Ifyou have the real stuff in you, you'll come to the top, college or no college. | The School: of Hard Knocks is the greatest col-) lege. | GRADE-CARDS You want your child to get good marks in! school. But don’t get discouraged: if the marks are low. Paul Ehrlich, in school, was a great failure. He made his worst botch at chemistry.

M: Taylor and Rebecca Brewer, of Blackey, Ken- tucky, have married a third time. Love passeth all understanding. Psychologists say love is the twin of hate, on the theory that extremes meet, hence even perfectly matched) couples have océasional spats. | “Would you like to get rid of your wife? Or husband? After a few weeks apart, you'd prob- ably change your mind. What married couples at loggedheads really need is a vacation from each other, not divorce. Daredevils form a suicide club in London, mem- bership limited to 13. Initiation includes driving a motorcycle through a plate glass window. Self-preservation is man’s first instinct. It’s a rare case where that instinct can be smothered by a craze for thrills. Nearly every one has passed through a danger big enough to admit him to the suicide club if the danger didn’t have to be premeditated. When con- versation lags, stir things up by asking: “What’s the narrowest escape you ever had from death?” WILLS By a will filed in Chicago, Ephraim Henry At- wood will forfeit $130,000 if he ever smokes a cigaret. His younger brother, Ivan will pay the same penalty if he ever drinks champagne. That’s bad for both. Since Adam and Eve, for- bidden fruit has had-a powerful lure. Many of us don’t want to do a thing until it’s prohibited—like the folks that never cared Yor liquor until the country went Volstead. RHINE | American soldiers on the Rhine dread the day | when they will have to come home. So do the Ger- mans, who owe us about $244,000,000 for mainte- nance of the Yankee military cops, but still are ‘able to stop dueling.” iwheat production record of 82 bushels an acre.

But there’s no argument at all against the necessity of public utilities . deflating with the manufacturer and the wage-earner, : GUNS President Harding, strong for limitation of armaments, doubts that complete disarmament ever will be possible.

Two centuries ago, men said, “They’ll never be But dueling has been stopped. So also will man | when he becomes civilized, stop war—dueling be- tween nations. The people, by refusing to-go to war, will stor it if the governments don’t. ° Seager Wheeler, Canada’s wheat wizard, gets | $30 a bushel for Early Triumph, his new variety | of seed wheat. It ripens 10 days earlier than any other wheat and yields 8 to 10 bushels more to the acre. That helps all farmers, by increasing their pos- sible profits. It also moves the wheat belt 100 miles farther north, putting millions of acres un- der cultivation. Wheeler, on his Saskatchewan farm, has a international expositions he has won the world’s championship five times. Men like Wheeler and Luther Burbank will be the outstanding figures of our time, when a really civilized posterity rewrites history and puts wars, kaisers and Fatty Arbuckles where they belong— on a back seat. ~ af The dinnerpail . will, be:the really important thing when the United States becomes as thickly populated as China. CONTRAST | That the terrible famine conditions that obtain in Russia are largely chargeable to the political, industrial and agricultural chaos and not the drouth, as soviet leaders would have the world believe, is shown by the current wheat production in France. France has suffered not less than Russia from rope. But in spite of the most adverse weather conditions in recent times, the French people are harvesting the largest wheat crop of any year since before the war. than the average pre-war crop. greatest grainaries! Plenty in France, notwithstanding the ruina- tion of hundreds of thosuands of acres of agricul- tural lands by the war. That is the difference between national and in- dividual sanity and industry, and national and in- dividual insanity and sloth. WHO BORROWS MOST? The events that send most people to the money lenders are the arrival of the stork and the empty coal bin, says a report issued by the Illinois asso- ciation of licensed lenders. Teachers seem to be harder up than any others, for they are the most persistent borrowers. Land- ladies come second, traveling sa'esmen third, then, in order, machinists, switchmen, stenographers and nurses. Only one in 70,000 loans is made to an undertaker. | Young folks, decidijg, what career to follow, earn, from the‘above, the lines of work where the shoe pinches tightest. 1 PROSPERITY the Federal Reserve Board, by member banks all over the country.

Besides, what’s a trifle like $244,000,-j 000 to a Germany that has agreed to pay an in-; demnity of $34,000,000,000 in bonds? DISARMNG Disarm entirely and completely abolish war, says a resolution adopted at the World’s Methodist | Conference, in London, representing 32,000,000) church-goers in many countries. | That's shooting at a higher target than the po-| litical.diplomats who will attend the disarmament | conference in Washington, which intends to go no further than limiting armies and navies. But it’s the target the people want—complete disarming. | Diplomats can start disarmament. Churches; and schools could finish the job. In time, they} will. DOWN In Chicago, which leads the country in compul-| sory reduction of living costs, the elevated rail-| roads and gas and telephone companies are ordered to “show cause why their rates should not be re- duced.” The command comes from the Illinois commerce) -Couldn’t be better news. What happens in the plowed:fields and plantations is what really counts. They lead, to . good times or bad, and the less im- portant element—cities—follow. WORK Forty-six out of every 100 inhabitants of Chi- cago work in “gainful occupations”—meaning for pay—says a census analysis. That includes every- one, from baby to grandpa. Compare that situation which probably is typical of most cities, with conditions 50 or even 25 years ago, when a woman in business was an exception. Every American seems to be reaching out for financial independence. The ancient job of “father and support of the family” is going to the museum. : BURDEN | Here’s an average family of five, living in New York.. How much of a tax burden does it have to carry? Five hundred and forty dollars a year— $250 for Uncle Sam, the rest in state and munici- pal taxes.

Mrs. Oberndorfer concludes “her articles with “The National Federation clubs is probably the most powerful and influential or- ganization of women in the United States. Its members, aroused by the news that congress would even deign to consider such an obvious destruc- tive measure, are keeping vigilant eyes on Washington as a precaution.” INSTITUTES SUIT FOR DAMAGES Lester L.

DUSTRY IN SOUTH FEATURE OF BIRMINGHAM CELEBRATION the college's new head, Dr. Guy E. Snavely, The pageant will be a record of Birmingham's remarkable industrial dovelopment. Its chief episode will show the mining of coal, iron ore and limestone within sight of the steel plants of the city, fabrication of plates for shipbuilding, their portation down the river to a subsid- iary of ‘Birmngham’s steel industry that builds great ocean liners, which in turn carry the city’s iron and; steel all over the world.

Where are you taking us?” You are not the fisherman, are you?” The Twins looked back and were surprised to find that they had ever so many creatures prisoners: in their net, shrimps, pawns, crabs and queer fish of all kinds. The person talking was the queer- est ever, a big flat fellow with a whip of a tail and two funny eyes on top of him. Really he was so odd Aooking that Nancy and Nick quite lost their voices with , aston- jishment and did not answer at once.
