It nay be that a military man wouldn't use his Influence to strengthen the military establishments of the country, ton.

Hardly a ripple of excitement. If there are such enor mous numbers of reds, they have de cided to leave May day in the mem ory as a time for children to hang May baskets.

The adoption by the federal reserve bank board of a plan for progressive redisaounting, the ef fect of which will be to automatical ly Increase Interest rates, Is bound to mean something, and there are all kinds of Ideas ss to Just what Is due to happen. For Instance, soma say hat it Is slmjrtf a trick of the poll ticians to make lure that ft repub lican administration Is elected and It Is fairly certain that a big or even a small panic at this time would further discredit the democrats. An other Idea is that the financial inter ests are out to "get" the unions and that sounds plausible, too. That's the trouble with explanations, they are too easily made and they, fall to explain, .

Today's Meet Story. In the days when Kansas was one of the pioneer "dry" states, a vener sble negro appeared at the office of the mayor of Atchison, and asked as sistance to obtain some wine. "Who are you and what do you want it for?" SBked the mayor. "Ah is de Rev. Phineas Jones, D. D.,". was the reply, "and ah wants dls yere wine for sacreligious pur poses. Ah done been told dat you can git It fo dat" . - "You mean 'sacramental,' don't you?" "Yes. sah, dafa It. Do ah get It?" "Well," said the mayor, "we can give you a permit for wine for such purposes. What kind do you want?" "Well," answered the "reverend," "de congregation done took a vote on it las' Sunday, and dey is unamolous fo' gin." ".ai-rr--?.,.. During the latest rainstorm, one thing was apparent. The crossing with the most cinders was the least muddy. There was one crossing on Box Dutts aVenue where a man could cross without getting his ears dirty. i Now that the experiment has Droved successful, we trust those kindly paving contractors will get busy and fix up a couple more before the next rain. We might vote as to which cross ing should be cindered next. They were watching the construc tion of one of the city's new build ings. "They tell me," one or them said, "that one of those bricklayers laid two bricks in one morning. And he did it all by himself, too. Didn't even have a helper." Horace Greeley's rule for writing a good editorial was: "Write it, pol ish it then cut it in two and run the last half." We recommend this to our longer- winded brothers. Horace was no amateur.'
