Waiting for Federal Refraining Between four and six thousand disabled soldiers, sailors and marines are waiting for training until their compensation is settled upon by the war risk insurance bureau. Under the present bill no disabled man can be retrained by the federal board for vocational education until he has been declared compensable by the war risk insurance bureau. This holds thousands of men off from beginning training while they are in the humor for it, and there is real danger that they may in the meantime yield to the temptation to settle into some soft job tfcat will not get them ianywhere in the end. The proposed amendment is that any person who is honorably discharged from the army or jiavy with an existing disability incurred in service shall be eligible for training, provided his handicap can not be overcome otherwise. When this bill is passed, these thousands of men may be placed in training immediately, each man receiving seventy-five dollars a month, and his dependents, if he has any, receiving an additional 6 urn to be regulated by the number of them and their relationship. The bill has already passed the senate and has been referred to a committee jpf the house.

Industrial Relations : "Between the Standard Oil company, about which Ida M. Tarbell wrote some fifteen years ago -the great, voracious monster, which brooked no opposition in its dark machinations -and the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), which has recently evolved a new plan of industrial relations, there is little in common," says the Indianapolis News. "The one recognized no obligation to anything but the quality of its product and the sanctity of its monopoly, the other recognizes the right of its employes to a voice in the determination of their relation to the company. This company has never been a pioneer along such lines,

hence its present policy is significant. "Under tne new plan, as outlined in a pamphlet issued to employes, the latter are to elect representatives to a joint gneral committee, which, together with representatives of the management, is to pass on such matters as Vages, hours, employment and working conditions; safety and prevention of accidents ; housing, domestic economies and living conditions ; sanitation and health; works practice, methods and economies; education and publications; recreation, athletics and entertainment ; and any other matters of mutual interest to" employes and management or of specical interest to employes This is a comprehensive program. It also includes a liberal system of annuities under which employes of long teervice are automatically retired and taken care of at the expense of the company. "By various means, such as bonuses, profit-

sharing, councils, pension systems, etc, many employers have relinquished some of the prerogatives once regarded as exclusively the property of the employer. American industry has thus in

inany cases approached the soviet idea a good deal more closely than is recognized by irrational agitators. The Russian idea, as bawled around this country by industrial freebooters, calls for the enslavement of the directing classes. It would put the Standard Oil Company, for instance, back where it was, only with the employes playing the tyrant. It is not calculated to eliminate tyranny, but to substitute mass tyranny for class tyranny. Inevitably, then, it will feed on its own spawn which is the cause of its : troubles in Russia. It is believed that as long as American industrial relations are dominated by spirit of which the case mentioned is an example, the only people in this country who need fear ; the soviet are those employers who are still clinging to outgrown ideas about capital and labor."

Yes It's Hot The Kansas City Star editorially offers this consolation for those who are sorely afflicted by the hot weather:

About this time sometimes a little earlier; and sometimes a little later It is well to expect! hot weather. As far back as our somewhat mea-i

ger history of this planet goes, there has been evi

1

tudes to experience hot weather at some time j during the period of the year through which we j are now passing. ' '; j

It is a good idea to keep this fact in mind. It will help to prevent us being unduly' surprised when it gets hot in summer. Sometimes we meet persons who speak of it being hot in a tone that seems to imply an expectation that June would produce some of the heaviest snows of the winter. It would be uncandid to attempt to maintain that hot weather, when protracted, is in every way agreeable. It is not. We stick to our clothes, or vice versa, we perspire "more than is pleasant or than seems to be necessary to health and our minds dwell upon cool scenes by ocean or mountain with a persistence not always conducive to the best mental or physical effort. Still, the good old summer time is not without its compensations. We move out of our houses to our porches and yards, and that is one of the best things we do in the entire course of the four seasons. If we lived in houses all the year round there is no telling what kind of a race we would become. We might turn into Germans or something. In the house we run into each other too much. We get the corner habit, or the fireside habit or the habit of thinking that nobody else must form any habit that conflicts with our habits. There is less danger of that when we are porch dwellers. We call across from porch to porch when we never would think of doing such a thing from window to window. We get to hear

our neighbors' music boxes. We see each other without coats, which is a tremendous social barrier out of the way. These things all bring us a little closer to Nature and Walt Whitman, both of which are good when not too close. Let's take hot weather (since we have to) and reflect that it's part of the scheme. It's good for wheat and amusement parks. It teaches us to take care of ourselves, which is important. Knowledge begets knowledge and the world is more and more. This time of year it is very likely to get more and more hot, which is our chance to learn how to

