Reform in Foreign Service "The country -will be gratified to learn of the j indorsement by President Harding and Secretary Hughes of the Rogers house bill, providing for the reorganization and improvement of the foreign service," says the Indianapolis Star. "The measures would strengthen the American consular service by combining it with the diplomatic branch. It would increase salaries so as to avoid the necessity of selecting men with private incomes and also would provide for the retirement with' pay of those who have spent a specified time in the country's foreign department.

"The chief merit of the bill is will give a decided impetus to the macy as a career. This attitude ice has prevailed abroad for many

resulted in the undoubted superiority of the for

eign diplomatic corps as a unit, although individually, of course, foreign diplomats do not exceed our, own in natural ability. The needs of the foreign offices abroad are met more promptly because every member of the corps "from the most remote outpost up to the leading embassies

! Answers to Questions (Any reader can get the answer to any question by writing The Palladium '.Information Bureau, Frederick J. HaskI in. director, Washington, D. C. - This ofi f er applies strictly to information. The j bureau does not frfrve advice on legal, medical and financial matters. It does I not attempt to settle domestic troubles, 'nor to undertake exhaustive research on any subject. Write your question plainly and briefly. Give full name and address and enclose two cents in stamps for return poytacre. All replies are sent direct to the inquirer. Q. Will you please explain how the amateur golf championship tournament is conducted and how it differs from the open? D. C. A, In the amateur championship, in which only amateurs may play, all the contestants play an 18-hole elimination or qualification round at medal play. The 64 players making the lowest scores in this round are tben paired for match play which proceeds with the defeated players dropping out after each match until but two players are left for the final 36 holes. The winner of the finals is the champion and the man who played with him is the runnerup. If they are tied at the end of 36 holes they continue to play until one of them" wins a hole. In the open championship, in which both amateurs and professionals may contest, elimination or qualifying rounds are played to select a stipulated number of contestants usually 64 and ties for the last place who then play 72 holes at medal play The player who makes the lowest score for the 72 holes wins the, championship. In case of a tie fo'r the low score the players in the tie j , meet in a play-off at 36 holes. The j winner, if a professional, receives a : cash prize if .an a;mateur, he receives : a plate the value of the cash prize. ' The club to which the winner is attach- , ed or belongs also has the custody for one year of the cup which is emblematic of the championship. The essential difference between the amateur and the open is that the former Is contested at match and the latter at medal play. : , Q. How many passengers will an ' escalator carry in an hour? E. D. , A. The capacity of an escalator de- ' rends upon its speed and the width of its steps. There are no mechanical limitations to the rate of speed, but , engineers have found that a speed of about 100 feet per minute is most satisfactory. At this rate of driving 4,000 6teps per hour arrive at the landing, and an escalator five feet in width, each step of which would readily accommodate three people, would have a maximum capacity of 12,000. ' . Q. How long has Paris green been : used to kill potato bugs? I. L. O. , ' A. Paris green is said to have been ' first used to destroy the potato pest in 1S67 in Michigan. Musings For The E venins Mihiel Mordkin, or Mike as we call him who know him well, is ooming back to America to leap from crag to crag in the mountain goat skin. Mike used to be one of the Russian imperial court dancers and came over here with Pavlowa and danced all over our landscape for several seasons. He was the one who invented "The Dying Swar.," "The Perturbed Porcupine" and other classic dances, and was quite the rage for some time. Later he returned to Russia, and Is now ballet master in the Bclsheviki Opera House at Moscow, having ceased being an imperial court dancer about the time the imperial court was chased toward the " Crimea. Mike was never much afraid of the Eolsheviki. When he got to leaping good, the Bolshevik! could catch him, and so, being unable to arrest and deport him. they decided to let him run the opera house dances. We don't know just what Eolsheviki Ekids Mike is going to show us, but we hope ho won't omit that favorite Russian dance, the Leon Trotzky. ; In Russia Trotzky has revived the form of kissing hands. It is to be hoped this was p.receded by a revival of the form of uai I g soap. One ad says: "You can play for hours on a saxophone without becoming tired." But you can't do it for an hour without making everybody else tired. James M. Cox, former candidate for the presidency, says America must pull Europe out of the hole to save civilization. We thought Jim got all over that a couple of years ago.

TODAY'S TALK

By George Matthew Adam, Author

LOOK FAR! If you have no vision, you have nothing by which yon are able- to rise from the place where you are. In dreams do many people live and die, hut through dreams there are those who have reshaped the world. Look far! Beyond the things of trivial moment. The traveler sets out on his journey. He has a map by which he Is to be guided. If he gets off his track, he will consult his map again. But all the time he has within his mind a picture of the place to which he is going. He looks far. A man may carry a vision in his mind, but it must have its source of inspiration in his heart, else its materiality will soon or later crush out the thing for which he most strives and, his life will end in disappointment, no matter how much he is worth in money. The great Cecil Rhodes looked so far that he became known as "The Empire Builder." And it was because of the vision of James J. Hill that he also was known as an Empire Builder, Rhodes saw a vast territory united into one for the common good of all, in South Africa. Hill saw long lines of railroads reaching their arms into untrod lands, waiting for the immigrants. Your character becomes just about what you are dreaming, and planning that it shall become. And your success is going to be tempered by what you see each day as a possibility of the workings of your mind. Look far! Don't be afraid to look too far. It is much grander to aim too high . and never reach your goal than to aim low and reach it easily. Keep just ahead of where people expect to find you. See things completed. Then you will be able to go through all the hardships, the sufferings, th? disappointmpnts, ' the set-backs and not mind at all. Look far! '

