Tt that this wonderful artist, voted himself unselfishi ests of his country trouble and anxiety, retired from poli- tics and ment of affairs in other hands. It is believed confidently that he saw he was not fitted, by nature, for the office at the head of that republic ter how great his patriotism, his de- sire to serve, he believed others pos- eessed the ability in such matters to a far greater degree than did he One of the most splendid attributes of a strong, fine man is his ability to recognize his limitations.

Let this South roads that would come would benefit the South practically, enhancing the a great number of tourists who would perhaps, go to that heautiful country, But there would be a deeper bene- fit to that would come fiom the cstablishment of these national parks. If there ever was a time when men and women needed the stimulant furnished by nature and the atmos- phere of the real that such National parks bring, that time i{s now. The | Roger Babson said many months ago that there would return of normal conditions in this country until old-time honesty of principle returned, at least in ‘The reaction from the arti- ficial pleasures which have been and are still popular is just as sure to come eventually as the pendulum is sure to swing back to its former posi- tion. This reaction should be hastened and when it does come peopls must have an outlet into which may be turned the surplus energy that has golng into channels which, to say the least, do not elevate. People will crave something—people do crave something different. If that longing is not satisfied by pleasures or actjvities that are healthful and inspiringisome new channel of some other sort will be found. There should be and there will be enthusiasm over plan which opens a vision of beauty such as that presented by this new Na- never, all new practica never come a a measure, been any get the practical benefits it would de- rive from its development. The South needs such benefit. And let the whole country get the greater, lasting spirit- ual benefit that would come. WOMEN “LAY READERS." As significant a sign of the times as has been noted is the action of the house of deputies in the Protestant Episcopal Church in approving the licensing of women as lay readers. The house of Bishops must act be- fore the action becomes effective. The significance of this step is seen even by those who approve thorough- Iy of it. Tt would seem that there is absolutely nothing to cast the shadow of impropriety upon the decision. In a measure it gives to woman's devotion to Christianity and good works. She has been a leader epiritually always; her courage in the face of discouragements and her per- severance have kept many a Christian movement alive where they would have died, perhaps, under the praec- tical burdens men must bear often to the slighting of the spiritual side of | their lives. Thus the recognition of | that devotion seen in allowing her to take her place as an actual leader in the outward and vigible signs of wor- recognition ship represents justice, placing wom- an actually where she has long been spiritually. Since women are being given a new place in the world of business and | affairs there would be a distinct oge- sldedness to the progress that is be- ing made were her position in the world of the spirit to remain the same as in the past. The change must have been a difficult one to take in this church where tradition, old | forms, old spirit have such a firm | hold. The fact that it will possibly | be taken reflects an appreciation of the conditions of today that is wor- | thy of commendation, if the laymen may be allowed to characterize the walk of life should know how far he falls short of perfection in other lines. Plain common sense should tell him. He knows what a master in his | own line is; fails to become a master in another line. Henry Ford seems to know no hu- mility; he seems to believe that be- cause he has become a master at his business he is fitted to dictate to the world on all others. He would be a czar and have his workers obey him, living exactly he believes they should live whether they are at work on his premises or enjoying the at- mosphere of their homes. He is en- tirely within his rights, for instance, when he says men who work for him must not show the effects of having touched liquor. He within his rights to require them to wear a certain uniform while working for him in his plants. But, entirely aside from the propriety of prohibition, he exceeds his rights when he tells them that they shall have no liquor i:: thelr as would be he should see when he | | action of the governors of that church. BONUS AFTERMATH The Senate has killed the attempt | to carry the bonus over the veto of | the President. Now there may be ex- pected to come from many sources, not all of them political, expressions of disgust that the soldiers, saiolrs and marines were not given what they de- served. Politicians have succeeded in so clouding the proceedings that few know whom to praise for their fight | for the bonus, and whom to blame for its failure—except as far as in- | dividual cases go. And even in the case of individual support, where that sup- port is shown by nothing but the vote, some people have even dared a ques- tion as to whether or not that vote in favor of the bonus represented honest endeavor to have it passed Some people have even suggested, | fine feeling: | when Heaven rains manna he may | never stop. for instance, that a party leader might have known that the bill would! be defeated—might have been glad of homes whether that liquor came lherel!hll knowledge—and yet might have cast his vote for the bill in order that he might be on record as favoring the honus Two things are certain, the disap- pointment of those who believed hon- estly in the bonus and the ability of this country to pay it is inspired by the satisfaction of those who are glad the bill was defeated is brought by a feeling of the tre. mendous value of the material things of life THE HOTEL MOVEMENT Announcement of the names of the men who will be immediately interest- ed in furthering the plan for the new hotel in New Britain brings added en- thusiasm. The names of the members of the hotel campalgn executive com- mittee, as published in The Herald of last evening, give general assurance that the enterprise will be launched under the best possible auspices. The need of New Britain for a modern, fine hotel being practically admitted, there was a keen desire on the part of the people of the city to see that men who would recognize just what sort of an hotel was needed and who would give their {nfluence toward meeting that need, would take hold of the matter. This assurance is now given by the publication of the names of these men. They knew the need here and they will undoubtedly refuse to besatisfied with an establishment that will not meet those needs. Thus far in the discussion and planning there has come no element to lend a question as to its ultimate success, and for this all New Britain people—and incidentally all people who come fre- quently to New Britain—are thank- ful.
