(Continued from page 2)
in the lordly elm by my window.
Warm waves at intervals from
the gas furnace overshadow the
chill of early autumn. Light from
electric bulbs dispells the gloom.
I pick up a volume and turn the
pages. Among the ghosts of the
past stand four white-haired old
men, old men who held in their
hands the destiny of civilization.
President Wilson, Clemenceau.
Orlando, Lloyd George. Mr. Wil
son proposed to hand to the peo
ple of earth a League of Nations
that would guarantee “a perma
nent peace based on unselfish,
unbiased justice.” The French,
the Italian, the English branches
of the Big Four looked upon this
proposal as a benevolent dream.
Europe knew only the mailed
fist. Mr. Wilson’s ‘ “benevolent
dream” evaporated into thin air
and he died a broken, disillusion
ed old man. Again we ride high
on another benevolent dream un
der the flag of United Nations,
while the mailed fist is the court
of last resort.

By the time they have reach
ed 40 in bachelorhood they
should be heart whole and fan
cy free. The dispatches report
ed the other day that one of
that age of culture and promi
nence took his life rather than
endure the pangs of unrequited
love.

Once it was thought smart to
sock the rich. The Fair Deal is do
ing an admirable job of socking
it to the babies. A nickel’s worth
now costs 19 cents, a raise of 3
cents just today, one instance of
what is happening to the house
hold budget in cities as an out
growth of “price supports” con
trived down at Washington.

A full page ad in one of those
gaudy magazines claims their
particular make of fags is the
choice of most doctors. A stoop
ed, horse - faced and flabby old
man asked a young fellow the
other day if he smoked. The an
swer was “No.” With a fag hang
ing in his face the old man said,
“Boy, don’t you ever start.”

If kids were required to put
the effort into productive labor
they do into chasing one anoth
er with a football there would
be a roar of protest and prob
ably some adult led by the col
lar into court to face a judicial
decree imposing penalties for
enforcing child labor. Bruised
shins, caved-in ribs and the like
seem to be preferred to blister
ed hands acquired earning

A device in use in postoffices
to cancel stamps reads, “Hire the
handicapped.” Are they being
taken on in the postal service?
