DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR REBELLION IS CRUSHED READERS The Ear into which we poured our prayers is not deaf; the infinite Eye to which we turned is not blind, but looks in with answering mercy on us. James Martineau. Do your part, at all times and in all circumstances, to prevent fires. Public funds should be expended with extreme care and with sound business jugment. The world owes the government and the people of the United States about $18,000,000,000. Who should worry? One cannot serve acceptably the God of unselfishness and at the same time serve, the Mammon of selfishness. Give praise when and where it is due with as much alacrity as blame is given. Be not quick to condemn and slow to commend. California should be advertised steadily and systematically. This state needs judicious advertising just as badly as any merchandising business needs advertising. Saying it by radio has come to be commonplace. Use of radio has spread with penomenal swiftness. It is one of the amazing developments of this age of marvels. Should the presidential lightning strike Ohio again in 1924, it will have to strike—that's all. The Buckeye state will not put up lightning-rods to deflect any such bolt from the political sky. President Obregon has an effectual way of taking incipient rebellions in hand and crushing them may pronto. A vigorous policy of that kind keeps Mexico pacific save for "Up and at 'em!" is the spirit President Obregon has instilled into the loyal federal soldiery of Mexico in dealing with revolutionists. The revolt at Juarez was met with extreme vigor. Seemingly, there is to be no general uprising along the border, and no recurrence of the reigns of terror which prevailed there for years before General Obregon came to the presidency of Mexico. It is shameful that rebellious uprisings in Mexico are fostered from the American side of the border and arms and munitions are smuggled across the boundary line from the United States to aid and abet these bloody outbreaks. This practice should be suppressed. Mexican plotters who come to the United States to incubate their conspiracies should be sent back across the border. Americans who join in conspiracies against peace and order in Mexico should be compelled to desist. PEACE MAY PREVAIL IN NEAR EAST Just when war between Great Britain and the Turkish Nationalists seemed inevitable, an opening was made (thanks to the effective persuasions of the French diplomatic representative meeting with the Turkish Nationalist leader), which promises a way out of the crisis without resort to war. The situation, however is very tense and is fraught with dreadful possibilities. The statesmanship of Europe should handle this Turkish problem fearlessly and with the utmost honesty and candor. The great powers should be a unit in striving to reach a permanent settlement as to Turkey's status—a settlement of such a nature as would preclude the recurrence of threatening crises at frequent intervals. Unless the problem is approached with frankness and fairness, it will continue to plague Europe and to menace the peace of the world.

Who re dusty, open bin used t' eat 15 ce peaches while we cent can o' sardini Should the presidential lightning strike Ohio again in 1924, it will have to strike—that's all. The Buckeye state will not put up lightning-rods to deflect any such bolt from the political sky. President Obregon has an effectual way of taking incipient rebellions in hand and crushing them muy pronto. A vigorous policy of that kind keeps Mexico pacified save for occasional sporadic outbreaks. It seems to be the decree of Fate that Great Britain should take the lead in administering a thrashing to the Turks. There will be no tranquility in southeastern Europe, it seems, until Turkey has been subdued. No special pleading in defense of the name and fame of Abraham Lincoln is needed at any time. But any slighting remark about him, or any obloquy cast upon him, quickly is resented by loyal Americans everywhere. Great Britain never delivers an ultimatum frivolously. When Britain demands that the Turks withdraw from the neutral zone along the straits to Constantinople, she is imperatively in earnest. All the power and resources of the British Empire are lost of that demand.

