THE PROBLEM OE LEISURE. Wh.it do you do In your ppare time? Do you know how to enjoy yourself? Are you poor company for -your-clf? Have yo-j found a way In which to Improve the hours when you fire free from work? If you h.iv found the correct answer to Idl hoirrs, twins the word "idle" to dewribo that time left after you have completed the work which brings a living to you and yours, you may count yourflf amorj l).f few of earth's fortunate. A maker of automobiles at Flint, studying thf trend cf Industry, has Issued a warning that "In a town dominated by automatized machinery the educational problem Is to train youth to right use of leisure." He has discovered no new problem In his observation that the lncreasr-d u.e of machinery for production will .tonic day bfln the world to tho point whore fornfthintr cor.widerably le3 than an elffht hour day will sufllco for prcKluctlon up to the limits of possible consumption. Old Aristotle:, tho philosopher of ancient Greece, hod it figured out the y.im way pome thousands ot years ago. He wrote when most of tho r.opul.itlon were flavrp. Ignorant, illiterate and with no chance for Miene, and yet he believed that one of the uecrets of living v;.it the proper u.oe of leisure hours. Tho auto maker who has been led to his conclusions through watching the effect of machinery upon hours of labor comes no nearer to giving: a solution than did Aristotle whose leisure das depended for their privlleprr.s upon the labor cf the enslaved. Would he train youth to make the labor-free hours useful? Then comes the question of whether lfinure itself docs not become drudgery and simply more work. Would ho turn the idle time into play? Then arL?e th obstacle that sports pencrally depend upon porno one else to thare them and the rearch for pleasure something of a task. The vi.e of fpiro time by men or women fixes not only their status in life, but the measure of happiness which in obtained from life. That there can bo a definite training for it is problematical, other than the opening of doors to such excursions into mental realms a.? may most appeal. The man who can find no other use for hin time than loaiing in the nearest pool room, playing cards, or gambling will pr to the end of life in a discontented frame of mind. The woman who iru.ct have excitement each hour in tho form of tfme trivial pleasure, who knows nothing of the b.nrpinens of giving to others of her personal sympathy, wrto needs the occupations Cf the thoughtless, will lind little real meaning to CxLstenee. The philosopher. of the ages have discovered the rather paradoxical truth that man. nuvt gregarious of animals, reaches true happine-v only when he reaches that state of mind where he finds himself his own company and where the trending of his leisure hours dos not depend upon the whims or . similar leisure of others.

WHAT IS A GOOD SPORT? A howling mob of 40,000 or thereabouts jeered in derision, made known thir contempt in all ways known to the human voice and called on Mr. Nehf a "rotten fport" lciu.-o he preferred, or happened, as you viv it. to toss a leather spheroid juPt beyond the riach of that eminent citizen and swatsman. Mr. liuth. He had the unqualified approval, undoubtedly, of eight oth r eminent citiz n? upon the same Held, the t.iht 1 .mg Iiis follow pbiyern upon the Giant team. Had Mr. X' hf thrown cautbm to the winds and. permitted tho t all to come within Ruth's reach, he would have been considered somewhat of a reckless traitor hy Iii! teammates while the earne mab that jtcnd him for hU eaution would have, in all probability, exr re.-ed their sentiments in terms of which "benehead" n.Uht be the mildest appellation. It 1- ;;hvays a question of opinion af to who Is the good sport ar.d who is 'yellow." Mr. Ilutii has thoroughly demonstrated the danger of to .r.g a ball in his icinity. if the opposing pitcb.er wi.-hes to wiu games and maintain his reputation. l!;s record h- si:,h that only th? Intrepid or ('Vere- T.Uib. t.t brave the const "quences of hit bat. TI.o ea;.:.t.us N' h?. in other walks ( f life often are fori 1 ;.. stand for momentary disapproval r.t it m s. t down as a fact that the man who di s to t j i p. ird otb.ers wh.o depend ur.cn him by ;i:r.- reekh ism ss will. in the end, receive the p'aiuli's ratiur thin criticism. Many a rr. in h is bt en, Iriven into devious paths by the fear of boimg a "poor p-rt." In the anteVolst: ad .lay.-, ho staggered home in the small hours To ":.! lo may linger around a card table with th- r.(y s..pplng away that he should take h :v. to -.':.- :v. :ly. The 4 p e di ln t matter to Nehf. The eight who Were wiili him a'td who relied upon him were sat-i.-'tied and ifs a prt tty good .cport that delivers f r tlnc-'o wh.o trut him.

