V Gasoline if GIVE THE PEOPLE CLEAN PAPER MONEY There is no question but what the new paper money of smaller size than that now in use will be received by j all with the greatest satisfaction. For one thing these notes will all be .clean, easy to handle and take up less room. The uniortunate part is t :at the government will permit these t dirty and vermin infected as those discarded for the new. There is enough . pure, sheer, wanton waste in the departments at Washington to more than keep the country supplied with fresh currency and issued but once from the banks as is the case in England. We are penurious on a small scale and spendthrifts upon a large scale. The truth is that our paper cuirency as a rule is disgrace ful. Those who insist upon clean cause it is a lot of wasted time in picking out new currency. If some public spirited statesman in congress should offer a resolution . . . . T . . . 1 1.1 ' directing mat me treasury siiumu ionly issue paper currency but once. and then the resolution requiring all banks under control of the govern ment to only hand out to their cus- j torae-dean, crisp papr money, he j would be regarded with disfavor and ! receive but scant countenance at the hands of those who could carry it i bureau of engraving and printing !sums up the saving as follows and it is of the inmost interest ! A. W. Hall, director of the bureau ,'of engraving and printing, has fig- jured that the curtailment in the size of paper money will save the govern ment eighteen thousand seven hun died and forty miles of paper three and an eighth inches wire, or enough to cover ten hundred-acre farms. He's jgone even further in his figuring, has Mr. Hall; the government will save four hundred and fifty-nine tons of ink in nrintine the smaller sized bills, and 14,100r.cubic feet of stor ing space for each; denomination of note carried in' stock. If you think paper money doesn't weigh anything ponder this: Mr. Hall estimates there will be 857, 017, 60S old bills turned in for replacement with the new is sue. And those bills weigh approxi mately 3.000,000 pounds, according to the director. However, most of us wouldn't object to having our pockets pulled out of shape with few pounds of Uncle Sam's money. It may be again asked is there no way by which the people can be fur nished with clean, new paper cur rency as is done in other countries? It might cost a trifle but then we are rich in natural resources. :o: CONTEMPT OF COURT Two Cleveland newspaper editors were sentenced to jail because they dared to criticize a Federal judge for his refusal to grant an injunction to restrain gambling at n race track. Race track gambling is a crime under the laws of the state of Ohio This alone was sufficient Justifi cation for the criticism, no matter how harsh it may have been. The newspaper editors were not in contempt of court, but the Fed eral judge unquestionably has a feel ing of contempt for the statutes of the state of Ohio. The judge, not the editors ought to go to Jail. The editorial criticism was fair and truthful. The accuracy of what was said in the articles has not been questioned. Nevertheless the editors have been ordered to Jail. They ought to feel proud of the privilege of serving sen tences under such circumstances. Some judges are so fat-headed that they cannot distinguish the differ ence between proper comment, legiti mate criticism, and contempt of court. There would be very few contempt proceedings of Judges if they did not raake themselves objects of contempt. :o: TREATING THE LAWN EIGHT Hot dry weather and closely clip ped lawns, is liable to kill the grass. The mower should be adjust so that it cuts as high as possible. During wet weather abundant top growth is produced without heavy root growth. Then when hot weather comes there is not sufficient root surface to sup port the top. The best remedy is to furnish shade on the lawn. This may be accomplished by a mulch or by leaving the grass stand at least an inch talL 'TWAS EVER THUS It isn't right to swipe your wife's false teeth to keep her from talking. At least, that is what a San Fran cisco judge ruled the other day when a wife haled her husband into court and testified that he had taken away her artificial molars for that pur pose. Furthermore, it seems to have been a habit of this particular husband indicating that the wife of his bosom is a woman of unusual loquacity. "I can't eat or talk when he does that," wailed the toothless wife. Whereupon the Judge ordered that the teeth be restored to their right ful owner, and the couple departed for their home, no doubt to engage in another verbal combat. :o: We were very much interested and sympathetic, too to read Mrs Gann's social policy as outlined in her interview in the Ladies' Home Journal, particularly that part which sets forth that social precedence in Washington must be based on loyalty to the flag, devotion to the govern ment, and defense of the Constitu tion, and of all these the vice-presi dent is a symbol. And we are quite sure it was great news to Charley. :o: The ups and downs of a reporter's life, as one imagines, he runs a story down and writes it up, and thinks and writes them down, and writes people up and runs them down and the people call up and call him down See-saw.
