PUBLICITY FOR FRAUD.

The Associated Advertising Clubs or the
World is an organization that is seeking to pro-
tect both business advertisers OF repute and the
public from various fraudulent schemes to pro-
mote unsound enterprises under cover Of seem
ingly legitimate publicity. Recently maya
zine devoted to investments was investigated
and condition of things discovered which has
semblance at least Of unfair methods. This
magazine printed many pages OF advertise
ments, not one of which its management admit
ted was contracted for by advertisers or paid
for by them. In fact, it had but few scattered
advertisements obtained in a business way; the
rest were Gifted from other publications.
The magazine, however, contained pages Of pub
Lefty for certain enterprises not marked as adj
vertisements and from these the management
admitted that it derived its revenue. The AS
ISOLATED Advertising Clubs of the World de-
clares that such publications are used by agents
of enterprises that have not good standing in
the financial world to beguile investors; these
agents point to the magazine which has every
look of prosperous publication as convincing
proof of the soundness of their propositions
So far reaching has the attempt to mulct the
public of money for unsound investments gone
that the federal treasury department. is making
common cause with the banking interests of the
country in effort to warn the public. 1t is time
for inexperienced investors to take advice OF
men and institutions who have knowledge and
who can be trusted. This advice can be had;
the banks are good advisers for the public to
turn to. And the advertising that appears in
public prints known to use care and honest
scrutiny in accepting advertising becomes more
valuable as guide than ever

TODAY'S Bat OF VERSE
LE You HAVE LOVED A GARDEN.

IF you HAVE LOVED A GARDEN.
Have you seen tall larkspur
With rosy hollyhocks?
Or purple wings half folded
OF rises in flocks?
Do you know the arrow sweet
OF honeysuckle bloom?
Have you seen the appletrees
Weave color on loom?
There is wave OF roses
Breaks on wall know,
And some are red as sorrow,
And some are white like snow.
If you have loved a garden,
My roses bloom for you,
For you the honeysuckle's sweet,
And the tall larkspur blue
Though walls be high about them,
Your gardens bloom for me-
| have seen your helfotrope
Cut like little tree!
I know the way the birds go
To pools have not seen.
You know how the bees come
The high. blue way between
A garden and garden
Wherever 1t may be.
Because love garden
Your garden blooms for me!
Have you yellow margolds.
Vivid pungent, strong?
Goldfnches will find them
With lovely song;
/ have little Glove pnks,
Sturdy fringed and gay.
And the golden bees come
A long, long way!

COOPERATION CARRIED TOO FAR.

In many of the proposals of changes in our
educational system larger share in admins
tration by the teaching force and greater free
dom for pupils are included This is true Of the
recommendations by the American Federation
iof Labor Unquestionably great benefit will
come to the schools of the nation as a whole
from making the real consensus Of the teachers
themselves factor in management Of the
schools; there is no worse autocracy than that of
some boards and supervising systems and we
have too large number of this type. All
changes that are proposed have, as federation
speaker put it, the intent of "giving the pupil
the greatest possible values a motive.
But when school administration is proposed
as cooperative affair in which board of edu-
cation teacher and even pupil representatives
form joint council, there is danger that one
great value-one of the greatest-wiu be lost.
This is discipline. Every child has a right to
know discipline; to be trained to work and live
under it; to come to really appreciate its neces-
sity and inevitableness. Even anarchy cannot
do everything without recourse to discipline, al
though itself product of destruction OF discip-
line Lenine early proclaimed that bolshevism
must command absolute obedience to soviet di-
rectors No change in any social, industrial or
political system does more than alter forms Of
discipline.
In remodeling our school practices it will be
foolish delay of good results if we forget that
a weakening of systematic discipline which gov
ems these practices will upset the whole struc-
ture. There is plenty of needless even of oh
structive, regulation in our schools and this
ought to CO. But strong, intelligent obedience
building control must remain or the schools will
not train for life as their pupils must live it.

ton of the doctrine that Europe must
not interfere In American affairs, ana
at once shifts to the league all western
hemisphere questions, which, under
the Monroe doctrine, the United States
for a hundred years has claimed the
exclusive right to determine.
During the administration OF Presi.
dent Monroe, the government OF Great
Britain addressed communication to
the United States In which II sought
to join hands with this country in
sort Of protectorate over the western
continent, to the effect that the United
States and England should issue .
Joint declaration, announcing that
while the two governments desired for
themselves no portion Of the Spanish
American colonies, then in revolt
against Spain, they would not view
with indifference any foreign interven-
ton in their affairs. This proposition
to join England in league OF two
nations was declined by President
Monroe. He took the position that
the United States alone is most inter-
ested in the affairs Of the western con-
tinent, and, in message to congress,

said:
With the movements on this

more Immediately connected, and
by more causes, which must be
obvious to all enlightened and I'm
partial observers. We owe it,
therefore, to candor and to the
amicable relations existing be-

that we should consider any at

systems to any portion OF this

peace and safety.
We could not view any inter
position for the purpose of OPP
pressing them (American coun-
tries) or controlling in any other
manner their destiny. by any
European power, in any other light
than as the manifestation of an
unfriendly disposition toward the
United States.
Our policy in regard to Europe,
which was adopted at an early
stage Of the wars which have so
long agitated that quarter of the
globe, nevertheless remains the
same. which is, not to interfere in
the internal concerns Of any OF
its powers.
1t is impossible that the allied
powers should extend their poll
