OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS 700—YES 497—NO For the Old School Site ENGCUGH SAID! P S OPTIMISTIC AMERICA The American people are optimistic. Nothing ever appears to cause them serious alarm or concern, They can’t see the dark side of anything. The sun always shines for them, The long, dry summer, costing hundreds of millions of dol-| lars in stunted crops, caused some disappointment, but no lamen- tations, The farmer just makes the best of it and sails right along on his course, firm in the conviction that what he loses this mmer he will make, up at another time. " The business world, at the low ebb of a long period of de- presgion, never loses its head or makes any serious complaint. Diminished sales and disappearing profits can not cause it to lose its supreme faith in the future. It builds in adversity today for success in prosperity tomorrow. : It is so in every walk of American life, in every sphere of ‘American occupation, It is the American spirit, which never admits defeat— which sees only future victory in the midst of present adversity. This town is a fair sample of the hundreds.of thousands that dot the land of free America. We recognize conditions as they exist, and adapt ourselves to them without wasting val-| uable time in bemoaning our misfortunes, But wg¢ have no intention of remaining in this state of tem- porary depression. We know that a change is on the way and that with a little patience we will welcome its arrival. The American spirit of optimism is the one that wins most in the end. LI R JAPAN IN A TIGHT HOLE Japanese statesmen are in a quandery, They hardly know which way to turn. Whatever course they take they are due to have some of their fondest dreams shaken, In calling the international conference at Washington and including Japan in the list, President Harding specified the Far Eastern question as one of the subjects for consideration and ad- justment. That is very objectionable to the Japanese, who prefer to have an exclusive hand in the Far East, where China and Korea are at their mercy. If she declines to discuss Far Eastern questions with the :United States, England, France, Italy and Belgium, she admits her ulterior motives, places herself on the defensive, and alien- ates the respect and forfeits the good will of the other partici- pants in the conference, If she enters into a discussion of such questions she must abide by the decisions of the conference, which means that the other Far Eastern countries will get a suare deal, and Japanese ambitions of exploitation will be forever shattered. Again, it is shrewdly suspected that Japan has designs upon the Philippines and other Americar\possessions, including Hawaii. A conference agreement would exclude the Japanese from the possibility of any future control of these islands, To refuse to.become a signatory to such an agreement would be to tacitly admit the Japanese intention to wage war against the United States for their possession, 1t is small wonder the Japanese are squirming and looking for a loophole through which to crawl, The Huguenots, Sacrilege! The Girl (at the Movies)—Look Huguenots was the name applied by the Roman Catholles to the Prot- estants of France during the religious struggles of the Sixtcenth and Seven- teenth centuries. The term is of doubtful origin. Some authorities say it Is corrupted through Ignots, Igue- nots, from the German Eidgenossen, confederates; while aceording to oth- ers, the word Is a diminutive of Hugo, Hugues, Hugh, a patron saint of Tours. ‘ere, Bert, ain’'t you got no more sen- timent than to crunch peppermints while there's a love scene goin' on? —From Royal Magazine, London, < Insulting the “Hub.” Some astronomical faker s out with a dastardly attempt to show that the center of the universe is about 4,000,000,000 miles from the Boston State house.—Boston Transcript.

DANGERS OF A COLD Bemidji Peol;le Will Do Well to Heed Them Many bad cases of kidney trouble result from a cold or chill. Congest- ed kidneys fall behind in filtering the poison-laden blood and backache, headache, dizziness and disordered kidney action folow. Don’t neglect a cold.

It settled on my kidneys and caused me a lot of annoyance. My kidneys acted too freely and I had pains across -the small of my back and it was hard for me to keep going.
