Cleveland voters the other day, for the third time, defeated a proposal submitted to them to abandon the City Manager and Commission plan of government for the old Mayor and City Council sys- tem. The movement for a return to the old system was led by formay Mayor of Cleveland and former Governor of Ohio Harry L. Davis, an astute political leader of the old school. The campaign was a hot one throughout, and charges of graft and waste were freely made against City Manager Hopkins and the other municipal offic The Cleveland Plain Dealer led the fight for the retention of the Man- ager-Commission plan and the defense of Manager Hopkins's Administration. It declared emphatically that “beyond questi Cleveland has had under the manager plen the mo: conomical, businesslike, effi- cient and sa rnment in many years.” The verdict of the people sustained the Plain Deal- er’s position. The people generally will be glad that the people of Cleveland have determined to give the Manager- Commission government a thorough test. It is important to other large cities that a city of a million inhabitants should try out a system that has worked well in smaller towns. If it is a suc- cess in Cleveland it might serye to improve muni- cipal government in other large cities...

Paulson who has served as Superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League in Ne- braska and New Jersey, several years in e Stat, has resigned to take the pastorate of a Congrega- tional Church at McKeesport, Pennsylvania, and celebrated the occasion by declaring that the church- es must re in in politics. He said the churches were responsible for Prohibition and they have as- sumed the responsibility of seeing that it remains the law of the land. He continued: Politicians all too frequently muss up the attempts of the church to form char- acter; it then becomes necessary for the church to muss up things politjcal by turn- ing on the light that people may see the ——— ——] e e S S HRDLICKA HAS |7 7rorsssionaz In 1927 the Rev.

Nor- do they con- | an sider that they will find grammar a hard subject | to dodge. If the old rules are banned, ungram- | matical speech will become standardized, new rules; will supplant the old, and the younger generation will still be hampered by language lessons. All this | effort to be free is reminiscent of the young psychology student who tried to avoid forming habits in order to keep from being a slave to any. A practical argument advanced by the non- grammarians is that the change would mean a sav- ing of $10,000,000 a year. The Soviet Commissioner of Education is said to favor it.

Rain turned the extensive camp into some- | thing resembling a quagmire, and when the Arch-| bishop of Canterbury visited the park his car had to be drawn through the mud by a tractor. Yet| through all this unpleasantness and inconvenience the Scouts have been cheerful, setting an example | to other people. They have had much to hearten them, much to set the seal of a great experience on the Jamboree. There was the visit of the Prince of Wales, who stayed with them overnight and next day addressed them. He brought a stirring mes- sage from the King, the Archbishop preached a sermon that appealed at once to. boyhood imagina- tion- and to maturity's responsibilities, and encour- aging” hiéssages have also been received from the League of Nations and President Hoover. Decidedly the Jamboree has been a success. Various causes are assigned to the recent fires in California, but they all come to one fault—care- lessness. And the form of carelessness most often mentioned is carelessness with tobacco. It is taken for granted that men must smoke—nobody seriously proposing to prohibit that—but it is urged that they do so carefully—(San Francisco Chronicle.) Something like 200,000 francs is paid every day in Paris alone to soothsayers, fortune-tellers and assorted star-gazers. This figure is based on in- stigations by a French newspaper. — (New York ‘Times.)
