She's' from Ole Virginny, ang that
accounts for why lady Astor ran like
a real American. She had more votes
to spare than the average winner in
a race for congress in this country.
That leads us to conclude that she is
a good politician at the outset.

The socialist following in ltaly that
would have their country recognize
soviet Russia is a hopeless element,
but it is no worse than the class fol
lowing ’Annunzio. We have onr
troubles, but none of them are as
bad as all these-—awould you say?
Troubles larger than those arising
out of the Jenkins case are ahead for
Mexico. For the sake of humanity
seme force ought to undertake set
ting things in order. 1t will be our
duty. Mexico is our charge, whether
we would have it so or not.

There is much talk about the

desirable, undountedly, to get a de

register its verdict with more con

it were possible. }

body who has expressed an npininni
lately, in publie life, in private life ()ri
in the press, seems to want the mat
ter settled now, to end the long de
lay and the growing confusion :nul‘
unrest, And as a matter of fact, there
s no lack of data on which to base
a settlement, The public understanas
the general scope of the treaty will
cnought, and is satisfied to accept
it, with a few ciaritying and safe
suarding reservations The public be
lieves that the Senators, by a sen

SLOGAN FOR TODAY i
A curious thing happended a l'vw'
vears ago in the Zoo at Central Pack |
in New York City. An elephant who
for yvears had been chained to a cer
tain spot had his ferters removed
ane day but he refused to budge f'vrom
the long familiar place. Psychologists
insisted that the huge Least, despite
hix great strength, was literally
bound to the spot by the curious but
ungquestioned power of habit, |
Now, the word "habit> is d(\ri\'ml‘
from the Latipy word which means “lul
have™, And in view of this clephant’s
dlemng it is oan interesting problem
to ask ourseives whether we have a
Labit or whether the habit has us.
Roussean was wrong in saying lh:lli
v child should be taught nothing :unll
should be left untrained until it \\'us‘
twelve vears old. For, it is a well-
Krown fact that habits begin to lu-|
fermed at birth, How easy it is l'm'i
w skilled nurse to train a baby ull
birth to feed t certain hours and “'!
go without feeding from ten at ni;m:
i til six oin the morning. Al depends
upon how we start the child, Ang this
< also true of a child’s moral "m'!
intellectual life. “Train up a rhild‘
in the way it should go and when it
is old it will not depart from it.” ’ |
Living a life of Sobiety -of of I
hunkenness, of morality or of im--
morality. of industry or of :.‘a-vthml—;
ness. is largely a question of habit.|
Coaracter isself is simply a motter ul'i
crvstallized habit, a second nature ac
ired thra frequent n-rvl:xiun.]
Dreaking a good habit is a seriows
thing. In magnitude it conmpares to a
lvak in the dvkes of Holiand. Break
ue w bad habit may mark a revolu
tion i a man’s way of living. It
means stopping a leak that wastes a
pan’s precious energies
.~ The slogan for today is not the re
{ ormation of character but the for
pation of character. And this should
‘ zin at the earliest possible moment
s"" ere is truth in the statement that.
“the chains o habit are seldom heavy‘
enough to be felt until they are too
strong to he easily broken”. 'l‘he!
wise man, according to that great p:sy{‘
chologist, William James, is the onc
who “makes his nervous system his
friend and ally and not his encmy.”
THIS WOMAN RIGHT
A woman came home from shop
ping recently with the whole question
of industrial unrest settled so far
as she was concerned.
“l have it!" she said, *l know
all about why clothing costs so
much. It isn't the retailer, or the job
her or the manufacturer or the
consumer or anyone in particular
It is the principle of putting labor
on the wrong things!
“The stroes are full of silk |
waists whose material is so rot
ten they won't wear six weeks., A
silk waist should be lustrous and
beautiful. The chief beauty of silk
is the way it catches the light.
A good silk waist or dress should
wear, with daily use and decent
care, at least six months. With
occasional use, as for church and
afternoon purposes only, it
should wear at least a year.
“These waists were of silk so
* highly adulterated that they hard
ly looked like silk. They had no
wearing quality whatever, nor
any real beaut. There was no ap
parent reason why any woman
should want to own one. They
weren’t serviceable and they
weren’’t pretty.
“Phat shabby, deceitful tabric
had to be woven. The waists had :
to be cut out, they had to be
basted. stitched, tinished, and
handled by all the people be-
Yween weaver and consumer. It
took just as much labor for one
of those waists as for a waist
of bheautitul silk, or beautiful,
well-woven and finished cotton,
But to get the same wear, it took
four times as much labor, be
' cause it would take four waists
I to last as long as one good one.
“Waists of self-respecting mer
cerized poplin would have had
R raltbeaty’ o Tabric. A
waist of well-woven voile is far
« more beautitul than one of those
adultercted georgettes, And a thing
of real silk is a thing of service
{or many months.
“Yet people buy those things.
Where are their standards? And
they demand all that labor,
thee-fourths of which might be
released for other work.”
The woman has hit upon one basic
fact in modern lite. And it seems (o
come down to this—that women, the
big purchasers of the community, do
not know real value in textiles and
is styles.
