I Timothy vi, 11. :oi v The harvest moon it great for gathering affection. :o: A little mountain aew always helps the wild oat crop. -:o: .You can keep a good man down if he is good for nothing. :o: The height of folly is looking to see if Mars is inhabited. :o: You can get over a lot of things by not thinking them over. o:o istance doesn't lend any enchant liicnt when you are out of gas. :o: The man who can't remember is as bad as the man who can't forget. :o: John V. Davis pays a high compli ment and praise for Gen. Pershing. :o: Too much money makes a man un happy, especially after he losses it. :o: The female of th especies stands between people the light more often than the male. :o: Davis urges better defense upon seas, but preparation for peace most important he thought. :o: Winter social activities are com ing and the debutantes who failed last year will have to try harder. :o: Judge J. J. Thomas, democratic candidate for United States sector, is for restoring foreign farm market. :o: We know all about Cal Coolidge. The reTson he wants us to keep cool with him is he wants to freeze onto hi3 Job. o:o . Gen. Dawes has missed his call ing by going up into Wisconsin. Now watch that state go more unanimous for La Folletl. This is a fine old world to the man who doesn't want all of it. :o: A little loving now and then has caused the shooting of some men. o:o Xo cloud has a silver lining as long as you stay on the outside. o:o It is hard to sing "Home, Sweet Home" when the rent is past due. :o: Is there a republican panic on? Silent Cal has begin to stir himself. :o: Utopia is a land where summers are cold and cold winters are hot. :o: Pedestrians have the law on their side all right, but not the autos. o:o Good cooking isn't as much an art as finding something good to cook. :o: A pacifist is a person who is more afraid of a "gesture of war" than he i3 of the real thing. :o: It is easier to get a Job than it was any time since last April, but work less jobs are still scarce. o:o In a few years a hard guy will be one who likes his iced tea so strong you can't see the lemon. :o: Of course the old fashioned Roman chariot had some accessories, but it didn't need a windshield. -:o:- Defense was universally observed in all cities of the United States and Plattsmouth was not very slow in her observation of the day. :o: The uncertainties regarding the election results have been increased, since the Prince of Wales came over and captured the flapper vote. :o: Looking back Chicago must be a little conscience smitten over the criminals (not many, to be sure) who have been hanged for murder when thoy should have been punish ed only for abnormalty. :o: Epinard Is the only foreigner that has been over here recently who has given out an interview knocking the country, save, of course, the Prince of Wales. But Epinard is just a horse, and he Is over to make money, anyway. :o: Some people say that buttermilk will put you to sleep better than moonshine. All we got to say is that we know one man who drank a half gallon of buttermilk and didn't wake up until three days later. We knew another one who drank a quart of moonshine and never waked up. :o: International trade between na tions is steadily increasing getting back toward normal after the war time upset. It is difficult to tell Just how much, on account of the almost constant changes in foreign money values. But, in the first six months this year, the tonnage of exports from seven leading countries showed a gain over the corresponding peri od of 1923, and in imports five gain ed while only two dropped. The ploughshares, beaten from swords, will soon be as busy as ever. :o: The trouble Isn't so much that we have too many laws, but that too much time is wasted enforcing the wrong ones. Here's a case. Every community has an ordinance against pitting on sidewalks, in street cars and other public places. Few local regulations are more important, yet how often is the expectorater ar rested? If you can think of any thing that should be safeguarded more than the public's health, trot it forth. The victim of the most ter rible contagious diseases can spit all over the walk without much danger of arrest. But just let him get caught buying a flask of whiskey or violating parkins rules. They build houses out of mud in Chhina, so what do the Chinese wom en kick about their husbands track ing in? :o: We have found that very often when you see a couple of men call ing each other liars, both are telling the truth. :o: A well known prognosticator in Ohio says we are not to have any real winter weather until about the first of January. We hope he i3 cor rect. :o: .Airplanes from all over the world will take part in the international air races at Dayton, Ohio, in Octo ber. The main prize, of course, will be for speed, since flying so far is chiefly a sport. When the goals are safety and cheap construction, in stead of speed and high altitudes, the flying industry will begin de veloping a dozen times as fast as now. It was the cheap car, not speed, that "made" the automobile indutsry. History will repeat with planes. o:o France is selling to other coun tries at the rate of three billion francs a year in excess of what she's buying in the form of imports. Even though the franc is away below par, this leaves her a snug trade balance. Her military machine will spend the money quickly, if any is left over after paying pensions and rebuild ing .devastated districts. Funds to repay what she borrowed from