more than a year ago by Dictator
Pangalos and the constitution shelved
In one point, the constitution is even
more radical than the country ex.
pected. 1t introduces proportional rep
resentation. This has been fought
bitterly by certain groups, especially
the so-called progressive liberals-the
old Venizelos party-headed by NJ.
Caphandaris.
Message Shows Struggle.
Gen. Condylis imposed his will on
the government, but how desperately
he struggled Is shown by his message
to the Greek nation published We'd
nesday. in which he denounces the
satanic Vaccinations of Caphan-
daris.
Wednesday afternoon a small but
noisy group Of Caphandaris support
ers conducted demonstration before
the government offices, shouting
Down with proportional representa-
tion.' But mostly the Greek people
accept the sensational change from a
dictatorship to advanced liberalism
with calmness.

theaters, which display nudity that
would make Broadway blush.
Meanwhile the government is busy
undoing Dictator Pangalos' work.
The budget is being reformed, the
repressive press laws have been
abolished and new provincial govern
ments have been appointed. Elections
are fixed for October "a.
The new Parliament will function
for a fortnight as constituent assem-
bly,. ratifying and possibly modifying
the new constitution. It appears
probable that the government will not
try Gen. Pangalos until Parliament
gives it's consent, for Gen. Condylis
wishes carefully to observe legal
forms. However, there is strong agi-
tation to try him Immediately.

DIR. Coleman w. Kerry is conduct
ing his meetings at the public library.
The house is packed evry night. 1t is
hard to get standing space. I believe
if he had a bigger building he would
have larger attendance. The place is
not large enough to hold the people.
Men and women are coming from all
sections to hear him.
He did not hold afternoon services
Sunday but visited various churches in
the city and community. He had soul

and one missed half of his or her life
if they did not hear that message He
expects to close his meetings Sunday
night. There will not be any meeting on
Saturday He urges all who would like
to see him Saturday to come in the

At present, during the meetings, six
ty-six persons have confessed. These
will connect themselves with the var

MUSINGS
BY THE OBSERVER

Since we began last week talking
about collecting, paying, and such things
as that, it brings other ideas to mind
closely related. 1t is Biblical fact that
Whatsoever a man soweth, so shall he
reap" We know that it is scientific
fact that ''for every action there is a
contrary reaction of equal proportion"
We know that for every cause there is
an effect and wise versa. Now these are
Facts, and there is no lodging the issue.
There are certain Unborn or acquired
habits that we hhave-good or bad
that will show very evidently in this
world in spite fall can be done or said.
1t is inevitable. Instances are myriad
and various, but for the sake of contin-
uity we shall limit them to one or two.
An old storekeeper was looking over
his ledger, balancing accounts, and COM
menting as he went Some owed him
money, could not pay him but were able
to take long and expensive trip very
often, some owed and had had bad luck,
but he knew their character and knew
that they would pay when they could,
some could pay only $40 of the $50 they
owed and left the fifty cents over on

account of pure cussedness, others paid
promptly and well. In the end he con-
Guided that "the man who pays his
debts is the one who gets on in the
world" That statement is correct; and
you cannot get around it. Anyone may
take short inventory through our city
and find that those who get on are the
ones who pay or at least show willing
ness to pay their debts. Anyone who
has had any business dealings at all will
readily call to mind the characters the
old storekeeper had on his book. There
are some who for the life of them, can
not pay their rent when the day comes,
they can tell all kinds of bad luck stor-
les when you go to collect and on to-
morrow you will see them on long au-
tomobile trip, or perhaps new auto
mobile, new furniture that you are help
ing to buy. Then you will find those
who will cause you to walk from one
side of town to the other for thirty-five
cents and when you get there they can
not pay you but thirty of them to save
their lives and tell you to come back
tomorrow and get the other nickel. They
know you'd be silly to come. They may

they got in my debt and now they don't
speak. There are some who really get
in hard luck on account of adverse cir
cumstances, but they no doubt have
made either good or bad name for
themselves and shall profit accordingly.
Then there are the ones who pay, will
sacrifice to pay, who make their obliga-
lions the first consideration, those are
the ones who "get on" Those are the
substantial, reliable, respected families.
They hold the community together.

of justice and they hold in spite of all

With the clarion call of get OUT
the vote!"N the Douglas league has be-
gun the initial movement in city
wide campaign to get out the largest
vote ever polled in this city. This
wiIlf be the major activity of fhe
league until after the general election
in November. The feature achleVe-
ment this month will be the thorough
organization of willing workers VINO
will have a representative in each
block throughout the city. There has
been such a hearty response from
league members and other public
spirited women that soon the intens
sive work of the campaign will be
begun.
The plans do not include any spec
tacular onslaught at the time of the
general election, but rather quiet,
effective organization which will en-
deavor to keep in touch with every
man and woman eligible to vote and
to distribute such educational litera-
ture as the league is able to secure.
All voters will be urged to register,
to vote in the primary and to vote in
the general election regardless of
party affiliations.
1t has been said that the greatest
menace to Americanism today is
neither anarchism nor bolshevism,
but indifference on the part of both
men and women to their RESPONSE
bilities and privileges of citizenship.
The league hopes that their efforts
may prove most effective means OF
inspiring every Douglas voter to vote
and to vote intelligently.
