The simplicity of the President
should plea-e the mas-.es u-ho are
made to feel often that those in
authority boast themselves of their
power and the usual pomp atteud
inß't. II owever, simplicity will I
not please the crowd who think life

democracy, let all thing-- accord

The World's Tragedies
Today centuries ago, there was
enacted the greatest Tragedy eve f
conceived by mm orplanned by the
mind of the Infinite. On Cnlvary's
rugged brow the Cross with its
Victim bunging between .1 sin*
ctirsed woild and that world of cud
lesi joy, overshadowe-d the treat
tragedies of past and future tiras'
and pushed wide the gate for th:"
resurrection of » lie soul troin sin and
destruction. To millions living
and millions dead 'he Trpgedy of
the Cross becsme a vital force,
which entered iuto their lives and
made for hip,her ideals and heaven
born desires, ghitifying and uplift

A Call for Mothers r
"While their daughters "turkey
tnt" and "bunny bun," or parade
the streets dres ed more after the
f ishiou of the woman of the stvee's
than ot modest gitlliood, where ate
the mothers? If thoughtless girls
do .-tick tilings, what .-hull be said
of mothers who have ?.o far forgot
ten llie duties of mothetbood as to
permit or encourage them. Ai Palm
Hutch the other day when a
thoughtless (or worse) y ung man
had made all arrangements fot (he
} oungi 1 sit to tuikey trot in bath
ing costumes on the befell to the
accompaniment ol a talking tnach
ine, a mother wti i had a proper
sense of her duty decliued to have
her daughter t ike part in such a
proceeding and the vulgar perfor
mance was nipped io the hud-
But wlure are the mothers that
demand a tcstiaiuiug hand? Da
they no 1 oritur care about the
amusements their daughters seek?
Are they no longer concerned how
their daughters drefc? Is tniideniy
modesty becoming a thing of the
past? A revolution iu maimers and
morals is tnking place, with little
or no protest from those who should
be fust to speafc —the mothers.'
The vogue of filthy and baa&tly '
dauets in supposedly good society,
the vulgar aud suggestive styles,
and the general laxity of couduct,
even :>tuong boys and girls still iu
their tariv teen?, constitute a ter
rible indictment of the mothers of
the day whose eyes have been so
blinded that they do not see wluther
we are moving. Give us a revival
of old-fashioned mothers who will
restore tie simple customs that
u*ed to characterize the period of
childhood and Vonth."
The above is a clipping from
Leslie's Weekly and was handed to
us by one of the ministers of the
town with the request that we pub
lish it, which we take pleasure in
doing, as the check-rein is needed
on the modem "run away" society.
We thiuk it very important that all
thinking men as well as
women, should do whut they can
to put a stop to the thoughtless
ti. .I.i ui modem duss. -The
1, '.i t HIV Ohio has taken up the
matter and proposes to prohibit the
m arinof :>ny dreas not - miy ac
cord with deeeucr.

That Pride of Ownership
If you don't have a motor car yourself, a friend
probably has, or perhaps you have been picked
up by a comparative stranger on the way down /
town. You have enjoyed the ride and with every #
experience perhaps sub-consciously but neverthe
less certainly you felt a kind of envy for for the
man at the wheel.
v "
Buick Appearance
It s the appearance of the car that makes the people
take that second look. And did you ever realize what
an influence that second look has in giving you that
pride of ownership? It's a feeling you always have
when you own your own Buick.

Buick Power
The Buick overhead valve motor has more power per
•5 , v
cubic inch of piston displacement than any other type
of motor ever built. It cosls us more to make it but
it cb£ts you less to run it.
