Fellow Workingmen.

You and I and most other men and
women who work do so to make liv-
ing for ourselves and our families.
When we get beyond the earnings
which buy the food, fuel, clothes and
provide a weather proof house, we con-
tinue for the purpose of obtaining a
few comforts and Injuries that will
make life fuller and broader.
We continue to work to accumulate
savings fund in one form or another
to safeguard our possessions and com
fort and to insure ourselves against
calamities in the way Of sickness or ac-
cident which might prevent our daily
work of providing daily necessities and
Injuries for our families and ourselves.
Every worth while husband and father,
furthermore, is spurred on by a desire
to give his children better start in
the work -aday world than he had. It's
great and glorious struggle.
But in the struggle for the great pur-
chasing power that dollars in banks,
stocks, bonds, land, etc., represent, a
man is likely to neglect another great
investment that is not as yet fully APP
preciated, and that is freedom from
preventable disease and reduced LA
bility to premature death And yet
there is no heritage that a parent can
leave his children equal in value to a
sturdy and competent physique. Your
boy and mine will be able to meet ev-
cry ordinary requirement of living pro-
vided he has a sterling physical equip
ment anu a reasonably well trained
mind. Doubtless you'v thought and
said the same thing dozens of times,
but what have you done about it?
Have you ever attempted to organize
the parents of your neighborhood to
demand of the school board, the county
supervisors, and the common council
that sufficient money be appropriated
to buy the health assurance that small
amount of public money will provide
On have you been among the citizens
who are feared by Office holders when
ever they appropriate money to the
health department.. In word, have
you dreamed of health, been Indifferent
about efforts to secure it, or actively
fought for it as you have to for the
money that goes into meat, vegetables,
or that new automobile?
You and I may succeed in making a
fair living on our own individual ener-
gies and abilities. But you and 1 can
succeed in checking the ravages of tu
berculosis, pneumonia, infantile paral
ysis, and many other contagious dis
eases only by cooperation.

More Than He Gould Chew.

The President s handling Of the rail
road strike matter was entirely of a
piece with his usual methods of dealing
with important problems 1t was al
most exactly on all tours with his man
ner of dealing with the Mexican ques-
ton, for example. In Mexico he made
up his mind that Huerta must go and
that he must not even be candidate
for the Mexican presidency. When
Huerta refused to quit, Wilson took the
matter to Congress and tried to unload
the responsibility upon the lawmakers,
who, however, saved the President
from himself by the form in which
they passed the resolution authorizing
military action.
Similarly in the railroad matter.
Mr.. Wilson made up his mind that the
railroads must Immediately grant their
brotherhood employees an eight-hour
day with ten-hour wage scale The
railroads were of another opinion-and
when the President found that he~could
not impose his will upon them and that
the country also was in no mood to
accept his snapshot Judgment in so
important crisis, up he went to Capt.
toll Hill and dumped the problem into
the lap of Congress.
Whether Congress can save the stu
alton, as it die in the Vera Cruz cpl
sode, is problematical. There will be
wide divergence of opinion in both
houses-and the whole problem will be
clouded by the Presidents hasty and
ill-considered action at the outset
The Presidents hasit Of biting off
more than he can chew is very trouble
some for the best interests of the coun-
try; and we wonder that Congress does
not rebel at being compelled to take
over his half-1nasticated cuds.