keep more and more cool and thus, by little and little, better our condition as we have been doing since our race began. Wars Then and Now In times past when the country was in danger, and wars had to be fought, the United States army was recruited almost entirely from volunteers. The brave and the patriotic rushed to the colors to do whatever task was needed for the defense of the flag, and then go home. The American Revolution was successfully fought by volunteers who went back to the farms for their

spring plowing. These soldiers had dropped their

occupations only when their own firesides were threatened, but it took the United States eight years to win the American Revolution. This war was fought on a different basis. The people of the United States decided to organize to win the war in the shortest possible time. Through congress and the president the

people of the United States established the draft and universal military service for the duration of the war. An army of four million men was mobilized by the government, trained and equipped, and sent to France. We won the war sooner than we expected about three years sooner. And now that the great army is being demobilized at the rate of 200,000 to 300,000 a month, the soldiers cannot be left to drift back into jobs. The work of getting jobs for the soldiers and sailors who have lately served the United States, has been organized. The United States government is guiding this work. Under the guidance of Colonel, Arthur Woods, former police commissioner of the city of New York, and now assistant to the secretary of war, all the federal departments, the governors of all the states and the mayors of the principal cities are cooperating to give soldierless jobs to the jobless soldiers.

"THE PILGRIM'S PROGRESS" By JOHN BUNYAN (Condensation by Basil King)

As I walked through tfce wilderness of titis world I lighted on a certain place where was a Den and laid rae down to sleep. As I slept I dreamed a dream. I saw a man clothed with rags, a book in his hand, and a burden on his back. Reading in the book, he brake out with a cry: "What shall I do to be saved?" Going home he opened his trouble to his wife and children, who at first pitied but presently chided him. This continuing for many days, he walked in the fields where he saw coming to him a man named Evangelist, who advised him to flee the City of Destruction, which was to be burnt with fire and brimstone, and make for the City of Zion. Then was there much ado in the family of Christian, for such was his name, that he should run from his home on a way which all knew to be perilous. Two of his neighbors did Christian implore to accompany him. The name of the one was Obstinate, that of the other Pliable. "What." cried Obstinate, "leave our friends and comforts behind us?" But Pliable went with him for a space, till they reached a quag named the Slough of Despond. Having wallowed here for a time Pliable, getting out on the side nearest to his home, turned back. But Christian struggling on alone one Help came to his rescue, and led him to solid ground. . Here as Christian was walking he espied afar off a Mr. Worldly Wiseman, of the town of Carnal Policy. To his questions as to where he would be

going Christian sepaed that sought

the fiend was like to have worsted the Pilgrim had it not been for the wea pons furnished him from their armory by the fair damsels Jn the castle Beautiful. The battle being- over there came a hand with eome of the leaves of the Tree of Life, wherewith Christian stanched his wounds. Now at the end of this Valley was another still more dread called the Valley of the Shadow of Death. On Its right was a very deep ditch into which the blind have led the blind la all ages, while on the left was a dangerous quag, the which if even a good man were to fall into it be could find no bottom for his foot to stand on. Good Christian was the more put to it seeing that the pathway was ex

ceeding narrow, and as he went on hej

sighed bitterly. About the middle of this Valley was there also the mouth of Hell, out of which came flame and smoke. When the fiends came up to this entrance he cried out la a vehement voice, "I will walk In the strength of the Lord God," whereat they gave back. Having passed through this Valley be came up with his friend Faithful, who had, though Christian knew it not, followed him out of the City of Destruction. Then was there much discourse between tho two Pilgrims as to the perils through which they bid come, with faithful telling of his escape from Jfadam Wanton, as well as from the old maa with the three daughters, the Lust of the Flesh, the Lust of the Eyes and the Pride of Life.

Also did Faithful tel of his encounters

means to be rid of the burden on his i with Arrogancy, Pride, 'and Worldly

back. "Why in yonder village, Moral- Glory. But the worst of them all was

ity,' said the getleman.. "there dwells one whose name is Legality, and who

hath a pretty young man, Civility, to his son. These will ease thee of thy burden." So saying he directed Christian to a high hill, the which, on his reaching it, bent over so much that it was like to fall on him and bury him. i Now Christian f-began to be sorry that he had taken Mr. Worldly Wiseman's counsel; whereupon he again saw Evangelist, who encouraged him to go back and seek the Gate for which he had been making when urged to go out of the way. So in process of time Christian got up to this Gate, over which was written, "Knock and it shall be openGd unto you." He knofked therefore, and one named Good-will came to answer. Then did Christian recite the perils through which he had come in seeking to be rid of his burden. "Be content to bear it," said Good-will, until thou come to the place of deliverence, for there it wil fall off of itself." So was he sent on his way again, walking along a road which ended in a cross and a sepulcher. I saw in my

dream that as he came up with the cross his hurden loosed from his back

till it fell into the sepulcher, where saw it no more.

