The W»n that food# on his own greatness will never be troubled with the .gout; Judging by reports from abroad the soMier'a query now is “When do we go from bore?*’ The formalities of return visits a* mong nations promise year# of joy­ ous anticipation, The boys ■who are returning, are more, anxious to find the girl they left behind them than the old job. • We had four years of war and from all indications i t looks as if we were to have four years a t peace making, • What body of men is better fitted to discuss, reconstruction .problems than the lumber dealers unless it be the carpenters and the brick masons? * I t is to be,1hoped that, the boys, re­ turning form “over-there” will bring back all their ability to, fight—for good government.

If .the state legislators -will' -only abolish d lot of surplus jobs which are being held down by from 8 to 5 thousand dollar men, our taxes will cease to climb. This surely must be the beginning of the Millenium Period, for Cana­ da's labor leader, Gustave Francq, is proposing.a fi-hour day and a 5-day week.

TWENTY YEARS AGO. In a senes of little paragraph un­ der the heading, “The Year# Ago”, we find one which reads; “Running a country newspaper was not a busi­ ness.” The paragrapher wa# right. Bui t}>a war certainty ha# shown the editors and owners of country news­ paper# th a t their business is a busi­ ness after all and must be run on a business basis. The good old days, when the editor could loaf around with a ' pipe in his mouth and accept cord-wood on sub­ scriptions are no more, During the war, the value of the paper to -the community and to the country at large was dearly demonstrated. His full share of the burden, of helping to' win the war fell on the country editor and he bore it bravely’and loyally. Hare and there a weekly paper has “gone to the wall”; but largely they have met all conditions, and given .tylendid service to home-and country. And out of i t all has come great good for the paper because it has been demonstrated, beyond any question that advertising pays. The govern-, ment has learned i t in the liberty Loan drives; the Red Cross and other organizations connected with the war relief work admit that the success of -these movements,has been through, the influence of the. home papers. Durind all these demands for free space, which after all is their stock in trade, it was given liberally. Expenses yent up. The cost of material and labor advanced, but the government continued to demand -the support of the country- newspapers, Now the war, is won and the country newspaper owner has the satisfaction of knowing th a t he did his bit to the limit. But he has learned that run­ ning his paper is a business and here­ after he will domand the treatment ac corded other business men.' He has a right to it. In his plant he has an in­ vestment equal or greater than that in the average stock of merchandise car­ ried in any store in town. He must meet his bills on much shorter time than in the days before the war.. The government taught -the news­ paper men a valuableJesson ..when it* demanded that all subscriptions be paid-in advance. This rule was noth­ ing more than that enforced by banks in collecting the interest on’ notes in advance. In other words the .govern­ ment was requiring that the news­ papers raise their standards of b u s i­ ness on par w ith’ other commercial institutions. .While the government has taken a heavy toll from the pub­ lishers. of the laijd yet they have all given freely and in return will greatly profit from a better conducted bus! ness. ’The government has seen the need of the press and to make it of still greater use in the future by mak­ ing i t stronger financially-it has been necessary to revamp old methods of doing ubsiness.

As long as two eminent statesmen, Taft and Bess cannot agree ore the league of nations plait What right has the average citizen to express a pos­ itive opinion. Many ate - convinced tha t both have correct ideas but as they differ so widely on the main * point everyone is puzzled to know , who is right and who is wrong. L, J. Tabor, president of the Ohio State Grange, advocates that motor ears be assessed on the basis of 20c per horse power and 30c per hundred on their weight which Would list a Ford a t #10 and a 12-ton truck a t #87.60, also that the inheritance and income taxes be increased but held in check until the federal government softens its rates. Inheritance tax should begin a t #3,000 a t a low rate and advance to 12 and 15 per cent.

The question is asked:. “Which pdri of a carriage wheat moves faster, the top or. bottom7* All depend* upon what is meant, by this question..* It by lifts is meant the speed of the rim pf wheel In relation to ij» axis (hub'), then there is no difference; If it relates to carriage* in motion, then the top moves faster, . When the for­ ward motion of. the carriage la con­ cerned, the point of contact of the wheel with the ground (not the hub) becomes the momentary center of « circle, of which the radius is the diam­ eter of the wheel, In a partial revo­ lution, therefore, the point a t tho top of the wheel would have described a much greater are than the paint at -tlie-bottomr Intlnrsimnrtiroe;,—rirpme-f-thee^ f’cal demonstration can bo had by tak­ ing a wheel of any kind, and marking points at top and bottom.

