(The Fact Is That When You Get to Know a Man
and His Surroundings—
V ' By IRVII* COBB, in Motor.
lAM constrained to believe from my own knowledge gained at the
front and behind the lines of the soldiers of warring Europe, that
had it been possible prior to 1914 ibr all the peoples of the Continent
to-possess the same abundance of cheaprpriced cars which the run of
human beings in this country can have,‘and had there been no artificial
barriers at the national boundaries to keep neighbor from seeing neigh
bor, not even Prussian militarism could have driven all the eastern part
of the world into a dreadful struggle.
The fact is that when you get to know a man and his surroundings
—and you do know them better when you are ridiug in a car along a high
road than you ever can from a railroad train—you find out that the
general run of human beings in one land is very much like the general run
of human beings in almost any other. t
Along with the prayer for everlasting peace which is going up from
; nearly every fireside where real Americans sit, is the prayer for a return to
normal conditions in this country, for a curing of the evils which the
last war loosed upon us industrially, socially, economically and financially.
That is a good prayer and we should pray also for a thing tjiat is spiritual,
perhaps, but which has its material side as - well, be'oause out of it will
grow material good. We should pray—every one of ns—for a greater
charity toward our fellow man, for a kindlier impulse for his shortcom
ings, and for a broader, wider understanding of him and his likes and
dislikes.
Investment in Airplanes Abundantly Justified
as Business Proposition
By BERTRAND RUSSELL, in the Freeman.
, I think that the British and the Americans are apt to underestimate
the influence of armies and navies. Take for instance the position at
present of Prance, Germany and England in relation to one another.
France, by military force alone, has seized the Ruhr coal field; the
Germans cannot resist because they are disarmed. Great Britain dislikes
tills policy, and also dislikes the repudiation by the French of their debt
tO'the British. If the British possessed the necessary armaments, they
would' collect their debt from France by the same methods which tlio
French are using against the Germans, or by a threat of these methods (if
that proved sufficient).,, The British do not do so because they are afraid
of French airplanes.
Thus the French, by means of armament alone, have been enabled
(a) to avoid paying their share of the cost of the great war; (b) to seize
the bulk of Germany’s industrial resources. It would seem, therefore,
that the investing of money in airplanes was abundantly justified as a
business proposition.
“The Worst, but Only One of Many Discrimina
tions, Against Middle West"
By H. C. KESSINGER, Illinois State Senator,
Abolish Pittsburgh plus. Stop federal aid funds. Build St. Law
rence waterway. Elect midwestern man speaker of house, midwestem rep
resentation on federal reserve board (credits), and on interstate commerce
commission (rates). Save the interurban lines. Regulate the railroads
without destroying them.
“Pittsburgh plus” means Chicago minul. You can buy steel made
in South Chicago, haul it in your own truck to your factory or farm, and
on this steel made in Illinois you have to pay the freight from Pittsburgh.
It is the worst but only one of the many discriminations against the
Middle West. We need a Middle West consciousness and solidarity, an
aroused and organized public opinion to.advance a Mid-West program for
justice to our people in the matter of the making of tariffs, the levying of
taxes, the spending of public funds, and the regulating of freight rates.
All federal aid funds are expensive for the Middle West. We get
back only a small part of the, money we contribute. Pittsburgh plus cost
our part of the country more than $30,000,000 last year for fictitious
freight rates on steel manufactured in the Chicago district.
More Than Ever Today Youth Detests
Selfishness, Injustice and War
By DR. W. E. GARDNER, Secretary, etc., Episcopal Church.
Youth is searching for the power that Christianity has always had,
the power that can be applied every day. More than ever today youth
detests selfishness, injustice and war of every kind. The young do not
think so much about the wrong and evil in these things as we do; they
think they are foolish and unnecessary curses.
The youth of the world today are hunting for truth more than they
were twenty years ago, and they are interested in nonmaterial objectives
of life because world events compel them to that kind of an interest.
