If a wife knows that her public valuation depen upon her husband's finances, will not wife + be mighty particular about keeping hus- ; bandin finances? It is a hot thought, one + seemingly pregnant with virtue. Naming i } no names, we pass it along, hoping that tit will take root in good soil and produce seed a thousand fold. One of the real ; happy things in newspaper work is the | passing on to others of good things, even ! } t i things that don’t promise to do much roost- ing at home. Drastic Folly TUNG by the Washington “drastic economy” bug, Governor Wood is going to weed out all unnecessary gov- ernment employes and expects to be able * to reduce the personnel by 30 per cent. A good move, of course. But Wood has been governing the Philippines for some years, and it’is natural to ask why he : didn’t make this move long ago, without any spe prodding. Any other business fh than government business that carried 30 i + per cent of unneces: help would have i ; a fine prospect of bankruptcy. You would see the boss storming into the office and + yelling for the head of the fellow who : yas rutining things. But in government 4 siness the boss —the people — doesn’t + know or doesn’t care. It Has a Healthy Sound OYS going to the citizens’ military training camps this summer ask what they are to bring with them, and receive this reply: “One suitcase or grip, large or medium size with lock and key, containing: Four suits thin underwear, two pairs pajamas, six handkerchiefs, four face and two bath towels, toilet and shaving outfit. “Optional: - Linen shirts with attached collars for wear off duty, athletic and baseball clothes, shoes and cap; bathing suit, light sweater, bedroom slippers, ten- nis racquet, musical instruments, fountain pen, camera. No firearms.” It has a good, healthy sound—that list of articles. May it be a wonderful 30 days for the 38,000 young men who'll work and play under military direction this summer.

What's That? EMOTE him! Brigadier General Lord, director of the government budget, tells the Philadelphia chamber of com- merce that no further reduction in income taxation is possible without a great reduc- tion in government expenditures.

The whole world will wish him a suc- However, he should not neglect to administer a strong anesthetic. Otherwise, the yells of the wealthy patient may have a discouraging effect on tain nations that are foolishly trying a cure thru easing up on big wealth, big incomes and big war profits. cer for Getting to the Bottom NUMBER of courts in Eastern cities have adopted the policy of suspend- ing jail sentences on drunken drivers who will give the names of their bootleggers. Fighting the devil with his own tools rarely draws much public admiration, but this court policy referred to is certainly one way to enforce prohibition “at the source.” Moreover, the fellow who sells | liquor to a driver is, also, a potential mur- derer and, by one method or another, the law should give him his due for whatever happens. Other courts please notice. Sounds Like a Daniel iE CALIFORNIA hasn't filled her quota of portraits in that Washington hall of fame, this paper is open to suggestions respecting Judge Walter Perry Johnson, of the n Francisco bench. Mrs. Virginia J, Gurley sued her hus- band for divorce on the grounds that he yed too much golf and objected to her performance as an amateur theatrical star. Judge Johnson denied the divorce in a decision that so thunders freedom and jus- tice as to make old Tom Jefferson's Bill of Rights sound like a weak whisper. The husband, declared Judge Johnson, is lord and master of his household and it is his right to object to his wife exhibiting her- self in theatricals. This is point No, 1. Get it clearly. Point No. 2 is apparent in the judge's remarks on the heinous golf charge. Hus- bands, he decides, have a right to play golf even from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m., Sun- days. Business men husbands must have recreation and outdoor exercise. No, sir, we don’t know that Judge John- son ever saw wives in amateur theatricals, or ever putted a golf pellet. But multi- tudes of husbands will agree that he has a wonderful grasp of husbands’ rights, just the same.

We see a beautiful ship plowing thru the waves and dash- ing the sp: ide, and we think of it as living. But a ship is a mere instrumentality for the men on board to use. In one sense the ship is carrying men—-in a more real sense they ure carrying the ship, for without them the a) would not move. A ship does not have to be trained, altho it is true that a new ship has to be operated for some time before its mechani- cal operation is perfect. We have our shake-down cruises for new ships for the double purpose of training the crews and of rubbing off the rough places in the machinery and dis- covering whatever defects there may be in the ship. In a great fleet not only must each individual perform his accustomed task readily, but also there must be the functioning of all of the personnel on board a ship in their relative duties and obligations. dead The rm t {t ontrol of these tune dri h the fleet.
