While it does not come under his official jurisdiction, Chairman Claude Ramsay, of the board of county commis-/ sioners, is bestirring hin in a mighty laudable manner | , in the matter of a new federal building. A visit in the} East has given him confidence that with a proper commun ity interest aroused, Seattle can get this building, which 1t $0 urgently needs. The government is paying out $150,000] a year in rentals for various offices that cannot at present} be housed within’ the federal building. Clearly, it is a situ-/ ation that needs correction.

Anyway, declaring a stock dividend seems a little more respectable than faking the books. * Time, and so invention, stow! | way one lives. Not many remember the days when “under } the spreading chestnut tree the village smithy stands. But it is no far stretch to the day of the village blacksmith shop with its leather-aproned, red-shirted Hercules, its} billowing bellows, the ringing anvil, the spark shower, the slowly-shaping horseshoe and the stamping steed, added to which was an undeniable odor of ammonia and the scent} of burning horses’ hoofs. ' © The village blacksmith, “and a mighty man is he,” was] the village tinker. He fixed éverything. But with all his; mechanical ability he is being pushed out by a new type The village blacksmith shop, except in a very few places, has undergone a change, a transformation. Blame the gasoline motor. The shop has turned into a There's a lathe and an oxyacetylene welding plant The horses of the plow have been replaced by a tractor that never needs a horseshoe.

More troubles are caused by suspicions than by facts. [Movies in History | _ Every moving picture is a contribution, for the benefit ' of posterity, to the history of our time, its manners, its) customs, its thoughts, its virtues and its follies. To the schoolboy of the year 1995 history will not be merely something to be memorized out of books. It will be! visualized and made real for him by the moving pictures) ' that are being made now. The people of our time Will not) - be mere history book ghosts to this boy, but living crea- , tures who smile at him and walk and play and love and) + hate and work and eat. _ If only wa had today moving pictures of the times of Imagine a Fourth of July cele-| : a with moving pictures of the signing of the Deetara-| _ The historical value of moving picture plays will be as ' great as that of movies of current events. The 1920 photo~ | play exhibited in the year 1995 will serve as an eXposition ‘ of the social life and manners of this period. | ! And, despite its faults, the present generation will make a fairly good showing when it appears in the movies before in 1995 and thereabouts. The schoolboys of that | , time may laugh at some of the ways of their ancestors, ‘ but, in the main, they will agree that they were a pretty good sort at that. . % Evidently the Kapp government wore a fool’s.cap.

But a profiteer is a big subject, of great depth, breadth height. _ §So it is that the average person’s definition of profiteer falls short. The best answer yet given probably is that of a Western farm journal editor. He says: “A profiteer is a person who seems continually to seek to put the extra straw on the camel's back.” lereat many And it was better than|- THE SEATTLE STAR—MONDAY, APRIL 12, 1920. reetings!
