Youth is the most glorious period. In old age you will look back to it as a mystic fairyland. And ae it is a very practical fairyland, for youth is training ime. .You are going to school for this definite purpose — to train yourself for making a living after you graduate. The kind of living you will make in maturity is largely deter- mined in school days. The foundation of failure or success is almost without exception based on the training the brain gets in school. Study hard and you will be rewarded later. The world that you will graduate into will be a very Wifferent world than the one entered by your father when he completed his schooling. Each year the intellect plays ‘a greater part in daily life. So neglect no opportunity to develop your brains. You children are the re-enforcements training to take :the place of the grown-ups who now run the world’s affairs. ‘Whether you will do a better job than father’s generation— :whether making a living will be difficult work or easy pleas- ure—these depend on school days. More than 20 millions -of children are answering the school bell after vacation. A mighty army. Study hard to become one of its leaders later. SONS OF TOIL Nothing is wealth until it receives the magic touch of Human Labor. Labor alone can bring bread from a handful of seed. From the soil also come brick, wood, concrete and steel, products of labor. And even these articles are of little; use or value until labor combines them into buildings. .. Even the diamond is unattractive and as good as worth- * ess nntil skilled labor brings forth its sparkle. _ Everything we call necessities and luxuries is the fruit of , Editorial Review Comments reproduced in this column may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune. They are presented here in order that our readers may have both sides of important issues which are being discussed in the press of the day. THE RETORT COURTEOUS (New York Times) As the campaign begins to be- gin, those who cling to the ameni- | ties of political discussion will hope that a Montanian example of | restraint and understanding may { be followed. Mr. Byran Cooney | of Butte is a candidate for the; nomination for Representative of | the First Montana District. He {s/ a Wet, without mitigation or re-| morse. If he ts nominated and elected, he wjll set himself to the simple task of repealing the Vol- sent him a questionnaire accom- panied with some remarks which Mr. Cooney regards as threats of retaliation. In his reply he con- siders these threats as violation of the Corrupt Practices law. Bot he hesitates to “endanger” the Super- intendent by taking them too seri- onsly. He reminds him that he had a little interchange of compil- ments with ais predecessor. Won't his questioner be good enough to look up his files and read the record: From this you may gather that vou are not stalking a typical political boat ‘but are on the hot trail of a very hos- tile and bristling political porcupine. The porcupine, however, will be very discreet in the distribution of his quill In view of the fact that I intend giving a copy of this y to the press, my letter be tempered by courtesy, which to a large extent im- pedes the vehemence of my utterance and deletes the in- tensity of my _ sentiments. However, candor demands that T must confess entertaining for your bludgeoning organ- ization the most profound pity pna contempt. IT trust you will not consider me unduly ungracious when I say that the insolence of your assumption to question’ me occasions in me a snirit of antagonism and hostility of which words per- mitted by journalistic ethics are only a feeble echo. Unlike some of your candidates, friends who drink liquor and vote dry and who evade the prohibition question as not good campaign voll I have made my attitud known through page “ads” in every weekly newspaper from Eureka to Lima, from Bel- grade to Troy, so that “he Human Labor. Carpets, furniture, houses, autos, radio, food —so on into thousands upon thousands of commodities—all these are labor’s creations. | = There is no wealth, no usefulness, no worth-while achieve- Ment except by toil. Labor is the force that creates civilization from the dust. It is well that one day of the year is set aside as Labor Day. On this day the whole nation pays tribute to its greatest force, its greatest natural resource, without which we would be no better off than the monkeys. Hats off to labor—skilled, unskilled, brawn or brain. SHORT-CIRCUIT “It will not be possible for a long, long time to ‘put a nation into the war’ by propaganda—to ‘sell America the war’.” Robert Herrick writes in Survey Graphic. He is too optimistic. The people have nothing to say about whether or not they will go to war. We have democ- racy—except when we need it most—when war impends. How about a referendum before declaring war—or, at least, the Australian system of a referendum on the draft? ELIXIR The long-sought elixir for perpetual life has been found, announces Professor Julian Huxley of England. Wait a minute. So far, the discovery can only be used in making flat-worms “live forever.” Possibly it will lead—though improbably-—to a way of prolonging human life for 50 or more years beyond normal th age. But not for long. Nature would invent new : of killing us off. We have to leave the stage of life to make room for the next generations. RUSS For the 104th year Russia holds its big annual fair at Nizhni-Novgorod. This year’s exhibition is expected to sell 225 million dollars worth of goods. Neither America nor any leading European country has exhibits. The fair goes on, nevertheless, big-scale. Participants are China, India, Persia, etc. Russia, by isolation, is being driven to trade alliances with Asiatics. Military alliances would be the logical out- come. SEX Whether it’ll ever be useful knowledge Here is magic. Professor Huxley changes the sex or not, no one knows. of guinea pigs, turning male into female and vice versa. He does it, yet cannot understand it—any more, he says, than he can figure out what makes an elephant or any other ani- mal grow to a certain size and then stop instead of continu- ing until it’s as big as a mountain at death. COAL Have you bought your winter supply of coal? Railroads have 170,000 surplus coal cars idle and accumulating rust on side-tracks. As usual. only more so than ordinarily, the public is delaying its coal buying until the last minute. When the rush comes, prices skyrocket—even though only about a tenth of the total output of soft coal mines is burned in the homes. SECRETED : Do you believe that only one American family in every four has an income of $1000 or more a year?

