REI 1 The S, and N. Pathway > far as we are able to judge there are some public of- ficials in these immediate parts who have shown by their ac- tions their total ignorance of the existence of the well-known straight and narrow path, much less have they worn any grass therefrom by travel thereon, This is a most ‘deplorable situa- tion. The first duty of a public offitial upon assuming office is to form a close acquaintanceship with this pathway and to patronize no other in all of his journeyings. In fact, a thor- ough familiarity with this highly recommended pathway, was, in former times, a prerequisite to election to public office. In more recent times, sad to say, the primary system of election has established onl) fugitive idea of the pathway, trod by honesty and respectability, as the rule. : i It is regrettable, of course, and something must be done about it. We hope that something is on the way. As an aid in more rapidly accomplishing the thing, it is suggested that more aud narrower and straighter pathways be” constructed, and that in existing trails all curves be eliminated and the width be reduced to standard dimension. In addition to this a movement should be inaugurated to popularize the straight and narrow pathway. Rotten Readin’ } Tt is about time that war was declared ov salacious wiga- zines and literature generally, and it is good news to the reud- ing public that hostilities have already begun, Ten mayazines of the worst character, regularly displayed on news counters at Washington, D. ©., haye been barred and forty more are under inspection by the district attorney. Prosecuting attor- neys of Washington are opening a drive. ‘Twenty magazines have been barred in Spokane. Omaha has appealed to federal authorities. The United States attorney in Chicago has begun a drive, and has reported twenty periodicals, with a circula- tion of nearly a’ million, to the postmaster general. This war on rot should encouraged throughout the country. Right here in ¢ yer there is a raft of it on sale.

At least he should decline to handle or sell the kind of matter the law forbids because of its sug: gestiveness and indecency, even though he may find customers willing to purchase it, he An Uneasy Position The strongest motive in the minds of the French in bring: ing them to a decision to make an effort to settle their war debts to America, is to regain their international independ- ence, Briard feels that so long as France stands in her present financial reiation to America, she is not independent, fearing sbe cannot afford to antagonize America on international questions, With an tnsettled debt to America, it would be ex- tremely painful for France to have to refuse an invitation to come to Washington to discuss reducing her army. If debt matters were arranged, the French foreign office would be in a position to refuse flatly. rance wants to make the league of nations a more and more powerful instrument in world affairs, and regarding the United States as an enemy of the leugue, wishes to take the punch out of America’s posi holder of demand notes on France, Make the Most of It It is bruited about the gossip centers that a libel suit is imminent. If such is the case, we hope the suggestion is not out of place, that there be no haste about the matter, for later, causes of action may be grouped and all filed at once. In this way economy may be better observed and a more favorable contract be entered into for prosecution. A more advantageous split may be secured, which ought not to be overlooked. If, already, anything even approaching libel bas been achieved, time may show greater achievements in exposing the truth and the fact. Everything points to the advantage of delay. Truth m be somewhat unpleasant, but no one ever heard « clous. It is the most telling defense th can be he Burden of Laws When it is considered that there are something like two million laws and ordinances now in effect througbout this country and that there are not less than one hundred thousand persons, including congressmen, legislators and councilmen almost constantly at work in the ceaseless brewing of more and yet more laws, is it any wonder that taxes climb upward, the uatural liberties of tlie people invaded, and bolshe vicks are created? Pause and review the situation and determine for y mur self whither we are tending? We have no idea Abolish Formalities One knowing citizen and taxpayer, asks, why bother to draw checks in favor of the treasurer, why not make then di rect to the spending authority. It amounts to the same in the end. The formality is irksome to both taxpayer and the dis burser of tax money, besides it entails bookkeeping and waste of paper. Short cuts of all kinds should be encouraged as time savers, in the general system of economy and reduction of over head in government. Misrepresenting America Numerous Americans in Paris are apologizing becuuse thi country has reminded France that it is time to begin paying the war debt. According to these apologists President Coolidge ig merely “placating” Borah. This reminder does not represent the soul of America—merely the pitiless heart of the pollti cians, Among these apologists are Otto Kahn, former Ambas sador Gerard and George W. Wickersham. There are many other Americans in the French capital who are similarly ev gaged in drawing red herrings across the debt trail Supplanting Old Methods Morern dixplomacy, the doctrine. of which, as emphasized the United #tates, is mutoal helpfulness, hus displaced by wwaaneeweneeeel5 and 16 for publication of all news credited in this paper and aléo the loca! news published herein. —— Steger Bidg., Chicago, ML, 286-Fifth Suite 404 Sharon Bidg.

