The cabinet atmosphere is one ol
resignation these days.
-:o:
Our observation is that an indus
trious man is seldom indignant.
-:o:-
Laugh and the world laughs with
you; sneeze and you find yourself
alone.
-:o:
In stock speculation always buy
at the bottom prices and then be
prepared to see the bottom drop out.
:o:
Nc one knows quite as much about
the wickedness of men as an old
maid who knows nothing at all
about it.
:o:
I'liday is usuallv shunned as a
wadding day except by couples who
have been divorced and are trying
out a remarriage.
:o:
The Atchison Globe describes a
man who has recovered from the
flu as looking like a motor car that
had been traded four or five times.
-:o:-
I'nU's; our memory is at fault, it
was just about this time a year ago
when our thoughful leaders first be
gan seeing a drop in the cost of liv
ing. :o:
It appears that Admiral Sim? not
only did not permit the British
navy to pull the wool over his eyes,
but alo did not permit anybody
else to either.
:o:
The comptroller of the currency
says much of the present prosperity
is false, owing to the inflation of
currency. There's one satisfaction
to poor pa his poverty is no cheap
imitation.
:o:
Sir Oliver Ixulge's estimate of
twenty million years before the earth
will become po cold as to inhabitable
is based on the natural course of the
earth's radiation, and makes no al
lowance for coal strikes.
-o:
The allies musi want pretty badly
to have the German war guilty tried
if they are willing to let the Ger
mans do the trying, but perhaps
they have come to feel that half a
trial is better than none.
-:o:
If you know of anyone who wants
to send you to Berlin on a salary of
say $".000 a year, now is the time
to accept the offer. You can live
like a millionaire in Berlin now on
$2.00 a year. But who wants to
be there?
-:o:
The French army is being recon
structed so as to be stronger than
ever before. At the head of it will
be a supreme council of war presided
over by the minister of war and in
cluding Marshals Petain. Foch and
Jorfre and nine generals.
; ; :o:
A movement has been proposed to
abolish the time periods from foot
ball, in order that the leading may
not injure its opponent's chances
unfairily by delaying the game. Such
a reform could easily be made, and
then be carried on into congress.
It is estimated that America
spends six hundred million dollars
a yer on music, and we arc opti
mistic enough to believe that if all
the jazz income were subtracted from
that amount, there would still be
I thousands dollars left for
good music.
:o:-
The suggestion from Kansas to
wfur; vour old . clothes and make
prices come down is wel enough, if
vi.nr old clothes are new enough
But the average clothier who has
law and weather on his side probably
wiil not Tioconi very nervous look
ing at the average consumer in his
average best suit.
A woman is a creature who thinks
the first result of a bachelor tax in
this country would be a wholesale
rush of bachelors to the marriage li
cense clerk.
-:o:
About ever so often Charles Evans
Hughes finds some new distinction.
Four years ago. he was candidate
for president of the United States.
This year he is not.
-:o:-
On reason why a teacher used to
be so well satisfied with $25 a month
in the school room was because she
didn't know she could make $25,000
in moving pictures.
-:o:
A humorist is not a man who
speuds his life seeing the funny side
of things, but a dyspeptic party who
tries to make the public see the fun
ny side of the stuff he writes.
:o:
The corkscrew has gone to join
the bootjack. The only method of
recalling these dear dead articles
that occurs at present is enlistment
in a regiment of Cuban cavalry.
:o:
The Pittsburgh pastor who offers
his church to young people for love
making purposes surely has forgot
ten the adage, you can lead a couple
to church, but you can't make them
spoon.
:o:
As time goes on. it becomes more
apparent that the president stands
is about as much danger of having to
select another postmaster general as
Micawber stood of being forced to
hunt another wife.
' : o :
The shipping board is selling its
passenger liners because it says the
government cannot operate them
dry. That encourages us to hope
the government may sell the con
gressional record.
DECENTRALIZATION.
Elihu Root was thinking primar
ily of the president's war powers
when he advised the republican
party to go in for decentralization
of national executive power. He
wishes the repeal of the special war
legislation giving the president ex
traordinary powars. There can hard
ly be any dissent from this. All the
legislation based on the necessity of
autocratic organization for war pur
poses should be repealed, including
all acts infringing on peace time
freedom of speech and opinion.
Besides these things, it would be
interesting to know whether Mr.
Boot and the country are not about
ready for a still further decentrali
zation. It has been evident of late
that the federal government has
more business than it can attend to.
It has been taking on state functions
one by one road building, educa
tion and what not. Now it staggers
under its burdens. We hear daily
of its inefficicnecy with the postof-
fice, the railroads, the army, the
navy and ten thousand other things.
Isn't it time the states took back
some of these burdens in hope of
carrying them more effectively and
less expensively?
One side of Mr. Boot's activties
in recent years gives reason to sup
pose that he has this in mind. He,
along with such other big New
Yorkers as Charles E. Hughes, have
been trying to develop a state ma
chinery in their own commonwealth
capable of producing work. They
have before the legislature now a
carefully worked out proposal for co
ordinating and simplifying the
state departments. They propose
something along the line of the Ne
braska code, but going still farther
toward securing responsibility and
simplicity. This would bo h prep
aration for the greater duties of the
state in case it reassumed the re
sponsibilities which the federal gov
ernment has in recent years taken
to itself.
There ia no doubt that the perma
nent welfare and happiness of the
people of this country will be best
subserved by keeping the govern
ment at home as far as practical.
Unfortunately more of our state gov
ernments have not been built for
work. They have been heavy and
complicated because we feared evil
more than we hoped for good. That
is one reason why the government
has been doing the state's work. The
stales were not organized to do it.
If the states could get rid of their
obsoleteMdea that government is best
which is weakest, we might develop
strong, athletic energetic states
which would relieve the central
government of the weight now
breaking it down. State Journal.

SIGNIFICANCE OF LIFE
We do not know what the pres
ent year shall bring to us. whether it
shall be filled with sweet fulfill
ments and those things that color
life in bright, cheerful tones, or
whether it shall bring only disap
pointments and gray clouds. For
many of the next 12 months will be
a mixture of joy and grief, bright
ness and sadness, of disappointments
and realizations. But it takes just
such combinations to make us un
derstand something of the signifi
cance of life. We learn to appreci
ate our blessings when they take
their flight more than at any other
tii.ie, and the knowledge that the
brilliancy of life's sun must be
tempered by shadows help us to
make the most of the sunny days.
Wo cannot expect to experience only
tha brightness of life during the
yeir that is just beginning to exist:
th" gray days must come and the
clouds must gather, sometimes wit 1;
little warning, but such conditions
aro not typical of any one life.
There is always a little sunshine
ju-t behind the clouds to be shared
by all alike, notwithstanding the -J
fact that for a while at least it does
not seem to be evenly divided. The I
longer we live the harder our prob-i
lems are likelv to become, and the '
anxieties of ene year run over into J
conditions to be taken into consid
eration and disposed of. Charles
