OUR YOUNGER SET
Carrie

A few of the more fippant ones call
her "the chorus girl" but she's undoubted-
ly one of our leaders. Even the war,
which kept her from returning to COL
iege, failed to shake her position So
you see that she does belong
There are those who say she is not
clever, but merely sassy Still she is
daring and she is audacious, all of which
naturally counts. Only last summer she
told the girls that Harold said he was
afraid of her. She's engaged to him now
but it isn't out yet-though there was
time when we thought it was "all off,
You see, Harold took Stella to the "Pi-
'ou' one night last summer and Of course,
that had its effect on Carrie. 1t hap
pened that "Bunty" was giving tea the
next day, and when Carrie appeared-late,
Of course-she was dressed in deep mourn
ing, and very solemn. She told the girls
then that she'd had long talk with Har-
Old. "long, serious talk" They had de-
cided that they could only be good pals"
70 one another, and that though their al
lection would be undying it would be only
brotherly and sisterly. But it was Harold
who took her to all the dances this
Christmas
She is very small-"petite." Harold calls
her, and "chic"-and WITHIN the year has
become quite skilled in the use of make
up box. Lately she's had her short red
hair cut in bangs Harold says it makes
her look "zippy" When she dances she
owes to make quick little kicks with her
feet as she turns, and she looks lawfully
cute" holding monaclc or a lorgnette
over her partners shoulder
Just now she is thrilled to death;
she's going to be a bridesmaid in March.

Rapacious "Oppressed Races"

The behavior Of the delivered nations
of Central and Eastern Europe-until
recently known as the Oppressed races"
reflects no credit upon human nature
in general and belittles the political
sagacity of the peoples concerned. Instead
Of pulling themselves together in a col
lectve effort to clear away the decaying
remnants of the old order and to build
up the framework of their future eco
nomc and cultural development, instead
Of doing their best to smooth out differ
ences of detail and to emphasize the COM
monness Of essential interests, they quar-
rel unconscionably
The world is invited to witness what
promises to be a free-f -for-all fight of
Poles and Ukrainians, Ukrainians and
Rumanians, Rumanians and Serbs, Serbs
and Italians, Magyars and CZccho- Slo-
Vaks, Czecho- Slovaks and Poles, Poles
aAd Lithuanians, not to mention the Ger
mans, who still enjoy the privilege of be-
ing hated by everybody in general. And
while this spectacle proceeds Bolshevism
is delivering its violent blows on the
eastern gate, and behind the scenes the
agents of Hohenzolernism rub their
hands, biding their time.
1t is a dangerous game In most of
.ho cases it is matter of three or four
counties, of another coal district, an
other railway centre, another port The
impulse is general. If the Poles claim
The whole of Eastern Galicia, with Is per
cent of the population Ukrainian, the
Polish city. We mention this instance
because it is typical of score of others.
There are excuses. The psychology Of
Inc Oppressed race is a chapter to be
considered. Oppression breeds in the
victim vindictiveness, eXclusivism, into-
orancc. The desire to turn the tables
is intensely human; and Europe cannot
afford to judge too harshly its stepchi-
dren for being what European states
manship, on the lack Of it, has made
them. But the peoples of Central
and Eastern Europe cannot afford to
try the worlds patience. The difficulties
to-bc settled are not inconsiderable; but
she one way in which they most probably
viii net be settled satisfactorily is if ali
tFlc contestants try to be Judges of their
OWE cases and executors Of their own
wards They would do q great deal bet
ter to restrain the overzealous elements
and prepare to appear before the tribu-
a~l with clean hands and substantial

