BE A GOOD SPORT

This is the time of year and almost any
hour the time of the day when every at
tractive shady nook close and far from the
highways becomes the site of picnic
lunch party.
Thanks to nature and in some cases to
kind-hearted owners, these spots are in
viting, clean, tidy-and SO the picnic folks,
when they toddle out of a motor car, shout
their pleasure at the discovery and take
possession. Too often a few hours later
these attractive spots are litter of lunch
boxes, plates, oiled paper, egg shells, sar-
dine cans and banana skins.
If nature or some person made the place
attractive for. you, why not leave it at
tractive for others who may follow? In
other words, why not clean up, burn up
the litter, taking care to extinguish the
fire before you leave, or collect the refuse
and cart it away with you to regular
dump?
Of course, if after dinner at home,
people should sweep the plates on the
floor, hurl the knives into the plaster or
leave the food debris scattered over the
table cloth, it is natural to carry such man
ners into the woods and onto the byways
Consideration for others is one of the
finest of human assets.

ROOSEVELT NEVER sWORE-

It has been said, less in Jest, perhaps,
than in earnest, that not even lying is an
easier habit to acquire than swearing.
George Washington could not stoop to the
one but he did stoop to the other Whether
a majority of men swear or not there is no
way of telling. But it is certain that there
are few men who have not used profand
language at some time or other, while
millions are addicted to it habitually.
It is of no little interest, therefore, to
learn from an apparently unanswerable
authority that robust as he was, and given
to emphatic language beyond perhaps any
other great person of his day and genera
ton, Teddy Roosevelt loathed and never
uttered profanity. A recent writer brought
this aspect OF the great Rough Riders
personality to the public attention by tell
ing an anecdote in which Colonel Roose-
welt was represented as "cussing" vigor-
ously. This was so violently in conflict
with the department of the real Roosevelt
that number of his friends Immediately
protested, Mark Sullivan leading off.
Lawrence f. Abbott, Clifford Pinchot,
Henry Cabot Lodge, and other close
friends of the colonel's corroborated Mr..
Sullivan unqualifedly, denying that he
ever used profane word, even under
what ordinary men would deem as great
provocation. On one occasion, out in the
Bad Lands Of Dakota, he went so far as
to brave being shot by rebuzing He'll Roar
ing Bill Jones in an insulting manner for
that desperado's blasphemous habits.
The only way in which the former
president can be conceived or believed
ever to have sworn is the same way Mr..
Abbott says in which Bishop Phillips
Brooks once swore. The bishop was fish
ing and hooked big trout, then lost it
after playing it half an hour and when
his guide involuntarily exclaimed ''That's
damned shame" the bishop said,
you're quite right, john" The country
will think none the less of "Teddy" be-
cause he was clean of speech. IF there
could be stronger proof than he that pro-
family is neither a mark of manliness nor
d requisite of emphasis, we cannot imagine
what it is. The revelation of the Roose-
veltian disgust for the practice is worth
a place not merely in his biography but
in the news of the day.

SUMMER RESORT GHOSTS

Long ago when the haunted house was
a favorite theme in fiction, the place with
such a reputation was avoided and when
anyone was compelled to pass it late at
night he did so in fear and trembling
But all this has now been changed and
the shrewd person who keeps summer re-
sort advertises in addition to boating, fish
ing, scenery, spring chickens and fresh
vegetables, that he entertains a ghost as a
permanent boarder. For ghost hunting
has become the most beguiling of summer
sports, and an enterprising keeper in a
Maine boarding house has just confessed
that she advertised an ectoplasmic guest
and published its picture, for which a hui
man boarder posed.
With the demand for haunted houses
such as it is, it cannot be expected that
even this confession of fraud will deter
boarders from focking to the haunted
house, for it is we'll known fact that
there is nothing so obliging as ghost and
one is sure to appear if only you are de-
termined to see it.

in YEARS GONE BY
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
(From The Silver State Files)
August 10. 1897

Three Wadsworth young ladies
decided to have themselves photo
graphed in a group. To make a
pretty and captivating pose, they
arranged themselves behind an out
spread newspaper which they were
APPARENTLY absorbed in reading. 1t
was not until the finished photos
were delivered that they notice the
most prominent feature of the
picture to be the bold headline of
a clothing ad in the paper running
clear across the top of the page
"Our Pants our Doubled Lined
The photographer has been pre-
vailed upon to destroy the negative.
In Montana sheep are sheared
by machinery propelled by water
power. California has new grain
harvester with cutting of 81 feet,
which reaps, threshes and sacks one
hundred and eighty bushels of wheat
an hour.
1t should be impressed on the
minds of our youth that earning
the bread by the sweat of the brow
does not necessarily mean working
the whole face.

