Why all this row about a dollar sign above the door, where the brides of New York enter St. Thomas's church on their way to the altar to surrender their family name and bestow their family fortunes upon some scion of European nobility who will later re- pudiate and scorn all but the dollar sign. The architects have perpetrated no joke. They have written into the carvings no whimsicalities. They have expressed in stone the symbolism of the times. It is history past and contemporaneous. As the people make history, so should it be faith- fully recorded by the writers, the artists and the architects of the period. If the brides make the dollar sign the basis of mar- riage why. should it not be graven upon the portal of the sacred place where they plight their commercial troth? The sinking of the Lusitania was a moving cause of our entering war. Should it not be pictured in the church decorations? A window which artistically de- picts the American bird of freedom snatching a hand- ful of feathers from the German imperial eagle is an event we have boasted and is an altogether proper memorial to gaze upon on a drowsy Sabbath morning between naps, when our attention cannot be riveted upon the sermon but wanders to the golf course or the far stretches of sunlit road and quiet sylvan high- way windings where preference lies. The initials of J. P. Morgan, the dollar sign and the money. bag are\.as appropriate in New York church decorations as would be an oil derrick, a flock of lambs ‘of a valiant cowboy bulldogging a steer as or- namentation in Casper churches, ‘ History is honest. It tells of the times. /It tells the truth as it occurs. If we are ashamed of our his- tory, we should make better history. The generations are known best by the monuments they erect and pass on to posterity. 2 Don’t pull a lot cf hypocritical stuff about shocked sensibilities with reference to the architects’ the ar- tists’ and the writers’ faithful record of the age in which we live. It is the rawest, the coarsest and the | frankest since the stone age. , . It is eminently proper that humor and satire should | enter into the designs of church decoration, so long . as they are instructive and not profane. The Fifth avenue types should have a place, the worldly man, the man of dissolute habits, the man devoted to busi- ness. It brings to the attention of the present as well , as the future the modern human being as he is in actuality. | If the medieval artists and builders used the flora and fauna of the local neighborhood for their decora- tions, it is therefore proper for the modern Fifth ave- rue builders and artists to use the flora and fauna of the immediate locality. What could be more appro- priate? It is the shock of the modern face with eye-glasses, in theplaces-we are-wont to associate.the cowled-head of the monk’in the carvings, that startles us, - The decorations of all of the historic buildings of the world carry their little pleasantries of the times of their construction. They have not detracted from the genera! splendor. Only the narrow-minded can object to this symbolism. Webster and his dictionary are treated in a decora- tive way over an entrance of one of the halls at Yale. In the cathedrals of Rouen and of Rheims there are many references to the period in grotesque figures. ( 5. The recent opening. of the Canadian parliament building at Ottawa aroused a storm of protest. because the gargoyles ridiculed living statesinen. Sir Robert Borden could ‘be seen sitting with his feet around the Nieck of the structure. ~ 4 Our ancestors have handed down to us a faithful record in pictures and carvings of the outstanding fea- PW tures of their time and so far as we are able to judge we might not be exactly proud of some of that pic- tured history had we performed it. Since we enact the present day history that is written into the buildings and monuments of our time, we must strive to equal the ancients in honesty; and in time -our crudeness ~may become sacred. ors LET’S QUIT. . | There is nothing in the world more beautiful than an American girl. However she gets herself up -she adds her porsonal touch in taste and style that admits of no rivalry among the girls of other nations. She is our finest product and we worship her accordingly. The more we see of her the more we find to admire. She reveals new charms with each change in styles. Someone has said that the angels have nothing on the American girl, and spoiled it all by adding, that E neither have on enough to wad a single-barrel shotgun. =. But surely we have grown sufficiently accustomed to the passing show to conclude that we cannot change oe honest enough not to change it if we could. We had a good long season-of railing and criticism, \d we have been worsted at every point. The Burlington railway system ruled against short =xkirts‘and low neck waists. There is no victory re- =eorded. The Hartford insurance corporations at- =tempted to have bare knees covered. Bare knees pre- =¥ail in Hartford. And now comes Marshall Field and “places the ban upon their several thousands of wom- =en and girls respecting bobbed hair. Those who still ve hair must not shear it and those already shorn aust wear a net until the hair grows again. Refusal comply means dismissal. The only reason assigne: for the rule is that bobbed hair is not dignified. Wheth- ercthe great dry goods company can make the rule “stick remains to be seq. “Other large concerns “Th Mw fe C8 le — f 4 e | throughout the country have tried to reform or change the style of apparel worn by their women employes. They have not succeeded in accomplishing anything more than to give impetus to the things forbidden. That being the case and the campaign for conserva- tive dressing having miserably failed and having frown used to things as they are and fonder of them every day, let’s keep our fool mouths shut and let fe- male women alone. There is one certainty—chedding cannot proceed much further. Makes OP PE ES AN UNTAXED SOURCE. Senator Smoot is one of the nation’s ablest finan- ciers and most valuable senate members on fiscal af- fairs. His judgment is sound always and his s gestions along practical lines should be received with the consideration they uniformly merit. Senator Smoot proposes the twentieth amendment to the fed- eral constitution permitting the collection of taxes on income arising from securities issued by state and mu- nicipal governments. The value as a source of rev- enue is apparent when it is known that here is an ex-|™ent from Marion, O., that the Erie . +, *, railroad has emption‘efsomething in excess of $700,000,000.

