Mistakes of judgment! when no light I see. Yet in my blindness fain would do my best; When to life's problem I can find no key, And grope in darkness, with a weight oppressed. —Susan M. Day. If would be easy to keep the world at peace if all nations really wanted peace. Classism is antagonistic to Americanism. These two 'isms are not in the same class. Regard the political party to which you adhere as your servant, not as your master. Prepare to vote in the August primaries. Nominating of public officials is as important, in its way, as electing them to office. That Woodrow Wilson may be restored to health and have many long years yet of usefulness and enjoyment, is the hope and prayer of millions in this country and in other lands. Great Britain gives assurance that it will pay every dollar it owes the United States, principal and interest. This is the spirit in a nation that inspires confidence in its integrity. America welcomes every sign of peacefulness on the part of Japan. The present ministry in Tokyo seems disposed to cultivate friendly relations with all parts of the world. This is particularly pleasing to the United States. KLONDIKE PIONEERS IN SEATTLE CARNIVAL The "Days of '97" were re-lived in Seattle, where a big carnival was held in celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of receipt of news of the great discovery in the Klondike which thrilled the world and sent multitudes of adventurous spirits to Alaska and the Yukon region to prospect for gold. There was a parade of pioneer prospectors of the far Northwest. A long line of them marched Seattle's streets carrying the old-time packs on their backs, with gold-pans rattling about them and a stubby growth of whiskers, to make their appearance realistic. There is that in adventure in quest of fortune which appeals to the imaginations and the souls of men. It has been so from the earliest ages —from the days when Jason's Argonauts sailed forth in search for the Golden Fleece—aye, from the dim dawn of history and tradition and myth. It has remained for this Pacific West and Northwest to develop the most spectacular and dramatic discoveries of golden treasures in modern times—the California gold discovery of '49, and the Klondike discovery of '97. From these discoveries has come development of mineral and other resources in fabulous volume, and growth of the Pacific West in a measure that has astonished the world.

Great Britain gives assurance that it will pay every dollar it owes the United States, principal and interest. This is the spirit in a nation that inspires confidence in its integrity. America welcomes every sign of peacefulness on the part of Japan. The present ministry in Tokyo seems disposed to cultivate friendly relations with all parts of the world. This is particularly pleasing to the United States. The old-fashioned, traditional alliance of nations is mischevious, in nearly every case. Far better if nations steered clear of political alliances altogether and contented themselves with international agreements to maintain just peace, such as were formulated by the Arms Conference. Laws and ordinances against speeding should be enforced to the letter. This should be done in justice to careful, conscientious drivers, as well as in fairness to pedestrians. The streets and highways of the country should be safe for every careful driver and every careful pedestrian. Reckless driving makes thoroughfares perilous for all, no matter how careful they may be. Good citizenship implies and imposes responsibility. One cannot snugly sit back and be indolent; and indifferent toward civic problems and yet exemplify good citizenship. It can't be done that way. Good Citizenship requires positive, alert, intelligent, patriotic action where important public issues are involved. The citizen who habitually neglects these things is open to the charge of being a civil "slacker." PATH TO RECOGNITION IS MADE SMOOTHER The way to formal official recognition of the government of Mexico seems to be clearing. The conference of Senator De La Huerta, Mexico's Minister of Finance, at the White House with President Harding, is significant. While the distinguished Mexican went to the conference as a private citizen, and not in his official capacity, yet the meeting has deeper meaning than would attach to a mere call of courtesy. The obstacles that have stood in the path of recognition are being solved one by one. If seriously authentic reports from Washington are to be credited, the resumption of full diplomatic relations between the two governments should be near. It is to be hoped that this may eventually soon. The anomalous condition of these two countries, neighbors and friends, going along for years without formal diplomatic relations, is not an inspiring spectacle. It is not becoming to this western world. Mexico should give the guarantees which are requisite to the full restoration of official relations with the government at Washington. And as soon as such guarantees are given—as soon as the reasonable requirements are met—recognition will be forthcoming. Honesty often times shoots the rapids of adversity in safety, whereas dishonesty is dashed to pieces on the rocks. There is nothing like honesty and good credit in time of reveries.

