IS THE AIR FREE? Wvi.o anything r. ceded to remind the thinking ih at thi. ia a changing world, the fact that the Arr :.:r;an Bar association, representing the lawyers of the nation, dLscuvtd for two daa the question of control of air Ly law, may be useful. (jho e cation of the lawyers were of the opinion that the federal government fihould enact UW3 at once to control aviators. At on co tho objection waj raised that the air, l y :. theory, has no ownership, or If owned at all. L tho property of tho landowners. I. ss the tltlt to a house and lot carry with it th- rights to all the nlr above that lot? Does hla owr.fr.h!p extend to the tar and beyond? Or has ho only the right to what air he hreathej, th" right of use? if ho does not. ought th control to be In th hands of cities, a municipal control that Includes power to prevent contamination by nauseous cr poI.jo r.ous gar-es? if not the city, what rights have the etateJ ctr th air? T-.vcr.ty years ago a group of lawyers seriously (Matins such quof ior.s would have been classed v. it h those ancient philosophers who very eorloualy anil lengthily debated tho question of how many an- 1.' could stand ujon the point of a needle. Tho' attorneys might have been gently taken l y th arm and led to the nearest apylum. Th. y are not considered Insane now. The question U a vital one. They want laws by which they can adjust, tho right of tho?e whose cows may be ?omd by the paling planes that they see in the roar future, whoee crops may be ruined by dropping rachines. Moro important, they want to know what interx.ational rights may bo exacted and expected. II. ich aco has Its now problems. Stealing news Ly capturing wireless flashes 13 one of the nev crimes. Try to imagine what tho next may be.

THE RESTLESS SEX. Out of the news of a day, make a note of tht facts: r.uiarian women are taxed 500. levaa for wearing nilk stockings. Mr.. J. B. Newman of Washington, drafted the new banking laws for the republic of Cuba. In New York city 10,000 women employed at rnihbir.S OiTice buildings have formed a union. The census bureau announces that 251. 553 WO r:v n operate farirn in tho United States. Qurcn Elizabeth of Belgium takes up- the study of medicine and Cuba limits employment of women in stores to those dealing In women's clothes. Mrs. Catherine .e!.on, widow, earns $30 a day as a welder on structural iron, working several hundred feet In the air. Connecticut makes women who bob hair for others pay a $3 barber's llcenso and hair importation of human hair from China drops from 222. COD to 7.000 pounds a month. Croup these, tog?her in your mind and then flo not overlook tho big fact that 30,000,000 women, today, yesterday and tomorrow, are engaged in keeping American home up to the highest standard of lif? yt reached by any civilization and that they can be depended upon to keep on In that tremendous accomplishment.

IIIS PU Kl SI MEIST HERE. Tlvvt who may deplore the fact that tho former kai-Hr. indicator of a million heart breaks, has n't en brought t trial for his crimes against nuir.anlty. may find seme satisfaction in his present con dition. I!- is almost alone, now. In his exile in Holland, V.hCTC lit- fled In terror. There are few visits from hi. relatives. Those who once trembled in his presence, th.-o who fawned upon his favor, have forgotten him. I b- tries to gain relief by reading but he cannot find interest In printed words. H walks to escape from himself and he soon iirt s. l!r attempts gardening and sawing wood and no vhjv: il f.,t;.4i:e can rtop tho brain from bringing foth Its picture; cf his former splendor. Tho greatest of eoti.t?. he has no one on whom he can pour forth hi? e pot ism. Th- greatest of tyrants, there is no one to be browbeaten or to fiwn upon hU word. Lustful for power, no one bends to his will. He hi? become h's own jailor, hL own executu ivr. IK' suffers what to him Is perhaps the greaf- .. of pen!titi f orgetf ulnt?s. oblivicn, abandcur.t.

