taste of real life-what have heard

Weston smiled to himself. She
called this seeing life! And indeed
these days she was quite in lutter OF
excitement all the time. Weston had
tickets he could not use for this con-
cert and that Matinees came just
when he had pupils, and 1t was
shame to waste the tickets. He was
tremendously diverted by this delicate,
flowerlike woman, who felt that she
was indulging in mad orgy of music.
He learned to look forward with keen
interest to her comments on the con-
certs she attended. Self played so
small part in her enjoyment. 1t was
always not how she felt, but how the
music affected the audience. And grad
ually he discovered that she had a de-
cided gift of criticism, which was de-
veloping under the course of reading
he prescribed for her.
Something he knew, too, that his
pupil of thirty-one had not discovered.
Under the magic of indulging the one
great longing of her lifetime she was
cheating old Father Time, turning
pages back and not forward The
faint color was always in her cheeks
these days, and the voice, rising in her
birdlike throat, was fresh as a girls,
lifting like lark's in Powered mead
ows.
And watching her development, the
tired man began to wonder what had
come over him. He saw his work in
new light. The weight of drudgery
slipped from his shoulders. The sense
OF wasted effort yielded to the infec-
tious happiness of his buoyant pupil.
And so dawned Easter morning over
st. Augustin's. Outside the doors the
mob OF sightseers swayed while the
regular parishioners claimed first
right to pews. Then came the thrush
OF strangers, the organist took his
pace, Mr.. Weston raised his hand and
the band of white-robed men and
women filed into the choir loft. Out

SUPREME COURT FLASHES RED
LIGHT


Last week the Ohio Supreme Court
handed down a far reaching decision.
The income of the state treasury is
threatened. The Court held uncon-
stitutional the law providing for col
lection of fees for oil inspection. The
court says that only so much fees
can be collected as needed to pay the
cost of inspection. The present fees
not only pay all salaries and expense
of inspection but has turned an extra
100000 into the State treasury each
year as profit. The oil companies
kicked, brought suit and won. This
decision affects many other branches
of the State government. The Insur-
ance department collects a million
and half dollars. The Hunters Ii
cense law, all feed and fertilizer in
spection, banking departments, extra
tax on saloons, railroads and other
big corporations may come under this
decision. Republican leaders are
panic stricken. They fear this state
of affairs may leave the State treas
ury bankrupt, or they will be COM
PEELED to levy a direct state tax upon
the people. Good lawyers are at
work trying to devise ways and
means to get around the red light
the Supreme Court has flashed upon
them OTTAWA Sentinel.

THE SCARCITY OF FOOD
PROBLEM

! The Austrian government is re-
ported to have ordered all landown-
ers to see that every available inch
of ground is planted with grain.
Should this report be true it will in
dicate that there is some good states
manship in that country. The rem
edy for famine or threatened famine
is to increase the food supply, and to
do this, more food must be raised,
which requires use of land But
land being the private property of
certain individuals, to force it into
use requires action on the part of gov
ernment and this the Austrian Gov
ernment, according to reports, is wise
enough to have taken.
But it should not have required a
war or an arbitrary command by
some one in authority to bring this
land into use. 1t is just as impor-
tant in times of peace as of war that,
so long as a single human want re-
mains unsupplied the natural resour-
ces of the country be used to supply
it. Had this been the governments
policy before the war started, there
would not now have been danger of
scarcity, even if there would have
been war.
1t is just as important in other
countries than those at war that un-
supplied human wants should not CO.
exist with unused natural resources
and inyoluntarily unemployed men,
yet that very situation exists in this
country today. We have the unem-
ployed men, a scarcity of products as
shown in the high cost of living and
unused natural resources.
1t is neither necessary nor desir-
able that this situation be met by an
arbitrary order to landowners to put
their unused lands to some use. A
much better way is to make with
holding of land from use unprofft-
able How to do it? That is be-
coming familiar story. Let the gov
ernment use its taxing power. Get
all public revenue through the Single
Tax method, through taxation only
of the value of land irrespective of
in or on it. Then the
man holding valuable land out of use
will find the tax too burdensome and
put the land to use in order to get
relief Had this been the general
policy in this country there would
not be today a high cost of living
problem or an unemployed problem.
1t is not too late to adopt it now.