They are much too apt to yip in concert, and their barks don't always harmonize, and — well, altogether, seventeen are too many. So the neighbors of Mrs. Pauline Banreuther, 345 Prospect avenue, complained, and the judge upheld their point of view. There was no malice in their complaint—just nerves. Mrs. Meta Hetzel, for instance, who lives in the next apartment, explained that she herself had a dog and loved them in small quantities. "But what shall I" Comment of Press CAMPAIGN EXPENSES Philadelphia Public Ledger. The Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections has authorized the appointment of a sub-citizen to consider means of limiting campaign expenses. If the sub-committee reports truthfully, it merely will say, "It can't be done, unless in some fashion that will bring worse evils with it." For years congress and other lawmaking bodies have been tinkering with the question of campaign expenditures with the result today that the evil is gigantic compared with what it was when Perry Belmont started the agitation with the comparatively mild proposal that the books should be made public. Limitations have been set on the amount that may be spent, but these limitations have been disregarded, for the reason that the maximum allowed wouldn't carry a campaign along for a week. It would be possible to pass a law by which nobody should spend a cent in any primary or other election. If such a law were passed, however, it would strangle young men seeking to make public life a career and lower incredibly the standard of officeholders. The machine would remain supreme everywhere, for it takes many to arouse the people against bossism and crookedness. They do not learn what is being done to them except by the printed and spoken word. To hire a hall or get out a pamphlet costs money, and the aggregate is very large. In the case of an unknown man trying to introduce himself it is enormous, and the great mass of the people are not acquainted with more than a few of the able men who are available for high office. It puts the man whose name is a household word at such an advantage over his perhaps abler competitor that he can get along without spending anything worth mentioning, while the other has to overcome the inequality by forming a syndicate. The law providing for publicity of campaign funds has done some good, but it, too, has been distorted for demagogic purposes so as to make legitimate expenses appear illegitimate, and has been used to misinform the public, sometimes in a way TOM SIMS SAYS: Women are vain, but every barr's mirror sees some queer things.

Here is just so much in life, and can't get a bit more out of it. NEW YORK, July 19.—Seventeen dogs are too many for apartment house neighbors to find soothing. They are much too apt to yip in concert, and their barks don't always harmonize, and — well, altogether, seventeen are too many. So the neighbors of Mrs. Pauline Banreuther, 345 Prospect avenue, complained, and the judge upheld their point of view. There was no malice in their complaint—just nerves. Mrs. Meta Hetzel, for instance, who lives in the next apartment, explained that she herself had a dog and loved them in small quantities. "But what shall I do with them?" wept Mrs. Danreuther. "Give some of them away," ordered Judge Eilperin. "To whom?" he asked. Instantly there was a rush forward of courtroom visitors. One policeman, three reporters, a court attendant, and interested onlookers answered the query. Within three minutes nine of the dogs were given into friendly arms and Mrs. Danreuther and her neighbors departed in peace and satisfaction. People get pretty big damages sometimes for the loss of an eye or a limb. But never before, so far as I know, has anyone's imagination and self-appreciation risen to the height of asking $10,000 for the loss of a tooth. Seymour P. Danzig filed an action the other day for just that amount against a dentist who pulled a perfectly good tooth by mistake. Mr. Danzig doesn't explain any particular sentimental attestment he had for that special tooth which would lead to its high valuation. So far as the complaint goes, that is the regular rated price of each one of his 32 teeth—if 32 is the correct number. Is it possible after all that every-one of us cannot with a mere turn of the wrist become a successful scenario writer? That IS a shock. But that is the truth one would gather from recent revelations of motion picture powers and district attorneys. Thousands of shop girls, elevator boys, hod-carriers, steel workers and long-shoremen ambitions to shine as scenario writers, have made their contributions to the so-called "scenario schools," which have held out to them glowing prospects of "fortunes to be made in writing for the movies." Various authorities started investigations of these rainbows and as the result, many of the "schools" are having hard times with district attorneys. The chief trouble seems to have been that these schools made no restrictions in their applicants and possession of the initial price was the only requirement for enrollment. One school—the Palmer Photoplay Corporation—has avoided the pitfalls of many of the schools by means of a questionnaire so difficult that less than twelve of every hundred applicants pass it and are allowed to take the course. By establishing this strict standard, the Palmer people have Watch and jewelry repair, Witman's. Time for MODERN CRANCASE CLEANING SERVICE.

These records, steadily increasing in number and in mileage, justify the Firestone contention that there is one best to build tires. Among the primary sources of Firestone extra mileage is single gum-dipping—the saturation of the cord plies in a vat liquid gum—thus coating each cord and virtually eliminating internal heat and friction. Another is Firestone air bag curing, with its 200 pound sure, which places every cord accurately and equalizes the tension. By blending the rubbers of different plantations and types, by tempering it before mixing, Firestone men add still more mileage. Many cord tires are good—a few are better—Firestone users one is best. Those who have already experienced Firestone mileage, have shopped shopping and experimenting—they have made these standard equipment. Investigate your friends' successes in Firestone Cords—and buy your next tire accordingly. In and get your share of extra mileage.
