A TROUBLESOME INCOME.

Mary Pickford is all worried about her enor-
NOUS income. She went to Washington to have
her income tax return adjusted. She felt that her
attempts to figure it for herself were contribut-
ing greatly to the paper shortage and she wasn't
getting anywhere with her computations anyhow.
One of the things most people have to be
thankful for is that their incomes put them to no
such distress
Also, it might be we'll to make note of these
facts and produce them twenty years from now.

THE BRITISH-JAP TREATY.

Other nations taking the Senate rejection
OF the peace treaty rather seriously Some of the
results are admittedly unfortunate, but there are
some unexpected benefits. Great Britain, for in
stance, is so impressed with American criticism of
the Shantung arrangement that the British govern
ment proposes to take up the matter with Japan
directly and ask concessions in Japanese policy
along lines desired by the United States
The British government is in position to do
this because it the British Japanese treaty that
made most of the trouble. That treaty comes up
tor renewal next July, and it can then be changed
IN such way to satisfy this country and smooth
the way to the restoration of Shantung to China
Needless to say any step in this direction
would facilitate the ratification of the peace treaty
and improve Japanese-American relations.

WATCH THEM.

HAVING had thorough whipping on the field
of death and gore, we may see the Germans
skipping back to useful task and ch"re. I1av-
ing dumped the old ambitions, having scrapped
the Wilhelm dream, they get down to new CON
ditions and in trade they be supreme. While
other nations yap around and paw the air, back
to old time occupations go the Germans every
where. With a single earnest purpose they go
back to forge and loom, while our foaming
windsmiths chirps us songs Of anarchy and
doom. If we do not quit our yipping, making
smoke and fur ascend, Germany, that got the
whipping, will be winner in the end For she's
heating up her boilers and she's speeding up her
mills, and her brawny, husky toilers go to work
with loyal wills While we rant around and
clamor of our rights and of our wrongs Ger
many takes up the hammer and sounds forth
the work time gongs. Watch the Germans, see
them germing in their old efficient way, while
we're squeaking squabbling, squrming for big
advance in pay.
