PHILOSOPHY
By Uncle bud.

people need is not brains enough to
make more money but brains enough
to take care Of what they now get.
These are the days when people have
to hurry home in order TO get ready
to 90 somewhere else"
Little experiments in matrimony
frequently result in the payment
of alimony.
Ase Boggs says shat barber"
is spelled wrong these days; it
should be "bobber."
None but the brave deserve the
fair; and frequently it takes that
kind to live with 'em.
No man was ever able to make a
safety razor behave the way the
magazine ads say it does.
Edison tells US that noise is es-
sential to happiness. Just think
how happy boilermaker must be!
Why it is that the hardest jobs
come upon you just when you
have the least inclination to tackle
them?
The ability to size up a situa-
ton correctly generally results in
being able to knock down neat
financial returns.
One of the troubles with getting
ahead in the world is that too many
people try to do it by climbing on
someone else's back
The average patriot" is fell
low who thinks everybody who
doesn't agree with him is either
bolshevist or an anarchist.
Education is a great thing. A
man will spend $4,000 to put his
son in a position over the old man.
If people would only learn how
to take care of their physical be-
ings and do it-most of the sur
geons would be obliged to suspend

A cynic has rightly said that ev-
cry bit Of culture and beauty and
refinement that the ladies have
brought into politics and business
has been taken away from the life
of the home.
The fellow who cannot read
misses many good things; but in
this age of literary drivel he isn't
total loser for he wins by not be-
ing obliged to wade through a lot
of worthless junk.
The after-dinner speaker had
resolved to turn over a new leaf.
Never again would he address a
bored gathering. But one day he
was approached by woman who
asked him to speak before ladies'
club.

"Oh, but that won't make any
difference" she quickly returned,

A Swede visited the city for the
first time and, getting hungry, en-
tered swell restaurant. Not be-
ing able to read the bill of fare,
he decided not to display his ignor-
ance and said to the waiter:
"Yust bring me little bit of every

TAKE UP
TRACK work soon
Lose Four of Last Years Stars,
But Much New Material
Shows Up

"On the face of the situation" de-
clared OFT Romney when asked as to
the possibilities for a winning track
team for 1926. "the prospects are very
dismal because we have lost four of
our best last years men," Shorty
Bachman, who was Montana States
veteran long distance runner and who
was never beaten in the two-mile run
in intercollegiate contests,r graduated
last spring leaving a hole that will
be hard to fill. Teddy CogsweIl, one
of the best sprinters that M. S. c..
has ever seen is also out of the run
ming this year. These two men,
along with Leroy Powers, veteran
pOle-vaulter, and Ed Bunney, cham
pion half miller, both of whom gradu-
ated last spring, made a total of 25
out Of the 2112 points captured by
Montana State college at the Rocky
Mountain Conference meet last spring.
However" continued Coach Rom
ney, eve have no cause to feel dis
heartened. for there are many fine
athletes still with us and many mora
promising freshmen who show up
wonderfully well this spring"
Stanley Hodgson, who last year
hugged Bunney rs the half mile races
and nearly beat ;hman in one Of
the mile races, Is already working
hard to get in shape for the coming
contests this spring, when, it is hoped
he will show up better than ever

remaining en- the 1925 schedule will
be as follows:

Following the victory of State Col
lege ever State University, M. S. C.
and M. S. C. debaters went on a no
decision contest speaking tour to vari-
Gus Montana cities. These debates
were held in Hamilton, Whitehall,
Great Falls, Roundup, Big Timber,
Columbus, Billings and Livingston.
A statement that appeared in the
press to the effect that the College
team was defeated in these debates,
was erroneous, since they were no
decision contests as between debate
teams. After each debate the audi
ence was requested to vote upon the
questions according to its own views
and not according to the ability Of the
teams. Montana State College had
the side of the question which was not
the popular side and hence the side
not generally approved by the audi
ence.
The varsity debate squad includes
Edward Bell Of Bozeman, Winton
Weydemeyer of Libby, Raymond
Beatty Of Helena, Henry Gardiner of
Anaconda and Leroy Anderson Of
Conrad.
The freshman squad has participat-
ed in two debates, winning from both
the State University freshmen and
the Billings Polytechnic team. Fresh
men debaters are Frank Richards Of

CURTAIN FOR SENATOR EDGE

The decisive victory of Senator
Whitney over McCran, for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor Of
New Jersey at the election last
Tuesday, spells defeat for Sena-
tor Walter e. Edge as well. Sena-
tor Edge supported McCran for the
nomination; he had pursuaded him
to enter the race, and he did his
utmost to deliver the Jersey Repub-
lican vote.
Thus it means not only defeat
for McCran, but Edge supporters
and opponents alike agree that it
also means "Finis" for Edge control
in the State.
Shrewd observers of Jersey poll
tics argue that Edge only wanted
McCran nominated, and that he did
not want him elected Governor. With
a Republican majority in the As
sembly and Senate the power of a
Democratic Governor would be cur
tailed. And these observers point
out that Exchange courtesies" be-
tween Edge and Democratic leaders
would have given him satisfying
power in the State.
Now that Senator Whitney has
won the nomination there is high
optimism in Republican circles that
he can defeat Moore, the Democra-
tic nominee. Republicans had al
ready conceded the election of Moore
over McCran if the latter had been
nominated.

RIGHT OF WAY
FOR FIRE ENGINES

Many people go crazy with ex-
citement when they hear fire
alarm. If they only knew it. they
make perfect asses Of themselves by
driving their cars frantically to the
scene of the fire. In addition to
that they are endangering their
own lives and the lives of others.
There have been some narrow es-
capes in Lanbertville.
William L. Dill, Motor Commits
sioner of New Jersey, recently cited
the following law in warning motor
drivers against violations of this
nature: "The driver of vehicle, on
the approach of fire engine, or
any other fire apparatus, shall i'm
mediately draw up said vehicle as
near as practical to the right hand
curb and parallel thereto and bring
it to standstill until such fire
apparatus has passed"
Numerous complaints have reach
ed Commissioner Dill's office against
the violations of this law, and he
has stated that stringent sentences
will be dealt out to guilty parties.
Any officer observing drivers who
fail to give fire engines the right
of way will be guilty of neglect
of duty unless they arrest the Of
tenders.

Bayonne, N. J.-Private Edward
A. Fisher, of Bayonne, wants the
world to know that he's alive and
has as much kick in him as a quart
of bootleg "mule." Nothing dead
about him, despite the numerous
reports from "official government
sources" to that effect.
1t happened when he was wound
ed in the Argonne drive. An opera
tion and he was announced dead and
sent to a morgue. But after a
little his pulse began beating again
and the morgue officials knew that
they had lost a customer.
His service secord, however, had
been marked with the notation that
he was no more. The overseas
undertakers, absorbed in a craps
game, stopped "to make one more
pass" and forgot to classify Fisher
on the "live" side of the ledger.
Recently The American Legion
here induced the city to vote a
sum of money for making indes-
tructable pictures of its heroes. A
Legionnaire called on Mrs. Fisher
for a photograph of her deceased
husband, Fisher let out wild veil,
"We1l have to remove his name
from the monument and the tablet
said the representative. Then he
made a hasty exit.