Secondly, she should be .like an echo, to speak when she Is spoken to; but she Should not, like the echo, always have the last word. Thirdly, she should be like the town dock, always keep time regularly; but she should not, like the town clock, speak so lottd that all the town may hear her. —Boston Transcript, SUNM.SIIW L esson (By Rev. .P, E, yiTZWATER, D.

TOriC-Wboh to be bravo, The book of Joshua Is a history of the conquest of the promised land and its apportionment among the’ tribes of Israel, It takes Us name from Its principal character—Joshua. During the wilderness journey he was Moses’ minister, and captain of bis army. When Moses .was .dented the privilege of going over the Jordan, Joshua was appointed to the leadership of Israel. Being so long faithful as a servant, he Is now qualified to rule. Only those whO'have themselves learned to obey are fit to rule. Moses, the repre­ sentative of the law, brought Israel to the borders of Canaan. Joshua whs the man chosen to lead the people into the place of rest The name “Joshua” has the same derivation as the name “Jesus.” ,The law (Moses) was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ; but Christ (opr Joshua) has given us victory and rest. j, Joshua's Call (1 ;1J2). Moses, God's servant IS dead, but. God’s work must go on, He continues his work by Calling others to take it up, though he buries his workers. Joshua,/no doubt, wos.sorrowful over the loss of his master, but there Is no time for mourning. The best way to cure our griefs and sorrows Is to take up courageously the burdens and re­ sponsibilities which our leaders have laid down. II; God Renews His Promise of the "Land to Israel (1:3, 4), The promise had; been made t o . Abraham, and _ renewed to” Isanc, Jacob and Moses. It is now renewed to Israel when. i hey are about to cu­ ter upon its possession. The borders of the land were quite- large (v. 4) “from the wilderness and this Leb­ anon, even unto the great river, the . river Euphrates, all the ’land ,of the Hittites, and Unto the .great sea to­ ward the going down of the sun, shall “Be your coast.” The nearest" itr was . ever possessed was during the reigns of David and Solomon, though not then fully realized. This Country still be­ longs'to the Jews, aittf In God's own time they shall possess it. Their get­ ting possession of this lend was due entirely to themselves. God promised them, that* wherever their feet Set upon tlie land it was, theirs.. If they failed to secure possession It was be­ cause they failed- t<* claim i t We would all enjoy larger blessings if we would claim them. 111. God’s Presence „Promised to Joshua (1 ;5). . . Joshua was entering upon a peril­ ous npd difficult enterprise, hut. the' Lord said as he was with Moses so would he be with him- The difficul­ ties before him were: 1. The .Jordan river (v. 2). It was now at Its fiood (3:15), making it Im­ possible for armlqs to cross, •2. In the land the people were liv­ ing in. walled cities, Notwithstanding this, God's help insured success. (I) “I will not fail thee nor forsake thee.” (2)- 'There alkali not any man be able to stand before thee” (8) “As I was with Moses, so I will be with IV. Condition# of Blessings In the Land U:G-0). L “Be strong and of a good courage” (r. 6). His mission was to go In and divide the land among the tribes for an inheritance. God could not bless him if he should pluy the coward. 2, Unwavering obedience to the word of God (v. 7). In a land of Idolatry It requires much courage to obey the true God. The prosperity and gOod' success was conditioned upon unswerving obedience to God!# commands. In all his work he must conform his life to the law of God. To pass from the path outlined there­ in would bring disaster and rain, In order to accomplish this the law of the Lord must constantly •be In his mouth. He was to meditate therein day and night If we are to prosper In our Christian experience there must be that regular and reverent study of God’s Word. Joshua ren­ ders prompt obedience. He did not Btop to cavil, but at once gave orders, for the march. God made the plan and gave the directions. His respon­ sibility was to go forward without doubting, taking possession of the in­ heritance* sacrifice. A (fork that requires no sacrifice, does not count for much in fulfilling God's plan*. Bdt what is commonly called sacrifice Is the best, happiest Use of one’s self and one’s resources—' the beat investment of time, strength, and means. Be who makes no such sacrifice Is most to be pitied. He Is a heathen because he knows nothing of God,-—Samuel Chapman Armstrong. A Torch of One’s Own. As Plutarch tells us, “It*ls well to gb fof*a light to another man’s fire, but not to tarry by ltf Instead light*0 Ing a torch of one’s own.” A torch of one’s own! ‘That is a possession worth having, whether It be n flaming beacon on the bllHop or n tiny taper In the window.
