COVE COMMENTS
(G. A. Rsnouf)


l have been reading about the
blessed Islands Of the South Paci--
fic in a late number of the Geo
graphic, where you can live almost
without working. HOLSTERS 2 feet
long. All sorts Of fruit for the
picking, fish galore, and pigs for
the shooting. All spring and sum-
mer and no winter. Here in Wash
on we can and do work aplenty al
most without living, but perhaps
after all its case of the COW and
the next pasture. Anyway its too
late in the day to pull up stakes.
Things are happening in old
England when you see blue blood,
ed aristocrats like Lady Cynthia
Curzon, also the Duchess of War
wick adopting Socialism openly
and running for Pertinent on that
ticket. 1t is evidence that some
wealthy folks realize the inequity
of the present system. There is
something radically wrong in a
country where some million and Il
half people are in receipt Of Gov
eminent doles because there is not
enough work to keep them employ
cd. 1t is a thoroly bad condition
and excessive wealth and extreme
poverty cannot continue side by
side without coming to clash.
No sensible person wants to
see everybody come down to II
drab level but rather to see the
lower stratum of folks elevated to
a position of comfort and intelli.
gence with fair share of the
things that make life worth living.
The ideal state Of society would
be where everyone was rewarded
according to their ability. Equal

WOULD CHANGE METHOD OF
NUMBERING AUTO TAGS

A radical change in the method of
numbering automobile license tags
for 1925 has been suggested to Thad
I'll. Brown, secretary of state, and
has bech taken up for consideration.
With the number of autos in Ohio
having passed the million point, the
suggestion has been made by Sec
retary Brown that instead of using
six or more figures, a letter ap-
pear before the numerals. Each
county would have it's own letter
each year, with the license number
to follow this letter. Under this
plan no change would be made in
the letter and it would soon be an
easy matter for one to determine
the county in which the machine is
owned. Argument in favor of the
plan is that it would make the num-
bers smaller, giving method of
more prompt recognition of county
ownership, and would not only all
police generally, but has many other
advantages to both the owner and
the traveller Incidentally it would
mean considerable saving in the
steel tonnage used for the longer
numbered tags. Nothing definite has
been done in the matter and will not
be until Secretary Brown has care
fully considered the scheme.

ABANDONED AUTO FOUND
AT H.. & o. TURNTABLE

Tuesday morning an abandoned
Ford runabount was found at the B.
& O. turntable in upper Malta. 1t
would appear that someone not ia
miliar with the lay of Malta, was at
tempting to make a getaway. The
car was found between the turntable
and the track.
Tuesday the owner of the car was
traced by the license plate number.
1T was found to belong to Alva Folk
of Santoy. 1t was purchased from
the Harvey garage of this place.
While searching about the car, a
broken jug containing liquor was
found, and Marshal HI. /. Wilson ar
rested two parties who were sus-
pected of being connected with the
matter, the owner of the car, Folk,
and Russell Virgins, both of San
toy The former was arrested on
the charge of being drunk, trans
porting liquor, and driving an auto
while drunk. Virgins was arrested
on the charge of drunkenness, and at
the preliminary hearing Tuesday ev-
ening before Mayor Henery of Nal
Ia, he pleaded guilty. Folk pleaded
not guilty, and the date of his trial
is fixed for this evening. Virgins
will not be sentenced until after the
hearing of Folk. The latter is in
the Malta lookup.

Ohio Coal For State Institutions

Only Ohio mined coal is now be-
ing used in state institutions. This
is the first time in the history of
Ohio that such has been the case.
Several of the institutions used
shipped in coal, the engineers claim
ing that Ohio coal would not meet
the requirements. When such a
condition existed Governor Donahey
ordered the boilers and engines
changed so that Ohio coal would
meet requirements, and at very lit
tie expense this change has been
brought about. AS result thou
sands of tons of Ohio mined coal are
being used in state institutions to-
day and as result many miners are
being employed who would other
wise be idle. Even in view of the ae-
ton of Governor Donahey in order
ing that only Ohio mined coal be
used, it is said that the condition in
the Hooking Valley is far from what
it should be, and many miners are
idle

MILDRED G. WOODWARD
DIES AT HER HOME HERE

Wednesday morning at about one
o'clock, death claimed Miss Mildred
c. Woodward, aged IA years, follow
ing an illness from typhoid-pneu-
monia, of about three weeks. Since
Saturday her condition had been
very critical, and her death thought
probable at any moment. However,
after putting up such gallant fight
! for SO many days, it was thought
that she might perhaps take turn
for the better, but with all that med
ical skill and the best of attention
could do, the death messenger could
not be stayed.
She was daughter of the lateCary
Woodward, former county commits
sioner, and of Mrs. Kate Mautz
Woodward, who is now Mrs IT. G.
Shilling.
Short funeral services will be held
at her late home Friday at 1:30 for
relatives and close friends, and pub
lie services will be held at the Nc
Connelsville NJ. E. church at D. m.
Friday. The burial which will be in
the McConnelsville cemetery, will
be private.
At the request of near relatives,
we refrain from publishing more
extended notice of this loyable young
girl at this time. A longer notice
will appear next week.
