You say it is pleasure—well, enjoy it. But joyous recollection is no longer joy. That which ends in self is mortal; that alone which goes out of self into God lasts forever.—Frederick W. Robertson. WOMEN WORKING FOR BIG VOTE IN STATE Thanks to the goodly activities of the enterprising, patriotic women of California, a stirring movement is on foot to induce many voters who neglect to vote, to change their ways, on November 4, and cast ballots. The California League of Women Voters is especially active in this. The executive council of this worthy organization decided that November 2 shall be "the get-together-vote" Sunday throughout the state. Clergymen will be requested, in their Sunday church services, to preach on the duty of citizens to vote. This movement is altogether commendable. California has been as backward in this as other states. This state usually is in the forefront in all that makes for good citizenship and good government. It is to be hoped that the plans to increase the state's vote may be fruitful on election day. Over in Aurora, Ill., they are going at this thing with unusual vigor. The president of the Kiwanis club there announces that the names of all legal voters who fail to vote on November 4 will be published. "Every man and woman who is entitled to vote and who stays away from the polls on election day is a slacker," says this militant Kiwanian. And he is right. When Secretary of State Hughes says something, he really says something. W. C. T. U. HONORED FOR ITS GOOD WORKS When Secretary of State Hughes says something, he really says something. W. C. T. U. HONORED FOR ITS GOOD WORKS To the W.C.T.U. belongs the credit for pioneering rational, convincing temperance teaching in this country. This splendid organization, so long under the brilliant leadership of Frances E. Willard and other devoted women, strove to promote temperance sentiment through intelligence. Through their efforts, seconded by temperance men, the teaching of the effects of alcohol and narcotics on the human system became a part of the common school curriculum in many of the states. Thus a generation grew up with intelligent conception of the harmful effects of alcoholic drinks upon the human body, mind and soul. This solidified sentiment in favor of prohibition, and to this pioneer effort is attributable that growth and spread of sentiment and conviction which culminated in the Eighteenth Amendment. The W.C.T.U. pioneers had no path strewn with roses. Their work was hard and their lot was made bitter. But they fought the fight and kept the faith, and the W.C.T.U. of today exults in its achievements. Do not look at the sunshine of prosperity through the smoked glasses of pessimism.

One of them had finished her lunch; the other was about to begin. The girl who had finished sat back in her chair and lit a cigarette. The other seemed to resent this and said, "I suppose you do not object to my eating while you are smoking!" The first girl looked at her and answered brightly: "Well, no not so long as I can hear the orchestra." The harassed-looking man was rushing hither and flither round the store in a state of wild excitement. He went up to the top floor and down to the basement. Finally, he had arrived on the ground floor, looking hot and flushed, when he was approached by a polite floorwalker. "Are you looking for something in men's clothing?" inquired that individual politely. "No, no," roared the excited one; "not men's clothing—women's clothing! I've lost my wife!" In the garden was an apple tree, and father had forbidden Betty to touch the apples until they were ripe. One day father came into the nursery looking very stern. "Somebody has been at the apple tree. I have found three corns on the grass." Betty tried her best to look as if she had never seen an apple. At last she blurted out: "Well, it wasn't me, 'cause I ate my cores." PARAGRAPHS By ROBERT QUILLEN Another thing that is silent and strong is Limberger. Some wives use a quick-work-ing polson and some fry everything. The music we like best in a movie theatre is the "Refrain from Talking." Some kind friend should lend Spain a book about England and Ireland. The most prolific cause of war is the conviction that one can lick the other fellow. The world progresses. Once mud was used to make houses; now it is used as political argument. The worst thing about the itch for office is that election may make it settled in the palms. The happiest people are those young enough to think the back seat was made to hold six. The thing that makes the capitalistic system hateful is mediocre ability as a money getter. If you think the idea of self-determination didn't take hold, study modern children. If at 12 he believes in Santa Claus, at 25 he believes he is the only man who ever kissed her. A lot of men who dance now couldn't get by if skirts were long enough to step on. Japan is still sore about immigration. Well, doubtless it is more trouble to smuggle them in. Some aliens learn Americanism slowly, and some are intolerant even before they come over. ABE MARTIN Whether a young couple quarrels or not, th' girl has it make up after ever kiss. If wed give a prospective voter a nickel cigar t'day he'd git out an' work against us. All children who are susceptible to scarlet fever are in constant danger of contracting it. Having detected such susceptibility with the Dick Test, immunization against the disease is then a simple matter. The grandmother who used to die when the team played at home is the gay lady with bobbed hair in the third row. French is an easy language to learn. The hard part is to make Frenchmen understand it. Personally, we don't believe the story about the hen that developed a taste for clay and is now laying brick. Virtue may be its own reward, but it doesn't make you bullet proof if the dry agent thinks your quart of vinegar isn't vinegar. Correct this sentence: "I have never broken a law," said No. SUNSHINE PELLETS Though it's nothing at all But wood alcohol, They call it Scotch Whiskey." Said Chemist McCall. A bad lie has spoiled many a good score. For better health, hill climbing beats pill timing. Too often the "go getter" who works under high pressure has it. It's a terrible world. We're still livin' in; Where nature says "fat" And fashion says "thin." Often the radio can do more for a case of "nerves" than the medicine can. Any remedy you may take, the death toll you got well, will cure within 24 hours. