And he is today probably the most famous liv- ing physicist! This is the first comfort that has come to forgetful educated folks since the shock of discov- ery of the flaccidiyt ef their memories, following the blication of the Edison questionnaires. What is the Freed of sound? Who does not count when he sees the lightning flash and waits to hear the thunder’s roll? Probably not one of the thousands of piano tuners in the world knows the velocity of the ethereal vibrations set up by the wires he tightens or loosens, “But there are people with photographic minds who do remember the speed of light, the speed of sound, the formula for force, the value of pi, the dimensions of Betelgeuse, the repertory of Lillian Russell, and the year Mazzini was born—a widely assorted stock of facts, and usually they are not scientists or profes- sors or encyclopedists; professionally they are conver sationalists and the awe of their audiences is their great reward. Other people specialize in one or a few} subjects—baseball statistics, the electoral votes, the stack colors of every steamship line, the dates of the notes of ex-President Wilson, and Greenwich Village is supposed to be peopled with dilettanti. “Our memories are grateful servants. They retain what suits us, and what suits us usually pleases us, If we are self-sufficient and neither gracious nor pdlitit, our memories decide hot to remember nameg or faces of acquaintances. Some of us cannot carry tunes or poesy or story. plots, with any fidelity, and this may mean that there is neither melody nor romance in our souls or that we are such abundant creators ourselves that our memories ask, “What's the use?’ A food transcription of an old-apothegm is ‘Tell me the sort of things you remember and I'll tell you the sort of person you are,’ . If you remember murder and di- vorce and other morbid news, you are morbid and small-minded. If you remember boxing bouts, or the lengths of fish you have caught, or the hardest fought tennis match you ever saw, then your heart turns to sport. To remember anything about cinema stars might mean Jack of sapiency. “But it is only fair to allow that a man is a better citizen who remembers the capitals of every state in the Union, the year McKinley was shot, and the meth- od of enumerating the United States divisions in the world war. We cannot depend entirely upon books, otherwise our memories would end in atrophy, the key to books would be lost, and we should fade as civ- ilized beings, going through the stages of degeneracy until we had forgotten it is wrong to murder, it is harmful and hurtful to touch fire, and, finally, it is unpleasant to collide with a hard object. The adult amnesia victim is probably the most pitifully disabled of men, for memory is the tower we erect to view the world. The lower it is the less exalted is our view.” ER EER SAE TK THE MESSAGE OF AMERICANISM. Ambassador Harvey’s London address continues to occupy a large share of public discussion both at home and abroad. And on this side opinion agrees that no one event has so signalized the return to American- ism in our government as his utterances. Pledges of American sacrifices for European rehabilitation, which featured utterances of members of the former admin- istration were quite lacking in Colonel Harvey’s -re- marks. He gloried in the fact that -he was a repre- sentative of the United States, instead of, offering apologies for it. “Precisely as your ambassador went to Washing- ton as an unalloyed Briton, I come to Lendon as an unalloyed American.”” That’s the way he put it. | Colonel Harvey’s, declaration of the motives that} inspired America to send her soldiers across the At: lantic rings with the American spirit that is found in every line of his address. “Far more prevalent until recently was the impres- sion that we went to war to rescue humanity from all kinds of menacing perils,” said the ambassador in recollection of the beautiful idealisms uttered so fre- quently by the former president. ‘Not a few remain convinced,” he continued, “that we sent our young soldiers across to save this kingdom, France and Italy. That is not the fact. We sent them solely to save the United States of America, And most reluctantly and laggardly at that.” Ee Tae Let us go back and compare this*sturdy language with the sickening sentimentality that has gone be- fore. On Memorial Day, 1919, standing in Suresnes cenfetery, among the graves of thousands of Amer- ican soldiers President Wilson uttered ‘the ‘following: “Never before have men cfossed the Seas to a for- eign land to fight for a cause of humanity which they did not pretend was particularly their own,,but knew was the cause of humanity and of mankind.” Those boys knew that they went to fight for Amer- ica, and their surviving-comrades may glory in the fact that.the present administration is not afraid to say So, even at a banquet table in London. Further abandonment of the government-by-theory policy that was upon us so long was sounded by Col-‘ onel Harvey, when he said: “We will get nowhere un- til we abruptly put aside academic discussion of theo- retical proposals and manfully face, without mincing or wincing, the actual real: 4d How, much better off would the world be today had the peace conference at Paris confined itself to ac- tual realities instead of wasting months in roaming the reform of human passions through diplomatic de- cree. Official notice was conveyed to all Europe, what it may and may not have hearc through the American press that the United States can never enter . the League of Nations. “The present government could not without be- trayal of its creators and masters, and will not, I can assure you, have anything whatsoever to do with the league or any commission or committee appointed by it, or responsible to it, directly or indirectly, openly or fartively.” 