"CRABBED AGE AND YOUTH :"

Bitter complaints are frequently
heard concerning the intolerance of
youth, but is there not also an intoler-
ance of age that should likewise be
scensured? Shakespeare wrote:
"Crabbed age and youth
Connot live together"
Youth and age do of course live to-
gether in perfect harmony but not
when youth is characterized by ir-
reverence and flippancy or age by
that all pervading sense of wisdom
which is continually seeking to bring
TO bear its weight of years and ex-
perience. Occasionally some sage re-
marks that he has just put young
man in his place, "just told him a
thing or two" Probably the youth
was in need of counsel but words of
wisdom coming from an understand
ing heart will have much more effect
tthan a surly rebuke ungraciously ad-
minstrel. Intolerance is not be-
coming in any individual, young or old
Whether We grow in wisdom with
years would certainly seem to depend
somewhat on the manner in which we
react to our experiences. If bitter
ness, hate and jealousy creep into our
souls as the years roll by, we may
lind ourselves less capable of thinking
clearly and rendering a just decision
than the immature youth who is
blessed with enthusiasm and optimism.
No, it seems that Shakespeare was
right and so let US not allow age to
become Grabbed.

OUR RED CROSS NURSE.

A little more than year ago the
Mile Laos County Red Cross associa-
ton placed a public health nurse in
CHS county. During, the past year this
nurse has worked most industriously
and conscientiously, fulfilling the du-
ties of her office. To her credit let it
be said that she has labored effectively
although the way has not been alto
.gether smooth and the task has not
been easy. No woman who did not
have an unusual amount of pluck
and enthusiasm could have made a
success of the work.
Our Red Cross nurse has given
'cheerfully all her time and energy to
our service and how have we respond
ed? Have We given her the co-opcra-
ton that she deserved? If not, let us
turn over a new leaf and show her
that the people of Mile Laos county
are not ingrates. Let us not split
hairs over fine points but be big
enough to view her work from dis
'tance where we can get true perspec-
tive and then let us be generous
enough to give her full credit for that
which sic has done.
The nurse probably has given us
more than we deserve but she has
done this because she is interested in
the work and also because, being a
young woman, she has a reputation to
make in her profession. Besides con-
Quoting physical examination of the
children in all the schools, taking IA
children to Minneapolis to receive
free medical treatment at the Uni
versity dispensary, organizing the
child welfare board, teaching nursing
In number Of women's clubs, making
arrangements for holding children's
clinics, assisting in organizing parent
teacher associations, she has made
calls at hundreds Of homes. In some
of these homes where there was sick
ness the nurse has made daily visits
performing homely duties for the COM
fort of both patient and the family.
In Princeton she has co-operated with
the charity committee of the Civic
Betterment club and has been of much
assistance in furnishing them with in
formation concerning the needy.
Our county nurse has made a splen-
did record and her work has been high
ly commended by the Public Health
and the Red Cross committees.

Joseph W. Fordney, speaking of the
bonus bill before the Wholesale Lum-

the truth when he said, "You men sit

madly and marched with them to the
depot. And you didn't go a d. step
further. Suppose Germany had won
the war. What do you think your
taxes would have been? They would
have been 20 times more than the
bonus" This was enough to make the

BY testimony intro duced before the
house interstate and foreign COM
merce committee it was shown that
American people invest annually
about $5O,000,O0O in gold bricks, Wild
cat mining and oil prospects and other
get-rich-quick schemes. A ''blue-sky'
law has been favorable reported as a
result of this investigation. Congress

club. Since the Times has dragged
the matter into print we will take oc-
'casion to make . few statements.
The manager of the Northwestern
Telephone company last summer
asked the Union to entersa bid for the
printing Of the directory. We refused
to do 50 because there was provision
in the contract requiring the directory
to be completed within specified time.
Our printing department was then
jammed with work. We had more or
ders than we could fill in the next
three or four weeks and we could not
therefore agree to take more work for
that period. The Princeton Union
does not take contracts it cannot full
fill.
The Times entered bid on the
directory, did the work after fashion
but not within the time specified in
the contract. We heard considerable
|criticism of the first directory from
printers in neighboring towns but the
general public appeared to be salts
fled. ~ T..
Last December when we made in
quiries concerning the next directory
that was to be published, we were in
formed by the manager Of the tele-
phone company that the contract let
last May covered three publications
of the directory and therefore no bids
could be considered until December,
1922. /.
Then the second directory printed
by the Mile Laos County Times ap-
peared and the fun commenced. It
is seldom that poorer piece of work
manship is ever inflicted on the
public. The printing is so poor that
many of the names and numbers are
almost illegible. The book was in
correctly bound, it being impossible to
read the numbers on some of the
pages without removing the staples.
1t is utterly useless to enumerate the
poor features of the directory. If the
copies sent to Princeton and the sur
rounding country are fair sample of
all the copies printed, comment is un-
necessary. The manager of the tele-
phone company himself pronounced
the directory an extremely poor piece
of work, so unsatisfactory that it
was doubtful if the company would
ever consent to have another of their
directories printed in a small shop.
If the Mile Laos County Times likes
to turn out that class of work and can
induce any company to accept it, ev-
erything will be lovely providing the
public that is being served offers no
objection. However neither the
Northwestern Telephone company nor
the Mile Laos County Times can be
