i MATTER OF PRIDE. When th prat F!u1bakfr corporation made Its yiartr;y announcement yeterdiy of Its great arhle-mnli, it directed the attention of the industrial and the financial "worlds towards the city of South Bend. for tho fi surrs meant that this city is the center of the leadership in a great Industry and hat from it directed the great rganizatlon whirh ha .attained the premiership In lta own choen fM. Had some brawny youth of this city succeeded in taking the ma.ure of Dempsy, plant fighter, or even Leonard, hiä ligrhtT prototype, the chance? are that lu?t night men would hive toed their hats Into the air in wild abandon, have cheered and shouted themselves hoarse at the great honor brought to the home town. Had one of Its sweet youn? women been crowned :h new queen of the opera and been hailed as the ieatest of singers, a parade of citizens, women weeping In happiness and men lifting their cheats in rride, would have carried flowers to the train which brought her home. Had pome favorite on fought his way to high political honor's and been chofln the governor of th'3 Ftate, the bands would have played and the town turned Into a turmoil of happy congratulation and happlnf. All of thse things might happen. Some day, they may happen and none o! them would mean anything at all when compared to the romantic ftrinff of figures which A. R. Erskine sent out to Iiis partners In his bu.clnev enterprise. Those figures meant that imperishable wealth was idded to the world, that luxury was brought much c!o?er to the common man, that leadership in a real service to the world had been attained through sheer forci of merit and of hardest work. It meant that behind that work was not only a vision that raw the need?, the desires, the capacities of a world but the power and purpose to make that vision a realitj. It meant that an army of men had been marsh" ailed for a common task and so chosen for their dutie that they conquered their main objective, on army devoted to usefulness instead of destruction, an army whose Individual units fit perfectly into a great organized force. It meant for South Bend that this city is destined to draw the Interest of other men of purpose and brains and power. It mear.3 that, as a community, every value is a little safer, every other Job a little more secure, every buslneea upon a founder basis and with a greater outlook. When the head of that organization told the world that his company s well equipped to maintain the position in the industrial field which it has taken, he gave a hint of further greatness, of further floods of wealth going to the residents of thi.4 city, of further growth In all the things that make for stability and for prosperity. The world has always loved champions. It crowns them all. But in its romantic way. It has generally tried to individualize. Some day it will also recognize the champion organizations which achieve kingdoms in the realms of peace and industry.

xotiukg ATir. Any one might be excueed if they remarked "What Is the world coming to?" after reading the first rage. of the newspapers in these frummer days. A multimillionaire, divorced from the daughter of the world's wealthiest man, is reported soon to marry a famous opera Mar, herself divorced from one of thA nation's richest men. Another mar. of wealth, Inherited, announces boastfully to the world through thfr medium of radio and cables that nt last he has found happiness in a bride taken a few months after the death of hi wife and that he Journeys with his titled daughter through the palaces of Britain's aristocrats. A famous American singer, recipient of the plaudits of the great operatic audiences, announces that she hns gone to Paris to learn the art of love anl that American women fall because they have not ftudicJ affection as a profession. She does not wish to fail in that direction. Tnee things micht lead, one to believe that the world is topsyturvy, that it la skidding badly in its morals an, its conventions, th-t instability and unrest are the guidlnr spirits of the age. You would think, perhaps that this is something new to the world and that it forebode disaster and he fall of civilization or such var changes in the social system as to make over again the world of a. naif century ago. You may be somewhat reassured If you happen to read of the recent discoveries of an Omaha minister, a student of hisdory. who has delved into the past and finds records written on the clay by Babylonian e'holars which might almost duplicate the front ;'t:cs of your newspapers. lie dissever? that ever, in that day marital unhappiness existed and has deciphered the stories of family quarre '.s that raged and waged and tore opart the great of that day in mu.n the ume fashion as the r.iustrious today parade their family b'ittlcs. He his found, going still farther back, that dories of family spat? are written Into the records ti dwellers if the cavj? and argues that perhaps mch th-r.cs have always happened. Fo while thfse thing? are nothing new, it might ieem that the world would have learned. In iti progress of organization, to guard against quar--e in families and if nr quarrels, against that spirit of diversified effort which destroys homes. In every modern business organization, a quarrel would be th s.gnal rf instant dismil. if pulled ff in business hours. The he.-td of su.-h an organization would hardly stop ? find out what the 1 revocation was or the origin of the disturbance. If it occurred in a highly organized commercial