our Liberty Bonds sales are not apt to flow our way for a long time if ever. -OK) A victim of a relatively mild dis ease, such as measles, is quaran tined. Victims of tuberculosis, viru lent social diseases and so on, are allowed to roam at large, endanger ing the public. The dread diseases will sweep the population until vic tims are isolated. The cost of sup porting them would be terrific, but it would pay in the long run, and' could be charged to the safeguarded future generation by bond issues. Ontario, Canada, for instance, is ac tive in compelling the segregation of tubercular unfortunates. o:o , YOUTH TO TEE FORE essary that the "elder statesmen" be given exclusive charge of the great posts upon the successful adminis tration of which the progress of the human race depends. Indeed, the world today looks askance at age In making its selections of men for po sitions of the highest importance. Business, both commercial and gov ernmental, is more complex, of course, than it ever was. The world has developed since the graybeards of Rome sat in the seats of the mighty, and, with the development has come an increasing number of problems. Their proper solution re quires not only the strength, but the vision of youth. Mr. Gilbert is 32 years old. Un der the constitution, framed nearly a century and a half ago, he could not become president of the United States. He has not reached that mature age of discretion which the founders of the republic deemed nec essary in the man who was to shoul der the responsibility of chief exec utive of the nation. Yet he is given a post of extraordinary importance one which requires as much exec utive ability, perhaps, as the presi dency, combined with a diplomacy that would do credit to an ambassa dor in any of the chancelleries of Europe. The world will have its eyes on Mr. Gilbert and he dare not slip. The striking feature of the case is that nobody expects him to slip. He has demonstrated the fact that he possesses ability of the high est order. A brief public career sat isfies the most exacting of critics that Mr. Gilbert is well qualified for the post to which he has been named. After all, youth is, perhaps, what Europe needs at this moment more than anything else. It needs to get out of the old rut in which the elder statesmen have held it all these years. The vigor and the strength and the clear outlook of youth would do wonders in bringing the conti nent up to the level of modern ideals. Mr. Gilbert may be the symbol of a new day in Europe. o:o Alvo Department A TRIP TO MARS The choice, of Seymour Parker Gilbert, Jr., to administer the Dawes plan as permanent agent general of reparations payments is a tribute and a concession to youth as a driv ing force in the big affairs of the world, Xo longer is t regarded nec- Well Digging and Gleaning We are prepared to sink wells, clean wells or do any kind of well work J. W. Hobson & Son An airplane traveling 100 miles an hour would not gst you to the plan et Mars until you had shot onward through space for about 40 years. At 1,000 miles an hour, the trip would take four years. Xo airplane could travel 1,000 miles an hour for more than "a few days without1 getting its 'machinery so hot it would be unable to func tion and continue its flight. Xo airplane could every carry fuel for a trip of four years or more Of course, power might possibly be electrical, received by radio from a super-station back here on earth. Any way you look at it, even the wildest dreamer cannot see any po3 sibility of men ever flying out to visit other worlds. Xature has chained us to our earth and its immediate vicinity. There is no escape except by death. A flying trip to the moon is not impossible in the . future centuries when men will be phenomenally ad vanced in invention compared with now. Airplanes that will travel 1,000 miles an hour are just a matter of time. A plane of that speed would trav el from the earth to the moon in about 10 days. To the moon and back in three weeks or less! The flying machine is undoubted ly man's greatest invention to date, in the sense of being marvelous of X-ray and radio. How long until you'll own your own airplane, a flying flivver, safe to ride in? Sooner than anyone ex pects. Me for the flying flivver. :o: BACK TO SCHOOL Youth is the most glorious peri od. In old age you will look back to it as a mystic fairyland. And yet it is a very pratical fairyland, for youth is training time. You are going to school for this definite purpose to train yourself for makinga living after you grad uate. The kind of living you will make in maturity is largely deter mined in school days. The founda tion of failure or success is almost without exception based on the train ing the brain gets in school. Study hard and you will be rewarded later. The world that you will graduate into will be a very different world than the one entered by your father when completed his schooling. Each year the intellect plays a greater part in daily life. So neglect no op portunity to develop your brains. You children are the re-inforce-ments training to take the place of the grown-ups who now run the world's affairs. Whether you will do a better job than father's generation whether making a living will be I difficult work or easy pleasure these depend on school days. More than 20000,000 children are now answering the school bell after vaca tion. A mighty army. Study bard to become one', of ita leaders later. Dr. Chas. Parrish, Veterinarian, Elmwood, Nebraska.