Yet it seems that with those inflicted on the subjects of the Pharoahs, the supply available for human torment was hardly tapped, for in this late day—nearly 3,000 years ‘ater—we know a nation writhing under some of the most insufferable plagues in the history of the race of Adam— the plagues of professional busy- bodies, holy humbugs’ and pious pests, * They are everywhere. They Inject themselves into everything, They drag thelr religion and religious vag- aries into every field of endeavor and th buzz around the halls of legislation: around the military and naval establishments, where they are regarded as a greater pest than a swarm of mosquitoes around a Jer- sey swamp. Precious few of the breed but have axes of one kind or other to grind. They fatten on notoriet and in this they are ably abetted a time-serving press. Other peoples’ morals are their all- absorbing passion. Not a few of these self-constituted censors of public ethics are of the so-called gentle sex. This, much to the dis- gust of the vast majority of self re- specting women. But, as already’ Practice Makes Perfect One of the philosophers observes that no man is so formed that he can be left entirely to hiniself. to go his own ways; every one needs to be guided by some preconceived plan, and to follow certain general rules. To understand a rule governing conduct of others, even to discover it for one’s self and to express it clearly, is easy enough; and still, yery soon afterward, the rule may be broken in practice. But that is no reason for despair: and you need not suppose that ab it Is impossible tu regulate your life in accordance with abstract ideas and maxims, it is better to live just as you please. Here, as in all theoretical’ instruc. tion that alms at a practical result, the first thing to do is understand the rule; the second thing Is to learn the practice of it. The theory may be understood at once by an effort of reason, and yet the practice of it acquired only in course of time, It you go In for tennis, or golf, or any other game, you know how hard It is at first to play exactly as you know you should. A pupil may learn the various notes on a musical instrument; and when he makes a mistake, os he ts sure to do, however hard he tries, he is apt to think {t will be impos. sible to observe the rules when he is set to read music at sight. But gradual practice makes him perfect, through a long series of siips, blunders and freeh efforts. It is just the same in other things. But though self-discipline of this is the result of long habit, it always works by a sort of what Schopen- hauer calls external compulsion, which Nature never ceases to resist and sometimes unexpectedly over. comes. The difference between action in accordance with abstract principles, and action as the result of original Innate tendency, ts the same be tween a work of art, say a watch— where form and movement are im pressed upon shapeless and inert —and a living organism ¢ form and matter are one, and each is inseparable from the other.

Even in ‘foreign ports we are con: stantly hearing of American seamen being “helped” by the holy brothers of pious sisters, as if the sturdy tars were a race of weaklings and im- beciles. The writer, in his younger days, was thrown much in contact with American seamen, especially around the Norfolk navy yard and Hampton Roads. We are convinced beyond peradventure of a doubt, that if there ever was a class of men capable of taking care of themselves it is Yankee sailors. But the “help: ers” get their names and pictures in the papers, with columns of fulsome flapdoodie, and this they capitalize for all \t {s worth. It is refreshing to know that: we have, here In Wyoming, one man— like a pyramid in a desert~who has the courage to say what he thinks of the breed of modern Pharisees— Shoshoni’s grand old man, J. D. Woodruff. If we only had more like Mr. Woodruff, we would have less of the plague of fakes, frauds and fanatics. —ELKHORN RANCH, WYO,, —_——_ Why Are You Yourself? The good gentlemen who are busy preaching the Supremacy of the Nordics should muse over this a bit; “The differences between one na- tion and another, whether in intel lect, commerce,*art, morals, or gen- eral temperament, ultimately depend, not on any mysterious properties of race, nationality, or other unknown and unintelligible abstractions, but simply and solely upon the physical circumstances to which they are ex- posed." Grant Allen, who made the obser- vation some years ago, reasoned that if it is a fact, as we know it to be, that the French nation differs recognizably from the Chinese, an# the people of Hamburg differ recog: nizably from the people of Timbue- too, then the notorious and conspicu- ous differences between them are wholly due to the geographical po- sition of the various races. In other words, if the people who went to Hamburg had gone to Tiin- huctoo, they would now be indis- tinguishable from the sem!.barbarian negroes who inhabit that African metropolis: and if the people who went to Timbuetoo had gone to Hamburg, they would now be blonde merchants, busy preparing imitation whiskeys and wines for the American bootleg trade. “The differentiating agency must be sought tn the great permanent geographical features of land an sea,” Allen argued. “These hay necessarily and inevitably moulded the characters and histories of every nation upon the earth, “We cannot regard any nation as an active agent in differentiating Eczema quickly yields to Resinol No matter how long you have baen tortured or disfigured by itch- ing, burning, raw or scaly skin trou- ble, just v4 a little soothing Resinol Ointment on the irritated ‘suffering does not stop right there!
