81 to November 10. An organized
drive for reduction of the corporal

be made for further cuts in person
al taxes because of the Presidential
elections, but nothing much is ex-
pected in actual savings.
There is something about the
environment of Washington that
makes the great men of the world
blend into the picture and dulls the
lustre of fame. For instance, walk
ing along Sixteenth Street you may
note William Gibbs McAdoo walking
along unnoticed by the crowd. He
has established law offices here.
Charles Evans Hughes spends con-
siderable time in town practicing
before the courts, generally the
Supreme Courts, from which he
resigned some years ago. Herbert
Hoover, a world figure and now a
leading candidate for the Presiden-
tial nomination, travels about the
town and is seldom recognized.
Visiting dignitaries whose names

tales and comments on national and
world affairs. The season has just
opened and any whose duties do no
require their attention until Con-
gress meets are flocking back to
the capital merely to keep abreast
OF developments.
1t is remarkable how rapidly men
pass from powers. Talk now cent
ers on William M. Butler, formerly
Senator from Massachusetts, who
we are told. is walking from under
the halo of his influence. Over the
coffee cups or other glasses, they
say nowadays, that Mr.. Butler is
about to walk the plank as the ma
tional chairman of the Republican
party. While President Coolidge
was at the helm and a possible
candidate, his friend had the pleas
ing prospect of riding the Coolidge
band-wagon. With the G. o. p.
convinced that the President will
retire to private life, the predictions
are that Mr.. Butler will pass into
political oblivion.
Opinion prevails here that the
country has not yet obtained a true
picture of conditions existing in
Mexico. The press dispatches pass
ed by Mexican government censors
present only one view but concern
is felt as to the outcome of these
troubles. Ambassador Dwight Nor
row who laid side his exalted post
as a financial dictator of the Home
of Morgan, takes up diplomatic
appointment during cruical days.
Mr.. Morrow has been in conference
here for several days with his per-
sonal friend, the President and the
Secretary of State. Our Mexican
relations have always been source
of trouble.
If anyone has ever doubted the
cosmopolitan character of Wash
ington, especially since the world
war. they have only to attend social
now. There are 76 ma
tional groups represented at the
Radio Telegraphic Conference in
session here. Tradition as to dress
and rank is followed with the result
that high silk hats, and other formal /
wear is always in evidence. The
are CONSPICUOUS with
their brilliant uniforms and glitter
ing decorations.
There is noting definite about |
legislative plans for the winter. In |
recent years tariff matters have |
been given little attention because
Of the wide authority conferred upon
The Tariff Commission. The con-
troversy with France has BROUGHT !
The subject to the fore. The 1922 |
Tariff Act may be amended by Con-
gress, but no marked change in
Oilicy is expected. The supply bills
,or the maintenance of Federal De-
oartments will be ready for the
Of the House Appro-
Driations Committee shortly. The
WAYS and Means Committee will
conduct public hearings to obtain
yiews of tax reduction from October

heard to remark that the weather
is different from what it. was when
he was young. One such will con-
tend that our climate is undergoing
change, that the winters are dimin-
ishing in severity and the proof is
offered by reverting to big snow
'ttwhen I was a boy" The weather
bureau has more than once felt it
necessary to combat the idea of the
change of climate by referring to
the records which go back quite
way now, but often not so far as the
"old-timer's" recollection. However
official records, as far as they reach
are more dependable.
The bureau has dug up snow re-
cords to prove that we are just as
likely now to have a heavy snowfall
as ever. There is no regularity
about such things. Nor are SHOWS
distributed evenly. The greatest
snowfall on record occurred at
Springfield. ILL.,, IA years ago the
coming winter. It was 43 inches and
the people there would seem to be
pardonable if ever afterwards they
they refer to it as "the big snow.
The greatest seasonal snowfall was
in Bottom in 1894, but the winter
with the least snow was but two
years later.
1t is human frailty to exagger-
ate events of the past.
In our early youth we are more
deeply impressed by occurrences and
in reverting to them in later years
they take on magnified form. The
contrast of the legs of a boy from

fects us individually and not by the

excessively "cold winters" Of the
mast probably there were few ac-
curate therometers. Even now
these gauges vary greatly in the
readings where there are exception
al temperatures.
The life of one person is too short

year to year. but it is probably but

COST OF THOUGHTLEssNEss

To forget, like to err, is human.
The most thoughtful people some
times act unthingingly, and a good
memory does not save one from
forgetting, on occasion, that which
all should know. These human
failings explain the frequency with
which good citizens unintentionally
hurt their community by word or
deed.
The knocker is often a potential
booster lacking in tact. Knowing
the community's shortcomings. he
would be a community asset if he
would enthuse over what the home
town can do, instead of harp on
what it has failed to do. The one
method stimulates the community,
the other depresses it. That is why
the booster is popular and the
knocker unpopular, although both
may be striving for civic betterment
