'. Ntt since the time of Henry Clay lias any man, failing
to filial.. hijfh elective office, had such an' influence on the
liation'i life as has William Jennings Bryan. And Bill Bryan
died tjiday in the midst of activities following the evolution
trial at Dayton, Tenn., that were characteristic of his cour
r.ge, his energy, and his leadership. His passing will b
rnourried by the entire nation and by countries throughout
the wirld.
Thpre were many times in Bryan's public life when the
things he advocated ai-oused tremendous and overwhelming!
opposition. Most of his long and brilliant career he was in
the minority before the nation. But those facts do not dim
the fine characteristics that have been admired for moiti
than ii generation by friends and enemies alike. Repeatedly
a candidate for president, Bryan always failed to attain
that gpal, but he exercised an influence that made his' power
greater,' 'at times, than many of our chief executives, and
his numrj one that will go down in history as far more famed i
than most men who hold high office. , ' , j
. As'ja pacifist, a prohibitionist, an idealist Bryan created;
constant opposition among leaders as well as among thej
rank iid file. His greatness on those scores may be a mat.r'
ter of "debate, but no one will jrnyjiia Lyjsiinand his intel
leet in a'dvocjiling 'legislative reforms that" have become uni
established part of our national life today. A quarter of'
u ccntjjry ago Bryan's )latfonn contained many legislative!
planksjjtjiat were ridiculed and bitterly fought. In recent,
yeais jiiany of them have come to be integral parts of our I
govenjhicntal system and we seldom stop to realize that
these narks of progress were made possible, or were aided!
greatly; or were originally proposed by Bryan. As secretary
of staie under Wilson and as dictator of the Democratic
party iihrough many campaigns his ideas and ideals have
been so stamped on the consciousness of the American peo
ple that his influence will be evident- for generations to
pome.
j NoHndividtial in the country has had such contact with
common people nor such a personal iiO(iiainlance and fol
lowing as did William Jennings Kiyan. Considered by ma:iy
as thejgieatesl and most versatile orator of the age, Bryan
has btj.'n heard in practically every city and town of anv
size nj the I'nitcd States. Ih possessed a kindly, attrac
tive pirsoiialUy that pleased aii with whom he came in con
tact, h'et behind that was a strength of character and con
vietioil that made of him one of the most outstanding fight-'
rrs fof what he Mieved was the common good, in Ameri
can hitory. He never wavered, .seldom compromised. Al
thollgi inclined in later years to go off at doubtful tan
guits.Jhis keen mind was never failing in resources for
offensf or defense. And at the very last he had just com-
pieieo!in trie evolution trial a liattle of wits that
provetj ins mastery as a debater and hi:-
Chnstlan eitizi'ii
William Jennings Bryan is gone, but he leaves a fine
herilaie of usefulness to a sorrowing nation and an undying
inspiration in good citizenship to generations yet unborn.

Shop-Windows
On Parade
In the quiet and comfort of your hofne, news
j)aper in hand, the shop-windows of the town's best
stores pass in review. Look at that charming lit
tle hat just tiie style you have been looking for,
and so reasonable!
And say, isn't that coat a darling? . . . Not
only do you see illustrations of the marchandise,
but you are told in detail of its merits and prices.
A passing panorama that may be halted and started
at will. A shopping trip at home !
How long do you suppose it would take you to re
verse the process to go up one street and down
another, until you had visited personally every
worth-while store in town? And how exhausted
you would be, physically and nervously.
There is lto doubt about it. The modern way to
shop is to read the advertisements, then make notes
of the stores and the particular offerings that ap
peal to you. What a lot of time and bother such
a method saves. You know beforehand what you
want to look at, who has it, and what vou will have
to pay.
Read the advertisements. Make it a daily habit
The regular reader of advertisements is better in
formed, makes. the family budget stretch farther
has more time for recreation, gets more value for
her money, and profits in many other wavs d
vertiscments are frequently the most interesting
news in the paper. h
Every day these shop-windows are lined up for
your inspection in this newspaper.
