Ii is explained that as long as there

the German cruisers. The seizure OF
islands in the Ladrone. East Caroline

to Jaluit Island, Is In fuldlment Of this
policy and purely for military pur-
poses. according to embassy officials.

there is no intention OF holding these
islands permanently.

BETTER RESIDENCES.

The past two years have witnessed
the erection of better residences in
Dallas than formerly. There was a
time when homes were built merely for
shelter, but that day is past. The
construction Of handsome homes adds
much to the city beautiful. But there
are many homes less costly that plain
ly show that Dallas is to rank high
among cities for its beautiful and
comfortable homes. Look around you,
please, at the houses built during the
past few years and you will see that
no matter how little is spent in con-
struction of a residence, some effort
is made to have it as artistic as
possible. The working people who
are erecting homes have as great a
desire that their homes shall be ar
tistic as have the wealthier people.
Whlle they nave not as much money
to spend on the construction of the
home, that doesn't keep them from
having snug little cottage that is
just as much a work of art as the big
costly house, and compares as favor
ably with them as does the miniature
painting with the huge mural work.
1t is true that to have an artistic home
costs little more, but it is such a
trifle when the satisfaction of seeing
it day after day and knowing that
it is something to be proud of is
considered.

WHAT THE WORLD OWES.

There are comparatively few people
in Dallas who think the world owes
them living, and that it matters lit.
tie how maintenance comes. Every
community, of course, has its drones
and the fellow who becomes disgrunt-
led because the world does not take
him at his own estimate, but in this
locality activity is the general rule
and the loafer is the exception. The
world owes that man a living who
makes an effort to collect the debt,
and it takes a man for his real worth
who at the market place of human
endeavor exhibits degree of worthi-
ness that will attract those looking
for the very best that can be offered
Many man is rusting out because
he fails to get a move on him. The
fellow who sits down and waits for
something to turn up fails miserably
when people are making estimates as
to real worth. The business man who
seeks reliable accountant does not
go among loafers when he is looking
for the right kind of material. Those
who are accomplishing things in these
busy days are the ones who are busy
The fellow who is employed, no mat
ter how menial the service, if he
does his work well, will attract the
of some one who has a pro-
motion in sight. The successful men
in this world today are those who be-
gan at the bottom The trouble in
these days is that too many young
men want to be Rockefellers, but they
want to start where Rockefeller is
now rather than where he started
years ago.

that great benevolent and fraternal
organization-the ,Elks-that has
made this greeting famous the world
over, but by all who possess a Jovial
manner. If there is convention, or
any gathering which brings people
from different sections together, this
greeting will be heard on all sides,
whether they are old friends and ac-
quaintances or perfect strangers. We
do not know how the expression orig
mated; why every stranger should be
Bill to every other stranger, rather
than John or Amos, Tom, Dick or
Harry. Perhaps it had its beginning
in the Harvard class song of the
quaint American humorist, Oliver
Wendell Holmes, entitled, "Bill and
joe" 1t begins:
"Come, dear old comrade, you and I
Will steal an hour from days gone by,
The shining days when life was new,
And all was bright with morning dew,
The lusty days of long ago,
When you were Bill and l was joe
Probably Bill has survived as the
synonym of comradery because it is
more euphonious in conjunction with
hello. Hello, Bill, runs trippingly
from the tongue, as most of the other
familiar names would not. 1t is re-
melodious and carries far
when uttered with unction.
Hello, Bill, is distinctly American.

A GOOD MOTTO.

A Dallas business man has, con-
spicuously displayed over his desk,
this helpful placard "Smile Lit
tie; Help a Little; Push a Little. u
Stop momentarily and consider what
whole treatise on success this mot
to is. If you wear the smile that
wont come off you turn away wrath
and disarm your enemy. People
smile back and conclude that you are
good fellow; the sun shines brighter
and the birds sing sweeter, and fra
grant flowers bloom in your pathway.
Help a little and you carry sunshine
across the Threshold where gaunt
hunger is gnawning; you clothe ten
der limbs shivering under means and
suffering to childish shouts of glee.
Push little and you make the desert
bloom as rose; you will aid in
advancement, build new res
licences and ornament unsightly
places, add factories and make
hive of industry where formerly the
sluggard slept. Smile a little, help
a little and push little and you shall
wear a crown-and the metal shall
not be of tin nor the jewels of col

TO FORM COLONY.

A problem that has received consid-
cradle attention is concerning what
will become of the large number of
white employees who have been en-
gagged in various capacities in con-
nection with the construction of the
Panama canal, when their task is
completed and the employees are "let
out" Several thousand men, many
of them with families, will thus be
thrown out of employment, and nearly
all of them will come back to the
United States. The question thus
raised has been carefully considered
by the employees themselves, of course,
and it is claimed that some of them
have hit on a plan which they think
will prove satisfactory.
One set of nearly hundred en-
ployes, for instance, has decided to
take up farming as the best occupa-
tion for them, and they will have
the hearty cooperation of the South
ern Settlement and Development Or
ganization, which is negotiating with
the prospective farmers through one
of its representatives, r. S. Person,
for several years an employe of the
government at Washington. Mr.. Per-
son went to Panama and interviewed
the employees who wish to carry out
the "back-to-the-soil" idea, and a
committee of them came back with
him to inspect several tracts of land
in the southern states.
As most of the employees who want
to take up farming, originally came
from the farm, it will be no special
hardship for them to go back to it.
Most of them have received a salary of
about $4,000 or more, and they have
saved money. Thus, they are enabled
to choose some suitable tract of land, |
establish a colony there, and continue
to live together and carry out more
or less the cooperative idea in farm
ing.
This is certainly an ideal way of
solving the problem of those who will
soon be without steady employment.
and wish to find a profitable occu-
patton.

THE FARMING INDUSTRY.

The Observer has previously ex-
pressed its want of sympathy with
the fashionable railing at the farmers
of the country for their inefficient
and unprogressive methods. We have
believed that this industry is as well
conducted and has made as much pro-
gress as most other industries that had
to be developed in a comparatively
new country.
This view is confirmed by statistics
lately collected by the bureau of sta
tistics to show the ratio of agricul-
tural production to population in a
series of decades, beginning after the
civil war. In almost every case, the
production per capita shows a large
decrease, and in every case the value
shows an increase. 1t is to be re-
membered that the ratio is taken to
the whole population, though a much
smaller proportion of the whole is
engaged in farming than forty years
ago. The purpose of the compilation
is to show that agriculture is keeping
up the supply of food for the whole
The exhibit favorable to
the farmers is only identical. For
that reason it is far more valuable.
Going into details, cereals have in
creased about 25 per cent, cotton has
doubled and hay, a very variable
crop, exceeds % per cent. increase
on the average since the first decade.
Animals show little increase, except
horses, in spite of bicycles and motor
ears, and even decrease in some cases,
but the explanation is obvious. The
statistics are given by numbers, and
in all cattle but horses
is shown by increase of weight and
yield of milk and wool rather than
