It makes no claim to keep them away permanently. Doctor Pas-so- t, one of the most successful of the French specialists now engaged In this work, admits that the operation has to be repeated every three or Ave years. Here, therefore, Is one count against this method as a significant beauty aid. Another Is a certain artificiality in (the subsequent look of the face which 'has been lifted. Sometimes this only means a smooth emptiness of exposi-tion. Sometimes the eyelids are subtly affected or the eyes given a 'slightly slanting look. Of course, most of us would not be adverse to certain changes of expos-ition, but, on the other hand, we are bound to regret loss of the mobility on which the eloquence of the face Eileen Bourne In Liberty. j" TIME TO SMILE Turn to American Braket Freight cars on French railroads are to be equipped with American brakes similar to those used on French passenger cars, at an estimated cost of about $02,700,000.

Stupidity in Making Collections Great Defect of the Income Tax Law By FRANK E. WOLFE, National Labor Leader. is something wrong with the income tai system. Not a TIIEBE statement. There is always something wrong with all In this case it is being pointed out that the income tax from more than 2,000,000 persons in the United States cost the government more to collect than their total tax amounts to. , It is stated that while these taxpayers paid an average f only $2.23, the handling of their returns and the administrative expenses involved amounted to an average jof more than $2.50. Of course the same situation holds in regard to the thousands whose returns are defectively made out and are sent back for revision or for in-vestigation. Even when an error is found that involves a small sum the cost of collecting it far exceeds the amount. A large portion of this loss could be eliminated by the simple ex-pedient of raising the limit on the small man's exemption and Btop worry-ing him for returns when he doesn't make the limit. When this suggestion is brought up before those in the seats of the mighty you will find there a counter plea for a reduction of the surtaxes and exemptions for the very rich. T If a grocer should adopt a system of collections that would cost him $L10 for every dollar collected people would call him an imbecile, but the government does the same thing thus proving that there is collective imbecility as well as individual idiocy.

Nation Beginning Armed Conflict " "" v By NEWTON D. BAKER, ry of War. The next war will be the greatest demonstration the world has ever seen and will be a battle of combatants against noncombatants. not be-tween soldiers; the sufferers will be men, women and children supposedly in peaceful pursuits; it will be a struggle of nations to gain access to the ' , natural resources of the world. Most causes' of war are based on territorial disputes, religion or dy--. nastic necessities, but all are overshadowed by the exploitation by na-tions of natural resources. Modern war can be made only by five or six. nations, England, France, Italy, perhaps Germany, Japan and the United States. Other nations can create only riots, not wars, but they could make wars if supplied with arms. There is one agency really at work, the League of Nations, for per-petuation of peace. I believe that congress should pass a doctrine that if two countries enter war the United States will cut all trade relations with the country breaking any treaties. No nation would declare war then, as the United States is indispensable. I believe that the country should be into the World court and should be sympathetic to all agencies of under-standing and conciliation. ' Religions in America Can Learn Something From Those of the Orient By PROF. JULIAN MORGENSTERN, Hebrew Union College. America is creating a distinctive culture, and the Orient has many contributions to make to it. There is need for a wider tolerance in this country's treatment of the problems raised by immigration, prohibition,' and the conflict between fundamentalism and modernism. Every would-b- e immigrant is regarded with suspicion as a parasite on the body of the American nation; but in characteristic manner, the Tnited States ha9 leaped at the conclusion that blond parasites are Dot quite as annoying or dangerous as brunettes. There are growing up in the United States distinctive religions American Protestantism, American Judaism, American Catholicism all of which still have something to learn from the oriental religions. An in-creased interest in oriental studies would go a long way toward producing wider tolerance. The growing American democracy is as ready for a democracy of learning as it is for a democracy of wealth. I look forward to the day when the tired American business man will seek his intellectual relaxation in the wisdom of the East as he now seeks it in golf and sports. ' .

ALLAN, High School Principal, Detroit. Grown-u- p women cast aside conventions and originated flapperism during the war, and they're still at it,, so how can the young girls be ex-pected to be any different? Parents make the standards of social life and if we keep having wars neither the boy nor the girl can be blamed for what they do. But with it all the budding womanhood of our nation is just as good as their pioneer ancestors who rode the covered wagons. The big-gest trouble with parents today is they don't understand their children; they are uninformed as to their characteristics. Newspapers should stop flaunting the faults of adolescents and devote more time to playing up their good points. There are plenty to be found and they outnumber the shortcomings. Modern girls are superior to those of past era3 in every way. They are stronger and healthier, turn out more work and in general carry on in fine shape. Obligations Imposed on Society by Development of Labor-Savin- g Machines By JAMES J. DAVIS, Secret y of Labor. The time will come when employers who desire to use new la'o saving machinery will first see to it that the man who is to "go" with the coming of the machine shall not evolve into "waste" labor an his years of training and experience, perhaps, thrown upon the scrap heap of dis-use. As we go on inventing new machines for speed we must, too, invent new industries for the safety of our workers. Speed and safety are meant to correlate, not to destroy each other, They belong hand in hand among the adjuncts of our industrial y. And to see to it that they so remain, with full protection to each and v orLcr, is one of the solemn duties that society owes to Libor. |
