FRENCH MAKE GOOD START.

the only way to di-harr a debt Is to pay It.

The situation la especially noteworthy because it lnliles that Franc! Htlll retains the homely belief that the only effective way to fret hack to a olid foundation is to go to work to cam the money to pay obligations. They are Indulging In no high finance, but are proceeding on old-fashioned principles which they know to be pood becauso all their prosperity of the past was founded on them. They know that nation recovery Ii" In the individual efforts of the people. France exhibited 'the heroism of her people in war. Her determination to rentoro national sta.billty by gxdnp to work on the only safe plan proves that common sense Ideals still prevail with Frenchman. There may b as much heroism in tackling a hard job In peace as in rlffhtin In battle.

CAN'T STOP PRICE REDUCTIONS. It is not surprising that men in all lines of buslr.esT. from the production of raw materials to the ultimate sale of the finished product, should wish to nave themselves from the losses entailed in falling price, or that they should seek aid from tho government or any other source in the attempt. But as a matter of fact their effprts are in vain. The great financial organizations might be glad to help, but the matter is not in their hands. The present situation is the resultof economic processes that are irresistible. The binirte public I. tired of excessive prices and refuses to do any urchaning until prices come down. The attitude H universal, and Includes even foodstuff?". The people generally show great reluctance In buying ar.y commodity not offered at tomething nearly approaching pre-war prices. No priceraising propaganda will change their determination, nor change the economic situation on which it Is based. The retailers .ire thoroughly aware of the temper cf their customers. The basic agricultural Industrie find it hardest to realize, and are still clinging to the hope which most manufacturers and merchants abandoned some time ago, that something can be done to stop the movement. Dut nothing can. The only thing that any of them can do Id to adjust their operations in accordance with falling prices and trust that the lower standard may. pet in motion a steady stream of buying which will keep prices from falling to really ruinous extents. Total stagnation will result from any general attempt to keep prices above their logical level. o SEATTLE'S CROSSING LAW. The pedestrian has been hounded for Jay-walking until he lis beginning to understand thav the crosswalk is the proper point for crossing the streets, out how many communities concede him his right to protection when there? Seattle for a number of years has had ordinances which give the pedestrian the right of way at crossings, and forbid automobiles to travel over crosswalks at more than eight miles an hour in any case, or four mlleH if there aro person." thereon. Corners also must be rounded at not more than four miles an hour. These ruling may not be unique, but they ar notable becau.se they are enforced. Any driver who strikes" a pedestrian crossing the thoroughfare is considered the putlty iarty, while as a rule damages to a goodly mm are allowed Iho injured foot patcsenfrer. So rUridly Is the spirit of the law lnSlSiM lipon that the courts hold that the pedestrian, having Kianced both ways to insure he is safe in crossing, necti not be expected to look again while in transit. All machines must bo under tuch control as to make his safety a fact. There has been no lessening of these restrictions over a period of years, and crossing accidents are fev in Seattle. Such laws, properly administered, give protection where it Is needed. They offer a pleasing contrast to the doctrine that might makes riitht, which concede! the superior importance cf everything on wheels, forcing the foot pas?r.ger to run for his life nr.d ofttn to his death.

IIASCIIUKXER DAYS. The furnace is the modern way Of heating all our homes today. We feel the warmth, but seldom see The fire which blazes merrily; Uronze radiators I have found Are tilings we do not Hit around. And so 1 drop these words of praise Unto the stove of by-gone daye. It had its faults and drawbacks, too, Dut I recall it warmed 113 through; I realize the task was hard To lug the coal in from the yard, And trails of dust I left about Each time I carried the ash pan out Dut the room was cheered by the ruddy glow Of that old coal stove of the long ago. I like the easier ways today, Tho coal isn't stored so far away. And I needn't tug through drifts of snow Whenever the fire is getting low. But coming home 'on a winter's night I often long for that losil delight And the wondrous glow and the cheerful blaze That warmed the room in our coal stove days. (Copyright, 1920.)

More Truth Than Poetry By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

Tili: TRAGEDY. When Phyllis left this morning. To drive to town for tea. The radiance adorning Her face was fine to see. Her hat and costume, blending In sole harmonious tune.

Assured the maid of spending A perfect afternoon. Dut Phyllis, on returning Went straight up to her. room; Ilcr cheeks were hot and burning She radiated gloom. I served no whit to cheer her To praise her clothes and hat, In fact if we came near her She bristled, lbke a cat. For after what bcfel her This afternoon at ten. In vain it was to tell her That no one else could be So modish und so trim in Her autumn frock and für. She'd seen two other women Who had on hats like hers (Copyright. ECU.)
