BUT Willi tlio return from the cvei-ffliides of Florida, the difficul ties of this si-lection should be lessened. The President's secretary must posses, first of nil' a think skin, lie can't be touchy or temperamental. He must be capable of absorb ing the irritiitintc importunities of the ubiquitous self-seeker. I In must have a cool head, a clear eye, and yet be aide to exhibit emotion upon oeeassion, and when necessity calls combine, firmness with tact. A mere jiood-natured office boy is not enough. There must be flirgressire as well as defensive capabilities. As a famous diplomat recently remarked, the President's private secretary must be able to show his teeth as well iin wng his tail. Moreover, with the President's laudable desire to remove section alism from the White House, his private secretary Nhould be familiar with the south, its problems and the psychological complexes of its climate. Intimate acquaintance with conditions below the Mason nnd Dixon line, therefore, would be a distinct asset. Under the circumstances and with these desiderati in view, there would seem slight reason for the president-elect to hesitate longer. He need waste no more time looking for the right party, the right party has been presented, and is undoubtedly looking for him. For where could he find a better choice, than "this fair si.ed 'gator from Henry M. Bennett of Jacksonville, Florida," which he has accepted as the White House pet. ' But why a pet? As Mr. Harding well says, "we are preaching simplicity and thrift as one of the necessary remedies to effect an American cure." Pets come under the head of luxuries. They spin not, neither do they toil, (ialmaliel, the 'gator with his six-inch hide and his six-foot smile, those gleaming bicuspids and that persuasively wagging tail, the clear yellow eye, the cool judicial head, and ability to maintain perfect efficiency, on a dozen meals a year! Wasted as a pet ! Not on the Limited for Normalcy. For here, indeed, is the per fect private secretary. 4 The apology of the war department to Germany for tho attempt to capture O. C. Jtorgdoll, the rich slacker, is not surprising, and Is tho logical continua tion of the administration policy of ab ject fawning and sniveling abasement, whenever tho opportunity presents.

Yet fogs come drifting from the deep and morns and eves are often cold- and shivers through your system creep, and all the air seems damp with mould.

But hero, where all the prospects please, and only profiteers are vile, you'll have to sit around and freeze no man can own a cord wood pile. AVe buy our wood in little sacks which from singe dis tant forests came ; with chunks the size of'carpet tacks we feed the sad and ghastly flame. Our coal we purchase by the quart, nnd burning it seems quite a crime; no fire can roar and rip and snort when fed a pellet, at a time. The Fog enshrouds this winter night, it pierces through me like a sword; my lantern's burning as I write it's all the heat I can afford. But there are countless sunny days when everything is fine and grand, and then I take my lyre and praise the glories of this wondrous land. 1 What are the three great classes of rockB? 2 What causes rainfall? 3 What charm- is a turquoise sup posed to have? 4 Will seeds grow after they have been kept many years? 5 What is sago?
