CHICAGO YORK _ BOSTON The Ingredients of the Armistice ‘Throughout the length and breadth of America the tation today celebrates the twelfth anniversary of the of the World war. ibeiiaarck, as elsewhere in the United States, the eterans of that great conflict will march in parade ogether with other civic and patriotic organizations. ‘They will march before crowds to some of whom the aemory of war has grown dim. Others in the watching ssemblages, will be persons enjoying the full privileges f citizenry but who were too young to appreciate the all meaning of the conflict when it closed. ‘The marchers themselves will not have the same vivid scollections of war which were theirs when they re- arned, clad in the uniform of their country's service, rom their participation in the conflict. ‘Twelve years is nothing in the life of the ages but it ;@ long time in the life of an individual and much has appened since that long-ago day when the embattled ations threw down the sword after the most devastating eriod in the world’s history. But though their memories may have grown @ trifle im and mellow with the passage of the years, the vet- rans of the World war still retain a vivid picture of what ‘ar means. In their daily pursuits as respectable, hard- orking family men and citizens of the community, the Yorld war veterans are glad to think only occasionally f the war as a personal thing. Now, as when they ame back, many of them prefer to forget—if only they ould forget. ‘They step out today a trifle gray, many of them, and omewhat heavier about the middle but with the same onsciousness of duty to their country which inspired iem to achieve glorious victory on the battlefie!d. Communists may rave and rant. Pacifists may preach reir insidious doctrines, but the fact remains that, today 3 always, the fate of America rests in the hands of her ghting men. These were no peace-time soldiers, these en Who march in America today. For them war was ot a game to be played on paper, but a grim reality. hey know the ingredients of war. They know it to be a frightful thing and one to be voided by all honorable means. Young when they ‘ent to the front and full of the adventuresome spirit £ youth, many of them left home much the same as iey would have started for a picnic. When they returned it was in a different mood, tor ar, in addition to being a great leveler, is a great jucator. For them the ingredients of war were privation, suf- ‘ring, misery, dirt and mud, blood and death, lice and its in filthy trenches. For those who went but failed » return it meant anonymous death, for there was no «ividuality and little opportunity for heroism where aly chance selected those who should die and those ho should live and every man was a hero, a potential indidate for a soldier's grave. , The veterans of the World wer know this as they , arch and the thought fills them with a high resolve |, at, God willing, this nation shall do all in its power ) » prevent war in the future. They have sons now, | \ese men, and their hearts sicken at the thought of ' 1e brave boys of the next generation paying the price ; hich they were calld upon to give that American free- , om might be a reality rather than the cherished it’ emory of a downtrodden people. 4 i 4 ly But because war is an educating force which will not + denied and because they cannot be blind to present orld conditions, the World war veterans of America are 1animous in their demand that, until such time as every ation does likewise, this nation shall not supinely permit + 3 defenses to be cast into the discard. + ‘The old theory of “in time of peace prepare for war” * as been discarded but in its place has come the well- 4 ‘sed belief that common sense and experience call upon , 1¢ nation to prepare in all ways open to it to ade- rately defend itself so that peace may be maintained. } These men know that the last to be attacked is he no is prepared to wage effective combat. And so they and today as the strongest single force calling upon the U 2ople of America to do the things that will insure peace. All of these things, in so far as the men who fought ad survived are concerned, are part and parcel of Ar- istice day. In addition, there are other ingredients. ‘Thousands of men lie tonight on beds of pain, shat- tered in body, mind and nerves. Some of them are so badly off that they might better be dead, for the casualties of the great conflict still are with us. Women will sit tonight watching the sun fade into t the western sky and with quiet tears rolling down 1 their cheeks. They are the mothers and wives of the men who marched away—and who never came + back. + Children tonight will send prayers up to the ; eternal court questioning the justice of a war which \ stole from them their father. Thousands of white crosses, the Christian cross | mingled with the cross of Hakoah, stand tonight in | the white moonlight of American cemeteries in France. i | They give silent testimonial to the fact that the i spirit of sacrifice was a rampant thing in America f 12 years ago. All of these things are ingredients in the hellish | mpound which we call war and with which the world ito itself 12 years ago. ‘They are the real ingredients of Armistice day. this nation and the world heed the lessons which » war should have taught, the tears, the blood, the {fering shall not have been in vain.

