_ ' ? We all desire to Ire fair in politics,
but we have noticed that friends of
the winning candidate are always in
accord thai the means were iair( and
that Ji really doesn't make so much
difference so long as the right man
As the census reports continue to
roll in ft is increasingly apparent that
a large proportion of rural districts
hare lost in population. The cities are
Oalnina at an astonishing rate. If
II" keeps up we will be a citified, nation
and will have to import our grub
from Ttmbuctoo.
j
' It is said that the cost of constructing
houses at present is so hi;,
tkat great difficulty is experienced1 in
mu cities in selling them. This situation
will cure itself. When costs get
, too high the demand automatically
'decreases, and lessened demand low?
prices. The situation will be much
roved in a year or so.
One of the hard things to agree
on is street Improvements, especially
among the folks on a street thought
to neec improving. L.ots 01 ioiks are|
heartily in favor of street improve-1
meats when the -other fellow pay. |

WORK OF GRADUATES.
Not only do fev high school "swec
girt graduates" designate their lifework
as housekeeping, but few of the
sweet boy graduates announco an
intention to go into farming.
Business and the professions gef
the boys, just like they get the girls.
Of course, a large .proportion of the
girls later marry and go into housekeeping,
but the point is they get into
that line of endeavor by accident
?after they have fallen in love and
married?and not as an aim in life
j^orthy of preliminary announcement.
High school graduates among the
~ *tboys must have learned that farming
,nowadays offers great opportunif
to the trained mind; that it has de>
yeloped to a point where the only far\
mer likely to make a large success is
the one with a background of education.
j ,. - ? .
The hoys have the educational
background, all right, but they don't;
head towards farming. They want to :
be engineers, chemists, doctors, lawyer*
and "business administrators."
One reason for their lack of enthusiasm
for the farm is that it r$?>)
quires some capital to start one. One
. can become an engineer and needs no
capital to begin working for a steel
company; little money is needed to
start in business as a business administrator.
These are salaried jobs. But
farming is first of all a capitalistic
Job. It reguires capital?and plenty
of it?in these days of high land
prices.
Yet what finer example of business
administration could it be for a young
man to obtain an agricultural education
and then exercise his business
administration ability in convincing
anmphnHv with mnnpv thnt hp io a
pood person to start up in the farming
business. That would be a success
in business administration worth
while.
WHERE WILL IT EM)?
The Herald is not an alarmist, but
it does not like the looks of things
in Europe. A dark war cloud is hanging
over the continent and it will require
clever diplomatic work to keep
N it from drenching that war-ridden
country in another deluge of blood.
Not until recently have we here in
America paid much attention to the
advance of the Bolsheviki. We were
content to let them fight among
themselves, hoping that the worst
elements in Russia would finally destioy
each other, and then would come
the dawning of a glorious peace. But
the Bolsheviki army is spreading at an
alarming rate and yesterday's dispatches
told v s they were hammering
at the gates of Warsaw.
^ One/'Poland has fallen before their
advance they are likely to turn their
taees toward Germany and Austria,
and from Germany and Austria to
France and England. As their ar
mies advance ubjt seem iu gamci
new recruits from conquered territory,
and if they should invade and
overrui# Germany and Austria there
it no telling how many seasoned soldiers
would be added to their ranks.
The question on every person's lips
Is why doesn't England and France
send armies into Poland an/ help the
Poles check the advance of the Bolaheviki
before it is too late?
England and France would like to
do this very thing, but while there is
danger without there is greater danger
from within. The spirit of Bolshevikism
has spread into these countries,
and it is feared that any attempt
to send soldiers to Poland wo.ili
4
be the signal for Uprisings at home.
As stated in the beginning, we are
not an alarmist, but there is no te;
where it ajill end. The situation I
is almost, as tfitical as it was 'in'
W" }f
I Three thousand miles of w^br,
separate us from the Bolshevik! armies
but the spirit is here in Amer-'
ica just the same. How deep or ho* I
strong*it is we do not know, but that!
{it is here is a fact. We of the south!
do not feel it, because there is more'
pure, unadulterated Americanism
(south of the Mason and "Dixon line
that can be found in any other part
'of the western hemisphere. But the.,
jnave 11 in tne norm, tne east ana tnt
, west, and as some one has said they
are awaiting the signal to light tht
! torch. * . ,
It will take shrewd diplomatic wor!
to avert another great.war. The signs
are on the horizen.
