GOVERNMENT A DANGEROUS BUZZ SAW.
Perhaps the strongest bulwark of the political boss is the almost univer
sal belief that principles are greater than men. Scarcely a village, town,
county or state that has not slipped over undesirable candidates as against (
decent men because of this conviction, so frequently in fact that it is time
we turned the microscope on this very vital assumption. Morals are largely
geographical and always subject to the times. The theory of right today may
be wrong tomorrow. In the early days principles in government may have
been more vital than men. Indeed this may be true today, but it is certain
that today the character of the men we choose to serve us is more vital than
ever before in history, for In matters of government we are compelled to put
blind faith in the men we choose to serve us. Government has become so
highly technical, so amazingly complex, that it is quite beyond the under
standing of the average individual. The subtleties of civic finance, the in
tricacies of export trade, the complexities of transportation problems by
land and sea, the technique of tariff, the bewildering, contradictory elements C
entering into scientific taxation, not to speak of the dazing problems of for
eign relations, have removed government so far from the ken of the average a
citizen that he has lost all touch with It; he feels it is something with which F
he has grave concern, but in which he dares not to express an opinion. His
happiness, his welfare, depend on the skill with which these technical prob
lems are confronted, yet they can be man-handled to his complete undoing
without his even sen.iing the folly of his representative. Summed up, gov- .
ornment has gone completely from the hands of the people; it seems to have s
outgrown the people. 'he people have not kept up with the procession. The
press has been insufficient as an educational force, not for lack of desire, but
because the press must exist and the people demand as the price of support
the publication of trivialities. The great city newspapers have come to be a t
mixture of Diamond Dick, Sherlock Holmes and Laura Jean Libbey, stripped
of personality, often devoid of principle, pandering to the intellect of the
flapper and assuming a "mis-leadership" based on bluff and bluster which N
rests on the inability of the people to tear away the mask of mock heroics and bi
disclose a half-baked understanding of our national vitamines. It seems as 01
If we must turn back the clock and take more careful measure of integrity lin
sad ability in those we must trust to do for us the things we are unable 22
ourselves to understand. If not this, then we need some new system of ed- B,
ucatioa in the land.

PROMISE LAND.
WI
sic
Most everything's a promise that we ruq acrost today; there's promises
of better things, and promise to pay. . . The seed-time holds a promise Mi
of the harves tthats' to come, and autumn brings its promise of the winter, leu
cold and dumb. . . The promise of allegiance to our country binds as all
-when the traitor breaks his promise, he is doomed beyond recall. .We
hng the glitterln' prospecks when they promise a reward,-and base our o
hopes eternal on the promise of the Lord. S
We love the lad that promises a rich expanse of life, and crown the ate
ttle aqueen that holds the promise of a wife. .. We seldom greet a
omise with the shadder of a doubt-and the things that promise nothin'
we are wise in kickin' out. . We smile at the clouds of promise, when Chi
the crops is needin' rain, and we recollect the promise when the rainbow ton
shlim again.-O, there's nothin' else but promise that can soothe the weary Ho'
soul, while the only thing that's certain is the thing we can't control! And
so, with helpful promises, bestowed on every hand, I wonder, after all, if 8
this could be the Promised Land?

Before the Golden Age.
Archeology has, in our day, become
one of the most vividly interesting and
thoroughly alive of pursuits, contin
ually opening up new avenues of in
quiry, and giving light and inspiration
to the whole field of art. Archeolog
ecal discoveries of the last fifty years
have shown that the golden age of
Greek art was more than two thou
sand years in the making. It is
strange enough to think that pre
viously it was regarded as a spon
taneous growth, with origins veiled in
lmpenetrable mystery. Now, the ad
venturer into the great regions of
knowledge, where the story of Greek
civilization enfolds Itself, may become
possessed of at least the main facts
of prehistoric epochs leg before Greek
art became GreekL-criner's Maga

Stick to Our
Standards
and you'll not get "stuck" when
you buy Mill Work for your new
Home. Hortman's Quality Stand
ards are the criterion to judge
money's worth by. No better Sash,
Doors, Frames, Mouldings, Screens,
Floorings, Wall Board Columns,
Stair Work and Trim can be pro
duced. Yet prices are right in
line with cheaply constructed stuff,
and lower when quality is equal.
Hortman's Standard designs are
very attractive, ane by purchasing
in immense quantities, as we do,
a more liberal assortment of styles
and sizes can be obtained without
adding to the cost of the home as
do odd, foolish shapes that mean
nothing but increased expense to
you and greater commissions to
the architect who Includes them
in his plans.
