"DECAUSE Admiral Sims takes himself too seriously

gress is investigating the navy for the sin of winning the
war.
The navy made a wonderful record, one that cannot
be impeached, one that fills every American with pride
for its valor, bravery and efficiency, but anybody that
throws a brick at those who led a victorious war, is invit
ed by congress to help them waste weeks of time in fu
tile, pretended investigation of incidents long since closed.
Mean while congress, with its leadership of negation
and destruction emphasizes its total lack of constructive

reconstruction, bmaii wonder the people are m revolt over

of conscience and conviction and are less concerned with
the country's welfare tnan with spoils.
The only policy the republican politicians have had
the past year is to discredit President Wilson, to belittle
the winning of the war, and by refusing to enact recon
struction legislation and ratify the peace treaty, encour
age the spread of discontent and economic unrest to cre
ate a state of public mind that will insure republican suc
cess. Hence the dodging of issues and the incessant ap
peal to racial animosities and partisan prejudice.
Nor are the democratic politicians any better off.
They have followed Wilson's leadership, not enthusiastic
ally, or from principle, but f rom expediency. Now that the
president has been stricken with illness, their division and
lack of leadershp is apparent. The democratic party was
created to resist centralistic tendencies, to preserve indiv
idual liberties guaranteed under the Bill of Eights, and
these ideals still animate the rank and file of the party,
but find no echo among the democratic politicians, whose
eyes are glued to the pie-counter.
As at present organized, both, parties have outlived
their usefulness, because the professional politicians are
concerned only with division of spoils and campaign con
tributions tor their sham battle. And this condition has
bred a popular distrust in politicians and the time is ripe
for a political upheaval in one or both parties or the cre
ation of a third that will sweep both to defeat.

Cuffy stood up on his hind legs.
"Now, hold up yer paws so."
And Cuffy did as he was told.
"Now hit me!" Pete ordered.
And Cuffy struck out at his friend.
But to his surprise he didn't succeed
in touching Pete at nil. Instead, he ie

Cuffy didn't like that. In fact it made

The matter agreed upon represents
a new departure in co-operation oe
tween corporate industry and the gov
ernment. And as it is a sincere desire
on the part of the packers to aid tn
directing public thought to whole
hearted -consideration of constructive
efforts in readjustment to normal con
dtiions. the agreement deserves unpre-
ludice analysis and consideration.
A few editors refer to this agreement j
as a "surrender" on the part of the '
packers, and Intimate that the latter
must have been guilty or they woua
not have compromised. Swift & com
pany entered this agreement, not be-'
cause of any fear of an adverse decis
ion in the courts, for there has been
no violation of the law but because
we realized that a- deep-rooted fear
had been developed in the public mind
against one organization's or smart .
group's handling many lines, of com-1
peting iood products and, we realized
that even if we were acquitted by the
court after a long and costly proceed
ing, this favorable decision would do
little to counteract this prejudice and
blind fear in the public mind.

associates extending over twenty
seven years! " Instead of one man
practicing in a small way in a small .

large offices, where there is room
for complete equipment.
Some of the System dentists extract teeth, some fill
teeth, some make crowns and bridges, some make arti
ficial plates and some treat diseased teeth. In this way
each patient is cared for by a dentist who is experienced
in the kind of work each patient needs.
Dental work done in this manner is not only done bet
ter, but in less time, making fewer visits necessary, and
the saving in time helps to make prices lower.
There are twenty-four offices where the E. R. Parker
