Long Life or Busy One?
Discussion is rife at to why man doc not
l:e at least a century, or perhaps longer. Health
tules arc laid down, regimen scheduled, and
formulas prepared, each presuming to guarantee
longevity, tut none of tliem takes note of other
than the mere physical nature of man. His real
.life is not considered. Metchuikof was attracted
by a group of men he discovered in a mountain
iastness in eastern Russia. They readily at
tained what is looked upon as ripe old age, most
of them centenarians. Inquiry developed that
termented mares milk was the chief of their diet,
and the "bacillus Bulgariis" was introduced to
the world. It did not, however, bring with it
the surcease from decay to w hich civilized man
is subject.
Now students are well advised that some
thing else is involved. The old men who came
to such length of years led lives as placid as that
;of a kindly cow. The activity of the world
'touched them not; its turmoil and disturbances
r.ever penetrated their quiet retreat, and so they
went on, one day after another, existence a suc
cession of rising, partaking of fermented marc's
r milk at intervals, and retiring. If one can think
of anything drearier, or less to be desired, than
a century of life passed under such conditions,
his imagination is stirred by something more
potent than koumiss.
Alexander Stephens was wheeled daily into
the senate of the United States, a helpless in
valid, and yet he served his country well, be
cause his wonderful intellect was superior to any
bodily weakness. One day of Stephens' life was
worth more to humanity than the hundred or
more years of insipid inactivity of the aged men
the great scientist found in the mountains.
Those who are bringing back from the spirit
world prescriptions for long life should get onto
another tack, and secure advice as to how to live
rsefully and well. The man who has a rest
in life, who does the work that comes to his
hand, who can enjoy his hours of toil as much
as he does those of his leisure, is the only one
who really is living. And, if he drives himself
to exhaustion In less than half his alloted span, of
succeeds in living out his three-score and ten
years, yet his measure is in what he has done
for the world and not how much he has accumu
lated for himself.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow
js our aesunea ena ana way,
But to act that each tomorrow
Find us further than today.
And to quote from Francois Villon, in Mc
Carthy's play, "An end is an end,' whether it
cometh on the winged heels of a week, or the
dull crutch of a century." To live is not to
linger here many days, but to do something to
justify having been here at all.
. A Definition Sorely Needed.
What is a "flapper?"
By some the term is used to designate a state
of dress, a prime symptom being shortness of
skirt. By some it is used to describe a state of
mind, chiefly evidenced by a lack of serious
thought. By still others it is a term applied to
any young girl of IS to 18 years of age.
, People who speak of "flappers" and a great
many of them do, with reference to a great many
of their fellow human beings appear to be in
pgrcement upon just two things: The word ap
plies to women, not to men; it implies brevity
always, though sometimes brevity of dress, some
times of brains, sometimes of age. Meaning so
many things to different people, it means very
little. " Its application to any particular individual
by any other individual may carry an impression
about that person quite at variance with the
actual thought which seeks expression. Its
use generically as, for instance, by Margot
Asquith may mean anything, or nothing, de
pending on how Mrs. Asquith defines "flapper."
; All of which is preliminary to a declaration
of one of the great needs of the day: A Web
ster of slang. We have dictionaries which tell
us the meaning of words centuries old, or even
decades old. But the world moves too fast; the
"punch" language of today is the slang of today.
It is the current medium -for the exchange of
ideas not only on the street but in the homes,
sometimes even in the pulpit Really, we should
know what we are talking with as well as what
we are talking about.
' Energy for Commercial Uses.
Nine years ago a little ship, sailing from a
Swedish port, put in at Seattle after an unevent
ful voyage. Its arrival would not have been
noted beyond the line given arrivals in the "ship
ping news" columns, save for the fact that it
'was the first vessel to go around the world de
pending on an internal combustion engine for
power. Twin Diesel engines supplied the mo
tive energy. This accomplishment was taken
advantage of during the late war, the U-boat and
the submersibles generally relying on the Diesel
i type of engine for power. Last week an Ameri
can commerce carrier returned to Philadelphia,
its home port, after a voyage of 30,000 miles,
during which the engines and machinery cost
rot a cent for repairs, and, according to the
Philadelphia Ledger, ready to put out to sea
' again at once. The performance, is one that will
get the close attention of all pojer users, The
DiMfl engine burrs crude oil, "J, at appli i to

