good resuits of the struggle that has been taking place in Europe in behalf of humanity. It gives the impression that these countries-do not like the idea of departing from the old and troublemaking ideas of bygone days. In the readjustment that is taking place the alljes seek to overcome much of .the unrest that has taken place in the past by eliminating the reasons therefore. It is a move in behalf of peaceful conditions and not an effort to control internal affairs, but it is of course an excellent time for Germany to bring forth such a question for the purpose of creating doubt and suspi- cion, and it deesn’t reflect pa proper sort of spirit in the small;countries ‘ when they think of Oppo: what prevails in other countties, gven Ger- many. It is time to profit from the war. 'BUDGET SYSTEM IILLH. In view of the fact-that ‘both par- ties have by their platforms: declared for the budget system, there ought to be combined efforts for its adoption. It indicates a general recognition of the need of’ correcting the situation that exists today, and certainly if a change for the better is required the sooner it,can be put into operation~the: bet- ter. What proposed s a carefully arranged appropriation . ischedule, worked out by the ‘proper- authorities in accomlance with prevailing condi- tions with the assistance of qualified accountants and then' submitted fo-a foint budget committee of both houses. It is one thing, however, to propose and it Is another thing'to get started. * There are -of course mary matters of the greatest importanée before congress at the present- time. They may well get consideration be- fore all the attention is turned upon the budget reform, but there neverthe- less should be a due amount of prep- aration_in behalf of the, long needed change. Three bills are before congress for the bringing about of the reform. Ad- ministrative responsibility’ for the budget s fixed i one, the analysis by a body of critical exports acting for congress_is_provided . in. apother and according to the third there would be a joint budget committee, to include the house ‘ways and means and the senate finance committees, {0 pass up- on all the appropriations. - From these proposals it ought to be possible to work out a measure that will_mect the requirements of the na- tion's business and get it upon a basis where something cag be told about what is being done, or to give it a financial system that will be in keeping ‘with the ~large - “corporation CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING JUNE 7, 1919 10,074 is THE INVESTIGATION BESULT. The senate investigation regarding the way in which one copy of the Peace treaty. which it was agréed a&mong the big four should be kept se- efef, reached this country has been held and the source of the copy revealed.

Furthermore it appears is no likelihood that the vestigation can find out other leaks occurred.. The copy thatj was given to the senate and that which has been published was secared by a newspaper ~fepresentative in Paris “from a highly. confidential source.” The same can probably be said of other gopies but further thanm| that it is impossible to learn who fur- nished them through any investiga- tion that may be conducted here, It was the peace conference that im- posed secrecy. It was in France that there was failure to respect that se- crecy and it would appear_to be the duty of the peace conference, or the big. four section of it. to find out .who looking for it if indeed it has not been playing ‘for a split among' the. allie§ nations.

THE MAN WHO TALKS ‘Remember that if the world owes you a, living, and many a lazy person makes the claim, that it is up to you to collect the debt. - The world has never tossed bounty into’ the lap .of. idleness singe time began. : Only foél mortals do this, and .it has usually been wasted. It is an unwritten law that a man who does not know how to! eafn money does not know how to save or invest and double it. There is no such thing as living by &od and by guess, for the decree went forth when man was created that he must earn his | living by the sweat of his brow; and by man sweat hag-been made one of the cheapest things on earth. Preciouss things are cheapened by stupidity. If you can walk on the open road, or in the wild woods, and not be im- pressed by the power and glory of God, there is something the matter .with | ypu. Some people look at a thing, While others look at it and into it. The newspaper reporter who wrote: “T think T shall never see a_poem lovely | as a tree!” could see and feel. To some people a magnolia tree with a million blogsoms upon it, or the Deuizia bush, called “a bank of snow,” | ‘becauge so completely hidden by its, Wwhite blossoms, is only a tree, or a bush, for they miss entirely the spirit of beauty and bounty and sweetness and ‘love therein expressed. If some people had been in the place of Moses they might not have seen tiie burning bush or even heard the voice of God. Man must be spiritually attuned to his spiritual surroundings, or he is dead to them. Do you know that system is magic? There is nothing more surprising to the average person than orderliness and nothing that tells more for succes in all of the walks of life. This is wh: order has been declared to be heaven's first law, and the foundation of = all 500d things. The reason most people o slopping throuogh life is because their m&xd has not been attuned to the harmony of ‘action. It is as eas: to do things well when once you have a grip on system, as it is to do them slovenly when you haven't. Those who do things well -and with despatch in this world have method- Order is the great law of nature, and disorder the lack of perception and power in man. It is a part of wisdom to cultivate the memory, to do What we can to per- fect it. The memory may be a bless- ing, or a book of judgment, and what it is depends largely upon ourselves.| It is not natural to remember unin- | teresting things, and it is madness to remenmiber things which keep _aflame | the fires of prejudice and haté. Don't | forget Henley's great averment: “We| are Captains ‘of ourgsouls, and M; ters of our Fate!™ know today we | may have an aural and a visual mem- | ory. that théy both work well together, although “many people only have the memory of what they hear and are! forgstful of what they see.
