BONUS OR A STEADY JOB? ff the ex-service man were given the choice and new that he cculd have but one or the other and not born, which would ho choose a good, big bonus, or a steady Job? It may be that he never will face this choke, Ue may want both. But whether all ex-service men want a boiius is In doubt, while there is no doubt Oiat all ex-service men waut every out-of-work exservice man provided with a gocd steady job. This Is by way of preface to eay'ng that some business men .--re afraid that the first effect of extra taxation for :.onus paying would ba to chill business, which would mean a tendency to increase unemployment, and that is something no ex-service man wants, whether ho is gainfully employed or not. It is an aaiom that tha best way tc provide for those whom the nation owes an inextinguishable debt of gratitude is to give that governmental protection and governmental treatment of business that will make business, and therefore the whole people, most sanely proswrous. The average ex-service man without a doubt wants nothing more than an opportunity to work as his talents permit- He wants his buddies who were wounded, who were made unequal to the task of self-suport by the war, cared for to the limit, and every man and woman in the United States who was not In the army or navy work in tha war must earnestly want the same thins. But, that having been done, the average exservice man must surely want that condition of prosperity that will give him hi3 chance to make a gocd living for himseir and for his family. If he shou'd have to choose between a bonus and a job, he wou.a in 99 per cent of instances choose the job. If business is likely to be chilled by the benus plan cf congress, Jobs will naturally be less in number than they are new aad they are certainly not any too plentiful at this time. The cannoj cannot go right along giving bonuses one right after the other; the thing that apparently Is mcst desirable is the creation, as speedily as possible, of a condition that will give very able-bodied ex-servlc man la the country opportunity to support himself. We have learned what interdependence there is in the business world fcr all Americans, we have tearnad the folly of pumped-up prosperity. The best gift toat the natiioa could maka to it3 former soldiers 13 not to hand thera a bunch of money (to ba spent in a few dans, weeks or months) and then forget them. The best way to show appreciation cf their 6errices ij to r ticourage business so that there will be jobs open, and therefore pay envelopes and therefore means to order goods from the factories and farms, and therefore, prosperity. And all th!s rot for a few days, weeks or months, brtt steadtly. day after day, until there is ao longer the "eeliTig of distress in any ex-service man's heart because of the present lack of a Job or tho fear lest tha

fccott to his Bun-in-Ltv as he lay dyiug. His remark
had been impe. fectly 'caught. "Which book do you titsiie".'" he was askud. "How can you fee?" replied the gieat writer. " There is only one book." And after the reading of the chapter pc. Haying the rest that is laid up for those that love God, Sir Walter
remaiked: "Well, that's a gieat comio. t." The Bibla 'has been the solace and stay of the world's greatest as well as the humblest of men. I With the rise of the so-called "higher criticism" and (be more minute examination and analysis of the origin and Interpretation of the Scriptuies on a ecldly scientific basis, fears had been expressed lest the Bible would come to mean less to mankind. There have been no practical indications of such a tendency. It Is still the Book of Books, a lamp unto tha feet and a light unto the path of those who travel through
this perplexing world.
HARDING ON PRIMARIES. President Harding in a speech at Washington strongly intimated that the eld convention plan of the
republican party was superior to the present uniform primary system, and in this view he will have large .support among those who have watched the operation of an alleged reform in nomination of candidates fcr public office. So long as the responsibility of nominations was placed upon party leaders their selfish interest alone to say nothing of the public interest- dicItated the selection of proper nominees. Under the uniform primary, however, there is no I direct responsibility, and any one can shy hl3 castor
into the ring and become a candidate without regard to fitness. Frequently the result of this free-for-all method is the nomination of utterly unfit candidates, who wabble thrcugh and are placed upon party tickets, not infrequently winning a place on the ticket of a party with which they have never been affiliated. Also, the uniform system invites place to the rich roan in politics as against the poor man who may be inevery way better qualified for the public serviie. It does not follow, of course, that the old convention system was always satisfatory. Many mistakes were made through the action of delegates, but If anybody imagines that the uniform primary has affected any rtforin, be need only study some of the nominations of recent yeaxB to ba disillusioned on this point.
