COOLIDGE IS RIGHT President Coolidge has effectively disposed of the su gestion made by Sir Josiah Stamp before the congr the International Chamber of Commerce that the States curtail production and lower tariff walls so as to help Germany pay the reparations. His idea is to throw open American markets to European goods and shut down Amer- ican industries until Germany or other foreign nations can secure enough business here to pay off their war debts. This in effect means that the United States would pay a considerable portion of the war debt. The sug- gestion, too, that the United States cancel the war debts of other nations to this nation was promptly rejected by Pres- ident Coolidge. It is not the intention of the United States to aid in the restoration of Europe through the adoption of a program that would break down the economic structure on this side of the Atlantic. That is more than any Euro- pean should ask. nation will assist in every legitimate way to aid in the res. toration of Europe, but not by canceling war debts or mod! fying tariff laws.

Traditions and fables spring up about the names ot men who have just died after a period of obscurity following great prominence. And because there is great tradi- tion about the name of “Honest John” Kelly it is generally supposed that he has long since passed on to his fathers. But “Honest John” is still very much alive. You may see him almost any late afternoon in front of the bank at Forty-first street and Broadway. He stands there silently meditating upon the scenes of bygone years. “Honest John” once was the most widely known gambler in the coun- try. He ran a gambling resort in a brownstone front on Forty-sixth street which has just been torn down to make room tor an Al Woods the- ater.

But J. Pierpont Morgan and his clients are not gulls. They at least think ithere is a difference. The difference, doubtless, is between a loan for construc- |tion and for destruction. There may be no “moral” differ- ence in the obligations to pay. But there is a great practical | difference in the likelihood of payment. A constructive debt jpays itself. It is invested in things that produce “the ;wherewith” to pay it. A destructive debt produces less {than nothing. It must be paid by subtracting from the ‘subsequent -product of lessened industry, after its destruc- 'tion is done. If you loan money to two men, one of whom uses it to build a new factory, while the other, in delirium, burns up his old factory and the money, they may both be still equally obligated, morally, to repay. But which note will the bank discount? Take Plenty of Food If Visit South Seas “There is a difference between romance and reality. | Robinson Crusoe, in the book, might live for years on the resources of what Defoe thought a tropical island would be like; but the survivors of the Chilean schooner Falcon, after a year marooned on a South Sea islet, found it a much severer ordeal. Don’t sigh, in your disillusioned moods, for a “South Sea island of your own.” The only ones of them that are fertile are the high volcanic ones, and these, if they are large enough to have water, are too inhabited and developed for your dreamy hermit- age. The smaller coral atolls, fairy-like as they look with their cocoanut- fringe of the horizon, are among the meagerest living places on earth. Almost nothing grows but cocoanut and screw palm pandanus. The soil is limestone pebbles. There are few birds, perhaps some bats, and no land animals. Many of the rainbow-hued fish swarming in the lagoon are poison- ous.

Yes, it is true, my dears. I hope to get my fortune through a balloon.’ And as this balloon knows where the pot of gold is at the toot of the rainbow, I am sure it is the one I am seeking. When it reached the ‘earth it bounced four times and they say that everywhere it touched there is a pot of gold. The fourth bounce took it to the house of. Twelve Toes, the Sorcerer, and he guards it like a dragon. If you can get it for me, I shall give you the key you are seeking—the key to the jsecret cupboard in Pixie Cave.” “We'll go right now,” said Nick. “Come along, Nancy. “There are three things you must watch out for,” said the Sour-Old- Woman, “even if you do get the balloon.

The sun is hung high in the heav- ens where there is no danger of it shining directly in the eyes. Instead of a tiny intense light near at hand, which always tends to con- ,tract the pupil of the eye, and de- crease the illumination on the retina, Nature has given us a sun several times larger than the earth so that the light will be diffused, tending to open the retina of the eye snd increasing the illumination.
