DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS If anything occurs to hinder my work, anything goes contrary to my prayers and projects. He has ordained it so on purpose; because he knows that too much success would make me proud—too much ease would make me sexual; and He would teach me that the road to Heaven is not success, but labor and devotion. —Gold Dust. Wherever there is mob law there are conditions which are deplorable. The dollar mark is not the principal character in real success in life. Even his friends will be pleased to learn that President Harding has lost his grippe. It were better to have fewer miles of road construction and to have the highest quality as to durability. Europe should be echoing to the songs of peace among contented peoples, instead of reverberating to the tread of armed soldiery. The average person would pay taxes with better grace if he were sure that all the money would be expended wisely and without extravagance and wanton wastefulness. Wallace Reid is a martyr to a terrible illicit traffic that is endangering lives and shattering mental and physical health of great numbers of brilliant men and women in this country. Corruption of the electorate by bribery in this country should be outlawed so drastically and completely that this evil would be wholly estimated. PUT IMMIGRATION ON A REASONABLE BASIS Immigration laws, limiting the number of immigrants to be admitted into the United States, may be overhauled by Congress and be turned into permanency of form. The 2 per cent provision probably will be retained in the revised statute. Any changing of the immigration laws should contemplate excluding rigorously from this country any and all aliens who are anarchistic or disorderly. The element which despises American institutions and would overthrow—if they could—law and orderly government, should be kept out of the United States. They come here for no good to this country or to its people or institutions. They come nefariously to presume upon the generosity and hospitality of this Nation. Because of their unworthy motives and their menacing character they should be debarred from this country. But for the European immigrant—the law-abiding class—who come with good intent, pleased to become good American citizens, there should be welcome, the number admitted to be restricted to reasonable limits. METHODIST BRANCHES IN MERGER MOVE Unification of two great branches of Methodism in this country seems near. If the recommendations of a joint commission representing the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, are approved, those two great religious bodies will be merged under one consolidated general conference, but retaining two jurisdictional conferences. For seventy-nine years division in Methodism has existed. By bringing Wallace Reid is a martyr to a terrible illicit traffic that is endangering lives and shattering mental and physical health of great numbers of brilliant men and women in this country. Corruption of the electorate by bribery in this country should be outlawed so drastically and completely that this evil would be wholly extirpated. A corrupted ballot-box would be a standing peril to the Nation. Retrenchment in government, in state and Nation, should not be sporadic. It should be the permanent policy, and the people should demand permanency in the practice of business-like economy in managing all public affairs. The mob spirit should be curbed in this country. The mob is its own worst enemy. In the name of liberty and independence and justice it would break down the strongest and best defense of liberty and independence and justice—the law. Murder of an archetypal person and influences from abroad getting into the United States is so great that immigration laws should be made more stringent, so as to exclude absolutely all dangerous, disorder-inclining persons from foreign lands. If they must breed violence, let them do it in some other land than this. MERGER MOVE Unification of two great branches of Methodism in this country seems near. If the recommendations of a joint commission representing the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, are approved, these two great religious bodies will be merged under one consolidated general conference, but retaining two jurisdictional conferences. For seventy-nine years division in Methodism has existed. By bringing these two great bodies together again, the Methodist Episcopal Church will be strengthened and its usefulness augmented, as much duplication of effort, both in the home and foreign fields, will be eliminated. Harmony and co-operation in work of Christian denominations, and branches of denominations, has become noteworthy of recent years. This unity in spirit and effort is making wholesome impression upon the world. It indicates a broadening and deepening of religious zeal, and a far-sighted policy, among the great Christian organizations, to win the world ultimately to the banner of the meek and lowly Nazarene. Death of Wallace Reid, the film star, is a tragic object lesson in the terribleness of intemperance as to use of intoxicating liquors and opiates. He made a game fight to ward off the dreadful effects of drugs and liquor. But the fight went against him.