THE DEMOCRATIC IDICTMEXT. Sli ci-unts are chared against the Harding idn.ir.istration 1 y th.o ilemocratie national committee w hich is er .1 avorir.g to share the platform of that party in the m xt elections. It charges that the president has betrayed America by ipgovtibg to publicly rebuke Ambassador (leorgo li..r i y for hi o'm:r.cr.:s en our participation In the war and putting the tfforts of the United Stat- s upon a mercenary and trail basin. It charge th - republican party haa become the apologist for corruption I e cause of lla Ftand in ivhltewajHhlr.g the rurchase of a seat In the senate by Newberry of Michigan. It charges graft in the shipping board because of the attempt to s-ell wooden hips costing as much tu JSGO.COO for $2. ICO. It indicts the president for throwing the surveyor central of Utah out of of.'.ce before the expiration of his term for the admitted reason that he needed the place to reward a republican. It accuwa tlie administration cf acquiescing in the sale of civil service Jobtf for money turned ever

to the republican committee and adduces ns proof, letter signed by a national commdtteernan in TennCSTe e. Its f.r.al count Is that the approprlitlon bill han been Juggled ro as to permit shifting1 of funds at will and that this power is ir.g used to delude as well as rob tho people. Thce w ho have in charge the rehabilitation of the democratic party phoubl bo reminded that the people make tho issues finally and that in none of thes counts is there a charg which i likely to overturn the forcfii of government. Uach one of the charges is soricus. especially thrso relating to honesty in elections and the destruction of the civil service f: rtc m. Hut the fate of the republican party will depend upon what it Joes before November, 1'j22, to relieve the people from burdens of taxation and how far it assists this country to get back to a basin of prosperity. If it shows undue consideration for tho over-rich, as Indicated In the proposals of exemption cn income taxes. If It falls to relieve the fundamental induHtrirrt of improper burdens. If its politics result only in reflected Rtatements of greater unemployment, the people cither through the democratic or some other party will f.nd a way to administer rebuke and give others a chance. The present administration will be judged on a bank-balance ba-ls and that lank balance which will be the final and conclusive proof will be the one to which the big majority of voters has ihf-t access. If the di.-Mrmamer.c conference results in cutting off of expenditures for new ships and a large part cf the army expense, it will survive. If it falls and ends only in piling up deficiencies in the rublic treasury and in private purses, ;t will go down.

1WT PA1D LV MONEY. "How do the teachers live, anyway?" asked Chief Justice Taft of the head of the University of Georgia, which Is starting a movement to obtain recognition of the high cost ef living for college professora. Judge Taft calls the teacher a member of "in some respects, tho noblest and most necessary profession in our society." The small payments to college professors, in comparison wdth the normal rewards that go to other professions, has been proverbial but the fact remains that there has been and will continue to b men and women who do not look upon this condition as an obstacle. Simplo living and high thinking have always been companion trait and those who devote themselves to scholastic careers do so with the knowledge that they will not bo paid In money for their life work. Their rewards come In the things that cannot be purchased. They find pleasure in their own development 'r.to broader fields of knowledge. They find atir ction in the achievements of those who have I ined In their lecture rooms. They have, almost necessarily, a philosophy ef life that eloes not demand great riches which would probably be a. handicap to them. Teacherrt live and continue to be teachers because they love taeir profession and find complete reward in Its other compensations.

FILMS FOR EDUCATION. The once despised and lowly "nickel show" has become an important adjunct to education. It may be news to most tax payers to know that they have a elircct ownership and interest In one hundred and fifty miles of moving picture films and that, this winter, approximately one million students and parents will se-e these films;. The Indiana university has the films which cover everything from a plcturization of "King Ixal" to the newest way for a foot ball center to hold the line. Teaching by f-ight and visualization is now recognized as not only a short ruüfl to knowledge but a much surer road. Geography becomes something more than a study of different colors upon the map when the peoples, cities, customs, products, ami climate are vividly shown to the young brain. Physiology and hvgh ne take on new meaning, when m-ethods of caring f r the human body are shown by example instead of taught by printed word. The extent of the use to which these state-owned film is put is largely up to local school authorities and it h to bo presumed that those of South Ilend will not ovcrloek this means of culture and improvement. Worst thing about a big standing army is standing it. o "All we have done i right," says a congressman. Should be "write." o Ponzl claims he can restore business. But he can't get away to try it.

