Paul, Jr.. a member of the Drexel banking firm. The bill for the flowers alone was $35,000. And among the novelties was five hundred gor- geous butterflies brought from Peru, Brazil and even far off India, and let loose to perch on the shoulaers of the guests and even fal: into plates of the banqaeters. The entire expense of the ball is estimated at $100,000. There no stringency in the money market when this banker .de- sired to entertain. was 4 ase A bill has been introduced jn con— gress by Congressman Ollig James to restore to the coins the motto “In God We Trust.” -Mr, James in_re- cent interview said: “After six years of flourishing the big stick, President Roosevelt has at last removed one trust. that’s ‘In ‘[elows to religion and morality that] | has ever been given in this country. have not given a passing thought.

Such an argument, in the land. Mr. expressed the national gratitude to the Creator.” ss It appears from the latest develop-|may deceive and defraud you, ments that the state board of health has not abolished quarantine forsmall- pox entirely but will insist that local health boards perform their duties io this regard in the future. Regarding this matter the Minneapolis Journal has the following to say ina recent issue: “The state board has not abolished quarantine for smallpox, and it will probably be enforced as widely as ever. The primary duty of establish- ing quarantine rests with local healib officers, and in most cases they en- force it strictly. The state board has only a supervisory relation. In the nine years the board has compelled local authorities to quarantine in a number of epidemics, but because of general in safeguarding against the spread of smallbox, it is just as prevalent now asat any time within four or five years. The out- looseness ‘breaks are local and not serious in character, but they are more numerous than ever. ‘The state board’s action merely means that 1b bas had enough of the thankless and ineffectual! task of forcing local boards to do their duty. It is now up to the local officers and the people, if they are tired of the smallpox menace and really want to end it.” Re Corea It is remarkable what the people of today have to contend with and what rays of light are shed upor the vexa- tious questions of the hour by the learned gentlemen that: have been cailed by reason of their erudition— and incidentally the salary-to preside over some of our colleges and univer- sities. One of them has just dis- covered that the honored old consti- tution of the United States is out+ worn. As he puts it, “our constitu- is inadequate to enable the nation to solve the many pressing problems relating to. our society, industry and politics.” The grand old document that was the handiwork of patriots and states- men, is no longer fit for d guide to the people of this land of the free and tiome of the boodler, After all the years that the ship of state has sailed under its guidance and weathered every storm, weare now told that there are rocks and shoals that the old chart does not show and we must have a new one. May it not be that the fault is in the people and not the constitution? The professor says. *‘Ours are the twentieth problems, and our faces must be toward the twen- tieth century, with all threatening but giorious outlook.” Just so. But would not the turn- faces away from some of the glittering idealities of the pre- sent day, ana getting back to the tion century ing of our simple, honest lives of the men who| founded this republic be of as much or more benefit than a new constitu: tion? grab, scranible, greed and crime that would haye given the honest, up- right menof the early days: of this nation apprendicitis on both sides of the veriform appendix. it all we are told by these wise men, whose colleges and universities are many of them the beneficiaries of the illbegotten wealth of the trusts, that we musticast aside the faith of the forefathers and start anew. The professor’s final conclusion is to “call a national constitutional convention, adopt a new instrument and subject it to the people for their approval or rejection.” What good will this do? Will not the men who have lost all respect for the old constitution and find ready means to evade its wise and benefi- cent provisions. do so with anew one just as readily? peat ho aes If it’s to be printed the Herald-Re- view will print it. its Weare living in an age of!
