In truth, he outshone any of his contemporaries, not excepting Wash ington, in general all-round ability and intellect. His auto biography should be on the bookshelf, not of every library, but of every home. As an example of courage, modesty and thrift it is unnaralleled. he Sentiment is turning toward putting Franklin on the uedestal where nronerlv he belomrs.

"OntrshnttWTiot overlook, however, the more inspiring things about this printer's apprentice who became great. He walked with kings and talked with nobles, and they did him honor. He brought to America respect in Europe at a time when a more volatile ambassador to France might have worked serious injury to the cause of the Rev olution. Let us by all means honor Franklin.

End Of The World Once more the end of the world is. heralded as near at hand. This time the spokesman of a religious sect gen erally broadcast the dread prophecy. Frequently the mes sage of destruction has been read from the stars or from dreams, but the latest forecast is apparently based on the general stress and strain to which the world has been sub jected by the 6rcat war as pointing to its wind-up. While the most recent prophets of world destruction do riot name the date of extinction, they appear to be none thejless certain, iujlveir conviction that it is close upon us.

That is the question the commission proposed by a bill just introduced in congress would be called on to 'de cide. This is more easily asked than answered. What is an intoxicant for one may be a non-intoxicant for another. For. variation in capacity of drinkers is a fact that all whose memory antedates the eighteenth amendment will verify. After laboring with this question, the commission, if the legislation creating it should be enacted, could ease it self back to less vexing problems by taeklinc some simple question as, for instance, determination of the beauty content that makes a maiden's eve intoxicating.
