Secretary Hughes says it’s 5-1-3 and
that lower jaw of his is ample evidence
that he means what he says!
If Emory/teaches all things, as well
as those Emory boys sing and .make
music then good for Emory college.

Then again, while it is a little be
lated, we ought to be thankful that
our northeaster and Senator Watson
have both subsided!
If you wunt to do your share of the
Christmas business—the ho 11 da y
trade, then you should advertise In
The Nows. It will bring it to your
very doors.
This is the first of December. Do
you realize that there are but twenty
one more business days until Christ
(mas? How about that Christmas
shopping?
Women employed in the United
States post offices can now have a
husband and a Job too, if they so
elect. Now, if It wore only leap year,
these women might find a way!
It would appear that each time one
# of those German reparations payments
become due, we hear much talk of a
crisis and up economic collapse. The
Hun has a way all his own.
Tho nine powers who have agreed
to withdraw their postal systems and
Courts from China might also scatter
a little light by explaining what they
were doing there to start with.
Uncle Ham has finally turned his
task to the one thing that is absolute
ly necessary to the restoration of nor
mal in the world.
The United States is to Join hands
with the other great powers In tho
effort to stabilize tnlbrnational ex
change. That and that alone will re
store our European trade.
According to stun* physician**. Home
fl.vo hundred inmanro of the state ay
lum have been placed there by the
number* of their families for convon
lenvo sake. In that event why should
not the state seek payment from these
unscrupulous people for the support
of their kinsmen and why not u little
publicityt ltoth would help.
The hurkcmloii ban been made to
News that Brunswick women be
admitted to membership In the llruns*
wick Hoard of Trade at a nominal
cost for dues, say 15 per year. Fine!
Women are doing great work In na
tion. state and city building these
da vs and they would pruvj' to be a
real factor In the local Hoard. By all
means admit them!

LAWYERS MAKING LAWS.
Of the total number of members of
both houses of Congress there are
333 or more than sixty per cent, law
yers by profession. They have, it
may be presumed, surrendered the
the profession of practicing law for
the better business, from their person
al standpoint, of making laws, says
the Savannah Morning News. “Their
standpoint” stands —some will differ
on that point and contend that it is
not better business for the rest of the
folks; some will differ again and sug
gest that instead of these lawyers
making more laws than might be prof
itable, with reference to the general
welfare clause be unmaking a few
now -made/tucked away, and forgot
ten. If a lawyer, how r ever, isn’t com
petent to make the laws who is bet-
ter equipped—that is to say, a patri
otic, honest, level-headed lawyer?
There are some other professions
in Congress—two who unabashedly
declare themselves to be 'capitalists,
and twc who are dentists; twenty-two
are farmers and five are school teach
ers, and there are eight “puzzles”—
they List themselves as' “professional
office-seekers.” That last group of;
eight—they may be bluffing, it may be
true, and they believe in brazening it!
out to claim credit for the effect ofj
that spirit in America which always:
admires a “game sport;’' or *it may j
be that they are not really office-!
seekers, save, since they have sought
and feund their own office, that they
now spend most of their aryl their
people’s time in seeking jobs for their
henchmen, •
Respecting the ballings which at
tached to the members of the Senate
and House before they landed in seats
of the, at times, mighty funny repre
sentatives of people In the national
legislature, the complete result of an
analysis shews the following, classifi
cations:
Lawyers, 333; editors, 24; farm
ers, 22; manufacturers, 19 f real
estate-insurance, 13; hankers, 11;
professional office-holders, 8; doc
tors, 8; teachers, 7; mining engi
neers, 5; contractors, 3; chemists,
3; public utilities owners, 3; mer
chants, 3; postal wor. srs, 2; cap
italists, 2; printers, 2; dentists, 2;
commission merchants, 2; iron
nr. lder, 1; wholesaler, J; glass
blower, I; owner clipping bureau,
1; lumber dealer, 1; miller, 1;
well driller, 1, and unlisted and
doubtful, 48.
It Is ridiculously easy to see why
the lawyers and the editors are thero;
it i# not surprising, except for their
confessions, to discover those immor
tul eight professicnal office-seekers
among those permanently present; It
Is Just the cleverest expected thing
to find one owner of a press clipping
bureau monopolising his seat; but the
impenetrable'problem of tho table Is
Hie last Item:
"Unlisted and doubtful, 48."
They ought to organize Into the
Third House, that bunch of paradox
es who are both “unlisted" and
“doubtful,” both of those thing, at
one and the same, not to say identi
cal and synonymously synhmnous
time. That imperfect forty-eight
holds the balance of power; probably
has held it all the time when Every
body was running around trying to
find the balance of power* that had
been mislaid somewhere.

STAY IN SCHOOL. '

The novelty has worn off high
school for a lot of first year boys
and girl* and the seasons of the mid
year exam* looms ahead not distant
ly. Wages that could he made for all
manner of work that could be d</e
during high school hours, and night
i ,udv is becoming a bore when there
la a. mu.'h dancing that can be done
absolutely without stury. This i* the
season when interest In school 1* apt
to wane to the vanishing point and I
the high school youth is likely to drop
his studies and quit school for g.-od.
Don’t do it boys and girls, however
strong the temptation. School time
is all too short, and this is not said
from a sentimental or poetic point of
view either. School time is too short
for the accomplishment of the vast
preparation that for after
’M'hool days. You can spend the rest
of the nights reading five-foot and
ten foot shelves of books but you nev-
er can bring back the opportunities
for self development that are present- :

days. •

A STORY AND A MORAL.
Put cne hundred men cn an island
I where fish is a staple article of sus
! tenance. Twenty-five of the men
