BEGIN AT THE RIGHT END.

The opportunity for increased trade
with South America presented by the
European situation has brought out
many suggestions, more or less prac-
teal. as to the best and most eX-
peditiOus means OF establishing a
credit system which will enable our
southern neighbors TO take our prod
ucts and pay for them. The discus
sion is serious and interesting and will
doubtless develop some feasible plan
Perhaps the most unique and at the
same time the most practical of these
suggestions has come from Melville
w Mix. head OF the Dodge Manufac-
turing company at Mishawaka and at
one time president of the Indiana
Manufacturers association. Mr.. Mix
thinks II Is our first move. that we
should take the initiative by buying OF
the South Americans in order 10 es-
taDlish a credit for them. send the
buyers down first. he says and the
salesman later. In other words. give
the South Americans something TO
buy with and then sell to them. other
wise Mr. Mix thinks We would be be-
ginning at the wrong end
The people of South America are
very much in the position OF farmers
in a new country who have nothing
but their products and no market for
them. They want 10 buy. their needs
are great. but they must sell or pred
icate before their orders will be hon
ored. Mr. Mix thinks. apparently,
that it is better for them TO sell than
10 predicate. Selling gives them an
Immediate and maximum credit with
the purchasing nation. and as Mr..
Mix suggests their trade will natural
~ go TO those who purchase their
products.
Mr. Mix's idea was presented in a
letter TO the Indiana Manufacturers
association and the substance Of the
letter is printed in The News-Times.
The suggestion viii be presented to
the national association of manufac-
turers for consideration. II embodies
concrete principle OF trade. that
represented by reciprocity but IL goes
farther by urging the initiative Buy
ing first serves two purposes. 1t not
only enables our neighbors TO buy in
turn. but is a manifestation OF our
good will and desire TO help.

dates before the people. it is differ
ent. They are sparring for place. 1t
is up 10 them 10 find fault. To con-
cede anything would be regarded as
traitorOus TO the parties that are
backing them. IL is not a question Of
what is good for the country, but can
we get into office? They do not dare
TO say for a moment that they would
reenact the high tariffs of the
Payne-Aldrich law; they do not dare
TO say they would go back TO the old
currency system. or that they would
precipitate a war with Mexico or in
terfere in Europe, yet they find all
kinds of fault with what Pres. Wilson
and the democratic congress have
done in these particulars. which fault
finding the people are supposed to &C
cept as sufficient reason for turning
democracy down.
When Sen. Shively comes every cit
izen who believes in his country and
that country's welfare, regardless of
partisan supremacy, should make GER
tain TO hear him, for after all it is
the country's welfare rather than par
tisan welfare that affects the masses.
The senator has a message worth
hearing. 1t comes from the bed
rock of common sense and talks diff
ferently from illusions of putrid air
such as comes well-nigh symbolizing
the dissertations Of his opponents. 1t

effective through enforced WEAKNESS.

WAR TO THE BITTER END.

Lovers OF peace must resign them
selves to the conviction that the war
must go TO a finish that is that the
issues long pending between the ma
tons engaged in hostilities must be
settled before bloodshed will cease.
The trouble has been too long brew
ing and luminosity has grown too Bit
ter to permit a smoothing over of diff
feTences now.
The outside world may as well set
tie down and await the issue with as
much patience and fortitude as it can
summon, ready at all times to step
forward and aid a peaceful solution
but maintaining proper respect for
the right Of the belligerents 20 settle
their own affairs in their own way.
II is a painful spectacle that is being
presented on the battlefelds Of Eu-
rope and a grievous sacrifice that is
being made. but there is no help for
IL. The antagonists are determined
that there shall be no uncertain issue
and have grimly, though politely. told
the bystanders to keep hands off.
Whatever the motives and purposes
OF Germany may be. whether in an
aggressive manner she is conducting
defensive warfare and sincerely be-
Heves that her welfare as a nation
was menaced. and whatever ultimate
object Russia may have England and
France are fighting Prussian militar-
So, " ~ ~

the latter precipitated the war the
opportunity has come and they have
seized il with avidity and are persist
ing with ;enaciIy OF purpose. The
seEtimen, expressed by both is that
they viii not desist until this pur-
pose is accomplished
Prussia is the dominating power in
Germany Bismack constituted 1t a
military despotism 20 which all the
weaker states that compose the Ger
men empire yielded allegiance The
perfection OF this political and mill
tary machine has been in progress
ever since and its growing power has
been viewed with alarm by France
and England. IL has become a mat
ter OF supremacy in Europe and any
result short of a definite settlement
OF the issues between them and Ger
many would only postpone the final
conflict
Germany has staked everything on
the turn OF the die. The prestige of
the PrussiRn machine AT home and
abroad depends upon her success. II
she wins the integrity OF the German
empire and its supremacy in Europe

RURAL SOCIAL CFNTERS.

The crying need OF rural Indiana is
said TO be social centers. wher the
young people may be entertained and
competent leadership. These centers
are regarded as essential to holding
the interest OF the young in rural
life.
The idea has been very well exein-
plifed in the cities. where the school
houses have been utilized for the pur-
pose 1t has been found compare
lively easy to interest the people in
these centers, especially those who
have few social diversions and whose
time and thought is so largely occu-
pied with the bread winning problem
that many of the good things of life
have been denied them. The mo-
notony OF rural life is often spoken
OF as though 1t represented the last
word in uneventfulness. but there are
many people in urban communities
who live more secluded lives than
those on the farms.
Outside OF church services these
urban people had little TO break the
monotony OF working, eating and
sleeping until the social centers gave
them an opportunity to mingle more
freely with their fellows. What has
be equally IL not more possible in the
country where a more general mutual
acquaintance and a different distribu-
ton of working time make for con-
geniality and opportunity.
There is nothing Incompatible be-
tween farm life and culture. On the
contrary rural residents live amiG
aesthetic surrounding. Their outlook
is not limited by bare walls and the
sky Is not seen in sections through
narrow Sits. They can see the sun
rise and set, the whole broad expanse
of the heavens are open to their view,
they see the handiwork of the creator
in growing things. in the renewal OF
bird and animal life. Their lives are
set in the midst of the most inspiring
/ things.
But this environment is inspiring
and attractive only to those who I'M
/ derstand ii. who comprehend it's sig
/ nificance and can see with the eye
! Of intelligence its hidden mysteries
and who are capable of responding to
its appeals for appreciation. Only the
culture and refinement of the ex-
change OF thought can give that, and
these may be obtained in the social
center
The strongest holding bond that
/ can be wrought is a community of in
| terest, which gives mutual pleasure
and profit and which lends to the sur
roundings, whether they be rural or
urban. a real appreciation of values.
