WITH THE EDITORS
ROOM FOR SOUND RADICALISM

ROOM FOR SOUND RADICALISM
They are now talking at Washington of ap-
propriating thirty billion dollars for the coming
sum yearly on our public schools.
Early in the war England began reconsider
ing the whole subject Of public education. The
British labor party took an active and lnf1uen-
tial part in the reconsideration. Thanks partly
to it's leadership, decidedly broader and better
scheme of public education is now being formu-
lated before parliament.
Aside from the war itself, no other question
is 80 important as this. About half our popula-
ton of school age is in average daily attendance
at institutions of public instruction through a
school year that averages only one hundred and
ffty-nine days; and great many of those insti-
tutions are ill-ftted for their task, with under
paid teachers. That is our record.
We spend twice as much for automobiles as
for public instruction, just because we care twice
as much for them. But we should not. After this
war the old plea that no more money is available
will sound so silly that nobody will have the hard-
hood to repeat it.
There is a golden opportunity for genuine rad
calism, for sound labor politics. Any political or
ganization with the vision and integrity to make
a revolution in public education the leading plank
in it's platform will be entitled to the most re-
spectfu consideration There is room and well
come for all the radicalism whose intellectual spe-
cifc gravity is sufficient to keep it's feet on the
ground Saturday Evening Post

GO A.FISHIN'

When you get up in the wee sma' hours OF
the early morn and make for river or lake where
you sit for hours watching for nibbles and hoping
for bites, you do more than catch fish, and you
gain if you catch no fish at all.
/ You develop your strain of patience,
which in modern man is subnormal.
2. You give your lungs feast Of fresh air.
a thing lungs never get too much Of
3. You concentrate, even though it be up
on the waters ripple or the bobbing OF the cork.
It is good for the mind TO exclude all other
thoughts but one and concentrate upon that
d. Your brain gets a rest; business wor-
ries. household cares and other concerns are
swept away for the time.
5. You witness the most wonderful picture
ever painted--the coming of day with its glori-
GUS sunrise.
6. The power of imagination is increased.
Listen to any fshermans story when ne returns.
AND-theres always the possibility of help
ing Hoover by landing mess Of fish for dinner

SAVE EVERY CENT

Next year living expenses will be higher.
Taxes will be much greater. The income tax,
which now touches hundreds of thousands of fam
ilies will probably be doubled There will be new
and enormous bond issues. New calls for funds
will be made by the Red Cross, the Y. M. c. A.,
the Knights of Columbus, the Salvation Army,
and other war activities Local charities, the vital
forms of social work, must be kept up.
How shall the individual American meet his
share of these mounting demands on his unelastic
pocketbook? Id R
There is only one way Each Of us must save
every possible cent Summer is coming, with it's
opportunities for easy and pleasant vacation
spending We must cut every unnecessary cent
out of our vacation expenses. We must deny our
selves luxuries economic even in what we have
come to think necessities. Where we have been
wastefu we must be thrifty.
/ We must insist that congress tax to the limit
the horde of profiteers who have piled up great
fortunes out of the war; We must demand tax
legislation that will shear profits close to the
skin. But that will not solve our Individual prob
lem.
There is hardly man or woman in America
who cannot retrench in some way. The lndlVldual
savings may run only into dimes and quarters.
Multiply it by 100000,000 and one begins to get
the collective effect.
For the sake of our self-respect, for the sake
of our freedom, for the sake of our soldiers and
sailors fighting by land and sea, we, who stay
safely at home, must save every possible cent
The will to win, the will to defeat the Hun,
must first of all conquer the spirit Of self-indul-
gence and extravagance.-Chic Tribune.
