LEISURE AS A LUXURY.

There never has been a luxury so much prlz-
ed bv all sorts and conditions OF men as leisure.
In some nations the workers find it possible to
subsist by working a few hours and working
far from strenuously by our standards. 1t Is
difficult to instill a spirit of strenuous work IN
to such peoples; this is due in some instances to
climatic conditions but it is due even more to
the love of leisure which is viewed as more de,
|sirable than material luxuries-luxury being
here used to mean something not absolutely
needed for living In comfort according to the
popular standard of comfort. The Mexican
.peon works three or four hours and is content
for what he gets for this. The worker of higher
type finds himself able to live as he wants by
working a less number of hours than formerly
and he chooses this as a preferred luxury. The
businessman in his full prime of vigor finds he
has enough to give him the life he wants and
'~retires from business. The desire for the lux
ury of leisure is the same In sort though it diff
fers wholly in degree.
There is an argument here as to the right Of
people to choose their luxuries; the person who
meets his obligations is by right free to choose
how he or she orders life if due respect is had
for the rights of others. But it is reasonable to
reflect that the choice of leisure as a luxury
contributes IdI less 10 general prosperity ludt
would the choice of material l~uxuries. A nation
OF hard workers whose money spared from ne
c~essities goes to purchase material commodi
ties and services creates new work and adds to
its capacity for self support and even for new
margins of saving. Leisure's principal creation
Is contentment; it would stand a high value
test, but it does not.
We have been a strenuous people; we have
even been reproached for being over-strenuous
for selling away our leisure and its potential
contentment for material products. a proper
balance undoubtedly is the thing, but an over
leisured people will run into dire danger now.
With the world as it is, leisure is, perhaps, the
luxury that ought to be most carefully consid.
cred.

Now the war risk Insurance bureau is up
against it because it must demand reimburse

check, payments continued beyond the date of
a mans discharge from the service, ETC., accord
ing to a new Interpretation of the Treadway
act. If the slightest attempt had been made
to maintain efficiency in this bureau there
would be no need to worry about being REIN
bursed at this time. One can imagine an up
to-date business house sending two checks for
the same bill in dozens and perhaps hundreds
of cases.

The Red Cross ladies can always
be counted on. They will have not

No cars will be allowed to "park"
on Main street, or from Stephenson
Bek corner to the postoffice. Cars
can traverse these streets, but must
keep moving. This is done in order
to protect the visitors.
