GREETINGS TO OUR READERS at rock and refuge in whose cleft I hide from day to day, And resting on His plighted word, Just wait, and trust, and pray. —Anonymous. One borrows trouble only at a high rate of interest. "The Lord loveth a cheerful giver"—of joy, not of pain. The first lame alibi was that of Adam and Eve. There have been many since. The United States perhaps never again will have a President of log-cabin birth. Mankind will forget Robert Burns when the last library on earth is burned and forgotten. If Satan ever takes a vacation he evidently leaves a very capable substitute on his throne. Beware the man who offers to guarantee you fabulous sums if you invest in stock of some kind. Political agitating should be considered a breach of the peace at any time except during a campaign. Ordinary building activities may lessen, but the building of air cantles goes right on without slump. American troops conquered German soldiery only to surrender—many of them—to the charms of German fraulets. The motion picture would be "silent drama" if the people sitting around it would keep still. AMERICA'S TROOPS MAKE MANLY RECORD United States troops are coming away from German soil at Coblenz, where they have been stationed since the Aralstice, without stain upon their honor. They leave successfully to the regret of the German people with whom they came into contact. They deported themselves like gentlemen. They won the respect and esteem of men, women, and children of that region. They come home without scandal. Their service there was delicate—particularly at first. But they soon won the hearts of the German population, and there was fraternizing, with no semblance of feeling such as usually obtains between victor and vanquished. It is worth a great deal to Americans to have their soldiery so highly esteemed abroad. The behavior of the American Expeditionary forces gave Europe a better insight into American character and ideals anything else could have done, perhaps. They were gentlemen. They behaved like manly men. They were brave, resourceful fighters, gallant and fearless on the firing-line. They were gentle and well mannered to civilians. Their record stands out in relief, a proud heritage of this Nation for all time. EXCHANGE LEGISLATIVE FOR COMMON A resolution is to be introduced into the state Legislature of Nevada to abolish the Legislature and to substitute for it a commission of seven members, to compose the legislative branch of the state government.

The motion picture would be "silent drama" if the people sitting around one only would keep still while the picture is showing. No matter how well a legislative body tries to dits work, the people always feel relieved when the day of final adjournment comes. Discord is at bat in organized baseball, in the game between the major and the minor leagues, but Harmony probably will strike it out. EXCHANGE LEGISLATIVE FOR COMMON A resolution is to be introduced into the state Legislature of Nevada to abolish the Legislature and to substitute for it a commission of seven members, to compose the legislative branch of the state government. The commission form of government for status has been discussed, more or less, for some time. It has points in its favor and there are objections to it. Much as the people in nearly every state are dissatisfied with legislatures, yet it is questionable whether they would consent to lose that close local representation in state affairs which the legislatures' as now constituted, give them. A commission of a few members would be considerably removed from the people, of any given locality. This privilege of local representation hardly would be surrendered by the people.

Revenge is sweeter. I've often stopped to wonder At fate's peculiar ways; For nearly all our famous men Were born on holidays. A DEAD HEAT Speed Flend—"Well, I'm afraid that train will beat us to the crossing." Passenger—"That's not what I'm afraid of. It might be a tie." The man who can't get his wife's attention any other way will find that he is most successful if he talks in his sleep. "I wish you'd send a large mouse trap to my house." "Yes, sir, and who is it for?" "Don't be silly, young man; it's for the mice, of course." A burglar entered the residence of a country editor in Iowa. The burglar managed to save his underclothes to escape in. The other day two women, one of whom was very deaf, were walking by the railway. Suddenly an express train rushed by, and as it passed the engine gave a double shriek that seemed to rend the sky. The deaf one turned to her friend and remarked with a happy smile "That's the first cuckoo I've heard this year." He Foozled "How did you get your moustache in this condition?" asked the barrister. NEW YORK, Jan. 29—New Jersey has implied every once in a while that our city, its nearest neighbor, was a bit grasping, and a bit too superior in our attitude toward that state which we treat as a group of commuting points for New York. But the latest incident may never be forgiven! A towing company, here in Manhattan has caused the U. S. Marshal to seize the beautiful $3,500,000 courthouse in Jersey City. The towing company has a claim of $1,200 damages against the county and has attached the courthouse to satisfy it. One can understand New Jersey's indication. To have its very courthouse taken over by a New York towing company does seem flippant treatment of the dignity and sovereignty of a perfectly official county. County officials declare it's an absurd joke, but the Federal authorities say, hope they'll have to go ahead and sell it unless the $1,200 is paid. After carefully considering all the offers made to him by motion picture producers its film stories concerning his life, his work and his message, M. Emile Coue and his advisers in New York yesterday announced that they have selected a smile two-reel educational story, written by Morley Lefflingwell of the firm of Lefflingwell and Scott, Inc., handling publication for M. Coue in connection with his visit to this country. M. Coue rejected all scenarios that were based on fiction or romance and in which he was invited to appear as an actor and which offered large financial benefits to him personally. He approved the educational script which merely illustrated the outstanding features and his personal appearance. PARAGRAPHS (By Robert Quillen) The meat on which a Caesar grows great is cannon fodder. The law concede that a man is innocent until proved dead broke. Poverty may be an aid to piety, but high rents make a good neighborhood that way. A psychologist is a waiter who knows you will be ashamed to pick up the silver. Geography note: The further London is from Paris, the nearer it is to Berlin. Fable: Seventeen girls applied for the job, and the boss chose the home-last one. The baseball season is over, but watching a man do an ear slide on an ice-covered walk is just as thrilling. Still, if men are to be victims of mobs because they know too much, most of us are safe. The difference between the church and vaudeville is that vaudeville isn't trying to crush the church's act. There would be more for patriots who contracted disease if patriots who contracted for war supplies had taken less. Education has now reached the point where almost everybody feels justified in calling everybody else morons. There are a lot of wicked things a nation can do, but success seems to justify most of them. Ancient patriots got their loot from the enemy; the moderns get it from the taxpayers at home. The girl worth while is the girl who can smile even if she has bad teeth. The world isn't growing better. It just seems that way because fewer famous men let their hair grow long. When the meek inherit the earth, they will come into possession of a lot of problems no meek man can handle. The difference between fining bootleggers and the old high-license clothes to escape in. The other day two women, one of whom was very deaf, were walking by the railway. Suddenly an express train rushed by, and as it passed the engine gave a double shriek that seemed to rend the sky. The deaf one turned to her friend and remarked with a happy smile "That's the first cuckoo I've heard this year." He Foozled "How did you get your moustache into this condition?" asked the barber. "Guess I'll have to take it off." "All right. I tried to steal a kiss from a girl who was chewing gum." If you can't do what you like, suppose you try liking what you do and see what happens. The Aftermath "When I looked out of the window, Johnny, I was glad to see you playing marbles with Billy Simpkins." "We wuzzn't playing marbles, ma. We just had a fight and I was helping him pick up his teeth." A Santa Ana druggist, advertises: "If you don't use our soap, then for heaven's sake use our perfumes." She—"What is this dark hair doing on your coat?" He—"That is the suit I wore last year. I expect the hair has been on if ever since you were a brunette, dearest." In New York a man burned his wife's clothes to keep her from running around no one noticed the difference. Optimist to pessimist—"You are so pessismic that you look in the death column for your name." A mosquito is a great screen actor, and he always gets by. M.

