Zine words butter no parsnips." If
they would President Wilson could
make success of at least one of his
undertakings. Fine words could not
save the Mexican fiasco. Fine words
could not prevent the disaster wrought
by the free trade law during the few
months before the war stopped its op-
Grafton. Fine words could not make
up for the surrender of our rights to
the Panama Canal. Fine words could
not lessen the taxes due to extravagant
administration. Fine words could
not carry letters when the mail service
was demoralized. Fine words could
not keep us out of war when the Huns
were deliberately numbering our citi.
zens. Fine words will not remove the
dangers Of European entanglements
Yet there are many people who pre-
ter fine words rather than butter on
their parsnips.

SOUTH OUT OF SADDLE.

q An analysis of the state of commit
tee chairmanships of the next house,
as framed by the Republican commit
tee on committees, shows the transfer
Of power from the south to the north,
with the middle west exercising the
dominant influence.
Whereas nearly all Of the important
chairmanships, during the Democratic
regime, were held by the south, only
two states south of the Ohio river,
Kentucky and Tennessee, will figure
in the list this time. These two states
will have one minor Craftsmanship
each.
The chairmanships of seven Of the
ten principal committees will be held
by representatives from the four mid
die western states Of Iowa, Minnesota
Wisconsin, and Michigan. Two of the
remaining three go to Pennsylvania
and one to California. Pennsylvania
leads the list Of states in the. numbe,
of chairmanships with eight. Illinois
is second with seven, but none Oh
these is a major craftsmanship.

MINISTER MILITANT.

II don't propose to have it (the
league Of nations) crammed down my
throat until I know what it is, what
it looks like, tastes like and what II
is to cost this country" This is the
way one minister expresses his views
concerning the league. He is the Rev
Charles A. Eaton, pastor Of the Madi
son Avenue Baptist Church, Of New
York, and head of the National Service
Section of the U. s. Shipping Board
He expressed his views while speak
ing at Wilmington, DEL, and praised
the critics of the league plan, even
though he is for league of nations
by saying: God bless the thirty
seven Senators who criticized the
league OF nations plan. Americans
have to make the greatest decision
since the signing of the declaration OF
independence"

WISE SPENDING.

Are you a wise spender? Wise
spending is regarded as a highly i'm.
portant preliminary to thrift by the
U. 8. Treasury. AS part Of its cam.
paign for promoting popular savings
through Thrift and War Savings
Stamps during 1919. it has issued
through its Savings Division the fol-
lowing definition Of wise spending,
which merits the thoughtful attention
Of every family and every individual
who would get ahead In life:
Wise spending implies the balanc.
ing of all needs and of all means of
meeting these needs and, after bal
ancing needs against means, spending
in such a way as to meet the most
urgent needs, even il lesser ones have
to be left unsatisfied; in essence it
means sort of budget-making. When
a family. city or state makes a budget.
what it does essentially is to take a
comprehensive view Of both needs and
income. It is important that not all
the income be spent on the first needs
that may occur lest other more urgent
needs appear and no funds be left to
meet them; that is, thought must be
taken 80 that available income can be
applied intelligently and wisely to
cover most important needs and to
satisfy them somewhat In proportion
to their relative importance. il
Perhaps the most important and
dinacult problem in connection with
wise spending Cor saving) is to real.
ize the relative Importance of future
as compared with present needs. The
temptation of all Of US is to satisfy
present needs at the neglect of future
needs. 1t is very foolish to neglect
the urgent necessities of today for the
petty wants of the morrow, but few
need very much persuasion to induce
them to take care of the present.
Where most of us are foolish or un-
wise is In satisfying petty wants of
the present rather than saving in or
der that urgent needs of the future
can be met

SAME OLD STUFF.

Remembering the language in which
President Wilson induced his demo,
cratic congress to reverse itself on
the subject of Panama canal tolls,
against the interests of the United
States, it will not be surprising if he
tells the country that the proposed
constitution Of the League of Nations
must be Endorsed "in ungrudging
measure" or he will not know how to
deal with other vital international
problems. .-~

When delegates elected by colored
Americans in convention assembled
to 60 to France and appeal to the
Peace Conference for the abolition of
the color line, applied to the State
Department for passports, they were
refused.
BUT, when Irish-Americans asked
for passports for four of their repre-
sentatives to go to France and work
among the delegates to the Peace
Conference for FREE IRELAND,
which really means interfering with
the internal affairs of Great Britain,
the passports were granted without
a bubble.
II 1t is right for Irish-Americans
to go to the Peace Conference, why
were Colored-Americans denied the
right?

Washington, Nov. 12.-An army

of the army on November was
only 261,6S6-21.603 in Europe or
Asia and 203,S35 in the United
