Most of the talk about lack of enforcement » is caused by the situation over the prohibition law, which © is unpopular with many people. It has,.in fact, got so now et that one would imagine the dry law took precedence over @yery other statute on the books. As a matter of fact, it’s no more important than a lot of other laws that are violated every day. *Laws tan’t be enforced unless there is practically unani- =mous support of the people back of them. How far could ‘a judge get if only 30 per cent of the people supported "the law against murder? How far do you expect him to 4 when only 80 per cent of the people honestly and sin- S) veerely support the prohibition law? professional politician. ‘ Ugly Government AVE nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.” William p gilorris, when he said that, rang the knell of the wax | * flowers, the hair cloth sofa, and the conch shell door stop. Modern homes are pleasing, and things useful as well as ital are the mode; true design has entered into fur- furnishings, architecture and landscape gardening, the Mid-West horribles of '84 have gone forever. > Would that some Morris would arise and arouse the mblic spirit to a change in governmental procedure. Sup- Pose the voters had this for their motto: “Have no public jal whom you do not know to be useful, or believe to ionest.” What per cent of the average list of candi- could qualify if efficiency and proved integrity were the test by the voters? As it is today the ability and the integrity of a candi- @ are never considered, whether the man be running lent or for township justice. First comes the tion of party affiliation; then come the particular pet e campaign; then come the lodge, church and Saloon leagu of the candidate; finally mes the voting, and may the worst man win. ‘Word of mouth, secret caucus and scheming determine governing personnel; word of mouth on platform, of mouth in interviews, word of mouth in argument campaign pledge and partisan argument. Yet we ‘would none of us choose our milkman because he belonged to our church, nor our butcher because he believed in the Volstead act, nor our baker because he was a democrat; but our government, that costs us more than a fifth of Our average income (direct and indirect taxation con- sidered), is of less consequence in our thoughts than a pork roast or a pint of cream. “What has this man done? What is he able to do?” ‘That test, applied for a year at every election, would work wonders. It seems to have been the the April spring hat prices. Let's see—wasn't Fall one of those $100,000 men you read about? 2 Try Tours by Water THIS summer, if you are weary of the long processions of automobiles plodding over the roads, why not try the water for a change? A good boat can be bought and ited about as cheaply as a car; places to go are just numerous as those to be reached by roads. _ Seattle power boat men say that yachting and boating Ml coming back into their own, and this is good news. | crowded highways automobiling ceases to be a pleas- re. Out on the Sound the air is pure and there is plenty room for everyone. If a few hundred of us take to power boating we shall fepett ourselves and leave more highway room for the ers. Z . Manager McGraw won't allow his baseball Giants ta play golf, as he wants none but perfect gentlemen on his team. Hard Times Ahead for Wify TI is enough to make a wife shriek. Dictum as to man’s spring styles has arrived here from Paris, The information includes cut and texture of cloth, length of pants, etc., etc., but we don’t care. It’s the color which a fellow must display. “Light greens, pale ochres, ‘yiolent purples, noisy checks and plaids.” Take your choice. A fellow doesn’t care if his pants are on upside down and his coat backside in front, when he has to glide along to Easter services looking like a grandma's patch it, or “pung” of “Green” and “Red Dragons,” or a » “chow” of “Bamboos.” Talk about wife’s seasonal head- : | gear glowing in church! Huh! Prepare for the glitter of her man’s light green or “violent” purple suit! What blow to the interest in wife’s Easter bonnet!

If you talk by telephone from New York to San Francisco, your voice travels thru 740 tons of copper.
