Street barricades have been thrown up In various cities, and rioting and fighting Is prevalent ev-erywhere. Led by the Communists, hungry hordes are sweeping through the food shops. The only thing that will ' make a politician speechless with amazement- - failure to ask him to is the public's say something. . . .. The United States and Canada own 88 per cent of the world's automobiles, and about the same proportion of the world's reckless drivers. What's that? 25,000,000,000 marks to the pound sterling?

V Man's Mind Is Sometimes Wont to Show Him More Than Seven Watchmen By RUDYARD KIPLING, In New York World. one thing that stands outside eiaggeration or belittlement, BUT all changes in shapes of things, and the sounds of words, the bidding, the guidance that drives a man to own himself and upholds him through his itepB on that road. The bidding comes, direct as a beam of light, from that past when man had grown into his present shape, which past, could we question it, would probably refer us to a past immeasurably remoter still, whose creature, not yet man, felt within him that it was not well for him to jackal round another brute's till, even if he went hungry for a while. It is not such a far cry from that creature howling over his empty stomach in the dark to the heir of all the ages counting over his coppers in front of a cookshop to see if they will run to a full meal as Borne few here have had to do, and the principle is the same : "At any price that I can pay, let me own myself." And the price is worth paying if you keep what you have bought. For the eternal question still is whether the profit of any concession that a man makes to his tribe, against the light that is in him, outweighs or jus-tifies his disregard of that light. A man may apply his independence to what is called worldly advantage and discover too late that he laboriously has made himself dependent on a mass of external conditions for the main- - tenance of which he sacrificed himself. So he may be festooned with the whole haberdashery of success and go to his grave a castaway. Some men hold that the risk is worth taking. Others do not. It is to these that I have spoken. "Let the council of thy own heart stand, for there is no man more faithful unto thee than it. For a man's mind is sometimes wont to show him more than seven watchmen who sit above in a high tower.

HOPKINS, Presbyterian Minister, Michigan Cit), Ind. 1 What is tka matter Tdth our teachers of morals that they should hold up as magnificent examples of the glory of being physically fit auch Bible heroes as Samson and then wish to throw Dempsey and Firpo into jail? Why do they denounce war and applaud the pacifist and doughface. 5 It waa by the power of his muscles that Samson, the prophet, lifted the gates of Gaza and paid the Philistines for their injustice in punish-ing his sin by making their temple a heap of ruins. It was St. Taul who said, after watching the Olympian athletic games of his day: "I am like those gladiators. I fight, but not as one who beats the ir." Every man,- - woman, and nation should be so fit no one would dare to kjck them. The men who can 6ilence machine guns and drive in s squad of enemy soldiers like so many ducks, and the man who can for five minutes close the eyes of a giant to the beauties of the Hudson, the Palisades, and the Statue of Liberty, as Dempsey did to Firpo, gives the world of normal men and women a healthy, holy thrill. .

SANER, President American Bar Association. It is stated on competent authority that there are 1,500,000 radicals In this country who are clamoring for a change in the nature of our government from its present form to one of various degrees of com-munistic state. It is said there are 400 newspapers and periodicals that represent similar views, and that are read regularly by 5,000,000 people. It is also said that $3,000,000 was spent during the past year in behalf of "red" propaganda. , We submit that the time has come when members of the bar should bestir themselves in a unified effort to meet this challenge. Such unified activity has, as a matter of fact, been already too long delayed. Tho schools of America should no more consider graduating a stu-dent who lacks faith in our government than a school of theology should graduate a minister who lacks faith in God. It should be borne in mind that the service which is incumbent upon ub is primarily Tie of education. A bnlloon ascension Is no longer an attraction. An county fair wants a dirigible or nothing. Some of the earth's woes have beea ascribed to Venus, indicating that th ludy In still up to her old tricks. The Jails in Which Thousands Get Their First Experience as Prisoners By DR. HASTINGS P. HART, In Moral Welfare. The jails contain prisoners convicted of crime, prisoners accused of crime, witnesses accused of no crime but held for the convenience of the state, insane persons, and in some states, debtors. Village lockups are as a rule fifthy, infested with vermin, and unfit for use. City police stations are often no better. Yet it is in these prisons that thoueands of people get their first experience as prisoners. Such im-prisonment involves a degradation which affects the entire after-lif- e. In every jail there are found some prisoners who are not hardened in crime, but who desire to reform, but they are forced into association rith the vilest criminals, who ridicule their penitence, eiert themselves for their corruption, and blackmail them after their discharge. Yet o man cares for their souls. When an individual who it not vicious is arrested, he should have the help of a wise and interested group of Christian people.

Suit Uk Cultural Education for Young Man Should Precede Technical Training By COL. WILLIAM N. STARRETT, in New York Herald. Among the large number of young men constantly seeking an open-ing in tho profesaior.s and in business, the percentage that I have seen who possess the valunhle nwt termed jprsonality, 1b iniall. For th is reas'in, I liave enme to tiie coiicliiaion that a cultural educa-tion fhuuld preocdu tcchnii.-a- l training, or should at least, he combined with it. It Feems to me that a young man's chant?, are greatly improved ly an attractive presence, and surely, a certain amount of culture is a great aid to a pleasing personality. By this, I mean, for example, the technically educated man should have the best pebble knowledge of the i:ngl:sh language, and en appreciation of the amcnitiei of life. Many young men who possess a good technical education use aston-inhin- g English ; their grammar is bad and their diction ia often deplorable. In short, this sidy of their education appears to have ken sadly neglected U tW huU to pursue a certain eours of training to it cwnjuaJon. |
