The voter who goes to the polls on election | A 1 it { has: , Daily by day and has to, hesitate in choosing candidates for the legis- lature because he does not know their record, their ability or their principles is not doing his duty as a citizen. Questions of great moment will arise in the next legis- | lature on which there is and cannot be factional or political jsion. The legislature controls the’ purse strings of the! state, and it:is within its power to give the officials a sane, ; economical course to travel or to open wide .the gates and ij allow expenditures tv mount. ‘ There has been a growing tendency upon the part-of | various groups of citizens to force legislative bodies to bend, o their will or threaten them with political destruction, and ‘the professional politician often bends rather than be de- ,feated. The man who cannot defy any group which secks to exact legislation or compliance under duress ought not o go to the next legislature. There is a vast difference between interpreting, the popular will, in truly representing he constituents than in remaining in power by yielding to ' the insistent selfish demands of small groups which are ac- ive ‘politically. We.need more candidates who will take pride in a defeat which may be caused by defiance of such groups: ‘ 1 ’ ] THERE’S JOY IN IOWA All is happiness and content in Iowa today. For the ‘cotball team from a little town in Iowa City invaded the ‘kennel of the bulldog of Yale Saturday and came away with a foctball victory. And too, after the star players: of the team of last year had graduated and gone back to Iowa’s teeming farms. : All Iowa was on edge in anticipation of the |; game, we were told. The odds on the football team became : more important for the time being than quotations on the !; Chicago Board of Trade, or the price of corn and hogs.: And j Just’ to show the East that out in the West everybody stays }; young and vigorous an 88-year-old lady of Davenport char- 's tered a special car in which to take her friends to New Haven { to the football game. | I. First it was the Centre college team of Kentucky that ‘ triumphed over the Havard team. Then Chicago last year {beat Princeton. But even then the staid and pompous east |: did not fear a team which came from so far west as Iowa, j unless it was that they didn’t know just the ability of the ; Indians that might make up the Iowa team. : ‘Take your hat off to the western football teams. States- 1 men have tried and failed to make the east believe that the i United States really exists west of the Allegheny mountains, !] but perhaps the western football teams will drive home, the message. 1 i | SPEED CRAZE - ] An army airplane the other day flew at the terrific speed “of over 220 miles an hour.. Lieutenant R. L. Maughan was ,, the pilot. ‘ 4 This was faster than any human being ever had traveled. , A great fuss is being made about it in scientific circles. Ad- 1 mittedly, it was an “accomplishment.” But, after all, are ‘ people being made any happier or the world a better place tof {live in, by American ability to travel at such dizzy speed? « anon f Until the automobile was invented, people took life as it ~came—calmly, happily, without any feverish rush. c auto ushered in a craze for speed. : 1. Everything followed the auto’s lead and speeded up. Fast jliving, of two kinds, arrived. Efficiency experts began. ad- {dusting the processes of life to gasoline-engine pace. The ¢ shipping clerk, was shown how to drive more nails.per min- tute, the hod-carrier how to get more gricks on his hod. 3, People began to gulp their meals, where eating had once been a delightful ceremony, enjoyable, lingering on each mor- a scl oflucious food. Slow, dragging sentimental ballads gave way, to. swift-moving jazz music. Dancing became faster. ¢ Life all around was geared to higher speed. ‘And, with the | process, came a nervous tension, result of noise and rush, i The speed mania, of course, has been less noticeable on farms ‘and in small towns than in the big cities. But they, ; too, are catching the fever. Mr. Farmer wants his news by ?xadio, can’t wait until the rural postman flashes by in his (| overheated flivver. 4 Even the once plodding fisherman, who formerly purred ; with contentment as he rowed to his favorite bass paol, now 4, squirms like a lad with St. Vitus dance, until he gets a motor » to hustle up his beat, also fast-multiplying reels. + — Show people how to move faster, how to shave off a sec- ,onror two, and name your own price. q The auto couldn’t keep up with the public appetite for speed, so the airplane is being developed. Some experts as- fsert ‘that airplanes soon will make 1000 miles an hout. % Sounds probable. g But is this frantic rush really making life more happy? What are we all so afraid of, that we are hurrying to get # past it? It’s a mad rush, by “bundles of nerves,” with no 4 destination. i «Inthe long run, is it any more important than if all rab-| ¢denly speeded up and began rushing about, as we humans 4have in the last two decades, scientists would cry, “Wave of insanity—: ocial neurasthenia.” : Not satisfied, they’re carting us away in auto-hearses. Soon'they’ll learn they can get us buried, quicker by airplane. It’s “the pace that kills.” ‘ In Bayonne, N. J., a home-brew college was found. Grad- ution-was held at the jail.

The comparison appears the more striking when it ig remembered that the church is rrimarily a religious and philan- thropic organization/and is not out for profit. | Gifts to the church have jncreas- | ed more rapidly during the last ten years than during the previous half : century. The phenomenal advance | in giving indicates a changing at-! uraging ,to the 40,000,000 and | mere church members ‘and the | ,000 pastors ard clerical lead-| TS. | In the old days the ice cream so- cial, the “rummage sale” of old) hes, the bazar, the church Sup- | per and kindred money-making de- | vices were regularly listed among the necessary activities for, raising the pastor’s salary. Faithful house- | wives worked themselyes to the point of exhaustion in preparing appetizing chicken sup-| pers which the community, con-' scientiously devoured at 25 cents a! hend and thereafter considered that | it had done its duty by the church. ! Meantime, when the collection plate | was. passed at services, the church members would drop their pennjes) into the receptable and lustily sing “Jesus Paid It All.” | _ A new interpretation of the, ‘meaning of giving, with a new con- jousness of the spiritual value of} the action, has come in the last de-| cade. The spirit of the giver is em-| phasized as much as the amount of the gift. Thus giving has taken on’) a Rew aspect and consequently gifts have increased very greatly. | ‘The change has been accompanied | by the adoption of the -yearly| budgetary system, with an annual! canvass and frequent oversubscrip- | tions, instead cf periodic harangues and a hopelessly chronic inade- quacy of funds.

THE TWINS By Olive Barton Roberts All the magicians and sorcerprs were haivng a meeting under & gloomy, dark cliff. There was, first of all, Twelve jToes, the Sorcerer. It was he who ‘had called the meeting. . Then there was Eena Meena, who lieved on the Dream Star, and Hal- loo-Hallo, who lived in a valley, and Tricky Trixo, who never lived in the Same place twice, and the*Sour Old Witch, who lived under a waterfall, and all of them. They were talking about Nancy and Nick, who were riding back to |Fairyland in a magic automobile. |They were also talking about Light | Fingers, the bad fa:ry, who had tried jto get the automobile away from the twins and couldn't. “Fie én you! For shame!” said iTwelve Toes crossly to ‘the bad jlittle fairy. | Light Fingers hung his head. “very stupid—very stupid in- deed!” remarked Eena Meena stern- ly. “I gave him. a perfectly good dream to-use, and he just wasted it.” Light Fingers hung-his head still more. 7 “And I gave him a magic egg with a stone wall in it,” accused the Sour “Yet here he is—empty handed.” —. By this time Light Fingers’ chin nearly touched his. chest, he was so ashamed of himself. Suddenly Tricky Trixo ‘spoke up. “Did any of.you ever hear of a lasso?” 4 ' Nobody ever had and they were all curious. : \$o Tricky. Trixo explained. what it was and then said, “Why not try it on the magic automobile?” “Fine!
