We read in the Melbourne Review that the Australians are watching—anxiously, the Review—the progress ef diplomatic action between America and Japan and hop ing fervently that no break will come between the two great powers. “But,” says the Australian paper, “in case of war, would be impossible for Australia to remain neutral. between yellow and white, we would be with our white brothers The Melbourne Review discusses the case at some length “We have seen what happened in Europe when a great and prolific nation was hemmed in and blocked whene it sought an outlet for its surplus people. What will oc if, in the Far East, another virile and prolific people is de- barred from expansion in those fields it regards as right- fully belonging to it?” The Australia editor points to the fact that the in the German empire before the great war was mile. In Japan it is 382. In Germany, the whole the land could be lived on, altho not all fertile; half the area of the Japanese islands is uninhabitable. Actually, therefore, the density in Nippon is over 600 to the square says As ty ~ hope the United States will put no obstacles in the way of the Japanese spreading into northeastern Asia and to some ‘of the lightly populated warm islands of the East Indies. says the editor, will satisfy Japan and avert war in the Pacific. Two alleged burglars arrested Wednesday by Seattle | police, were found to have a bottle of nitro-glycerine in their possession. Almost as ruinous as wood alcohol, eh, what? C. F. Higham, member of British parliament, says that healthy man is a potential earner of $50,000 a year. Then he tells how to go about it. Maybe he is “spoofing” @s. But aiming at the $50,000 place, if we follow him, we t land a $25,000 job, which in itself is worth while. e secret is to get others to work out your ideas,” he “And to have the courage of your convictions; to says, \e cour Say ‘yes’ and ‘no’ and stick to it. when Opportunity knocks at your door.

Fire f f from the job that doesn’t make you happy. chances if you want big chances. Have faith in yourself. You will be judged by what you can do, and do do. But no man who works for a minimum wage will ever earn $50,000 ” There, that’s how to earn $50,000 a year. Take off your ts and go to work! Wonder if Higham is earning that h or only telling the rest of us how to do it. Pershing. Some depraved humorist, right in the middle of the most exciting bout, will probably sing out: “At- tention!” Maurice Has Changed The society world, and its reflex, the clothing world, are il “het up” over the arrival in America of Maurice Maeter- the philosopher. Blue bird motifs, if they do not nate, will at least inspire a considerable part of the ring fashions. "Time was when Maurice Maeterlinck could not be drag- from his villa, a converted monastery, in Normandy. But that was the time when, lost in the mysticism of his plays, “Pelleas and Melisande,” or “The Blind,” he built ‘a far richer world of his own—the world of the mind. ths first wife, who had been Georgette LeBlanc, an actress of considerable note, rescued “The Blue Bird” from the “waste basket. Over his mild protest it swept him into world-wide popularity. : And now Maurice is in America accepting the plaudits the intellectual, eating the dinners of the rich. Poor her! Does he sometimes sigh for his little rows tling about the dream- of his plays? When we hear somebody knocking the league idea we reflect that when Moses brought back the Ten Com- mandments there was probably some wise guy to re- mark that such visionary stuff wouldn't work. - Bit o’ Good Nature ‘An observing person can often learn a heap thru watch- ing the workings of a smile and a bit of good nature. To the least, they work well together. For instance— >A mere slip of a girl was hopping along, hanging on to ‘her mother’s hand. The child clutched tightly, with her other hand, a bag of candy. So tightly, in fact, that said eandy broke its way out and fell to the sidewalk. The child gazed at the candy and then looked up at her mother. And there were large tears trying to force their way out of the corners of the little one’s eyes. And then mother smiled. So the child smiled—for just a moment, Mother followed this closely with “We'll get another , sister.” She wasn’t the sort of a mother to scold the for an accident. couldn’t hold the tears back. Smiles and good nature had done their work well. Weare informed that big business is worried about the continued rise in prices. Sure. And the kaiser wept every time a submarine sunk a transport. A Japanese scientist 1 is working on a serum to abolish yellow fever. Somebody may yet invent something to abolish yellow streaks. The British war office says Germany has a million armed men. She will need them unless Noske finds a aay to provide jobs this winter. The Russian Reds cheer us with the promise that 1920 _ will find a soviet in Washington. Huh!
