Sacrificing Weight
For Speed

You can not have the utmost
possible of one thing without
sacrificing something else.
That is the reason why the
steamship Lexington, the new
airplane carrier of the navy, is
the swiftest big ship, armed or
unarmed, afloat. The Lexing-
ton was started as big cruiser,
and then, under the Washington
conference agreement, trans
formed into a plane carrier.
AS such, it does not have to
be heavily armored, nor to carry
heavy guns and emPlacenl 4nts.
The extra weight can go INTO
engines and driving power.
The Lexington does not hight
with guns, and car run away
from vessels that do fight with
them, or can be defended by
other such vessels.

place of that good but evil smelling,
stomach upsetting medicine and
they surely do it. They do put on
flesh.
Ask Nathan Murray, Druggist,
HowelPs Pharmacy or any good
druggist for McCoy's Cod Liver
Oil Compound Tablets - as easy
to take as candy and not at all ex
pensive-6O tablets 60 cents.
Be sure and get McCoy's, the

Mussolini and
Jefferson

The daring Mussolini has cast
to the winds another cardinal
principal of democratic govern
ment.
Local councils in all towns
under 5000 will be replaced with
a commissioner appointed by
royal decree-which in Italy
means Mussolini' $ decree.
Mussolini' S aim seems to be
to build up a strong centralized
government, which supervises
the police powers in the smaller
towns. Early in the history of
this republic, Thomas Jefferson
fought with all his power against
such an idea.
Later history has proved that
in general he was right. 1t is
doubtful if Mussolini can yet
prove Jefferson was wrong.

WORLD COURT
RESOLUTION UP

From now until at least the sew
enUeenCn OF December, when the
world court resolution come up
Tor action in the Senate, meetings
will be held all over the country to
urge favorable action.
1t is known that there are more
than enough votes in the Senate to
pass the resolution, and it is demon
strated that the articulate voice of
American is by enormous prepond-
GRANGE for the court.
But the majority still needs the
support of the hitherto inarticulate
mass of the people in order to str
engthen its hand against the pos
sible victorious obstruction of the
minority. These meetings will give
the people information and means
of expression.
But these pro-cOurt meetings

The Thrill of the
Crowd

The thrill of a huge crowdl
1t was thrill that caused ancient
Romans to build their big coils
cum and to jam it full of people
for every public event.
The world today is far less
barbarous than the Romans, but
there's hardly an American who
doesn't get a thrill out of a big
crowd assembled for some big
sporting event.
The real thrill one gets out of
watching the world series base
ball games is not in the play,
which often is ordinary, but in
the crowd itself.
There nothing else in the
world quite like the real howl OF
cheers, shouts and general JOY
that comes from the crowd when
a hit scores the winning run fol
the home team in the last of the
ninth.
Few persons would walk {
block to see a world series if he
were the lone spectator. The
poorest show you ever saw wa:
when the house was almost emp
ty. It's the crowd.

EDITORIALS


"Thou shalt not" is the language
of the Decalogue.
Repress the impulses of the flesh,
of greed and of sloth.
"Thou shalt" is language of
Christ.
Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
Myself.
Whatsoever we would that men
should do to you, do We even so un-
to them.
Devote the impulse of self to the
equal good of others.
Thou mayest" is the language of
the Neo-Freudianism, which seems
to be taking the place of Christian
ethics. Express yourself, especially
in the things that have always been
depressed.
Freedom consists not merely in
exemption from the rule of others,
but in exercising no control over
yourself. Seek experience" espe-
cially forbidden experience.
Repress nothing; express every
thing. And flout as ''old fOgy'
those who would revive the inhibi-
tons, the prohibitions, the tabus
Thou shalt not" is out of date.
1t will wear out, of course, as
everything does that is false, but
whole generation will pay the
price. And the wages of sin have
not changed.

ought not to be the only ones.
4ne people are entitled to hear
the other side also. In fact they
ought especially to hear that.
Wnen there, is such an overwhelm
ing preponderance of organized
opinion on one side, the buraen of
proof is on those who propose to
obstruct the policy thus favored 20
show why they are right, as against
the majority.
The senators who propose to vote
against adherence to the court
ought to be out on the stump now,
conducting an active campaign Of
education of their constituents.
Otherwise they will be leaving the
field to their opponents. They can
not win converts by silence.
If on full discussion, they can
not win them by facts and argu-
ments, either, perhaps they might
conclude that they were mistaken,
and change their votes, or at least
their obstructive tactics. At any
rate, if a campaign of education is
to 90 on, both sides should DO it.

TEN YEARS AGO TODAY

Judge John A. Cobb returned last
night to Americas after an extend
ed and successful trip into several
counties beyond Flint river where,
with the representatives of the state
departments of agriculture and en-
tomology, they made several ad-
dresses bearing upon the boil weevil
invasion of south Georgia. and the

this destructive pest.

A Disappointed
Reporter

A Washington newspaper re-
lates how DR.. Jason Noble
Pierce, pastor of President Cool
idge's church, told his congrega-
ton that building inspectors had
declared parts of the church I'M
safe.
The reporter then goes on to
say:
If the pastors remarks
aroused any apprehension in the
president party it was not dis
cernible, Neither the chief ex-
ecutive nor Mrs. Coolidge was
outwardly moved"
We suppose the reporter ex-
pected MIR. Coolidge to hop right
up and say:
Come on, Grace, let's get out
of here before the church falls
down"
We can't imagine President
Coolidge becoming excited over
anything-not even if the roof
did fall.

Wisconsin and
Her Primary

Why is there no Democratic
party in Wisconsin?
A few years ago the Demo
cratic party of the State became
literally and legally extinct. with
out votes enough to qualify for
a place on the primary ballot. 1t
is little better now, but when
"a major national party is beaten
20 to |, and falls behind even
the Socialists, it is no longer a
significant factor.
Any primary law has some
tendency to minimize the mi
nority party. But the Wiscon-
sin primary law greatly magni-
fees the tendency.
Because, under it, the voter of
any party may vote secretly in
the primary of the other party,
there is a natural stampede into
the primary where the chief
contest is.
The result is that the minority
party ceases to exist, and the
majority party ceases to be
party.

Gasoline
Dividends
~ X

Cash dividends paid by the
Standard Oil group for the third
quarter of this year established
a new high record for third-quar-
ter disbursements, says the
New York Times.
The total Tor the third quar-
ter this year was $34,899, 348.
It's not out of order to suggest
that some government agency
find out whether the Standard
group wouldn't be able to make
several million dollars a month
if the price of gasoline were cut
FIVE cents a gallon.

Do not be fooled into believing
that the new arm of the air has

The best evidence is that no
naval power is considering doing a
way with, or curtai.ing, its surface

sure, might be mistaken
