A St Louis woman recently fined

Two learned gentlemen held a de
bate the other night on the question
of abolishing war. The decision was
that there can be no decision on
that question, and we could have
whitten it before the debate ever
started.
Should war be abolished? Certain
ly, just as long as it can. But the
habits of Mars are such that there
never can be any decision on elim
inating the old fellow while we're
human.
Benjamin Franklin thought that
war should be abolished. Philosophi
cally the Philadelphia printer was a
genuine pacifiist, hating war with all
the feelingMhat Quakers hold against
it. But Franklin saw the time come
when his philosophy had to be put
aside for another phase of life a lit
tle more important, the principle of
tolerant existence.
Benjamin Franklin was a philoso
phical pacifist, but he signed the
document that was in effect a declar
ation of war against Great Britain.
Inclined to the ways of peace and
love though he was, he went to
I France and won her help in that
Revolutionary struggle. - He came

War should be abolished, certain

BECK, VARE AND CONSTITUTION
Meet Mr. James M. Beck. Is this
the Mr. Beck we have heard so much
about, the authority on constitution
al law, the author of "The Vanishing
Rights of the States, the former Solicitor-General
of the United States,
the distinguished Washington law
yer, long a resident of the national
capital where he lives in a fine house
as befits one of his possessions, at
tainments and high station?
Yes, yes. But shake hands now
with Mr. James M. Beck of 1414
Spruce street, Philadelphia. It is an
humble flat, this Spruce street abode,
I situated on the edge of the business
I area, in the roar, confusion and
I squalor of a tenement sector The
! domicile is found within the First
i Pennsylvania Congressional District.
J That is William S. Vare's old district
j which last month elected Mr. James
! M Beck to represent it in Congress.
J ) Yes, the Washington James M.
Back and the Spruce street, Phila
delphia. James M. Beck are the one
and the same James M. Beck. Con
gress is curious. It has ordered an
inquiry into his eligibility. 'Is the
Philadelphia residence genuine or is
it a bit of Pennsylvania political
strategy? Is Mr. Beck a bona fide
Representative in Congress or is he
there as guide, philosopher and legal
adviser of Mr. Vare, who certainly
needs a lot of guidance, philsoophy
and legal advice to squirm into the
Senate. ,
The organic law is, of course, ex
plicit on this point that no person
shall serve in the House of Represen
tatives who is not an inhibitant of
the State from which he is elected
Thr.t is the Constitution. But. as
was asked long ago, "what's the Con
stitution between friends?" The
country knows Vare's answer and.
apparently, Beck's answer. The coun
try will be interested in the answer
of Congress to that question. St

Safer, because your motor has a
great reserve power for a sudden

an accident, enables you to pas3 an

More economical, because this com

One of the sayings that have be
come quite popular of late is to the
effect that the flapper, though fair to
look upon, is really quite dumb. The
modern youth of -the feminine var
iety has come to be regarded as
person who probably has to go
through "that foolish stage where
her mind turns to wild garments, a
rouged face, lipsticked mouth and all
that. -
Sometimes this is true, sometimes
not. An Arkansas City flapper of the
high school type showed the ether
day that even a girl who uses rouge
and lipstick can think quickly and
act in a crisis.
A six-year-old boy fell into a lake
near the town. The flapper was the
only witness. She saw some men at
a distance and shouted to them, but
they did not hear. Stripping off her
coat, she plunged in and managed
to bring the boy to shore.
Now, what to do with an uncon
scious boy, whose lungs are filled
with water? The girl knew. With
out help from anyone, she applied
