ticS-@it may be doubted whether we
are quite as great as we think we are.
In considering how we exercise our
Judgment, we should remember the
extent to which we have devoted our
selves to the education of the young
and the large sums we have spent at
all times for public schools and for
colleges. When we look back and see
the mistakes we have made, 1t would
almost appear as If we had failed to
apply much that had been taught us in
school and college, or that perhaps the
school and college had not taught us
how to solve great political measures.
Then, again, the thought comes to us
OF whether 0 not we have not had

Corporation Wrongs.
We all remember the outcry against
vested interests. Of the capitalists.
There have been great wrongs done
by many corporations-some Of their
franchises have been obtained by cor
ruption and theft and great Injuries
have often been done to the rights OF
the people; and SO, when we found
times hard and things going wrong,
we have vented t anger upon cor
porations and upon the capitalists who
controlled Them. In many cases we
allowed ourselves to become angry
withsa class or with certuinl individ-
uals and expended cur strength on
ourtemper, rather than upon a study
Of the cure OF the conditions about
which we complained; and In many
Instances we punished corporations

ARE YOU SAVING?

The old Scotch quotation should
often come to mind these days: "Many
a mickle makes a muckle." Eve must
not be penny wise and pound foolish, !"
for we should have recreation, play
times, and vacations; our health and
mentality as well as good looks re-
quire it; but we need to spend as a
nation s45o, 100000 year for the
movies?
Let us go to fewer moving picture
shows and buy Thrift Stamps instead.
Do We need as an American nation,
to spend $50, 1000 900 yearly for gum,
and 5000 900 600 for candy, $500, 900. :
900 for tobacco and 1000. 600 900 for
liquor7 Think of spending go cents
per capita for liquor and only six cents
for milk, the food that will keep our
babies alive, who are dying by the
thousands each year from lack Of
proper care.
