'America For Americans
THERE'S A JOB FOR EVERY MAX
AND A MAN FOR EVERY JOK
There is work for every man in
the United States who wants work,
ami there is a worker for every job
to be filled, according to a state
ment issued by the United* Statee
.-mployment service, affiliated with
the United States department of
labor. In certain sections of the
country there is an oversupply of
workers, while there are not
enough workers to go around in otif1
er sections. The totals show that
there is a job awaiting- every nan
who is looking for work. Every in
dustry, in. time, can be filled prac
tically up to 100 per cent. The
thing is to get after the loafers who
live, the Lord* knows how, who
never work, who represent a blot oa
the thrift record of any community,
says an exchange. Just now, while
spring is on the wing, this army
of the idle will be 6een on the
city streets, in the city parks and
s«iuares. It will be interesting to
watch, how they are handled. If I
they are over the draft age they I
should be told» that the.nation ds- '
inands that they employ themselves
in some way, and in the event of |
failure to secure work they should
t't mdue to move on.
THK LINCOLN STATl'E
(Detroit News)
The Barnard Lincoln controversy
at last is ended1.
Comes from Chicago the an
nouncement that the Augustus St.
Gauders statue of the Great Eman
cipator, which for years has graced
Lincoln park in Chicago, one of
this country's chief art treasures,
is to go to London in place of
the much citicized work of George
Gray Barnard.
The pedestal in Whitehall street
that awaits the monument commem
orating the century of peace be
tween the United States an£ Great
Britain is not to be topped by the
awkward figure of the gaunt cir
cuit riding lawyer of Sangamon
county^ limb and lineament gnarled'
by the rail splitting and savage ri
gors °X life on.the frontier, de
picted by Barnard, but by that of
the ix>lished and proper gentle
man of the last Jears in the White
House, giving the lie eternally to the
tradition that Abraham Lincoln was
unpleasant to look upon.
Barnard's statue was completed
last year, and unveiled at Cincinnati.
Immediately a storm of vituperation
outbroke. Lincoln's own son pro
tested against the statue as a libel.
Out of the settlement of the
oantroversv one thing is certain,
and the Chicago dispatcH puts it
in the mouth, of Lorado Taft, an
other sculptor:
"Ordinarily I would no more
sanction the sending of America's
Lincoln abroad than I would favor
putting up a copy of the famous
Caleoni statue of Venice in New
York, but war times have bound •
us very close to our allies." '
Chicago will not lo^g its Lincoln, 1
as a replica will be made, but the 1
original will go England.

BECOMES IRKSOME At TIMES
No Matter What the Nature of One's
Occupation, Its Routine Will Oc
casionally Weary.
Are there times when your work be
comes intolerably Irksome? Yes? Well,
don't Jump at' the conclusion that you
are In the wrong place when this hap>
pens once in uwhile. Tlut will be true
whatever work you choose. No matter
how well adapted you are to your occu
pation, there will come times when
your thoughts will wander, and tho
routine will weary you, and you will
feel that any othec work would be
preferable to th:it which you have
chosen. One of the best-known woman
writers of the last geueratlon wrote
an impassioned warning to literary as
pirants, telling them to do nny work,
even scrubbing floors, in j-referenee to
taking np a literary career. Undoubt
edly she wrote ut a time when her
chosen work seemed unspeakably irk
some, but II she had been cornered,
she would probably have acknowledged
that the profession of authorship ha*
considerable to commend It when com
pared with scrubbing floors.
This occasional impatience with onr
vocation is Inevitable. No matter how
congenial It is, there are times when It
will seem a burden. The people who
change their occupation every time it
begins to bore them, are the trump* of
the business world.
As to Remarkable Longevity.
As o lmve nil read of Thouius Part,
who lived to be one hundred and fifty
two. Likewise of the countess of Des
mond. one hundred and 'forty-five;
Margaret Patten, one hundred and
thirty-seven; Thomas I>amrae, one
hundred ami slxt.v-four; John llovln,
one hundred and seventy-two; and Pe
ter Toi ton, who readied the age of one
hundred ami eighty-live. But these
eases of extraordinary longevity lack
proof.
In the days when those persons
lived no accurate chronological records
were kept, anil (Jutes of occurrences
were usually lixed by associating them
In memory with other events believed
to have happened about the same time.
A man's Identity was liable to be con
fused with that of a grandfather of
the same name.
Nowadays nobody lives to any such
ages. Why imagine that the extreme
limits of longevity have shrunk within
the last two or three centuries?
Mother never made better ice
cream than that which is served
b/ Keller Bros, at their sanitary
soda fountain. Have you tried it?