2 Respect for Colonel Harvey, President Harding and for the American people rose as the ambassador pro- ceeded and delivered the message to his hearers that the America of pre-Wilson days had returned to its own, jealous of its rights and sovereignty, but ready in its discretion, to lend proper aid to others when oc- casion may arise. than three ti ESE SS SO SEVERAL OF THE. DIFFERENCES, Madame Curie, the noted French chemist, discov- erer of radium and world leader in science, who is visiting America is almost as uninformed on political history as Henry Ford, who is also a world leader in his particular line. “As an illustration of Madame Curie’s ignorance of politics, and she should really not be expected to be well informed, she makes the state- ment that she is unable to see any difference between the Republican and Democratic parties, In comment- ing on the subject the New York Times admits that it cannot answer the question as to the difference be- tween the two parties. Then it appears that Madame Curie and Henry Ford are not alone in their igno- France. Possibly a few cf the main differences can be enumerated for the enlightment of these and other uninformed if any such there be. The differences are fundamental and vital. In the first place the Republican party stands for outright Americanism, while the Democratic party stands for internationalism, That is perbaps, the most important difference since it goes to the very root of national independence. The Republican party stands for the preservation of representative popular government as defined by the constitutiun, with three separate and co-ordinate branches, each exercising its own functions and not infringing upon the powers and responsibilities of the others. The Democratic party believes in transform- ing this government into a sort of autocracy in which the executive shall dictate to congress and_ shall, moreover, dictate to the states whom they shall elect to the senate and house of representatives. The Republican party believes in encouraging en- terprise by giving individuals the largest practicable opportunity and assuring enjoyment of the rewards of legitimate effort and success. The Democratic party tends toward communism, believing that the government should gradually absorb possession and cperation of industry, competing with individuals and discouraging personal effort. The Republican party believes that the gov- ernment should interfere as little as possible with business, taking care merely that laws are enacted and enforced for protection of the rights of all from unfair encroachments of the few. The Democratic party believes in a system of-bureaucracy which main- tains an extensive officialdom to pry into every man’s business upon the assumption that he is guilty of some dishonesty unless he can at any moment re- spond successfully to a call to prove his innocence. ; Records will show that the Republican party stands for protection while the Democratic party is opposed to that policy. The Republican party believes in placing the management of public business in the hands of competent men, who have demonstrated abil- ity in their private affairs. The Democratic party be- lieves that all wisdom and righteousness rests, with the chief. executive and that all other officials should be men whose minds will readily run along with his. The Republican party believes in economy; the Demo- eratic party believes in extravagance. These are just a few of the différences. They are about as dissimilar as white and black; and should be dollar: They spend from million year. business, we lowstone park that sell besides oil. ly to information. finagcial matters. DE.

In the shipping news of the New York Tribune this item is picked up: “A large consignment of German- made toys arrived here yesterday from Hamburg on the American liner Manchuria. The consignment, which is destined for several wholesale dealers in this country, is said to have been bought up at an exceed- ingly low price. This in addition to the great depre- ciation of the German mark will make a large profit for the importers.” This little news item Yelating the arrival of a con- signment of German-made toys does not amount to much in itself. If the shipment, spoken of, happened to be the only one no attention would be paid to it. But it is only one shipment of many that have been coming into the port of New York thus early in the year ahead of a tariff measure that is certain to be passed by the present congress levying a duty upon foreign goods of this character. ‘he Germans are canny in getting their goods in before such a law can be placed in effect. Every cargo of toys frof'Germany, made by cheap labor and sold in our markets simply means that much employment denied American workmen and work- women and that much wages taken away from our people which they should have, for we are operat- ing under the Wilson-Underwood free trade law which demands no duty upon such imports, It was demonstrated during the years of the war that Americans could fully supply the home toy mar- kets, with better and greater variety of toys than ever came out of Germany, and have a surplus for foreign trade. The world was delighted with the American goods. Both the Germans and the Japanese have copied the American goods, have made them up in cheaper and flimsier form and are now sending them to us with cheaper labor costs of production and occupying our markets without any revenues to our national treasury. It is not alone toys,.foreign countries have been sending into American markets, various other prod- ucts, cheaply produced, have been coming steadily, ever since these countries rehabilitated their manu- facturing plants, shortly after the close of the war. It is one explanation of unemployment throughout our own country and impresses or should impress con- gress with the necessity of a tariff to secure a rev- enue or else to keep out a large share of these cheap- ly made foreign goods. WITH SHAME AND SORROW. Referring to occurrences in recent days in Lara- mie the Boomerang says: “Once more are the news columns of the local press found to contain articles relating to immoral prac- tices which, it seems, have gone on among certain cir- cles of young people in this city. Authorities who have investigated the e and the parentage of the two young men and girls have found that in all but one possible exception, laxity on the part of the parents of the young people may be considered to a large ex- tent explanatory for that looseness in morals which would permit a person to indulge in the base prac- tices which have placed a stigma’on the names of the four young people and their families. This is a day when temptation is more prevalent than ever before. It is more difficult than ever for the youth to ‘go straight,’ and more difficult for the parent to teach, but to the girl or boy who successfully evades tempta- tion, and to the parents whose training helps their children to remain decent, more credit is due than was through the realms of disproved the d attended to the business of making peace rather than attempted due those who lived in the age of a generation or two ago.” CALUMET "YOU certainly want to save ™Toney; and would like late betiertekinge "srt Then use Calumet.
