Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry, It is very nice of France and Knit land to endorse thb candidacy of Henry Ford for he presidency, prob ably on the war record of his boy. The fact that France and England approve of the Kreat tinsmith oUKht to bo suf ficient for the peoplo or America. "The Rigidly Righteous and the Graciously Ciood," was the sermon topic of a Portland preacher Sunday, and the speaker took to task the Pain fully Proper who take existence and themselves entirely, too serious. Too many express deep isplrltuality with a long face, and think It un-Christian to smile In public. There are two classes under this heading: Their conscience hurt them owing to past orncrynesa, or they are getting rcady to run for office. MORE TRUTH THAN POETY ' (Western News) Attorney James M. Alien of Yrcka was 'a business visitor in Grecnview Saturday evening. OUT OF TIIK DAKKNKSS. Ono can read where tourists were caught lu the blizzard that swept Kansas, Nebraska, und Colorado Sat urday night. Things have come to a pretty pass when the Gadlust can not be satisfied without being subject to the annoyances of the weather. Mrs. Melvln Booth of Watorloo was in'town last Friday on a friendly visit. (Lebanon Criterion). She left her boxing gloves at home. A Fable: Once upon a tlmo there were eight protty girls and a homely youth in an auto and the youth said: "This Is entirely too crowded, let me out!" And ho lived happily ever after. A GALAXY OF ARTISTS (Chlco Enterprise) Tho slaughtering of the cham pion hog ot this territory was a community nrtair not without a little social, shading. The hog ; was a 3-year-old Duroc and dress ed 820 pounds.. It was ownod by James W. Lee, near this place, at whose home gathered Jacob Dil- - gard, Toinp and Henry Billing, of Gormania; Waymnn Kitzmlller, of Mount Storm, and Ohe and Wilson llanlln, nearby noighbors, as main functionaries at the butcher ing. Scores looked on. With everything in shape, Tomp Duling did tho shooting, Waymnn Kltz miller tho sticking, and Jacob Dll gard and Henry Duling pulled tho hair aud did the scraping. Ilubo Ruth has slammed out tho first homcrun of the season, but unfor tunately this tremendous rest fnils to soften tn the least the latest sordid scandal attached to his glory. Tho Democratic Governor, elected by Itopubllcans, lu doing tho unexpect ed, and naming democrats for tho fat jobs.

Kvory room In tho build ing had been wantonly damaged mid looted. All tho furnlturo was cleared out and loaded on to French lorries. Tho library ot 4UO0 books him also been removed. About a company of French sol diers, under four officers, broke Into tho cellars and drank somo i'00 bpttlcs of wine and several bottles r spirits. Then they visited tho other rooms. What tho valley needs Is a crop that 1s Immune from rrost, and does not Interfere with fishing. The local social whirl Is whirling anew, owing to the hoinocoinliig of the campus shleks who will demonstrate the latest intellectual twists In the throwing of tho festlvo hoof. Ileal bout would decide that both disputants are nyht if decrees of divorce were requested and (.-ranted wherever the spiritual, intellec tual and emotional harmony which composes true love had vanished, there would he a general domestic situation truly scandalous in its confusion. On the other hand to maintain that when marriage settles down lo the somewhat serious and perplexing business of life. Cupid can not (.tick around and maintain a certain liveliness for an indefinite pe riod, is to run contrary to clearly established facts of human ex perience. Love, like happiness and bmuty, is a relative and somewhat elas tic term. What passes as divine fin; for some, is scorned as cinders and ashes by others. True low is the exception, just as true genius is the exception, but there is a perfectly workable and respectable substitute consisting of mutual respect, affection, and common sense, which is able to carry the domestic, ship of slale through the shoals and reefs of every -ilav existence, without disaster aud with occasional flashes of beauty and inspiration. This is an age of individualism. It is also an age of feminism. I'.olh mark progress in human development no doubt. But neither contribute to domestic felicity or cohesion. Judge Lindsay, in fact believes, after years of experience, that under modern conditions mar riage is a totul failure. The Judge may be right. !ut we think his experience in a court of domestic relations, has rendered a perfectly impartial verdict im possible. "When all is said and done, the success or failure of mar riage is largely a matter of character. Increased divorce is not a dis ease. It is merely a symptom. The cure lies not in changing this law or tliat, it lies in a sterner view of individual responsibility, and less innate selfishness in human relations.

JAM ICS I'KACItLOW HlGlWHOW drove his car, and as ho drove, through face ajar he talked a streak on many themes, tm concrete facts and obstruse dreams. "This Kinstein stuff looks good," saiil he; "I'm strong for relativity; I'll back this l'JUKlein's lino of talk with money, marbles. Mumps or chalk." "nine evening at the Itluo Front slore we'll thresh out Kinstein o'er and o'er," I .said, my soul distraught with fear, "but let us think of safety here. For blitzen's sake look where you drive, and let us all get homo alive." "I've driven boats for seven years," James Highbrow said, with furtive sneers, "aud never yet have I been spilled or passengers of mine been killed. As I was saying, Einstein's graft looks scientific, fore and aft; the world must reckon with this genl when it gets wise to what he meant " Now, as I sort my broken bones aud hand out bass and alto groans it's sweet to know, where I repine, that Highbrow's hurts are worse than mine. When we upset he was beneath; men gathered up his scattered teeth, and pulled a easting from his back, and put his fragments in a sack. nd i again he drives a wain, mc Ihinks he will lie safe and sane, he'll scan the highway ns he tools, and keep his mind on useful rules.
