An Old Secret Rediscovered

Charles M. Schwab has long had a
reputation as an executive, a builder, a
doer. Now he appears in the role Of
philosopher.
1--WE have entered upon social era, y
he says, "in which the aristocracy Of the
future will be men who have done
something for humanity and their ma
tions. There has never been a time in
my life that l had the sense of posses
sion or that my riches brought me any
happiness. 1t is the doing of something
useful that has made me happy"
While there is nothing particularly
new in Mr.. Schwab's doctrine of social
service, its statement by him is inter
esting. Mr. Schwab acquired his learn
ing in the University Of Hard Knocks. He
discovered the secret of happiness in
the same school. No one has a copy
right on it. 1t is open and free to all,
rich or poor. Many are happy through
finding it.

canism is not diluted by any imported,

This is quite as it should be- We like
our East and are proud Of it. But it is

Street and Fifth Avenue and spend

and much of it west of the Mississippi
they would not misunderstood us as
much as they do. They might even then
comprehend New York, which, despite
surface appearances, is much nearer to
Kansas City than it is to Paris-or even
Kiev
1t is genuine understanding between
nations that should be gained from
such transfusions as this very interest
ing educational venture. And under
standing can come only from gripping

Aping the Big Buccaneer

The Turkish government has just
satisfied one of it's great ambitions.
The Turks have been extremely anxious
to demonstrate that they are just as
free to go ahead despoiling Russia, be-
yond the stipulations of the Brest-
Litovsk treaty, as the Germans are.
Turkish troops have just taken Baku,
on the Caspian Sea, to save which i'm
portant oil centre Great Britain recently
sent small expedition from Mesopo-
tamia through Western Persia.
BY seizing Baku the Ottoman govern
ment has violated the conditions Of the
Brest-Ltovsll compact. But Germany
had already violated them on large
scale by appropriating the eastern
parts of Livonia and Esthonia, the
Crmea and most of the northern coast
Of the Black Sea. Berlin was strongly
averse to having the Turks engage in
afterth0ught spoliations. The German
government has frowned severely on
Moslcm land piracy in Transcaucasia,
and IN supplementary treaty with its
Bolshevist stool pigeons in Moscow it
expressly promised not to countcnance
any further sniping at Russian terri
tory
At Brcst-Litovsk Turkey received the
three Transcaucasian districts of Kars,
Batum and Erivan. But when the Ru-
manian treaty was concluded and all the
spoils taken from Rumania were either
appropriated b., Germany or assigned
prospectivcly to Bulgaria, the Turks
suddenly realized that they were getting
only poor relatives portion. They
have been clamorng ever since for COM
pensatons in the Balkans and in the
Crimea. And having little confidence
left in Germanys benevolent Intentions
they decided to extend their Transcau-
casian holdings all the way across to the
shore of the Caspian. In this remote
region Germany could not stop them,
either by arms or by diplomacy.
Germany abhors stealing on the part
of her petty allies. They must sec her
first. She must put her O. X. on the
stolen goods. Naturally, the ounsophsti-
tutelage In his day he has been as big
a despoiler as Germany. If the German
can seize Sebastopol, why can't he seize
Baku? Are such happy afterthoughts
in the way of war map revision to be
monopolizcd by Berlin?
But, after all, the announcement Of
the capture of Baku was neatly timed.
1t would have been cxccrable stage man
agement it it had been made last Sun
day or Monday, when the oily Baron
Burian was proclaiming to the world

War on the Sneezers and Coughers

The people of this city are to be con-
graduated on the energetic action taken
by Health Commissioner DR.. ROYAL S.
Copeland toward combating the prevail
ing epidemic of influenza. He has called
in conference the "movie" picture men,
theatre owners, transportation officials
and the like to plan out a campaign of
placards and advertising of every sort to
warn the public against the dangers of
sneezing and coughing in public places.
DR.. Copeland hopes to give the widest
possible publicity to the fact that, so far
as now known, influenza is spread almost
entirely through these two anti-social
acts. One person suffering from this
epidemic can spread it to whole car
full or among considerable group at a
