Machine Made 4 One of the big bare spots that is rubbed into the weave of childhood of city kids is caused by the absence of anything to love, outside the family circle. Anything animate that is their own, that protects, and, in turn, gives unfailing loyalty for a master’s care. The country child still has his dog or her pet lamb. Time was when nearly every town boy had his pup, and the sight of a dozen tumbling children cascading over a great benevolent Dane, or riding three deep on the broad back of a mastiff, or going to school chaperoned by a New- foundland was as common as it was delightful. Nowa the dog is of tin and runs on wheels, A child raiged with a dog is lucky. The eternal lesson of loyalty, unquestionipg obedience, unquivering faithfulness, | unafraid protectorship, and ever jovial companionship can} not help but leave a wonderful impress on the child. Any man here present who was lucky enough to have a dog for his own as a boy remembers the dog with as sin- cere devotion as he does his first love. Chickens are silly things but the girl who has fondled and reared baby chicks has early been sanctified in the | divine order of motherhood. The lamb that was raised by hand on the nursing bottle did more for its nurses than they did for it in inculcating| the fundamental virtues. 5 The broad backed family horse that never shied, that was ever patient, that nosed you over for sugar lumps, and that stood outside the embodiment of f such meeting house on a Sunday morning, the mily virtue, loyalty and high-bred patience, a horse almost as much an aid to Christian char- grandmother, with her Dutch cakes, and spicy nd a vast understanding of the needs of the juve- * nile stomach. And the spindle legged calves, and the woolly colts, and | the pigs that learned to follow you about the place like pup-| pies, and the make-believe fierce old gander and the tame pigedns, and the woolly witted fat sheep, all these dumb THE SEATTLE STAR [EVERETT TRUE By CONDO You TELU NGVSU HAD A BUM BREAKPAST AT THE (RESTAVRAN T—— THAT THO Goes WeRs TRONG ANO THO COPFES WEAK, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1919. jl | Editor’s Mail HOW JUSTICE FAIL hn sins Nou DrON'T KICK, GH F POLITE OF You. ones under the benevolent dominion of the farm family were loyal vassals, whose virtues were reflected in the ten-! derness and patience and kind-heartedness of all who lived with them. .

Berlin confesses that it can’t get troops out of the Baltic provinces because it has “exhdusted its means of coercion.” And Berlin without brute force is helpless indeed. The Sugar Outlook The sugar shortage may mark the beginning of uncon- trolled price raising. Or it may serve as a timely warning and as an object : lesson in the value of federal supervision in an essential Far industry. : “Unprecedented domestic demand” is reported by the American Sugar Refining Co., and one reason for this de- mand is undoubtedly the relaxation of federal authority in the distribution of this food necessity. ; The agreement between the Sugar Equalization Board and Herbert Hoover expires Dec. 31, 1919. Legislation to extend the system of regulation which solved our war-time sugar problem is before congress. Profiteers are about the only ones who could desire the defeat of the bill to insure American households a steady and reasonably cheap supply of sugar. Members of the sugar refiners’ national committee say that resumption of zone control would relieve the present situation in a week. The charge that the domestic shortage is caused by ex- ; i { cessive exports is met with the statement that actually| about 100,000 tons have been exported, which is said to be about ten days’ supply for the United States. Other sugar shipments out of the United States were from purchases made by the British Royal Commission from the United States sugar equalization board of a part of the last Cuban crop. This was refined in the United States for the allied governments. For a year the wholesale price of sugar has remained practically stationary. Americans pay less for their sugar than any other people in the world. cs The Hoover plan has made this possible. It has benefited every household budget in the country. The remarkable thing about the cdnference of capital, labor and the public at Washington, is that the mere public has a look-in. e What Is Fame? They have barred Buffalo Bill from the Hall of Fame! This is why, in the words of Robert Underwood Johnson, newly elected director of the New York university’s “portico of immortality”: “Because he (Buffalo Bill) is famous in a bad sense, and we admit only those famous in a good sense.” Of course there must be some line drawn somewhere be- tween our famous men—good and bad—else Jesse James would get in a famous niche. But what we find objection to is this smearing of “bad sense fame” upon one of the most distinguished of Ameri- cans, the Wild West host of royalty abroad, one of the very best shots the Western plains produced, theepeer of guide of the early settlers, the scout for American soldiers fighting attacking redskins, the man who did more to enter- tain and amuse the American public than all those famous personages now grouped in the Hall of Fame. If that isn’t fame in a “good sense” we have erred in our definition of fame. It is always hard to find ground for a compromise when one side begins the discussion with the assump- tion that it has a monopoly on righteousness. The king of Italy has ratified the treaties with Ger- many and Austria, after waiting until d’Annunzio amended them in a satisfactory manner.
