"Spagetti is the queerest food,
I've seen our Anna cook it,
And though it's very good for me
It really doen't look it.
It will not stay upon my fork
No matter what I do,
And goes sliding down my throat
Before I think to chew."—Ex.

Colliers—that grand bulwark of
the special interests and first aid
to the Hopeless 'in the recent cam-
paign—has not yet had time to stret-
ch 'its amazingly elastic nft d (con-
science if you like) to the point of
approving the choice of the people on
November 7, and still characterizes
the outcome as "astonishing." Ap-
parently the thing that is astonishing
to Colliers is that the people did not
accept the judgment of Colliers as to
the total unfitness of Mr. Wilson for
the presidency.
Colliers is the "national weekly
—Colliers itself frankly admits it on
its cover page each week. Besides
being the self-confessed "national |
weekly", Colliers can also lay claim j
to h,avir?g the most elastic mind in |
the country. Given plenty of time j
CoUieis can stretch its editorial in-
telligence to cover almost any desir-1
ed political angle—only on the scale
on wnich Colliers operates, this re-
quires quite a bit of time. How-
ever, given the time, Colliers cjtn
easily adjust the focus of its poli-
ticasl glasses to make black appear
perfectly wiiite—and if one followed
the ltgic of Colliers editorials and
ignortu the facts that are happening
all ever the country every day, one
uiight even be able to glimpse things
through Colliers glasses.
Colliers latest grievance is that the
democratic party appealed to "sloth-
ful ease", happiness and prosperity t
make votes for Mr. Wilson, and char-
acterizes such tactics as "contempt-
uous," Reauing their presentation of
the subject one might even believe j
that Colliers really was not aware
of the fact that the republican party
flooded the country with literature
and the newspapers with glaring dis-
play advertisements charging the
president of the United States with
cowardise, incompetency and mis-
management, and that throughout
the north the appeal of sectionalism
—the bloody shirt -was used again-
st Mr. Wilson constantly. One
might think Colliers was unaware
tuat the republican papers through-
out the campaign charged Mr. Wil-
son 'with favoring the south, that
the "rebel south" was running the
country—oi^e might believe these
things we say, if ordinary logic and
common sen^e did not preclude the
possibility of such belief. • .
Unfortunately, however, one can
scarcely conceive of Colliers being
igilorant of a fact which all the bal-
ance of the country knows so well,
and as a consequence we are bound
to iwfler ttfcat Colliers elastic con-
science has been working again and
that Colliers does not believe; "that
sauce for the goose is sauce for the
gander", or that a direct appeal to
the bitter predjudices of 'fi4 is
bad as calling the atttention of vo-
ters to the fact that the country is
n,ot at war and that most of us are
happy and prosperous and taking a
certain amount of "slothful ease."
However, time will remedy many
ills, and unless Colliers is retained
—handsomely and immediately for
the 1920 campaign by the faithful
remnant of the Old Guard, we shall
confidently expect to see Colliers e-1
lastic mind stretch around to the,
point of view that will leave it "i
fhe clear" when the time comes to
sign contracts for the 1920 campaign.
