Let Common Sense Assert Itself Amid the turmoil and shouting of the social unrest is still heard the voice of common sense. Sane and conservative financiers and honest and conscientious labor leaders are appealing to this factor of our national consciousness to solve the struggle that is keeping the country disturbed. No one was surprised at the industrial and social unrest which followed the war. This was expected. The world could not have indulged in five years of destruction and then have settled back to pre-war conditions without a disturbed transition. "War has aroused all the slumbering cave man which exists in every individual, exalting force rather than reason and compromise," says the Indianapolis Star in an analysis of the situation. "Thousands who entered new industrial fields at inflated standards of compensation are loath to return to the comparatively dull rou

tine of the old pre-war grooves. The readjustment cannot be effected quickly nor can it be accomplished in an orderly manner wholly by process of legislation. The time required will be in direct proportion to the magnitude of the great war over all previous conflicts. In other words, a psychological as well as an economic readjustment is necessary which goes beyond the question of wages and price levels." The common sense of American citizenship will soon discover the right way out of the muddle. One of the most impressive developments has been the disposition of both sides to recognize the element of justice and fair play as a principle that must guide in seeking a solution. Labor leaders are beginning to concede that capi-

and guided by good American methods. Our people have always believed in fair play and justice. They have been quick to resent and punish injustice and intolerance. They may listen with composure to the demagogue and permit the radical to preach his false doctrines, but in the crucial hour of decision they have always stood on the side of right and have cast aside the prophet who would lead them to disaster.

The Jewish Relief Campaign The campaign to raise money for Jewish relief in the war devastated countries of Europe is a meritorious one. Millions of the members of this race are starving and near death in Central Europe and Siberia. Their plight is tragic. Their only hope is the liberality of America. The Jews of this country have made valiant efforts to help them. But the needs of these unfortunate people are far greater than the ability of the Jews to meet them. Hence, the call has gone out to the whole country. The campaign has the endorsement of President Wilson and the governors of the states. A committee has been appointed for Wayne county and the work of collecting money for the

relief fund is under way. We hope the suffering

of these people will melt our hearts and induce us to support liberally the cause.

The son. however, had the sea In his veins, and even before he was allowed to enter the navy at 14 he had made numerous attempts to run away to his favorite element.

The daring Lord Cochrane was an admirable master; during two and a half years he showed his young midshipman some 60 engagements and bold enterprises of every sort. And the latter was an apt pupil whenever there was anything strenuous doing. Honorable mention came his way frequently; In 1818 he received the medal of the Humane Society for "at least a doren" gallant rescues; he invented a code of signals; he became a Fellow of the Royal Society.

been waged against the Jews m a number or European countries where law and order no longer prevail. Not only has their property been confiscated, but men, women and children have been driven into exile or ruthlessly and shamelessly abused and massacred. And the only reason for this visitation of cruelty has been the fact that these people were Jews. Five years of war inflicted the most intense suffering on the Jews. The massacres and persecutions that followed the upheavals in Russia and

Capital, on the other hand, is learning to appraise labor from the standpoint of an enlightened humanity and to make adjustments that will cure the evils against which the worker ha3 complained bitterly. Let both sides lose their distrust and approach the problem with mutually tolerant attitudes and a great stride toward its solution will have been made. This is where common sense will play an important role. Take the steel strike as an example. One of the complaints of the' workers is that they are forced to work seven days in the week, giving them no time for home life. The operators say that steel making is a continuous process and that they cannot close their mills on Sunday. They also assert that steps were under way to

arrange working hours so that shifts could have one day off in seven. Common sense would say that as soon as both sides see the justice in the contention of the other, an amicable adjustment can be reached. An analysis of almost every strike shows that it could have been prevented if both sides had been reasonable and willing to listen to common sense. Labor leaders, who once were wont to call a strike at the slightest provocation are beginning to see the folly of the practice, and capitalists who formerly refused to listen to the grievances of their men are beginning to change their attitude. The failure of both to use common sense is responsible for the interruption of production and the limited supply of commodities. The common sense of the American people will prevail. There is in this country a healthy optimism, founded on faith in our institutions,

eleven years of married lite, was born our hero Jack. For nurse to the baby the family doctor Introduced a strong healthy young woman. Mrs. Easy, catechising her, was horrified. "What not married! And you had a child!" "If you please, ma'am, It was such a little one!" The young woman joined tha Easy household, where she aided every other member there to spoil young Jack; and so we have at five years of age a complete specimen of the headstrong young male. To save him from utter ruin, the family doctor urged that he be sent to a school which he

reduced i coul(i highly recommend. The parents agreed, but with the proviso from Mr. I Easy that he must not be flogged.

The benevolent-looking master of this school was against flogging also. Caning, in his judgment, was more efficacious; so without troubling to tell Mr. Easy of it, he caned our hero

beautifully. Thus, when at fourteen Jack came home to live, all the bully was gone from him. In place thereof was a great dispositon to argue things, with natural equality and the rights of man as his favorite themes. Two disputatious people under one roof were tco many. Jack's father packed him off to sea in H. M. sloop Harpy, where he very soon learned that the natural equalities were not in high favor. If he was not towed ashore on a granting by a court-martial order for some of his socially anarchistic opinions when his ship arrived at Gibraltar, it was probably because the captain of H. M. S. Harpy was Indebted to Jack's father for the loan of 1,000 pounds. Jack's radical opinions did not lessen his naval zeal.

