FOLK SONGS VERSUS JAZZ. Delegates to the convention of the National Music Teatners' Association predict the early demise of jazz. Those who care for good music will shed no tears. About the only defense that can be made of Jazz is that it Is dJstlntly American, and pride in a native product may P ad some patriots to cling to it affectionately on much the same principle ttmt led the melancholy Jacques in "As You Like It'' to say In Justification of his love for Audrey: "An ill-favored thinp. sir. hi-t mfhe own." Another convention, that of tlu American Folk I.ore Society, held at the same time as that of the rmu-ic teachers, nrings to mind however that there is other music, also distinctly American, and lacking the untouthness of jazz, which might be cultivated and developed with profit as a substitute for the moribund music of hysterics. The folk sou&s of the American negro and the American Indian. It was the sprituals and the plantation songs o the negroes that pave Stephen C. Fester the inspiration for his immortal ballads. It is a field of music that has cot yet been completely explore.!; its possibilities arc Fttll far from being exhausted. There is great piomiso, too, in the field of Indian music. Indian and negro folk songs will never become a craze like jazz, but they will continue to be enjoyed icng after jazz has been forgotten.

THE DEPARTING COWBOY. Those funny little things that rvn along fo blithely where nothing else but a goat would daro have done more town break the wrists of one-third of the population of the United States. They have driven the cowboy from Montana, hs last stand in North America,. Three of the rangers appeared in the clerk's office of the Uttited States court In Kansas City the other day and applied for passports. They will ride the pampas of the Argentine, Uruguay, end Paraguay. The fTivver has spelled their doom in this country. The final insult to thl3 particular trio came, they told the reporters, when their bos3 wanted to list them as chauffeurs. So they donned their chaps, which they wear with an ease no movie hero can attain, hitched Up their belts and started south. Perhaps these rowpunehers will find the fame wild, adventurous life there that their predecessors enjoyed on the western plains 4 0 years ago. Terhaps Kan Nell. Cherokee Bill and Hank Starr will have their South American protctpyea. Hut however that may be. lovers of the tales of the old weyt will feel that in he departure o this rear-guard of a passing army f heroes of the range, our west has lost. The fliver may he efficient, even in eowpunchlng. nut. no or.e who has cussed the things will claim f hey are romantic.

BUCK UP, EVERBODY! The oue great fact that every American ought to think and talk about today is the essential economic, t-cuudncsa of our country. Pauics are produced by panic talk. Prosperity can not be created by conservation, but, on the other hand, it can not be brought about under psychological conditions of doubt and timidity, says Leslies. We are undei going the necessary psocass of deflation following the abnormal conditions of war. ,, The big factor in the situation is the essential economic social and political soundness of our country. The wealth is here, and can not fly away. The resources are hero and will stay here waiting development. Our democratic system of government is backed by a wonderful moral and mental poise among a majority of our citizens. There are plenty of big men who nro able to direct the affairs of the nation in a. wise and just spirit. Just now we are tearing down a lot of temporary buildings and blowing holes in the ground for the new foundations. Soon we shall be ready for the new building, i.nd when that time comes we shall see a prosperity beyond anything In our history. Meanwhile every one must take himself in band and keep right on keeping on. The man who can hang on the longest is the man -who wins his fight. Many of our troubles never happen. Many of our burdens are unnecessary and often imaginary. The United States is the best off of any nation in the world. If we will put the same, or even a fraction of the same, co-operation, courage and confidence into the task of readjustment that we put into the war, we shall be out cf the woods in a Kfjort time and belter off than ever. Thousands of men are facing their heartbreaking burdens like heroes. Let us catch their spirit and emulate tbejr example. Everybody buck up and fight. Fight mostly against the. temptation to lose your nerve. Panics are normal to beast sand bugs, but not to men.

Already we have probably turned the corner. Now is the time to stand together; to postpone selfishness; to throttle greed. "All at it and always at It" will bring us all to the best times we have ever had. We must help every man and every instituUv.p that is worthy of help, for only in that way shall we help rurselves. America Is all right. So are Americans. Let no cne mistake the pains of progress fcr symptoms of disease and decay.

Swift & Company realize that taste is a matter of the individual; therefore, they make both Premium Oleomargarine and Gem Nut Margarine. Both products are equally pure and delicious. They are made from different ingredients and differ slightly in flavor to please individual taste. Their delicate flavor makes them suitable for serving at table; their fine shortening qualities make them favorites wherever good cooks turn out superior cakes and pastries. The fact that they are most moderately priced as well as most nutritious is an added advantage. Both products share in the advantages of the famous Swift system of wide distribution. Both are made in fourteen conveniently located factories, so both are fresh, pure, and delicious when they reach you. Not a hand touches either product in manufacture or in packing. !
