A Splendid Idea It is a very pretty idea, that proposed by the Casper Motor club, to give the aged and infirm a few hours in the open next Sunday afternoon if the weather is propitious. Many of those who will be guests may have had no opportunity for a tour of their home city and its environs season, some for one during the entire summer reason and some for another. The Motor club’s invitation is out of the good- fellowship spirit that has always ruled this organization in the many excellent things it has done for the people of Casper in the past. While primarily an automobile club, its mem- bers are very human and have a natural desire to share with others the pleasures car owner- ship confers upon them. The invitation is broad and includes all who and ad of com will take the pains to send their name dress to the secretary of the chamber merce. There is no imposition upon the members of the club. They desire to render this courtesy for affords themselves as well as gives the recipients. Therefore hesitation should not prevent any person of age or infirmity from epting the cordial and gen- erous invitation of the Motor club and enjoy- | ing a few hours in the sunshine. the pleasure it the pleasure i Learn to Adjust The survivtl of the fittest is the rule through- out business life, and rightly so. It is not cruel; it does not signify that anybe must starve or be without employment. It simply means that people must adjust th selves to existing condi- tious. No one can haye 2 claim to live on some- one else, perhaps no better off than himself. ‘There is a place for everyone, but perhaps not just where he is or at just the kind of work he is doing. If conditions pinch, he must under- stand that this is simply the sign by which peo- ple are prompted to hustle around and find where they belong or change their methods to what they ought to be. Wouldn’t he rather do that of his own free will than have. some overhead authority move him around like an automaton and tell him all his life just what he shall do and what he shall get for doing it? The pressure of discomfort, and finally of necessity, is the natural pressure by which the industrial organization is kept in balance and by which all improvements are introduced. It has been the experience of many people that changes which they were forced by economic conditions to make, and which at the time were thought disastrous, eventually proved to be to their permanent advantage. Newton's Threat If Europe has no objection Newton D. Baker can remain in that hemisphere as long as he chooses. No one in America was aware of his absence until he felt impelled to announce his return and in due time to force upon his party in next convention, a declaration in favor of a dead issue sometime known as the League of Nations. Inquiry is altogether proper as to just who is Newton D. Baker? And to show our own tude in historical research even trivialities, Mr. Baker w Wilson's s of war. Most Ameri including, especially, those who served their country in the great war, have been trying to forget Mr. Baker and his works and many we trust have succeeded. Mr. Baker was not god secretary of war. He it was who over purchased nosebags, spurs, halters, collar pads year’s to and other horse gear at the ratio of sixteen to | one. In equipping the army mules he forgot to send the ammunition and the airplanes to the | front until the armistice was signed, Then he rushed both. There were so many sins of omis sion and commission chargeable to Mr. Baker, to make it so altogether desirable to forget him, that it a wonder that he emerges from his | obscurity long enough and bas the temerity t ldress the American people on any subject, le one one that died simul usly with himself | and had been buried under an avalanche of seven | million wrathful and excess votes Not the least smelly of Mr, Baker’s acts and | the one compelling every regular American to hold his nose and go ahead winning the war in spite of the seer was Mr. B S$ polite: ness to and consideration for slacke mscien cious objectors 2s particular traitors and chapter Mr alien enem Thi aker official life AY ea Americar ple in tl and the | normal | the first place in the nation, and has becom gave him a popularity of a kind, with a class he was in position to favor. It is unfathomable, this reasoning of corre- spondence school scholars, amateur investigators and summer excursionists to Europe that the American people are thirsting to hear their opin- ion on the complex European situation or any other subject. The fact that the person has the price of a return ticket to Europe does not qual- | ify him to enlighten the people of America on international subjects that have got the best statesmen of Europe going south. But when in addition, one of these tourists threatens to blew the breath of life into the League of Nations and parade it in a Democratic national convention, it would seem time for some committee of old line and respectable Democrats to take Mr. Baker by the ear and lead him out of the meeting house. Patriotic Democrats of America are no more in favor of entering into European line fence disputes, European racial brawls, European tom cat fights, and not at all concerned in the back stairs gossip of decadent continental courts, than are patriotic Republicans. Therefore when Mr. Baker return to America let us hope that he will be greeted by the same abysmal silence that marked his departure. Amending the Lord’s Prayer Dr. Edgar Goodspeed, of Chicago University has been experimenting with the Lord’s prayer. The object of his carpenter work being to abbre- inte or condense it. He seems to believe that the reason the original is not now as popular and in general use as formerly is because of its length. That it is difficult to memorize and that so often beginners unaccustomed to praying, forget the words and sentences and the result is a garbled supplication that is in no sense effective. To obviate these difficulties and others that arise the good doctor presents an amended ver- sion as follows: “Our her in heaven Your kingdom come; Give us today bread for the day, ® And forgive us our debts as we have forgiven our debtors; And do not subject us to temptation but save us from the evil one.” We very much doubt if the omission of two principal petitions “Hallowed be they name” and “Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” makes any improvement whatever. The original prayer is beautiful enough as it is. And besides there are all the traditions and sentiment surrounding it that devout Christians will be loth to surrender for a mere matter of brevity which is the utmost Dr. Goodspeed has accom- plished. It is not a matter of short of long prayers in this y, it is rather a matter of praying at all. Too many are omitting this form of acknowl- edgement of the existence of a deity, and would rather point to the framed prayer upon the wall as expressing their sentiments. And it may be said of those who do pray, like those who preach that their religion would be- come more real if they would practice what they i here can be no excuse for changing or amend- ing the Lord’s Prayer. Simply find a way of get- ting its into general use among the people and tuke a chance on its length. Paying Cupid’s Bills Cupid’s industry has not been hampered in Germany, by the crash of the mark, the occupa- tion of the Ruhr, the government crisis or the shortage of food. Matrimonial agencies say matriniontal busi- ss is particularly brisk, and newspapers are " columns of advertisements setting forth the longings of individuals who take this means to realize their fondest hopes. Ministers in the rural districts and the peas- ant villages have benefited particularly by the increase in weddings, profiting even in cases where the contracting parties suffered from lack of cash. Among the peasants the practice has become popular for the bride and bridegroom to present the minister with a young pig, a few chickens, geese or ducks, or lard, fruit or potatoes, instead of the almost worthless mark. Country jewel;lers, keeping up with the times gladly accept goats, sheep or calves, butter, eggs or fats in return for a wedding ring. Food, in fact, is much preferable almost everywhere to the constantly falling mark. In Berlin and other cities, as well as in the country distric the perecentage of marriages, based on population, is somewhat larger than in times. The Way of Progress In all kinds of business the marginal, high cost producer is just existing while the law cost producer is making money. So long as the relation between supply and demand is such that the output of the high-cost producer is re- quired, prices will remain high enough to induce him to’ continue operations, and he serves umbrella for all low-cost producers. They get the same price he does, and are entitled to it. In time, however, as low cost production in- creases, the high cost production is undersold and eliminated, and the market is established on the lower basis. It is the only way, because it is the way of progres: He Stands Alone Abraham Lincoln cannot be compared with any man. He stands alone.
