voices and instruments enlivened the
praise service. They also contribut-
ed several special selections. After
brief address by Pastor Young, they
Joined most heartily with the Halo

GETTING RID OF LAME DUCKS

Lame ducks" will have hard time living off
the people they have misrepresented if bill in
trduced into the Senate by Senator c. c. Dill of
Washington passes Congress and becomes law.
Senator Dill's "Anti-Lame Duck Bill" as it is
called, provides that when a Senator or Represen-
tative has been defeated for reelection he shall
not be eligible for any federal appointment for
two years 1t is the peoples answer to the pract-
ice literally indulged in by the present admins
tration Of putting rejected representatives of the
people in responsible executive positions Thus
Senator New was made Secretary of the Interior,
Senator Weeks was chosen by the late President
as Secretary of War, and Senators Kellogg and
Pointexter were both honored by ambassador
ships after the people had turned them out Of
office.
EVERYBODY who still has faith in the fundament-
al principles of representative government will
back Senator Dills "Anti-Lame Duck" bill to
abolish the abuse of the appointive power in
awarding soft jobs to defeated misrepresent-
atives.

WATCH TODAY'S BUSINESS TODAY

A common fault in business organizations is
that of giving too much attention to getting
business and not attention enough to holding the
old ones. Too many organizations think that by
when, more often, they standing still. SINH
larly many an Individual is so interested in trying
to get the job of the fellow on the next ladder
rung above him that he forgets the chap below
who is after his scalp. If the present job or the
present customer, is handled we'll the future will
take care of ITSELF almost automatically.
"NoW is the time for all good men to come to

way?
There is no doubt that C. Bascom Slemp knows
great many things that would be of interest
to the general public, but there's doubt about
him giving over any of his private information
to any investigation. He is not as easily flushed
as some of the less experienced folks.
