Not neces- sarily. The wrong guesser may be just a feol-running true to form. Delray Beach News tells of a quid being landed on the beach the other after- noon. Can the News mean a quid of to- bacco?——Times-Union. Perhaps it was a quid pro quo. as Since 1920 our government has been purchasing about $1,000,000 a year of ‘Italian marble for tombstones for our sol- dier dead. What's the matter with Amer ican marble which is more durable and certainly less costly? Ps 34 wrrnGermany’s attack on the ini is pre- ducing some embarrassing situations. It has heen discovered that the father of the secretary of state, Herr Lewald, Germany's chief representative on the International Olympic Games Committee, was a Jew. The revelation is the more embarrassing since it has already become known that Jewish blood flows in the veins of Lt- Gol. Duesterberg, the second leader of the Helmets. It wouldn't surprise us if it de- Wveldped that Hitler was found to be “part Jéw” and then what would happen? This “I am better than thou” attitude some- times has a boomerang effect. CHECKING ROOSEVELT * The popularity of President Roose- velt, in some quarters, evidently is causing deep, dark political resentment. © Every time any amendment is offered to one of the administration bills intro- duced in congress, the press of the pro- fessional political leaders of the country blazons forth the news that President Roosevelt has met with a rebuff. The proposed amendments to the farm bill are a case in point. Every intelligent person knows that the farm bill, as presented to the congress by President Roosevelt, was a skeleton measure. It was a’general proposition and was given to congress as a foundation on which to build an effective measure. It was passed by the house of representa- tives to the senate for such action. After the senate has finished with it, the meas- ure will be again considered by the house of representatives as it is amended by the senate. President Roosevelt expected and de- sired amendments to the farm bill and such proposals are in the nature of help to him. He is a real leader, suggesting the lines of legislative work, but he expects to get the result of the best senate considera- tion of the questions involved. He does not try to do all the work- himself. In- stead, he invites the congress to help him } and the country to the utmost of its ability. President Roosevelt will continue to lead the country in thought, he will care- fully study all proposals that are made, and will approve or disapprove of them. Where he and his advisers deem proposals unwise, he will explain the objections and will. ask for reconsideration. President Roosevelt is giving the finest example of what a great executive is like, He is not being rebuffed by either the house or the senate, no.matter what the, enemies.of the administration and of the welfare of the country may try to have us believe. The president and congress are work- ing together for the best interests of the people, even if they are not. working for the est interests of the selfish minority of financial interests which have heretofore sopmayed our SOTERA CHIEF KEPT HIS WORD The story of Chief Joseph, doughty Nez Perce warrior who made plenty of trouble for United States treopers some decades ago, and the faithfulness with which he kept his word when finally con- strained to give up the warpath, are re- called by a recént writer. On the spot in Montana where he surtendered to General Miles more than 50 years ago has been erected a monument to his mentory, on which the following is in- scribed: * “Chief Joseph was a military genius, courageous and humane. Presenting his rifle to Genera} Miles, with right hand up- raised, he proclaimed: ‘From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more for- ever.’ He kept his word.” Although many would class Chief Joseph as a savage, he had a high sense of honor. His word, once given, was in- yielable. It would be a wonderful thing for this old world if the so-called civilized nations which signed the. Kellogg peace pact would, like him, keep their solemn word. WHO IS EDUCATED? Amidst the confusion among various sehools of thought regarding present-day education, it is really difficult to find a satisfactory yardstick with which to measure that elusive individual, the educated man. Many hold the view that no one is truly educated unless he is familiar with the classics, proficient in several lan- guages, living and dead, versed in higher mathematics, and so on, Another school, while recognizing the desirability of a classicalseducation when circumstances permit, denies that the classicists have license to lord it over their more practical brethren, or to lay exclusive claims to real education. In this connection a thought ex- pressed by the Boston philanthropist, Ed- ward A. Filene, is pertinent. He declares that “the educated mind today is the mind which best learns how to use the knowl- edge in existence, particularly those truths which apply to the thing which he is do- ing.” And that seems to be a very good definition.
