Content is Always

A New Yorker celebrated for his
many millions declares that the rich
are not az well OF as the poor, who
have not such heavy responsibilities
TO worry them.
Many other rich men, perhaps most
Of them. hold in their hearts some
what the same opinion.
And every poor man believes exact
" the opposite.
To the man without money his re-
sponsibilities appear heavy indeed,
while thought OF wealth is like a
dream OF glory.
1t is deep question? No; not even
skin deep.
The commonplace fact is that nearly
every one OF us is more or less dis
satisfied with his lot. and jealousy
thinks the other fellow has the best
of it.
In youth we long for maturity, and
H. maturity we yearn for the happy
days of childhood. Whatever is be-

Jailed for Spanking
Her Sisters Children.

Because an Iowa woman spanked
~the children Of her sister in law, she
has spent three days in the Sioux City
jail. She fatty refused to pay the
fine put upon her for disturbance OF
the peace, preferring the martyrdom
OF incarceration.
Those children needed spanking, .
she said to the judge, and if their
mother won't spank them, somebody
must"
She has fine spunk. And she stands
UPON firm sociological principles. 1t is
a pitynghe has to languish in Jail while
there are so many children sorely in
need of good sound spankings.
Every state has its penitentiary

foundation rock OF all society; and
there all system of judgment and pun

The once taken upon herself by
this woman might, If consistently kept
up, revoIutionize society at its foun-
tain head.
The average mother spanks her
children whenever she feels badly. The
average father relieves himself of in
digestion or business worry by a re-
sort to the rod upon his unoffendine
offspring.
The right to spank their children is
an inalienable right of every parent
1t seems to be the only satisfaction a
lot Of parents get out Of them.
But the family spanking is entirely
without system, lin most cases. And
then, 1t is said there are cases where
the spanking hurts the parent NOR,
than it does the child.
In such cases as these, the obligini
sister-in-law, who Is able to see whe1
the children need spanking and t
give it to them. ought to be regarded
not as a disturber Of the peace, but a.
a blessing.

To Externinate
Old Bachelors.

Deacon Hemphill, of the Charlotte
Observer, has concluded that his con-
domination of woodrow Wilson has
failed to stop the Princetonian in his
onward march toward Washington and
has decided that bachelors must be
punished for not being willing to work
in double harness. He wants to make
them wear buttons, similar to the ones
worn by the admirers of Woodrow
Wilson.
Colonel F1ournoy said in his speeches
for congress that he woul I'D make bach
elors work on the hard roads after
they are Is years old, and there have
been various and sundry remedies Of
fered to make the bachelors take unto
themselves better halves, but still the
ranks Of the bachelors club is not
growing thin.
The Journal begs to offer a remedy
IL some enterprising lawmaker will
have the plan enacted into law. 1t is
merely to make all bachelors between
the ages of 20 and so serve as police
men or in the military companies. Dc
nor allow it to be optional with them
but make it compulsory service like
Germany makes it necessary for every
man to serve either in the navy OF
army.
Pensacola might take the initiative
in this campaign against the bachel-
ors and let the world know how II
works. Put the bachelors on the po.
lice force or make them leave the city
Certainly the women will approv'
the idea, and if the bachelors will no

To be Continued
1T PLEASES THE SERVANTS
Berlin Police Arbitrarily Fix the Sums
They Shall Be Allowed for
Food.

Another instance of the way in
which the Berlin police authorities in
terest themselves in every detail OF
the private life of the city's inhabi-
tants is afforded by a decree just is
sued by the police president which
arbitrarily fixes the sum per day
which is to be allowed for food to
domestic servants during their en-
ployers' absence in summer.
The term domestic servant" IN
cludes everything, from the maid of
all work of the small household to the
butler, with all his retinue of lesser
lights, in the house of the rich, and
the decree lays down that each man
servant shall receive a daily allow
ance of 35 cents and each maid ser
want 80 cents for food during the
whole time of their employers alb
sence.
The new Police regulation has been
greeted with more delight by the
servants than by their employers. es-
pecially among the middle classes,
where the domestic servant problem
in Germany is already acute enough.
Although the amount of the daily al
lowance cannot be considered as ex-
cessive in relation to the present
prices of food, when it is remembered
that the ordinary wage, which in Ger
many is anything from $3.50 per
month upward for the average domes-
tic servant, has also to be paid dur
ing the employers absence, it will be
seen that the new regulation will
mean a considerable item in the
reckoning of the middle-class family
about to start on its summer vacation.
