SELLING THE SCHOOLS. fjov. Cool;.e of Mü.sachu.--?tt3. in an address tw thfi Teachers' ahSoci?tion of th-Tt state, .aid: 'I have always striven to stimulate interrat in education y.y Kk-Mini; the public to make a richfr investmmt in It If you want an lntort?t In any project, 'ft fomc o.Tf to make an investment in it, and then their interest always follows." While Gov. Cooli.Ige nn.loubto.lly had in-re than a financial investment in mind, nevertheless it ir.(r than likely that mot of the financial ditlirulties in the rhool today arc duo to the fact that the schoois have not been "sold" to the public t notigh as a vital and successful uridertakin'. T?Vy have been regarded too long both within and without th school house walls aa a, thing apart from the business life of the nation, instead of what they really are by far the greatest 'ind hvslpayinp buslnr?. institution in the country. Tn remedy this lack, publicity is necessary; th -aim sort of publicity as would bo riven the aims dm! returns of any great undertaking requiring larfc-e capital; publicity, too. .1 to the amounts already invested, bo that citizens may understand how frre.Uly It Is to their advantage that theso moneys be disbursed wisely and honestly and in the internst of the greatest educational vfHciency. Also it tiould b made plain that the returns upon the investment In education, in citizenship and ramtnc power r.f the educated, are- a definite financial return, not a fanciful or sentimental thing, and that they will be high or low exactly ax the. machine is eflicifnt. When the?o matters are better understood, increased investment in ducation will be easier to secure and, a the governor rredicU-', increased interest will follow.

A HOMELESS HOME RULE BILL. What will become of the new Irish home rule bill ia an interesting .subject for npeoulation. The Irish are more than ever determined to have none f it. North and south Ireland are united on this matter the only thing: they have been able to .igr.e on for .ome year. In spite of their unanim-t-tn rrotesls. the Uoyd George government went ahe.ni and put the mrajurc through. It was given us I'nal xtVAipe in the house of commons by a big majority, though without enthusiasm, and in tho deliberate absence of the parties chiefly concerned. The houso of lords will doubtless take the s-ame ac'.ion. Then what? t'lster and Dublin are not going to change oveinight. reconcile their differences and accept this oual pystem of dominion self-government. Sinr. Kein wams complete reparation, and Ulster wants no separHtion at all. The deadlock will continue. Hut the home rule bll! i? not merely an offer for Ireland to accept or reject. It is a law of the realm. The British Imperial parliament has legislated a certain form of government for a pirt of the empire, unconditionally. Technically it should be enforced like any other parliamentary act. Will Ortat Britain, then, proceed to set up the new purliajnentary government in Dublin und Uel:st b force of arms? It would be no u' trying. That 1 se!f-Aident. Ireland can be id to the limitt d-home-rule trough, but it cannot be forced t tirink. Tht aci U manlfrt!y destincil to become a lead letter, .ni! would have hecn a similar plan if England had proposed it to the American colonies ubout the year 177a. South Ireland has made her declaration of independence, and apparently means to stand by it.

GERMANY'S EXCUSABLE ATTEMPT TO RECLAIM HER LOST COLONIES. Hertnany'-H notlfic itlon of the League of Nations that !!ie does not consider herself bound by the term of the Yersinien treaty under which she sur-rendort-d lur colonies, is more than, significant. It :s threat nir c It is the first distinct echo of tho American ection from across the sea.- Herlin throuph h r amb Widers here. JIt-.r. Vierick, Ixdge, K:io, Watson, etc., has succeeded in driving that wedge in l.e.wen her allies, at which she hammered so hard during the war; succeeded by laying down her arms and resorting to the propi-gj.nd-1 of p. i., e. NokV she considers herself entrenched behind an Arurican replica of Messrs. Inine and Trttsky through the election of Messrs. Harding ami -Toc'.idge aivj tn, popular indorsement of thir separate jetee program. Had Gerrr.ar.y applied to the Ieasue for a revision of thi.se clauses cf the Versailles' treaty, depriving hr of lur colonies that would be or." thuifc,'. but to renounce tlie treaty, and declare h r--'.f not bound 'hesv iLi'.ms, is uit- aitotlu r thing. It mich; t" .iii.'v.n, ro t a pro-;,-rman, Ifir tail the t arm. irks of her oid audacity and domineering v .. s. It 1' virtually a i fi thrown in the txc cf the wori i with the exception cf Uu-ia.

