When people say their education is finished, it quite often hasn’t really begun, The people who think they can make good by bunk, succeed in bunking themselves anyway. Much said about forbidding gas warfare, but no means for excluding it from politics has been suggested. Fact that the women folks have had so many of their wrongs righted seems likely to make some of them discontented. This country can not yet be considered over- crowded, except the front seats of some automobiles operated by the younger element. The “full dinwérpail” was once a strong political argument, but” it takes a full ice cream saucer to satisfy-the flapper vote. The reason why some traffic cops are cross with drivers is that.they have concluded it does no good to present a speeder with an etiquet book. The sheriff of Hardee County shot and killed a boy of 19 who was running away from arrest— and the coroner’s jury decrees that it was “in the discharge of hid duty.” Human life is valued too lightly.in 'Florida—Tampa Tribune. STREET ROAMERS Yoting people who commit crimes and mis- demeanors often seem to have acquired vicious habits as the result of roaming the streets uncon- trolled. * While the community can help siich young people|very much by providing wholesome recrea- tions dnd clubs for them, it can not de the work of parents. Yeung people who have useful occupations and sports do not spend much of their time in aim- less logfing and roaming about the streets, looking for sore excitement to turn up. The streets were made ds highways to get to places where one wants to go and not as places to which one goes to spend leisure: time. WHY WOMEN ARE LATE husbands have com- plained of the long time it took their wives to dress; men have observed that women did not heed the flight of time, but carried on seeming interminable From time immemorial telephone conversations without realiting how long | ther talked, and so on. This apparent lack of regard for time by the fair sem has been the source of endless comment— often pfofane. thanks! to modern, psychology. Exhaustive tests conducted at Johns Hopkins University show that women just naturally can’t help its They dan't realize the meaning of “tempus fugit.”; These tests developed the fact that women on an avebage estimate the time it takes them to per form a given task at about one-half the actual time required. tests, which were made with 1,084 students, both men and women, said “Men estimate more accurately. The inac- euracies of women imply that time res shorter to women than to men.” seems Which recalls the joke of a paragrapher who wrote: “Married men do seems longer.” But now it has all been explained, } Dr. “Isabel Stewart, who conducted the | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN THE VERTICAL TRUST August Thyssen, the second of the great Ger- man captains of industry to grow powerful during the war and pass away since, stood with Stinnes for the “vertical trust” instead of the “pure trust,” as developed in America. Nearly all of our magnates have sought to dominate a single industry, coal, steel, railroads, shipping or meat. such as petroleum, The Ger- mans named were interested rather in beginning with a single industry and joining with it all the | related industries necessary for its operation, thus | insuring stability and barring outsiders from any | share of the profit from raw material to final mar- i geting. Today the “vertical trust” is making, headway in the United States. Henry Ford is its characteristic representative. His original business | In building up | was merely making automobiles. that industry, he gave support to many industries furnishing him necessary materials Now he boasts that the Ford Motor Company owns and controls every step of the whole long process of production, or from raw materials in the ground, sawmills and furnaces and rolling mills and glass factories and the rest, with even railroads and ships to carry the final product to its market. This is industrial power at its highest. It is the ideal of many of our American industries to day. will be largely concerned with working out such “vertical” programs. If the power is used fairly, and consumers are | given the benefit of the resulting economy, there | can be no valid objection. VEGETARIAN PROPAGANDA A convention was recently held at London of “vegetarians” from all over the world, that is, peo- ple who do not habitually eat flesh food. This doctrine has been preached for many years, and while the number of people who practice it strict- ly is perhaps not so common, yet there are a large number who depend mostly on a vegetable diet for their food. It is claimed the length of the human intes- tine shows man to be midway the plant eating and | the flesh eating animals, and nearer related to the fruit eating. apes. It is argued that people who do not eat meat obtain a more symmetrical physical development, and that all elements needed for their | physical welfare are found in vegetables, grains, fruits, nuts, etc. ae Scientific opinion however does not seem favorable to this doctrine. It is claimed that the structure of man’s stomach and intestines, and the variety of intestinal juices, suggest that he is in- tended to eat both animal and vegetable food, and the possession of biting, tearing, and grinding teeth is said to point in that direction. Scientific experiments are claimed to show that there is no great difference in the assimilation | of food between the vegetarians and omnivorous people who eat everything. But probably the majority of physicians would say that people need to eat some meat in order to build up a vigorous physique. Yet there seems a rather common opinion | that the average person eats more meat than he | needs, and more than he can afford at present prices. Probably the habit of careful chewing and leisurely and regular eating is of more value to | the average normal person than any hard and fast rule about such choice of foods, BIG CITY DRIFT Social economists commonly agree that too much of the population of this country is located in great cities, and that conditions would be better if the drift into those cities should stop, and if more | people would stay in medium sized cities and sub- | urban and country towns. One cause for this drift into big cities, is that in past years many people got the idea that they could gain an advantage, by buying their supplies in these great centers, to such places, and took it away from the smaller communities The people of Key West at least can do their share to counteract this undesirable drift, by buy ing their supplies of their own home town mer- | chants, thus keeping their money here to build up their own town, rather than sending it elsewhere to build up bigger cities. POPULARIZING THE PIANO The National Music Industries Chamber of Commerce is promoting a movement to popularize the use of the piano, also to foster a love for musi in the public schools, In these times some fami lies who in former years would have bought a piano and taught their children to use it, are now con tent with radios and phonographs. But to get the best musical culture, people must learn to produce music themselves. There of s no better investment teach thi y on children than frequently keep them more refined tastes. | most | services. to finished | product, including the timber in the forest, the ore ; Industrial progress in the immediate future | That helped transfer business | Sevccevescesescovseucececes ee er cocese Stewarts BY CHARLES P.
