Herbert Hoover is in Florida
And welcome, us you miiy im

tribute,

for in tliis ease it is ilistanee
that, counts. Mr. Hoover is
within reaeh of the erowd from
"Washington, and that crowd he,
"must deal with until after
March 1.

When his work begins Mr.

I large the working' space in the
AVhite House, the "offices,"
probably to make room for spe

other work that he has in mind.
Messrs. Hill, Maehold and
Hilles are said to be "Mr. Hoo
ver's triumvirate to keep New
.York state in line and hold the
'gains among independent vot
ers won in the last election."
What happened in the last
election is nut understood by
.anybody who imagines that it.
is simply a case of "independ
ent'' voters moving fnnu mu
party to the other.
j A letter by (ieiieral Yon
Hindeuburg, president of the
German republic, to be sold at
auction, says "tin; luiiser is no
Mleserter." The armistice stop,
ped the war, says (Jeneral Ilin
ilenburg, and so the kaiser had
liu opportunity "to die like a
hero at the head of his troops."
The kaiser left, for Holland be
cause he did not want to stir
tip civil war at home.
The kaiser was no coward,
and his regiment of lull sons
were not cowards. 1 tut they
missed many opportunities to
"die like heroes at the head of
their troops" before the war
Mopped. That hurt, them with
(.iermany. One little wound, on
one little prince, would have

"holi dogs,'' 'were eaten last

Properly made, well cooked,
eaten at regular hours and
chewed slowly to avoil swallow

dogs'' arc good for men. liut

That is an interesting mir
