When a uermaa loreijfn uimister
praises Lloyd George to the relchatag
the war seems to be "over, over
there," at least.
Alas for the poor buyer of illicit
liquor! He gets little sympathy and
not much liquor, and oJteuer Ui&n not

Speak not harshly against the

Maybe lawmaking should be paid
for by the ple<*e Instead ot by the

The easiest thing f«ie coroners do
Is Mama dead raeo for their own

Prices are eomlng down, but nobody

the descent.
Submarines are new being used to
smuggle liquor. Peace is utilizing the
resource* of war.
Some men are poor because they
are h.>nest and some are honest be
cause ihey are poor.
>'ow that flour prices are declining
It Is about time for another Increase
In the cost of bread.
Well, aojbow, the woAoien never
quite got to the potnt of employing a
caddy to carry the tool*.
Europe has served notice that It
wants American coal. And so. It may
be observed, does America.
With jJhicked eyebrows. It's not the
original cost, It'9 the additional time

An alienist blam<w the oulja board
for much insanity. Why not blame
Insanity for the oulja board?
The premie? of Albania, assassi

Considering the number ot political
murders by students. It would be In

Stated succinctly, the daylight saving
scheme Is a plan to put the tollers to
work two *>ours before day In order
that the ro!!er-top-deskers may have
two hours more of golf, which la net

WAR AND «UICTDe.
Tfce value of having something he
»fde< oneself CD think about is strongly
Illustrated in the statistics of Insur
ance companies showing tbe suicide
rate during the war period. It was
mid at th6 time tfiat the war «r.»
causing much insanity—of at iaait re
ve#ling ldtonity—by Its untitling ef
fect on unstable minds, but suicide
mania was not one of the forms which
It took. The fact Is that the suicide
rate among white men dropped more
than one-thlnl la tbe war period, says
Detroit Free Press. The decline be
gan when the war !n Europe com
menced to absorb Aiaerlcai. attention
and continued through tl»e war period.
Tbe fail In the rate for white men and
women Indicates that about 3,300 per
sons who would liave committed sui
cide la ordinary times did not do so
In 1918. Tbe experience In Europe was
similar to that in tbe United States.
One of the recognized evils of war
Is that It kills off the brightest and
best among the men, but It hAs hardly
been suspected that It tends to pre
serve the lives of those who are so
abnormal that In norma! times they
would not even wlsli to lite.
Alon* the Ohio valley we are wit
nessing alreudy one effect of denuda
tion of watersheds which should be a
warning. Within the memory of men
not beyond ralddie aye every flood left
a thick deposit of Muck sediment—
ferest loam—m>on the fiver bottom
fields along the Ohio. The sediment
sometimes drifted against the fences
as suow drifts before a wind, and was
left after the flood In black ridges of
fertilizer. Nowadays there Is nothing
like as much renewal of fertility. The
land that once sent leaf loam Into the
flood now bleeds red clay or has been
"bled white" upon deforested water
sheds. Yet tbe destruction of forests
continues and ifbwbere Is the private
I landowner awake to the necessity for
[ conservation as a private project and
as a state project, writes Tom Wallace
In Southern Agriculturist. The now
organized farmers would do well to
give attention to this problem, with a
view to c*euting effective state for
estry. whlah would Inculcate the prin
ciple* at conservation among private
ownetw.
Genural Oherst Von Klucfe. th» latest
of the German war leaders to publish
reminiscences of the great war. d«
I scribes how ou August S3, 1914, he
and his staff came under fire aeur the

Here and there you will find him;
he Is not extinct. He Is not much of a
I platform orator, but you'd be surprised
1 to know how many people drop around
to ask his opinion. His vocabulary le
limited. He doesn't say "l'ou can't

I that will please both sides." He has
j un odd fashion of saying "I think tills
Is right" or "1 think this Is wrong."
