The Persians of the time Of Cyrus
were Zoroastrlans. The Persian relig-
Ion was prlmitlyely monOthelstic, and
they allowed no idols or other mate
rial symbols of deity in their tenn
Piles. There was less enmity on the
part Of the Jews against the Persians
than against the other great nations
with whom they came In contact, due
probably to the mOnothelsm which
characterized the Persian religion. So
Cyrus, whatever else may be said of
him, was certainly not an idolator.-

THE UNPOPULAR
EIGHT-HOUR DAY

time" in some circumstances and
and punitive" or "time and a
half" overtime in other circum-
stances.
That eight hours for werk and
eight for sleep and eight for
play is beneficial to the physical
man is agreed generally, but
very few men, comparatively
speaking, want to work no more
than eight hours a day. Any
number of men will clamor for
or legislate for an eight.hour day
for themselves or for some other
class with whom they have little
in common. But few earnest
workers want to stop short when
eight hours have elapsed and go
forth to play eight hours before
leeping that length of time.
Play, as a rule, is not free of
cost. Unless a man is pretty we'll
off he is saving in two ways-in
his own calculations-when he is
at work. He is saving what he
would spend if he were not at
work, and he is saving what he
would not earn if he were play.
ing. So the average industrious
man who has a job at which he
works only eight hours finds
something to do con the outside"
and turns an honest dollar in
that way.
The elght-hour day is a popu.
lar ideal, bnt an unwanted real
ity. The normal human being
knows we'll enough that play
often is harder upon the con.
stitution than work. He knows
that when he plays he often sits
up too late playiug-not only
poker but also playing at dane
ing with idle young girls who
may sleep when he is work, or
playing with his favorite auth.
ors, or in other ways stealing
from his sleep time a little more
play than he ought to have, but
his work rarely eXhausts him.
That is, it does not if he makes
a liberal allowance of time for
sleep, And as he gains exper-
fence of life, and learns the
many excellent uses to which
every extra dollar can be put; as
he grows middle-aged and sees
how well those fare who have
worked overtime rather than
played overtime, he loses the
enthusiasm for short hours which
has caused him, perchance, to-
express himself vigorously in be-
half of the right of mankind not
to work more than one-third of
the time.
The world is full of persons
who look about-and many of
Them succeed in their search
for something extra tdaV will re-
turn a profit. Rich mn who
are we'll burdened with business
take on other responsibilities.
Poor men whose salaries are in

quirements or the requirements

LABOR MEN FIGHT

of Propaganda.

Boston. Oct. 31.-The working men OF

their sol from boy scout organizations

branch American Federation Of Labor.

report that Charles c. Jackson, presi-
dent Of the greater Boston council boy
scouts, had advised scout masters to
prepare the boys under them to with
stand politically the aggressiveness Of
labor unions" which he Is said to have
predicted would be Savage and bitter"
after the war.
IF this Is to be the attitude of the
boy scout movement" the resolution
said, 1T Is time that the wage earners
Of the country should take their sons
out Of that movement for the reason
that boys and young men should be
educated on liberal lines and not ON
narrow ones"

NORWEGIAN PRESS
GROWING BITTER
Continued German Submarine
Raids on Commerce StirS
Wrath-Propagand-
lists at Work.

C~hristiania. Oct. 31.-Never before
during b war has the Norwegian press
so unanimously expressed the resent
ment aroused in Norway by the last
steps in the German submarine cam
palgn. The Orebladet, calls 1t piracy
and says it Is the general opinion that
German war against merchantile ships
Is directed especially against Norway,
adding:
1T is a fact that this continued tor
pedoing of Norwegian ships deprives
Germany Of friends in Norway"
The Tidens Tegn, says bitterness mas
been provoked everywhere in Norway
by the destroying of Norwegian prop
erty and lives Of Norwegian sailors in
the Arctic ocean I'M vehemently urges
n government to do something to pro-
tect property and lives.
The Verdens Gang asserts Germany
has substituted for international law
and old, recognized ethical principles
h principle Of power as the basis Of
its warfare, recognizing no other stand
ard or morals thar what its own inter-
csts dictate. Other papers a the Ger
man governments secret agents who
report the sailing Of Norwegian ships
are tolerated everywhere and treated
in a friendly manner, while such agents
have been expelled from Holland and
that when Norwegian press correspon-
dents attempt to keep such officers and
such ship owners posted as to where
German submarines are lying in wait
off the coast the censorship suppresses
their kilograms lest they might be Of
use to enemies of Germany.
The Shipping and Mercantile Gazette
says that just before the new subma-
rine warfare was ~inaugurated, agents
Of the German government appeared
in Its editorial office and threatened
the paper n the country because of
alleged ~unfriendly feelings towards
Germany. Representatives in Norway
Of German newspapers sent to Ger
many an interview with a prominent"
Norwegian diplomat who is quoted as
having admitted that Germany is right
in its conduct of submarine warfare
against Norwegian ships. The inter-
view was anonymous and Is being de-
nounced by the entire Norwegian press
as fictitious.
Public sentiment in Norway at pres
emit is greatly excited n the popular
feeling toward Germany Is far from
friendly. Ship have decided not
to permit their vessels to sail to Rus
sian ports in the Arctic and the war
insurance company will take no risks
on ships or cargoes with such destina-
lion. The A~ftenposten says Norway
does not so much fear German subma-
rine warfare near the American coast
as 1t must be supposed the United
States Is better prenared han are the
small neutral nations to prevent whole
sale torpedoing Of neutral ships.
The German submarine warfare thus
far has cost Norway I'll ships with
a total tonnage Of 235 600 and the lives
Of 140 Norwegian sailors.