LOTTIE. THE INVALID. Tl'.t r" is grief along the Illinois Central line rn the co division, real grief in the hearts of i very trainman. A f'.rl that none of them knew personally and all of them loved, 1 dead. P.hi-:i at tho town of Ia Clede lived Lottie F;rou.e. She wn hurt four years ago and was ' irri- l to her homo, nvcr to walk again. Sh. knew that shc was doomed to live the rest t f In r yenrc. a prisoner to her own cot. Th little home was near the tracks. Her bed, a i '.ace pain, wa. placed near tlie window and waved, at first Mmluly. and then gladly to the trains as they ru.shed by. At f:.-st the conductors and engineers and firemen t k. .! aVout the girl that waved and then they grew t xw-ct h r tu.luto. Their tri; -s were Plways a little pleasant er. For there was a greneroas tmlle with each waving of tho rtand- Not & train, day cr night, for three lor. years faHd to e anl return her challenge to te friendly. The nylneers always answered with a trhistlo. Th conductors waved their hands or interns. Just he Terns Christmas they discovered, thco trainmen, the ldetrtrty cf the firlrl and the fact that nhe would r.ere?r rWe trpon a train, never wa'.R trpon tho groi rA. perver leat the llttlo room afid yet mil"3.

helped them all. Thi y hid felt more friendly toward triemlvcs. They tried to help her. Committees tent wheeled chairs, blankets, cojmforta. They hired a epeciahat to fee if medical science could bring her back to health. Only one or two cf the membcre of the committee ever poke to her. Hut all the men who travel that lino wore black btnda on their arma on the day that ahe was carried from her window to the hillside. Lottie, invalid, had conquered by a smile and found a way to eerve.

FIPiD YOUR OWN ANSWER. On Sunday night approximately C00 mcr. and women gathered in church for a Lahor day service. Twelve hours later 3,000 men and women gathered In a park to watch two men, stripped to the skin, try to knock each other Into Insensibility. The ono service, called for a discussion to raise tandarda of life. wa free. The other, highly successful because it ended in Interference by tho police, called for the price if a pair of hoes aj admission. Those whew mlndj take enap Judgment might conclude that labor has lost intere-fn in its own welfare and that the world Is strongly atavistic in its trend toward cavedays. They will be wrong, jf cmrse. Interest in pugilism satisfies primitlvo emotlonJ Commercialism aids to make it popular. Labor, on the other hand, may have learned trial every problem must be solved a3 It arises and have lost confidence in any general panaceas. Perhaps you can find a better explanation. At any rate, a trial will help the Imaginative faculty. 0 Ono who butta in Is usually tho eoat.

WHEN MEN SUFFERED. Mo6t iatcreing Jn showing the advance in reducing physical suffering is a recent translation of tho life of Ambrolse Tare. For 40- yeara he ecrved as eurgeon, friend and counselor of the kings of France. He followed Ida masters Into battl?, lived with them in palaces, laughed with them in their momenta of revelry and watched them die in agony. Fare died in 16D0 and left behind him a written record of the customs of hi day. "When armies went into battle there was no camp trains of food, no sanitary order or equipment, no hospitals and no drugs. Wounded men bdund up their wounds and either lived or died as their vitality and forces of resistance determined. Beyond crude operations for broken legs, surgery was moro of a nam-; than a profession. Civilization is almost new. Each year brings soms new triumph. From the utter neglect of the day.? of Fare to the modern eurgery is the progress of the brief space of three centuries. Compared with all the years that had g-one before, the period i3 almost insignificant.

musclh shoals mis. (Philadelphia Ilulletln.) GIfford Ptnchot'3 objections to Henry Ford's bid for the Muscle Jshoals enterprise are pertinent for consideration. But, like other le?s open opposition to the acceptance of that offer, they mu?t -be viewed In the light of the fact that Mr. Ford's is the only bid which has been made for the plant. If anybody will bid more, they are entftled to consideration, and if Mr. Ford will raise his bid on competition, he ought to have a chance. There are various economic interests to be perved by the development of this plant; the United States haa invested millions of dollars, from which it dosires whatever salvage it can get; Congress has wiped its hands of the matter as a Federal project. The government has to deal not with an entirely now water policy proposition, but with a war legacy to be liquidated on as favorable terms as possible, and apparently the chief puhlic interest now is that the government of course, within the limits of existing legal restriction.5 shall make tho best bargain it can, whether with Henry Ford or another, to give the treasury a maximum return for the money already epent on the enterprise.

