For the ardent “progres- sive” in Great Britain departed from the accepted tenents of government and cast his lot in with the ultra-radicals, to make possible the first Labor government. The result has en that because the great majority of people of Great Brit- 1 are anti-radical they cast their lot with the Conservatives ind returned them to power with such a majority that they ex vemain in office five years without being unseated. Doubtless thousands upon thousands of British voters did not like to vote for the Tory party, but since the Liberal party was being crushed between the Labor Party and the Con- ive Party, they chose the latter in preference to social- The British election result should cause an ardent “progressive” in the United States, who believes in the present form of government but is not a socialist or an “anti-radical,” {o pause and consider whither the Third Party movement would lead to in this country.

Labor has had champions in all parties in the United States ,as it had in the Liberal party, in particular in Great Britain. The labor movement made great progress in Great Britain; it has made greater progress in the United States. Every party in the past has boasted of labor legislation and sought But it is probable that the Conservatives in England will refuse to seek the labor vote, and will feel no Just such a situa- ticn might arise in this country if the Third party movement is carried forward to a degree where it embraces all the forces of discontent and rises to power. WITCH’S NIGHT Nearly 2000 years ago, youth was joyously and impishly celebrating Hallowe’en. It is one of our oldest institutions, a link connecting us with the weird superstitions of long ago. No longer do we actually believe in witches and maraud- ing demons—but once a year we are pleased to imagine we do, Yo our ancient ancestors, the witches and demons and real. The shadow of those bar- baric days falls over us on Hallowe’en. Study the customs of this “night of mischief” and you are transported back to the time which, while barbaric, was romantic and adventur- We have lost a lot of the joys of life by being disillusioned as to the reality of such mystic characters as witches. > BREAD Do'you eat home-made bread? Five years ago, 70 out of cvery 100 housewives baked their own bread. Now the figure is only 25 in 100. Figures furnished by National As- sociation of Bakers, who are delighted with the enormous jum in their business. Bread is joining pies. cakes and other home-made foods whose aromas and fragrance used to float from the kitchen. iy Nor do housewives make jellies, preserved fruits and relishes as in the old days. We are headed either toward the tin can or municipal kitchen. WOMEN IN BUSINESS ~About two million American women have industrial jobs. * Saleswomen total around 360,000. Over 250,000 women are farm owners or tenants. Over 31,000 women are artists, including almost 15,000 sculptors. There are over 4200 women bankers, 7200 women physicians and surgeons, 2500 - women lawyers and more than 13,000 actresses. All these, however, are but a fraction of the women em- ployed in the original “infant industry”—motherhood. Home still is the lure for an overwhelming majority. DEBT Uncle Sam expects to pay off the entire national debt (about 21,500 million dollars) within 25 years. ia Right now it costs taxpayers about 1000 million dollars @ year to pay the interest on Liberty and other bonds that represent this debt. © , : = Some years after the debt is retired, taxpayers’ purses ‘will be about ripe for another big war. That’s history. Ae Prayers are answered more frequently if people get on *..gheir toes immediately after getting on their knees.

Loves of those born this day are just what they are made. Loving, a good wife and mother, an exceptionally clever and ener. getic person, or one who is not true, even to himself. Persons born this day are destined for happy lives filled with great things, unless they permit them- selves to fall by refusing to admit certain faults and correcting them. To see clearly and to weigh faith- fully problems of life is needed. Charm and magnetism can be cul- , tivated, but it must be guarded or the person will fall into mediocrity, a bore unable to keep pace with the good things of life. Why I Am For Calvin Coolidge By Henry Ford First let me state that this advertisement is written, inserted and paid for by me to explain my support of Calvin Coolidge for President. Coolidge. out of employment, does not favor Calvin Coolidge is supported by Amer- ican business men because he under- I do not support him because he is a Republican any more than I supported Woodrow Wilson because he was a Democrat. I support Mr. Coolidge be- cause he is the kind of man that the politicians do not want; they cannot handle him. I support him because he thinks more of the People than the party. He is an able man facing a big job and is entitled to the help of all forward-look- ing mén. Power. ance of corporation favor. Much is said about throwing the election ~ Business. into Congress. Certain interests appar- ently hope to prevent the people from choosing their own President. Which- ever party or candidate might benefit from such a mishap, it would misrepre- sent the American nation. It would indicate that American opinion is not intelligent or firm enough to decide an election — and this is not the case. Americans are able to elect their own President; they are on guard against every effort to take this right from them. Personally I have no doubt that Calvin Coolidge will be decisively elected. “He is a man of personal honor and of- ficial courage. He springs from the stock that shaped America’s course, the stock that spread south and west, set- tling the country and planting liberty.” He can say No. He has said No where a vote-seeker would have said Yes. He said No to ill-considered raids on the na- tional treasury because he knew that to inflate the number of unearned dollars is one way to deflate the value of dollars, and so make the people poorer in pur- chasing power. He has refused to be the tool of any class. He has not served any special interest. Wall Street has found that he cannot be handled, and therefore it would favor throwing the election into a Congress which it could control. By Wall Street . I mean that section of the International Money Power operating in the United States. In the United States it is Wall Street. In London it is Lombard Street. In Paris it is the Place de la Bourse.
