European cables tell us occasional tales, startling in character if you accepted them seriously. You learn that Great Britain, in the Turko-Grecian or Greco-Turkish war, i§ about to take a hand against Turkey, if certain etiquette were not observed. Then Britain, France and Italy have once more appealed to Greece to postpone her offensive and accept media» tion, in an effort to forestall war in Asia Minor. Then would occur conferences between English and French foreign secretaries. Then a note to the King of Greece, possibly another to the Sublime Porte. A season of “pointing out” by one premier to another. All looking to a solution of the Turkish question. In all this time neither the Turks nor the Greeks have given the slightest intimation that they desire .the good offices of the powers which were worrying them- selves frantic about existing troubles. In all these deliberations, apparently not one ref- erence has been made to that decrepit creation of Smuts, Cecil and Wilson, which was advertised as the one and only liberator of the world from the thrall- dom of war. Coincident with the Levantine turmoil the league has been holding session, employing the time attempting to interfere in questions peculiar to the Latin-American republics, endeavoring to alien- ate them from their attitude toward the United States but with respect to the Greco-Turkish question it has not only remained silent but blind also. Nevertheless, there is ample authority under the league for interposition, or interference in the near eastern question. Article 11 reads: “Any war, or threat of war, whether immediately affecting any of the members of the league or not, is hereby declared a matter of concern to the whole league, and the league shall take any action that may be deemed wise and effectual to safeguard the peace of nations.” Great Britain, France, Italy and Greece are mem- bers of the league, the first-named being the godfather of the blamed thing. None of them has sought the league’s advice or co-operation; all of them have ig- nored the league. Article 17 of thy league covenant provides: “In the event of a dispute between a member of the league and a state which is not a member of the league, or between states not members of the league, the state or states not members of the league shall be invited to accept the obligations of membership in the league for the purposes of such dispute, upon such condi- tions as the council may deem just.” But there is league or the council has tendered any such invitation to Turkey. Under Article 11, the league has evidently deemed it the part of discretion to keep still; under Articie 17 to remain aloof. At the same time the league has extended an invi- tation to the United States to come in, and the hope is expressed that we will at least be represented on the international court. The cost of upkeep of the leegue is truly Wilsonian in its extr.vagance, which suggests one reason why the organization wants us in—it is soliciting contributions of American money. Its accomplishment thus far has been absolutely nega- tive, which suggests one reason why we should shun its familiarities and continue to keep out. We wanta live partner, not a dead one. —-—___—__ Under the new tariff bill poker chips are admitted free.

It is already bathing the Democratic mind in a radium bath of hope. “But as against that hope is the refreshing evi- dence that Presideat Harding, noting this sum total of congressional inertia, means to put his own big shoul- e wheeL as spoken out percmptorily. “Congress may not like it. “But the country anmistakably likes it—likes it a whele lot. “And, noting that, congress has got to like it. “There are some excellent men in both houses who feel ju Lenroot does about this national and politi y of getting a move on in these vi- tal matters of concluding peace, proportional disarm- ament, cut to the bone retrenchment; in fine, of liv- ing up to party contract. “But if congress collectively is torpid, slow, inade- quate in this matter of getting things done that if left undone will be the undoing of the party, the presi- the sath around the w: —— es THE BUTTON PASSETH. On the subject of one of the things that trouble the earth the Brooklyn Times, speaks thus feelingly of the well known button: “Present-day dress for women has been the source! of much controversy, some commentators praising it and others decrying it as the acme of immodesty. But there is one important point which has long been over- looked by both factions. It is the passing of the but- ton. This does not mean the button used for decora- tion but as an ancient afd time-honored fastening. With it bas passed that super-abomination, the hook and eye. The writer having noticed that his women- folk were dressing with a celerity unknown in the family annals, and that his ability as a ‘hooker up’ was seldom called into play, was impelled to ask why, and they told him. Dresses which used to fasten with a multitude of buttons or hooks now slip over the head and hang from the shoulders in the style long advocated by the dress reformers. A quick twist of nd the deed is done. This, the women» folk revealed, includes costumes for day and d@vening. They further confide that the under- pinning is adjusted with equal simplicity, and that the saving in time is not confined to the process of dressing, but extends noticeably to the business of making clothing. The curious one departed from that conference a free man. He saw himself going down the years: with no more dresses to button or hook up, and with one more source of domestic profanity re- moved. In the same glad light he saw that those abandoned buttons spoke more eloquently of woman's emancipation from what is petty and unnecessary into a broad field of interest and action than many a more visible class of evidence. 28 Se ee REBUKE TO HEEDLESS MOTHERS. “With the presence in court of three boys,” says the Philadelphia Inquirer, ‘the oldest only 16, on! chrges of grand larceny as a text, a New York magis-/| trate preaches a useful lesson on the duties of par-| ents. He blames heedless mothers in particular for! what he calls ‘the baby crime wave’ in the Bronx; but it might be difficult to show that fathers do not have some share in the responsibility. There is too much} reason to believe that in not*a few households they | are in the habit of leaving everything to their wives, even though stern paternal discipline be needed. “Yet the mother is closer to the younger children, at least, and has the better opportunity to restrain | and direct them. To spend the time in ‘gossiping and | attending cheap motion picture shows,’ as the magis- trate puts it, is to neglect maternal duty. Nor is it to be denied that the heedless mother is mainly of this type. She who works hardest at her houshold duties usually finds more time to take proper care of her childven than she who finds time hanging heavy on her hands. There is urgent need for a greater sense of parental responsibility, not in families where the struggle for life is fiercest, but in those where a mod- erate degree of prosperity has brought a certain moral laxnest “There are uplifters who would have the law do what the home ought to do. This is essentially wrong in principle. Thc law may have to interfere if the home fails; but none the less the home is the place for training the «hildren, and it is much more important to emphasize the duty of the individual parent than to turn the law into @ sort of public parent.” ge HE, ALONE. DOUBTS. When notified of his appointment William Howard Taft said it hag been the ambition of my life to be chief justice; but now that it is gratified, I tremble to think whether I can worthily fill the position and be useful to the country.” His countrymen have no doubt of his ability, his vast store of legal knowledge, his honesty and sin- cerity. There is no one who has not the utmost con- fidence in the wisdom and fairness of Mr. Taft, and no one who will not approve the appointment by the president. Of all the great men who have held the high judge- ship none have commanded higher respect or more genuine esteem than the new chief justice. It is hoped that he may live to serve his country for many years. Re es A PROFANE EDITOR.
