Smith, and there will be no obstacles placed in their way, though jov.

Planning the garden is usually matter for early Spring. Frequently, say the horticulturists of the United States Department of Agriculture, it might better be done the previous summer. Often in the fruit or vegetable garden there come times when only a small supply of vegetables is available. At the same time neighbors who planted different varieties, or planted at differ- ent times, will be enjoying the benefits of the garden and a succession of its products. At that time it is possible to take of present deficiencies and to prepare to remedy them the following year. A sheet of paper for preserva- tion of summer resolutions will prove helpful when the early gardening period returns again. Also it is well to observe effective groupings of perennials and annuals in neighboring gardens with a view to rearrangement, transplanting, or sowing of seeds to obtain the most beautiful ar- rangements of the gardens. In many sections of the country offers the best opportuni for planting new shrubs and trees. Plans should be made to fit these with those already placed and with prospective plantings, For best results in gar- dening and landscaping, plans should be laid well in advance and adhered to from year to year. a notice the autumn e O CANNOT DELIVER THE GOODS. Evidence is accumulating that those preacher- politicians—mostly Methodists and Baptists—who are attempting to deliver the votes of the com- municants of their churches into the ballot boxes will be sadly disappointed. Americans may be willing to take their theology from their pastors but they draw the line at political dictation. A minister of the gospel has the same right to exercise his citizenship his judgment and conscience dictates any one else, but when preachers, as Bishop Cannon and Dr. Barton and others did, tell a National Convention that they represent so many million Methodists or so many million Baptists, or as one woman church worker of Missouri said, “I represent twelve million praying women,” they simply do not tell the truth., The praying men and women of the United States do their own representing when they go to the polling booths. The Methodist Board of Temperance, Pro- hibition and Public Morals will discover that it is doing far more damage to its church than it is doing good for the political party that it is trying to serve by making politics its principal theme. as as MASONS CAUTIONED TO SHUN POLITICS. The 250,000 Masons of New York State were urged by Grand Master John A. Dutton, in an address delivered at Utica, to perform their duties as citizens of the country and take an interest in governmental but were ad- monished to keep the Fraternity free from politics in the coming election and not discuss political affairs in the lodge Speaking to his District Deputy Grand Mas- ters, his personal representatives in all the sixty- two districts, Grand Master Dutton specificaly advised the deputies to carry to the more than 1,000 lodges the caution to refrain from med- dling in politics in any way. ¥ “I believe each of the members should take an Interest in Government affairs,” he said, “but I want nothing said or insinuated by speech or otherwise, by deputies or by indiividual lodges.” Never before this season have more or bet- ter satisfied tourists visited Alaska and never G 4 _more to make the visits Masonic | R| | | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1928. ittractive.

What stands out most prominently in the ex- change between William Allen White and Gov. Smith the almost incredible looseness of Mr. White's language and information When Gov. Smith shows him that his ‘““facts” are all wrong, Mr. White cannot even tell where hi tements came from. He vaguely s that they based on articles published in New York newspapers. Mr. White knows better. No New York ne paper of standing, even if bitterly opposed to Gov. Smith, would print such a farrago of falsehoods. The origin of these staements is written plainly all over them-—they frem one or another of those fanatical-fo superintendents” with which ew York afflicted; and Supt. 0. R. Miller is quick to declare that it was he who sent Mr. White his data. Mr. White's diatribe, and the swift confusion it has brought down on his head, ought to serve as an impressive warning to Republicans. A whole school of irresponsible stump speakers and writers have undoubtedly been preparing to take just Mr. White's line. They were ready to pic- ture Gov. Smith as a friend of gambling and prostitution; to hold him up as one who wanted the saloons running wide open on Sunday; and to describe him, as Mr. White so ingeniously attempted, as man who preferred the drinking- den to the church and the school. They were pre- pared to echo Wr. White's assertion that he threatened ‘‘the whole Puritan civilization” of this country. But the Kansas editor's bad fall should tea them a lesson The total and obvious ty of such attacks can be nailed on the instant, and they merely make friends and votes for the Governor. If anything were needed to cap Wr. White's performance it is furnished by his little night- mare regarding the Supreme Court. He predicts that if Gov. Smith is elected three Justices of the Supreme Court will hasten to die, and he will appoint in their stead wet jurists who will “declare the Eighteenth Amendment unconsti- tutional before a cat could wink her eye.” This is beyond comment. Granting that Gov. Smith is as Machiavellian as all this; granting that he would suddenly go insane enough to 'try to pack the Supreme Court on a controversial ques- tion; granting that the Senate would abdicate all its powers of refusing confirmation — since when did three justices out of nine have the power to hand down decisions? Really, the ravages of the heat wave must have been terrible in Emporia. Gov. is come Pulp Mill Waste Not Harmful to Fish. (Port Angeles News.) Liquor waste from pulp mills is not harmful or clams or other fish life, relates Trevor Kincaid and other University professors who have made the Japanese in Seattle who eat Port Angeles devil fish will probably be pleased at the news, although anyone who would eat devil fish would not complain of liquor waste from pulp mills. Several years ago a plaint was heard from 2diz Hook fishermen that the Washington Pulp and Paper Corporation waste water had slaught- ered devil fish in the bay. The truth was the fishermen themselves had caught so many breed- ers that they all but ruined their own industry. The chemists, with a local health officer and a newspaper man, made exhaustive tests of the waters of Port Angeles Bay. It was to be alive with the vitamins and proteins or whatever it is that makes fish thrive. It was proved that the surging tides entirely scoured and cleaned and purged the harbor of any microbes with bad man- ners or halitosis.

Telling a woman @ shoe is com- fortable is as muech of a recom- mendation of it to her as telling a man spinach is good for him is one of it to him Having to go back for something especially if they are late—ap- pears to be as much a part of a woman’s nature as swimming is of a fish's. It doesn’t surprise a wife much to find the number of clerks a man needs at the office wh she considers how helpless he is about inding a-clean shirt or a pair of socks that are right where they ought to be and always have been. There are times when it seems to a man that the real curse placed on the male of the species was having to shave every morning. It would surprise some men more to come home at night and find a good dinner that was ready on time more than it would to come home and find their wives had run off with their chauffeurs. An average man is one who would always be wearing the model of three or four years ago if the styles in the made attire changed as often as they do in feminine clothes. In the effort to find new shades for hosiery no effort seems to be made to get one that will make ccording to a news legs less noticeable. A woman can get as much kick out of spending a dollar in the 10 cent store as a man can out of spending a thousand in the bond market. It is abcut as hard for the wife of a salaried man to dress on the allowance she gets as it is for a fat man to dress in an upper berth. The infatuated youth who thinks he would give up everything for his Queen can learn from any old married man that among all steady jobs none gets more monotonous than that of giving up everything. Men think more of their own comfort than they do about retali- ating, otherwise they would grow whiskers to get even with the wo. men for messing up their faces the way they do. ———— NOTICE The motorship Oregon wiii sail from Seattle for Juneau August 1st.
