to Keep Boarders for Profit"
 A lot of parents who think it is
 silly to lock the stable after the
 horse is stolen don't start spanking their kids until they are in theii teens.
 It is getting so a woman thinks lit is as silly to keep an unsatisfac- tory husband as it is to keep that kind of a maid.
 They are held together by true love if on Monday morning she 1 doesn't heave a sigh of relief that there is only one day in the week he has to hang around home all day.
 The reason more men are not arrested is because none of them ever leave as many clothes hang ing in the closet when he starts down town as his wife does. The impression some girls give us is that Nature only intended you to see them little distance ahead of you. An average husband is one who thinks his wife ought to have enough material in her skirt be- tween the hem and waistband to keep them from looking like they were necking.
 A diamond is hard so is a con- crete floor, but neither is as hard as the job of trying to convince a wife you are worth loving if you are making the least money of any of your friends.
 Still since flapper can imagine she is warm when she looks frozen to death it probably isn't surpris- ing that she can imagine her lips and cheeks look more attractive all smeared up with paint.
 Times change and the girl who used to want to make her hair look as attractive as possible soon vii be spending hours trying to make her half grown bob look as idiotic as possible.

TRADE AT HOME.

The Chamber of Commerce started a good work when it set itself about tha task of encouraging the buy at home" principle Its suggestions for the mitigation of the mail order evil all worthy of earnest tryouts There is no one thing that will do more for progress in this community than bringing about a maximum of trading at home with the home merchants and home producers A large part of the money spend at home stays here and continues to work for the community And trading at home encourages the merchants to carry larger and better stocks It increases the volume of their sales that it might be possible for them to give better service and sell closer margins
 This is matter that ought not to be left to the Chamber of Commerce alone. It is a question that interests every person who lives in the City and has interest in it-even if the interest is no than job. If everybody would trade at home there would be more and better jobs which means greater opportunity for everyone II everyone would take this matter seriously and solve it for himself by doing his trading here the problem would quickly disappear and the reaction for the towns good would be immediate and effective

MAKING JUDICIAL PROCEDURE MORE
 EFFICIENT.

State Senator Baumes of New York, head of the Baumes Commission, appointed to suggest amendments for the simplifcation and making efficient the State criminal courts has introduced bills at Albany giving defendants in criminal cases other than those involving the death penalty the right to waive jury trials and removing the inhibition against Prosecut- ing Attorneys from commenting upon the failure of defendants to take the witness stand Senator Baumes, when presenting his bills, said that under laws permitting defendants to waive their right to juries 80 per cent of the criminal in Maryland and 70 per cent. of those in Connecticut tried without juries expediting court procedure and re- ducing costs immensely. The leading New York news papers supporting both measures
 Senator Baumes has also approved suggestion of Gov. Roosevelt that the State should select and train corps of detectives to aid local governments that might ask for it in running down criminals and procuring the evidence in cases in the local courts

JUNEAU WELCOMES LEGISLATORS.

Juneau whole -heartedly and disinterestedly well comes the Senators and Representatives who are coming to the City to attend the ninth biennial session of the Territorial Legislature. They will be her guests for the next two months and Juneau wants them to feel at home and enjoy themselves while they are working for the people of the Ter ritory
 Juneau welcomes the Legislators, not only because they are members of the Legislature but because they are leading citizens of widely separated com munities Their coming gives those who come ir contact with them opportunity to get the view

(New York Times.)

(NeW YOrk IlmeSJ
 From two widely distant Watch-Towers of The Times comes the news that social and political dvi- sons over Alfred E. Smith last November are by no means mended In Nebraska the Anti Saloon League and certain preachers continue to rebuke Senator Norris for his political and they consider) religious apostasy and the most prominent Democratic woman in the State was not confirmed as member of the State Board of Charities and Corrections because she had led the fight for Smith and bears the namc Of Ryan.
 In Virginia while overtures to the anti-Smth bolters have been made Bishop Cannon is urging his followers to stand against the State and national leadership of 1928. Since this obviously refers to Senator Glass, among others, it can be seen that the factions in Virginia in no melting mood.
 This very outcome was foreseen and feared by many How long the evil effects of the tactics em- ployed during the campaign, particularly in the South and West, will last cannot be said. MT. Hoover undoubtedly is sincere in his expressed wish that all such differences be forgotten and that every body should get togteher to pull for the United States of America But he will probably find this shadow upon every application for office in many States in the Union.

Monument Proposed to Heroine.
Steward Gateway.)

The suggestion that a monument be placed over the last resting place of Ann Woods, Kanakanak Orphanage girl who lost her life in December from burns received when she carried out of the building flaming lamp and thereby undoubtedly saving the lives of many of the little asleep an upper floor is a most worthy suggestion and fol- lowing out the wish of Westward residents the Gate way is going to make real effort sthat their wish may true.
 The proposal of seeking a Carnegie Medal-a posthunous awards also a creditable suggestion and sincerely trust this also may be obtained. Nc honor for this native girl seems to be too great; to us we will never forget the name of Ann Woods the heroine of the Kanakanak Orphanage who gave up her fine life that the babies upstairs might live.

 In nominating Major General Wendell C. Neville to succeed Major General John A. Lejeune Con- mander of the Marine Corps, President Coolidge n- vtes wide popular commendation Like his predeces- sor, General Neville greatly distinguished himself in the late war, winning prestige and glory for the Governments most distinctive fighting force unit
 General Neville stands high in the popular re- gard Not only is he remembered for notable gall lant services in the ercest fighting of the late war; but well for distinguished heroic service in Cuba during the Spanish American conflict, and during the investment and occupation of Vera Cruz. The Corps and the Nation are honored by this nomina- ton.
 John A. Lejeune, well known in this city, also added much to the luster of Marine Corps history. No two Commanders of the Corps have held it to a higher standard of efficiency and achievement than Lejeune and Neville. The American Legion par
 culary is gratfed the selection of the latter by President Coolidge His selection means that the great corps which first has felt the brunt of every war in the Nations history since the organization of this brilliant unit in the national defense, under the command of General Neville will be ready not only to guard the peacetme interests of the Re public, but to meet any conceivable emergency of war well prepared and inspired to maintain the glor- tous traditions of the Corps.
