HARRINGTON ON ISMS.

The managing editor of The Nigi-
lantes asked Booth Harrington to
address a few words to young men
who are going abroad in the service
OF the United States, warning them
against the preachers OF Socialism,
bolsheyikism and other freak -isms,
who are ranting up and down Eu-
rope at present. The rebels against
social order in France and Italy are
missionaries OF their various cults
and gifted with all the eloquence OF
the Latin races. 1t was thought
that their ready oratory might i'm
press some OF our boys fresh from
the farms and the country districts
and not accustomed to meeting such
experts in mental agility and twisted
logic. Mr.. Tarkington's reply, while
not what was anticipated, very likely
accomplishes the purpose the editor
had in mind. lie wrote
81 would gladly write what you
suggest-a warning to Americans
going abroad not to be impressed
with preachings OF bolsheyism, etc.

thing to say. find myself a total

KELLEY THOUGHT
HIS TIME HAD COME
Taken Home to Die, Health Is Re
stored By Tanlac and He
Gains 20 Pounds.

Robert r. Kelley, well known
former alderman and for three years
in charge of the county farm OF
Falls county, Texas, told an inter
csting story the other day about
the recent recovery OF his health
through the use OF Tanlac. Mr..
Kelley lives at 1909 North Com
merce street, Fort Worth, Texas,
and in relating his experience said;
Eleven years ago was a strong
and healthy man and weighed a
hundred and fifty-SiX pounds. Some
thing went wrong and | lost my
appetite and fell oil till was al
most skin and bones. My nerves
were shattered and my whole body
was racked with pain so that /
could hardly get a nights sleep and
! became so weak that / took to
my bed and lay flat of my back for
several months. ! tried Ml kinds
OF medicines and treatments but
kept getting worse and finally went
to a hospital to see ii that would
help me, but they could hold out no
hopes for me and ! was taken home
to die. Even my best friends gave
me up and | thought my time had

about one-third of their average for
recent months, At the same time It
is announced that our transfer OF
American troops TO France is pro-

before.
The two facts may not have any
thing to do with each other. 1t may
even be true that the leSsened de.

to a mobilization OF German subma-

University life Is much the same as
In the United States, with sake parties
and other indulgences. But the big
distinction IS that in Japan the boys
who really count do not participate
In these activities Of student life
They see Japan at the height Of a
process Of Transformation that means
at once new perplexities abroad and
new adjustments at home.
Internationally, to the land problem
has been added the trade problem.
Japan's products must have access TO
the markets Of the world. and II need
be her military strength must protect
her trade in the seven seas and on their
shores.
Internally an industrial oligarchy is
replacing the old bureaucracy, and, with
this as a starting point, into the shell
OF monarchy, the new structure OF de-
mocracy must be fltted.
What Is the reaction Of young Japan
TO these national necessities?
Many young men-far more than in
America-are attracted by a military
career. Many who enter IL wish TO
leave it. There is no freedom there.
And the pay Of an army lieutenant IS
SIS a month.
Naturally in a country OF so few uni

ment service calls large percentage Of
those graduates. But it is interesting
10 note that while, roughly, one-hsli
OF all the graduates Of Tokyo lmper-
ial University during the entire history
OF the school have entered the govern
ment service-as executive. judicial or
school officials or IN similar capacity,
only one-fourth OF last years gradual

times as many graduates as formerly
are going into the service OF private
business institutions.

commercial expansion. They envy them.
The students Of today emulate them.
Consequently there is rapidly being
built up a young Japan not tied to

economically bound by their govern

these fall In Japan upon soil not exactly
fertile but still receptive.
The "eider statesmen" are passing,
and the real power in Japan today is
in the hands Of her business kings.
The most progressive Of young Japan

No throne in the world Is so safe.
There are several reasons-among
