From the ~aunouncements = Wwhich come from London to the effect that not Lloya George has beep picked out gor formdrly the portfolio which was by Lord Kitchener, it becomes more and more apparent that he is regaid- ed as one of the greatest men of the empire and the work which he has been doing and the mafner {n Which he has been doing it swmust be Te- garded as the reagon for it. Liova’ George has proved to“be a bulwark of strength to Great Britain during the past two years. He has shown himself to be a great organizer and manager in whatever line he un- dertakes and it is therefore not sur- prising that the utmost confidence is placed in him in the handiing of the serious ‘problems which confront the gmpire. His resourcefulness Las been so fully demonstrated that it is but natural that his name should get first consideration when it comes to filling the vacancy created by the great Kitche: It was Lloyd George Who relieved Kitchener of a great of re- spongibility when during the early stages of the war it became appar- ent that it was impossible for ome man to handle the task of organizing the army and looking after the supply of munitions. As minister of muni- tions he has stopped a great handi- cap . from Whicly' thie COUntry “was. suf- fering. - ‘The. ‘business .is. 8o .well organized * today that 'ft can - be said to almost rum that ‘when the suggestion is made that he also. retain that office if’ he becomes minister of war, it must be realized .that in both offices. the hardest part of the work has been ac- complished and that where one man was unable to handle the dutles af an carlier time, it is a far q&um prob- lem today. = Lloyd George has the faculty of making a success of what- ever he undertakes and there can be no serious opposition to his selection for the vacant post. He 1s proving to be the man of the hour in most any crisis. " EDITGRIAL NOTES. The man on the corner says: Most of us have no ear for noise except when we make it ourselves, Unless there is a change pretty seon the Inhabitants' of this part of the country will ‘forget what sunshine looks _like.

The women of this day have no fancy for live snakes or| mice. He often has-to pretend to be a saint to getsin bis work, and sad as it may seem we all know, that now and then he ropes in a clergyman. If this were not so there would not be eight or ten ministers doing time in the government prison at Atlanta, Ga.

There 1s no reason why you forebodings. um!” It is casler to be prepared for a career of good cheer than it is to be prepared for war.

Many pecple who seem cold apd dis- tant to us would be surprised if they knew we thought they. .wera “stuck up.” We should be amazed if we Knew they regarded us as the limit for in- difference and unsociability. If people do not speak to us, or our neighbors do not greet us with a smile, it may be mcre our fault than theirs. There is law. to prevent any one from speaking first or beaming with good nature whether the other party does or not. It is as. natural for some folks to be ifident as it is for others to gur- lo with heartshine and good will. ‘hy should we permit ourselyes to be disturbed by the silence or the stare of any one eise?

FACE. | In his “Ode to Duty,” Wordsworth sings of this “Stern Daugltter of the Nolce of God 1 Nor know we anything so fair f| As is the smile upon thy face, 3 Flowers laugh before thee on their| o% beds 4nd fragrance in thy footing treads. I there is really a “smile” on the face of duty, as the post assures us, many have dificulty in seeing it The expression we are familiar with is more like a scowl. . Duty is not.the best Joved word ‘mn tongue. It the. E:fllsn It has an-austere ling suggestion. The thing and forbidd we oughit to do {8 by no means always that which we love -to do best.. The forced and unchanging routine in which thousands move is held to be a srievance and not a blessing.

His against it. 'In about the same spirit Go multi- tudes of the sons of men g0 to their Gally work—groaning at its and its monatony. & Although we canmot see it, duty wears an aspect of benevolence. The smile is there and it won't come off. It is good for most of 15 to have some- thing we must do each day, whether we feel like doing it or not. If the average worker had to footing. old job. easy be fooled at this point.
