WHAT SUCCESS
DEPENDS UPON

Many people think that if they liv-
ed in some bigger place, the opportun-
tiles would be bigger. But as they go
on. they find that success does not
depend upon location. it depends upon
the individual. The bigger the place,
the more competition one has to meet
and one gets lost in the crowd.
As a general rule, people do best in
the environment that they grow up
in. The city boy becomes used to the
city ways, and is usually better off
to stay there and build up business
in the environment he knows.
Similarly the country boy becomes
used to country ways, and can adapt
himself to them better than to new
location. A multitude Of country boys
are doing we'll in country life today.
because instead of dreaming Of max
ing fortunes in unknown scenes, they
just looked around them to pick up
the good chances within reach.

PROGRESSIVE
LEGISLATION

The claim is frequently made that
the Republican party is opposed to
progressive legislation.
If you asked the women voters what
is the most progressive measure that
the American people have enacted for
the past few years, they would reply:
"The woman suffrage amendment"
What was the record of the two po-
litical parties on that amendment
While both parties co-operated to
put that amendment through Con-
gress, it is noteworthy that it had the
greatest difficulty in securing ratifi-
cation in the sure Democratic states.
The following states defeated it: Ala
bama, Georgia, Mississippi, Maryland,
South Carolina. Virginia, Delaware,
Louisiana, North Carolina. Every one
of those states is Democratic state
with the exception perhaps of Della
ware. which cannot be considered as
sure for either party.
The income tax amendment was
passed by Congress during President
Tafts administration, by cooperation
of both parties, the senate voting for
it II to 0. and the house voting for it
318 to IA. All the states but six rat
ileu ~. IOpuIdT eieCtlOn OF senators
was voted by cooperation of both
parties, the senate voting for it Ga to
"a. and the house by 238 to 80.
This amendment also had trouble
in getting through the Democratic
states. Those that failed to ratify
it were: Alabama, Delaware, Florida,
Georgia. Kentucky. Louisian, Mary
land, Mississippi, Rhode Island. South
Carolina, Utah. and Virginia. OF
these states. nine are usually Demo-
cratic. one Republican, and two are
doubtful.
Prohibition was put through by
both parties. the senate voting for it
~ to 8. and the house, by 262 to 1928.
1t will be thus seen that in these
great fundamental measures. which
the majority of the people regard as
progressive. the Republican party has
helped to put them through, and that
on woman suffrage and senatorial
elections, the Democratic states Of the
South were the principal obstacle to
ratification.

WOMEN'S
ORGANIZATIONS

The thing that has killed country
life for many families has been the
routine of women's work. The tolls
Of women have on the whole been
harder in the country than in the city
Yet the problems of country women
are not wholly solved even when all
the labor saving improvements are
put in. The routine Of doing the e
same thing day after day, Of long
hours of laborious toll, gets on the
nerves of many Of them. City life
with entertainments and more varie-
ty looks good to them. If their hus-
bands get discouraged with their own
business prospects, woman who is
fretting over those conditions may be
ready to urge him to pull up stakes
and quit the country home.
But if such people live in town
or neighborhood where the women are
well organized, they are likely to get
a different point of view. For a
host of such women, the regular meet
ing of the woman's club or the sew
ing circle or the ladies' aid society is
a bright spot in their routine. and it
colors their whole lives. The inter-
esting discussion of current themes,
the talks upon literature and readings
from good books, the pleasant social
life, the new friendships formed, send
many women back to the labors Of
sweeping and cooking and mending
with new feeling. They find out
that the country town is not a lone
ly place after all. They can see that
it gives better opportunities for
friendship. and broader life than
can be found in the average street of
the city. They discover that they
can I'VE wide horizons if they want
to.
E, ry country town needs organi-
cations that shall give the women
folks the social life that they need to
color the monotonous round of toll,
and shall offer them broader vision
Of life. We are glad to state that the
women folks of Julesburg are very
active in the several women's organi-
cations in this city, and are doing con-
siderable for these enriching expert
ences.

AUTOMOBILES AND
COUNTRY LIFE

From ten to fifteen years ago, the
country people were in a state of
great Indignation about automobiles.
The city folks came tearing around
the country roads. frightening the far
mers' horses and causing many acci-
dents. Many country folks then re-
garded automobiles as a curse, and
wanted them prohibited from using
the side roads.
Today the automobile is revolution
izing country life and is breaking down
its isolation. This modern technical
science is doing wonders to improve
rural conditions, and there will soon
be other developments just as help
full as automobiles have proved.

THE ARMY
AIR SERVICE

A committee reports to Secretary
Weeks that an alarming condition ex-
lists in the army air service, due to
shortage Of flying personnel and the
equipment.
Our people hate war. but if they
are going to have any army at all,
they must have modern army which
shall be good as far as it goes. An
efficient small army is necessary in
these troublesome times, to show the
world that the American people have
not become effeminate.
The air service will do a big share
of the work of the next war. and an
army without q good one will not be
worth much. The air forces need not
be large, but money enough must be
spent to keep it up to date and eff
cient.

Tn some states legislation has been attempted to suppress free dom of speech and of the press, and a disposition has been manifest to revive racial and religious prejudices and to destroy that spirit of na- tiooal unity and cooperation which is essential to the dispassionate dis cussion and consideration of the vi- tai problems which concern the lives and welfare of the people.