H. Grefe & Co 226 East Center St. Phone 14 EDITORIAL NEW YORK, Jan. 23.—It wasn’t very many years ago that it was a mark of unusual distinction for a woman to be either a physician or a lawyer. That day is definitely past, of course, but for a woman—and a young one—to be both is a notable achievement even now. In fact I never heard of a man who carried both professions on his one pair of shoulders. But here is Dr. Maryland Burna, just 25 years old, who lives down on Long Island, and is a practicing lawyer as well as doctor. She is health commissioner of her little town of Glen Cove, and is just now occupied in her other profession, in a course of vital interest to her. She is defending her father on a charge of permitting the audit of a fraudulent claim while commissioner of public works. In addition to these two fairly busy vacations, Dr. Burna is a skilled musician, just by way of having an avocation, as well. We of Gotham are finally beginning to realize that in spite of our glory we would have a hard time to get along all by ourselves, without any assistance from the surrounding country. The matter of food is, of course, the thing which has brought this home to us. Food will do it every time. When we fruit-hungry people down here in Manhattan, who never have learned to like the flavor or the price of Pacific coast apples as well as our own, hear about the carloads of them waiting up-state to be sent down to us, we grow impatient. And then we take an interest in what’s happening up in those rural counties. We noaned some a few COMMENTS OF THE PRESS INTEREST IN GENEALOGY (New York Evening Post) To the assertion of Dr. Otis G. Hammond at the American Historical Association meeting that the movies, jazz, and money making have crowded interest in history to the wall, Prof. Arthur Adams of Trinity College replied that one branch of history, genealogical study, flurishes as never before. To the truth of this statement every historical library would bear witness. Our New York Historical Society, which used really to devote itself to history and punished many volumes indispensable to general historical students, has laftly devoted itself to genealogy and published volumes which are little more than rosters of names, and which sell better than the early publications. All interest in genealogy is evidence of the increasing age of the country; for it is seldom before the fourth or fifth generation in America, and the accumulation of money and leisure, that men trouble about their ancestors. It has been stimulated by the growth of our patriotic societies—those of the Colonial wars, the Revolution, the War of 1912, and so on. It is not mere vanity that makes Jones eager to trace his line back to a Jones who fought with Philips, at Annapolis, or Washington at Monmouth; it is a just pride in identification with our history. Genealogy once was more than the mere handmaid of history; it was its progenitor. History began with the efforts of Greeks, Assyrians, and Jews to trace their origin to gods or kings and to prove that events were significant because their ancestors were present. If genealogy were confined nowadays to the watering PARAGRAPHS ('3y Robert Quillen) A good conversationist is one who listens while you talk about yourself. The difference between friendship and courtship is that friendship doesn’t lead to hardship. If war itself doesn’t make a people more vigorous, the job of paying for it will. That psychologist who says a kiss is just a contact of membranes has missed a lot of fun. The weather may keep you from church now, but eventually you’ll go in a closed car. When you reach the point where progress offends you, you might as well resign yourself to getting old. Old-fashioned youngsters spent the evening holding hands; the moderns spend it complaining about the hands they hold. That man who held up a restaurant cashier merely proves that diners as well as worms will turn. Another informal triangle consists in an insurance policy, a business reverse and a fire. No country is ready for self-government while the minority years to accent the “dent” in President. A brave woman is one who can leave a club meeting early and leave the others behind to talk about her clothes. A lot of plicus people who observe the Sabbath forget the other part of the command that refers to working six days. A hick town is a place where everybody refuses to have anything to do with a movement because old man Jones is chairman again. It’s all a gamble, even though the cave man used a club and the modern swain a diamond. An employer of labor works with his head; a laborer works with his hands; a laborer works with his mouth. After a woman reaches 30, her chief pleasure consists in remembering how many of her acquaintances are older. When the wife asks about political matters, your only hope is to be vague enough to convince her that she hasn’t wit enough to understand. Glory we would have a hard time to get along all by ourselves, without any assistance from the surrounding country. The matter of food is, of course, the thing which has brought this home to us. Food will do it every time. When we fruit-hungry people down here in Manhattan, who never have learned to like the flavor or the price of Pacific coast apples as well as our own, hear about the carloads of them waiting up-state to be sent down to us, we grow impatient. And then we take an interest in what’s happening up in those rural counties. We noaned some a few years ago, because we had to bear such a big proportion of the cost of up-state roads. Now we are crying, "Only keep your roads going, keep the snow off them, and the motors running along them, to bring us apples and eggs,and we'll pay our tax without a murmur." When I had to drink cream less coffee the other morning and he told the next day that it wasn’t the milk driver's fault—farm deliveries were blocked, it made a different citizen of me. I no longer wish to be separated from upstate. I want to push every project they have—when it touches my food. When one thinks of New York as existing at all back in the sixteen hundreds, one thinks of it as being an Indian camp or something of that informal sort. But it was a regular, officially run city, even then. It has just recovered one of its oldest record books, one covering deeds filed between 1687 and 1694. The book disappeared in 1904 and was recently found in Pottsville, Pa., where it had been offered for sale for $5,000. From chambermaid to prima donna is the way the story books would have it run. But sometimes things go quite contrary to the best-laid story book tales, and the instance of Miss Asta Mober is one such occasion. Miss Mober is a Swedish prima donna with a career in the Royal Opera House at Stockholm. Two months ago, she was "broke" in New York and took a place as chambermaid in one of our big hotels. Because of her pleasant voice," she has been promoted to the information desk at the telephone switchboard. "I love it, too," she declares. "I was tired and my nerves were trayed. Now I am well and happy, thanks to my work as chambermaid. Sing any more? Certainly. The housekeeper heard me humming and said she liked my voice, so I sang to the employees on Christmas day and had a grand time." Opportunity!
