Think of the happiest and at the same time the most wide- awake and progressive family you know-—~the one which most closely illustrates your idea of family life. -Analyze the secret of their success, and you will probably find it lies in their power of co-operation and compromise. No member insists in. carry- -ing out his own wishes regardless of the interests and wishes of the others. Each claims a little and yields.a, little. The real basis of their life is a spirit of mutual help and forbearance. The community is only a larger family. To accomplish satisfactory results there must be a body of ‘citizens working together in harmony. ‘And in order.to achieve anything worth while, each man must not insist too strongly upon his own wishes and ideas. When he finds that they conflict with the jdeas of others he must be prepared to yield the less essential details of his plan—or perhaps to attain only part of his object. If the public improvement which he has at heart seems desirable enough to warrant it, he must be ready to support his neighbor’s pet project (if it is niot distinctly an unworthy one) in order to gain the neighbor’s support to his own object. must: control his temper, study the personality. of the man. he is dealing wit¥, use tact and-consideration. These are qualities we must all cultivate to work with each other successfully and to do our part in the community life. 7, IS THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS. It is a difficult matter to turn the clock back five years, especially if within those five years the world has had a cen- tury’s experience of terror and wrong and suffering and pain. Yet if we strive to recall the conditions five years ago we see the nations of Europe suspicious of each.other, with fears of aggression and dread of loss, and the United States lying isolated across the sea, buying and selling, reaping and sowing, to its own interests alone. . That day is over forever. Through disaster and suffering the new. brotherhood of the world has:come into existence. “No man liveth to himself alone,” and neither can any nation of the world, from this time on, rightfully live to itself alone. The League of Nations has been formed. It is the expres-| sion of & truth that will become more clear to us all: as time goes on—that after: all the separate interests of the world merge into one great interest. F ; Premier Clemencesau says ithat President Wilson is “the most stubborn man he ever encountered.” ‘It will be recalled that the emblem of the dmocratic party is a stubborn one, and that the emblem of the United States is:as determined as it is ‘powerful. 0 It is & question which brings the greatest aggregate amount | = of joy to America—the day when a fransport from France|x arrives or the day when the price of butter drops a cent a pound. -0 A captured German colonel said dolefully, “Nothing can resist the American troops.”. We always knew that the Amer- i;an.girls were irresistible—perhaps the boys learned it of them. 0. Maybe when President Wilson is again settled at the White House he and the senate will hold a love feast—and then again maybe they won’t. 4 Qe Now. that the Red Cross auxiliaries. are closing up every- where will there be another era of bridge whist and embroid- ered doilies? i Big Jump.in Prices Hide Market Has Advanced The demand for furs was never better than it is today.
