A Minneapolis girl went to Chicago with the idea that she was destined for a “career.’ She had shown tal- ent in her high school days. Now she is in jail for stealing from a home where she had sought work as a domestic helper after failing to get sue. There are a lot of girls and boys, too, who are -so eager for “careers” that they are not learning how to live. They mistake a dream for an ideal. A dream is something we wish for; an ideal is something we work for. A dream makes commonplace du- ties dreary and distasteful, while an ideal makes them interesting and at- tractive because they are the solid foundation upon which one may stand in reaching up for the ideal. The dream leads to neglect; the ideal en- courages performance. Here is some sound commencement time advice to boys and girls who are determined to seek careers. Don’t do it. Rather, remember that today is the great adventure and the great oppor- tunity. Don’t get your heads so far in the clouds that your feet stumble. You can never find your career; it must find you. If you have made ~@ safe, solid road as you go, your des- tiny will travel surely over it and catch up with you from behind. That neighborhood girl who sought a career and. Ignded in a cell looked Jearning how to climb. The Prince of Wales is:having a perfectly awful time finding a non- Teutonic wife. TAX UNSCIENTIFIC. | Claude Kitchin, chairman of the | ways and means committee, confessed that..he would vote for the revenue Dill with his eyes shut and that the} horizontal increase of 10 per cent on} imports, already paying a tariff tax, | and on all articles now on the free}, list was. unscientific and indefensible. Before the revenue bill becomes a law there should be friends enough in the house and the senate to make it scientific and defensible, ‘for it will have to be defended on the stump by these who impose this tax in their effort to secure re-election from those upon whom its burden falls. ‘Evidently the ways and means com- mittee underestimated the patriotism of the business men of the country in considering them unwilling to pay heavy income taxes. The protests have been most bitter at the unscien- tific tinkering with present product- ive enterprises, especially in this horizontal increase of tariff rates, in- cluding taxes on raw materials. What the business men of the country want is that their productive energies be left unimpaired, that no monkey- wrench be thrown into the machinery | of production and that they be allow-/ ed, or even compelled, to contribute heavily from profits and incomes, feel- ing that their productive energies are| devoted to the task of financing the war. Take the single item of a 10 per cent on hides, now on the free list. Shoe manufacturers contend that this will produce a comparatively small revenue for the government, while enabling the beef trust to raise their R{a readjustment of all business con- -|tracts necessary and by the time the 7 | consumption. 6 ergy they display, the more business lare to be Liberty Loan days for wom- first, always. prices on hides automatically 10 per cent and that the export shoe busi- ness will be brought t oan end, thus crippling an enterprise which would produce large revenues directly to the government through taxes on incomes and excess profits. At the other end of the line the consumer, who is already paying in the neighborhod of 100 per cent more for shoes, must add not only the 10 per cent increase on hides, but an ad- ditional increment of taxation for every stage of handling between ‘the manufacturer and the consumer. There are many examples in the house which will automatically make increase reaches the consumer, it will have multiplied itself several times, thus making a horizontal rais- ing of the cost of living, already mountain high. It is to be hoped that the senate will lift the burden of taxation from Let the business men of the country feel that the more en- acumen they possess, the harder they work, and the more wisely they plan, the larger the revenue.

We call it a war for world-wide democracy, but in true democracy and in the danger of the spread of brutal autocracy, as in all other dangers, it is the women and children first.
