HEARD AND SEEN
This happened last Friday.
BY EARL GOODWIN.

This happened last Friday.
A friend asked me to lend an au-
tomobile TO Walter Reed, and | did.
The chauffeur in this instance hap
pened to be a lady from whose fam
lily nearly every man volunteered for
army service. One who did not VOL
unteer was already in the service
and was decorated for gallantry un-
der fire. Another enlisted and left
the army a captain in the aviation
corps. Another commanded a bat
terry against the worst the Germans
had, and so on.
So she knows something about SOL
diers.
AS she left Walter Reed grounds
about ten minutes of five last Fri
day, she saw several soldiers wait
ing for cars.
I'VE can take some of those boys
in with u.s." she said.
And at that a sprightly captain
hoped forward:
did you say you wanted to take
me downtown" he said.
The young woman answered very
firmly:
II said wanted to take some SOL
diers downtown, but ] would rather
help some of these wounded men,"
Well, that captain got as mad as
fury, but the woman who KNOWS
about soldiers turned down the Off
cer-not because he was an officer,
but because therewere wounded and
convalescent soldiers to be helped.
That officer may make il hard
for you" she said to one of the boys.
Eyes," he answered. He is in
command of us, and he may get sore
because he certainly looked mad"
When that officer remembers that
Pershing himself wouldn't take a
seat from a wounded soldier he win
no longer be childish and mad; and
If anything happens to the soldiers
they can report it to the proper per-
sons-or right here.
There is nothing so fine as an
American soldier; nothing better
than man tn the service of the
Stars aud Stripes-oficer or enlisted
mdn-but the FEW snobbish officers
1oho ride on the backs of their men
are the curse Of the American
forces.

There are some lines of trade with

Millions who find their comfort in faith believe that

always done to explain the universe with their feeble
reason, divided all things into EARTH, AIR and WATER

largely of the ingredients Oxygen and hydrogen

guided in working THREE:
LIGHT, HEAT ELECTRICITY
We call them three yet they interchangeable three
different manifestations of the same thing FORCE which
do not understand
With heat you make light and electricity; with
electricity you produce light We only know
that it is possible. We do not know why

Being a friend OF the American

the bowling team I certainly think
that they should have q right-up In

have rolled twelve games and as yet
no team has rolled well enough TO

set Of 374 including a game OF -l42,
so after looking at this score you
ought TO be willing TO help this team

will take this into consideration at

ORGANIZED LABOR INTERESTED.

When commercial enterprises were
small there was little need Of organized
labor, the individual could take care Of
himself Businesses were infantile tn
size and very numerous while competi-
ton among them was general. When
II was perceived that greater economy
could be realized by reducing She num-
Der OF competitors. although retaining
competition il became apparent that in
dividuals would have TO organize in or
der to safeguard their own interests
In these days Of international com
petition great industrial and mercantile
corporations are necessary. Economic
forces them into existence Finally
conditions result in the formation OF
associations of groups Of industries.
This has become a land of gigantic cor
porations and many and great associs-
ton. Finance commerce and INDUSTRY
have organized. each having associa-
tion.
Social and economic necessity prac-
ticalIy obligated the organization Of
labor The individual was too small
and weak to take care Of himself. Labor
had TO organize in order to ourtsil the
power of business organizations and te
protect the individual and advance his
interests. II is probable that no en-
Iightened citizen would deny the neces-
sity or value Of organized labor. We
might go still further and say that or
ganized labor not only has aided its
members and improved living and work
ing conditions, but II has bettered the
relationship with corporations and had
beneficial influence on society as
whole. In principle. organized labor
has been a decided national benefit, and.
we'll directed. 1t should be q greater
benefit.
Corporations make mistakes and SO
do leaders in organized labor and for
this reason no organization can expect
approval gil the time. In fact. when
either side is wrong. both are helped by
just criticism and 50 is the public. The
aim Of all organizations. and this ap-
plies likewise to their individual mem
bers. should be TO live up to the prin
ciples Of economies. the ethic Of society
and the justice of democracy.

THE TWO GEORGES

Our first and last Presidents had to do
with the Georges With the first Presi-
dent, the immortal Washington, the last
President, the autocratic Wilson and his
administration of European proclivities,
apparently have no use. In the mammoth
auditorium at Chicago Wednesday night
Senator Borah said: at took George
Washington seven years to gain the indie
pendence from George III that they now
want to give back to George "" From
the pandemonium that broke loose, and
the heights to which the great audience
arose in their approval of the addresses
of the Idaho Senator and that of Senator
johnson of California, it looks as though
the American people still have use for
George Washington and as for the two
Georges they will keep them both where
they belong. -

FLOUNDERING

In his simple, plain, gentlemanly treat
ment of the league of nations Major Reu-
ben Clark seems to have thoroughly rout-
ed his opponents so that to define their
position in a single word it may be said
they are Laundering.
For lack of argument Lieutenant B. H.
Roberts stoops to slnrs and SANDER, and
following in the same wake that little
weakling The Journal resorts to funny
stories. In labored effort of two hours,
the gallant lieutenant "who fought the
battle of Bordeaux" tore his hair and
paved the air bringing forth nothing but
villification, while in nearly one double
column of words The Journal records
nothing but stale stories. Both are found
dering in the sea Of error, egotism and
European intrigues that is becoming so
deep it will engulf them. "Help me Cas-
sius or sink" is next in order.