THAT $4,000 FEE
(F'rom the Reno Gazette)

During the 1921 legislative session an
effort was made to have the state appro-
pirate the sum of $4,000 to be used by the
state engineer, Mr.. James G. Scrugham,
for the employment of special attorneys
in the Humboldt river water cases. The
legislature took the position that such le-
gal work should be performed by the at
torney general and his staff and rejected
that section of the water bill containing
this provision.
In the face of this the state engineer
proceeded to employ such special at
torneys, in the person of George b.
Thatcher, William Wooburn, f. l.. Nor
cross and their associates, and agreed to
pay them the sum of $4,000 out of the funds
provided for the investigation and ad-
Indication of water rights, and these
special attorneys have drawn large por-
ton thereof and are now drawing the re-
mainder in monthly installments.
The recently acquired Democratic state
organ, Tuesday devoted almost three
columns in an effort to explain away the
matter, to which no public allusion has
heretofore been made.
In spite of all explanation, however, the
fact remains that the state engineer, with
the approval of other state officials con-
tracted to pay state funds to the extent OF
$4,000 to special attorneys after the Ne
vada legislature had specifically refused
to authorize such an expenditure.

THE CLASS CANDIDATE

What of the candidate or political
crowd that goes after "class votes?" OBJ
serve that it doesn't make any particular
difference what the class is, just so there
are number of votes that may be gobbled
up. How can candidate or political
crowd be true to promises made to differ
ent classes if all classes are involved?
They cannot be unduly fayofably to all
classes, for such a thing is manifestly i'm
possible What one man will like the next
will hate. So it is well to look with sus-
picion upon such political activity. If a
candidate will use his influence, after cleo
ton, for the particular benefit of one class,
he'll use it for the particular benefit of an
other class whom the first class perhaps
knows nothing about. The sure way is to
support the man who favors the masses
rather than classes, for he is the man who
will bring ultimate good to all.

AND JIM REED WON

The latest returns from Missouri remove
apparently the last doubt in regard to
Rebel Jim Reeds success. The effort to
punish Reed for opposing the treaty and
the league and for his INSTRUMENTATION to
Wilson thus fails ANONYMOUSLY. The Dem
ocrats of Missouri make plain that they
have no more use for the league than Mr..
Reed himself had. They also hint unmis-
takably that they resent political dictation
from the old Wilson crowd in this year of
our Lord 1922, particularly when it takes
the form of campaign Of determination
against their senior senator in revenge for
his doing as they desired rather that as Mr..
Wilson wished in the treaty fight. And
that is precisely the result that ought to
have been expected. For the League of
Nations is even more distrusted today than
it was when H. G. Wells wrote of it in his
"0utline of History"
'There are few signs of enthusiasm
among the nations for the league at the
present time. 1t does not even seem to
know how to talk to common men. 1t has
gone into official buildings, and compare
lively few people in the world know what
it is doing there, or care"

 The stock market will not be better, except for possible spasmodic fluctu- ations of such issues as attract atten- tion.

 The industrial and mining situation hinges on the incoming flow of new money. Allother efforts to remedy the situation are hacking at the branches of the difficulty and are not giving water to the roots of indus try and trade.
 When the last administration was laboring under the delusion that all we had to do was to print money on our national credit to have plenty the country had a flood of new paper money, called federal reserve notes and with the impulse of all this new money coming into use, we had a whirlpool of money circulation and 8 perfect orgy of good times. While this paper money was really only promise to pay money, it was ac, i cepted as money, and therein it in. creased our promises to pay-debts- upon the same old assets we had al. ways had. In all business, the more debts we have the less our "papel promises" are worth, unless we in crease our assets. That paper money

Yale Col lege's classificatio nof the production as the worlds greatest motion pie ture, together with the endorsement it received from Arizona state off, cials when it played in Phoenix re- gently, has caused no end of comment, while the fact that press, pulpit and public the country over have praised it to the skies, has also created an indelible impression among local dis eliminating theatregoers.

 Mining will become more active. steadily and continuously throughout the year. By this statement l mean that legitimate development of gold and silver properties will increase. From the very nature of the mining business it is obvious that there is but one crop in any mine. There must be new properties developed to take the place of those which are now harvesting their crop. The crying need of the world for gold and silver is making demand that cannot be ignored. The conservation of mineral lands for posterity is a snare and de- fusion, for the metal produced is in destructible, and there is no reason why tn ework of getting it out should be saved for the future generations, who could use it just as we'll if the present generation put all the metal Tn the earth on top or the ground The fact that we use it in the present generation does not deprive the fu- ture generations of it's use.
 Strenuous efforts are being made by merchants associations and busi- ness clubs to keep the money circu- lating," but people with money will not circulate it unless it has chance to gather more. Nobody with any sense ever rolls a snowfall on barn floor. Money is like water, it will not circulate without an incoming supply Attempting to make it circulate with out the impact of flowing supply is as futile as attempts to make any other perpetual motion scheme circu- late without power. It simply can not be done.
