WASNDTG Tho world is full of people who de light in seeing a can tied to some oth er man's dog. :o: A bullet traveling at 2,300 feet per second wculd take over six years to reach the sun. :c: Sinca we learned that lions which formerly brought $1,000 can now be .ought for $150, we seem to have lost interest in owning one. : o : In discussing who won the war it might be kept in mind that the for :r.er kaiser .has lived to be 75 years old ar.d is still worth 160 million dollars. :o : It has been asserted several times that there won't be any fan dancers , r.t the Chicago lair this year. This compels us to inquire nervcusiy what they've decided to use instead. :o: The governor of Indiana says it costs the state $300 to keep a pris oner a year, which was the first in timation since the Dillingcr escape that Indiana ever kept a prisoner a year. :o: Napoleon was a last eater and this habit of eating fast and carelessly is commonly supposed to have paralysed him cn two of the most critical oc casions of his life, r.t the battles ol Borodino ard Leipsie. :o: Perhaps the man who went to Washington and whose car immed iately succeeding in striking the auto cf no less a reison than Vice-President Garner might aptly be termed "the boy who made good." :u: Almost every day since starting. on !:'i.V trip, : President Roosevelt' 'has found the fishing very pcor. Well, if the fish want to pass up tho best chance in their lives to get their pic tures in the papers, it's ther own nL'air. :o: Mary Garden blames Samuel In still for the downfall cf the Chicago opera, because he didn't know any thing about music. Well, that's been known to happen before in the case of persons who hang around opera companies. Too often the way of America with the criminal is to hunt, find, lose and then start hunting again. :o: Along with the dust sicrm, black snow is reported in South Dakota. Blowing off the Black Hills, no doubt. :o: Economics can be made ever so much more fascinating than cross words, as even the boys who get it up den't know the answers. :o: There are more motor cars than telephones in use In the United states. Naturally, as you can't ride by your neighbor in a telephone. :o: A nice thing about having a slow car is that a person can get in it and chase soma of these desperadoes without taking any chances of catch ing up with them. :o: A Detroit woman, describing her recent voyage homeward from the rhilirpiner., said, "I felt like a gang- This seems about a3 good a time as any for cur annual warning against the insidious ravages of that vague and subtle affliction colloquial ly known as spring fever. Just be cause tho weather is fine ar.d the again, just because the trees are bo ginning to bud and show leaf, is no reason for permitting oneself to lapse into a state cf comatose and futile that is, reverie is not thinking. There is, indeed, a. vast, if not fatal, differ ence between thinking and reverie. In the first place, thinking is not well, whatever it is, it is net reverie. People have to keep their wits about them even if it is spring. As Dr. My ers has pointed out no, it was Com missioner Wirt anyway, either Dr. Myers or Commissioner Wirt point ed cut that that thinking is not reverie. It is no picnic to think.

Is it on the march to Moscow? Perhaps Mr. Minor is a poor judge oZ revolutionary tendencies. Perhaps lie cannot detect a red radical in dis guise. Perhaps a potential comrade in the brain trust would escape his trained c: e. Be that as it may, in hij NItA address ho spoke his mind freely, at tho invitation of General Johnson, and, if we are to believe him, the new deal is just another deal for caiitali::m.

Is the college boy of 21 today a match for his granddad at the same age? Are bis interests and avoca tions those of a man or those of a answer themselves. The infancy, ad rdosrer.ee? and youth of rjedern boys and girls are unnaturally prolong ed by fond parents who take from tie children as much responsibility as they can. Cf course, modern life dees not call on the talents of youth as life did in a pioneering society.

And jsrmctimos the religion we get under adversity brines backsliding cn the morrow.

The only surprise is that the win ter is forgotten before spring is fully here. With many millions still un employed in the cities and most farm era on the property line, with many industries and communities yet un touched by the beginning of recov ery, the loss of memory is at least t smew hat premature.