Tin; "l'. xp.v roNCiKisMi-i-V." (New York limes.) It is hard to keep track of all the "blocs" formed and forming in this congress. The farmers have one. the ex-service nun have t h 1 rs. the irrigationistti are working in a group, there is a Pacific (.'oast bloc. The latest appears ta be the one dubbed "The Haby Congressmen." This rame, as might bo inferred, was given in contempt. P.ut it h:a been defiantly accepted by those to whom it was applied, as- if it were a badge of honor. They are a body of young members of congress or, at least. ef members young in service who have set out to dethrone the ruling oligarchy. Thire men. neodhsa to say, come mostly from western states. Westward the t-tar ejf blocdom takes Its way. Arrived In Washington, theso impetuous gentlemen found that they were net so much a bloc as blocked. They could do nething against tho veteran leaders, particularly of the senate. Their own adjective for those Kaders js nile rather than veteran. They talk of th" "r-!i.to dictatorship." and speak of it a. "upe -r-annuated." Ihr.ee the pro; osal, Indiana fashion, to knock the old men on the head and leave them .along the trail by which the progressive Baby Congressmen have marched to new triumphs. This new revolt is evidently patterned, consciously or unconsciously, after the one whicn broke up republican harmony early in Prts't Taft's administration. Then "Can mm ism" wan overthrown temporarily and great wns the rejoicing thereat. But some of the leaders in that reNllion are now the hoary conservatives who are rebelled against in their turn. S'o easily dees the lapse of years change a Baby Congressman into a lean and slippered reactionary. But let the good work go on. "Maxims reverentia pueris debetur." Out of the mouth of tabes and sucklingH in congress we may yet learn a lot. Anyhow, they will add tu the amusement of a nation now somewhat in the doleful dumps. o IIOIISI (Oklahoma Xnr'.) A horse that died 100 years ago has an JIS.OOO statuo of himself, erected at Middlebury, Vermont. Prom that horse, of Arab ftock, descended the famous breed of Morgan horses. Hordes, in general, deserve, a lot of statues. They first aproarrd on earth 3.0C0.OC0 years ago, the size of cats. They did man's heavy work, carried him in war and on long Journeys. Without the horse, we At ill would b in the barbarous state. We owe hort?es a mighty debt. Be kind to them.

JIM LCTIII31 CAN'T IIPDIi: TOY US. Jim Luther the city water works superintendent, has as many kids as an octupus has heels and toes, and a. a result has to now and then submit to a little kidding from his friends at the city hall. Jim, like Adam Ileeh'.er, doesn't know exactly how many he's got. but he guess s that he has quite a gang on his hands. Just from the number of pairs of shoes he has to buy dally. They're telling a new one on Jim. It seems that Mrs. Joe Neff, the chairman of the Memorial Tree committee, went to see him to try- to induce him to purchase one of the trees,. Jim. it is said, first Inquired how much one of the trees would set him tack; he found out it would be seven and a half berries, and then he hesitated. Mrs. Neff, an eight cylinder saleswoman, noting the hesitation on Mr. Luther's part, countered with the following: "Why. Mr. Luther, you ought to bo glad to buy a tree for yourself, one for Mrs. Luther, - and oi.e for each member of your family." air. Luther thought a minute, then he said: "I know, Mrs. Neff. but I'm afraid of a forest fire." "

FUN IN A PRINTING OIYICK. And while we are on the subject of memorial trees, we wish to tell you about a conversation we overheard between two of our printers yesterday: FIRST PRINTER "Have you bought a memorial tree?" SECOND PRINTER "Hell, no!" FIRST PRINTER "Didn't you read In Newman's ad today, 'Be as willing to buy a tree as the boys were to fight'?"

Which reminds us that A. R. Mayerfeld. of Newman's, has riuite a time wdth his young son occasionally, all because his heir delights to play with a can of re-d peal lye. A box of talcum powder seems to suit the young man almost asi well, however, as his pet stunt Is to leave a trail of white powder around tho house. The father thinks he's trying to lay out a Kail diamond In the parlor.

TII11 SPY. There's a little listening CJoblln who ;

stays round where children play!

And who writes down In his note book every single word they say. If they always speak politely and don't ever snarl or snap, Cr like very naughty children pull each other's hair and slap, He will tell his Ooblln Uncle, who will come around at night And distribute dreams among them till the dawn is fair and bright. Fleasant dreams for pleasant children those who mind their "P's" and "Q'ti." Have more dreams to make them happy than the average child can use. But if those same little children talk as children should not do Saying "I'd just love to slap you!" or "I'm going to tell on you!" If they cry when they are angry, or, if when they're sent to bed,

And smiling died that men might know Beyond all covetous desire A home roof and a happy fire. All history from age to age Recorded on the printed page Of battlefields strewn thick with dead And ocean waters running red The cannon smoke and screaming shell This very simple story tell, 'Twas all to save from wreck and doom The glory of the sitting room. (Copyright, 1321.)

They are naughty and defiant, and go hide somewhere instead. Uncle Goblin brings them nightmares, and they lie in bed all night Whi gro.it horrid grinning tigers ':" ": m i';-i: ,.f dreadful fright.

You can never fool the Goblin, he is troTc with ycu, And He sets down in his note book everything you say and do. If you think that what we tell you L not all exactly so Just take notice. when you're naughty and when off to bed you "o o o, If the dreams that you are giving aren't the kind that make you think That great evil beasts are creeping through a darkness-, black as ink. Anel if you have been behaving as all proper children should You will find your dreams are pleasant, and the creatures kind and good. You can bribe him or cajole him, foi the little listening elf Never makes your dreams up for you that depends upon yourself.
