Dr. Wegener, a celebrated German geologist, tells the British Association that the American continent Is moving and widening the distance between Itself and Europe. Strange action fcra continent, which ought, above all things, to be stable and to stand hitched. And yet geology tells that the far off history of this old world witnessed many things almost as strange. Snail shells on top of mountains prove that where the mountains are was once the bottom of the sea. The coal mines of Pennsylvania are easier to work because long ago the old earth humped its back and made the Appalachian ridge. So maybe the German savant is right. But in effect the truth of this don't amount to much to anyone now alive. Of much greater importance is the relation of two continents in ths affairs of men- The fact that America has gfSr$!i rkh' while Europe has become nearly bankrupt is of more consequence. The fact that these people who are proud of a much older civilization and culture than ours owe us upwards of $11,000,000,000 is more likely to cause a dangerous split than any movement of the continent. There ought to be wisdom enough among these enlightened peoples to begin now to build a bridge. The book people say there Is a big demand for translations. That will help tear down the barriera of language. Tha people on either side of the Atlantic will get much farther seeking to- give each other the BClsfe deal than they will by stewing over a continental drift.

U. S. HAS DONE ITS PART. To those critics, domestic as well as foreign, who persist in maintaining that the United States has not done and is not doing is full part in sustaining and stabilizing the finances of the'world, the fact brought forward by the comptroller of the currency in an address to the Indiana Bankers Association give a most convincing reply. Mr. Crissinger, with the detailed figures before him, had no difficulty in showing that in the last eight years, or since August 14, 1914, America has contributed to the financing of the outside world no less gigantic a total that $22,751,000,000. This sum, which takes, no account of the millions expended in charity pure and simple, is made up of government loans and unpaid interest thereon, of commercial credits extended abroad, of American securities repurchased, of dollar securities bought, of foreign money securities sold in this country and of foreign currencies bought by America. No one who knows the facts can with justice impugn the conduct of America either during ro since the war. On the contrary, as the comptroller put It, If we ourselves fully appreciated our contribution, or if we were given fair credit for it by other peoples, "it would win us the bright guerdon of helpfulness, of willing co-operation and splendid unselfishness." More, indeed, may remain to be done; but, limiting consideration to the eight years now under review no candH minded person looking at the record as it stands, can deny that America has fully done its part.

The decision of Sweden ' to remain wet prompts a query whether this is not what has teen ailing her matches all these years.

OUTFLAPPING THE FLAPPER. Our flappers may be bad enough, but let us comfort ourselves with the thought that they might be worse. As misery loves company, so do we gain comfort from the thought that others are worse off than ourselves although this ought to make us unhappy. So, while we may deplore the paint and powder, the Hottentot hair, and all the other follies of our own girls, there is something still more objectionable which they have not yet done perhaps only because they have not thought of It, and when it is called to their attention they may take it up. This is having themselves tattooed. Tattooing has become such a cnaze among young girls of England, according to reports, that local authorities are seeking powers to make it illegal to tattoo girls under 21 years of age. The war, as usual, is blamed for the tattoo craze, which is more prevalent in towns wehere soldiers and sailors are stationed. Girls who have these heroes for lovers are said to have emblems supposed to symbolize undying love and faith tattcced on their arms and chests.

NOBODY YET ha3 referred to women's fall styles as the gayety of notions.

"Prices are away down and here You have everything mnch higher Than two or three weeks ago. Oranges, potatoes, sufrarJ3our Everything you have is higher." "Where do you p-pt that stuff About low prices?" asked the man. "It was in a Washington dispatch In the newspapers A day or two asro." "Well, well! Is that so?" he said.
