TELLING OF MR.. TED

There Is nothing like being able to
tell the people what they wish to
know.
Time was when many people, in
ending Pinchot and Elihu Root. We're
ambitious to know what was to be
expected of ex-President Roosevelt
when he returned to this country.
That is Of the far and very dark
past.
The matter has been settled.
The Honorable Wilberforce Jones
OF some place and the editor of the
local Republican newspaper, Friday
1.-THE hangman's day. told the anxi-
GUS millions what might be expected .
Moreover, they admit OF no ques-
tioning simply hand us that adj
vance information which, no doubt,
they have kept in sealed cans all
winter and told those who we're all
J, in sea of doubt TO come forth and
be made wise.
Il is to be hoped the gentlemen
make no mistake.
1t is not likely they did.
Still. as we trot by. our scouts out
TO see If the weather is pleasant OF
the water deep. one might reflect
that Merry del Val got mistaken as
to the Roosevelt program-seems
like this fellow Roosevelt gets in the
habit of doing as he darn pleases
every once in so often. But oi
course the ex-President would not
disappoint the Hon. Wilberforce moi
the journalist of peculiar renown
Wouldn't dare do it. No, sir.
But, perhaps, We should all wal

HohenzollFin and Edward SumthiI

1t is a little odd that what Is re.
garded as two very important
branches of life have little to offer
in the way of compensation. 1t is a
well known fact that ministers and
school teachers are miserably under
paid for the work they do and the
influence they exert upon humanity.
1t Is much harder TO save souls than
to mend bodies, and one can hardly
imagine state in which the teach,
er Is eliminated
The demands made upon ministers
are many and difficult to meet with
out liberal income. They are ex-
pected to have families and comes
and must be able to meet the mem.
bers of their parish on terms of
equality. That means good clothes
and a home without hint of pov.
erty. and only minister's wife know
by what struggles such marvels are
obtained.
Then, too, minister should be able
to make practical charity a feature
of his life There is poverty in near
ly all parishes, and when money is
at a low ebb at home minister must
beg, and beg hard. to secure the aid
that is needed for individual cases
II am not even remotely connected
with minister's family, but as a
cool business proposition | think a
minister's salary should bear proper
relation to the expenditure of time
and strength and thought.
The question of adequate salaries
for teachers has been discussed for
years without results. Teachers must
be well dressed and we'll fed, they
should be free from worry II the best
kind of work is to be done II is i'm.
possible to more than exist upon the
meager salary so many OF them re-
ceive. and there is a long summer va.
cation to face, usually with flat
pocketbook.
II ought not to be expected that
after woman has given the best
part OF herself to roomful of child
rem she sould spend the evening in
sewing. but that must be done In
very many cases. All teachers are
not blessed with homes and solici
tous mothers and sisters. II Is just
as important for the teacher to ease
the strain ON her nervous system by
recreation or rest as for the business
man to lock his cares within bis
desk, and every physician advocates
that course for men and women In the
business world.
We are surely coming to The day
when work of all kinds will be proper
ly rewarded. The faithful worker
will be the gainer-the shirk will be
no better off than at present. The
man or woman who does the work Of
two departments will receive two
salaries. and those who do less thall
their best must be contfpt TO- plQd
through life in a hand-tom0uth fash.

ing that there are 30 many such slips,
and that there are few causes mere
worthy Of support than one which In

more frequent than they now are.
This cause Is that OF the ant-public
drinking cup crusade. And lest you
may get an idea that this cause hasn't
much show, this list OF crusade VIC
tories Is In order:
The public drinking cup has been
barred from every schoolhouse, cail-
road train and station In Wisconsin,
Michigan, Kansas, Mississippi, Okla.

from every schoolhouse In California
The public drinking cup has been

more powerful and lasting than all
the 'innocuous desuetudes" in the
world.
Poets find long words admirable for
the sake OF melody rhythm and cad
ence. BY the artistic use OF Latin
derivatives, they build such harmon
ious lines as Tennyson's:
The moan of doves in immemor-
ial elms.
And murmuring of the innumer-
able bees"
And yet, the line pronounced by
Matthew Arnold the most beautiful
line OF poetry In English literature,
has not long word or a Latin word
In 1t; 1t is pure plain Anglo-Saxon.
He referred to WORDSWORTH descrip-
ton of the Supreme-Power:
Whose dwelling Is the light of
setting suns"
For conversation, at least, and also
for ordinary writing. there can be no
doubt that short words are prefer
able. Let us consider a few more
long-and-short synonyms:
Decapitate-behead, deleterious-
hurtful, demonstrate-show. denomin-
ate-name, depart-go, detriment-
harm, Observation-Disclosures, domicile--
home, donation-gift, economical
thrifty, elucidate-explain, enamel
pate-free, encomium-praise, endeav-
or-try, enunciate-utter, equestrian
-horseman. exceedingly-very exces-
sively, expenditure-outlay, explicit

Observation-Disclosures, magnitude

gar, moribund-dying, necessitate-
force, obligate-bind, operative
workman, opulence-wealth.
1t Is odd that 30 many persons con-
slider these long words better
English" or even better grammar"
Just because they are long. The short
or synonym of each pair Is usually to
be preferred. The longer words are
correct, Of course, and are useful for
the purpose Of variety when one
wants to avoid repetition of the same
word, OF for the sake of a musical
cadence, or because OF fine shade
Of meaning not contained In the short
er word.
But there Is absolutely no value In
long words merely as long words.

The substitute for the public cup Is
the pocket cup or the paper cup. The
handiest means for supplying cups to
