. The recurrence of the anniversary of the
birthday of Washington today engaged the attention of patriotic citizens the country over.
His achievements as a statesman, as the founder
of our republic, as a man of superb character, possessed of the highest nobility and the staunchest integrity, were stressed everywhere.
- The republic has passed through many trying
periods and solved many perplexing problems,
including even the perpetuation of the Union
which he helped create, since Washington passed from the scene of activity. And in all of them,
American statesmen have found in the principles
of national conduct, enunciated by the father of
the republic, a sure guide and constant adviser,
With assured confidence in his judgment,
Washington, for instance, warned the republic
against entangling alliances with European na
tions and participation in wars whose purpose was the asrerandizement of territory. "I want
an American character," the wise president declared, "that the powers of Europe may be convinced we act for ourselves and not for others." He would avoid their disputes and he proposed "if they will harass one another, to avail ourselves of the neutral conduct we have adopted." From this precedent we wisely have not deviated and his policy has become so thoroughly assimilated by our people and been so deeply indoctrinated in our national life that we look with distrust upon every overture to the contrary and reject every offer. Today, as in the days of Washington, our strength lies in our determination to work out
our own destiny on our own continent, and in our decision to let European nations settle for
themselves their disputes and disagreements.
"Nothing but harmany, honesty, industry
and frugality are necessary to make us a great and happy people," he wrote to Lafayette when
he was elected first president of the United States. Nothing has transpired since to make necessary a change -in the fundamentals which Washington then enunciated as essentials for
our success.
The Resignation of Judge Landis
Every one regrets that Judge Landis has quit the federal bench to become arbiter of baseball.
It marks the passing of one of the picturesque characters of the bench, as well as of a judge who fearlessly did his duty, tempering justice
with mercy a3 occasion demanded it, and remain ing firm as adamantine in other instances.
. His resignation, as well as that of Will Hays,
shows how difficult it is for the government to
compete with private industries and enterprises
for the services of efficient men. The differ
ence in the salaries between federal judge and head of the baseball organization is so great that, irrespective of the warm attachment Judge Landis might have felt for his judicial post, he
could not have very well turned a deaf ear to the
overture.
The same condition prevails in other spheres in which private industry and the government
bid for services. The government, in a mis
taken sense of economy, pays small salaries for the highly important work which it expects its officials to perform. Consequently it is forced to obtain men of little training, who, after they have acauired experience and demonstrated
their worth, are quickly absorbed by the busi
ness world to fill executive posts or to give their knowledge to commercial enterprises. The result of this condition is to be measured in the increased cost of government. Inefficient men cannot give adequate service, consequently there is waste and mismanagement that consume thousands of dollars.

An illiterate justice of the peace used to consult what looked like a law hook, but was really a mail order catalogue. One day a negro was haled before the squire on a charge of drunkenness. The squire heard the evidence and then, after opening his book and glancing at it, fined the negro J4.49, to. be worked out on the roads at 25 cents per day. As the negro was being 4ed away he said to the marshal, 'l:slio' is a unlucky nigger!" "Un
lucky nothing." said; the marshal. ' lf the Squire had happened to open that book at. automobiles instead of pants you'd be working on the road the rest of your life." - . ; Every day or so we read of some
fellow who was a poor, half-starved ten-dollar-a-week man two years ago, who is now worth $8,973,627.85. Evldenlly plenty of money is being made in this county, but, as our friend the elevator man says, it is all being made by somebody you never heard of before. , When sizing up a dignified statesman, it is sometimes difficult to tell whether" he is Buffering Jrom hauteur or hot air. " We are glad to read a government report to the effect that resources are $305,000,000 higher than ever before at this time of year. But we wish to assure our readers there is nothing personal in this whatever.
TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It,"
Up"
GO AHEAD ANYWAY There are times that come to us all when we slow up our little trains and caravans these bodies and minds of ours and find that we are in a state of hesitation and doubt. Knowing just what to do having the ability to decide definitely and quickly is one of the master qualities ol the masterful man or woman. The only way to form this useful and necessary habit is to go ahead anyway, ofttimes. For there is nothing that shakes the foundation of character like not knowing what to do and not finding out quickly! It is- better to go ahead than to hesitate for you are sure to learn the right or wrong in your decisions, and will gradually become a quicker thinker with your judgment well rounded out by experience. So when you seem to be at sea, with no way of knowing the direction, go ahead anyway. Something is Bure to happen to lead you aright. Nature herself throws up danger signals and warnings. Every man is given guidance and attention, so that he may take the right road. But you cannot stand around and expect to get anywhere. Go ahead anyway. Your very mistakes will lead you. And your increased confidence in your ability to take trouble and disappointment, as well as success, will gradually make you a man of decision and action. Think then decide and go ahead anyway. Life is an educational process not an accumulation of years. Everything that you do must teach you something. You must keep storing up in your mind information that will be of use to you when the decision times come. By going ahead anyway you learnl And learning is growing.

The term has no recorded use in English before 1710, when it was used by Swift in The Tatler. Q. How many automobiles have the Continental motor? B. J. B. A. In the United States there are 26 makes of automobiles which have Continental motors. Q. What is a sesamum? L. E. F. A. Sesamum is a name given to a genus of about 12 species of Inidan or African herbs. The bland fixed oil obtained from them keeps well and is used -both as food and cosmetic. The oil cake, mixed with honey and preserved citron, is a popular delicacy in India. In 1921, the sesamum yield in India was 472,000 tons.

R.T. LINCOLN
Mr. Stephen. Leacock was in good form at the inauguration of the Canada Club. He had to face the problem of what exactly happens when one inaugurates a new club. He tackled it boldly. "I understand," he said, "that you're founding a new club, and you want the thing inaugurated. I wish you'd had a better inaugurator than I
am, but don't know where you'd get
one And now I've inaugurated you, see that you keep inaugurated!" It seems as good a way as any other.
ROBERT TODD LINCOLN Facts about Abraham Lincoln, brought prominently before the public again on the recent anniversary of his birth, included the interesting
one that ms eiaest son, Robert Todd Lincoln, is still alive, being one of
the two men sun alive who were with the Great Emancipator whea he died. . Robert is close to 80 now and according to a recent article i n Leslie's Weekly, by Aaron Hardy U 1 m. en
titled "Lincoln's Silent Son," is living in Washington
ton with his two daughters and three granddaughters, and while frequently seen driving through the parks or poring over old manuscripts and rare books in the library of congress, few residents of the national capital know him by sight. His reticence has been attributed to a modesty of" attitude toward his father's fame. It 13 said that he has been showered with opportunities for capitalizing his name, but spurned all of them. He graduated from Harvard in 1864 and during the last year of the Civil war served on Grant's staff with the rank of captain. He accompanied Grant to Washington when his father was shot, and was present when he died said to be one of two persons now living who witnessed that sad event. He settled in Chicago, studied law and- began practice. He had a natural
attraction to politics and when Gar

made secretary of war, and was the only one of Garfield's cabinet mem
bers who was retained by President Arthur. Later he was appointed minister to Great Britain by President
Harrison.
