problems. His quatralnes "Preparedne.-w," 'Duty and "Outwitted" were particularly attractivo and his reading of them ras full of feeling and understanding. Mr. Markham also read several of hin shortor poems and before each delivered a few cxplanatary remarks pertaining to tho Inspiration that -prompted tho work, tho 'characters concerned, and the thought he endeavored to kIv to the reader. Senat In Mistake? Theodore Price, editor of the Tvconomls'. And "Writer, New York, declared his belief that tho United täte eenato h&a made a mistake In passing tho law exempting from tolls at the TajiAJna canal, all our coastwise ehlrpinar. II declared It was a direct repudiation of our treaty obligations and on the ovo of the disarmament conferen-c It looked like" a notice to tho other nations of the world that they need not take our treaty proposals very riousty. "Tho obligation of good government Is tho most serious thin? In life." a!d ÄOr. Price, "because without good government all our ceonomlo etTortfl are In vain In a paper he read on tho present economic

situation In tho world Mr. Price paid: Tht present deprewton in business la, I think, very largely due to tho fact that It Is believed that the world !s poorer because of the war. I?ut Is it true that tho war has diminished the world's wealth by 3O0, 000, 000,0-00? People have been fcnovm to uffer from an Illusion of poverty. It In c. form of mental disorder with which alienists nre fantlUr. It ifl Just rs disturbing as real Impoverishment and unless It can be curd Its victims cease to bo cf use to society and are put where their depression and agony of mind will not react upon others. "Before we allow ourselves to drift into that condition lt uh examine tho facts. Has the world's wealth really been diminished by the war? Money n Yardstick. "Before this question can be answered a def.nltlon of wealth must be eyrecd upon. It Is generally admitted that wealth consists, not of money, which is simply the yardstick by which valuta are measured, but of things, lands, buildings, railroads, ships, machinery, tools, food, fuel, clothing nnd tho other essentials and luxuries of civilized life. Work of art and Jewels may also he Included because they aro products of labor or have an exchangeable value though they can hardly ho regarded as essentials. "Debts, whether they be owed by rations or individuals, neither diminish nor incrcaso tho world's wealth collectively considered, for If all the debts were repudiated or forgiven the. things of which wealth consists would still remain. Therefore if the world's wealth has been diminished by the war the things of which that wealth consists must he reduced In number, capacity, utility or productive power. Is this the c-ase In a single country except France, Belgium and perhaps Austria? The Vnited States is generally admitted to he better off than before the war. We have Just as much land. It is Just ns fertile. Not a single building was destroyed as en act cf war. The productive power of our factories is as great :f not greater than ever. Our railroads and all the other machinery of transportation and distribution are in yood v.-orkirg" order and our hanking system i. Immensely mre evident than it was. We have more gold than ever before .and if we wer considering what wt owed cr was owed us it might be added that we have become a creditor instead of a debtor nation.

clusively negative the idea that tho

war diminished the world's wealth by $300, 000,000, 000 or even a fraction of that turn. We know that between 1914 and 1921 the wealth of tho United States has been substantially increased. The chairman of the Royal Steam Packet Co., of

Great Uritain. says the world's ton

nage of ships 'in the water today is 11.000.000 tons, or 24 percent larger than In 1014. The wealth of Canada and the other dependencies of Great Britain has gained strength through the stimulus of war. Scandinavia, Holland, Switzerland and Spain all profited enormously by the war traffic and I am inclined to believe that If an inventory of the world's things could be taken today and compared with a similar Inventory as of June, 1914. it would show that humanity's wealth is much greater now than it was seven years ago." Vocal selectlonns were furnished by Elton Crepau.

(Continued from page cne) separate peace with Germany when the democratic rlatform of last year declared against a separate peace with Germany. The answer is that that was one of the issues of the last campaign and was settled by the last campaign. It was settled against the democrat and it will never be an issue again in a campaign. It was a part of our struggle for tho ratification of the Versailles trenty and we lost. We cannot revive the Versailles treaty by defeating this treaty; all we can do will be to prolong a condition of doul-t and uncertainty in our relations, with Germany." The senator contended that it was "Iii-h. time" for the United States to resume friendly relations with the Germany people and he urged that the United States appoint a mem- ! er on the allied reparations com-

Grinding to a Thousandth of an Inch Mechanical precision must work hand in hand with optical science to produce a perfect Uns for the aid of human vision. With extreme accuracy, ihe optical specialist can now measure those minute defects of the eye which denote dimmed vision or nerves crvcrwrought. With a knowledge of optical principles he can prescribe the exact lens needed to balance and correct these defects of Nature. But all this would be useless, were it not for mechanism so delicate and true that it can grind perfect curvatures of glass to the thousandth of an inch and finer. Thus, our factory, in which we grind and test our own lenses, becomes an essential part of the crvice of our institutions. To make that service complete in each detail, from the fashioning cf a lens to the turning out of a finished pair of glasses, is the ideal we have set to accomplish.
