DOING ALL
TV0 MORE inf'luoiitiitl citizens have (01110 out Against
Herbert Hoover, Senator Boss Penrose of Pennsyl
vania, and Boss Charlie Murphy of Tammany Hall.
, From his spar-ious bungalow in Florida. Boss No. 1 says
"You can depend upon this. Hoover will not be the Re
publican nominee. He's a Wilson democrat and this is a
Republican year."
Charlie Murphy seconds the motion, 4 Hoover has no
more chance of being the democratic nominee than I have.
We don't have to go to the Republican party for our
leaders."
That would seem to settle it. And yet there is a tradi
tion that both of these sterling citizens have been equally
emphatic 111 the past, and awoke alter the convention to
find themselves grievously mistaken.
Boss Penrose for example, was at Boss Piatt's elbow
when a certain Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was quietly
canned and embalmed in the museum of political lumcn
ities, by having the vice-presidential jinx pinned to his
eoat tails.
"That ends Theodore," chuckled the B.-P.'s.
And when llie erudite and astute professor of political
economy made known his purpose to step from the state
house of New Jersey to the White House at Washington,
Boss Murphy winked his off eye and set his bicuspids
deeper into his havana.
"WoodroWj the highbrow, has another guess," quot:i
he.
And yet both of these amateurs served two healthy
terms, and both enjoyed an amazing power over the Ameri
can peoph;.
In fact, the political bosses haven't had a candidate put
over at a convention since 191'J, and then, if we remember
rightly, thev onlv carried L'tah and Vermont or something
like that.
Of course, this doesn't mean Hoover will be the nomi
nee of either party this year, all indications are he will
not. But the more citizens like Penrose and Murphy howl
against him the better his chances. The people- have a
way of tagging "boss" candidates with a can, when the re
lationship is clearly established.
Another criminal unearthed! Hainbridge Colby, tho
new secretary of state, voted for Roosevelt in 1912 and
Wilson in PiHi, which should be sufficient for the senate
to indict him.
With Dempscy indicted for evading the draft, Jess Wil
lard must fintl acertain consolat ion in hi.s not evading that

WILL JELL WHAT
The opportunity does not often
present itself to a young man of get
tine scientific and expert advice as tc
the vocation he may be best fitted
for. There are not many persons
who have the gift of reading one's
character to such an extent as to be
able to say, with any degree of assur
ance, that one's ability runs along
this line, or that line, or the other
line. A rafnd reader is one person, a
fortune teller another, but .Mrs. Jean
.ii orris Kllis ( neither one. .She will
receive into her presence a perfect
3tranper, and in a fifteen minutes'
examination will tell him enough of
his pa.t history which applies with
sufficient preciseness as to hold him
in very firm faith of what she may
tell him regarding his fitne.3 for a
life vocation. Mrs. Kllis has Kpent
years of study and practice In voca
tional guidance and comes to us
under the auspices of the Young
Men's ChriHtian association to be of
service, in particular, to ex-service
men. She will arrive here Monday.
March 1st, 7 p. m., and remain until
Wednesday, .March 3rd, r. : 1U p. in.
On the evening of her arrival a
general meeting will be held in St.
Mark's Kpiscopal church at t o'clock,
to which everyone is most cordially
invited, ex-service men in particular.
At this meeting arrangements will
be made by Mrs. Kllis for personal
interviews with the latter, and should
these interviews not consume all vl
the time she Is permitted to remain
with us. she will gladly tulk to any
other young men who so desire.
Many of the ex-servko iften left
good positions to enter the war
When some of them returned the?
could not get nark Into their old
places, but were f creed to do the best
they could and perhaps take up some
line of work which was utterly for
eign to them. Some may be doing
very well, while others may not yet
have found their hearings. It may
he the opportunity of a lifetime, per
haps, for those who are in an unset
tled state of mind regarding their vo
cations, 10 receive advice from one of
Mrs. Kills' capability and training.
There will be no charge1 whatever
for the opening meeting or for any
of the personal interviews which fol
low. Mrs. Kllis is at prcEent in the
employ of tho Interstate Toting Men's
Christian aHsocfration who bear all
her expenses. She is working in con
nection with the educational service
department, and nc'w that this splen
did opportunity is to come into our
midst, it is earnePtly hoped that many
young men will avail themselves of
tho privilege. ' 1
