Some folks are not happy because! they can’t be Mary Pickfords, the John D. Rocke-| fellers, the Thos. A. Edisons or the Warren al ings of the eternal movie called Life. But— Mary Pickford and the other stars woud never! shine without support. And the glory of the heav-! ens at night is not in the single brilliant-glowing, planet, but in the myriad-scattered specks of star? | dust that surround it, each doing its little bit to! ehine its best. 4 If we cannot illumire the world, we can bright-| en the corner where we are—in our homes, at! {work or in social fellowship. Though the speck of star-dust never becomes any brighter, shine as it will, the radiance of the determined man or worgan who make the best of what they are and have, expands with practice, | ‘often into stardom. “How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a‘good deed in a naughty world.” MORE THAN YOU CAN CHEW You often wonder where to“draw the line on how much you undertake. Should you take on everything you are asked to do? Or should you learn to say “No”! when you have reached a rea-| sonable limit? So many demands are constantly made on your time and strength, that often it is a puzzle to know just what to do. and what not to do. It has frequently been observed by all of us, that it is the busy person who is always most in demand. Time after time, the same women wash the dishes~after the church dinner. The same men and women repeatedly are ‘put on committees in charge of “the arrangements.” When. somebody wants something done, he passes: up'a dozen idlers and‘ goes: to the busiest man he knows. This is flattering to the busy man: It signifies recognition. that he gets things. done. But it can be run into the ground, Everyone should know his limitations—both in work delegated to him and in enterprises started on his own initiative. Often we'can do more by doing less. i Not how much but how well should be the ideal. and it is seldom our duty: to undertake more than we can do well. This rule should make it fairly’ easy to\determine our limitations. THE STILLMAN CASE Twenty years hence the two innocent children now involved in the Stillman divorce case will be pointed out in public and, if their ears are sharp, will'hear whispers behind their backs. No matter what the outcome of the Stillman case, no matter:what is proved or disproved, these two children will pay the price for their parents. They may develop into honorable and talented men, excellent citizens, but scandal will shadow them to their graves. .For scandal is'a tar that never washes entirely off.. This: is: both unfor- tunate and unfair to the children figuring in the Stillman scandal, but it is a fact.as hard as agate, a fact that can’t be dodged. In the Stillman'casé there is a mighty lesson and @ grave warning for all fathers and mothers. . The! lesson is this—that the sins of the parents are vis- ited upon the children, even unto the third and fourth generations. | A child may be born into poverty—which can be overcome. He may be handicapped by ill health—through, no fault of his parents. But the child who starts life with: a stigma ishadowing! . his name is denied his rightful heritage. Mothers and fathers, guard well your\good name} and character, lest your child. in latet years de- servedly turn on you the accusing finger. : ——— .s YOUR JOB—AND FOREIGN TRADE — You know a lot of men who are, out of work. Possibly you are one of them. You pick up.a pa- per and read where some business giant says’un- employment is due largely to the falling off of the enormous foreign trade built up by the United States during the war. That business: giant is Jooking at the situation cross-eyed. He hasn’t jwised up to the great Foreign Trade Hoax. As a matter of fact, the huge wartime increase}, in, our exports was im values or prices, not in ac-' tual amounts of goods shipped abroad: Take the! Atti year, 1920. vines it with a normal ear: ” 1920 Exports «.. «+ $8,228,000,000 * 1913 Exports ... 2,484,018,292 According to the: above figures, America’s ex- Horts last year were nearly three and a half times es big as 1913, : t Matter. ils * for creed in th of all news creditéd to it or not otherwise! But think. of it in terms of actual shipments— bushels. of wheat,. tons. of steel,..etc.—and 1920 |exports really were only ‘16 per cent greater than \in 1918, That’s' the calculation of the ‘Boston| |News Bureau, financial paper.’ Other experts put! the increase as low as 6 per cent. | To get the idea in simple terms: Suppose al 'farmer before the war sold 100 eggs for $2.50. In: |1920 he sold 116 eggs for $8.20. He got more | money, but he sold about the same number of| eggs. That’s Uncle Sam’s plight when he forgets/ the price hoax and thinks of his foreign trade in quantities instead of ‘inflated values. j In many items, exports actually. were less in (1920 than in 1913, despite bigger money volume. ! For instafice, the story of cotton exports: p 1920 value . .. $1,136,408,916 | 1913 value... . $ 575,488,090 | 1920 (bales) . 6159132 |. 1918 (bales) 8,609,488 There was similar decrease, during. 1920, of ex-| \plank boards. : | | American business meh’ will not get out of the! |woods until they again think of business:in terms, of actual: commodities instead of inflated values. | AFTER THE HONEYMOON: “Gone are the good old days when John and Mary) went: bravely to the altar and plighted their troth | in-the fact of the fact that their sole capital con- | \sisted of a few silver dollars, two strong’ bodies, | four willing hands and two hearts tat’ beat as oné.’ In the little cot by the side ®f the road were'a, rude table, two chairs, a‘ stove, a bed and a few, {stone china dishes. +3 That was all; ail except the abounding. joy of! _|their young hearts ,which made the cot a palace, and John and Mary king’ and queen of their ‘sac: |red domain. |. They. expected to share each: others’ burdens; jand they did. They expected hardships, and they. (had them. They expected joy, and they found it: They expected: success ard it came. | ~ And with success came a looking back to the old days of mutual toil and sacrifice as the Rap-| piest days of their lives. H Now all this is changed. John must have a car and Mary must wear a solitaire. The cot by the side of the road must be & modern bungalow with! father’s: cession often robs life of its sinmple joys. Mary’s demands irritate John. John’s ‘inability to meet them irritates Mary. Clashes. become:more and becomes a painful tragedy. back to the old ways of'simplitity and honest con- tent. But an emulation of the spirit of simplicity that characterized the’ old. dalys' would work won-| ders -towards restoring life to @ ‘more normal plane. © The outcome of it all is the income.
