THURSDAY, APRIL 3, 19W ed his adherence to the general plan, f Statement of the Ownership, Manage- English, French and Italian statesmen havA had much to do with its basis 'and its phraseology. They are as The Germans declare the Peace Conference is sowing seeds of future wars. Trust the Allies to see Uiat none of them are viable! "Senator Borah Stole No Turkeys, But He Paid For Them," reads a headline. Senator Borah today cuts no ice; but he will feel the chill or public displeasure at his present at titude. The first "No Beer, No Work" but ton to make its appearance in Noith Carolina, so far as we can learn, was one seen in Raleigh recently. It was not worn by a workingman cr .v blear- eyed no'er-do-weli, but was in the a pel of the coat worn "fey the hea l of & corporation! " The bankers of the State introdiiceC at the recent session of the General Assmbly a bill to abolish the observ ance of Lee's birthday and the signing of the Mecklenburg Declaration as legal holidays in North Carolina. The time had not come, however, when the people were willing to sanction such a step, and the bill was tabled. As bear ing on the necessity for and the phy sical and intellectual value of holidays and as showing their place in preven tive medicine, the following from the Journal of the American Medican As sociation is worth considering. "There is such a thing as intellec tual indigestion resulting from inordi nate concentration. "Distinctly intellectual processes be come impaired unless a reasonable period for reflection and mental re cuperation is allowed. "The physician has a special con cern in the threatened abolition of the institution of holidays. To him who watches the mode of life of his fellow citizens the beneficence of an occas ional holiday has not escaped notice. The institution of suitable holiday periods is for the most, part more than likely to make for good. 'The right use of a holiday is one of the sover eign secrets in the practice of the no ble art of keeping alive.' "A change of work may become a holiday in essence. The best holiday is' not one spent in lanquid idleness, but one that contains the largest amount of new experience." THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS keen for it today as is President Wil son himself.

Having once taken a man's part in the world problems ol our time, shall we now heed the coun sels of those who would have the na tion undertake to crawl back into a -ori-rTi hn hppii forever shat- tered? "Our own belief is that in the long view of history the American nation will be proud of the share which its President has had in helping to shape a project designed to avert1 wars and bind the nations together."

It goes further: "Americans have a right to thin what they please of their President, provided they seek to appraise him fairly and honestly;, but they have no to ift their iudfanent with re- ference to his domestic policies or his political methods prevent them ft om forming a candid and intelligent opin ion of this proposed Society of Na tions. Defective as it may be, requir ing,, as it probably does, clarification and amendment here and there, the twenty-six points block out a path of progress for the human race. "Forget Mr. Wilson's personality for the momentand study the docu ment. As a matter of fact, it is a composite product. The idea behind it was nublicly championed byv Mr. Taft long before Mr. Wilson proclaim- young i-Asheyille Labor Advocate. i . m an fear that in the event of success some advantage will inure to the opposite party. As politics were largely sub ordinated to winning tL e war, so they should be sternly relegated to the reai at this time, wtien the one objective of the world's effort oagUt to be .the establishment of peace upon founda tions which give tfie greatest promise bf permanence.

As Bishop Quayle said, 'It is a million years since 1914,' yet some men in respon sible station continue to write Hia speak as if the events of 1918 were not. They seem to forget that the Yankee soldiers died in the faith that they were thus bringing an end, noj to one, but to all wars." The Christian Work (New York) has faith that the League shall rise above the clash of party turmoil: 'Wn:le there are pessimists who cvv that it is a Utopian idea and can nevr be made practicable, and while there are very grave difficulties in the way, and while nations may have to make distasteful sacrifices perhaps, still we must believe that the estab lishment of r- workable League of Na tions will 3. r-ly be achieved and that it will be r.io only possible ending to he victory vhich we have won. Pres ident Wile on is working as hard as any other man to bring about this thing, and every intelligent citizen can not fail to see how important it is that he should have the whole-heartec support of the nation behind him." AT LAST ' The North Carolina legislature, pas sed a so-called child labor law. The measure was adopted instead of a real law offered by Commissioner or l abor Shipman,' and advocated by the consolidated labor boards of the state, ... . . i and the cotton mill interests ui iuV stats-were champions, of the succesa- ful measure. The members of the legislature who listened to the "voice of tho master," and voted for the milk an J v.atr? child labor law, had all their trouble for nothing. In April the federal government will take charge of the child labor proposition in the state, and the law recently pas- rod at Italeigh is so weak that none of its provisions will find roomjor opera tion; ' -,. - It will be recalled that the Cotton Manufacturers' association held their convention here last year, and after adjournment, when the delegates had all inched home, some fellow sent out a news dispatch from Charlotte to the effect that the association had gone on record as favoring a state Jaw similar to the Keating child labor bill. It was announced at that time that the sincerity of the association woud be . put to the test. At the re cent session of the legislature tha: test was made, and the cotton manu facturers yrcre foimd sadly wanting in that great attribute sincerity. Ec strongly opposed were they to any law even similar to the Keating law that Commissioner of Labor Shipman was lied on, kicked about, and an effort made to oust him frorqhis state office. But now the efforts of the mill owning legislators and the bunch cf easily-led so-called statesmen have had all their trouble, and scheming for nothing, because of the operation of the real federal law going into ef fect in April. It is gratifying, indeed, to see the coming of national control of child labor, and to realize that at last , the nation has been aroused to the responsibility of caring for its .SOUTH REND MaDie It ha I he W orM s been the po L ; than hi ; - V erpiece Preferable pular range the world over for more . teen years, and is srowmg m pularity every year.
