SOMEBODY'S WORSE OFF THAN YOU

When you look around with envy
On the men who've more than you
Do you ever stop to ponder
There's lots their wealth won't dc?
Will it buy a place in heaven?
Will it buy love pure and true?
Could it buy that little baby,
Who is waiting home for you?
When your heart is sad and heavy
And you're feeling bad and blue,
Do you ever stop and think a while,
There's lots worse off than you?
Don't you know there's more behind
You are not the last one in the
race?
Would gladly take your place.
We spend so much time wishing
For things we haven't got
That we can't enjoy the blessings
We have, and know them not.
SO don't look on with envy,
Twill make you sour and old;
You've very many blessings
That can't be bought with gold
Do not think all are happy
Just because they have wealth!
Why! All the money in the world
Can't buy one hour of health!
So il you're we'll, be happy; .
Thank God both day and night
For giving you what wealth cans
buy
A good big appetite.

THE MARCH OF DEMOCRACY.

1t is a wonderful story, the align
ment of the nations which can truly
be called civilized, against the an
cient medievalism which survives in
the heart of Europe. The hope of
mankind, so often frustrated, appar-
emily is now to be accomplished. It
could not be done in Napoleon's
time, in spite of the French revo-
luton, and it's philosophy and it's
promise, because of what Danton
called "The Allied Kings of Europe"
It could not be done in 1870 because
they were still triumphant, but out
Of the west, out of this youngest
and latest and most hopeful of the
nations of the earth; out of this
young giant, fashioned out of all the
peoples, who originate in new phil
osophy, little rivulets of it have gone
over to other peoples in other parts
OF the world.-Secretary Baker.

HITTING THE BULL'S-EYE
BY Rev. Charles StelZle,

You cannot always judge how we'll
a man has aimed, by what he hits.
There's many a fellow who has the
reputation of being winner, who
really hit the bull's-eye by a chance
shot. It isn't always the gun which
makes the loudest report that does the
most business. The chap who shouts
loudest usually says least. For ef-
fective work, a cannon must be one
hundred times heavier than the shot
1t fires. The lightweight" Oh the
job is apt to suffer lrom the recoil-
and it's sure to come. There are
many kinds of guns, but none of them
are self-firing- the kind
that do mischief. It requires good
ammunition, a steady aim, and
definite mark, if man is to make
good. Some men have wasted so much
time getting an aim in life, that
they have forgotten how to pull the
trigger-the games gotten away
while they've been thinking about the
way they'll get ready to begin. There
are times when it pays to fire in bat
talions, but for ordinary purposes, it's
the single, well-aimed shot that counts
A man may not always hit the bulls
eye, but it is safer to keep on trying
than to stake ones reputation upon
good chance shot.

THE NATIONS STORE HO17sE

We are meeting with many Illus
trlous examples of opportunity in the
past, through the force of the neces-
slty OF war. We are told that we
have to conservesfood, that we have
to take very great care of the con-
duct and the attitude which we as
sumo toward one potato. In the Rio
Grande valley Of Texas, to say moth
ing OF the northwest, could be raised
enough food products to feed the
warning nations of Europe. Yet we
DO not take advantage of those great
opportunities. May not this war un-
lock the great storehouses of oppor-
tunlty, and may it not unlock some
tnlng vastly more necessary to the
continued advancement of our land?
May it not unlock the tight minds
OF many people to see that by CO.
operation we all may have plenty.
to see that by proper system of
productivity, we may all be happy
and that pauperism may be swept
away from the earth and the under
standings of our people and the peo-
pie yet to come.-Frank P. Walsh.

GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP NEXT

The United States government is
operating the railroads of the coun-:
try. The first step Of the admins
tration after taking over the roads
was to reduce the salaries of the
overpaid officials. Mr.. McAdoo, the
new director of railroads, promises
that he will adjust all wage con-
troversies at an early date. His
next move will be to reconcile train
schedules at all intersecting points
with the view of giving to the public
the benefit of short haul in every
instance with no waiting.
The people of Duluth Wednesday
evening were told how the railroads
had cunningly devised train schedules
to favor other cities in Minnesota
at the expense of Duluth and Su-
perior. We are told in The Labor
World this week that the railroad
companies failed to properly supply
the coal mines with cars and as a
result thousands of miners we're ir-
regularly employed while the indus
tries Of our country and the people
of the northern climate were obliged
to economic because of coal short
age. Railroad equipment and road
beds are in hay wire condition. The
over financed and watered stock
companies strained every recource to
pay dividends on their excessive cap
italization, with the result that wear
| and tear, maintenance and prepara-
tions for future business were neg
lected.
When the'wa broke out and the
nation looked to the railroads to
carry the products of farm, mine and
factory with prompt despatch they
completely fell down. Their whole
fabric gave way, and railroad Of
ficials were reluctantly forced to
throw up their hands and give up
their administration as a bad job.
President Wilson saw the situation
at a glance and he lost no time in
doing his duty under the law, to the
country and to the people. The gov
eminent will spend millions of dollars
to put the railroads in proper operat-
ing condition. The stockholders for
a time will get reasonable return
on their investment, but the days Of
the private ownership of transporta-
ton lines in the United States are
about over. There will be no turn
! ing back. The value of railroad
properties will be determined, the
stockholders will get some of their
money back, but the people propose
to own as well as operate the rail-
roads henceforth.
Put that in your pipe and snuff
it up.