A Great Career

Lowell said that Lincoln was "the first
American" In the same large signifi-
cance Roosevelt was the second He was
the second President in point of time to
unite in himself all the salient char
acteristics of what We have come to
recognize as Americanism.
There was a strain Of raciness, Of in
digenousness, in Colonel Roosevelt's
makeup which defed all the narrowing
limitations of environment He was
born in New York City; he got his edu-
cation in New England; he lived almost
all his life on the Atlantic seaboard
But no other American public man ever
sectionalism about him.
The Far West was his second home.
The vast spaces Of the Rocky Mountain
plateau were his hunting ground. He
had the pioneer instincts. He loved the
free, primitive life of the frontier. The
spirit Of the mighty migration which he
described in the "Winnng of the West"
was in his blood. Even more so than
Lincoln, he was at home wherever he
found himself within the great American
dornain---hunting bears in the care
brakes of Mississippi, deer or mountain
lions in the Yellowstone region, enjoying
the rough hospitality of lonely ranch
or sleeping out under the stars.
No phase Of American life was for
eign to him or outside his sympathy.
More than that--his sympathy Was net
merely receptive and intellectual His
approach to all the concerns OF his fellow
citizens was primarily emotional. he
was an intuitive American He knew
his own people because lie shared thci:
feelings as we'll as comprenendcd their
manner Of life and thinking.
Lincoln won his way to the hearts Of
men and women through his infinite
patience, humor and common sense.
Roosevelt lacked Lincoln's profoundcr
temperament. But he made up for that
gift by an enormous capacity for taking
pains.
He was self-madc, even more than
Lincoln was~for to his own painful
cxertions he owed first Of all his physical
energy, then his trained mind, his
knowledge Of books and languages, his
facility for interesting himself in va5t
range Of subjects and Lis extraordinary
success in breaking down the barriers Of
his social and educational setting. thus
bringing his own thought into intimate
contact with the thought Of the time
and enabling him to interpret With sin
Hular senstiveness and accuracy the
play Of mind of most Americans.
What stood out, therefore, in Colonel
Kooseyclt's equipment for leadership
was the uniyersality Of his American
ism. He came Of many strains Of Euro
peAn blood. He was a New York Knick-
crbocker on his fathers side, South
srner on his mother's II there Is
an American aristocrscy of birth, edu.
cation and wealth, he belonged to it..
New-York tribune., 1919-01-07

But what should give US pause before en-
rolling under that banner is that in real
ity, 1t Is the red flag Of class war. What
ever we may say of theoretical socialism OF
various types, and however much we may
ana ought, IN my opinion, to favor in some
form an increase Of socialized industry
the great fact remains that the Socialist
group derives its real strength from class
antagonism. This is even truer of the

There can be little doubt that we are
facing a great peril to-day the peri! of
perverting the democracy for which we
have just been fighting with such devo-
ton.
1t is our opportunity and our duty to
dedicate ourselves to the task of WORKING

News and Gossip of To-Day's
Market-PreSent and Fu-
ture Prices.

Being surfeited with good news, the
stock market to-day scared to new
heihts. It was one Of the most notable
demonstrations OF strength witnessed
, since the history making bull move
ment started nearly eight months ago.
First in Importance was the an
nouncement that President Wilson's
health is slowly but gradually inn
proving. The next most potent factor
was the practical admission Of labor
leaders that the steel strike has vir-
tually collapsed. Then, the big indus
trial conference opened in Washing
ton at which 1t is expected many
labor wrinkles will be ironod out.
Furthermore. the big British labor
strike was called off, which resulted
in Improvement in foreign exchange.
Prices opened higher and at no
time during the session was a re-
action worthy OF the name discerni-
Bile. All groups OF stocks moved up
ward vigorously and confidently.
The most notable advances were
scored by Mexican Petroleum with a
gain OF points, by Texas Co. with
a gain OF 10 1-2 points, by General
Motors with a gain Of l6 points and
Worthngton Pump which crossed 100
with a gain OF points All these
stocks made ne WHICH records for all
time.
Crucible showed an advance OF more
than 90 points over Saturdays low
price and the more important steel
shares, including U. 5. Steel. moved
steadily forward.
Equipment. sugar, leather and rail-
road shares which stand to be materi-
ally benefited by calmer labor condi-
tions responded in vigorous fashion TO
the better character of the news.
Twenty representative industrial
stocks touched a new high record
mark, and in this liss there is not in
Cluded such sprightly performers as
Crucible and General Motors.
Bull enthusiasm was not dampened
in the afternoon when money market
rates on call funds went To 10 per
cent.
the outcome of the Industrial Con-
ference is awaited with eager IN
terest. 1t is expected that the
advantages to be derived will be sub
stantial to both labor and capital.
Saturday II was feared that the con-
ference might prove a fiasco. The
powerful railroad brotherhoods in
tmated that they would not have
their delegates attend. To-day, how
ever, they served notice that they
would be represented.
Wall Streets confident expectations
on the outcome Of the conference are
based largely on the failure OF The
steel strike. II that strike had been
won labor, 1t is believed, would have
been arrogant in their demands. But
Wall Street Is convinced that the
radical labor element has been given
a much needed lesson and that as a
result demands they may make at
the Industrial Conference will be
tempered with reason and modera-
ton.
Profit taking by the unusually
large number OF day TO day specula-
tors now operating in the market
caused some recessions near the
close, compared with the high prices
for the day, but the undertone con-
tinued exceptionally firm. There was
no real evidence of liquidation or
distribution by big holders OF stocks,
and brokerage advices. which have
been cautious OF late, again had an
optimistic ring.
