The Laurel Woman's club met
with Mrs. r. C. Colson last Thurs
day, Feb. 10. After routine bust
ness an interesting program was
enjoyed. Mrs. G. H. Barney had
the paper of the afternoon, "What
Is A Plant? And Plant Foods, What
They Are and What They Do"
Donald Culross Peattrie says: at
is a strange thing, and a wonder
Gus one, that no one can tell you
what a plant is. And when you
meet with that which is undefin-
able, then you are in the presence
of something great" w. E. Thew
ing has a different idea; he says:
every like humans, yes, but in
some ways the plants have powers
far beyond our own. They draw
water from the earth through their
roots, and carbonic acid gas from
the air through their leaves. They
combine these elements and through
the action of their mysterious leaf
green, called c~hlorophyll, they pro-
duce sugar which they transmute
into starch. Mankind hasn't yet
learned to do that. 1t is a process
that is a secret between the plants
and sun, the great distinguishing
characteristic of the vegetable
kingdom. But mankind and all the
animals are dependent for their TX
istence upon the miracle %perforled
by the plants.

serving you Loyalty, working
to produce your food, freely giving
you of their beauty, and looking to
you for the simple care that brings

DANGER TO DEMOCRACY

To The Editor Of The Republican:
Our Government is composed of
three distinct branches The Legis-
lative, Executive, and the Judiciary
Each has its own distinct function.
with each dependent upon the other to
make up the whole of our democratic
government.
The Legislative branch is that
which makes, or cnacts our laws. The
Judiciary passes Judgment upon these
laws, and legalizes them if they do
not endanger the rights of the people
under the Constitution The Executive
is the administrative branch whose
purpose is to carry these laws into
effect.
No one branch should dominate the
other. When that happens, the whole
purpose Of these branches is defeated,
and democracy ceases to exist.
A Dictator makes the laws. passes
Judgment, and carries them into eff
feet. He dominates the government
and forces his will upon the people,
completely ignoring their rights as
whom God Himself intended to be
Tree men.
To all appearances our Chief Exec
utive is inclined to dominate our gov
ernment. His influence has been used
IN appointing members to our Su-
preme Court who definitely favor his
views and policies He has used his
influence in elections to have men
elected to Congress, or as Governors
of some states that might back him
in certain purposes He tried to force
his will upon the Congress in vctoing
the recent tax bill, but was defeated
in that purpose when the Congress
passed it over his veto
Could the majority in our Congress
be wrong and he right? Surely they
knew what they were doing, when
they voted for this bill. They must
have known what would best suit the
people they represent in the various
sections of our country.
We must not let our Chief Exec
utive become so great in his power
that he loses sight of all the principles
on which our government was

4, 1890, and still continues as its

During the past year the only othc,

of the war, due to the labor shortage
leaving The Republican to carry the
responsibility of giving the readers
the news events as they transpire tc
reflect community life in truthful

community by supporting worthwhile

Upon his arrival in Canada, he
taught one year at St. Georges
School, Vancouver. Because of his in
innate and valuable knowledge of
japanese political and military leader
ship during It's period Of development
he was often called upon to deliver
addresses before distinguished audi

Idaho under the auspices Of the
Seattle Rotary Clubs war services
committee.
During his long residence in Japan,
he travelled extensively many times in

OF the Far East is based, therefore, on
long experience and keen observatory