SITOTITLTUS VOJl MILK. (Ottawa Journal.) Nearly 9 0.000,000 pounds of milk substitutes were sold in the United States last year, and the dairy Interests are appealing to Congress for legislation which will restrict the new trade. The imitation product is made by first extracting the- butter fat from ordinary milk and making up tho loss with cocoanut. peanut or cottonseed oil. It is sold almost Wholly In the form of milk powder or condensed milk, and makers of tho genuine article say they aro unalde to compete. It Is not contended that there is anything deleterious in those substitutes, but that they lack the food value of real milk, and to that extent are a menace to public health. They are to condensed dairy milk what oleomargarine is to butter, and public concern in the matter will probably begin and end with a demand for proper and truthful identification marks on every package. It is not likely that the legitimate dairy industry will suffer seriously from this form of competition, and in its defense the point Is urged that the manufacture of the substitute article opens a way for the use of a largo volume of .kimmed milk which would otherwise be fed to hog o WORSHIP. (Chicago Tribune.) Theodore Roosevelt's church creed was contained in nine pungent paragraphs. We quote as follows: "Yes. I know all the escues. I know that one can worship the Creator in a grove of trees or by a running brook, or in a man's own house. Just as well as in a church. But I also know as a matter of cold fact, the averago man does not thus worship. "He may not hear a pood sermon at the church. He will hear a wrmon by a g-ood man. who, with hk wife, is engaged all week In making livee a little easier. "He will listen to and take part in reading some beautiful passages from the Bible. And if ho is not familiar with the Bible he has suffered a loss. "Ho will take part in singing some good hymns. "He will meet and nod or speak to good quiet neighbor. He will come away feeling a little more charitable toward all the world, even toward thoj excessively foolish young men who regard church goings as a soft performance." o Tin; sexsiuli: si:. (London Daily Stall.) The whole weight of a typical woman's dress was found to be only Di ounces, without shoes. The mere man was encumbered with g-arments weighing nearly five pounds. Observation shown that women have introduced the dress conditions of the Directolre, when they had uncommonly little on, and that they always look cool. There Is no reason Why men should not follow their example and for tropical heat adopt tropical clothing. o IlAn.RO APS. (Oklahoma News.) A plan for consolidating the railroads Into 20 big systems has teen worked cut by the interstate commerce commission. That would cut out a lot of foolish competition. It doefnt matter how big a railroad combination is, as long as the people control it through their government. And government regulation cf the railroads 4a here to stay..

THOUGHTS OF A BKTUIiNING SCHOOL BOY. I used to thlhk my Pa was wrong When he would iy, tho years fly by; I thougtit the weeks an' months were long An when I wait for Christmas, I Am euro tho days will never go. An weeks seem. Just liko years right then, But now time does g-o fast I know. I've got to go to s-chocl again. It seems a dreadful time between My birthdays, but my Pa says: "wait. When several more of them you've seen They'll come around at rapid rate." I don't believe that can bo w. And yet I've got a new suit on And back to chool I've got to go. Vacation time ha3 been an' pone.

I used fo count the weeks, and say That there were 10 of them that I Could spend all by myself in play And now the lact of th era's gone by. It doesn't eeem 10 weeks ago. Since school let out. they've gone so fast But Pa Just grins and says: "Oho, You've learned that tlrno does fly, at last." Ten weeks to Christmas! that seems long. Ten weeks to school days an the fall An teachers an the study gomj! That isn't any time at all. Tho fun you want seems far away, The fun ycu've got goes wliizzin' by, An my vacation's done today, I'll bet the school days, though won't fly. (Copyright, 1921)

(live 3UHIon Unemployed. U. S. CHovcriimont Report.) Our land is bursting with wealth untold, Yet want and hunger beside us lurk. For while we measure our gain and gold, Five million tollers are out of work. Here In a country that's "free" and "great" The ancient menace again we greet. For all of our infinite estate Trio bread line forma in tho dusty street. 1 Despite the wisdom of age on age, The gathered learning, tho hoarded lore,

The man who toils for his daily wage Starves again as ho starved of yore; This is a fact that we cannot shirk, This is a problem for us to meet. Five million toilers aro out of work. The bread line forms in the dusty street. Shall we go on In the old, blind way, The .brutal method of thoughtless greed? Or shall we strive for a better day, When men take thought of their neighbor's need? It little serves us our wealth to vaunt When hunger threatens our fellow men Here once more is the specter, Want, The bread line waits In the street again! (Copyright, 191.)

If when the farmer could not thrive Unites you helped him with the til ace, And always were on hand to drive. When he had errands in the village. You'd kicked at working after dark. And made it plain how much you panted To go to slumber with the :ark. Your plea, perhaps . would have been granted. But In these day cf motor cars, Which night and day rush helterskelter. You ought to thank your lucky stars That you have either food or t heiter. Do any thing the bn? may ask. Work any hours he will W you.
