k"NR u > L BUSIlNG, as
sometimes practiced. is
sport for politicians, but
means dynamiting prosperity and
puncturing pay rolls
American dissolution and Eu-
ropean cooperation win surely
put the skids under our prosper
ity.
In fact, the skids are under US
now. or there would not be ca

Exporting raw materials and
foodstuff means skimming our
cream and giving it away.
We must use our raw materials
and consume our foodstuffs right
here. Then let us sell manufac-
tured products. BY so doing, we
slphon into this country the
wealth of the world, and in this
wealth all of our wage learners
share.
Henry Ford first supplied the
home market. and when this was
supplied, he had facilities to sup

day there are Ford agents in

Punish the Man.
Let nothing that is here said be
construed into a palliation of
wrongdoing.
Guilt is personal. and the man
who violates the rights of per-
son or property should be pun

ration will answer Punish the

Here is where President Will
son is on absolutely sound and
safe ground.
Also, President Wilson is right
in his view of interlocking direc-
torates.
Directors should be men who
direct. They should be directors
in fact as we'll as in name. One
thing that will make them so is
to hold them directly responsible
for the conduct OF the business.
The conscience of the times has
been quickened. We now recog-
nize that truth is an asset, and a
lie is a liability.
Every sane person knows that
he can only help himself by help

In order to prosper we must
add to the prosperity of others.

and for, the bigger and better
are we. There is only one rea-
son for sending a person to eth
er the penitentiary or the insane
asylum and that is because the
individual is unwilling or unable
to cooperate with other people.
Government Supervision.
Big business should be super
vised by the Government, because
the Government represents the
people, or the ultimate consumer.
In fact, we ourselves are the
Government. But this supervision
should be for the purpose of CO.
operation, quite as much as for
criticism and search for wrong
doing.
In every possible way the Gov
ernment should cooperate with
enterprise in order that increased
efficiency will follow. And effici-
ency means producing the COM
modities that are necessary to life
in the most economical and effec-
tive way.
Efficiency means better quality
and decreasing cost, and in this
work of efficiency the laborer. no
matter how mean his task, must
not be overlooked.
This man must have opportu
nifty to grow, to evolve, to accu-
mulate, to become.
Also. old age pensions must be
encouraged, and a system of ac-
cident insurance be placed on a
permanent business basis.
This to the end that litigation
may be eliminated, and the family
or those dependent on the in
jured man shall receive an in
demnity rather than that It
should be divided with lawyers
On these things all good men are
agreed.
Need Of Cooperation.
The question then reduces itself
/ to this: Shall the Government
continue to respond to the voice
of ignorance and superstition, and
continue to harass, hamper and
destroy the engines of prosperity?
To this employers and employees
everywhere say, NO!
What we want Is industrial
peace and cooperation between
the Government and our great in
| dustrial or welfare making insti-
tutions. This to the end that the
workingman shall prosper; that
the ultimate consumer shall be
able to buy his commodities at
the lowest possible prices con-
sistent with safe business. Also,
that-he shall have a buying
power.
All business men. all workers,
all wage -earners should unite in
a common brotherhood and work
for the prosperity of all Ameri-
cans, to the end that Government
shall be on a business basis, and
that the people Of America shall
thrive and prosper and be happy
and reasonably content.

ClNCE my arrival in America T
have found time to create
number OF gowns to complete
my collection for the present season.
Naturally have takenpalns to make
some of these gowns ones which are
well suited t. the favorite pastimes
Of your strenuous nation.
On all my visits 80 this country
have been deeply impressed with the
American fondness for afternoon
amusements. When Paris is only
Just beginning to open it's eyes you
energetic Americans are already
through with your luncheons and are
preparing for your teas, your after.
noon weddings, your dances and your
skating parties. Each of these call
for peculiar type OF dress, and It Is
these needs which I have endeavored
to make my newest creations meet.
For example. consider the little
skating dress which have Just com.
pieted and OF which present a pho.
tograph on this page to-day.
This useful out-of-doors costume is
OF gabardine. The rather tight skirt
is open at the back to allow the
skater perfect freedom, while the
upper tunic is cut full and bordered
with squirrel. The bodice sways
from back to front with the ends
sticking out and quite untrimmed-
Just as If the whole thing were
piece Of velvet thrown over the figure
and with the two corners tied Sc.
curely in at the waist.
A winsoms little Russian hat, with
tie and muff of squirrel to match,
complete what is to my mind an ideal
costume for the frozen pond or river
or the indoor skating rink.

But for all that, the dress that, to

The large hat of brown velvet

A charming gown for luncheon to

The bodice is of gray lace and fur,
and there is brotade belt of blue

bright green. A little soldier hat Of
broadtail has paradise In front.
And now just few words as to
things seen lately in New York that
consider exceedingly smart. Very
large single.stone rings, either in
pearls or in colored stones, are very
fashionable. On the third finger of
the left hand huge black and white
pearls, each mounted in separate
ring, look well. have seen, too, a
large cut onyx deliberately mounted
in very fine circle of diamonds.
In fact, black and white jewelry In
any form is very smart. I.have seen

Deepest Wells IN the wnrId.

the world. It has reached a depth of
over 7,S48 feet. a tr.fe under mile

has three wells ranking next in order.
That near Mcdonald, Pa. some ten
miles southeast of Pittsburgh, is $3.50
feet deep; one in Putnam Heights,
Conn, is 1904 feet deep, and one now
being bored at Derrick City, Pa, has
reached the depth OF $500 feet. AL

UNIQUE SHIPMENT OF BIBLES
Cooks Destined for instruction of the
Heathen Are Most Carefully
Sent Forth.

