THE LIFE's AIM.

The sweetest songs come not from the
threats
OF those who are known to fame,
For over and over the wild birds
notes
Will put them all to shame.
The tenderest heart is not the heart
That makes the greatest show
But the one that comes in the hour OF
grief,
And helps to bear the blow.
The greatest life is never the one
That of wondrous acts can boast
But the life that sweetens some other
life
And supplies its needs the most.
And the life most needed is not the
one
That climbs to the migntier deeds,
But the one that helps another on
And gives 1t the love it needs.
Our prayer is not for share of gold
Or the things that the world calls
great,
But the power to help some brother on,
To g. higher and happier state.

Washington, March 1.-THE three
sprightIy daughters of Postmaster
General and Mrs. Albert Sydney Bur-
Lesson are looking forward to a lively
time in the national capital
The eldest daughter, Mrs. Richard
Van Wick Negley, of Houston, Texas,
has just made Mrs. Burleson a grand

find it convenient to travel IT is quite
probable that they will visit grandma
and grandpa in Washington Inas-
much as Mrs. Negley is young and at
tractive, she doubtless will be received
with much warmth by society in gen.
eral, with which she is quite familiar,
for she lived in Washington for six
teen years as the daughter Of then
Representative Burleson.
Daughters Lucy and Sydney Bur-
Lesson, aged eighteen and sixteen, re-
sPectfvely, have gone upon an educa-
tional strike. They declare that they
love their father and mother so dearly
that they no longer can bear to be
parted from them The young ladies
are in attendance at Sweet Briar Col
lege, near Lynchburg. Va Until the
parents became cabinet members the
girls found it quite possible TO be
happy at school although separated
from their parents.
Still, mother Burleson, good deal
of girl herself, is quite likely TO
take the girls from Sweet Briar and
put them in one of the Washington
schools, possibly George Washington
University. She is of the opinion that
the atmosphere of Washington So
ciety, where brilliant men and women
assemble in greater numbers than
anywhere else in this country, will be
an education in itself for the girls.

public mind. There liz no longer Sc
rious controversy over the proposition
that an industry which must over

to it's own community and to the ma
ton: that If it sacrifices the health
and future efficiency of its workers. II
is not beneficial force. but a center
from which radiate disease, vice and
fatal social weakness.
This principle being established, that
of the minimum wage has logically
followed. It's rapid development has
not been due to wave of sentimen-
talism. but has grown inevitably from
the conviction we have outlined. The
public has decided that IL overwork of
women and children is to be con-
demned and forbidden, then a wage
insufficient for support-that which is
a killing wage instead of living
wage-is not to be tolerated either.
So wide is the acceptance Of this
principle that many spokesman for
special privilege when questioned by
tempt to combat It. They admit that
the woman worker and the child
worker should have o living wage;
the only dispute Is as TO what con-
stitutes that wage.
The new American minimum wage
is not an Industrial, but a social ques-
ton, It is founded not on the In
dusSrial relations of the employer and
employee. but on the social relations
of the worker to the rest of the com
munity.
IT fixes the compensation that must
be paid to women and children in in
dustry at a figure which permits de-
cent living. Such decent living Is
Judged to be necessary for the pro-
lection of the community itself; and
the figure is determined not by the
power of one or the other side to
make exactions but by accurate scien-
fifc inquiry as to what amount is nee
essary for decent living. The prin-
ciple rests fundamentally upon the
fact that women and children are the
most valuable assets OF the nation and
that the governments first difty is to
see that those of them who labor
shall earn enough to sustain life