Immigration Law Revision

O

From the Indianapolis News. '

NE of the questions that has been listed by the

house committee on order of business for early consideration concerns immigration. There are

conflicting ideas in congress as to what action should be taken, but there is no difference of opinion as to the need of radical revision of the immigration laws. The meshes of the existing Immigration net designed to keep out undesirables are so coarse that, while some kinds of immigrants are excluded, a great many get In who are either a menace or a burden, or both, to the country It is the urgent need for a remedy of this condition that makes prompt action on the immigration question so important. In several bills that have been prepared on the subject are included provisions for complete suspension of Immigration during periods varying from two to five years, and it la said that Chairman Johasoa, of the house Immigration committee, will, after the present hearings are concluded, prepare an act to exclude immigrants for at least two years. Other congressmen do not favor .complete exclusion" for any period, but would make the admission laws extremely stringent. The advisability of completely excluding immigrants for any length of time is extremely doubtfuL During the war Immigration dwindleld until la the last year or twq It has amounted to almost nothing, aad we are short

some millions of citizens that we should have had if hostilities had not disturbed the routine order of affairs. In addition to this, government investigations have shown that about 1,300,000 foreigners of our population many of them from the Indiana steel district are preparing to return to their home countries. All this taken together leaves us with a shortage of population at a time when we have an Increasing amount of work to k. If we shut off Immigration entirely It will result In a practically increasing shortage as the demand for workers Increases.. There is no doubt, however, that a change In the law so that Immigrants shall be required, to undergo the most rigid Inspection at the ports of entry is sorely needed. Most of the immigrants that come to us make desirable citizens. It is only the minority that makes trouble. If we can exclude this minority we shall suffer no immigration ills, as it has never been, and probably never will be, the number, but the quality, of immigrants that burdens us. Every immigrant should be judged, as to his character as well as to his. health, and the steamship companies should be required to return those rejected.

This would make them more careful in booking their

passengers, and would enable America to remain a haven for the downtrodden who wish to rise through honest and industrious efforts.

with Shame, a bold-faced fellow who would never have done speaking

against all good men and things. Then I saw in my dream that they presently came to the town of Vanity, where is a fair kept called Vanity Fair. Her is there at all times much noise and folly, with the buying and selling of such foolish wares as have given the town its fame. The people of the fair, taking the Pilgrims for outlandish men and bedlams, made a great gazing at them. Likewise were thfv not. -a. littlo. amused that Chris

by all their merchandise, did speak exhortingly. Much hubbub did follow thereon, during which the Pilgrims were cast into Jail. At a convenient time they were brought forth to trial before the Lord Hategood, witness being given against them by such base fellows as Envy, Superstition and Pickthank. Among the jurors were Mr. Nogood, Mr. Malice, Mr. Lovclust, and suchlike, by whom good Faithful was condemned. After much persecution they burned him to ashes at the stake, whereat I saw ia my dream that a chariot with horses carried him up to the Celestial Gate by the nearest way.

Death. .There was no bridge to go over it, and the River wa deep. At sight thereof the Pilgrims were much 6tunaed, asking if there was no other way. ,r Being told there was coe they addressed themselves to the water. Having entered it Christian began to sink; but Hopeful cried, "Be of good cheer, my brother, I feel the bottom." But as for Christian a great darkness and horror fell upon him, in

which he was troubled by hobgoblins

ana evu spirits. Hopeful, tnererore, had much ado to keep his friend's head above water, repeating to him the words of the roil. "When thou passest through the waters I -will be with you." Thus after much struggle they got over. Now the City stood on a mighty hill; but up that bill the Pilgrims went with ease because they had two Shining Ones to lead them. Also they left their mortal garments ; behind them In the flood. "You are going now," said the Shining Ones, as they climbed, "to the Paradise of God, wherein you shall 6ee the Tree of Ufa, and eat of the fruits thereof." And while they were drawing toward the Gate behold a company of the Heavenly Host came out to meet them, some before, some behind, and some oo the right end , left, continually sounding as they went with melodious noises, so that the sight was as If Heaven itself had come down to meet them. Now I eaw la my dream that these two Pilgrims went ia at the Gate, and

