His salary never had been large, seems the sad lot of the school teacher, and grave ne faced hin He A bogus check was bees passed. It did not save the wife and it destroyed him. His conscience pricked and he fled from his crime, fled from himself. Into the far place of the country he sped, always with the hand of the law reaching for him. But he wrote other worthless checks—it was easy to defraud—but they only relieved the body but not the soul. His flight became more desperate. Always, always, the law was but a few steps behind him “T never knew happiness in those two years of flight,” he says. “I never knew what it was to live blissfully sleep soundly. Always fearing, always fleeing Now the law has caught him—caught n, an old, broken, helpless wreck, body and soul. “I have learned students,” he without moral the lesson I have taught so many of my tearfully says. “Education nothing stability.” Yes, he has learned the truth too late for himself, but in time to point a moral for others. Education is not all. Character must be its companion, for brains that know not the leash of morality only make crime more hideous. Poor, wrecked, old Kent knows this now and the best he can do with what is left of him is to offer himself as a terrible example. The story that Dempsey is to be married ts denied. Perhaps he, too, is already wedded to his art. « Checking Immigrants Geena recently ordered all its Chinese residents to register with the immigration authoriti They must furnish their personal history and photographs and prove that they are not in the country illegally. It is suspected that, since they look so much alike, when Mr. Link Cuff yeturns to China, Mr. Bow Wow returns on Link Cuff’s passports. Periodical registration of all residents will inevitably come in America. When we're all compelled to “show our papers” on demand, flitting criminals will be more easily apprehended. Partners With Crime NCLE SAM occasionally is a gentleman of easy-going morals when there’s money in it for him. He used to be the silent partner of the saloon business, collecting much revenue from liquor. The internal revenue bureau, listing taxable articles, includes bowie knives, brass knuckles, daggers and sword canes. In a none too roundabout way, this is partnership with crime, for these articles usually are the tools of crime. Not Natural NOWBALL, a prize Persian cat of Springfield, Mass. disappeared just before last Christmas. It’s discov- ered he fled from the pampered life of a prize pussy, to run wild in the woods. Civilization is unnatural, as much so for people as for cats. That’s why nature incessantly makes it harder to earn a living and be healthy in the city. She's trying to break up the cities. The airplane will help her, enabling people to live hundreds of miies from where they work. Nothing Permanent HE oldest bank in England (Child & Co.) will pass out of existence, absorbed by a younger financial institu- tion. It did business for over 300 years. Nothing is permanent. Even the gigantic American trusts will vanish in time—probably be taken over by the people, thru their government. We hope you live that long. Tough on the Farmer HE farmer has been getting only 31 per cent more for his crops from the average acre of land than he got in 1913. But he has been paying 86 per cent more for the things he buys than in 1913. These figures, from National Industral Conference board, tell the whole seory of the farmers’ plight. The scales will balance in time. But not by any sudden event, situation or legislation. Real Reconstruction ELGIUM, shot to pieces by the war, is lately making more iron and steel than in 19183—before the war started. This is only one instance of thousands, showing that Europe is getting back on its feet. Politicians failed at the job. Reconstruction began with the farmer. It will be completed by industries. After all, politicians are not much use except to start wars, levy taxes and spout oratory.