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—The Rainy Daisies are to the fore again. A good many years ago—a quarter of a century to be exact—this group of New York women started agitating for short skirts for the street. They were quite revolutionary in their stand; they insisted that stormy weather demanded skirts a good four inches from the floor; and they were credited with the "rainy day skirt" which came into vogue to supplement the trained "best" tailored suit. They have rather faded out of sight in the past five years. There seemed to be no great demand for their activity. But now, the need has dawned again. So at their meeting place at 3100 Broadway, they passed a resolution the other day appealing to all women to "firmly resist the mandates of misguided designers and dressmakers, and to insist that their clothes, including panels and other draperies, be not nearer the ground than seven inches, and that they be cut in such a way and with sufficient material to permit perfect freedom of the limbs." Women may become engrossed in every business, professional and political problem in the world. But they don't throw aside in their interest in feminine fripperies just because of that—think goodness! The Business and Professional Women's Exposition held last week was undoubtedly the most impressive exhibition of women's achievements in the business world that we have ever seen. There were women brokers, motion picture producers, educators, publishers, manufacturers, and women. PARAGRAPHS By Robert Quillen Very green: no tip. Rather green: horn is just a way of passing the buck. Large tip. Sophisticated: small tip. Isn't it about time for the first annual prediction of a cranberry shortage? The rest cure would be a fine thing for the world, if it could begin with tongues. Hint to Clemenceau: Don't scold us. We're lots easier to handle if you brag on us. Praising a spendthrift or being liberal is like praising a duck for liking water. You know, without making inquiry, that the gentleman in the gray striped vest thinks he understands women. Unrequited love doesn't cause woman half as much suffering as unsatisfied curiosity. Frequently it happens that home is a place where some woman works for her board and clothes. Perhaps it would be well to remind Mr. Lloyd George that a concession in time saves nine. Let's not have another war. Some of the memoirs engendered by the last one are not yet off, the press. The Turk threatens India. Let's start the propaganda machines and make the world safe for Christians. Now that we have the Ladles of the Invisible Eye, let's organize a Kiddies' Klub for Correcting Kompanions. TOWN IN REVIEW May we call the Dardenelles desperate straits? Thanks. A relief party for the relief party for Stefansson may start out soon. EXPERT First he dubbed his tee shot; His mashle was a shame; But still he knew the rudiments— He cussed a beautiful game! News of the kaiser's marriage sounds like all boche to Lil' Gee Gee. The returned nickel cigar reports it has seen nothing of the absent nickel thread. John Reyder, New York policeman shot a robber, John is a new cop, reports Tom Sims, and so knew no better. GATS Pistol toting is the curse of America, says Chief Magistrate McAdoo of New York City. "There are more persons who carry pistols in New York and Chicago than in the whole of Europe." McAdoo declares that the police's greatest problem is the free sale and use of firearms. Then why not stop the sale, make it a penitentiary offense to possess or carry a revolver? If the penalty were stiff enough, and enforced, it would counteract the householder's disadvantage in not having a pistol for protection. Then too, the home could keep a rifle or shotgun, weapons which crooks cannot carry concealed. BOY, AH'LL SAY SHE DO! From an Imperial Valley advertisement: Dates will keep your son in college AND DON'T MENTION IT Delapidated Dodgework: "Pardon me, sir, but have you seen a policeman around here?" Polite pedestrian: "No, I am sorry." Delapidated Dodgework: "Thank you. Now, will you kindly hand over your watch and purse?" You hear about the courage of convictions, but bootleggers have the courage of their acquittals, says Josh Wise. The man who blazes away seldom blazes the way. Women may become engrossed in every business, professional and political problem in the world. But they don't throw aside in their interest in feminine flippers just because of that—think goodness! The Business and Professional Women's Exposition held last week was undoubtedly the most impressive exhibition of women's achievements in the business world that we have ever seen. There were women brokers, motion picture producers, educators, publishers, manufacturers, and women leaders in various other lines of work; and they were keen, efficient, women. But on one main aisle was an exhibit or new fall hats—awfully fetching ones, they were—which was one of the most popular places in the hall; while on another aisle stood the Nestle hair-raising booth, surrounded three deep by visitors who were supposed to be concerned with the principles of government as outlined by a group just beyond there; but instead, were heart-wolly concerned with learning how to get a permanent wave "exactly like yours" (That to the young woman showing them how simply the home-waving outfit worked.) Then at the stroke of 10, they swarmed to the end of the big room where the fashion parade was about to pass. Oh!, we are human yet, and feminine, and our new responsibilities are not at all shaking our obligation to the old one—of making ourselves as attractive as possible. And that's just as well. "Loyalties," by John Galsworthy, which has just opened at the Galey Theatre, is called by some of the critics the best play yet presented our sorts of loyalties—to one's countryside, one's cast, one's clubs, and other groups of social and political life, which Mr. Galsworthy seems to consider a bit as artificial enclosures. He has told it with a remarkable faithfulness to reality—real people, real words which they would use, and real reactions to the problems which thrust themselves upon them. The company is an English one, and it is produced by Charles Dillingham. Penitence that leads to suicide would be thought of as exclusively human. But it isn't. Binks, the pet monkey belonging to Naughton Lane of Staten Island, had always been well behaved and affectionate, but suddenly he went loco and bit a man. Then in shame over his misdeed, he broke away and raced down Midland Beach pier and committed suicide by drowning. NATURAL HISTORY NOTE The Turks are great fighters, every one of them having two or three wives. Perhaps it would be well to remind Mr. Lloyd George that a concession in time saves nine. Let's not have another war. Some of the memoirs engendered by the last one are not yet off, the press. The Turk threatens India.

One disadvantage of short skirts is that a girl can no longer shine the toe of one shoe against the calf on the other side. Sport is a fine thing. Think of the exercise one gets while changing into the various outfits of sports clothes. Now that daughter is away at college, there is danger that mother will get out of practice as a lady's maid. You can get a more encouraging test of mileage if you count the gallons you get and not the ones you pay for. Correct this sentence: "Let your pup come into the house, Willie," said the mother; "it looks so cozy among the pillow." In the matter of the bonus the senate will discover that it isn't better to have bluffed and lost than never to have bluffed at all. Polite pedestrian: "No, I am sorry."
