] “Individual .Seldier to. be. Given Credit,” reads a headline issue of the Pioneer. The main reas-| on we refer to it here is so that readers will not think that it has anything to do with the adjusted compensation which many of the ex- they would get—from the Congress which has just closed a “success- ful” session. A Battle participation Board is being payed by the government to give each soldier credit for what he did in France. Probably Congress and Harding are of the opinion that this is enough credit, but that credit is much good when it comes to try- ing to buy some of the things most of the fellows, who didn’t take part in the war, were able to buy dur- ing the period when the young men were signing up to let somebody make a human “sieve” out of them. .—How's Your Bonus— Or Possibly For Christmas The way things are beginning to look in the Near East at the pres- ent time, there is a possibility that Great Britain may have Turkey for ’I'hanksm Just as if Great Britain would celebrate Thanksgiving Day! —Aint It A Fact?— Older Every Day It is reported that Mathilde Mc- Cormick’s marriage to Max Oser has been postponed again.

When Col. Washington A. Roeb- ling, who wove the great wire ca- 'bles over. plgns made by his fa- ther, John A. Roebling, announced the other day that the bridge was :good for many years to come,'he i spoke from a knowledge of long forgotten facts. -He knew when he built it that it would be sub- ject to overstrain in the future. And when he built into that first great bridge, which ushered in the Age' of Steel Wire and preceded ' his wire cables for the Williams- burgh and Manhattan bridgesover the East River, a factor of safety far in excess of what timid imag- inations could pieture, he built for centuries, not decades. as to weighing ice so that purchas- ers will not be cheated.

The cities which are now behind will have an opportunity of getting in the front ranks; while some of the cities now in the front ranks will drop back into the lower places. The result of the race will depend upon the vision of those who direct the affairs of these cities.” These changing conditions are al- ready evidenced by the Business Barometer Figure of the Babsonchart low, normal. I expect this sub-norm- al condition to soon dissapear. Wise are the cities which plan their im- provements and make their cortracts whr]e bnsmeas l.! stm be]ow normal.
