Compensation

Among the compenSatiOnS-hoW-
ever few they may be--of the in
tense heat of the past two weeks Is
the fact that nobody's waterpipeS are
freezing and bursting, and that it
doesn't take a ton of coal a week to
feed the furnace or run the stoves.
1t was like that the last week in
Janlary and the first week in Feb
ruary Of this year.
II you can take the rap, it doesn't
cost you anything to sweat and to
weave your old palm Leaf fan back
and forth by day or by night. But
it costs like smoke when your pipes
freeze and your stoves eat up fuel
as fast as you can buy it, and often
times faster.
Whether it is l05 or mere 80,
We'll take the good old summer time
for our'n.

Wasting His Time

Wendell wIuKle Will be wasting
time II he comes into the South this
fall in his Q,,e>t Tor votes for preSl-
dent. HIS EFFORTS and energies cOulu
probably be put to better use else
where in maintenance OF his ambl-
tions. There is lot OF sentiment
in these parts against Democratic
trends, but it we were betting man
we would lay all our money on
every southern state staying put III
the Roosevelt column in November
II optimism in Republican ranks
over prospective victory in the pres
identiaI sweepstakes is measured oy
expectations III the Solid South, then
G.. 0. P. stock has gone down con-
siderably since the Philadelphia con-
vention.
Word has probably reached the
nominee OF traditional opposition in
the South against third term Tor
any man Tor president. But MI.
Willkie will live to regret it II he
counts on electoral votes in these
parts. Unless there is more OF
split than now seems even remotely
probable, Mr.. Roosevelt will be the
beneficiary OF DiXie'S ballotlng come
three months hence.
Much store is being laid by the
Republicans by what happened in
1928. 1t was as much of surprise
to the South as it was to any other
section OF the country when four or
five states OF the section deserted Al
Smith for Herbert Hoover. Few
have regretted Smiths fate, but only
a like few. if any, have taken
pride in the record Hoover made.
In 1923 it was largely Smiths
Catholic faith. This year it is largely
the issue of the third term. AS be-
tween the two, it would be our
thought that religion played bigger
part in 1923 than will opposition to a
third term now. The South will lind
it easier to swallow Roosevelt
dynasty than Al Smith and the pope.
We do not believe Mr.. Willkie will
win if his victory depends on the
support ne can get in the South. a
tour OF the South may win him
votes, out it won't win enough OF
them to give him single S'r'e here.
If he IS wise, ne will devot' ne

down and compare it with the re-
turns on election night.

Cooperation

Much stress was laid on the idea
and the necessity of cooperation in
community effort at the Chamber Of
Commerce dinner last night. And
rightly so. for if an organization OF
this kind means anything, coopera-
ton is that thing.
1t has long been said by critics Of
the Henderson personality that one
OF our major shortcomings IS the
lack of united effort. That probably
is true, but how much truer, if any,
than of other communities we cam
not say. Every city or town has its
droneS-thoSe who are unwilling to
assist in joint movements for the
common good.
Sometimes there are those who
think 50 we'll of their own judgment
and ability that they won't take any
part unless they can be the leaoer.
Well. we cannot all be leaders. Some
ALWAYS have to follow while others
give the order and do the thinking.
The hes equipped individuals should
Da ,;r''>' I with that function, but
it Is i, l'y vs. t!iat they are.
I cooperation lies partly
in u. .sy' mat we are infested with
too many SidelineS critics; too many
who find pleasure in proclaimin&
that it can't be done, and who, once
it is being done, volunteer the opin-
ion that it is not being done right.
Henderson-aS we'll as other COM
munitieS-Would 60 faster and furth-
ey if the spirit of unity were more
pronounced And from the stand
point of business. the best place for
funneling that spirit into power and
achievement is the Chamber Of
Commerce. In it is a place for the
energies of every one to be applied
If there is willingness to go along
together.
It is a wholesome thing for
Chamber of Commerce dinner gath
erings to be held after the fashion
of that one last night. To undertake.
such an aSSemblage only for the an
..ual election occasion is spacing
them bit too far apart. it seems.
six months is better. and once each
quarter might be found profitable.
The civic clubs each have differ
ert groups. But here all ages and
shacr< Of opinion are fused. This is
a communicable organization Co.
ordination OF its energies with those
OF the civic bodies would put dill
fcrent color into the picture so far
as progress and achievement are
concerned.

Citizen Soldiers
Departure of National Guardsme

Departure of National Guardsmen
for their annual summer maneuvers
is further emphatic reminder of the
crisis that cCnfrontS this country at
the present hour. II is not an
emergency of our own making, and,
despite the inclination in some quart
ers toward hysteria, the situation
can hardly be regarded as over-rated.
Ordinarily, the navy is spoken Of
as our first line Of defense, and that
is Tfue. But the reality in no sense
minimizeS the Importance of the
place the army is called on to fill
in the preparedness set-up. And the
National Guard ranks next in order
as our safeguard against danger,
however inadequate OF unpreparcd it
may be.
Since time immcmorial Henderson
has had units of the guard organiZa-
ton Company G. and its predeCeS-
&orS trace their history back to the
Civil War, if we mistake not. The or
ganization, with different personnel,
of course, saw service in the Spanish
American War, and scores OF citizens
in city and county today can testify
to the brilliant record the unit made
in the World War.
The several units here of the
iO5th Medical Regiment date back
only 10 the time of World War No.
|, but their service in pcace-time has
ranked them among the finest in
the National Guard.
While this period Of manCuvCrs is
Tor three weeks, half as long again
as any heretofore, the general inn
preston is it is scarcely more than
Il prelude to an official call from the
President for years training, d
call which is foregonc conclusion
for the near future, assuming the
bill authorizing the order is approx
ed by Congress, as it is almost GER
tain to be.
The city and county Jointly are
juStiGiably proud of these citizen
soldiers and the record they have
made in the past. They will give d
noble account of themselves during
this training period, as they will if
and when ordered away for an entire
year That goes, too, for any active
duty they may be called upon in
the future to perform. These units
are differed by commissioned men
who rank with the best in the militia
organization. They always have
been. This is one reason for the
proud record that constitutes their
history.
So the heart Of the community goes
with its guardsmen on the 1910
maneuvers. 1t is confident of the
efficiency and the honorable conduct
they will demonstrate during their
absence. Best wishes and Godspeed
TO every one Of them.

The New Chairman

Appoi ment of Edward j. Flynn,
New YC.ti State political boss, as
chairman Of the Democratic National
committee to succeed Postmaster
General Farley was surprise. Here
was one dark horse who made the
grade. Frank c. Walker, New York
business man and lawyer, was the
most talked of successor to Farley
at the time of the Chicago conven-
ton two weeks ago.
Flynn has had enough success m
political operations in his home
state to attract national attention.
He is from the same state as RooSe-
welt and Farley, though so also was
Walker
The record made by Farley as head
of the party in the nation for eight
years is one that gives Flynn some
thing to shoot at Genial Jim had
qualities that are rarely found in
the role he filled for Franklin Roose-
velt, and whether Flynn can match
his achievements will remain for
the coming three months to supply
the answer.
Probably it won't matter a great
deal, however, for the President him.

also. His Irish name is enough to
entitle him to recognition as fight

of that to do in the business of over