The Plight of Freedom When Chief Justice Hughes remarked in Washington recently that the greatest difficulty in the American system of government today is the reconciliation of the interests of the community with the requirements of in- dividual liberty, he touched on an issue that is going to yecome more and more pressing as the years pass. It is an issue that doesn’t get a great deal of public ears fOT anunnane 2! oo attention, for it is a hard thing to dramatize.

But it lies back of an enormous amount of the present unrest and it will generate more in the future. To be sure, we get it occasionally in connection with prohibition. But prohibition, after all, is only ene phase of it. The field is a lot wider than that; the problem at all. Generations ago the requirements of individual liberty counted for nothing, except among a favored few at the very top. A man had what rights his sovereign gave him, and if he was wise he took them and tried to be satisfied. The state—meaning, generally, the king, or the diminutive but powerful ruling oligarchy—was su- preme. Then, with the American and French revolutions, came |the new idea. Individual liberty, instead of counting for | nothing, counted for everything. This was especially true in America. Some of the early colonists were even too jealous of their individual liberties to submit to taxa- tion. The looser a government was and the less it touched the life of the average citizen the better every- j one liked it. But while this new concept of the value of individual liberty was rising, a complicating element was coming in—the industrial revolution which began when the steam engine was made practical and which is still going on. It set up a current that swept directly against the growth of individual freedom. For the industrial revolution, concentrating population bringing every man into infinitely closer touch with his neighbors, made life ever so much more complicated than it had been before. Individual liberty, growing yearly more desirable, became yearly harder to attain. Consider the amount of governmental regulation with | which our lives have to be surrounded. It ranges from vast contrivances like the League of Nations down through government supervision of railroad rates and electric power combines to village laws against driving an automobile too fast or putting a radio loudsneaker on the sidewalk. It includes thousands of laws ond ordi- nances. Most of them are irksome—but they are absolute- ly necessary, although they could not have been neces- sary a century ago. So there is our problem, as Chief Justice Hughes points out. It is, perhaps, the knottiest problem of the day. It will not be settled, probably, for another century. Power Determines Farm Income The income of the modern farmer is determined, to a large degree, by the amount of mechanical power em- Ployed in his work, according to a recent’ survey by the American Research Foundation of Chicago. The survey analyzes the average farm income by states, In one state, with an average of only one horsepower per worker, the average crop value per worker is $475 a year. In another state, where each worker has the equivalent of 14.1 horsepower, the average income is $1,700. It is said that mechanical power will reduce labor about one- half, or double the speed of operation, Editorial] Comment Editorials printed below thought by other editors, show the trend of out regard to whsiher they agree ‘oF disagree with whether ey agree or oy ae witl The Tribune's policies. Roeie All Parades Outdone (Minneapolis Journal) Ras Tafari Makonon, Abyscinia’s ruler, is to be crowned Emperor Haile Setlassie I. That is why presidents and potentates, kings end what have you, are sending envoys to the porenatian, and wise globe trotters are concen- trating ther For Res ‘Tafert is taking up the spectacle business where Ringling brothers laid it down. He is putting on & parade that should make all the showmen of earth envious, In his rcalm, dating back to the original Geesers, who spoke the language of Geez, he is assembling all the black warriors, the followers of the feudal nobles, and he is dolling up Main ctrcet in his capital, Addis Ababe, as no other Main street has been fussed over since the extezicr decorators laid out the Field of the Cloth of Gold. And when Ras Tafari’s drum major blows his