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1924 FORMS THAT LIVE TIMES GO BY TURNS The lopped tree in time may grow again; Most naked plants renew both fruit and flower; The sorriest wight may find relief from pain; The driest soil suck in some moistening shower; Time goes by turns, and chances change by course; From foul to fair, from better hap to worse. The sea of Fortune doth not ever flow; She draws her favors to the lowest ebb; Her tides have equal times to come and go; Her loom doth weave the fine and coarsest web; No joy so great but runneth to an end; No hap so hard but may in fine amend. Not always fall of leaf, nor ever Spring; Not endless night, yet not eternal day; The saddest birds a season find to sing; The roughest storm a calm may soon allay. Thus, with succeeding turns God temperer all. That man may hope to rise, yet fear to fall. A chance may win that by mischance was lost; That net that holds no great takes little fish; In some things all, in all things none are crost; Few all they need, but none have all they wish. Unmingled joys here to no man befall; Who least, hath some; who most, hath never all. —Robert Southwell. COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying GASOLINE IN INDUSTRY—Christian Science Monitor An interesting feature of the American Chemical Society at Ithaca, N.Y., recently, was the discussion by experts of the problem of gasoline and the effect upon industry and commerce of the means which have been and are being developed by which the internal combustion engine is made more adaptable and more efficient. But a warning was sounded to the effect that the future automotive transportation, particularly, depends essentially on progress made in the "cracking" of petroleum, and this regardless of all political controversies, patent litigation, or other retarding factors. It was state, however, that in all probability the efficiency of the gasoline engine will be tremendously increased. In this connection the important fact was disclosed that under even the most favorable conditions at present the utilization of gasoline in automobile engines is less than 15 per cent efficient. But it should not be forgotten that the automobile and the auto truck are not the only consumers of gasoline fuel. On the farms, in portable mills and factories, and even in large building operations, the gasoline engine is gradually being enlisted to do the work formerly done by horse or steam power. It operates the tractor which propels the farmers' plow, his seeder, his reaper, and the other implements used in the planting and harvesting of his crops. It furnishes power for the hay press, the ensailage cutter, the pump, the churn and the woodsaw. It is superseding the donkey engine on building sites, and doing the work of a dozen carpenters or their apprentices in sawing and planing boards and timbers. It is operating street cleaning devices in the cities, propelling the road repatring machinery of the country and generally making it indispensable in other lines of purposeful activity. On the seas, in the lakes and the rivers it is supplanting the ancient mast and the steam engine, while on an increasing number of short-line railroads it is furnishing the motive power for cars and trains. The present may go down in history as the "electric age", but it is important to take into account the practical everyday utility of the somewhat familiar and tractable internal combustion engine which has become the willing and obedient servant of the masses. It is important, at the present stage of development, to consider the possibilities of that increased efficiency which has been forecast.

THE "FOUNT OF WISDOM" "Which questions, altogether fundamental, one might think in any Philosophy of History, have since the era when the monkish analists were wont to answer them by the long-ago extinguished light of their Missal and Breviary, been by the most philosophical Historians only glanced at dubiously from afar; by many, not much as glanced at. "The truth is, two difficulties, never wholly surmountable in the way. Before Philosophy can teach by Experience the Philosophy has to be in readiness, the Experience must be gathered and intelligibly recorded. Now, overlooking the former consideration, and with regard only to the latter, let any one who has examined the current of human affairs, and how intricate, perplexed, unfathomable, even when seen into with our own eyes, are their thousand-fold blendng movements, say whether the true representing of it is easy or impossible. "Social Life is the aggregate of all the individual men's lives who constitute society; History is the Essence of Innumerable Biographies. But if one Biography, nay our own Biography, study and recapitulate as we may, remains in so many points unintelligible to us; how much more must these million, the very facts of which, to say nothing of the purport of them, we know not, and cannot know!" AREN'T FOLKS FUNNY? Mrs. Brown thinks Mrs. Smith is "old-fashioned." She's right—for Mrs. Smith insists on baking her own bread. "She could get good bread at the bakery and save all that time and work," says Mrs. Brown. And then Mrs. Brown turns right around and does her own washing—and she could "get good washing" from the laundry and "save all that time and work." Aren't folks fudgy?
