(Officia} City, State and County Newspaper) WHERE HAPPINESS LIES It’s a fine thing to have ambition. To make sue- cess your goal and devote all your time to fighting for it is very praiseworthy. But first of all, it’s a good thing to know just what Buccess is. In a certain office we know of there works a man well on in his fifties. He has a subordinate position; he fills it well enough, but he never will be promoted. He draws a salary of perhaps $40 or $45 a week, and lives with his wife in a modest apartment in a not-too- exclusive part of town. There are in that office several young men, young enough to be his sons, who outrank him and draw higher pay than he gets. They have a god deal of secret pity for him. They are headed for success, money and influence, while he will always be an under- ling; and they feel that it must be very hard for him to have to recognize his own mediocrity. Perhaps it is. But one evening one of the bright young men went to dinner at the older man’s house; and after that he didn’t pity him or look down on him any’ more. The apartment was very modest—but it was a real fiome. The man’s middle-aged wife, her hair slightly gray, was a cordial and gracious hostess. There was @ good dinner, and then there was a quiet, peaceful evening around the fireplace. And, sitting there, the young man forgot that his elderly friend was a failure. They talked about a good many things; about life, and happiness, and ambition, and achievement, and love; and it became evident that the older man had seen through the shams and pretenses with which the world deludes most of us, and had found some deep, underly- ing secret on which he had been able to build happiness and contentment. For the ageing couple felt neither discouraged nor defeated. They had a home, with a cozy living room, a warm fire and many books; they had each other; and they had an experience of life from which they had érawn strength and wisdom. And the young man, who uscd to look down condescendingly on the other, found h'mself hoping that when he reached his fifties he could be as serene, as untroubled and as unafraid as the elorly failure. The older man, you see, was a success, after all. There is more than one kind of success in this world. To make moncy and achieve power is one kind; to know life, find loving companionship and gain contentment is another. And this latter kind can be far more satis- fying than the other. APPRECIATION OF NATURE It was only a few years ago that the people of the Unjted States were living in close, everyday communion with the birds, wild flowers and other wild life. That wag before Americans became predominantly city dwellers and before the little wild things had been crowded into a few isolated corners of the country, if not exterminated or nearly so, But with the massing of a large proportion of the population in cities and towns has come a keener appreciation of the simple joys of nature, of which so many have been deprived by conditions of modern life. Few find the commonplace interesting, but the stranger is a curiosity to all. This applizs to man’s relgtions with the wild flowers and creatures of forest and field. When the country was full of wild life, man thought of it only as a source of food supply. Now that he must observe carefully and often travel long distances to catch a glimpse of many species formerly plentiful, man is deeply interested in their life and Kabits. Humanity long believed all birds were parasites and of no good to man until many of the most valuable winged creatures were extinct, Where there were once laws forcing farmers to kill a certain number of birds a year and offering bounties for sll birds slaughtered, there are today laws prohibiting the killing of many different kinds of birds, There was a time when the United States was a + veritable fairyland of wild flowers, but today so de- structive has been the progress of commerce and agriculture and so zealous have been the vandals that state legislatures have found it expedient to forbid the picking of wild flowers along public highways and to;was due to unwillingness outlaw the taking of plants, their leaves or blossoms, whether cultivated or in the wild state, from private or public lands. Bismarck Tribune Company, Bis- OIT 7 seek for meaning and design in the complex pattern of which we are a part. Without some firm faith and confidence in a purpose to life we are still in the shadow of tragedy—the tragedy of finding our labors and ideals a mockery and our life itself a jest. Arthur Conan Doyle have joined them. The Unknown Soldier, they say is too revered a national character to be put in a play. Given reverent, intelligent treatment, it is hard to see why such a theme should give offense. To be sure, it is possible that the Unknown Soldier might have some rather caustic things to say about the way Eng- land's diplomats and Jeaders have manhandled th8 ideals for which he died. It might be quite discomforting to hear a message from him. Is someone in London, perhaps, stirring up these protests with that in mind? TO CROSS WITH DIGNITY A national committee which takes as its task the study of the pedestrian problem in relation to vehicu- lar traffic seems to have got the thing down to a suit- able formula. It prescribes that the pedestrian shall] be afforded a safe and “dignified” crossing. This certainly touches the spot, for one of the causes of abiding bitterness in the heart of the pedestrian is the hop, skip and jump with which he has to pile himself across a street to avoid cars making a corner turn or merely to escape the ordinary perils of straight- way traffic. The sudden start, and momentary alarm; the grand rush of ignominy towards the sidewalks when the signal changes with the pedestrians scattered along the crossing; all these things and more the pedestrian sees personified in the motor vehicle and its driver, The word “dignified” is good. The pedestrian must not go to sleep on the crossing, but at the least he should be permitted a safe and dignified progress. PRODUCING MODEL A Dispatches from Detroit report that production of the Model A Ford car is now slightly above 5,500 a day, and still going up. Simultaneously, it is stated that Chevrolet is now making 5,300 cars daily. The average reader, no doubt, secs all of this in terms of a great race, or battle, between Ford and General Motors, with overtoyes of clinking cash registers as the enormous profits are gathered in. Actually, how- ever, its significance is something quite different, Here are upwards of 10,000 automobiles being made daily for the American public. They are excellent cars—good looking, reliable, sturdy low-priced. They will serve to bring freedom of movement to countless Americans. The rivalry between two industrial giants, with the attendant vast profits, is not the important thing. The important thing is the rate at which the motorization of America is being continued. | Editorial Comment | WAGE-EARNING WIVES (New York Herald-Tribune) “Setting back the hards of the clock” is a mild char- tion of the tentative decision of the Long Island r to discharge all the married women ai its employes. Such discrimination ia,'a relic of 4 day—now decidedly on the wane—when the cry “Wom- en’s place is in the home” raised a popular echo. Not only has the sex as a whole intrenched itself in office and shop, but its members have gained the right to be considered on their merits as individuals, with the This is not to say that marriage bearing and rearing of children, eir problems e# wage earners. But that should be considered their own affair. So long as married women live up to the standard of service required of other workers similarly employed, they should be en- gaged and promoted without regard to their domestic status. Any other procedure is hcund to confuse end retard socicty’s adaptation to the industrial dispen- sation. ’ The initiative in the ease of the Long Island’s con- templated action seems to have come from the clerks’ association of the railroad, which implies that one of the motives behind it is ths jeclousy of wage-carning competitors. This is nothing new. Single women who have to support themselves, and men with dependent families, resent having to bid against those who can afford to work for less because they are merely con- tributing to the family income, But their attitude in this respect is quite as shortsighted es thet of organized labor when it fought the introduction of Iabor-saving machinery, The utifizetion pf all available labor, though it may depress the wage scale here and there temporarily, adds in the long run to the general wealth and thereby promotes employment and increases wages. Social adjustment to the industria) order is still at- tended wit! But this will be ,neither lightened such reactionary resistance as that e, and sepecially, the does not complicate in, nor shortened 4 by which the Long Island railroad has in mind. ENFORCING TRAFFIC LAWS (New York Times) The only way to command respect for traffic law: is to enforce them without fear or favor. Swift pun- ishment should follow violations. ‘Yet in fact there are in yd, mmunities persons who have a “pull” with the police, or the mayor, or an influential politician, and who pay no fines when served with a notice to appear in court to er a charge of fast driving, or of disregarding signals, or of failing to sy Ae Tight of way.
