DOLLAR WATCHES Dollar watches are back on the market again. During the war the prices went up, along with the prices of everything else, and it is a good indication that we are back to normalcy when one round hard dollar can be exchanged for one round hard time-piece. Most of us have owned dollar watches at one time or another. We carry them with the same feeling that we crank up the old flivver,

while the neighbors across the street drive off in their super eight with the cutout wide open. The returned watch probably is about the same quality as the old ones were. But it is worth more, for one fair reason. Enclosed with h, on the guarantee slip, is a bit of homely philosophy. It is this: Treat this watch like an expensive one, and it will give you good service." The unknown who sends out that message with the dollar watch knows something. He knows that if you treat your wife like a princess, she will act becoming to the role. If you are courteous to your neighbor, he will go out of his way to do you a favor. If you smile when you meet folk they will genuinely welcome you. People and things are apt to take your own valuation. Set it high and they will respond. Yes, the watch is worth a dollar, and the watchmaker's philosophy is worth a fortune to him who knows how to employ it.

truest heroes. A Scientist belongs to no country exclusively. He gains, as a rule, no great reward for his performance. Remember the words of the great Pasteur, when all the world scoffed at his ideas: "I never knew I had so many enemies." It is one of the tragedies of true greatness that appreciation comes too late.

A HERO OF SCIENCE There is scarcely an American who is is not familiar at least with the name of Louis Pasteur, the great French scientist. That remarkably simple process which our milk is purified bears his name. But his medical accomplishments are even more far-reaching in their daily effect on our lives. It is welcome to note that France this autumn will celebrate the contennial of Pasteur's birth. The hundredth anniversary of the death of Napoleon last year was a festive occasion, but dispatches from Paris point out that it was greeted with nothing like the enthusiasm evinced over Pasteur. This is the more remarkable, because men of science seldom are held above great warriors in the popular estimation. Napoleon always has been looked upon as the idol of France. Can it be possible that the present generation has seen the clay feet? Not destroyers, but upbuilders, such as Pasteur was, are the world's

THAT 17-POUND TROUT None suspected William Gibbs McAdoo was so unsophisticated but here he is running his presidential campaign machine into the creek. The story of his supppsed exploit is cornmendably brief. Fishing off a raft in the Snake river, he said he hooked something. While it did not look like a nomination, surveying his catch through, one doubts not, rose-colored

glasses, he discerned a rainbow trout of suchj

alleged dimensions that Yellowstone Park fishermen are still dumb with envy, not at the size

of the fish but at the size cf the story, and Mr. McAdoo departed, not by undue compulsion one hopes, for California. Now how far do you suppose a candidate will go who begins by telling fish stories? Someone, you may be sure, will drag that 17pound whopper across the campaign trail at the inopportune moment. The public is content with comparatively little in public men, but veracity, or at least a show of it is insisted on. Mr.

McAdoo runs the immediate risk of alienating all the thousands respectable enough to object to termino-logical inexactitudes. Mr. McAdoo should know, at his age that bragging about catching record fish is likely to get him the hook. No doubt by now he himself believes he caught it.

BEAUTY AND BOBBED HAIR. Bonnie Murray, prettiest girl in Iowa, doesn't use rouge, smoke cigarets or care for bobbed hair. In the Atlantic City beauty contest only three of the 54 girls entered had bobbed hair. In both contests it was the boast that the judges were "representative," so girls with bobbed hair should not let the decisions worry them. "Representative" in this instance means conservative, that is, that the person so described has accepted existing standards of beauty as well as of other things. Only the radical, the artist and adventurer find loveliness in strange things. Styles come and go, but new gowns are always uncomfortable to the wearers and appear odd to beholders. A man seldom likes a hat until he has had it long enough to become accustomed to it. We take our standards ready made and change them only when they do not apply to things around us. Hence representative judges could not be expected to look favorably upon that which is new and outside the range of established rules governing degrees of beauty. Still, we like Bonnie Murray. She has expressed her convictions modestly, without fear of being called a prude or being held in contempt by her sisters. She intends to use her $1,000 prize to help pay her way through college. Maybe she will learn to use rouge and eventually will bob her hair, and maybe she won't. Anyway, she will say what she thinks, and that is more important.

The Telephone Instrument The telephone is a highly sensitive, delicately adjusted instrument. The quality of its service depends, in a measure, upon careful use. As with your watch or automobile, the more care the better results. Among the "out-of-order", reports received by the company, many result from the carelessness of the users. A telephone may fall from desk or stand, breaking the mouthpiece or throwing the apparatus out of adjustment. The cord may become twisted, which means a "noisy" line. A damp cloth laid on the cord or the moisture from an open window may cause a "short circuit" and interrupt the service. Care will avoid all these things. In protecting the telephone equipment you are protecting your own service.

"ALLIES MUST YIELD CONSTANTINOPLE OR FACE A HOLY WAR"

MaJ. Gen. Sir Charles Townshend. The allies must . grant Turkey's demands for the return o Constantinople or face a "holy war," in the opinion of Maj. Gen. Sir Charles Townshend, British hero of Kut el Araara. He issued this warning: on his recent return to London from Turkish headquarters, where he conferred with Mustapha Kemal Pasha, leader of the conquest-mad Turks.

PERHAPS the pleaasaritest wey TO spend an early fall day IS to stand around watching SOMEONE else engaged in MANUAL labor giving a little ADVICE occasionally OR even oftener.
