LET FRANCE APPLY HER DRINK BILL TO THE PAYMENT OF HER AMERICAN DEBT Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals, Methodist Episcopal Church, 100 Maryland Ave., N.E., Washington D.C. Discussion of the French debt to the United States, too long delayed, makes pertinent the observation that France could discharge her debt to the United States in a few years by adopting a policy of prohibition and saving the thirteen and one-half billion francs she spends each year for intoxicating liquor. The United States is certainly not justified in taxing its people to pay the obligations of Europeans who are wasting such vast sums upon a vicious trade. Few people comprehend the enormity of the drink waste. In many countries it is not an incidental of life, but a major expenditure, overtopping all other wastes as the Matterhorn overtops the knoll in the pasture. The seven countries of Switzerland, Holland, Great Britain, Belgium, Germany and Austria spend approximately each year $4,180,900,000 on alcoholic liquors. It does not require economic experience to comprehend that the addition of this sum to the channels of legitimate trade in these seven countries would bring the solution of economic problems within a few years, just as prohibition has proven such a marvelous problem-solvent in America. No wonder Sir George Palish, one of the leading economists of England, said: "Prohibition is an economic question. There are two reasons for this: First, we must admit the working classes will command, from now on, a greater share of the world's goods than they have been getting before. Secondly, the difficulty of securing capital from the classes that formerly supplied capital will be exceedingly difficult because of taxes and fear of the future. Therefore, unless the working people make savings and provide capital, world business will be at a standstill. In England today they spend from 400,000,000 pounds to 500,000,000 pounds on drink. If half that amount was saved in England and elsewhere among the nations, the problems of the world would be solved. As an economist I consider prohibition is necessary and inevitable."

"Strong as an ox"—and the ox eats hay. There's lots of "pep" in the peep o' day. Better hungry at eighty than indigestion at forty. Don't molest a mole—it may become a cancer. Two cooks with but a single thought; two eggs that beat as one. For downright healthfulness, no one has improved upon the old fashioned fireplace. We should have individual hair brushes for the same reason that we have individual tooth brushes. HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" CHILDREN'S DIET (Continued) MENU for children from about two to three years: At six and nine a.m., take six or eight ounces of raw cow's milk, preceded by two or three teaspoonfuls of orange juice.

(End of Children's Diet Series.) WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1925 DEEMS THAT LIVE DOVER BEACH The sea is calm tonight. The tide is full, the moon lies fair upon the straits;—on the French coast the light Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand, limmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay, Come to the window; sweet is the night air! Only, from the long line of spray Where the sea meets the moon-blanched sand, Listen! you hear the grating roar Of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling, At their return, up the high trand, Begin, and coase, and then again begin. With tremulous cadence slow, and bring The eternal note of sadness in. OPHOCLES LONG AGO Heard it on the Aegean, and it brought into his mind the turbid ebb and flow Of human misery; we find also in the sound a thought, Hearing it by this distant northern sea. The sea of faith Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore May like the folds of a bright girdle furled; But now I only hear its melancholy, long withdrawing roar, Retreating, to the breath of the night-wind down the vast edges drear And naked shingles of the world. Ah, love, let us be true To one another! for the world, which seems To lie before us like a land of dreams. So various, so beautiful, so new faith really no joy, nor love, nor light, COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying CALIFORNIA HIGH IN BANK CLEARINGS—Stockton Independent Do Californians realize the tremendous business stress recently attained by this state? asks the California Development Association. Answering its own question, the association says: "Using the bank clearings of the nation as a gauge it is apparent that California is now easily the fifth busiest state on the Union, commercially and industrially. In fact, she is closely pressing Massachusetts for fourth place. "California's total clearings per day, week and month, are exceeded only by the four great states of New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Massachusetts in the order named. Back of her trail forty-three other forward looking commonwealths, including such industrially active states as Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, Indiana and Iowa. "Compilations for November prepared by the California Development Association show that in that month five cities of this state had aggregate bank clearings of $1,390,000,000. Leaving New York out of the reckoning only three other states exceeded this record in the last national returns available." MORE SHAVIAN SHAVINGS No man is a match for a woman, except with a poker and a pair of hobnailled boots.Not always even then. Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it. Do not love your neighbor as yourself. If you are on good terms with yourself it is an impertinence; if on bad, an injury. Democracy cannot rise above the level of the human material of which its voters are made. The worst sin towards our fellow-creatures is not to mute them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of humanity. People are seduced by romance because they are ignorant of reality. Beware of the man whose god is in the skies. If we are better than our fathers, and our fathers were better than our grandfathers, and so on back to the days of Plato, how is it that the world now is neither better nor worse than Plato described it? Every genuinely religious person is a heretic, and therefore a revolutionist. Most of the fashionable pleasures are too miserable to bear thinking about.That is why intellect is so unpopular. He who can does; he who cannot, teaches. It is useless to declare that all men are born free if you deny that they are born good. Guarantee a man's goodness, and his liberty will take care of itself.

To forgive the unrepentant is like making pictures on the water. Whoever can see three days ahead will be rich three thousand years. It's easier to rule a kingdom that regulate a family. A sorrow is an itching place that is made worse by scratching. Unpolished pearls never shine. The best crops are always on the fields of others. The reputation of a thousand years can be determined by the conduct of one hour. Though tears fall they do not help to pay the debt. To the ant a few drops of rain is a flood. Even the heart has its boundaries. Try Fontana's Spaghetti. It is made by the exclusive Fontana process, —full of flavor and nutrition and free from unpleasant starchiness.

FONTANA'S SPAGHETTI On the Nation's Business ASLEET storm snaps wires in New England; a blizzard fells a line of poles in the Western ranges; a flood overwhelms a valley community; a prairie cyclone sweeps away everything in its path;—wherever the emergency, men and materials are rushed to the spot in order that telephone service, vitally important at such a time, may be restored. And the mending of every break restores telephone users everywhere in America, a particular path for the passage of his voice. Whether sudden calamity comes from an Atlantic gale or a Texas "twister," its damage must be repaired at once, because it cripples some part of a communications system that is nation-wide. Because America has universal service, the telephone truck speeding to a scene of disaster is truly "on the nation's business," and the implements of its workers are weapons wielded in the nation's cause.
