Listen, my soul, to the glad refrain; And, spite old sorrow and older sinning, And puzzles forecasted and possible pain, Take heart with the day, and begin again! —Susan Coolidge. ACCIDENTS TAKE HUGE TOTAL OF LIVES The great problem of today—the paramount question—is not political by any means. Important as are some of the issues of politics, none of them compares with the outstanding problem of danger to life from accidents. During the year 1923, the appalling total of 84,000 lives were lost in accidents in the continental United States. This was an increase of 7500 over the preceding year. The number killed each year in the United States, by accident, equals the total population of a city as large as Evansville, Ind., or Savannah, Ga. Two hundred persons per day was the average death rate last year! America's death rate from accidents is twice as high as Britain's. The worst of it is, many of these fatal accidents are preventable. Herein lies the live problem—how to prevent accidental death. Traffic, of course, reaps the greatest harvest of tragedies. To the problems of traffic, therefore, the most earnest attention must be given, to find solutions that really solve—to devise preventative measures and methods that really prevent wholesale slaughtering of men, women and children on streets and highways. The happiest persons in all the earth are those who unselfishly are doing good to others. AERIAL DEFENSE PLANS TO BE EVOLVED To the problems of traffic, therefore, the most careless attention must be given, to find solutions that really solve—to devise preventative measures and methods that really prevent wholesale slaughtering of men, women and children on streets and highways. The happiest persons in all the earth are those who unselfishly are doing good to others. AERIAL DEFENSE PLANS TO BE EVOLVED National air defense is to be given very serious, constructive attention. President Coolidge has decided upon this. Secretary of the Navy Wilbur is co-operating with him. A commission of the Navy Department is to be named to recommend the relative place that air defense should have in future naval budgets. This course is in line with the policy of great foreign powers. Great Britain, France and Japan are developing great aerial establishments. It is seen that airships can be used to advantage in peace, and then be ready for service in war. This country, of course, cannot take the risk of being unprepared as to air defenses. The airship will play very important part in future wars. It will be a big factor in operations both by land and sea. The United States must be prepared amply in this branch of its defenses. The first general rain in California should be followed by thanksgiving to God from all parts of the state. They call the Washington baseball team the "Senators." And yet that team is expected to make speed! Careless driving should be punished severely. The driver who is willfully reckless should be deprived of license to drive. Live and work by system. Far more can be accomplished by systematic effort than by desultory, haphazard effort. Are You Proud to Remove Your Coat?

Corsets for men may solve the problem. The poor things must have some way to get tight. School teachers are people who look after the children while mother attends the movies.

ABE MARTIN WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS MISS ANNE MORGAN Officer of the Legion of Honor is the decoration conferred on Miss Anne Morgan in appreciation of her work as first vice-president of the American committee for devoted France. The committee recently concluded its work by handing over the Chateau Bierancourt, which was assigned to it as headquarters by General Pertain, in 1917, to the people of Bierancourt. Miss Morgan was one of eight American women who "organized their office in a shell hole and began their work." She has spent most of her time abroad since. Anne Tracy Morgan is the daughter of the late J. Pierpont Morgan, and sister of the present head of J. P. Morgan & Co. She was born in 1873, and educated in private schools. Her life has been given almost wholly to charitable and reform work. She is an active factor in the National Civic Federation. Her home is in New York City. Try a Classified Ad for results.

Time, like the winged wind When it bends the flowers, Hath left no mark behind, To count the hours.

With tongues all sweet and low, Like a pleasant rhyme, They tell how much I owe to thee and Time! —Bryan Waller Procter.

It reports that in one year of operation more than 6000 cases have been settled out of court, by arbitration boards located in various "key cities" around the country, and in only two cases were the parties in dispute dissatisfied with the verdict. Thus a million or two dollars was saved in legal fees and costs, along with much time and peace of mind. The system seems worth studying by other industries troubled by frequent disputes over contracts and service. The machinery is simple. The disputes handled are between distributors, who circulate the films, and theatre owners, who exhibit them. In every section represented by a "key city" there is an arbitration board of six persons, three representing each side, with power to choose a seventh if they disagree. This board calls the complainant and defendant in turn, hears their testimony, seeks all the essential information in an informal direct way, and renders its decision immediately. The members of the board, knowing the business themselves, are better fitted to do this than a judge and jury would be. The method is being adopted more by American business men as the best way to settle business differences. It is at the same time a reaction against the technicalities and delays of the courts, and an expression of business efficiency along a new line. It is a method doubtless destined to much wider application in the future, not only in business controversies, but in disputes of all kinds between citizens, and between nations. It is largely the substitution of common sense for a foolish desire to fight. FROM THE BOOK FIRE BY CLARK STRAY THOUGHTS Suppose you are poor, is it right for you to seem to be well off? Have people an honest right to keep up appearances? Are you justified in starving your dinner table in order to keep an automobile; to such such an expensive house that you can't by any possibility help a poor relation; to array your daughters in costly milliners' wares because they live with girls whose parents are twice as rich? An answer is given by Thackeray (in Philip): "Sometimes it is hard to say where honest pride ends and hypocrisy begins. To obtrude your poverty is mean and slavish; it is as odious for a beggar to ask compassion by showing his sorrows. But to simulate prosperity—to be wealthy and lavish thrice a year when you ask your friends, and for the rest of the time to munch a crust and sit by one candle—the folks who practice this deceit worthy of applause or whipping? Sometimes it is noble pride, sometimes shabby swindling. In Peter Whiffle, that delightful novel, Carl Van Vechten pauses to observe: "I have travelled across Switzerland many times and I hope to whether trade unionist or non-trade unionist, and will strengthen it still further when in the course of years the new voters learn how to make full use of this yet unfamiliar tool. The status of women has up to the present time been one of the most unsatisfactory elements in the labor question. Into one trade after another have women been pitchforked. Training was the last thing they were expected to need. "The submissive qualities which long centuries of economic dependence have engrained into woman's being were a fatal heritage to her when she entered modern industry as a weage-earner. It meant that girls gave into exaction after exaction; they became without intending it, the underbidders of men; they have been used to break strikes, and to lower the standards of life, both for themselves and for entire trades. "But women are being caught up by the movement for education and numerous are the requests they make for information as to their rights and responsibilities. Nor do all of these requests come from women. Men, too, in great number are realizing that these co-workers of theirs are here to stay. Being here to stay is desirable they should be partners in industry upon an honorable and self-respecting footing." It was 11 p.m. The lights were low. "Let me kiss those tears away, sweetheart," he begged tenderly. She fell into his arms and he was very busy for a few minutes. But the tears flowed on. "Can nothing stop them?" he asked breathlessly. No," she murmured, "it's hay fever, but go on with the treatment." A Class Ad is best little salesman.

God keep me from lingering in the mountains or by the shores of the sea. Such immensities of nature strangle talent and even dwarf genius. "No great creative work has ever been composed by the sea or in the shadow of a mountain. In the presence of the perpetual mysteries of nature, man feels his smallness. "There are those who may say that the sky scrapers of the city evoke a similar feeling, but man's relation to these it not the same; he knows that man built these monster structures and that man will tear them down again. Mountains and the sea are eternal." Does this explain why so much that passes for art in America comes from Indiana and Illinois, the flat, unimposing, monotonous Middle West?
