Henry Ford Presidential Possibility.

Henry EOIu V7o1NAAAN
Does Henry Ford's candidacy for
the Presidency appeal to the masses?
We would say yes, and especially 50
with that element. who are disguised
with politics and feel that both OLD
parties have outIived their usefulness.
This element desires to see the gov
eminent conducted as a business
proposition in the interest OF indus
try, economy and simplicity. Ihey
seem to feel that Ford, if elected to
the Presidency, would apply to Gov
eminent affairs the same practical
business methods that has carried
him successfully in conducting his
private affairs. Ford employs an
army Of men and no wage has ever
been too high for those who were
able to render the service and give
value received. 1t is said that the1 e
are no soft berths at the Ford plant
aud every man is expected to put al
his energy in his work, and IS PAID
accordingly. There are no drones
and every man on the job earns ms
wage. There is no doubt but that
Ford's hold on the people is gaining
momentum every day and while ne
may not be able to land the Presl-
dency. to those who have presIden-
tial aspirations, his candidacy IS
cause TOR considerable worry anu
concern.-D Chronicle.

NEW LIGHT DUPLICATES DAY
LIGHT

The Sterner Studio is installing
one of the new Prekins "Hi-Power"
Twin Arc white flame Photographic
lamps, manufactured by PhOtogenic
Machine company, Youngstown, Ohio.
This lamp burns special carbon and
produces a snow white light ranging
from a very low to an extremely high
volume. 1t is powerful enough to
make motion pictures or snap shots
of babies and is unexce1led for big
groups. The light is a pleasing soft
white color duplicating daylight per-
fectly and making it possible to east
ly distinguish all colors in their true
tones. 1t imparts healthy color to
the person being photographed which
is great improvement over the
CHASTITY appearance which some of
the artificial Photographic lights pro-
duce. There is no binding flash but
a steady soft cool light which is very
pleasing to the eye and comfortable
to sit under. With this light Mr..
Sterner the proprietor says, "Our
studio will be independent of day.
light and we can make high quality
photographs rain or shine; day or
night" With the installation of this
lamp the Sterner Studio is making
good in their determination to use
only the best equipment available.

Such were the beginnings of the
republics present executive heads. A
glance at the biography of Congress
will but confirm the impression that
no privileged class dominates in seats
of government. Moreover, a review
of the country's every field of
achievement probably will show that
now, as aforetime, the race in to the
swift and the battle to the strong, re-
gardless of whether they were born
under golden or iron stars. one thing
there is that will keep a man hope
lessly down, and that is his hugging
the delusion that he is better than
his fellows, or nursing the idea that
all the world is against him. Not
even so bountiful a democracy as
America can make successes of such
failures, or after the primal truth,
HE that tilIeth his land shall have
plenty of bread; but he that follow
eth after vain persons shall have pow
erty enough"
Hard work, common sense, good
character, and good will find their
rewards today not less but more
readily than in the nations earlier
years. Destructive radicals who
teach otherwise and declare the con-
stitution outworn, do but prove their
ignorance or else their infamy.-At-

After the Civil War, in which he
served in the Union army, he was
agent and later superintendent OF a
New York steamship line. Then he
went into the publishing game, as
publisher of the River Falls Press.
From here he went to one of the Mad
ison papers as proof-reader. His Ven
ture as publisher of the Wisconsin
Farmer proving unsuccessful, he went
into the grocery business.
In 1897 Mr.. Merrick was appointed
chief accountant for Wisconsin uni
velsity and held that position for Is
wears. He retired from business lie
in 1913. In 1919 he suffered stroke
Of paralysis and has been confined to
his bed ever since.
Mr.. Merrick has compiled volumes
Of statistics regarding steamboat life
on the Mississippi, and his writings
include the names of the old packets,
their captains, the most prominent
liver tragedies, and hundreds of in
teresting incidents of the old river
days.

NO TRUTH IN 1T

Oscar Gilbertson, Martell politician
is quoted by the Ellsworth Record as
sayink that there is no truth in the
rumor that he is to be named as con
didate for the Assembly when Hanson
steps OFT with loftier aims.
But the Record goes on to say that
much can happen in the IS months be-
tween now and election time, infer
ring perhaps that Gilbertson has yet
to receive his "call" from machine
headqu jlters. ''In the meantime, y
concludes Bro. Halls editorial, ''let
US talk of pleasant things"
The Spring Valley Sun says that
"Gilbertson would be "a shining light
in our present Assembly,
Bros. Halls also states that Skog-
mo will never again be a senator
from this district, statement which
G.. B. himself made some time ago
so there appears to be harmony or
one point in Pierce county's politica
outlook anyway.
