AN EXILE FROM BOYLAND.

Here's another infant prodigy. 12-year-
old boy enters Columbia university, years too
young. Or put it the other way, his mind is too
old for his body. But that's only part. He says
he will finish his university course in two and
one-half years. Four years is the time for
average good minds. If he does it he will have
made worlds record even for prodigies, his
professors say. Poor little boy; sopping up
book learning like sponge and losing his won
derful boyhood. Digging and cranfning his
little young-old brain with intellectual gems
and junk when he ought to be hotfooting it with
other high spirited lads in a lively game.
, Fun? He doesn't know it. He is an exile
from Boyland. He is little old grind whose
books must be his friends because he is out
of his own class and can't chum with the 20
year-olds with whom he is thrown He would
like to play football but Only weighs SO pounds.
1t isn't his fault he's prodigy But being one,
what does it get him besides exile and loneli-
ness? Where are all the other prodiges that
have surprised the world for a day since you
can remember? They don't seem to amount to
much over a term of years. Probably their
brains slow down after awhile and let their
bodies catch up. After which they are just
commonplace like the rest of us.

UNIQUE OFFICIALS

DR.. Baltasar Brum may yet make Uruguay
famous. You may remember Uruguay. You
had to learn its name in the geography lesson
on "other South American countries" and it
was easy to remember because it sounds so
much like Paraguay, which is close at hand
But DR.. -Brum became president of Uruguay
some time ago. He has been doing startling
and sensible things from time to time since
taking office. Not long ago he asked the
people of uruguay to abolish his job # they
pleased He expressed the belief that most Of
the troubles of Latin American republics arise
partly or wholly from plots of ambitious men
who want to be president Therefore he would
have no presidency but an executive commits
sion instead. This would divide the honor and
the responsibility, and fewer men would take
it into their head 10 blow up buildings and start
revolutions to get jobs on the executive COM
mission.
The finances Of Uruguay are in unsatisfac-
tory condition, and DR.. Brum is of opinion that
the country can stand no more revolutions He
also favors disarmament, and is carrying out
his disarmament theories very successfully. II
the Latin-American republics could count
upon a reasonable supply of statesmen of Dr.
Bruins type there would be no necessity for
abolishing presidencies.

under way to open 20 more disorderly joints in
Rock Island to help strengthen the underworld

Had The Argus not undertaken its campaign
against protected lawlessness and corrupt
government within two years the underworld
government would have grown so rich and
powerful that it would have been invulnerable
to public attack. That government last July
had become sure of its strength and immun-

! The Argus believes the women are going to

county election And they should. The women
/, are the real sufferers from the conditions that
have been disgracing and terrOrizing Rock

leave it to the men to determine who to be
/ the officials Of Rock Island county the next
1 four years. The women have the full fran
chise, a privilege they fought generations to
attain, and they would be false to their trust if
they neglected to make use of it in such crisis
as has been confronting their home city and

Zone Of the earlier signals Of the
approach Of old age is the -insfdi-
ously growing fondness for place
close to the fire, q chimney corner
nook, and other forms Of coddling.
The metabolism slows down In
elderly individuals, the combus-
ton process or vital fire languishes
or shoulders, the system absorbs
less oxygen, and the individual
finds 1t more difficult to keep nice
and warm. In youth, when the Vi
tai fire burns briskly and metabol-
ism is top hole, why, the only prob
lem is to keep cool and we'll; but
the old folk, with a lower speed of
metabolism, practice all sorts of
receptions and employ all sorts of
arifices in the attempt to keep
warm.
Now what really is the right Of
this: Do the old folks sit about and
avoid physical activity because
they are poorly" and haven't an
active circulation and can't stand
the cold weather? Or are these en-
feeblements due to the bad habits
old folk acquire Of sitting around
and neglecting the opportunity to
get theiT daily oxygen on the hoof!
Does the fire burn low because the
