CURRENT COMMENT.

New York Tribune: The return OF the
Turk politically to Europe would be a dra-
matte reversal Of what seemed to be ac-
complished fact 1t would rub the wrong way
all European and American preconcePuons.
1t would be crime against history. But ku-
rope is dealing now with strange phenome-
non. The Sick Man" OF the 10th century
was sentenced to death He did not die; He
was born again in heroic effort 1t IS there,
fore a disturbing moral as well as physical
problem with which the patchcrs-up OF the
is regenerated. But is he fit to come back
into postwar Europa good place to let
him come back into.

The Country Roadside.
From the Carrollton Free Press.

There is complaint OF the way many coun-
ny districts allow the weeds and brush to
grow along their roadsides. This gives an I'M
cultivated and wild appearance to the terri
tory, which may have certain rough pct-
uresQ ueness, but it makes a locality look TN
cared for.
A writer in the Indiana Farmers Guide
notes that il a roadside is moved three times
season for two years it will grow grass in
stead OF weeds. A mans land would look
so much better to be lined by strip OF grass
than by these tangles of weeds and brush
that ii would seem TO pay real estate. owner
to have this work done. If a man has any
thing to sell clean roadside is good adver-
Using.

She took great interest in promoting the

in this connection gave expression to views
that would be OF untold benefit to every

were followed. She said:
"A few minutes at the auditorium this

our own products is Just as high OF high