TAX EXCESS PROFITS!

The Public: Secretary McAdoo
sends to congress the amazing recon-
mendation that further taxation meas
ures be avoided at the session Of
congress now beginning and that all
of the huge sum required for carrying
on the war next year be raised by ad-
ditional bond issues. It is we'll to
have responsibility definitely fixed for
method Of war financing that is
adversely affecting the spirit of the
people to a greater extent than all
other adverse factors combined. The
Department of Labor has just COM
pleted an industrial. survey Of New
York state, and announces its find
ing that a chief cause Of industrial
unrest throughout the state is labor's
feeling that the large employing cor
porations are making huge profits
from the war. This is not merely
labor's feeling-it is the fact. During
the past year the number Of million
aires in America increased from A.
571 to 22,696. During the same year
one private fortune reached and
passed the billion-dollar mark. There
are in. the United States 1898 persons
with fortunes ranging from $780,
600 to s1,o00,0o0,oo0, according to
the estimates Of the treasury depart
ment.
Perhaps Mr.. McAdoo fears that the
big business community will commit
sabotage, bring on a panic, paralyze
the nations industrial processes, If
congress ignores it's (and his) demand
that the tax rate on excess war pro-
fits be left at the present maximum
of 81 per cent, with a sliding scale
downward, instead of being increased
to the 80 per cent that England takes
It is fear that reflects on the energy
and courage of Attorney General
Gregory, who has set his face like
flint against sabotage as practiced by
the I. w. w. Seriously, it makes toe
light of the enthusiasm and devotion
of the American people, and Of the
power of Mr.. McAdoo's chief, the
president. to mobilize public opin.
ion against any group who might dare
to withhold capital, machinery or
natural resources from the fullest
possible usefulness in the promotion
of the national enterprise. And back
of these agencies is the power to

A TEST VOTE ON JAN. 10.

The woman suffrage amendment is
slated to be voted on in congress
Jan. 10. The discussion and the vote
will give us good idea of how con-
gress views things at the start of
the new year.
Many good Americans have been
exercised because of the late picket
ing" of the President by small body
OF women. However, this is a. dead
issue now-and one not likely to
come to life again.
In the meantime, the question of
the vote is vital o::e to millions
OF women all over the United States.
1t is this larger phase of the situa-
ton that congress must consider, and
without any small personal pique on
account of the recent "unpleasant-
nesses" at Washington. It is to the
women, and to the men, of his own
district, be it in Maine or in Cali
fornia, that each and every congress-
man is responsible.
The question of the federal amend
ment is one for congress to settle,
Doubtless many congressman are
now taking counsel on the subject.
How will they start the new year
VIII they start it fearlessly and un-
equivocally by voting for the amend
ment, once and for all? Or will thew
bubble over it for days on end, and
then wind up by doing nothing?
The only answer that can be given
so far is that it will all depend up-
on the size and breadth of the
average congressman's mind. But
in these days of big things, and of
doing big things in big way, we
expect to find large majority of
our members of congress voting

WHY CLOTHES ARE HIGH

Here is story that will give clue
to one of the causes of present high
prices:
One dealer sold consignment of
wool at 81 cents pound, and it was
resold several times, each dealer
making 10 cents pound profit.
In the course. of time, the merchant
first referred to heard that a GER
tain firm had an allotment Of wool
for sale, and asked the price.
On being told that the present
owners had purchased at 81 pound,
and were willing to sell at 1925, the
inquirer said,
"All right, I'll take it and send you
a check. Where is the wool?"
The answer came:s ION the third
floor of you own storage, warehouse,
where it has been ever since you sold
it originally." -...'

DUTIES OF THE WORKERS.

The Springfield Laborer: Wage
earners must, in time of war, keep
one eye on the foreign enemy that
threatens the destruction of govern
mental institutions, and safeguard the
principles of democracy and the
human welfare, but it is of equal, if
not of greater importance to keep the
other, the best discerning eye on the
domestic enemy-the exploiters at
home. TO accomplish this requires a
potential organization to guard the
ideals Of democracy, industrial as we'll
as political-the organized labor
movement, which is ever alert, in time
of war and in time of peace against
the insidious groups Of enemies with
in, who strive to throttle-to disrupt
the labor movement. The present war
demonstrates that to maintain politi-
cal democracy depends on the in
auguration of absolute industrial
democracy because it requires the CO.
operation of the masses of the peo-
pie and not the privileged class-the
special interest class.
In this solemn period of the life of
the nation is in peril it demands
that the workers be ever vigilant to
thwart the sinister designs of the foes
within and without.
