"it is commonplace Of the theatsr
that the public want. above all thinKs,
70 be entertained. But that Il very
far from saying that they want 10 be
amused. Humor Is by no means the
easiest way to reach the human heart.
There are those who will tell You
that the public would far rather laugh

can just tell them to tell Il 10

rather cry than laugh any day. Where
In Il Is not a bit different from the

simple: II you can make anybody CRY.
You make them forget themselves.
The minute you make them forget
themselves they are being entertained.
II you can set them to thinking about
your blues instead OF their own, they
are taken completely out OF them

GERMANS ATTACK

HOW MANY ARE TRULY HAPPY
Eminent New York Physician Places
the humbsr AZ About One
In Hundred.

The other night we chanced 10 ask
m eminent physician OF New York
city his opinion as 10 the number Of
people who were truly happy. His
rather dogmatic reply was:
About one In a hundred"
And this was not the oplnibn OF a
pesSimlst, but OF most radical op-
tlmlst.
We wonder n this opinion ls shared
BY others. II does not mean. ~
course. that ninety.nlne people out of
hundred are deeply unhappy. That
would be absurd. But there Il no
doubt that great many people are
quite unhappy good deal OF the time.
perhaps NOT half the time. but enough
rather 10 cloud their lives.
We should IKE to know the opinion
of physicians generally. More and
more people 20 10 the doctors 60 tell
them their troubles. The physician
Of today takes the place OF the con-
fessional Of yesterday.
Then. too. there Is the new applica-
tion OF psychology to the field OF medi-
clne--the so-called psychO-analysls.
which Is 80 rapidly taking It's place as
an important part. literally. OF the
medical pharmaccpoeia. This new sci
ence has given wonderful insight
Into our sub-conseious selves and re-
yeals how fnr that sub-consclous self
really dominates our lives and deter
mines the amount OF happiness which
We really get out Of this confused
welter OF existence.

II is surprising. when we think Of

tower which william the Couqueror

many Of London's most prominent

all the banks and great piles Of COM

although the thoroughfares In which
they stand are very old.
A hundred years ago there was no
High Holborn, no Shaftesbury avenue,

II is mighty imperative at this time

FIXING PRICES.

Three sheep men were discussing
hay prices on the streets OF Ontario
one day this week and all agreed on
Just what the price should be. rhoy
were emphatic In their assertions aud
this was one of the reasons they
cited;
THE government has put a price
on wool, aud we have TO wait for the
money. We cannot winter our sheep
for the price OF wool especially when
we have 70 pay present wages and
present feed bills. II the government
is to put a price on our wool. why
does II not put price on the ranch
ers' hay2"
The next day the writer was pres
ent when two ranchers were discuss
ing the price OF hay. Their converse
tion was something like this;
I'VE have not sold our hay yet for
we are waiting until the price is es.
tRblished.
I'VE do not feel that one rancher
should get three or four dollars more
per ton for his hay than another. nor
do we believe that the sheep man or
the eattleman should be held up for
more than he can afford TO pay.
There ought to be some way of arriy-
ing at fair figure"
Now these may have been excep-
tional farmers to take so advanced
and fair minded position, bu, never
the less such ranchers do exist.
Likewise there are sheep and cat
tie men who are equally fair minded
so that IL should be possible for these
two great industries In this section
TO come 10 frir understanding Toe
sooner this Is done the better. for al
concerned Each industry will be IN
a position TO make plans for the fu-
ture The hay rancher will know
how much development he can under
take this fall and winter. and the
sheep man can arrange his business
with an accurate knowledge OF what
Il is going TO cost him TO winter his
flocks In this seceion.

for American INDICTMENT

for American Judgment.
Evidently Germany believed that
all that was necessary to obtain the
right kind of American opinion was
to buy IT, They must have believed
that the American sense of honor and
Justice was dead. They reduced us
as a people. to the German material
istic level and proceeded accordingly.
The remarkable thing about II all IN
the fact that there were evidently
enough Americans OF German lean
ings TO make their campaign possi-
Bile.
The recent regulations of the de-
partment OF Justice showing how the
New York Mail was purchased with
German money by Dr. Edward A.
Iiumeley, and the more recent state
ment that far western newspaper
was similarly purchased, gave the lie
to the statement often made prior 10
our entry into the war by pro-Ger-
mans. that Germany was not trying
to influence public opinion by such
methods.
While free speech and free press
are the corner stones OF democracy.
there should be some method devised
10 assure their freedom aud protect
the public from repetition OF jusi
such tactics. In the long run. of
course, controlled publications dose
their prestige and are powerless To 90
great harm. The public II not Ioar

that day n past, The influence OF |
such publications soon faded after
the public knew. or thot II knew who
owned them.
So has II proven In tho case OF the
German controlled papers aud maga-
zlnes, for without a doubt the New
York Mail was but one OF many 30
purchased and controlled.
Yet these publications did not keep
us out OF the war. The very fact that
the American people have learned
that their opinions we're 30 little thot

act against the Kaiser and his crew.