After I won't have to visit my friends. I can spend the rest of my vacation at the seashore. And you Twins can come along.” “And I'll have enough money to buy bones fer a year,” barked Toby. “And I'll have enough money to pay my board in # nice grassy field in the country,” whinnied Prince. “I think circuses are grand!” “But 1 ven't counted all the money yet,” said Nick. “Here are some more nickels and dimes.” And he went on—‘Forty, forty-five, fifty, sixty, seventy-five, a dollar!” y goodnes id Weeny. “I'll ly have enough money to live at the finest hotel, but I'll have six meals a day instead of three, and a pink silk cover on my bed. And you Twins shall have the finest things in the land, an automobile with balloon tires, and everything.” “And I'll have enough money to buy roast beef instead of bones, barked Tob; | “And I'll have enough money to board in a clover field,” whinnied Prince, I don’t know what Weeny would have planned to do next, or Toby, or Prince either, for just then Mister Pigeon, the letter r. flew down and settled on a nearby tree. “Does Mister W.

And he tor one out of the mail bag he carried under his wing. “Where are my specs?” Weeny. “Nancy, please get out of my satchel.” So he put on his specs and read his letter out loud. It went “Dear Weeny: “Your vacation has lasted long enough. It's time for you to come home now and get new shoes for school. It starts next week. | B sides, you have to go to the dentist's to see if your teeth need filling. “Your Loving Mother.” “You can have all my share of the money, Twins,” said Weeny. “I guess I gotta go.” “And you can have all my share, too,” said Toby. “When I come to think of it, I have a good kind mas- ter and he gives me all I can eat.” “So have I,” said Prince. “You can have my _ share, ‘too.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1924 WHICH RACEJS SUPERIOR? _, By Albert Apple Most of the big wars for centuries have been business clashes or conflicts of political systems such as democracy arraying itself against monarchy. 3 The world hasn’t had a real racial war since the Chinese and Mohammedan invasions of Europe. But the next big war may be a collision of races. So runs the talk in scientific circles. . * & A thousand years ago the white race ruled only part of | Europe. Now the whites rule eight-ninths of the habitable world, though they form only a third of the world’s popu- lation. } But the various colored races are multiplying rapidly. |The white race, despite its near-suicide in the World War, and despite the spread of birth control, is increasing though not nearly as: fast as blacks, yellows and browns. : “Increased inequality in numbers means, in a democratic age, an inevitable transfer of power,” warns Professor J. W. | Gregory. 8 ® Which is the superior race? Every race steps forward jand answers, “We are.” Truth is, it depends on the date. ' Chinese had a great civilization when Europeans were wear- ing wild animal skins and hunting with a club. i Right now the whites unquestionably are superior — in wealth, invention, arts and sciences. Time may change our standing. All civilizations decay, as surely as petals fall from the blooming rose. * Felix von Luschan in his latest book writes: ‘The differ- ences between races, especially those regarding intellectual and moral qualities, are by no means as great as the differ- ences between single individuals belonging to the same race. . . . There are no inferior races, but each race has its in- ferior individuals.” He might have added that the “inferior individuals” fre- quently are decidedly in the majority. * * * The main difference between races is that théy are in different stages of evolution, just as the habitual criminal is thousands of years behind the average law-abiding citizen, in evolution: He belongs back in the Stone Age.

They are known technically as deciduous teeth. They arrive about the fourth month of a baby’s life, or there- abouts. They should be shed be- tween the age of 6 and 12 years. There are a great many people who attach little importance to them. Oh, they'll lose them, any- tant: The period of most growth with a child is the period in which the deciduous teeth are used.
