- NO MEDAL FOR HIM ...Since mankind, began to worship heroes song and story and decoration have testified to the xrorld's admiration for those who have riskci their lives, killing others. Warriors from Horatkis at the bridge to Sergeant York have won unalloyed praise of all men for bravery. There will be none at this time to question the. bestowal of honors upon those whose defense of home and country has inspired deeds of exalted courage. But it seems strange that civilization with its slow realization ' that peace is better than war has not come to honor those who risk their lives to save others, with as ardent an emotion as ftarSvlth which "it pays tribute to" those who die in killing others. " The death of Dr. Royal Whitenack, in Newark, N. J .'is announced." For 10 years, since the deat.h..sf his own child, Dr. Whitenack had devoted his life to-saving babies-' lives. Sixty per eent of his cases afford no fee. . In many others the feewas nominal. He was specialist of

wiqe reputation. In tenements and hovels of the cities of eastern New Jersey there are hundreds of children whose lives testify to his skill. A few weeks ago he was treating a child when germs lodged in the -glands of the doctor's own throat. Eleven transfusions of blood, two operations and the service of 21 brother physicians who felt that he could not be spared were involved in the fight for his life. No congressional medal will testify to future times of his work, with its -constant risk and final sacrifice that others might live.

WHO LICKED STEINMETZ Does anyone recall the name of the gentleman who whipped Charles P. Steinmetz for state engineer in New York last month? Probably not many men in that state could tell you right off the bat, not even the fellows who voted the victor into office" Will Rodgers, the cowboysage, confesses his ignorance, but observers that undoubtedly "he doesn't 'lenow the difference between a short circuit and long shot." Whoevef he is, the man should step forward

and let the world look 'at him, for anyone who

I has more equipment than Mr. Steinmetz for any engineering job is an important person. However, there is no great possibility tha,t he lias or is, for if he had or did his name would be more extensively known. His election is a rather sad commentary on the state of mind of voters who do their political -shopping on the strength of party labels. What possible party stamp can be a better guarantee of capacity than the name of Charles P. Steinmetz, what token of vast engineering skill is implied in a party title that exceeds the equipment of Steinmetz? There must be one, or the eminent engineer would not have perished politically. Hereattcr let it be known, then, that the name of a party following that a candidate in Mr. Steinmetz' state is the equivalent of a post-graduate degree in engineering and all other sciences, implying beyond that of any man ordinarily, regarded as the best engineer in the state. And, again, docs anyone recall the name of the man of this description who licked Steinmetz?

AT LAST! "If I were an American I wouldn't take control of a single acre in Europe. Yo'u not obliged to do this. Keep out of it." Thus spoke Sir Gilbert Parker to' a New York audience. It is refreshing to hear a visitor to our shores speak sound sense of that sort. The theme of practically all of our foreign friends has been precisely the opposite. Clcmenceau, the most famous of them all, does not mince words in accusing the United States of deserting Europe, and in urging us to assume the solution of all the problems that now afflict that continent. It is encouraging to know that there is a division of foreign thought on the subject.
