After discounting the romantic attraction of personality there is slight reason why Ignace Jan Paderewski should seek the presidency of Poland or why Poland should elect him. That Paderewski's patriotism is of the loftiest idealism none doubts. But Poland is richer in patriots today than the world is in pianists of the calibre of Paderewski. ; In the hour of Poland's rebirth there was much that was splendid in sacrifice and helpfulness when all patriots, Paderewski among th rest, abandoned everything in support of the sublime cause of freedom. But that hour is passed, and the perpetuation of the Polish states rests no longer on resistance to outside aggression, but on Polish statecraft as it adopts good government. The summons of today is for practical achievements. These may be attained most speedily by practical leaders, whose idealism is tempered by long patience with the fluctuating public sentiment and equal patience in unraveling the nnumerable problems involved in inter

national relations as well as domestic order and prosperity the world over. Paderewski is first of all an artist. Even with his piano kindling wood he remains the artist. He can not help that. Indeed it is his glory, the sign of his particular genius. His fame should be content, and it is a question whether the harassing experience of responsible public life would enhance either his greatness or his happiness, as surely his official ex-

a 4 '

perience at rans must nave taugnt mm. The great pianist deserves an honorable twilight in which his genius may continue to illuminate the cultural capacty of his art. UNCLE SAM'S GOLD PILE. Directors of the United States mints have 'changed and with them the custody of $3,600,000,000 of gold. That -metal represents a third of the world's supply and as the news writers in Washington say, it is a fortune that puts to shame the wealth of Midas, Croesus and any other fabulous wealth in the world's history. It is impossible for the average person to visualize this tremendous heap of precious metal. The thoughtless will regard it as evidence of America's stupendous leadership in finance and yet its ownership is not an unmixed

blessing. It is partly because the United States

owns a third of the world's gold supply that business s dull and international trade prostrated. Here is another illustration of the worth-lessness-on money unless it is working. A miser may get some sort of satisfaction from draining his dollars through his fingers, but horded wealth has no other value than the miser's hideous mirth. Money to be efficient must be in motion. America would be infinitely better off from a trade standpoint if it had less than $3,600,000.000 in gold. It has about all it can get, more than it wants. It would prefer if through legitimate business transactions it could distribute it. That would make factories hum and ships plough the deep. As it is, it burdens rather than buoys business.

MYSTERY OF THE CYCLOPS. It is four years since the Cyclops, United States naval collcr, left the port of Barbados, never to be heard from again. She was on her way back to this country from South America and had stopped at Barbados. The war was then on and we were in it. The Cyclops was traveling one of the regular ocean lanes where there was plenty of traffic to and from the West Indian ports. The assumption was that she was only another of the numerous victims of German "frightfulness," although no enemy submarines had been observed in that vicinity. After the war the German government officially disclaimed any knowledge of what had happened to her. Our government conducted investigations along several different lines without result. With the invention of "wireless" it was said there would be no more additions to the long list of missing ships. A vessel equipped with Marconi's device, if in. trouble, could at least make its plight known, even if rescue should not arrive in time. The Cyclops, of course, was thus equipped, but whatever the form of disaster it was so sudden and unexpected as to give no 'time for sending out a mes

sage, in tne case or an internal explosion

some pieces of wreckage are generally found.

But there has never been a trace of the Cyclops.

There is a popular impression that "murder will out," but there have been many cases of the disappearance of ships that have never been ex

plained.

With the passing of each year the likeli

hood of solving the mystery of the Cyclops be

comes more remote. It is said that among the

relatives of the 300 persons who composed her

ship's company there are some who have never

given up hope. It is a quality that "springs

eternal in the human' breast," but there was never less warrant for it, apparently, than in

the case of the luckless Cyclops.

LLOYD GEORGE, while on a visit to a

farm, helped plant potatoes. And then, again.

there are some other matters that are already up.

WHILE ATTENDING a funeral in a New

NEVER before has the amazing Knight sleeve-valve motor been available in so fine a. car at so low a price. Europe uses the Knight motor in her most famous and expensive cars. Now

The Willys-Knight motor is the highest development of th Knight sliding sleeve-valve principle. It gets more power out of lets gas than any other motor of its size and weight. It is free from valve trouble, free from carbon trouble, smooth, quiet, flexible. Scientific tests and driver experience show that it grows more powerful with use. And its lifelimit has never yet been ascertained.