In the cargo of their prize the crew had found some casks of wine, to which they helped themselves, and, coming to a group of islands where

A fair proceeding all around, you see." The arrangement pleased Jack mightily. Mr. Biggs, after awhile, also agreed. "Shot for shot, I dare say it's all right," admitted Biggs. Nobody cared what Easthupp thought he was stood on his corner. The question came up as to who was to fire Et whom. "As sailors," explained Mr. Tallboys,, "you should of course Are with the Bun. That Is, Mr. Easy will fire at Mr. Biggs, who will fire at Mr. Easthupp, who will fire at Mr. Easy. -And now, if you please, take stations. Cock your locks! Take good aim! Fire! Stop your vents! Very well done." Where Easthupp'a bullet went nobody could say, probably Into the ground. Jack's passed through both of Mr. Biggs cheeks. "A pretty business!" sputtered Mr. Biggs. "How am I to pipe to dinner with my wind escaping through these holes In my cheeks." The boatswain's bullet had caught Mr. Easthupp in a tender rear spot, which caused that gentleman to roar so loudly that every one said he must be dead, or dying at least. Jack was scared, or pretended to be. He wrote a note to Captain Wilson, saying he feared h had killed Mr. Easthupp, and so he would stay ashore for a time to see what came of It. This happened in Malta. With Midshipman Gascoigne, his second, carrying a pair of duelling pistols, Jack sailed on a speronare with a crew of four men and a boy to Italy. During the night the crew, having Been too many of Jack's doublons, tried to kill the lads; but the lads killed them instead all but the boy who providentially fell overboard and was drowned.

A stoim overtook their little craft and threw her high up on the shore of Sicily. While looking about them they saw an elderly and a young lady beset by two robbers with long swerds. An old gentleman was lying unconscious

on the ground. Jack and Gascoigne drove off the villains. The old gentleman turned out to be a Don Ribiera de Silva, the lady to be Donna Clara his wife, and the brunette young beauty, Donna Agnes, their daughter. On a second look at Donna Agnes, Jack knew her for the young lady passenger of his prize ship. At the home of Don Ribiera, where the lads were later made welcome, he fell deeply in love with her. Easthupp did not die; and the boys returned to their ship, where their captain read them a ne lecture on dis

But when we think of how that same wonderful God, that the poet had in mind, gave utterance thru other inspired writers to tbots like these that a man was watched and lored by the same God that looked upon the sparrow, and that Solomon In all his glory was not arrayed as is the tiniest flower then we are able to understand that character and greatness of heart are things well worth winning.

Jack went home on leave, and there found his father working on a mechanical invention which was to rectify the mistakes of nature to preserve to the human special the finer organs and destroy the baser. While demonstrating this invention the poor man had his neck broken. A midshipman with 8,000 pounds a year was an anomaly in the service. Jack secured his discharge, the better to look after his estates. But as time went on he found himself thinking of Donna Agnes; so much so that one day he purchased a fast little armed trig, named her the Ribiera, procured letters of marque and sailed for Italy.

What Other Editors Say

STEEL WORKERS' SEVEN DAY WEEK From the Chicago News. STEEL making is largely a continuous process industry. That is to say, the mills are kept in operation in most instances twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week. That is necessary to the success of the industry. Out of It, however, has grown a situation ihat puts serious physical hardship on wage earners who sire bound to the wheel of the seven day work week. Where the continuous process prevails men too commonly work in twelve hour shifts on week days and Sundays. Aside from the fatigue thus resulting and their consequent lack of wholesome recreation, a condition that pioduces wearing, life shortening effects, a common complaint of the men is that they have little time to devote' to their families. They virtually have no leisure time. This situation is said to affect a large percentage of 1he men employed in the steel mills. Its ill results have been recognized by the managers of the steel Industry, leaders among whom long ago directed that the workers be given one day of rest in seven. Under the spur of war work, it is said, this provision was disregarded. It is, of course, conceded on all sides that workers should have one day of rest in seven. The long workday is another source of complaint by the Bteel workers. Three eight hour shifts, instead of two twelve hour shifts, have been established In some steel mills where the continuous process is employed, with effect- beneficial to the management as well as to the men. The question of work time " the steel mills is a question of human needs and therefore cannot be brushed aside. It may be assumed that the workers will obtain Justice in this as in other respects, now that the whole

PLAYING THE GAME Prom Forbes Magazine. Life itself is aptly likened to a game. To win, to earn and enjoy the fruits of victory, you must play fair. Wealth Is not the real prize of life, it is only a trophy, a symbol and may carry with it no satisfaction; indeed, it does not carry with it genuine, lasting satisfaction unless it has been won fairly, honestly, honorably. The ruleB for playing the game are extremely simple. Indeed, there is only one rule: Obey your conscience. Of late there has been a great deal of unfair playing. There have been wholesale efforts to reap more than Las been sown, to get more than has been earned, to tilt the scales unduly. It begins to look as If some of the profiteers will live to regret having broken the rules. Sooner or later the labor slackers will also get their just reward. ' In seeking to reach success there is only one worthwhile course to follow: Abide by the rules of the game. The worker who will cheat for his employer will also cheat his employer. Neither in business nor in life does cheating pay In the end. It's better to play the game and fail to shine than to break the rules and shine momentarily. The things that count are the things that last.

One day, after what Mr. Easthupp termed "hinvidious" remarks had been passed all around, Jack challenged Easthupp and Biggs to a duel, adding that he would get them both or none, and at the same time. The arrangements were entrusted to Mr. Tallbays the gunner, a man of most exact mind. "Both or none, and at the same time what did that mean exactly?" "Ah, of course! Three combatants, three positions." Mr. Tallboys got out his "Art of Gunnery," and drawing
