LET THERE BE A BUDGET SYSTEM.

Congress has begun work on a huge business
lproiect-the restoration of the nation to Its
normal political, industrial and social status.
There is no need of discussing prosperity because
this nation is prosperous. 1t is going to take
huge amounts of money to finance this business
project If big business concern were facing
the same sort of problem, the proper department
would lay before the board of management
statement of the assets in hand for the work. with
tdue consideration of these assets the manage
ment would apportion funds and means for the
carrying forward of the project This is simply
the budget system which all good business re-
sorts to in conduct of its affairs. 1t is the sys
tenn on which the governments of Great Britain
France and Japan have long financed their ma
tional affairs. In these governments there is
an appropriating department and a spending
department which work in. harmony; the gov
eminent knows and can tell its people what
money it has to spend as well as how it pro-
poses to spend it. There is no such practice as
Iappropriating on estimates and either adding to
Isuch appropriations by spasms or allowing an
over-ap appropriation to be spent simply because
the money has been voted. These are things
peculiar to our government finance and not
initiated by sensible nations. 1t would be a
good beginning at record task If congress
were to set about the institution of national
budget system. No move could be made more
likely to beget public confidence in motives of
ECONOMY and efficiency in the government.

THE CHANGING WORLD.

Whether we approve Of it or not the world
is in g the ringing grooves of change" is chang
ing very fast, has changed immensely in the
last few years, Theories have become condi-
tons. Some things we feared, or some of US did,
have come upon US; and many excellent per-
sons are in profound perplexity as to what
their attitude should be towards accomplished
facts
For example, the Presbyterian general as
sembly has once again gone through the futile
fo1qnality of condemning the Sunday newspaper
and adjuring the faithful not to read, support
or sanction it in any way. Yet that is an insti
tuition which has just as evidently come to STAY
as have the Sunday trolley cars which a former
assembly undertook to condemn Other ones.
tons of the same kind are Sunday picture shows
and ball games and there are many more, Is
anyone so rnyoptic as not to see that. whether
for better or worse, these have arrived and
must be accepted as accomplished facts? What
Cur attitude towards these may be is less i'm
poltant to the world than to ourselves. Con
scientous people are entirely within their rights
in 1efraining from such amusements, but arc
they justified or judicious in taking position
Of intoIerant antagonism thereto?
Not without foundation was the old gibe tina
the church followed the popular procession prc
testingly, keeping just behind it all the tim
and near enough to make its fulminations hear
and accepting a generation later the innov
tons it had strenuousiy opposed. But in as f

out of the war 1t seems probable that the
more matured and thoughtful minds in the
church realize with deeper concern than shall
lower ntellects that this is critical period for
mankind when the church must either develop
its old capacity for leadership or see it pass TO
other hands. 1t is safe to assume that earnest,
gifted churchmen realize this far more keenly
than laymen do; for voices are already heard
within the churches calling for a new attitude
towards the problems of the day.

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

Ii you want plenty of thick, beautiful,
glossy, silky hair, do by all means get
rid Of dandruf, for it will starve your
hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure way
to get rid OF dandruf is to dissolve it,
then you destroy it entirely. To do this,
get about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retiring
use enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, of your
dandruf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop, and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is Inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

JOURNALISTIC GRIND.

Sioux City Journal. 1t is said
Henry Ford is growing weary of pro-
ducing copy for his special page IN
the weekly paper which ne launched
at Dearborn to readjust the world
and to bring all men to his way OF
thinking. Mr.. Ford has found what
others before him have found, that
Journalism is a grind rather than an
inspiration Other men, bigger than
Mr.. Ford, have taken up journalism
with glee and with confidence that
the world awaited the products OF
their pens as sheep await the snep-
herds call to feed. They soon nave
found the grind too great and have
relinquished the task to other hands
Mr.. Bryan launched the Commoner
TO remake the world OF politics and
today it is among the obscure jour-
nails. Mr.. Bryan found the weekly
grind Of the paper was a different
field from that in which one central
idea could be revamped and repeated
weeks without end. Senator La Fol
lette tried the same plan. His maya
zine is among the medical almanac
class at this time. Mr.. Ford is fol-
lowing a we'll blazed trail.
The grind gets the soul Of those
who attempt journalism without the
requisite training. One idea may
fill the allotted space today, but to-
morrow, next week, next month,
there must be something else. The
one idea is exhausted. New reser-
yoirs Of inspiration must be tapped.
New sources OF mentality must De

TODAY'S BIZ OF VERSE
THE LITTLE KNIGHT IN GREEN.

What fragrant-footed conner
Is stepping Ger my head?
Behold my queen! the summer!
Who deems her warriors dead
Now rise We, knights of many nights,
From out your sleep profound!
Make sharp your spears, my gallant peers,
And prick the frozen ground
Before the White Host harm her,
Well hurry TO her aid;
Well don our elm arTnor,
And every tiny blade
Shall bear atop deWy drop,
The life-blood of the frost,
Till from their king the orders ring
Fall back the day is lost
Now shame to knoghthood brothers!
Must summer plead in vain
And shall l wait till Others
NV crown of sunshine gain?
Alone this day I'll dare the fray,
Alone the victory win;
In me my queen shall ind, ween,
A sturdy palad1n-
To battle! Ho! King Winter
Hath rushed on apace-
My fragile blade doth splinter
Beneath his icy mace,
/ stagger back, yield-alacki
fall. My senses pass.
Woe worth the chance for doughuest Iance
Of all the House of G1assi
Last hope my heart gives over,
But harki shout cheer!
Don Daisy and Count Glover,
Sir Buttercup, here!
Behold behold! with shield of gold
Prince Dandelion comes
Lord Bumblebee beats valiantly
His rolling battle drums.
My brothers leave their slumbers
And lead the of war;
Before our swelling numbers
The foes are driven far
The days our own; but oyerthrown,
A little knight in green,
/ kiss her feet and deem it sweet
To perish for my queen

GERMANY's DYES IN READINESS.

Major T. W. Sill, of the chemical warfare
service, has just returned from three months
spent in German territory and he has seen both
banks of the Rhine where are many OF Ger
Emany's most important chemical plants. The
report he makes ON what he saw should set the
government at Washington to thinking. 1t
must soon formulate policy toward our war IN
dustries and of these the manufacture OF dyes
and medicinals have attracted large capital
land a considerable force of workers. Lit has
generally been accepted as probable that the
tariff commission would report facts and fig
ures to congress that would make a compre-
fhensive knowledge of the situation here and
abroad possible, and this supposedly is what it
will do. Then comes the question OF protecting
these industries or letting Germany swamp
them There is no doubt that she can strangle
world trade in dyes and medicines, if she is per-
mitted to do so. Major Sill says her chemical
plants are in fine condition; that during the war
the expert worknen were retained as trainers
of new workers and that except for Lack Of lubr1-
cants the efficiency of the plants Is greater than
before the war. Germany fortified her chemical
plants carefully. Major Sill says that the re-
ported destruction and damage Of her chemical
manufactures is not a true statement of con
ditions. What damage was done has been
easily repaired, materials are III readiness and
skilled labor force on the ground. Nothing
will prevent rapid rush of German-rnade goods
from these plants into world markets and espe,
cially into our markets except Legislation ~ pro
tect our markets from dumping OF German
chemicals into them
