Rippling . Rhymes,

The ‘day’s drawing closer when
Grigsley the grocer must close up
his store; the sheriff. so fateful. with
documents hateful approaches his
door. Neglecting his knitting. this
grocer is hitting around in his car;
We see him go scooting wildly piroot-
ing to places afar. When business
is ended it truly is splendid to joy-
ride a while: it makes a. man merry
to burn up the prairie for mile after
mile. It's well to be hitting high
places, it‘s fitting. when duty is done.
when one has been wprking st tarp»
ing or clcrking to rake in tho moo.
But sorrow is trailing the guy who
is sailing around in his cart. neglect-
ing his duty to study the beauty of
roadhouscs smart. The man who
would flourish mast guard well and

“Smokeless” Coal

and Maryland and the smokeless

properly fired and the drafts pro-
perly regulated. these coals can be
burned without smoke and will do-
rnsit very little soot in the furnace
and smoke pipe or chimney.
These smokeless coals are avail-
able in practically all the eastern
markets where anthracite is the
customary fuel. They are higher
‘li heat value and usually contain
it‘ss ash than anthracite. and as a
general rule can be bought consid-
(ruhly chcnpcr. Because of the
higher heat value, if such coal is
sold at two-thirds of the price of
anthracite. the purchaser actually

heat for his money. With proper
cure ill operating his furnace he
can rs-rllizc this entire amount of
savings. but ("'t‘n with careless

America‘s Opportunity.
A llUbiC‘i‘ motive than the desire
to have America pick European
Cluwlnuts out of the tire must ani-
lllute representnthe men of many
coulltrivs in their insistence that the
Isa-operation of this government is
essential to the revival of normal
life abroad says the New Haven
Journal Courier. That this coun-
try should steadfastly watch out.
that in any consideration it gives the
world wide problem it should not be
caught in national prejudices and
racial llatrcdt’. need not he empha~
sign]. it is one of those things that
goes without saying. But that the
fear of becoming so entangled should‘
silence both out thoughts and our
consciences is an altogether different
proposition. More than crer is it
true that the side lines is no safe
place for this great country to occu-
py. It was not a. safe place to sit
during the earlier years of the world
minis we found out to our cost.
and it is not a. safe place to sit now.
Should another war come. wholly
unprovoked by us. we should be in-
cvltably swept into it, this time with
tremendous costs. .
it is inconceivable that with so
many of our statesmen visiting Eu-
rope this past summer with the rare
opportunities given them to get at
the real state of things a common
understanding of just. what America
can do should be lacking. Trained
presumably in the science of politics
and psychology of human nature,
the task of finding a way to contri-
bute to the solution of the problem
should be comparatively easy for
them. ]f_it is not, then their use-
fulness in public life may be serious-
ly questioned. If. on the other build
their attitudes are determined by do. ”
mcstic politicos wholly. they are
guilty of the crime of playing with
fire. They are political arsonists. To

remotest chance of considering a ll-
beml treatment of the inks-allied
debt. when at any moment it: may he
found to be a direct factor in the
future peace of the world is mad-
ness. It may not become so, but to
claim that it never will is to deliber-
ately close one’s eyes to a. possibility.
