They are the breathings of the great souls of past times; mirrors of the best mindg of the ages. Genius is not embalmed in them, as is sometimes said, but lives in them. We need not many books to answer the great ends of reading. A few are better than many, and a little time given to a faithful study of the few will be enough to quicken thought and enrich the mind. After all, the learning commonly gathered from books is of less worth than the truths we gain from experience and re- flection. In these days of “outlines” and “condensed culture,” most of the knowledge from reading, being acquired with little mental action, and seldom reflected on and turned to use, is yery much a vain show. Eyents stirring the mind to earnest thought and vigorous application of its resources, do vastly more to elevate the mind than our professors. And few of the books the public reads today deserve to be read. This autumn the lists of the publishers are longer than ever before, but the number of worthy ones is no longer. Not tive per cent of the huge number of works of all classes that will engulf the reading public this season will be deserving of the full attention of intelligent persons. Most books have no principle of life, as is proved by the fact that they die the year of their birth. They do not come from thinkers, and how can they waken thought. No man need starve for good books. Every human being is a volume worthy to be studied. How much more im: proying is the original, if only we know how to read it Rapid Work fhe town went on a baseball spree yesterday with the vpening of the world’s series between Washington and Pitts- burgh teams. The first cold snap of the season made no dif: ference to the fans and for the two hours required to deter- mine the first game they gave their individed attention to the Tribune's playograph erected upon the front of the Tribune building and showing every detail of the game. An audience of hundreds of people, mostly from the business district, where business was practically suspended for the time being, watch- ed the play. The playograph is a great improvement over the old score board which has shown ae play by means of electric lights, for the past several yes The only thing missing the well- known three-way ibaa ahs and the stentorian announce- ments of Tom Daily—No runs, no hits, no errors. Otherwise, the Tribune’s first baseball party of the season was a! en- tire success. The result of the game in the form of an extra, was on the streets in just thirty seconds after the final flash by wire. Better Be Thinking The city election is a month away and so far no outstand- ing candidate has appeared. It is quite a sizable city. Many millions of dollars are invested in property of various kinds all of which is to be taxed in support of the local government and the sum thus realized spent by the mayor and city council. The tax money may be spent wisely or unwisely, depending up- on the ability to get the worth of a dollar for a dollar, by those selected to do the spending. Not the worth of a dollar for themselves but for those who supply the money. It would seem that the people who furnish this tax money would be looking after the business in which they have an interest. If they do not, are negligent and careless, they will awaken later to discover that someone else has looked after their business for es » and it may not have been to their liking. asper is entitled to have the ablest and wisest men among her citizenship for her mayor and councilmen. They should not doge their civic duty in Rerteng their neighbors in any « in which they may be called. Casper as a business ir titution is a big concern. It takes more than a dub to run it. In fact a dub has no business attempting to run the city’s business, and the people are simply foolish to place a dub in command of their business. Better be thinking the matter over for your- self rather than permit some other fellow to do your thinking for you Off the Wagon Russia, the benighted, has confirmed her right to the title. After eleven years of partial prohibition, she has hopped off the wagon and is now completely wet. Whiskey, brandy and liquors containing 60 per cent of alcohol and yodka of 40 per cent strength again appear in the cafes, restaurants and the more. The new order was to have gone into effect on October , but as this was within the recruiting period of the Red army i¢ Was postponed. Several hundred thousand bottles of pre- war liquors of various kinds which could not be sold pre. viously on account of their high alcoholic content were auto matically released for sale at from $1 to $4 a quart. Heretofore the government has maintained a monopoly of the manufacture and sale of spirituous liquors, but under the new order private individuals will be permitted to make and sell liquor. The government’s need of revenue, the improyident use of wheat and rye by the peasantry in making vodka, and the wholesale traffic in illicit spirits prompted the nation to return to a wet regime. What else could be expected of a country, which regards women as cattle, has abolished religion, holds out no incentive to individual enterprise, holds all property as belonging to the state, The only other step that could be taken has been taken. Why Not Move? Why,” asks a California newspaper concerning Chicago's growth in | population; “do people go to Chicago when they might go a thousand other places? Why do they stay there when residence is not compulsory?” That is a good question, but why restrict it to Chicago?’ Thus the interest therein is unduly limited and confined. Why are there so many people everywhere when they might go somewhere else? against © urges “practised The Soviet commissar of health is campaignin kissing and handshaking for hygienic reasons. ti that friends give each other a military salute, ae in America.” “ $$ he Ca. per Daily Tribune issued every evening and The Sunday Morning Publication offices, Tribune 3 is exclusively entitled to the use for publication of redited in this paper and also the local news published herein.