made. Both the program and the
leader are lacking.
There has been foolish fear of
executive leadership. If a party has
any policy, the executive is naturally
the chief interpreter. He goes to
the FIRST Office In the state by the will
OF the people. If he leads in putting
their win into law, he is doing what
the great majority OF them expect
him to do. BY voting for him. they
have expressed their confidence In
him. He is the officer of every vot-
ing citizen in the state, while there
Is no legislator who represents any
thing like the number of people.
Moreover, through the veto power,
he is a constitutional factor in the
legislation, If he fails to lead, he Is
neglecting a most important duty,
for he leaves the leadership, either to
some boss whom the people never
approved or he vacates IL entirely,
plunging the whole effort into chaos.
Leadership is, as always, an essen
tial to party success, And there Is
no reason to fear It, 1t may and
should be as pure as the sunshine

LEADERSHIP

The peculiar notion of the last Re-
publican campaign in Ohio that the
governor should give free reign to
the legislature ought by this time to
be pretty nearly dissipated. Embar-
rassed by its insincere fight on what
it was pleased to call bossism and by
the inexperience of most members of
the legislative majority, the party is
now 1oundering in the law-tinkering
morass. There is feeling that the
Republicans must do something to
change conditions as they were when
Governor Cox left office, but there
has not yet appeared any evidence
of a clear-cut idea of what should be
done and how the change should be

TnR sins OF OMISSION

That was a telling speech Govern
or Willis made at the "Father-and
Son" banquet at the Y. M. c, A. on {
recent Saturday night. This para
graph is quoted from it:
Boys, let me tell you this If
you see another boy robblng a
birds nest, or throwing a club
at dog, you 90 right up to that
boy and give him a good poke in
the eye; and II you get into the
peniteneiary for doing 1t, I'll
pardon you"
That's going some as the boys
say, and yet not too far The
importance of the remark is In
the impression it will make, for
the boys should know how mean
and depraved it is to rob birds
nest, throw club at dog, or in
any other way be cruel to our
friends in the animal world. We
are glad the governor came out
as strong as he did The boys
will learn from this that the peo-
pie of Ohio (for the governor
speaks for them) despise a boy
who wrongs a bird or dog,-Ed-
itorial in Ohio State Journal.
We agree with the sentiments ex-
pressed, both those of the editor and
the governor. But we can not see
that he could have digressed from
his subject any more than he did in
saying what he did say, If he had told
us what he would do If a person as
sailed another for putting the cup to
the lips of a boy. The Governor
comes out for the dogs and the birds
and very properly so, too, but he has
MT a thing to say for the boys tempt
ed on every hand by John Barley

The reason for his silence is this:

shows Indifference to their existence,

lips. Votes are at stake. See?-Mendon

New Invention
Enables Anyone to Play
Piano or Organ With

any person or little child to learn to
play the piano or organ in one even
ing. Even though you know abso'
lutely nothing about music or nave
never touched a piano or organ, you
can now learn to play IN an hour or
two. People who do not know one
note from another are able to play
their favorite music, with this method
without any assistance whatever from
anyone.
This new system is called the
Numeral Method. We have secured
the sole agency from the inventor
and as we are desirous of at once
making il known in every locality
we are making the following special
free trial and half-price offer to
everyone.
You are not asked TO send any
money until you have tried and are
satisfied with the new method. We
are willing to send il to you on free
trial, and you will not have to pay
one cent unless you desire to keep II,
There are no express charges to be
paid, as everything will be sent by
mail. Simply write us letter or
postcard saying: please send me the
Numeral Method on free trial" If
you are satisfied after trying it, the
Method and fifty different pieces of
sheet music will cost you only IS,
although the regular price of these
is $40 You should not delay writing,
as we shall not continue this
special half-price offer indefinitely.
