swimming much
earlier than they do now. Native chill
dren in the South Seas, where every
body swims, learn for themselves, says
Frederick O'Brien, and are seen swim
ming like frogs at the age of one year
Handicapped as we are in some ways
by our civilization, it is easier for a
white child to learn to swim than for a
grOwn-up. Moral: Start early. Teach
the children! to swim this summer.

NEWSPAPER AND POsTOFFICE.

Newspapers are to play a more vital
part in postal affairs than ever. Post
master General Work has ordered all
pOstmasters to send him clippings of
news items and editorial comment bear
ing on postal service. 1t offers a fine
opportunity to knock incompetent serv-
ice, but it is to be hoped that where
praise is merited it will be found re-
corded just as freely.
The postmaster himself will have lit
tie defense. He might use a derogatory
item concerning his own office to kindle
the kitchen fire, but some other post
master is just as likely to spot it and
send it ON. So the fate of the individ-
ual will hang on keeping the service at
the highest possible mark.
Like the telephone, the postofice is
really marvelously prompt and accurate.
It's mistakes are few in comparison with
the amount of business handled. All
complaint and comment should take fair
note of this. But any suggestions which
make for improvement should be well
coined, from the postoffice headquarters
at Washington to the grocery store at
the corners.

Listers Duties.
lRntland Herald l

Ludlow is faced with a peculiar stu
alton as the result of the recent town
election. First, a hOld-over lister re-
signs because he declares that he can
not serve for three dollars a day with
out such a personal sacrifice as he feels
unable to make at present Second, a
lister elected on the platform of raising
the valuation of the mill property in
town is faced by the necessity for max
ing good with the mills either running
on short time or shut down.
With a lister to be elected to take the
place of the resigned official and with
business as it is at present the dilemma
of the new board, whatever its makeup,
can be readily understood.
To begin with. the voters were prob
ably shOrt-sighted in reducing the com
penSatiOn of their listers from 81 to So
| per day in a year which calls for the
amount of work entailed by quadrennial
| appraisal, but it merely emphasizes
what the Herald has claimed in rela-
ton to the general public feeling re-
| garding expense-there must be a hori-
! zontal cut somewhere.
The platform of the new lister who
| promises to raise the lists of the Lud-
| low mills was probably well-meaning,
| but it would have sounded better. at
| least, if he had merely announced that
he would give his vote and influence to
listing town property according to law
|
uals nor corporations would be permit
ted to escape their just share of taxa
| ton.
Perhaps the lists of the mills should
be raised, but it is certain that other
| property should be raised accordingly.
/ There is probably not a town in Yer
mont where such a condition does not
exist-prObably not one town grand list
this year will be made out according to
| law.
The Herald believes that the listers
| elected in the various Vermont munich
palities are honest men, as honest as
they can be with the situation as it is
but the conviction is inevitable that
some state authority must be designated
before long which will have the right to
| review these grand lists and equalize
! them, town by town. without regard to
local pressure or prejudice.
Ludlow's problem is fundamental with
the problems of all Vermont towns
faced today with a largely increased
state tax and the absolute necessity OF
creating more revenue or going in debt
As the summer passes and the tax col
| lector looms up. economy clubs will be
almost self-starting.

a statement to that effect. Then if your

your intent, she, as rule, fails to cable
her objections and your marriage is an

The Kurn Hattin Homes at Westmin-
ster come into q bequest of $4,000
through the beneticence of woman
lately deceased at Hinsdale. n. II. This
amount ought to go far toward putting
the struggling institution on it's financial
feet and enable it to enlarge its scope
of usefulness to the young people. The
Kurn Hattin Homes is an institution
that has been dependent to a consider
able extent on the benevOlently inclined
public, and perhaps it will continue to
be somewhat dependent; but its prog
ress ought to be very much more as
sured by reason of the bequest.
