A WAVE OF ExTRAvAGANCE.

That the United States government is
not the only nation in the world which
| is spending public money with such a
lavish hand that 1t faces big deficit in
its treasury is pointed out with clear
ness by recent editorial in the Boston
Evening Transcript. In fact it would
seem that there is something of a world
wide wave of extravaganza sweeping on
its way and making things uncomfor-
table for the pockets of the taxpayers
in many climes. The Transcript says:
Three of the great powers, the United
States, Great Britain and Germany, are
about to wrestle with the deficit ques-
ton. The British Liberals estimate the
gap between revenues and expenditures
which parliament must make good by
new taxation as $50,oO0, 900, while the
Conservatives, after the manner of op-
positions, put it as $4,000, 900. The Ger
man government wants Sis, 900 900 more
revenue at once, and here in the Uni
ted States we know that when the
books are closed at the end of the cur
rent fiscal year there will be a deficit
of more than s10O,O 600. Congress keeps
right on as if there was no such thing
as inadequate revenues. In all three
countries big military and naval ap-
propriations are largely responsible for
the excess of expenditures, though in
neither Great Britain nor Germany is
the proportion of the taxpayers money
devoted to fleets, pensions and armies
as great as in our own. Not even ad-
versity teaches economy to these three
nations, which are in the front rank of
enlightenment. We have passed through
hard times in the last two years, in
which Germany has also had some un-
fortunate experiences. while Great Brit
ain is suffering from unemployment" !"
which is simply another word for busi-
ness depression. A wave of extrava-
gance seems to be sweeping over the
great national legislatures, and between
military preparedness" and "sociolo-
gical experimentation the taxpayers
appear to have nothing else to do but to
''grin and bear it,

A SATURDAY SERMON.


He becometh poor that deaIeth with a
slack hand: but the hand Of the diIigent
maketh rich. Proverbs x:4.
In this era of life, particularly in this
country. the habit has been developed
all too generally of rushing through
with affairs of every kind in the easiest
and quickest way. Men make up their
minds to reach a goal and they start
on the road to it with a hustle and a
hustle that makes for anything but
perfection. They often achieve what
they are apt to look upon as a success,
the realization of their dreams. but
most of the things accomplished in this
way lack permanency. slack hand
has been used in the building of them
In one or more of their essential de-
tails. These mistakes are not noticed
IN the process of the making, but when
the structure is completed it is soon
found that there are many weak
members in it. 1t totters and frequent
ly falls to a complete destruction Then
1t Is often too late for the beginning
OF another to take it's place. And so
the man who has worked in this way
finds that his efforts have resulted in a
failure.
There are many self-evident proofs
eAiS@I Ills - lIue III Cn6 history OF 6ach
day. To no one but the victims of
their own carelessness and slackness
does the realization come stronger that
their efforts might have been crowned
with lasting and material success if
they had used the utmost diligence in
the laying of the foundations for it