office between a stenographer And a chief clerk, both would ;?o tlmost automatically. If it occurred In a factory, tw) ftaployes would be hunting Jobs and even in a. theatrical company, two 'jminaries of the stage wo ild be at leisure. Only in the home Is it etUl tt rated and still taken a part of life. The fame Omaha mlnistit, who has been so zealous in his search for r.lmost prehistoric tiffs has some theories as to the ture. Because he has found the first traces, per.iaps his opinion is worth while and this l .iat he suggest as a rtear.e of curbing any tendencies toward loosening vt home ties: . One: Abolish hasty marriage. Make marriage, more difficult, serious anl religious. Two: Determine mental and moral fitness of Applicants before Issuing marriage license. Three: Increase legal obstacles to prevent easy divorces. Four: Criminal prosecution should follow divorce euits wren evidence is submitted regarding Improper and criminal conduct. Five: Legislate to punish individuals who break up homes. Imprison the vamp. Six: Iet church and state co-operate to secure uniform divorce lawt.

THE ONLY GIRL. When you go back to the old home town, after being away many years, one of the most startling discoveries is the change wrought by time in felbws you once knew as town drurr' rds. loafers or bullies. A fellow who in his early twenties was a no-rood "never be worth his sale" steps up briskly an4 wrings your hand. You learn that he is in business for himself now and "doin fine." A little farther down the street you meet the fellow you once knew as the town bully. There is a sad, reminiscent vacancy in his eye, such as T'apoleon must have had at St. Helena. The system has caught him. He is industrious, obviously, but in such a timid way that you wonder If he went in for preaching1. f Then his great secret comes out. He, also, met "the only girl" and married her. He doesn't tell you, but you surmise that she has him well tamed. Another familiar face looms up. You cannot place him until you realize that it is because his red nose, bleary eyes and finger trembl have disappeared. The town drunkard! You wring his hand, comment how well he is looking. Then you ask him what he's doing to get "the stuff" these days. "Oh." he boasts, puffing up like a fresh blister, "I never touch the old hardware any more. Haven't had a drink for so long I suppose three fingers of it would make me sick. I quit when I met the only girl. We're married now. I voted dry." The good influence of good women is f.bout the finest thing in life. Toverty is a sad handicap. So is ill health. So are thousands of other forms of misfortune. But, when all is said and done, the worst kind uf bad luck that can happen to man is In not meetinr "the only slrP or in meetinr her and not getting her.

