THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11th 1921 LINCOLN AND OTHERS It is said that efforts will be made to make the inauguration of Mr Hard inK resemble as closely as possible that of Mr. Lincoln in 1861. If the imitation is, intended to extend as far as the personalities and characters or the two men it cannot by any possibili ty be other than a failure. Mr. Hard ing is no doubt a man of pleasing per sonality and of good intentions, but he is no Lincoln. There is nearer approach to the Lincoln character in the man who is soon to leave the Vhite House. Wil son, like Lincoln, knows the bitterness of unappreciation of great services rendered his country. In the darkest period of the Civil war the Republi can members of the United States Senate considered Lincoln a failure. They regarded him as a rather hope less creature, overwhelmed by respon sibilities which far overtaxed his abili ties, but who might be steadied and set right by wise Senatorial advice. The advice was solemly tendered, res pectfully listened to and flatly re jected, and the Senatorial dislike for Lincoln was greatly increased. Some 58 years later another group of Republican Senators (of which the President-to-be was a member) con ceived a great dislike for the man in the White House, who respectfully listened to but failed to head their nonderous advice. But the circum stance that the President was of the same party as his critics had protect ed Lincoln in a measure from the ma lignancy of open attack. Wilson being a Democrat there was nothing to re strain his Republican Senatorial enemies, and no other President has had to contend with quite such savage and unrelenting hatred as has been manifested against the present oc cupant of the White Horse during the past three years. Thero is nothing in the public career thus far cf Mr. Harding on which to base a comparison with Lincoln. But the simplicity, courage, humanity, sympathy and foresight of Lincoln have had their conterparts in the characteristics of the outgoing Presi dent, and future generations will ac cord to Wilson the proper measure of homage. There is a very remote possi bility that Mr Harding will ever be linked in public mind with Washington and Lincoln. There is almost the cer tainity that impartial historians will rank Woodrow Wilson with these im mortals of American statesmanship. ter, Mrs. S. R.

If a rat wants to ride in a Ford car, it's well enough to let the rodent have its way. R. Clarence Brake started to Sharps- burg tnis morning in his Tin Lizzie. Traveling leisurely along, he discover ed a rat had crawled from its hiding place to the foot of the car. He at tempted to kill the varmint but instead lost control of the steennir eear. The Ford smashed into a conveniently placed stump. Mr. Brake escaped un hurt from the mass of debris, but still looking for the rat. The past several days of snow, sleet and rain has about put the sand clay roads in the class of bad roads. Sandclay roads will not stand up un der heavy loaded trucks during weath er which has prevailed recently and this has long ago been given up as a fact. Sandelav roads are of the fair weather variety. Some folks seem to think from observation and informa tion gathered in other ways that even hardsurfaced roads will not stand up long under present day traffic of ton trucks; that is if hardsurfaced roads are built it 'will be necessary to limit the size and load over them or they will also go to the bad. After all will iron rails not be necessary to car ry large amounts of freight. "Harding to Make Many Appoint ments." Headline. Also many disappointments.

Woman's Screams In Pullman Car Reveal Presence Of Robbers On Train. Roanoke, Va., Feb. 3. A woman's screams in in a Pullman car on Nor folk and Western train No. 4, just west of Jaeger, W. Va.. early today disclosed that un inidentified man had rifled every berth in the car of money and valuables estimated at several thousand dollars. The man was captured , but made his escape from the vestibule of the train, af ter all but $14 of the loot had been recovered. According to train officials the man had robbed most of the berths in the morning hours while the pas sengers slept. He was in the act of entering a berth occupied by a woman nursing a sick baby. She frustrated and attempt to gag her, and her screams brought every passenger in the car from their berths. Simultan eously two porters, one at each end of the car appeared and closed in on the man. Train officials searched him, returned the valuables to the passen gers, and were in the act of escorting him to a day coach when he jumped from a vestibule while the train was going about 35 miles an hour. The thief was described as being about 40 years bid, welle dressed, and wearing a checkered overcoat. He was believed to have boarded the train at Welch, W. Va. CHAMP CLARK'S SHIRTS Champ Clark likes shirts that have a small red stripe. Not long ago he went into the shoo of a Washington barber-dasher to buy a dress shirt. Selecting one he gave the clerk a $10. bill and while waiting for his change wandered around looking at the shirts displayed. But let the former speak er tell us about it. "I found a fine shirts with small red stripes, and I like to wear that kind. During the war you could not get a shirt with red stripes which would not fade. I said to the clerk: "What is the "rice of that shirt?" "Three dollars." "Give me that and take it out of the ten." "When he came back with the change he did not have enough and I called his attention to it. "You are gounging me. What is that extra 30 cents for?" "That", replied the clerk, "is the sales tax that you d fools enacted up there in congress." A member of the legislature pro poses a bill making it a more serious offence to operate an automobile while under influence of liquor. The bill pro poses to prohibit such person from operating a car for 6 months follow ing conviction of driving a car while under the influence of whiskey.
