You cannot prove the existence of the spiritual world by reasoning—you perceive that by inward consciousness—J. F. Claike. Reckless driving usually, in time, ends disastrously. They need more business sense in the proceedings of Congress. Life not only is what one makes it, but life largely is how one takes it. "Misery loves company." And joy likes to have somebody help enjoy it. It is a safe assumption that President Harding does not think so highly of the United States Senate as he once did. Should a woman be elected to the United States Senate, they may as well amend the rules, to give her the last word. Outdoor life conserves vigor of body and mind. It is worth the while of every person to spend much time in the open air. President Harding's McKinley-esque urbanity carries him comfortably and unfriendly through many a critical, perplexing situation. One's aim should be to live each day as to add something tangible to the sum total of human comfort, welfare and happiness. The right test of success in life is, not only how much one gets out of INDUSTRIAL VIOLENCE IS DEPLORABLE Resort to violence in industrial controversies in the mining regions of Illinois brings to the fore the regretableness of outbreaks of this nature. There is no excuse for indulgence in violence, deliberately and wantonly, in connection with industrial controversies. There is no dispute between labor and capital that justifies the slaying of men. To recognize violence as ameans of settling industrial disputes, is to carry the whole body politic back into the dark ages, with might as the criterion, rather than right. This is insufferable in this country. Neither side to an industrial dispute either should resort to violence or provoke violence. There is, happily, much less of this violent spirit in industrial controversies than there once was. Truth is, seldom are such bloody outbreaks as that reported from certain districts of Illinois, to be found in this country. There is more restraint. This is particularly true of the ensuing strike of coal miners. There has been virtually no violence, except at certain points in West Virginia, and this late deplorable situation in Illinois. Reponsible leaders of labor organizations discountance violence, and the responsible element in the membership of those organizations abide by the laws and refrain from violent methods. TARiff BY EXPERTS IS IMPERATIVE NEED That tariff revisions should be based upon expert, scientific research made by duly-constituted Tariff Commission is the feeling among statesmen men in Congress and by President Harding's McKinley-esque urbanity carries him comfortably and unfriendly through many a critical, perplexing situation. One's aim should be to live each day as to add something tangible to the sum total of human comfort, welfare and happiness. The right test of success in life is not only how much one gets out of life for oneself, but how much one puts into life for others. One of the wonders of the universe is the law of gravitation—that law which preserves the earth a sphere and guides the planets in their course. The Minnesota woman who appears to become a United States Senator perhaps is a good housecleaner and knows where her services are needed. The great red planet is very near the earth, astronomically speaking. But not so near that "the man from Mars" could conveniently drop in for a call on Mother Earth. Lack of wisdom is shown by the one who keeps on compounding his or her mistakes, instead of profiting by them and leaving them off. The repeater of mistakes is on the high road of folly. Pure home life, when agreeable conditions in the home, helps greatly toward fostering virtue in boys and girls. Where there is happy, attractive life in the home, young people seldom drift into vice and crime. Two automobiles, running in opposite directions, cannot pass over the same spot of ground at the same time without meeting disaster. But a great many drivers seem not to have grasped it. A woman in the United States Senate would unliven public interest in Senate proceedings. If Mr. Bryan and a woman were in the Senate, the sessions of that body would become positively interesting to the people. The airship will not displace the motor vehicle on terra firma. Aerial craft unquestionably will come into much more common use. But coincidentally automotive vehicles on the ground also will be used more. The one will not supplant the other, but the two will supplement each other. "Crime waves" do not arise from one cause alone. There are many causes—some direct, some contributory. The so-called good citizen in some instances in some measure contributes to the starting and maintaining of these "waves". He is responsible by tolerating conditions TARiff BY EXPERTS IS IMPERATIVE NEED That tariff revisions should be based upon expert, scientific research made by duly-constituted Tariff Commission is the feeling among statesmen men in Congress and by the thoughtful adherents of all political parties. The professional politician, for reasons easy to discern, does not want scientific tariff. He does not want the tariff lifted from the slough of partisan political dissension and made an expert business issue, which it should be. The professional politician and place-hunter thrives on the tariff, but footballing it around in political campaigns for his own profit and the furtherance of his own political ambitions and schemes. Proposals are being made in Congress to revitalize the Tariff Commission and equip it to make scientific investigation and to be of real assistance to Congress in revising tariff schedules, from time to time. It is to be hoped, for the good of the country, that some project of this nature may be put through and the periodic upheavals in connection with the tariff, with resultant demorilization of business, and industry, may be avoided. Good roads are of tremendous material value to California. This can be appreciated by contemplating what conditions would be if this state were deprived of its improved highways and if it were thrown back to conditions of a quarter of a century ago. It is impossible even to imagine how serious such a calamitous condition would be. One of the best public-improvements that could be made in the Southwest is the building of the proposed Boulder Canyon dam. It would save many millions, in preventing floods, and would produce multiplied through irrigation and development of hydro-electric power. Boost the city in which you live on its own merits.

But the question does remain whether it is not possible to show that there were very decent Englishmen in England about the year 1776 without telling the "whole truth" about Hancock and Jefferson. MEN'S FRAILIES IN HISTORY It is essential for the education of the young mind and the teaching of good citizenship that the school-book be reminded in his textbook on American history that Jefferson was an atheist; that John Hancock was a smuggler, and that Samuel Adam was a political boss? A committee of twenty-one school teachers and principals says emphatically No. In a report presented to Superintendent Ettinger and based on an investigation of a dozen textbooks. One merit cannot be denied to this report at the outset. It draws no clean-cut issue when it lays down the following principles: The authorities have written from the point of view of a critical historian rather than from the point of view of atheacher. The pupils in our public schools should not be taught the personal fallings and weaknesses of our national leaders. It is admitted in the report that Hancock and Jefferson have been roughly handled with the very best motives. It was the purpose of the textbook writers to promote good relations between this country and Great Britain, and incidentally promote the cause of truth, by representing the Revolution and subsequent Anglo-American contempt—a sot altogether a contest between angels and devils. It has been a protest against jingoism which is altogether desirable. But the question does remain whether it is not possible to show that there were very decent Englishmen in England about the year 1776 without telling the "whole truth" about Hancock and Jefferson. The fear that our children will grow up with the notion that the Founders were an aggregation of demigods is on the whole unjustified. Life will teach them that at all times there are very few demigods. Here's a Good Source Put your money in a local manufacturing company for it on money invested and brings a payroll.

We do not see why something of the same charity should not be extended to Jefferson and Samuel Adams. At any rate, it is unfair to brand Hancock as a smuggler in a text-book where no room is available for examining the whole morale of smuggling in the eighteenth century. But in the last resort it comes down to making history interesting: Friends of Mr. H. G. Well's "Outline of History" concede fairly serious defects in the matter of bias, inaccuracy, and propaganda. But they find the Outline all the more stimulating for that. If a little enthusiasm about the Founders will stimulate the school boy to further interest in the Founders, one very important point in education has been made. PLENTY OF TIME A long-haired man was asked for the time by a small boy, and replied: "Ten minutes to nine." The small boy replied: "Well, mister, at nine o'clock have your hair cut," and ran away. The man followed, and ran into a cop, who inquired why he was running. "See that boy? Well, he asked me for the time, and when I told him it was ten minutes to nine, he said, 'Have your hair cut at nine o'clock.'" The cop answered, "Well, what are you running for? You still have eight minutes."—Judge.
