AT Last-The Solution

Inducing the free born citizens of this glorious
republic exercise their priceless franchise at the
voting booth has been, fer years. one OF the major
problems Of all who would lead America on to big
ger and better things.
CITY, state and national elections have presented
grave issues; but for some reason the Americana.
in increasing numbers, stays away from the polls
And this has caused much muttering and wagging
of boards in high places.
But the solution has been found. To the great
city of Chicago less, the country is indebted for
a way out of this difficulty.
just put on a good vaudeville show in conncc-
ton with your campaign and you will get record

It's simple Chicago tried it, and proved it.
The recent mayoraty election in Chicago brought
cut a record-breakng vote. The embatted citi-
zcnry arose almost man and dripped ballots
from dawn to evening. The oldest inhabtant could
remember nothing like it.
The campaign that preceded this magnificens
outpouring of voters featured by these appeals
to the enlightened electorate:
cage containing two rats, which accompanied
one candidate to the rostrum on all his speaking
tours.
The playing by brass bands OF such classics as
"Bye Bye Blackbird.'
Caustc remarks about the table manners of the
contestants.
Stirring references to George Washington, Ola
Glory and america first
Singing rebukes for the public and private NOR
ais of Benedict Arnold, who died some years be-
fore Chicago was founded.
A fervent appeal to- vote in such a way as to
discomfit King George of England who had
nearly as much to do with the Chicago campaign
as the reignng Ahkoond of Upper Somaiand
There, then is the answer. 1t is we'll known to
theatrical magnates that good farce will outdraw
a serious problem play. There's enough grief in
life. it is said, without going to the theatre to see
more of it; the same, apparently, applies to the
voting booth.
Are there deep, monentous decisions to be made
by the electorate? Is there cear-cut contest be-
tween a demagog and an able public servant! Are
there questions to be decided that may affect our
national career most profoundly?
Forget em! Bring out, instead, a cage full OF
rodents; wrap one, if possible both. OF the lead.
ing candidates in Old Glory (cheers); base your
campaign on the ex-kaisers moral obliquty on
the high price of cocoanuts in Papeete, on the
treachery of Judas Iscariot on the heroism OF
Pickett's brigade at Gettysburg-on anything and
everything that will get the voters minds Oft the
real issues The rest will be automatic
And then sit back. fold your hands, and await the
millennium.

JnlOaded Guns

Hardly a day goes by but what the news records
the killing or manning Of someone by an UNLOAD
ed gum II didn't know it was loaded says the
author of all the mischief after the weapon dis
charges, killing injuring someone else. But It
never seems to to him to make sure about It
before he handles the gun.
Guns are all right. They rarely ever injure any,
one who knows anything about them, for the
person who knows guns, respects them. The person
who knows guns never leaves gun where it can
be handled by another unless he is sure there Is no
ammunition either in the weapon nearby where
it could be obtained by curious persons He never
leaves loaded gun around. He locks it up.
When the man who knows guns picks one up he
does so carefully with the muzzle pointed in a
direction where an accidental discharge would in
lure no one He doesn't look down the barrel to
see if it is loaded he doesn't start to take it apart
or clean it with the muzze pointed at his own
stomach. or at anyone else's. In other words, he
respects a gun as a weapon of injury and death
and not as plaything to dangle on the finger.
How different the attitude of the one who thinks
he knows guns! Nonchalantly he grabs the gun,
waving the muzzle wildly in circles so that
everyone in the is in. range, and then begins
cooking the hammer and pulling the trigger. He
stands the gun against table where it can fall
to tie floor and be discharged, he leaves shells in
the gun when it stands in the clothes closet, or in
the pistol as it rests in bureau drawer.
Criminal careessness, and only too prevalent
Is the mortality figures testify. Hospitals and
,norpues and cemeteries are full Of folks who have
been shot with "unloaded guns" handled by fools