whistle tomorrow, the envoys and the tourists will see passing before them such a mobilization of gold breast- plated, gaudily caparisoned horsemen as haven't been seen inside or outside of the impossible movie spectacles in many a Jong year. All the world loves a parade, disclaim it though some may in a cynical, realistic, material sort of way. It must be @ genuine parade, though, nowadays—no tin or tinsel, as Ras Tafari in his Abyssinian wisdom, well knows, and is about to demonstrate. The Right Color for a Barn (Hebron Herald) What is the best color for a barn? That question is agitating some of the Eastern newspa- pers. Some think that to keep up with the times farm- ers ought to paint their barns white. They must be re- ferring to “agriculturists” rather than to farmers. An agriculturist is a man who earns his money somewhere else and spends it on his farm. There are many such in the East, city men who keep up country places which they like to refer to as farms, but which are really coun- | try estates. “Which will you have, milk or champagne?” asked one of these “gentleman farmers” of a guest. “They cost me the same.” The real controversy is not over the question of white paint, which any practical farmer will tell you is too ‘expensive in both first cost and upkeep, when the area of the barn’s exterior walls is considered, but whether a barn should be painted at all. There is one school which holds that a red barn is not only an attractive thing to look at but that it will last longer than an unpainted barn. But the opponents of this view proudly poinf to | the unpainted barns which dot the Eastern landscape. | which have stood, many of them, for a hundred years and then some, and whose white pine boards are still sound and weatherproof, The unpainted barn, its advocates declare, becomes a Part of the landscape; it is nearer to Nature than if it were painted in any color at all. Grant that, and the question still remains a practical one rather than one of beauty. From the farmer's point of view, it would seem to be a question of climate and the kind of wood tgeed in building the barn. Some lumber will stand a century of unpainted exposure, other kinds of wood will speedily decay unless painted. It is not an importani question, but it has its amusing | suggestions What if we were to paint barns in the gay pinks, blues and yellows which the peoples of some Euro- pean countries affect for their buildings? Or why not decorate their exteriors, if not with landscapes, then with “modern” art in strange bands, triangles and curly- cues of vivid reds, greens and purples? If the purpose is to add to the gaiety of the scene, why not2 There was a time when most of the barns, in some sec- tions of the country, were at least partly painted. What has become of all of the advertisements of curealls for man and beast which used to decorate the farm out- buildings? Farmers today don't tolerate the use of their Property for such useless advertising.

The features of the entertainment were all thoroughly appreciated, as was the program which was given in memory of Carl Ben Etelson, noted aviator. Several plays were given, among them being a Wild West pantomime which brought much applause. There was a fishing pond, zoo, several side shows and a beauty parlor, all of which brought their share of atten- tion. Special mention must be made of the Baldwin orchestra in which “musical instruments” from wash tubs to jazzboes had their place. Musical numbers on the piano and accordion ‘were given by Paul and | Florence Borner, and at ten o'clock hot dog sandwiches with all the trimmings and coffee were served. The total receipts for the evening were over forty-six dollars which will be used for school purposes. Joe Poole and W. C. Gehrke sold the tickets, and we mustn't forget the big boxing match staged between Paul Borner and Miles Lewis with Post- master J. C. Poole acting as referee. Paul won the bout and was given a| pair of pajamas as the prize. The Esmond blanket which was given to the holder of the lucky ticket was won by Louie Spitzer and the door |. prizes, a pair of ladies silk stockings and a pair of men’s silk hose, were won by Florence Rupp and Lester Schonert. A number of folk from outside the community attended the entertainment. Thanks are extended to all who helped make the affair a success.