PAUL—Nothing is too small to escape the eagle eyes of the game lawmakers. Frogs are the latest of Minnesota animals—or fish or reptile, or whatever they are—to be provided for in the legislative provisions. Commissioner Avery has included in the "omnibus bill" a provision that the transportation of frogs out of the state, and that taking them for the market by means of pitfalls and screens is prohibited. Northern Minnesota resortkeepers complained that commercial froggers were making bait scarce. SOLONS PREPARE TO TAKE 30-DAY RECESS SACRAMENTO, Jan. 29.—California legislators today commence their final week's activities preceding the 30-day recess. By Friday at the latest the legislature will have adjourned, the members returning to their homes to peruse the biennial budget, the bills which have been introduced and discuss the situation with their home folk. There is every indication this week will be one of the busiest of the legislative season thus far. There will undoubtedly be a large number of escapе the eagle eyes of the game lawmakers.

Northern Minnesota resortkeepers complained that commercial froggers were making bait scarce. store been entered and cleaned of nearly everything easily turned into cash. In the last two and one-half months, the rebblers have made five visits and stolen $4,000 worth of merchandise. After each burglary, some new burglar alarm is added, but when the thieves return, they seem to have learned all about it and just how to evade it. Siegfried Trebitsch, the German dramatist, is responsible for much of the success of Bernard Shaw in Germany. Mr. Shaw, who is not ordinarily expected to do the polite thing, has reciprocated by making a translation and adaptation of the Austrian's "Jitta's Attonement." That should be enough, because aside from the interest in the triangle theme from a modern psychoanalytical point of view the flavor of Shaw permeates the lines and production. But the Shubtas have brought out Bertha Kallich, the best emotional actress of my knowledge, to fill the role of the wife. This rare lady, herself of foreign beginnings, has that charm of speech which carries a characteristic accent into English of perfect diction and beauty. Along side some of our stars who parade foreign connections in affected speech and mannerism, she icons a real artist. In many intense situations—and the play has many—she shows a fire of acting rare to our stage, and a demonstration of the thing which keeps Europe the laboratory from which the real demonstrations of the theatre come. I don't suppose employers are necessarily any more moral than employees and I suppose after all morality on their part is just as important. That is John Emerson's insistence and it seems entirely reasonable. Mr. Emerson, who is president of the Actors' Equity Association, declared on his return from a conference with Will Hays the other day that the morality clause in the proposed standard contract is an insult to actors everywhere, but that "We are perfectly willing to insert one in the contract, providing there is also a managers' morality clause." Morality is a broad term and is just as estimable in employers as in employers as in employees." National Language Hope of P.I. Senator MANILA, P. I., Jan. 29.—A Philippine national language may be the result of a resolution which Senator Villanueva has introduced in the senate. The resolution calls for the appointment of a permanent committee of one member from each of the larger language regions of the Philippines to study the question of evolving and adapting a national language, extension of one of the dialects or combining several of these.
