It is the inevitable price of foolishness. Perhaps those South American re- publics are cutting up because they don’t want to see Japan and China get all the publicity. A Kansas professor says a girl’s suc- cess depends 85 per cent on personality and 15 per cent on brains. Any attempt at bright comment on this statement woild be dangerous, so we pass. There are two noticeable kinds of people interested in public officials, those who criticize him during his life and those who delive? beautiful panegyrics after he has died on the life he led. According to the Miami Herald The Citizen will have to revise one of the slogans carried on the editorial page for a decade of years from “Road to Mainland” to “Road to America.” Well, we'll soon be on our way. Those who‘follow that part of them which is great are great men and those who follow that of them which is little are little men.—Confucius. Anybody could have thought of this had they thought of it, and probably many did, but Confucius, the Chinese philosopher, gets the credit. The late great physician, William Osler, kept careful records of about 500 death-beds, studied particularly with ref- erence to the modes of death and the sen- sations of the dying. The great majority, was his conclusion, died wondering, but uncertain, generally unconscious and un- eoucerned, like their birth, tneiy death was “a ‘sleep and a forgetting.” ——- = CAN WE EXIST ALONE? In a world where space has been an-! nihilated by fast transportation and in- stantaneous communication, can any na- tion exist alone, remote from others? Most economists answer with a deci- sive No to this. problems of all peoples are much the same, that a brotherhood of purpose is more | necessary than ever before, that world co- operation is vital not only to economic re- covery but to the future maintenance of in- \ ternationaleprosperity. They believe that good and liberalized foreign relations, act- ing as the basis for stimuiated trade be- tween countries, holds the hope of the future. There are sound grounds for believing that. The collapse of American export trade—which was caused as much by tariff wars and embargoes as by hard times —has closed hundreds of factories.

It has made itself felt in every business and retarded purchasing power and industrial expansion. We cannot sell to other lands. unless they can sell to us. The entire world wants the products of American factories—the automobiles, typewriters, tractors and similar machine products we make. They can buy them if we buy products of theirs that we need. This does not mean that we should subject American factories to cheap-labor foreign competition—but it does mean that all the phases of the prob- lem of foreign trade need overhauling and readjustment. BABY Now HAS CHANCE In the long list of accomplishments | to the credit of modern medical science perhaps none has a_ greater significance than the success attained in the reduction of childhood deaths. A recent writer recalls that Queen Anne of England, born in 1664, bore 17 children, only one of whom lived. more than a year, and he died at the age of 11. ow large families of children often mature without a death. Through medical education and the treatment of early. defects the child’s chance of reaching maturity has been greatly increased, especially during the last half century. The lengthened average span of human life which now preyails is largely due to the reduction of mortality among infants. In addition to regularly employed physicians and nurses of public health units, thousands of volunteer workers are co- operating in the noble task of saving babies’ lives. In Kansas City alone it is said that 3,000 of these volunteers aided in this movement last year. For their effective efforts in this and other directions looking to the preserva- tion of human life the medical profession and those, co-operating are entitled to the highest praise. CANADIAN GIRL PIONEER In these days, when apparently no limit is set on the ambitions of women look- ing for a “career,” it is not surprising to find them engaged in unusual activities in unusual places. Among those who have left the beaten path seeking adventure and fortune, few have displayed greater pluck and enthusiasm than Miss Kathleen Rice, a native of St. Mary’s, Ontario. Miss Rice, an honor graduate of Toronto University, found school teaching too prosaic and about four years ago set out for northern Manitoba, 400 miles north of Winnipeg, where she homesteaded a quarter-section farm, cleared land and built her own cottage. Later she took to prospecting for minerals and has staked out a number of promising claims, with apparently great potential wealth in gold, copper, nickel, zinc and vanadium. She now lives on an island in Herb Lake, seven miles from the hunts in winter and prospects in summer. No phase of pioneering is foreign to her experience. If Miss Rice’s object was to get away she has certainly accomplished her pur- pose. We read of a plant that can scrap an automobile in six minutes. With suitable cooperation a telephone pole can beat that, + - -- ee ale. 71.

What are the duties of the various depart- ments and bureaus of the government? What service do they perform, and are these services essential and of value to the people of the nation? Mr. W. L. Bruckart, for many years a correspondent at Washington, and who during those years has fa- operations of the various departments and bureaus of the government, has pre- pared a series of interesting articles describing them. These will be printed in our columns. They will give to our readers a definite and accurate description of all the various activities of our government, and will be found of exceptional inter- est to every citizen.