Most of the inhabited parts of the world are explored. The adventures
of life are no longer in discovering countries. The adventures of the
future, youth knows, are in the realm of ideas. Every boy and every girl
with ambition knows that,suceess depends more on morals and mind than
on muscle.
Everywhere boys and girls are-looking for spiritual power. They may
call it by different names, but they seek spiritual power. They will find
the power they need in religion where mankind has found it throughout
the ages. . 1
The Cowetrd May Be Merely a Person With
Small “Glands of Combat"
/ .' By DR. ADOLPH LORENZ, Famous Surgeon. '
> We are haring much nowadays about adrenalin. The quality t ihai
makes some men ready for a fight or a frolic is due to the “glands ft
combat,” the adrenals.
Chics thought to be measly little lumps of fat, they were later found
to take a v«y important part in the play of lisp forces. The active prin
ciple, or hormone, of this gland is adrenalin. It ia thrown into your blood
in a steady stream when the sensation of fear comes. Nature thus makes
an effort to flood your body with the chemical basis of courage.
The coward, then, may be merely a person deficient in a reserve stock
of this valuable substance of whi<h valor is made. We know certain men
who are always ready to fling themselves into a slugging match, even before
t}ie chip it knJcgfed a2 t&ar shoulder*. > ' .

THE RIGHT THING
at the
f RIGHT TIME
fly MARY MARSHALL PUrteß
KNIVES AND FORKS =
Custom reconciles us to every thing."* I
Edmund Burke.
TC'OR the family dinner table it used £
to be considered in perfectly good E
taste to have the teaspoons placed in £
what was known as a spoon-holder, £
and In many households this silver o* £
glass contraption still persists. But E
there was a very good reason why it S
went out of favor among more fastidk E
ons folk. It was bound to collect dust E
and, as it was left on the sideboard or E
table between meals it offered very E
poor harborage for the clean spoons. E
So now we have our spoons kept with E
the knives and forks between meals in E
a closed drawer in the buffet or pantry, E
and they are laid on the table, where E
they will be most convenient when the E
table is set just before each meal. £
For the simple dinner it is possible £
correctly to place all the silver on the £
table for the entire meal, save possh £
bly the small coffee spoons, if that bev- £
erage is served after the dessert. Fof £
a longer, more elaborate dinner, only £
the silver for the first three or fou* £
courses is laid at the places at the be> £
ginning of the mnl, as the entire set £
would appear rather cumbersome, and :
additional knives and forks are E
brought in as the course is served. Be- E
sides, it often happens that the hostess £
really lins not enough silver fore £
rnany-coursed dinner for a party of a £
dozen or more, and so this gives her an £
opportunity to have the pieces used In £
the first courses washed for use late* £
on In the meal.
It Is a general rule that forks ars £
placed to the left of the plate, With the E
prongs up, and that knives and spoons £
are placed at the right, the tip of thq £
spoon uppermost and the blade of the :
knife turning In toward the plate, £
Spoons are placed to the right of the E
knives, usually, although It is custom- £
ary to -place the oyster fork at the e» £
treme right Some persons prefer to £
place the oyster fork diagonally across E
the spoons and knives, but this is per-! £
haps not in such simple taste. .It Is a 1 :
very good plan to have the sliver aiVE
ranged according to courses. Thus :
the oyster fork, which will be needed :
before any of the spoons or the knives,
is placed where It is most easy to get :
it *t the extreme right the other *
knives and spoons being arranged as ■
they will be needed from that point ■
toward the plate. With the forks the :
one first needed is at the extreme left :
At formal dinners, of course, there la :
no butter spreader, because there 1s no j
butter. If dinner rolls are served, they :
are eaten without butter. But sit ]
luncheons or at the family dinner, :
where butter la served, the spreaders j
are best placed across the butter plate. :
Os course, these spreaders are a con- :
venience, but It is quite possible to ■
dispense with then, and many persona :
who set a well-equipped table do waft- ■
age without them.
