Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

THURSDAY OCTOBER 10, 1915

Herbert Hoover warns America
against the dangers of the radicalism
which has swept Europe and is finding
this country fertile field for the
termination of class distinction and
class hatred. Mr.. Hoover's warning is
timely, for we are beginning already to
reap the harvest from the seeds of an
archy sown by agitators. There are
two well defined classes of the discon-
tented and potentially dangerous. The
first are the out-and-out "reds;' the
preachers of syndcalsm and revolu-
ton. Their number is comparatively
small as yet, and they can be con
trolled by vigorous, determined meas
ures.
The larger class, from which the
"reds" hope to recruit, is made up Of
all sorts and conditions Of people who
are suffering under present economic
conditions, or who feel that they are
not equitably dealt with under the ex-
listing order. Most of them are law
abiding and well disposed, and they
will remain so in preference to en-
bracing the wild doctrines of the
''reds" unless driven to extreme meas
ures by their sense of injustice. But
there is minority who, while not
openly Bolshevistic or anarchistic, have
a tendency to radicalsm which makes
them more easily susceptible to the
arguments and persuasions of those
who would upset established American
institutions and substitute the tyranny
of a class for the orderly government
by and for the whole people.
Those who have the most real
ground for complaint against present
economic conditions are not the so
called working class. Workers in fac
tories and other industries are far bet
ter of, in the relation Of their earnings
to their expenses, than clerks, teachers,
clergymen and others on all too meager
salaries. The small salaried class is
the class of workers who have suffered
most seriously from inflated prices
with no corresponding initiation in their
pay envelopes And il is this class
too often overlooked or underestimate
ed when the relations between capital
and labor are being considered which,
through long suffering, may show the
worms tendency to turn
Fortunately, in the conference now
going on in Washington, this class may
be said to be well represented. Labor
and capital have their groups, but the
group, representing the public, surely
includes the clerks, the preachers, the
teachers, and all others who have no
powerful labor organizations to plead
their cause. And this third group, rep
resentng the public, is the balance
wheel Of the conference. Whatever
good comes out of it will have had the
impress of this groups presence ana
influence. May the clerks, the teach
crs, the preachers, and all others
whose salaries have been in inverse
ratio TO their expenses in the parlous
times of the last few years, get their
just dues at this groups hands. Such
a happy outcome may deprive the
"reds" Of many potential converts.

About the Diamond.

The diamond is the hardest stone
known. It's name (French, diamant) Is
derived from the Greek adamao-un-
tamable. The word was probably at
tached to the stone because ii con
veyed the idea of invincible hardness.
No acid will scar 1t; no solvent will
dissolve it. Ages may pass without
dimming the luster of its adamantine
face.

When Piano Was New.

The first public performance on q
piano was at Covent Garden, London,
1852 years ago. The invention of the In
strument Is credited to Cristofalli, an
italian; ]. G. Schroter, a German, and
Marius, Frenchman. The first crude
pianofortes were made early In the
eighteenth century. but for many years
they received no serious consideration
from musicians. Johannes lump, a
German, established the first piano fac
tory In England, and 1t was he who
built the instrument that was used in
Covent Garden.
