MEMBER AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATION (Established 1873) THE STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Official City, State and County Newspaper) to the people. political ends magazine entitled: These truly are words of wisdom: “Politics needs a better underpinning of facts. needs more laboratory workers and fewer logrollers.” One student of public affairs has stated that it is not safe to go on indefinitely with the theory of government in the hands of scholars” who have knowledge, but no power, and the practice of government in the hands of politicians who have power but no knowledge.” The solution really is to bring knowledge and power in some kind of a working arrangement that will be beneficial WHAT POLITICS NEEDS of the German Empire.” Glenn Frank, the militant editor of The Century Maga- zine, has contributed some new ideas to the need of revamp- ing our conception of politics in a recent article in that “State Universities in State Politics.” Politics In Wisconsin, Robert M. LaFollette sought to make the University of that state a laboratory. for political ideas, but ! the political mind and the scientific mind clashed and the result was the creation within the University of a powerful political machine from the effects of which the institution ~—has never quite recovered. As desirable as a working arrangement between the uni- versity and state government is, it is hard to harness the two for effective work because the ideals of the student and the ambitions of the politicians clash. Mr. Frank has well stated the case. “The scientific mind thinks from facts to policy; the political mind thinks from policy to facts. The scientific mind is sublimely indifferent to such catch words and labels as ‘conservatism,’ or ‘liberalism, or ‘radicalism.’ The politi- cal mind lives in terror of labels. far from smooth sailing for the professor when he leaves his class-room and journeys to the state capital to serve the|come a chorus girl.

Mr. Frank resents political interference with the adminis- tration of state educational institutions. “I think,” he says, “that we cannot afford to let our state governments run away with our state universities. intimately political domination of our state universities will in time, produce in America a ‘reptile university’ to serve current political ends as Bismarck’s ‘reptile press’ served the Obviously all this means A too But he suggests a plan by which the state can use the knowledge of the university by cooperation. “A really great governor,” he remarks, “or a really great university president can, in any given State, go far towards =-.driving the knowledge of the university and the power of the State abreast.” MAKING RELIGION ATTRACTIVE When Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick, the Baptist minister serving a Presbyterian church, preached his farewell ser-|throp Ames. mon to the congregation of the First Presbyterian church of New York, the New York Times, in its news columns reported the interest in the services in these words: “The congregation was the largest ever admitted to First Church. Every seat was taken, and more people were al- lowed to stand than ever before. The church proper has pew room for 1,008, so that more than 700 either sat in the two |ive. chapels or stood. More than 500 persons were turned away from the doors unable to get in. “People began to gather in front of the church as early as 9 o’clock. Never since Dr. Fosdick’s ministry began had there been a larger crowd in front of the church at one time. | with great drays pulled by horses. Hundreds stood patiently in the drizzle of rain waiting for the doors to open.” The fact that the Baptist minister was being forced from the Presbyterian pulpit because the General Assembly de- creed that he, ordained a Baptist, must become a regularized Presbyterian minister or he had “no place in a Presbyterian pulpit.” Be that as it may, the fact is that this minister under the rather unusual auspices denominationally speaking for more than five years as associate pastor served the church effectively, spoke to crowded houses and contributed much to the good of the community. ... Regardless of dogma, theology or creed the people wanted He had a virile message and at his going to use a phrase of the New York Times, “a great wave of re- to hear him. ligious emotion swept over the crowded congregation.

Never mind about me. men struggled to hide their feelings.” Aside from the theological issues involved with which this editorial is not concerned, the occasion of Dr. Fosdick’s departure from the Presbyterian church is a most dramatic period in American Protestant church history. _ Whatever one’s religious convictions may be the closing _ sentences of Rev. Fosdick’s farewell sermon show a breadth ivf feeling and a deep conception of his ministerial calling: i. “I do not want to leave any personal partisans behind Leadership is not true leadership that draws pedple It must draw them past the leader to the All my enemies have done is problems.

It wag only fifty years ago that iron ore was discovered in St. Louis county, and no one at that time or for several years later, had any adequate idea of the great amount of wealth thus represent- ed. Without this «'scovery St. Louis county would have been siow in de- veloping. The iron mines created progressive citi which in the short time of their birth have been marvels in their rapid develop- ment.

ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON As Nancy and Nick hid in the dish of fruit on the king’s table in Bean- stalk Land, and ister Whizz, the fairyman hid in a tulip in the center of the same table, their sharp eyes were busy. They saw Snitcher Snatch, the lit- tle goblin (hiding in the folds of gold lace in the queen’s collar, he was) take out the snuff box he had stolen, and blow snuff yp the jueen’s nose: And when the queen sneezed and the soup flew all over everything and there was such a general fuss about it getting into the king’s eyes, they decided it-was a good time to get away. They had another reason for wish- ing to get out of that. When the queen sneezed, the little goblin flew over the butler’s head, straight out of the window, snuff box “Quick, or he'll get -a Mister Whizz as they cli he table cloth and rushed for the oor.

Le‘ter From Nurse Anderson to Mr. John Alden Prescott My Dear Mr. Prescott: I think I should inform you of something that is happening here. A man by ° the name of Orson Gibson is paying a great deal of attention to your moth- er. This man seems very much of a gentleman. He probably is about e evidently is a “staunch church mem- ber, and your mother and he go to church every Sunday morning and every Wednesday evening. They are both very much opposed to dancing and cards,. but after much consultation they decided they would go to see a moving picture depicting the life of Lincoln.’ After that it was an easy jump to the Ten Commandments, which hey have concluded tells a great moral lesson. They have been going now for some weeks almost every afternoon and it is rather laughable to see that they are not talking ag much about great moral lessons as they are about good acting and good entertainment. Perhaps, Mr. Prescott, you had better write your mother and ask her about this man, or better still, come over here yourself. I don't want to take on the responsibility of this growing intimacy.

YEARS By NEA Service Vienna, April 25.—The amazing adventure of a Russian soldier who was accidentally imprisoned fdr eight years in the cellar of a ruined’ food depot near Viina was revealed by workmen breaking up the ruins of the building. He was entombed in the cellar when the depot was blowa up hur- riedly by the czar’s troops in 1917 He was found alive in an indescriba- ble state of dirt, with hair reaching to his waist.

JUDGE LINDSEY IS A NATIONAL ASSET Judge Lindsey may, like other prophets, be without honor among a part of the people in his own country. From the closeness of the election, it would seem so. But the rest of the country at least, as well as half of his own people, will rejoice that the recount leaves him in office, even by a close margin. The man who made the juvenile court popular, and who, more than any other person, taught the rest of us that juvenile wrong- doing is_a human problem, to be handied humanly, is a national as- 5 et. It would be a national disappoint- ment if he were to be sacrificed to a local quarrel, even if half the lo- {eal people are on the other side of that quarrel.

UNION VICTORY IS EQUALLY AS FUTILE ‘The supreme court also set aside, in effect, the Kansas industrial court law; which is a_ “union vic- tory” equally futile. Doubtless the court was right. Its duty is to interpret the constitution, and the purpose of the constitution was to protect certain liberties of the in- dividual, which the eighteenth cen- tury thought precious, against even all the people. Now that the cbl- lectivist. twentieth century has ar- rived, these eighteenth century dividualisms may be anachronisms, but they are the law, and if that law is to be changed, it is not for the courts to do it. i OUR LAWS PROVE MISFITS IN CENTURY OF FACT In the century that made Yaw, government was a public and business a private function. Eco- nomic changes have since reversed the facts, but not-our legal theories of them. Juristic casuistry has managed to find a fiction by which to fit the an< cient legal theory to the modern economic fact in the case of “public utilities” which have been defined as “affected with a public interest.” This Kansas law was an attempt to extend the same principle to the problem of industrial peace and the uninterrupted operation of the es- sential ‘processes of modern life. But this was: beyond the old definition, and it cannot be done. Because, in the eighteenth century it was vital to protect the individual in the right to cut his own fuel and draw his own water, unhampered by law, it now becomes logically neces- sarv to deprive modern communities of the right, by law, to assure them- selves a continuous supply of fuel our serve Z and water, It is a “great victory” for the!

FABLES ON HEALTH * LACK OF BLOOD CAUSES FAINTIN tities ata acc eee demic a | Many have an incorrect idea of the cause of fainting, Mrs. Jones learned. Fainting is caused by a Jack of blood flow to the brain, instead of too much. It is because the brain is not getting the proper supply of blood that patients are placed in a lying position with the head lower than the feet. The sitting position is very dan- gerous. People have died simply be- cause the head was not lower than the feet. Often it.is advisable to let the head hang over the side of a couch or a bed for a few minutes.