Washington's Wise and Otherwise

Some Study Facts and Data Scientifically, Others Guess and Lose Money Heavily. 4

Br fredemck j. haskix WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. 8. American citizens who come to Washington in the government service, whether to elective offices, such as those of senator and representative in congress, or to appointive o'fices, learn a great deal about practical business methods and finance. The goverment is so closely allied with business that the servants of the government are thrown into close contact with the great business machine. These officials may be divided into two groups, differentiated by the things which they learn concerning national business affairs. One group is that which learns from the tipsters and lobbyists. This group's members may be sub-divided- into those who go home broke and those who go home rich, the former eadder but th wiser men, the latter often with occasional pricks from their consciences. The other general group i3 composed of those who apply themselves to a scieu tific study of the formation which functions legitimately bring before them. These usually stay out of busl ness entirely or go into it in a manner so cautious that they are successful In every group of men, whether they are ditch-diggers or statesmen,-there will be found some susceptible to the Wallingford call of get rick quick. The halls of congress and the ante-rooms of executive offices of the government will have just as many lobbyists and sure-thing men in them as feel they will find a welcome. The number of elective and appointive officials who do welcome such paiasites has been growing fewer and fewer every year, but there are some left. The lobbyist who seeks to curry fa vor with a member of either house or senate frequently will give him tips on the stock market. Not infrequently these statesmen act upon such inlormation. sometime the tips are gopd. More often they are not. But it is a part of human frailty that the gambling temperament never loses hope and so tips continue to be taken and acted upon. There have been net a few instances of country lawyers, doctors, store-keepers, or farmers who have come to Washington and been beguiled by the lobbyists and the smooth confidence men. Most of these go home like shorn lambs. What Wise Ones Can Do The other group is the careful and conservative one the scientific students of economic affairs.

Somebody Is Always Taking the Joy Out of Life

Uii i ft ttu t - I I JUST GOT TlMF I HAD BACK FROM HEY L. HEAR T THe Cake there is no place in the world where bo much information is available concerning the economic status not only of this nation but of the nations of all the world, as in Washington. This in formation is available to everyone, I but the men who come to Washington have it thrust under their very noses, while those absent must send for it. The wise ones at Washington study these data. They can obtain reports of utmost value from the department of commerce, the treasury department, federal reserve board, department of agriculture, interstate commission, federal trade commission and many other sources. This information is open to anyone. . A good case in point may be cited. A year ago reports received and made public by the department of agricul ture showed what the indications would be for crops of cotton, not only in this country but in the whole viorld, for the coming year. Reports of the census bureau showed the rate of American consumption and reports to the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce showed the of consumption in the textile mills of JBelgium, England, France, Germany, and the Orient, as weil as in all other countries. No single report would mean a great deal. But the man who took all these reports and studied them learned that it was as inevitable as the succession of night and day that the price of cotton would rise. Everyone knows that the price of cotton last fall a dirtcheap bargain has risen notably. The students among the Washington officials who were able to take advantage of this information bought cotton last year. They now have made substantial profits. The same is true of the stock market. The first group governed by the tipsters, but on margin because of some stray fragment of information passed along. A small fluctuation in prices, such as no man can forsea but such a small group in Wall Street can maniuplate, wipes out such speculators. The studious Washingtonlan right. Tlio momentary fluctuation buys stocks not on a margin but outcannot disturb him. His purshases are based on a knowledge of the supply and demand of various commodities in the country and what they are likely to be for a long time in advance. He cannot be fooled. He merely hangs on until the prices of his stock rises to a point where he believes the inevitable reactionwill set in then he sells and takes his profit. What a Big Market May Mean Recently there was a million share day on the New York stock exchange.

The performer thea asks five people each to take one match, and yet leave one on the plate. When all have given up attempting to solve the apparently impossible problem the performer demonstrates the trick. Four persons are allowed each to take e match. The performer announces that he will be the fifth person. When his turn comes he calmly picks up the plate, with the last match on it. Thus he has taken the fifth match, but there Is etill one on the plate. Copvriaht, 19tt, tu Publio L-tdoer Company This generally was heralded by brokers. as an indication of growing prosperity and they encouraged the public to buy the stocks which were being offered. Immediately afterwards a close student of national and international affairs made the following analysis. "If a million Ehares were traded in they had to come from somewhere. They were stocks which are held by the big investors, the men who make a close study of fundamental economic conditions. When big men dump their stocks on the market they surely cannot oe expecting permanent increases in prices. They must he expectng lower prices or they would hold on. With the country facing a winter of curtailed industrial output due to the strikes, the big men appear to think that these particular stocks are not going any higher; therefore they are unloading before the reaction sets in. The little trader sees a big day on the exchange, assumes that stocks are getting active because the list is due for a rise, and buys on margin Small, snap-judgment men are buving what big, nvestigating men are selling. Somebody is going to lose." The general feeling is that the fundamental conditions in the United States are getting better slowly but HEALTH THE SECRET OF ATTRACTION Women of today depend a good deal upon the modern modiste and a knowledge of the cosmetic are to make them attractive. Too often there exists beneath it all a suffering woman whose nervous laugh or forced smile covers a pang of agony caused by some feminine ill. To such a woman Lydia E.
