Madame Perkins Ambitions.

M AYBE it's not wise to add those
1Nl new departments to the Presi-
Dental cabinet right now. True,
Madame Perkins shows a patriotic
willingness-or shall we say deter
mination?-not only to look after
her own portfolio, but to snatch up
such responsibilities as her fellow
secretaries are so careless as to
leave out of nights.
Still, it's expecting an awful lot
of one weak woman that she should
relieve two more members of their
responsibilities, duties and author
ity when the task of trying to take
over the other nine present jobs be-
sides her own already has taxed
her strength severely. And besides,
there's annoying talk that congress
may actually oppose the madame's
latest little suggestion that she be
made practically the supreme pow
er in all labor disputes.
But she needn't worry about that.

Owl Dumb, But Useful

The owls reputation for great
wisdom is quite unmerited. Sci
entists have known for a long
time that the owl is one of the
"dumbest" of all things in feath-
ers; though a recent announce
ment of that commonplace fact
got considerable press notice. But
though he isn't wise, Old Hooty is
nevertheless very useful. He feeds
mostly on mice and other small
rodents, and helps to keep their
numbers below the proportions of
an absolute pest.-Science Serv-

The Floods Aftermath.

MYTH the slackening of the tor
w rents, the peak of drama out
of the scene, but the tragedy, less
spectacular but nevertheless des-
perate, fingers on-the tragedy of
destitution and ruin and sickness.
For the rebuilding of wrecked
homes, the rehabilitation of morale,
it is necessary that through the Red
Cross we give and keep on giving
and l reckon we will. We always
have.
But there are certain things we
need not give the victims, for these
be things they never lose and never
will-their courage and their sense
of humor. We can still laugh at our
personal misfortunes even while the
world at large weeps for them. l
guess, for our race, that's the main
saving grace.

here's another little notion:
That a fragrant offender or a
chronic offender shall be given a
Jail sentence. without the option of
paying fine, the only alternative
from Jail being his or her willing
ness to be handcuffed and chained

period of hours or days at the scene

was responsible.