S. Coal Commission. By repealing the law which requires that a man serve { two years as a (i contract miner's ! helper before he can become a cer- tifled miner, Ham- mond believes that { the strike could be ‘a broken, since workers would then be available. In a- recent speech he said, “I do not think that the present strike Ris justified, for I believe that the grievances of eith- er side could be redressed without adding to the cost of production by following the recommendations of the Coal Commission specifically made to operators and miners, and the substitution of an honest co-op- erative spirit now prevailing. Cer- tain it is that the demand for the increase of $1 a day for company men with a flat increase of 19 per cent for tonnage miners and the check-off is unreasonable. he interest of the public does not He in dictating the particular terms of settlement but in urging the industry to find a way to adjust its differences peaceably. One fact, however, {s indisputable, that the public is in no mood to accept a fur- ther increase in the price of anthra- cite. Moreover, such an increase would in the long run work frrepar- able injury to the anthracite industry whereby both operators and miners would suffer in the loss of markets resulting unempolyment. ‘ublicity as to the quality of coal In interstate commerce would great- ly deter unscrupulous operators and dealers from the sale of fireless, adulterated and otherwise unsuitable coal,” he continued. ‘Publicity as to the costs and profits of the op- erators, transportation charges, the costs and profits of wholesalers and retailers, would enable the consumer to judge whether a fair or an exor- bitant price is being charged for his coal. Publicity as to the ear: living conditions and living cost: the miner would enable the public to form a judgment as to the equl- ties of the disputes between opera- tors and miners over the renewal! of wage agreements; and informed pub- lic opinion at those times will exert a deterrent influence upon the adop- tlon of unreasonable attitudes by either or both parties to the contro- versy and thus tend to prevent a lockout or a strike. “The people of this country be- leve they are entitled to an assured supply of anthracite at reasonable prices. The repeated shortages have caused a rising flood of sentiment in favor of legislation to establish the principle that the publlc’s right to service is superior to the private rights of either capital or labor. “To take over the mines fn an emergency would obviously be an extreme form of public control over the industry. Its constitutionality is doubtful and before attempting it the wiser course would be to adopt some program less spectacular but more constructive.” Florida, the Fabulous Miss Minnie Sutton} is one of the many persons who went from Cas: per to Miami, Fla., to participate in the great prosperity which is sup: posed to be sweeping over that state, due to the arrival of thousands of people from elsewhere and the un- heard of speculation in real estate and building boom now in progress.

In Miami the streets and sidewalks are jammed with traffic ke circus day, notwithstanding the fact that all streets in the business section aré one way streets. If a car makes three blocks in thirty or forty min- utes it are doing well. It is a beautiful ry. A won derful country. But to a northerner, is unbearat t, even at this time of year. What it the summer season {s left to imagination. The high cost of everything is fierce. A waitress must make from ten to twelve dollars a day, in order to exist. Rents are out of sight. It is & problem to find a place to stay al all, so great {s the demend of new ar- rivals in the country. For a two- room layout in a one stoty house, two miles from the business and ‘ho- tel district, we pay $140 per month. Closer in the rents are higher. On November first all rents will take a hike, so we are told. In most cases they will be doubled. The demand for places to live ie srowing every day, and will continue to grow until sultry weather -séts in early next spring. We thought Casper was haré put a few years ago to shelter its People, but Casper was never lke this. On the whole it does not pay to go to Florida. For while wages may be a trifle better, the high costs more than overbalance any seeming advantage higher wages may give, Florida may be an excellent place to spend the winter, say for throe months, but after that, I would rather be in Wyoming. The country is being overdone and it is a good place to stay away from, that is if you expect to work for a living and make a MBO of it, ‘Al's Well By JOHN G. W WITTIER.

Not only those who heard the address but, also, those who read it, are firmly convinced that | President Coolidge has given much thought to the welfare of the nation and that he entertains the hope that Ameri- ca’s example to the rest of the world will prove to be of much benefit to mankind throughout the universe. Important programs for the ad- vancement of our people are shown to have been carried out to succes: ful conclusions, while other sugg tions were made in the address which, if followed, would bring addi- tional happiness and prosperity to the nation, The president stated that no one can ever doubt the place of affec- tlon and honor which the veterans will hold forever more in the heart of the nation. He said that it was all a glorious story of American en- terprise and American valor. Mr. Coolidge stated that the magnitude of the service rendered by those who served under the Stars and Stripes was beyond estimation. He said that the victory gained by our soldiers and their foreign comrades repre- sented on the battlefield the united efforts of our whole people. He stated that the men of war had re- affirmed the position of this nation in the estimation of mankind; that they had saved civilization from a gigantic reverse, and that nobody says now that Americans cannot fight. Speaking of matters affecting our own welfare and domestic problems which resulted from the war, Mr. Coolidge said that the chief of these was the care and relief of the af- flicted and thelr dependents, He sald that this was a tremendous task, on which about three billion dollars has already been expended. Touching upon the. next most pressing problem, viz., the better or- Gering of the finances of the nation, the president said, “Our government was costing almost more than it was worth. It had more people on the pay roll than were necessary, all of which made expenses too much and taxes too high.” He said that gov- ernment expenditures have beén al- most cut in two; that taxes have been reduced, and that the incom- ing congress will provide further re- ductions. Regarding disarmament, he said, “Wé have been attempting to re- leve ourselves and the other nations from the old theory of competitive armaments. In spite of all the argu- ments in favor of great military forces, no nation ever had an army large enough to guarantee it agains’ attack in time of peace or to {i sure its victory in time of war. No nation ever will. Peace and secur- {ty are more likely to result from fair and honorable dgalings, and mu- tual agreements for a limitation of armaments among nations, than by any attempt at competition in squadrons and battalions. No doubt this country could, if it wished to spend more money, make a better military force, but that ts only part of the problem which confronts our government. The real question is whether spending more money to make a better military fores would really make a better country. I would be the last to disparage the military art. It is an honorable and patriotic calling of the highest rank. But I can see no merit in any un- necesSary expenditure of money to hire men to build fleets and carry muskets when international rela- tions and agreements permit the turning of such resources into the making of good roads, the building of better homes, the promotion of education, and all the other arts of peace which minister to the ad- vancement of human welfare. Happily, the position of our coun- try is such among the other nations of the world that we have been and shall be warranted In proceeding in this direction. Our peoplé have had all the war, the taxation, and all the military service that they want. They have therefore wished to em- phasize their attachment to our an- client policy of peace. They have insisted upon economy. They have supported the principle of limitation of armaments.” In speaking of the military prob- lems, the president pointed out that there !s one principle that js ex- ceedingly important, and that is that our institutions are founded not on military power but on civil author- ity; that we are irrevocably commit- me of etar and depths of blue slaring sunshine never knew!