The exemption of taxation of municipal and state bonds has led to extravagances in the past in these is- sues and developed an inclination to pile up indebted- care for. These debts are for improvement purposes and not for productive enterprises. The proceeds of bonds of the character named are strictly for non- productive purposes. So to speak the money is im- pounded and not active in the busiress sense. Senator Smoot’s proposal is an amendment obviat- ing discrimination against present exemptions with the rate sufficiently low so as to in no sense to threaten extinguishment. ° This great'cource of revenue should be brought un- der the taxing power of the-federal government and bé made to bear its, proportion of ‘burden. It is un- fair that those who by the chance of good fortune have invested in tax exempt securities, should not be made to pay a share of their earnings in times like these. dens of war. “ ————___o—__— LAWS NOT MEN. port.” “The American people should squelch the insidious tendency of substituting men for laws,” says Forbes Magazine. “President Harding, under the tariff bill, asked for stupendous power to raise or lower tariff schedules as he might see fit.

Amer- ican importers, under the tariff bill, as drafted, were to be placed\at the mercy of appraisers in this coun- try, who were to decide market value of certain classes of imported goods, thus preventing the American buy- er from being able to know what the goods would ac- tually cost him. The method of enforcing prohibition appears to be left to the judgment of each individual revenue official, with the result that certain practices are held legitimate in one district and illegitimate in another district. : “The United States should be governed by clearly defined laws, The delegation of unfettered powers to individuals, no matter how exalted, must be guarded asairfst!) Thefcitizen should know what his rights are under the law and should not be subjected to the ca- price of any individual outside the regular courts of justice. It is bad enough to have the country over- run with ‘commissions’ of more varieties than there were colors in Joseph’s coat. To delegate untram- meled power’to any one individual is not in accord- ance with the American system of government and certainly’ not in accordance with the desires of our citizens.” } asl St Ne ES A RULE OF HOSPITALITY. “The constitution of the United States provides methods for its own amendment,” asserts the Phila- delphia Bulletin, “but the anarchistic doctrine that this justifies sedition is punctured by the Connecticut court of errors in a manner that must commend it- self to all citizens. This tribunal has just decided that the bill of rights does not allow aliens the privi- lege of attempting to change the form of the United States government. “This authoritative ruling is in accordance with an imposing body of opinion by publicists, who have ex- amined anew the fundamental basis of the constiti tional guarantee of free speech. It is not an unquali- feed right of American citizens when it conflicts with the exercise and sanctity of the police powers of the | government in time of peace. In war time absolute freedom of speech is thinkable. - But to invoke the bill of-rights at any @me to justify propaganda for the subversion of republican institutions is a travesty. “No alien who claims to be dissatisfied with the United States government is required to live under it. So-long as he remains a guest of the nation he should remember that he is here on sufferance. If he ven- tures to be seditious in his verbal assaults on the gov- ernment he cannot successfully invoke the very in- strument that he assails, excepting it be to protect him from his own bad manners.” HOPPER YARNS. Grasshopper stories are numerous and. tales ef de- struction wrought upon growing crops and vegetation in various parts of the country are in many instances incredible. ‘Things are never as bad as they seem and it is suspected that there has been some romancing along with the facts in the case. The season’s prize story comes out of Canada where at one point dead grasshoppers covered the surface of the St. Lawrence river from bank to bank. The dwellers along this noble stream. marveled but offered no explanation ai counting for the horde of hoppers obstructing naviga- tion while floating merrily on to the Atlantic ocean. The New York state agriculture department inves- tigated and pronounced it suicide by wholesale. The theory being that the hoppers devastated the country as they advanced and when they reached the river they were discouraged by the broad jump required to reach the other side so they formed a suicide pact, Jumped as far as they could and thus destroyed them- selves to the joy of the denizens of that neighborhood and the temporary suspension of boat service. We recall a very destructive visitation of grasshop- pers in Egypt some years ago, we believe the people called them locusts, which is not a marker for the Canadian account of what happened along the St. Lawrence. ee St SS ee BURY OUR FOLLY. ‘ The present administration among other white ele- pkants inherited from the late lamented Wilson gov- ernment is a flock of white elephants in the wooden ships built early in the war through mistaken judg- ment that they would prove of value in transportation of European freights. These ships “are practically worthless as there is no possible market for them. No- body wants them. Nobody wil! accept them even as gifts, they have been a source of expense and a véry large source of graft and are a reminder of a very unhappy day. Whatever can be profitably salruged should be rescued from them and then the lot turned to the navy for targets. Let's take the loss, and bury our folly away out in the Atlantic ocean. : 4 RAILWAY BOARD MAY INTERFERE fy christian home for the young girls of Press).—That Monday Morning Look | SHOP f the state who are ‘aca canmnidane is engaging the attention of people work in our public schools.
