He conuth forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow and continueth not. Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast ap pointed his bounds .that he cannot pass; turn from him that he may rest till he shall accomplish, as an hire ling, his day. For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease. But man dieth and wasteth away; yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he? As the waters fall from the sea. and the flood decayeth and dri tth up; so man lieth down, and ris eth not: till the heavens be no more. Job xiv, 1 to 12. He who sings frightens away his ills.

Smith tells Tammany Hall that he cannot, in justice to his personal fortunes, lead again the state ticket in New York. This pronouncement of the governor is of an interest wider than local boundrrios. Few men of the last generation have appealed to the peo ple so keenly as this man who went from the East Side to Albany. His popularity is a national asset of his irrevocable decision. Many leaders on both sides of the presidential fight believe the election 'or the de feat of John W. Davis depends upon the action of "Al" Smith. With the ; tremendously pepuar governor of (New York running for re-election on the anti-klan plank written by Mr. , Davis, ingenuity even beyond the capabilities of common sense, it is thought, will be required on the part (of republicans to keep Davis and Smith from sweeping the state. BRYAN'S ANSWER TO DAWES ;Ia his Elk Point S. D.) speech. 3ov. Bryan pretty well annihilated the substance of Mr. Dawes' proposal that the problems of the farmer be taken care pf by a commission of ex perts, on ithe plan of the ppeclal rep aratlons committees, to ascertain just what it is the farmer needs and to make recommendations to con gress and the executive accordingly, Ir. .Dawes, not being a politician or a demagogue, must have over looked the fact that a Joint congres signal commission on agriculture was created and tried out under the Harding administration. This com mission was appointed with the same purpose as that which Mr. Dawes proposes. It .made severe reports on the necessity .of lower freight rates, the need of more liberal financial fa cilities for the farmer, the margin of profits taken by middlemen and like subjects. According to Gov. Bryan, the administration "has not carried out a single recommendation suggested by that commission." It is a 6imple matter for a candi date In Mr. Dawe3 position to evade committment on agricultural issues by proposing an agency that will sweep the farmers' troubles into one bag and dispose of them. But, as Gov. Bryan suggests, it would per mit the candidate to get by an elec tion without committing himself to anything, and as the preparation of a report may consume years condi tions in the meantime may have changed. The farmers of the country un doubtedly are tired of waiting for investigators and being diagnosed and lectured about. They are ready for a program and the candidates who cannot formulate one on the vol ume of authoritative. data already ac cumulated is not likely to win their approval. :o: AUTUMN IS HERE It may not seem so, when one glances at the thermometer, but au tumn is officially here. The begin ning of September marks the open ing of autumn, regardless of fluctu ations of the mercury. Season of pale blue haze and mel-lov.- golden morns; season of waving corn, fields white with cotton and high blue skies and brisk winds; sea son of patient rains; season of woods ablaze; season of glowing fruits; time of the year's completion. To the young, autumn may seem a sad time, a time of preparation for the year's long simulation of death, a time when unseen hands are weav ing the white winding sheet of win ter. Spring's the joy time when there's life abounding; when hope is on the verdant threshold of realiza tion; it's the love time, the time of youth's reality. Summer is the warm and ardent season, the season of strong maturity. But autumn, what's autumn? Is it Indeed, the time of senes cence?. Is it the season of "melan choly days?" Or is it, rather, the part of the year which is truly com plete, the part of the year all satis fied and calmly resting in the twi light? And what a glorious twilight! The dim horizons of September, tran quil and tranquilizing. The brisk days of brown October brown Octo ber? Nay, rather, October of incom parable glory; for jubilant spring can show no splendor to compare with "brown" October's woods. And then the still and solemn days which are November's type; the days when Indian summer makes all the earth placid hours when the rain comes pattering its sleep-song all through the night. Let us not, then, look to autumn for sadness. Rather let us under stand autumn's true significance and make the most of it. Playtime is past, to be sure. Autumn Is work time, but it is time for good work without weariness, and time for full est enjoyment of what play can be snatched. It is not a funeral time. It is truly a time for rejoicing for each autumn's promise, and au tumn's promise is never unfulfilled. :o: HANK AND THE K. K. K. Henry Ford says the Ku Klux Klan is not so bad as some persons have painted it. Perhaps Henry took his cue from conversation handed him by President Coolidge over the old sap bucket in Plymouth. When a man is fed up on cheese, as they say the president fed Henry, he is likely to say most anything, anyway. Likely as not Henry was ill from indigestion when he met the reporters. .Besides, Henry was talking in Can ada, which i3 not so far, as every body knows, from Maine, where the party of his host at Plymouth is de pending on the Klan vote to beat the wicked democrats. And, finally, Henry believes in per sonal liberty. If man elects to walk around wrapped up in a sheet and with his head under a hood, why shouldn't he be allowed to do it?

"Our people in Texas supported her from the outset, not because of a suffrage record but for the simple reason that she is a woman. The National Woman's party is not supporting nominees of the old parties because they are such but because .they are women. Party labels make no differ ence to us." Unless Miss Paul is misquoted she and her colleagues are committed to a policy of sex discrimination which is merely the obverse of the old an ti-suffrage doctrine. Those who op posed the nineteenth amendment did so because they wanted to keep worn en out of politics. Those who vote for women candi dates without reference to their par ty affiliations or beliefs do so be cause they want to keep men, as men, out of politics Wherever they can. There can be no other explana tion of such a rule of political ac tion. The woman'' party could argue of course, that men have too long com pletely dominated the political world and that there is no danger of replacing too many of them with women. This cannot be denied. But there is a danger in indorsing all the candidates of one sex, for women have no corner on ability or fitness for office. To assume that it is al ways better when possible to elect a woman rather than a man is to as. sume that good government is less mportant than the extention of pow er to women. If Miss Paul meant this, the power which she herself possesses is in poor hands. :p: A Birmingham, Ala., man who drove an auto with one hand will have to walk with one foot when he gets out.
