Southern railroads continue to make pood showing under private owner ship. They are earning more than their expenses and won't need any government guarantee. Senator Harding is sound enough on the industrial proposition. And for that matter, so is Governor Cox. The country cannot alTord to suffer be cause employers and employes won't get together. The Record appreciates the efforts of advertisers to prepare copy the day before publication. With n short force a newspaper does fairly well to issue, and now that the days are grow ing shorter, the paper must come out earlier in the afternoon oo trat the carriers can make their rounds nd reach home in time for study. In advocating better pay for gov ernment employes, Franklin D. Roosevelt struck the right note. Gov ernment service ought to be made so attractive that it will continue to nttract the best sort of men and wom en; there is no good reason why it should not put a premium on indus try and intelligence. If a man en tering the federal service should feel that he had a chance to reach the top or at least would be able to pull down good salary as he improved in his job. There ought to be as much inducement in government service iu in any other employment. Naturalists tell ua that Only a few male birds keep house for their mates at any season of the year. Sonic male birds sit on the egg or rustle for food, but most of them content themselves with perching on a limb and singing politics. Male birds hdt the nest, look it over and prob ably offer advice, but for the most part they spend their hours down town. They regard their place in the home just as primitive man does. Your ancestor was a first class hunts man and fisherman and probably a good warrior, but he was not much of a home-keeper. He left the women folk to keep hou'ie, tend the truck patch and care for the children, and many of his descendants have their own ideas about woman's place In this day and generation. SEVEN MONTHS IN THE LEAGUE What .has the league of nations ac complished? Wo have heard a great deal of its failure by its opponents and a great deal of what it has done by its advocates, but wc have few specifications. Those who apeak for the most part use generalities. Ray mond B. Fosdick, writing from Boothbay Harbor, Me., to the Spring- leld Republican vigorously outlines the notable record achieved by the league. "Senator Harding pronounces the league of nations "a failure and a wreck beyond the possibility of re pair," Senator Lodge characterizes it as a "battered hulk." What arc the facts? "1. The league of nations is now Wfjfnpotfed of 81) membernations, representing seven-eights of the peo ple of the globe. Practically alt the nations of the world have joined it xecpt the United States, Russia, Mexico and the ex-enemy countries. It seems probable that Germany and Austria will be admitted at the meet ing of the assembly of the league to be held at Geneva in November. It in significant that the Germans par tipatcd fully at the international sea wen's conference of the league at Cencva; and not only the Germans, but the Austrians, Hungarians and Bulgarians have been invited to the . The range of the league's work may be indicated by the following schedule of its meetings. Parenthet ically it should be noted that the league's policy is to hold its meetings in as many different countries p Bible. The council of the league has held sessions in London, Tans, Rome and Son Sebastian; the inter vitional labor conference of the league met at Washington; the inter national seamen's conference of the league at Genoa; the jurist advisory committee at The Hague; the inter national health conference at Lon don; the international ports and wat erways conference at Paris; the ar maments commission at San Sebas tian. The financial conference will soon meet at Brussels and the tran sit conference at Barcelona. "3. The armaments commission of the league (provided for by article 9 of the covenant) has been organized, and is now at work on the beginnings of a plan of universal disarmament for submission to the nations of the world. Obviously , the Unitei States is not represented on this com mission. "1 A permanent mandate commis sin has been appointed, as provided for in article 22 of the covenant, to pupervbe the administration of the foiritorirs and neonles freed from - - - w x German and Turkish rule. , The ap plication of this new principle is vital ly important to us, not only from the standpoint of freedom of trade for American commerce, but ctul more from the standpoint of establishing a system of justice which will prevent backward countries from becoming the tinder-box of future wars. 'T. The plans for a permanent court of international justice have been completed and are ready for sub mission to the assembly of the league at its meeting in November. Mr Root served as a member of this par ticular subdivision of the league's activity. "6. The council will place before the assembly in November the pro posal for a joint committee to work out the plans and principles of eco nomic blockade as the strongest guar antee of world peace and the great est restraint on a bandit nation that the countries vf the world have ever agreed to put into effect . Unless the United States is a member of the league it cannot join in forging this powerful weapon. 7. The financial conference called by the league of nations for the last of this month is the most important international gathering since the con ference at Versailles. The league has brought together a mass of in formation on world economic matters, such as has never been available be fore, covering such subjects as in ternational finance, credits, currency, exchange, etc. At this conference, which touches the interest and well being of every nation of the world, the United States will not be official ly represented. "8. Single-handed in Poland, with funds provided by its members, the league is fighting the typhus epidem ic, doing its best to keep back from the rest of the world the flood of this fearful scourge. The estimated cost of this work is $15,000,C00. The United States has no part in the fi nacing "9. The league is undertaking the task of repatriating the half-million prisoners of war Russians, Germans, Poles, Hungarians, Rumanians, etc. who, due to lack of transit facili ties, are still retained in enemy coun tries. It is estimated than 100,000 of these men will be returned to their homes before Christmas. "10. The leagri3 has established an international health office, a bu reau to fight the international ex ploitation of opium and other drugs, and a division to suppress the in ternational trade in women and girls. "These points represent the main activities of the league in the seven months of its existence. It is far from "wrecked." It is going ahead most courageously, rapidly organiz ing its work regardless of the United States. Wecannotdestroy.it, nor can we substitute another lcaguo in its place. Indeed, the latter conten ton is the sheerest absurdity. We have only two choices: To stay out side of a community of nations or framzed for co-operation and peace and thereby lose our whole place in the world; to say nothing of our own soul as n nation, or to come into the league (with reservations if Wc think necessary) and nut our shnnM f u wheel in all those great movements ior which American forei has always stood.'

The habit of Saving showy itself in ev erything you do. Bankers base credit largely on confi. deuce, and confidence shows plainly in the faces and acts of those who save. Bankers are always ready and anx ious to assist those who have confidence in themselves and save regularly a part of their income.

Thus a foreign policy is continuing and is .lot affected by a temporary whim. Thus, we see a Democratic admin istration endeavoring to settle the troublesome Asiatic problem on the Pacific coast, and we should see a Republican administration endeavor ing to promote ths peace of the world in some such manner as proposed by a Democratic president. The Recotd is addressing these facts to men and women yvho caie more for truth than they care for the politics in a campaign. The league f nations, now so terribly abused, will be accepted by the United States after this campaign is closed. LETTER FROM MRS. BRUCE TIls Remarkable Story of Sickness and Recovery. Brooksburg, Ind. "When I wa3 a young girl I clerked in my father's store and lifted heavy boxes , which caused displacement and I sutfere'li great ly.
