Evidently Doc was not wearing his horseshoe necklace that day. Until the debating class settles the question as to whether it is easier to get into trouble than| to stay out, we are expressing no opnion on that particular point. Trouble can be found by the Fetecn who persist- ently looks for it, is another dy remark you can hang above your roll top desk or try out on vour Edison. The testimony we believe is pre- ponderantly in the affirmative. To get into trouble, taking human ‘ience by and large, seems to demand no great effort. To get out of it, has required the concentration of the best minds of all time since Eve slipped the apple to Adam. Staying out, may be a matter of good fortune, or luck as most people would have it. We know of no reliable formula or charm that will frighten it away, but in the absence of anything certain, you might try keeping your fingers crossed. Speaking of Spankings “QPARE the rod and spoil the child, the story books say, and I agree that youngsters these days need a little more of the rod. I wouldn’t have so many boys and girls in court if more parents would apply the palm of the hand or hairbrush where it would do the most good. A good old spank- ing never hurt anybody, and I know it does a lot of good.” These are the words of Judge ‘Porterfield of the Kansas City juvenile court. The occasion was the presence of a fourteen year old boy in court omplaint of truancy officers. The absolute in- gibility of the boy was learned from the father who testified that this boy had caused more trouble: than six others, all older, which he had at home. ‘ The court ordered the boy to do four things: Go to school every day, go to Sunday school on Sun- ay, obey his parents and report to the court every aturday, The boy declined to promise and was not inter- ested in any phase of the matter. court desired information from the parent as to whether the boy had ever had his share of spank- ings that are passed around in a family of seven. He seemed to be in need of one more at least. The parent’s statement that the boy never had been spanked in his whole existence of fourteen years, rather lifted the court off the bench by sur- prise. In Which Class? RE IS considerable difference between hold it ing down a job and holding up the boss. The hold up system may appeal to you as smart, but it isn’t never was, and never will be, because it is dishonest. We put up with a lot of it during the war, may be, because soldiering was fashionable and again because we could not help ourselves. But it has gone out and there never was a time in the history of this nation when an honest day's work is going to count more for the man who puts it over and the man who gets it and pays for it, than the time just ahead of us. Here is the situation. There is no unemploy- ment in the country for the first time in a long per- iod. All jobs and positions are filled. We are at the beginning of an era of prosperity similar to that which followed the advent of McKinley and the revival of business after 1896. The call will be for producticn, and more production and better production. The skillful, the faithful, the honest, in such circumstance rise to the top. They not only can, but will produce. Their record is a certifi- cate of their character and ability. The boss knows, and hunts them up and gives them advance- ment. What about, the hold up, the doless, the shift: less, the getter-by? Yes, what about him. At that time there is no room in the hive for the drone. If he remains at all he goes back, because right on his heels coming up is a fellow who is better, who has ambition, who has been faithful, who has a rec- ord of honest and intelligent work to boost for him. Who has held down his job and has not held up the boss. It may be a little late, but if you have placed yourself in the hold up calss, you better struggle and get out of it. An Apostle of Bunk {\ORD’S brother-in-law is responsible for the statement that the flivver builder will run for prisedent on the Democratis ticket, if he runs at all. This is as we supposed. The economic heresies of Democracy are a near approach to Fords extra- ordinary ideas of government... Henry declares his- tory is mostly “bunk” and the Democrats look upon the economic history of the United States as bunk when they try to substitute a tariff law at variance with American experience of over a cen- tury. What Do You Know About Them? SPEARING of troubles. Some people glide along through life so smoothly, quietly and unevent- fully that they know not the meaning of the word. These have a visiting acquaintance with Lady Inck, but so far as Old Man Trouble is concerned he is not on the visting list being fully accupied elsewhere. Some wise guy after surveying the trouble sector remarked that they never come singly. It was an accidental shot, but it came so near the truth, so far as human experience is concerned, that it has been pretty generally accepted as the fact ever 8 large ingredjent are not much disturbed by what| comes their way. Encounters with troubles singly or in groups and platoons is a means of enter- taining surplus energy and general scrapping abil- ity. It provides occupation, delivers them from ennui and relieves the dull, drab journey through the lachrymose valley called life. Otbers of less intestines and cheaper fibre are , crushed under a visitation of trouble. They lie down, quit like a steer in the road and give up.| They seldom if ever come back, and drag out a weary existence, martyrs to a sad fate. Again speaking of troubles Dr. Frederick Cook, remembered by readers of arctic f m as hero of mountain climbing expeditions, climber of the north pole and other feats nerve, daring and prevarication, has emerged from the last batch of troubles and is once more a liv- ing example, and one of the best in captivity, of the fact that they do not come singly.

The punishing of children has always been and probably always will be a moot question with par- ents. A great deal depends upon the child, and something depends upon the manner in which pun- ishment is administered. No child has ever bettered by cruel and unusual beating. And no parent is competent to apply corrective methods when in a fit of anger. Study your child, and be wise enough to learn to guide him away from error. Keep him fronv wrong. Be his pal.

Never permit the conven- tion to reach a point where diplomatic relations are completely severed, passports issued, and war declared. That is carrying the joke too far. PTS TD A Litlle Late UST WHAT effect will the criticisms of Mrs. Senator Poindexter, upon cabinet members and other high officials at Washington for acceptance of small emoluments that custom has given to such offices from time long forgotten, have upon her distinguished husband's ambition for further hon- ors, now that his senatorial terms is nearing its end. Official Washington when shown the Poindexter are to have a parallel to the Asquith letters, which set England by the ears.” Judging from Mrs, Poindexter’s first production as the correspondent of a paper out in her own state cf Washington, her methods and motives are entirely different from those of the British states- man’s helpmeet. The latter put on paper a good many of her own little secrets and a few. that be- longed to other people, but there was in her rev- elations no hint of an inclimation to avenge either her husband’s political mishaps or her own loss of social and other eminence by calling attention to the long permitted exploitation of official oppor- tunities by persons whose political fall was still to come. If Mrs. Poindexter seriously thinks that it is wrong for cabinet secretaries to have automobiles at their service—for one of them to use govern- ment boats for his pleasure as well as his busi- ness, and for another to have his table decorated with departmental flowers—she should have said so long ago, not waited till now, when her accusa- tions can be explained in other ways than as the product of superior virtue. ‘When Mr. Asquith heard of the price paid to his wife for her memoirs, he is said to have uttered the pious hope that they were not worth it. Senator Poindexter may have the same feeling in regard to | the compensation received by Mrs. Poindexter for her journalistic contributions—-may, if she is get- ting a lot for them. He may have, also, emotions of which the Englishman showed no signs, for Mrs. Poindexter’s disclosures of things everybody knew and everybody else passed over in polite silence as innocent or trival may create resentments like- ly to interfere with his getting by appointment what he failed to get by re-election—a position and | salary under the government. ‘7 The senator is spoken of for a cabinet position ;and a South American ambassadorship. In either event the appointment comes through the presi- dent and confirmation must be had by the senate. The cabinet ambition in all likelihood will now | have to be abandoned, for the good sister Poindex- | ter could never accept the flowers, band music, and use of naval vessels for little excursions, much less the use of government automobiles, after cry- After all the South American ambassadorship is the best solution.
