An Exception Once in a while in an age of profiteering and easy money, an outstanding exception is found. A Massachusetts shoe manufacturer, testifying before the house war investigating committee, said his company had received less than 2. per cent profit on contracts, agregating $23,000,000. He further declared that his company had saved the government $4,071,000 through lower bids for leather and textile supplies.. If the investigation which the house com-

Today'sTalk By George Matthew Adam THE TRUTH When we speak of the truth. it ounds quite abstract Indeed. But as ft matter of fact, it is quite plain and concrete. I like to think of the truth as the "You Are" In a person. For when It Isn't there, you donft know where to find the man or woman. Truth Is the basic virtue of character. It is the corner stone of one's pursuit in life. Truth is like unto a rare colored diamond or opal it shows", best in various lights. That is to say, the more you put to the test one who is truthful and who has truth within him, the finer is it reflected as big and prominent in the make-up of his character. That which makes all human nature beautiful and superlative is the truth inside the workings of its heart! When you are truthful and know the truth, you t-tand apart. You are a one-person with ability and courage. Tn the Bible is a saying that if you. know the truth, it will make you free. As a matter of fact, the only free people are those who are able to Fee the truth -in everything, and then, in understanding, to go ahad and apply its suggestions to every simple and great action of everyday thinking and working. j Be truthful, open of heart, broad of j mind, gpnerous in action and you will never be in doubt as to what the i truth is.

This nobby confection was named in honor of Lord Derby of England, who "was a strongminded man and didn't care what people thought about his clothing. It is n strangp fact that some of these ironlids are worn to this day, so strong a hold evon the v.-eirdest habits take upon men. Aftor two years the derby hat victims arc abandoned as incurable.

mittee intends to make of his company's books shows that he told the whole truth, assuredly he deserves the congressional medal. He would be the first big contractor, it would seem, who had not gouged the public for all it could stand.

The exposures of shameless overcharges and of colossal irregularities in the construction of

cantonments and the production oi war munitions make this incident stand out in bold relief. His company evidently had not forgotten that as Americans they were all interested in winning the war, and that economy in production of war supplies was as much of a patriotic duty as was the carrying of a gun. If hundreds of profiteers who took advantage of the government's position had been actuated by a little of the patriotism that moved the boys who did the fighting, millions of dollars worth of Liberty bonds would not have been floated, and the tax rates would have been lower. The department of justice is still gathering evidence in an effort to discover if the laws were violated by contractors and agents. The American people want a painstaking investigation of the cost of the war.

Dinner Stories A hair-dresser in a city establishment got quite a shock when a man. obviously up from the country, planted himself down in a vacant chair and asked to have his hair cut. Never in his life had the barber seen such an extraordinary' crop of, hair. It stuck up in wild, unkept tufts, of different lengths, and looked more like a badly-treated brush than anything else. "H'm!" said the man with the scissors. "Who cut your hair last?' "Oh, my wife did!" answered the customer, with a shamefaced expression. "What did she do it with?" snorted the -barber disdainfully. "A knife end fork?" He was dining alone and had much time to puzzle over an unusual phenomenon he had noted. "Why is it, Sam," he said, addressing the waiter, "that poor men usually give larger tips than rich men?" "Well, suh," rejoined the woollyheaded knight of the napkins meditatively, "looks to me like de po'man don't want nobody to find out he's po' an' de rich man don't want nobody to Fnd out he's rich." "Did you get in on that proposition?" asked the promoter. "Sure! They let me in on the ground floor." "They did?" "Yes, and then the bottom fell out." I Memories of Old Days I In This Paper Ten Years I Ago Today v The Wayne county Woman's Christian Temperance Union in its closing session at the South Eighth Street Friends church expressed disapproval of the immoral conditions of the city, and deplored the laxity of the local police force in allowing "street walkers" to flood the main street at ni;rht. A great boom for house building was being experienced, and a contractor estimated that over $200,000 worth of plumbing and electric wiring was being put into the new houses. It was expected that the new hose house being erected on West Fifth and Lincoln street would be finished by June 1. News of Railroad and Industrial Workers An estimated $2,;"00 damages was sustained by the Pennsylvania railroad Friday, when a frieght car on a rapidly moving freight, train, No. 476, was derailed east of Seven Mile.

During the early period of tho conflict Government agents established the fact that he was holding communication with German agents, such as Bolo Pasha, later executed for his spying. Caillaux was still such a dominating figure in the nation's politics, however, that the men in power feared to make public their findings and take action against the ex-premier until Clemenceau had again been made premier and had his forces well in hand. On Jan. 14. 191S. Clemenceau had Caillaux arrested. He was placed on trial before the senate sitting as a high court on Feb. 17 this year.

At a Democratic banquet in Wash-1 ingion in isau, f resiaeni jacsson rose and proposed this toast: "Our Federal Union; it must be preserved."

Two years afterward, a convention in South Carolina solemnly adopted an ordinance nullifying the tariff act

ior iuai Biie ana iorDiaaing wuain. the boundaries of the state the collection of customs duties under it. While recommending to congress a modification of .the offending tariff. Jackson appealed to the patriotism of the South Carolinans in a proclamation, which set all the North and much of the South ringing with cheers; ordered Gen. Scott to the scene of threatened trouble; reinforced the forts of the disaffected etate; dispatched a naval fleet to Charleston harbor and only waited for the first overt act of revolt to give him warrant for arresting Calhoun and the other leaders. But the nullifies nullified their nullification, leaving the resolute and patriotic president riding a high tide of popular favor. To show "the Yankees that a Democrat does not have horns." as he said. Jackson made a New England tour. And to the disgust of John Qulncy Adams, Harvard conferred the degree of doctor of laws upon "a barbarian who could not write a sentence of grammar and hardly could spell his own name." Another incident of the administration was amusingly characteristic. France had failed for years to pay the French spoliation claims, and King Louis Philippe kindly hinted that an earnest passage on the subject in the president's annual message might stir the chamber of deputies to make the necessary 'appropriation. The president took the hint, but some of his advisers feared that the threatenine words he proposed to insert were too earnest for Parisian ears. "I know them French." he replied, and he in sisted that a real dose of Jacksonian earnestness was just what they needed. The French properly were indignant; they recalled their minister from Washington, gave our minister his passports and demanded "satisfactory' explanations." Jackson would make none, and in the end. this pioneer of shirt-sleeves diplomacy collected the bill without retracting or apologizing. Jackson's pre-eminent service to the country was rendered In his battle with nullification. "The tariff was only the pretext," he said, "disunion and a Southern Confederacy the real object. The next pretext will be the negro." Thanks to him, that irrepressible conflict had been postponed 25 years, until a great West should grow up and join hands with the East in saving the Union.