Wike on ene sido of paper only, Letian aust sot exsed (160 words, Addrem De, Frash McCoy, ewe of tis peper.' IF YOU DO CATCH COLD If you have already caught a cold you will not only want to know the quickest way to get rid of it, but you will also want to use a method of treatment which is least likely to bring on complications such as pneu- monia, bronchitis, tuberculosis, dis- charge from the ears, and a generally run-down condition, which may follow severe colds. When a cold has started, the best plan is to assist the body in opening up all the channels of elimination. Large amounts of water should be taken in order to thoroughly flush out the kidneys and carry away excess wastes. One or two enemas should be taken to wash out the toxic wastes from the colon. The activity of the pores of the skin should be increased by several sponge baths daily, or through inducing copious perspiration. A sweating treatment is probably the best method to be used to get rid of the toxins which exist during a cold. After taking a thorough enema, the patient should then take a hot bath for fifteen to twenty minutes and get into bed, using only cover- ings for the body which are made entirely of wool. Hot water bottles should be placed at the foot of the bed, and several woolen blankets used to cover the patient. He should be tucked in or pinned in so that no air enters under the covers or around the shoulders. A nurse should then prepare an infusion made by pour- ing hot water over a grapefruit which has been cut into pieces. The skin and all should be used, a quart of water to each medium-sized grape- fruit. The steeping process should be done in an earthenware jar or enamel pan. After the liquid has been allowed to stand for twenty minutes the pa- tient should be given four to eight ounces at a time every thirty minutes. The patient should be induced to sweat for as long as necessary until there is no abnormal temperature, and the sweating should not be interrupt- ed for any reason during the first hour or two. As soon as the tempera- ture is normal and patient feels re- lieved he should be changed to warm, dry clothing but kept covered for sev- eral hours. It is better to wait a whole day after the cold has gone before the patient takes much exercise, but from then on it is important to increase the exercise each day in order to gain strength. ‘When you have a cold it is a good plan to use soft tissue handkerchiefs, as these may be easily burned and a clean one used each time. Do not make the mistake of feeding @ person with a cold. The grapefruit infusion, orange juice or hot lemonade is all that is needed, One with a cold should drink plenty of water. Twelve glasses a day are not too much. After Dr. McCoy will gladly answer personal questions on health and diet addressed to him, care of ‘The Tribune. Enclose a stamped addressed envelope for reply. the cold has disappeared the patient can then use a well balanced diet, but should avoid too much starch for a while. A similar treatment to this may be used if you feel that you are getting influenza. With this type of treatment your system will be thoroughly cleansed and you should feel better than before. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Falling Hair Question.—G. H. asks: “Will you kindly tell me what causes the hair to fall out in spots? I have never taken ether. Some say that causes such a condition. Am apparently in good health, 30 years old.” Answer.—When the hair comes out in spots it is often because of some glandular derangement in your body. but may be due to the local infection from a micro-organism which has lo- cated in your scalp. Have your head shaved, take ultra-violet treatments on your scalp, take a short fast, and then live on a diet as recommended each Friday in this column. No Starches With Fruit Question.—J. J. asks: “Is it true that we should not combine starches with fruit or acids? What effect does it have on the body?” Answer.—Starches digest with less trouble if no fruits or sugars are used at the same meal. This is a proven fact, no matter what theories are formulated to account for it. The simple reason seems to be that starches are digested in an alkaline medium, and that fruits and sugars only stimulate more of the acid di- gestive fluids in the stomach. This certainly cannot assist in the diges- tion of starches, and appears to in- terfere with it. Dyspepsia and Acidosis Question.—L. H. Asks: “Are dyspep- sla and acidosis caused by the same conditions? May both be overcome by the same diet?” ‘Answer—Any kind of dyspepsia may be caused by the same things which cause acidosis. Acid dyspepsia means poor digestion due to over- acidity of the stomach. A well bal- anced diet will correct any kind of dyspepsia or acidosis. eee | Today Is the | Anniversary of —_—_—_—_—_—_———""e INDIAN SUMMER On Nov. 11, Indian Summer, a short season of pleasant weather in the centyal and Atlantic coast states, is supposed to begin. Characterized by an almost cloud- less sky, mild days and cool nights, Indian summer may last from one to two weeks The barometer readings are higher than the average, and the season is marked by the drying up of ithe leaves of most plants. Because of the prevailing dryness, forest and prairie fires occur at this time, the smoke adding to the intensity of the Indian summer haze. Smoke from such fires spreads slowly eastward, gathers moisture to itself, and is followed by clouds and gentle rains. Similar weather occurs in Germany, where the season is known as “Old Woman's Summer” and in England, where it is called “All Hallow Summer.” The term “Indian Summer” was! probably derived from the intense heats of the midsummer weather in India and the West Indies.