the United States. Mexico. Turkey, Austria, and other non-League members, upon whom evidently, she counts for support. Germany's defiance, from the way she expresses it. is quite tantamount to a threat of war. Doubtful, very doubtful, if Germany would ha pursued this course but for assurance from tht country, confirmed oy the elections, that as a people we are more proGerman and anti-Dritlsh. than we are for world peace. It ii well known that up to the very' signing of the treaty in Paris, the Germans did not regard themselves vanquished. They had merely "laid down th.ir arms in the cause of peace," they said, and it seemed to require what Ken. Knor termed the "hard and cruel" terma of the treaty, to bring them to their senses. Following that treaty nigrflng- ceremony, Germany did for a Heason, seem to consider herself flogged, and thn came the debates In the United States senate, and th apparent reaction of the American people, inspired from the senate floor and Vierick's WeekTy (formerly the Katherland), culminating in the recent election reviving the hopv in German hearts, it would seem, almost into consonance with their ambitions of 1914. And not only the elections here in the United State, but the elections in Greece. Krom Athens came the new of the overthrow of the Venizeloi ministry and a vote, to all intents and purposes, inviting the return of King Constantine and his Hohenzollern wife to the Greek throne. It is onlynatural that Berlin rejoiced and felt the need of vithr. aiding her de lance no longer. From every surface indication, the peopleH who have spoken recently, have repudiated quite unanimously their wartime deals, and shifted quite to the pro-German extreme. Llcyd George alcne has been able to hold himself in position. France ha retired Clemenceau, Italy has retired Orlando, Japan has a new premie.-, Vcnizclos has beon Junked, and Wilson maligned to the end of accomplishing the repudiation of every ideal for whicn he strove, and which the nation once Feemed to approve. Natural enough for an egotistical people like the Germans to see . this the rising of the German star againl They feel that they can talk back once more and anticipate favorable consideration from their auditors. About the next thing you know, the kaiser will be returning to his throne) and Germany will expect the world to applaud his return. And neither in Germany without excuse in these rudaciouw anticipations. She merely doesn't understand that the surface indications' are only the reactions of an hysteria. People "who cannot think; who merely follow a leader; who have no moral purpose in the world, rave temporary self-gratification; who are never actuated to anything save through fear, or through hofe cf tome personal rewYtrd; who have to be thrown upon the crest of a .wave of enthusiasm. In order to get them to budge; such are the people who have spoken, and whose voice Germany has heard giving her a false cue. Germany is banking on tho world's instability. We anticipate, however, that the League of N"a-V tions will jolt her back to her senses, and perhaps without much ceremony, the apparent pro-Germanism of the United States and Greece notwithstanding. It will be interesting to seo how far her defi will get. lt us hope that it will not become too interesting. o

PATRONIZE AMERICAN SHIPS. That business competition may be sharp and even ruthless between nations otherwise friendly is indicated by the statement of the chairman of the United States shipping board advising American exporters to patronize American ship.. He intimates that foreign shipping interests, jealous of the business goinj to veHsels Hying the Stars and Stripes would like to drive our Flag off the Feu, and to that end may reduce their freight rates so greatly below those charged by the American merchant marine that the latter will be forced out of business, whereupon the foreigners, left without competition, will raise their rates to the highest point that the traffic will bear. Developments in maritime commerce have not taken just the turn that our European competitdr anticipated and desired. Germany, it Is true, has been eliminated from the ocean trade; but tho United States, an almost negligible rival in this field of trade before the war, gives promise of being as formidable a contender as Germany was. The chairman of the shipping board gives out figures to show that the majority of Import now coming to the United State arrive In American bottoms. F01 example, during the week ended Oct. 30. the ast for which statistics are available, th board's records show 15S American ships arrive 1 with 171,8 14 tons, compared with 100 foreign hip? with 3,90S tons, while 131 foreign vessels arrived in ballast as ag-iir.yt only 73 American ship. Naturally such a situation as this ist making the foreign shipping interests, which used to enjoy so much larger a proportion of our trade, uneasy. Patriotic considerations would seem to dictate that, so far as is possible. Americans give their ocean business to American ship?. o The League of Nations assembly meeting .Härtel with the prayers of all the churches of Geneva for its success. Some of its enemies, however, probably are hoping that it may break up in a riot. It is a nice Christian world in which the average peace project finds itself. o There is no rancor in our hearts against the successful candidates of the election. When we look upon the unplowed fields that lie before them, the thought is irrepresible that if they deserve the worst th(y will prDLiably get it.

I'.ehind Mr. Ihyan's naive suKgcsiion that Mr. Harding should be called to the chair at once is probably the subtlo thought that the chair may oe cushioned with tacks. o Tht parents who name the baby for the presi-dent-eleft destrve a medal if they include his midttle name. o France tin. a:en-j to bolt th L .mue if Germany is admitted, thun inducting that the league takn rather seriously, after all.

More Truth Than Poetry

By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

A TALI WITH A MORAL Where trammer eternally smiles And azure is always the sky O'er the green little, clean little isles That lie to the south of Hawaii, A bachelor never would bother to woo A dark Polynesian daughter Rut put in his pocket a clam-shell or two, , And went to the market and bought 'er. Rut the law of supply and demand Throughout Polynesia is found. And sometimes the maidens on hand Were not half enough to go round; So before very long there began to appear, On these Islands that dot the Pacific. The methods employed by the bold profiteer And the price for a wife was terrific. Conditions soon got pretty bad And people grew hopeless-, becauso The rate-raising wife vendors had Quite all of the wealth that th. re was. Most all the young warriors who dwelt in the place And had but few clam shells to Jingle, Were shortly bowed down by the horrid disgrace That falls on a man who is single. Till, in fury they sharpened their spears And after a bear of a fight, They roasted the wife-profiteer And had' 'em for dinner one night. And now, in that beautiful sector of earth Where the climate's a rare, but a hot one. A wife doesn't ever cost more than she's worth. And every young warrior has got one. (Copyright. 1920.)

JUST FOLKS By EDGAR A. GUEST

THANKSGIVING. Thanksgiving 4s the time when we Give prayers of thanks for all we see, For all the joy that's conies our way With every week an' every day; An' just to show our gratitude We load the table down with food An go to work to cat our fill Till mother says we'll all be ill. I've stuffed myself a dozen ways Through forty-two Thanksglvin' days; I guess I've eaten cranb'ry sauce Enough to kill a ploughman's horse. If turkey hurts a man. I vow I wonder how I've lived till now! Of helpings I've had three or four. An' longed to pass my plate for more. Twould make a stack full six ftet high To measure all the pumpkin- pie I've risked my life to put away In real observance of the day: If good things which the Lord provides, And fixed up by a cook besides. an deal a man a fatal blow. I should have died long years ago. I'e et preserves an candied yams An' Hubbard squash an' sugarei hams Enough to feed a regiment; I've et unto my heart's content. An spite of all the doctors say. I never suffered much that wa . So I Just let 'em cat their fill Though mother says thev'li all be 111.