who's who. The latest volume of that interesting book. Who's Who, contains the names of 24,278 men and women that it deems important. You discover that important people, according to its classification, come from two sources. One class is composed of those who are given place because of some special merit upon their part or some action whicli the editors believe lifts them Above the ordinary level. The other kind are listed because the Jobs they hold, such as senator, congressman or Judge, or colonel in the army. No one in the army below the grade of colonel is deemed worthy of notice. No legislator below the rank of congressman calls for honor. It will be Interesting, if any boy born today should be given a copy of this book as a present, to have his Judgment when he reaches his fiftieth birthday. He would find this book either altogether unintelligible, a veritable romance of the unknown, or he would find It funnier than the antics of the Barney Google of that day. For - would look in vain for many names that tc him will mean much and he will discover that the efforts of many who today are listed as important have been reversed or forgotten. Out of the 500 congressmen, and senators whose names today are among the mighty, perhaps one or two- "will last In memory for five decades. The others will be known for nothing that was really important and lasting. Out of the list of many millionaires, perhaps the cool judgment of that day will discern those whose dollars created enterprises that contributed to the lasting welfare and "omfort of mankind. The dollars of the others will be forgotten with the filing of their wills. Out of all the judges listed in that book, it Is quite likely that not more than two or three will he remembered as having given real principles of Juetlce to the world; Lndis, possibly because of his bold strokes, and Lindsey, very unimportant as a Judge, because of his system of saving youth and redirecting the energies of youth. Out of the present day authors, poets and dramatists, perhaps four or five can survive the tests cf time. The works of others will be waste paper in that day. Make your own estimates on how many of the clergymen of this day and era will be known for lifting the level cf civilization to a higher point of idealism and faith through their sincerity of message and their power of rersuaslon. Yet this book tells the truth; but not the whole truth. Those : ?7S who gain prominence are really important in this day, filling their particular purpose, contributing a necessary eervice to the slow progress of civilization. What the book does not contain ts the list of other people who are Just as important, though not so prominent. The really important are those whose efforts keep the world moving along in its slow climb towards perfection. That would require a roster of the mothers whose aacrifice. whose inspiration, whose dally service inspires sons and daughters to the day's work and fits them for full duty. It would aLo require the names of the thousands vho do the commrnplaces of life, which are Just as essential as the tasks of those who for a moment occupy the center of the stage. Time is the great test. If that be applied, perhaps that book mifht be printed in a single page and still list all those whose roles are eternally important. Voliva says, "If my -wife ran for office I would run for the lake." and we sope she runs. o - We know a case of nerves that isn't a tiling but a case of nerve. o Ignorance is no bli;G in the eyes of the law.

nnnnmiiD to the sxake DCFAJtTMCNT. Dear Bilious: Tille about finding snakes in the city water; well, here is one more interesting. You remember when Tom Moss garage was on fire out here on "Llnecoln Way W. Our famous druggist and fisherman. A. W. Huff, declares he aaw a fish lying on top of the garage after the firemen had turned the water on the fire. He My3 there were many other witnesses to this fact and would confirm his etatement. Now that is more interesting than finding snakes, for it will soon be so that us fellows who cannot coax the finny tribe to fasten themselves on our hooks, 'or cannot get some of these supposed successful fishermen to furnish us with fLh can Just open our water faucet and get a mess of fish. The only objection to this will be that we will have to be careful that a snake does not come out and scare our business manager into a do-tor bill. Yours for fresh fish, A CITIZEN OF L.TNXTOLN' WAY W. TOWN.

THE MODERN FATHER, "Thanks. I don't smoke but I'll take one home for my daughter." POLITICAL NOTE. Mr. Jake Heekaman Is again bck in his chair after a two weeks' vacation at his summer home at Indian lake. Mr. Heekaman officially confirmed his return to the city In a statement Issued through his political manager, John Chess Ellsworth. "You can say for Mr. Heekaman." Mr. Ellsworth stated, "that he has returned, that he has again taken up his razor and clippers, Indian lake has returned to its former level and normalcy. With his vacation over, Mr. Hecknman will return to his old position of local political leader. I plan to groom Mr. Heekaman for sort of an office this fall. I don't know just which one as yet. Mr. Heckaman's friends are very Insistent that he come out for some office, so that he has decided to sacrifice personal gain and again become a political martyr." Mr. Ellsworth would not say anything further, except that Jake probably zuved back from the lake In his Ford car.

YOUR HEALTH

By Dr. R. S, Copeland

It is not an uncommon thing to hear at the corner grocery or to read in the newspaper that one of the neighbors has had a "stroke," and that one side of his body has been left paralyzed. The body is so constructed that each side is linked up by itself. The bones, muscles. blood-vessela and nerves are one-sided In their location and function. It may be said In general that the right side of the body is controlled by the left side of the brain, and that the left side of the body is directed by the right side of the brain. The brain, like the body. Is a twosided affair. Running down through the middle is a deep cleft, dividing the organ. Therefore, In most respects, we have two brains. If there Is disease or disturbance In come part of the brain the side of the body directed by this area will suffer. It may ehow itself by paralysis of one side of the face, with Inability to close one eye. and with drooping of one corner of the mouth. One leg or one arm. or both the leg and the arm of the one side of the body may be useless. Fortunately, the breathing muscles are not affected. Usually, too. the speaking muscles of the throat are undisturbed, although the tongue and lips do not respond to the will

