NO CURE in SOCIALISM,
Cornell Professor Says MilIionaircs
Would Rule Anyway.

ithaca, NJ Y, April 6.-ProfeSsor
Jeremiah w. Whipple jerks, head OF
the department of political science and
political economy at Cornell university,
addressed the students yesterday on
the subject of Great Fortunes and
Their Uses"
"There are two methods of acquiring
wealth." he said. People render SER
vice for reward and some get rewards
for no service The trouble with the
first class is that they too often think
of the reward and not the service they
are rendering.
TT is said that no man can earn $l,-
100000 / do not think this is so. Is
there any way to measure service ana
determine its value? An operation
that would prolong the life of Shake
speare. a Lincoln or Washington Tor
ten years--is there any way to deter
mine the value of that service?
Can we determine the value of the
life of statesman who saves MS
country from a ruinous war? If man
ager of one factory can make 1t pro-
duce S1,000,000 a year, while manager
of another factory of equal value runs
it to a failure, it seems to me as If the
first man has earned the million dol
lars"
Speaking of rewards without service,
he said: Members of boards of di-
rectors of corporations who learn that
dividends are to be declared, go into
the stock exchange and use their
to their own advantage, are
like gamblers with loaded dice. They
are trustees for the stockholders and
every share they buy from them they
know all about it. Such dealing is
scandalous. There is no service. 1t is
stealing except the fact that the other
parties know of the gambling.
Men who found universities, col
leges and charitable institutions seek
ing to justify their getting wealth I'M
justly should be condemned.
''The socialists forget that there is
such a thing as human nature. The
same dominant personalities that COM
mand IN the world of private enter
prise would dominate the state II the
wealth should be owned by the state.
Surely they would run the state"

Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1906-12-20

With a sympathetic person ASSISTING
the little folks, there should be plenty
of fun.
"whose Are the Eyes"
"Whose Are the Eyes? which mas
attained great popularity, dimly sug-
gests the Vehmericht, the secret
tribunal of old Westphalla, in which
the Judges sat closely cowled ana
with their faces invisible. The game
however, is all mirth. Two OF those
that take part in 1t are seated side by
side. over the head Of each is placed
an outstretched newspaper In tnis
paper two holes are cut. The paper
conceals the head Of each OF the play
ers beneath and only the eyes are VS.

iect of the game is for the rest OF the
nlayers to guess the ownership OF the
ewes as they see them by holding a
candle close to them.

"Blow Out the Candle" One OF the

other merrymakers are gathered Inc

ornamented with representations OF
saints and angels, the Virgin Mary
and Joseph, the wise men from the
east, shepherds, sheep and oxen. The
presents are previously placed on a
great earthen swan in the center OF
the room, and as the young people
fall in line and march around the
swan, each gives 1t blow with a
small stick until the bird is broken.
Then the fun begins-a scramble for
the gifts ensues, followed by games
and the usual merrymaking.

...1iIgn IL ana in most cases tie pun
which should extinguish the candle Is
directed in the most absurd places.
"Bind Mans Buff"
II there is a person who has never
played this game, he will undoubtedly
seek to conceal the fact. The old can
Join with the young, and what coulc
cause more merriment that to see
uncle bump his knee against the table
or mistake Aunt Jane for grandma?
1.-THE Bobbing Apple"
This is delight pure and simple.
Hang an apple from the ceiling and
offer a small prize to the one who Is
able to grasp 1t with the teeth without
lingering 1t in any way. Let each
child try In turn.
Musical Chair"
This is considered great by the
young, especially If there is good
lively player at the piano. Arrange
the chairs in a row, having one less
than the number of players. When the
music suddenly stops each will make
an effort to seat himself, but one must
be disappointed.
"Charades."
The description of charades should
have been left for the last, because 1t
affords a true climax. Lucky are the
children who can go rummaging and
have in store for the party a whole lot
of old clothes with which to imperson-
ate the familiar home figures. This
game requires an intelligent person
to oversee It, and the children should
enter into 1t with much seriousness,
which gives an added charm to It, 1t
is great fun to see a little follow come
in wearing an old hat and shawl OF his
mammals or little girl clothed in a
large vest with a silk hat pulled down
over her ears.
Planning for the older guests on
Christmas day should be guided by
the aim to have them forget that they
are old. To say the least, 1t Is bad
form to, do and act in such manner
as to continually remind some old
grandma that she is nearing the end
of her course, when she might be do
ing her level best to forget 1t.
Games Are Old as Guests.
OF course, many of the older guests
will indulge in cards, chess or check
ers. while others will find their great
est pleasure in assisting the children.
But for those that really want to play
games in which all can join try these
and don't be surprised If one of your
guests remarks;
"Why, played that game when l
was child"
Rather expect it-for very little in
the celebration of Christmas Is new.

in this country under many names, but
as near as can be learned the above