The Bible house at New York city
has recently made shipment of 1000
Bibles on q voyage of $4,000 miles.
Poison was worked into the covers Of
the books to hinder the operations Of
destroying insects. The Bibles were
soldeTed up in tin boxes containing ten
each for protection against waves and
weather The tin boxes we're repacked
In pairs In heavy wooden crates de-
signed to withstand the hard knocks
incident to many reloadings and to
long journeys under varying condi-
lions. These Bibles. being a part Of
the eighth edition printed in the Ian
guage Of the Gilbert islands, are to ar
rive ultimately at Ocean Island, a.
small speck in the Pacific 5000 miles
southwest of San Francisco, lying al
most under the equator. Ocean Is
land is only mile and half in dia-
meter, but it is visited by many steam
ers on account of its rich deposits Of
phosphate. Hence its choice as a dis
tributing center for Bibles in the is
lands of the Gilbert group. Mr.. Rich
ard Grenfell of Australia, acting for
the American board, will send or car
ny these books on adventurous voy.
ages of 200 miles or more to the mis-
sion stations scattered through the is
lands.

WHY NOT ENERGY FROM SUM-
Problem That Should Engage the At
tentIon Of Those Interested in
Deep Experiments.

In view of the fact that the sun
delivers energy to the earth at the
rate of 1000 horsepower per acre, it
is not surprising that the problem Of
devising a motor which shall trans
NIT this energy INFO useful work has
proven an attractive one to the exc
perimentalist. Thus, IN California
there was erected plant in which
the heat rays were made to converge
upon steam boiler, that generated
sufficient steam to run an eight-horse-
power pump, Two more modern and
perhaps better known installations
are those erected at Philadelphia, and
later at Meadi, Egypt. the plants in
these two experiments being designed
on the principle Of concentrating the
SUMS rays upon a boiler of large area
and very low pressure.
An analysis of the Egyptian plant,
made by Mr.. A S. 2. Ackermann, B.
&C.. extended over three weeks; dur
ing which he was able to record as
the highest output only 1s.1 pump
horsepower from a sunshine absorb
ing plant covering seven-eighths Of
an acre. That Is to say, he recorded
less than 20 pump horsepower, as
against the 5000 horsepower which
would have been obtained from a per-
feet motor, capable Of utilizing the
SUMS radiation direct
The result show how little promise
there Is of obtaining mechanical ener-
gy from the sunshine on a CONNER
ciaIly economical scale.

IN The WHITE HOUSE GARDEN
Flower Beds With Their Profusion of
Blossoms Testify TO Mrs.
Wilson'S Skill.

The bewildering mass Of roses, shad-
ing from the deepest crimson to the
palest pink, now blooming in the White
House gardens, gives evidence of Mrs.
Wilson's skill as landscape gardener
and rose culturist
In this garden, screened from public
view by the main White House on the
east, the Office buildings on the west
and the extending north terrace, or
wing, Mrs. Wilson has passed many
busy hours Here she takes the air
and during her convalescence from her
recent illness her progress was reg.
istered by the frequency Of her visits
to the gardens and the duration Of her
stay. In the last few weeks Mrs. WIKI
son has spent much time looking over
the bushes, pluckng the choicest
specimens for the bouquet which al.
ways stands on the presidents desk.
or gathering nosegays for particular
friends.

Roosevelt had planted when she re-
modelled the gardens about ten years

between the executive Offices and the
south entrance to the White House,
the path which the president travels
i, and fro daily bisects the blossouing
plants
No one takes greater pleasure in the
roses than the president, whose out
door office, or tent, Is pitched at the
far end of the garden.
Rising in masses the young bushes,
which were set out last fall under
Mrs. Wilson's personal direction,
sweep tier after tier northward. The
center bushes have roses of the dark
It red shades, these at either end
pale from blush rose pink to the
palest tints.
The garden to tho south is fanked
by wonderful bed of jellystock and
guapdragon and other old fashioned
flowers, the entire scheme having been
thought out by Mrs. Wilson, who had
the gardens plowed up last fall shortly
after her return from Cornish.
Subsequently she, with her daugh-
tiers and Miss Helen Woodrow Bones,
the presidents cousin, spent much
time not only in directing the work, but
II many instances taking q hand them-
selves and working for several hours
at a time. The planting and arrange
ment Of the garden follows custom

-ious homes she has occupied since
her marriage. At Princeton her work
was one CT the most distinctive exam,

GET PATENTS IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Simmons Mfg. Co. Seeks Protection
for Products Far From Home.

The Simmons Manufacturing Com
pany with view of protecting its pro-
duct far from home has applied fer the
issue of patent rights to it for folding
chairs in Orange Free State of South
Africa. The Simmons folding chair is
declared to be the most practical pro
duct of the kind on the market and
there has been developed large ex-
port business on this output of the
Kenosha company. The American pat
ent right would be Of no value in South
Africa and in order to protect the
company against infringement the pat
ents are being secured there. It is de-
elared that the export business of the
Kenosha company is growing by leaps
and bounds and that large quantities of
the folding chairs are being sent not
only to South Africa, but to many
other distant countries annually.
