Somehow we do not look for
great deal of trouble from home
made beer, wine and eider. This
sort of thing will doubtless need
looking after but the great wrong
and damage of inteniieranee has
been caused by the licensed gentle
man who made it to his own and
the public's financial interest to
debauch and ruin his fcl'ow citi-
icns.
The chautauqua season like the
cherry season is short and keeps
one hustling to derive all the ad

it, When the season is ovcrjthere
is a'ways the canned article to fall

Six weeks of bachelordom bas

Hogs are roosting on a high perch
these days, but they have been up
there long enough now so they must

There comes a time in every boy's
life when he longs to emulate the
deeds of Jesse James or John A.
Murrel and his future well being de
pends on how wisely he is handled
at that stage of bis career.
We wish we felt half as sure that
the League of Nations will be a
good thing for the Unted States as
we are that it will be adopted by

Soaked in Sunshine, is the way
cne man expresses the weather con

powdered noses but it surely has
made the garden stuff boom.
What's in a name? People are
always quibbling over whether a
well known and indispensible article
is a spade or an agricultural imple
ment. But, come to think about
it, the imagination is a most im
portant and substantial commodity
even though its texture is similar
to the distinction between tweedle
dum and tweedledee.
A vitally important advantage

Prohibition promises to be
fruitful source of party maneuvers
for some time to come. Some im
portant facts must n(jt be overlook
ed in this connection. The South
is naturally prohibition. The Dem
ocratic party can favor the wets
and still keep its hold in the South.
If by espousing the cause of the
wets, it can hold the South and
carry some of the critical and pop-
ulousjstates of the north and north
east it can carry the day,
All speculation concerning the
future peace and welfare of the
world must ultimately strike up
against Russia. According to the
lecturer, Mr. Clare, the people of
Russia are fatalists. Only the most
extreme oppression caused them to
rebel against the Crar's govern
ment. The spirit of "we can not
help it, anyway" causes them to
submit to the Bolshevik minority.
If Germany gets hold of them, this
fatalist tendency will work to their
ends. We can not help but think
that a peace made, which does not
include a satisfactory settlement in
Russia, is lacking in a great deal.
It looks as if our actions will be
regulated next summer by artifl
cial time the same as this year. A
majority of Congress favored the
repeal of the daylight saving act
but it could not muster the neces
sary two thirds to pass the bill over
the president's veto, the final vote
standing 247 to 135 in favor of re
peal. Thus with the help of the
president the minority rules.
Country people have favored the re
peal of the law for they never have
wasted any daylight and consequent
ly, need not save in that regard.
They regard it as a.i imposition
that citv people should force
hardship on them to save that
which they could save for them
selves if they would change their
own working hours.
Ann Jane Cooper, who was one of
the oldest pioneers of this section,
died at her home in Independence,
Monday, July 7. She was one of
the family for whom Cooper Hollow
was named. With her husband she
crossed the plains in 1853 and set
tled in the hollow, living there un
til 1868 when they moved to Inde
pendence. Her maiden name was
Stewart and she was born in Maine
in 1831. Shortly after her birth
her parents moved to Illinois and in
1849 went to Missouri to live where
she met and married Harbin M.
Cooper. The latter died in 1904.
She is survived by four sons and
twenty grandchildren as . well as
great grandchildren.