Once in a while the eurory reader of the
modern newspaper comes arrot an item that
really it worth the trouble it took to chronicle,
Here is one:
Taroma. Va!i March I. A resident here,
who mint go down to (ante under the name of
John I because of government regulation!,
' sent Hurni l'oe, collector of internal revenue,
a f hrrk for f 6 Oo.
"I do not owe an itirome tax, but I do be
lieve every man in tin land should 4ieln sup
port the government, so here'i my bit," lie
wrote.
Several avenues of approach are opened here.
The eatiest one is that the writer, whoe name
the government knows but will not tell, is really
a patriot and wants to do hit bit. If such be the
cate, lie Is one among an hundred million, and a
reproach to most of the others. Some men pay
taxes cheerfully, realizing that money is needed
to carry on the government, and that each citi
zen is responsible for the government. Most of
us, however, grudge the money we turn over to
the tax coltector; and spend considerable of our
time growling about the extravagance of the ad
ministration, varying the latter with criticisms
of its inefficiency and failure to accomplish the
things we would like to have dune. Therefore,
the "John Doc" check must be to the officials
like the "shadow of a great rock in a weary
land." It is proof that somebody appreciates his
privileges and is willing to pay for his share to
wards defraying the expense of maintaining
them. It is hardly expected that this man will
be lost sight of in a throng of imitators.
What Normalcy Means.
J. E. Davidson of Omaha is responsible for
this bit of optimism in addressing the Wisconsin
Electrical association at Milwaukee:
The outlook in all lines of industry looks
brighter every day. It is time those words,
"business as usual," were forgotten, or at least
let us change them to "business unusually
good." Let's "can" this phrase "back to nor
malcy." We don't know what normalcy
means, but what we do want to see is im-
. provemcnt of all lines.
Xo one can be in doubt as to the spirit of
Mr. Davidson's remarks. It is a spirit with
which more and more people are coming into
accord, a spirit which brings its own result as
it encourages everyone to new effort at achieve
ment. Mr. Davidson is right when he says that we
will not be satisfied merely to return to the old
standards. If that is what is meant by "back to
normalcy," let us indeed "can" the phrase. But
is it? Normalcy in America never has meant
stand still. Normal conditions inr America have
always been conditions of steady progress to
better things, economically, socially and
politically.
When President Harding popularized the
phrase "back to normalcy" during his campaign
tor the presidency, it is certain that he did not
mean a mere restoration of fixed standards of
1914. He did not mean that as a principle and
he has not followed that in practice. The arms
conference was not a "stand-pat" undertaking;
it was, however, a normal proceeding toward
amity between nations.
Normalcy includes sane and steady progress.

Getting the Right Start.
"It must be right; I've done it from my
youth," wrote Crabbe. Such is the force of
habit; the danger of bad habits and the benefit
of good ones.. Any action, once performed,
leaves behind it a tendency to repetition. There
is no one who can refrain from becoming the
victim of habit, and the only questiojj to be de
cided is of what sort they shall be.
Parents do not recognize this natural law
as widely as they ought. George Herbert Betts
emphasizes this need in a little pamphlet issued
by the Abingdon press, called "The Roots of
Disposition and Character." Habits, he points
out, are formed more quickly during the first
years of a child's life than ever afterward. The
habit of obedience, of courtesy, of good disposi
tion, of care of the person, the habit even of
thinking, can be absorbed by boys and girls long
before they understand the reasons for them.
The process is thus explained:
Today an act, which tomorrow becomes a
habit; the next day the habit determines be
havior, and so shapes conduct; conduct finally
runs into character, and character spells
destiny.
When schools attempt to train children in
manners and character they undertake a most
difficult task, for the boys 4nd girls come to them
too late. The groundwork of life, of failure or
success, frequently may be laid before a child
ever enters the schoolroom. The home must not
shirk its duties, nor come to believe that some
agency of the community or state can fulfill its
ancient function.
Educational movies are to be shown in Omaha,
and it is expected that beholders will discdver
how simple and interesting geography can be
made when properly displayed. That will not
entirely meet little Johnnie's needs, for he would
like to see the whole thing wiped'out.
The flying boat is not yet established as the
safest means for making an ocean voyage. The
floating hotel still has some advantages.

Jim Stewart stopal his four-horse team
.At the field's end where the road goes
by.
The road like a long brown dusty aeam,
That winds away to the western sky.

A common place to walk or ride
When going to church or the cross
road store.
But Jim can see through half closed
eyes
The place where the trail grows new
and faint,
Where brown men toll 'neath open skies.
And live in cabins untouched by paint.
There are forests vast where steel saws
fly.
There are yawning shafts that spew
out ore,
There are docks where ships st Rncor tie
The smoky mills where engines roar.
Jim Stewart sees all these and more.
Between his field and that far place,
Where wild sea meets sandy shore,
And trails fade out and leave no trace.

But the ends ot earth are not for him.

Why I Specialize
On Nervous Patients
Of Extracting Teeth
Without Pain-
MY reason for specializing on patients
who have sensitive teeth is because I
have every known appliance and conveni
ence to do the work and when I say "pain
less extraction" I mean it You should not
fear the Dentist Chair when you can b
given this improved service.
If your teeth are in a sensative condition
you can not possibly trust their importance
to some inexperienced operator. I guarantee
my work to be first class and you must be
satisfied, last, and all the time.