to freak. The result is that epeakincia difficult, the tones are muffled, and. In some Instances, it Is impossible to understand the struggling efforts of the victim to mike himself understood. It is my observation that where there are facial paralysis and lo of arm and leg. the arm and hand are the last to recover. The face trouble disappears, an-d the foot recovers usefulness, bui the upper limb is slow to recover. One-sided paralysis is called "hemiplegia." It may come from injury or from a clot due to any cause. Fracture of the skulj. brain tumor, congestion of the brain due to intoxication or violent emotion any of these may cause hemiplegia. It may come without apparent cause. One may awaken from sleep to find one side paralyzed. Without bein conscious of the ellht stroke, the victim may get out of bed. and. on attempting to step will fall to the floor because of the uselessness of one leg. The treatment depends on the cause. If due to exudate or hemorrhage because of high blood-pressure, kidney disease or some constitutional trouble, the patient must be kept quiet and given appropriate treatment for the original trouble. The affected parts should be massaged and electricity should be applied.

TOO lTtlENDLY. He never caused a man to sneer, Was never taunted by a Jeer, Had never battled with a foe; But through the years that come and go. He smiled his easy way along And played the friend to right or wrong. lie never ventured night or day Out of the well-worn trodden way. He never pried adventure's lid. He Voted as his father did; But when an argument arose He sided both with friends and foes. He talked as one who loved the right. But he was never known to fight; Fearing the hate of men, he otayed Holding opinion but afraid To give them voice. In moments tense His silence gave no man offense.

Pleasant his smile and meek his w;ay, The same tomorrow as today. Living this life, its joy and smart. Yet shirking duty's sterner part; A friend to all he walked along. But friendly both to right and wrong. Who never braves the cynic's sneer, Nor wine the sinful braggart's Jeer. But seeks through life's long years to go Free from the malice of a foe. Buries his talents in the earth With nothing done to rrove his w;orth. Better to fight and fall than stay Upon life's tide-lines day by day; Better the Jeers than smüe cf those Who should be looked upon as foe?, For friendship has no value when It makes no choice twlxt knaves and men.

Small honor accompanies office; The salary almost Is nil. Won't they soon quit the race for such profitless place? Well no! Iff cot likely they will. Give a thought to our members of Congress: At the imminent risk cf their health. They gladly forsake golden chance, to make Uncounted and limitless wealth. Can ruch be expeeted forever To labcr Itice Trcjans to plan

Always misunderstood their constituents' good? They can, gentle reader, they can' Republics are always ur grateful? They groan tnd complain and protest. And armed with their votes often leap at the throats ' Of the men who are serving them beat. Bometlrr-e will there be a rebellion Of those who are tick of their lot? WiU they quit in disgust every oSice of trust? Well no very probably net! How dreadful the fate of the country If statesmen could never be found To pilot the ship on Ler perilous trip When civilians might run her aground!

HPHE average American home has more comforts and conveniences than the palaces of Europe. Home for home, the American household has a well-kept look, an atmosphere of prosperity and contentment you cannot find in the homes of any other country in the world. In foreign lands, the modernized dwelling, as we know it, is found only in limited numbers and then only in the larger cities. In America, even in remote rural districts, you find pianos, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, up-to-date heating systems, telephones and numberless appliances that go far to make life easier, happier and more worth while. You may not realize it. but America's high standard of home life is due largely to advertising. For the development of advertising is distinctively American. It has taken its place as a leading force in bringing together the interests and wants of a great, united people. And a large share of the credit for this development is due the newspapers. Stop and think how many of the appliances ycu use, the food you eat, the clothes you wear, and other articles entering into your every-day life, were popularized by newspaper advertising. Then you will realize what a vital part advertising has played and is playing in your daily life.

You owe it to yourself to read the advertisements. They mean a lot to you.
