The Relief of Poverty

Fifty Pianos Given Away to the Poor" is head line carried in exchange. Considering the number of the poor this world fifty pianos will not go far toward relieving distress. And, if there were pianos for all of them there other things they re- quire? What provision has been made for distribut- ing diamonds to the needy? Nor have we heard Of any association for providing orchids for the indi gent.
 This distribution of pianos takes place under an ar engagement we are informed to extend the advantages of musical training without means of secur- ing it. That gives the headline a somewhat different meaning but it is doubtful whether this well meant project will produce the results expected from So great an outlay; whether such investment could not be made to give the poor start toward helping themselves along certain lines It takes some~ thing more than piano to develop musical genius or musical capablity.
 While believe that there are flowers which blush unseen" and while many gem of purest ray seren the dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear we do not believe many musical geniuses are held down by lack of opportunity to themselves
 We may take the case of Caruso, who when still a young man, cobbler in a squalid quarter of Italian city Even there the world heard him and brought him out. There two arts that are diff fcult to be kept in conceament Tn fact any art is much more likely than not to manifest itself But music and painting consistently bring the born mu- sician or painter out for observation at least
 We suppose, though, there is here there great undeyeloped pianist, lost needle haystacl des> tined never to be found unless he or she should be discovered by of such piano distribution as this Even then, the discovery would be a chance one and we do not think there many lost needles
 Some millions of pianos, believe, are or have been In use in the United States and there thou sands added monthly. Yet they have discovered, in half century painfully who oor1d ,,oI-, a living playing piano
 The money which fifty pianos would cost invested in facilities for afording vocational training to ce tain number of young men and women would almost certainly produce results That money judciously distributed among struggling families whose heads are barely above water would bring them to solid ground.

The Case of Itaay

Ii is the impression of Ambassador Page that the peace treaty will have to be completed without '1e aid of Italy, It was evident that when Premier oi lando left Paris last week he was not staging p can with the allies. He expected to return put at tue same time that depended upon the instructions he would receive at home. These instructions IL was understood would come from the government al'ei it had been ninutey informed Of matters Hillch H"0 not baAn sci forth in official correspondence Any way be left fhe way open for his return to PaFs.
 Instructions though have reached both the gov
 on+ a,d +ba nreu1ier They have come from the aon,e of 1+aI and they seem to have left the gov arnrnan+ 2 choice between a break with the conIer- ence and an outbreak of the people The premier has preferred ito have trouble from without Italy than within it."
 Italy is now in complete possession of the terri tory which it has demanded and concerning winch II has rejected all propositions for compromise oh- doubtedly it will remain in disputed possession No body but it's neighbors that side o1 the Adriauc will be disposed to put it out by force and they VIII not be able to do so for long time to come France and Great Britain will not be disposed to exercise force.
 They may perhaps feel that this is a convenient way ont Of the situation There will be preserved in the peace treaty the most important Of the fourteeh points" or rather the definite breaking off of the most important point will have been avoided America certainly will not go that disputed region dozen Fiumes would not excite us to that point.
 It has been suggested that of the weapons of the League of Nations might be turned against Italy even before the league has been formed-economic pressure. We hardly think so. We do not believe France and Great Britain would consent to that and we that proposal by administration to do that would mper the league itself whose ratification is yet by assured Once we have ratified the league and have assumed obligations under it, we would of course be bound to make of the provided for it's operation.
 So far however, Americans have only a academic interest in the dispute. Italy's conduct hoggsh and unjust it is is yet vioative of nothing that has been established law of nations.
 It therefore looks if Italy would "get away with it." but then it will business of Italy to without sympathy against those peoples who will i'm medately become the enemies of Italy. Italy will be without friend the face of the earth, without the pale of the league though it commit offense against the league after it has come into existence

Are You Going to Do It?

We'll, what are you going to do about it?
 We are speaking now of Phoenix quota of the Victory loan, and Mari copa's share.
 We were for a time apprehensive as to what Arizona was going to do, but the situation locally has become so seri- ous that we have no time to worry about anything outside our own jurisdiction.
 The men who have been put in charge of the loan admit that they are alarmed for the good name of the town and the county.
 When it appeared that we were fall ing down, it looked to them as If they had task before them.
 As day by day passed, the task seemed harder and harder, until now tbev say it has assumed the shape of a miracle to be performed. It will take the combined and strenuous effort of nearly all the citizens of Phoenix and the country to perform this miracle.
 Are you going to do your part in raising more than a million and a hall dollars in ten days? :.
 We are speaking to every man and woman. It may be only $50 part or 1t may be $10,000 part.
 But whatever it is it's YOURS.
 Are you going to do 1t?

 Huh!" Whats above the ears Whose ears? (Begins to pun his eai with his free hand. Then the dawn of light creeps over his face). Oh, yes-I know what you mean. Well, it's like this If you take and measure from ear to ear over the head and 8 little to the back, and its IA inches you're conscientious. If it's less than 14 inches-you're immoral.
 And if it's MORE than 14 inches:" we asked.
 "Oh, well, that's different" And thereupon he washed down the re- maining doughnut with the glass of milk. We finished our pie while he harrangued us with the vagaries of the cerebeIlum, the significance of the shape of the neck, and the ramifica- tions of phrenology.
 "This phrenology is great stuff" he insisted as we paid our checks, you want to come Up every Sunday night and learn all about it. Now take me- but we caught a passing street cal and hurried to the office where we grabbed a tape measure to see how much under 14 inches our dome measures, from ear tv ear and just little to the back

Tommy Aids My Rrescue-But pr.
 Certeis interferes

Not until l was left alone for the night did 1 find a chance to unpack Thy apples and hunt for lha message from Tommy. When at last Miss Den nis left me, l made short Wor.l of my task. On the wrapper of e.tch apple wtls scribbled a word I set thain down in a column, then made a sentence of them: Let me know where your room is, then watch for my truck
 Bu; how was I to let Tommy know if it kept on raining. I wouldn't get out for walk next day. Not that I was afraid of the rain. but my nurse wouldn't humor me. That was the first penalty I paid for attracting Dr. hramers attention.
 Of course it did rain next morning but l heard the toot of Tommy's horn as his car rounded the curve in the drive. I hurried to the stained glass window in the bathroom and out of it 1 dropped a ball of khaki yarn. