BATES, Publisher SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE Kven the pessimist can see the bright side of a silver dollar. :o: It will be a lucky man this win ' trr who finds himself between two fires. :o: If only the cheaper shoes lasted longer, as do the cheaper cuts of meat. :o: The rtiorus of presidential ouija IwmhIs is beginning to betray a dis cord here and there. :o: The immigrants to this country are never popular until they become democrats or republicans. :o: Holding up the millions for the ln'nefit of the few is not a healthful sport fur profiteers of either capital tr labor. :o: The price of brooms la coming down, but you have to raise more Must" to get a hired girl to sweep the room. -0:0-- Cas strong enough to run an auto is being made from straw. That's nothing. They make a liquid from com strong enough to run a locomo tive. :o: It must give the tightwad a lot of pleasure 'to Uiok about and notice what a line time people are having (-pending the money of some other tightwad who has gone before. :o: The eiahthwife of Kid McCoy, the pugilist, is suing him for divorce, after a matrimonial experience of four months. Perhaps Kid uses his wives as (-pairing partners, and they don't like the rough treatment. :o- The national prohibition commis sioner admits that some of the country's big cities are still pretty wet. Ultimately it may occur to the national prohibition commissioner or t-otnehody that prohibition is not self-enforcing. :c: It is said that Germany is dumping inferior goods into the United States and labeling them "Made in Amer ica. " If Germany can outdo the clothing manufacturers of the United States in using shoddy material, she's the champion adulterator of the ages. :o: The question of maintaining our public utilities is too large to be marred by political palavering. The company is either entitled to higher rates, or it is not entitled to higher rates, and that is the question that can be easily settled through a board of arbitration consisting of fair minded experts. :o: Concerning Harney TJaruch, the Wall street financier who came out to Kansas to find "the cat that gets the cream" of the nation's, produc tion, many Kansas editors are amazed that such a wise old dog as Harney should have gone such a long way from the cat center of the coun try in his search. T. c We've just got through reading what Harding said, what Cox said, what Harney Baruch said, what Cool ide said, what Franklin Roosevelt said, what Teddy, Jr., said, what some of the labor leaders said, what capital said, what the lady who kill ed her husband said, what the rail road said, what Babe Ruth said, what MacSwiney's wife said, "what the neighbor said her neighbor said, and were leaning back in the comfortable old arm chair to hear what the wild waves said, when the telephone rang, and we heard what our wife said. We've forgotten what the others said, but we're going to get some meat and brejd and butter and get home p. d. q. m$ better in O M E women have learned that there are two ways to care for clothes. They are learning to take care of them. It is quite a mannerly thing to take care of your clothes investment and protect it up to the limit. Having your clothes carefully dry cleaned will improve their wear and help to prolong the life of their stylish lines Getting acquainted wjthour work means getting in touch with a real money saving service. Goods Called for and Delivered moime: ibb OPPOSITE JOURNAL OFFICE Debs probably hopes there Is no truth in that Salvation Army Slogan, "A man may be down, but he is never out." :o: So long as Miss Alice Faul cannot vote In November election, wh-y not make her the stake-holder for all campaign bets? - :o: The exact age of the woman voter may not be vital, but most folks will agree In the conclusion that a woman who is reluctant about telling her age hasn't sense enough to be a voter. :o: Political observers are wondering whether husbands and wives will vote aiike in the coming election. Well the old saying is, "coincidences" will happen in the best regulated families. :o: A California scientist and slave to the interest of truth and accuracy, says that Eve was really Adam's sec ond wife, an unpedigreed woman, Lilith, having preceded her. And Isn't that Just like a man. not to say anything about the previous affair? : :o: If th republic leaders are telling the truth when they say that they knew nothing whatever about the enormous slush fund, then who is getting the big wads of cash that are being mulched from the people, and under whose direction Is it being ex pended? :o: "LaFayette, we have quit," has be come the republican slogan. And under that slogan the republican party purposes not only to win the election, but to deprive of their ti tle of loyal citizenship all Americans whose conscience and Judgment im pel them to vote as their sons shot." :o: MR. M SWINEY'S TIGHT PLACE It is difficult at this distance to size up the case of Mr. MacSwiney, the lord mayor of Cork, who decided to commit suicide by starvation rath er than undergo a two year sentence in an English prison. The Irish mayor .could not be near er starvation and death than if he had been living in a third class boarding house, and getting late to his meals every day. And yet he lives. More than that one day he is re ported to have rallied and to have passed a good night and the next day to be dying. Every day when the Associated Press wires close we are certain we are going to find Mr. MacSwiney dead the next morning, and the first thing we do when we come down now is to ask the telegraph operator how Mr. MacSwiney is. and we always get one of two answers he is improved, or near death's door. Suspicious persons insist that Mac Swiney Is taking secret nourishment. We don't believe this. We don't be lieve MacSwiney would fein weakness to his Irish constituents, and take a couple of raw eggs and whisky to day between times. But there is one thing certain, if MacSwiney Is going to get the British government to release him before his two year sentence is up, it is plainly to his advantage to hang on as long as he possibly can. If he passes out what Interest the British government takes is his case after that if of no importance to him. It may be the purpose of the gov ernment to let Mr. MacSwiney com mit suicide if he wants to. There is where the uncertainty comes In for Mr. MacSwiney. If the Lord Mayor Just knew whether or not the Bri tish government was bluffing, he would have an .easy task, but not knowing, Mr. MacSwiney has a dif ficult road, and one that might prove fatal to him in end. A hunger strike is all right of It is going to secure your release, but if you are going to commit suicide by not eating there are certain very ob vious disadvantages. tot THE MAKING OF MEN. Are the children of today being consigned to pl&ces of littleness? Will the efforts being made in some quarters to destroy American ideals, and enthrone radicalism, affect their thinking and their lives? These boys and girls have a right to the best; the best homes, the best educational advantages, the best mor al training, the best social atmos phere, the best civilization. They not only have a right to be born well, but to be reared well, to be trained well, both In their thinking and In their actingj aiany a Doy starts uie with a handicap too great for him to over come and after a period of struggle against seeming Insurmountable dif ficulties he submits to the inevita ble and sinks into the commonplace. This i3 a tragedy. It is tragic because the poor fel low seems to be but a flicker of life in the midst of Intangible forces over which he has no control and all of which seems to be conspiring to thwart hlf. deevlopment. It ought not to be so. Civilization owes the coming gen eration the proper environment in which to live and the proper train ing and equipment for life. The making of the men of the fu ture is in the hands of the men and women whose hands now guide the movements of civilization. It is theirs to organize and direct the forces which imping upon the lives of the rising generation so that these forces will make for and not against soul development. There can be no civilization worthy the name that is not based on education and culture. But the growing life needs some thing more than, intellectual train ing, it needs that which religion has, a heritage of ideals, expressed in the eloquence of the soul and enshrined in great lives. "Religion alone can give the su!Ti clent motive, spiritual motive, the motive of self-giving love and sacri ficial service, the motive that has moved every great soul throughout all the ages. Character grows in the soil of hu man conditions. What we are, does not depend on what we wish we might be. but on what we are set in to, our social, physical and moral en vironment. Grapes are not grown on thistles, or water lillies on asphelt. neither do men and women of the right type grow in an environment of ignorance, physical squalor, or moral pollution. "To make the world safe for de mocracy, was a slogan which mar shaled a nation and hurled its forces into the maelstrom of war. But more important than any system of gov ernment is the Intellectual, moral. spiritual atmosphere of the nation. Standards of life and living are vital. A bench does not need atmosphere. but a boy does. It is -not the air he breathes alone that enables him to live, the soul within him must inhale the breath of heaven. Aspirations, ideals, moral standards, spiritual im pulses, hopes and beliefs, all. are packed Into the compound that makes the man. Progress is not inherent in the race, it Is an achievement. The ten dency Is to retrogress. Each gener ation must fight its way to the goal of success. The achievements of the past, the benefits of an advanced civ ilization, all facilities for education and established ideals in morals are helps but not guarantees of a higher type of life. It is just here that the coming generation encounters its greatest handicap. The heritage which weighs the heaviest is social. There is not much difference in the brain-weight of boys, but there is a tremendous dif ference in their social heritage. One boy has a social heritage where every outlook on life is pessi mistic and discouraging. The fath er has narrow and cramped concept tions. He is little in his opinion, pessimistic in his attitude, bolshevis tic in his currents of thoughts. He has soured on the world and has stewed for years in his own vinegar until he is vitriolic. Around the fireside he talks about the inequality of things, pours out his disfigured feelings and creates an atmosphere destructive to every budding hope in the minds of his children. Such a home atmosphere is a han dicap to any boy. There is another social heritage which is also a handicap, it is the heritage of extravagance and dissi pation, unbridled self-gratification and mental oscilation. There is but one salvation for the rising generation, and that is re ligion. Where the atmosphere is sweetened by prayer and Godliness in the daily life the souls of boys and girls flower into beauty.- tot Geo. It.

Citizen Doan's Kidney Pills were used they brought relief. The story was told to I'lattsmouth residents. Time has strengthened the evi dence. Has proven the result lasting. The testimony is home testinoanv. The proof convincing. It can be investigated by I'latts mouth residents. Mrs. S. L. Cotner, Marble street, gave the following statement Feb. 23, 1916t "I am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills for I know from personal experience the are a remedy of merit. I have taken Doan's on several occasions for backache and kidney trouble and they have always done me good. Doan's have been used in our family for a long time and the results have been very sat isfactory." On May 13, 1920. Mrs. Cotner saidt "The cure Doan's Kidney Pills made for me a few years ago .has lasted. I still have good faith in Doan's and am glad to recommend them to my friends." Price 60tf, at all dealers.