lo, as they entered, they were transfigured, and bad raiment given them that shone like gold- There were also that met them with harps and crowns, and all the bells ia the City rang for alrth, while It was said, "Enter ye iato the Joy of the Lord." Now just as the Gates were opened to let the men ia I looked ia after them, and behold the City shone like the sun. In the streets walked many men with crowns oa their heads, and golden harps to sing praises withal. After that they shut up the Gates, which, when I had seen it, I wish myself among the Redeemed. As J was In my dream, I saw Christiana, she that was wife to Christian was much broken by her ungodly carriages to the good maa who had now come to the Celestial City. Calling to

remembrance his restless groans and brinish tears she resolved to go after him. With that her four boys fell to weeping aad cried that tney would go with ber. On thiB one came to her house and said, "Christiana, here is a letter for thee which I have brought from thy husband's King." She found that it smelled after the manner of the best perfume and was written in let ters of gold. Henceforth she carried It In her bosom, reading it to herself and her children till they bad got most of it by rote of heart. So she likewise went out oa he journey to the Celestial City, passing through triala similar to those of her good man. and guided by one Mr. Greatbeart. Though many dissuaded her. such as Mxs. Timorous, Mrs Light, mind, Mrs. Love-the-flesh, Mrs. Know, nothing, aad Madam Bubble, yet

pressed she on, arriving like good Christian himself at the River of Death. Here when she was come the road was thronged with people to see her cross. All the banks, too, beyond the River wera full of horses as.d chariots which were come down from above to accompany her to the City Gate. So, with a beckon of farewell to those that followed, she entered the River. The last words she was heard to utter were, "Lord, I come to be with thee." Then her children and friends returned to their place, for that those who waited for Christana had carried her out of their sight. But she went in and entered at the Gate with all the ceremonies of joy that had welcomed good Christian before her. "The Last Days of Pompeii," by Bulwer Lytton, condensed by Professor

Then Christian gave three leaps for; so that he went on his way ia comjoy and went on singing, coming to ! pany with one Hopeful who had f olthe hill Difficulty.

running amain. These were Mistrust and Timorous, who warned him to go back since there were lions in the day. Then was Christian in a great quandary, since to go back to his own city would mean to be burnt with fire and brimston, while to go on would be to risk death at the mouths of lions. Thus troubled he sounght comfort in reading in his roll, but lo! it was not in his bosom. Then was much time lost whila Christian returned to the arbor to find his book; but while he was thus bewailing his miscarriage he lifted up his eyes and saw a stately palace, the name of which was Beautiful. Here dwelt the damsels Discretion. Prudence, Piety and Charity, who made Christian welcome, laying him in the chamber called Peace. Next day they showed him the armory of their house, as well as such ancient treasures as Moses's rod, the hammer and nail with which Jael slew Sisera, and the Jaw-bone with which Samson did mighty feats. Likewise did they take him to the top of their house and bid him look at the pleasant countries of the Delectable Mountains and Emmanuel's Land. "When thou comest there," said they, "thou mayest see the Gate of the Celestial City." Going on from thence he entered the Valley of Humiliation, where met him the foul fiend, Apollyon. Apollyoa claiming Christian as his subject the latter could In no wise deny the fact, seing that he bad been bora ia the City of Destructioa over which the monster ruled. Nevertheless Christian renounced his allegiance to this wicked prince, claiming that he had sworn himself to the King of rinces who dwelt in the City of Zion. Then ensued a dreadful fight between Christian and the fiend, during which

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK

THE TOUCH ;OF THE YEARS Time 13 the master painter. Every delicate tint every marvelous combination- every mysterious mixture, he understands. Time paints faces, bodies, cities and nations. But the most marvelous pictures of all are those which he paints cpon the lines and planes of peoples' faces. His brush is the touch of the years. And while Time does the actual painting and picturing, he always consults with the works with and lives with the one whose picture be paints. Sometimes he chisels furrows across great and noble brows, each with a million meanings. Sometimes he touches jet and makes it silver -sometimes changes summer to winter. But although Time is Inexorable, he is very kind and gentle and tender. Age has nothing to do with Time. For with age, Time is forever and there is ao measurement of space. Time is no respecter of persons or circumstance. Every face and every body bears his stamp. Sometimes that stamp is beautiful aad sometimes not But if you will it so, Time will always make what be leaves, good aad beautiful. Your eyes may reflect something more wonderful than any work of Raphael. Across every plane ot your face may wander the touches of the years that man happiness and inspiration and gladness to everyone who looks at you. Never miad what the mirror says. Keep playing ia the yard of youth aad your heart will take care of everything else.
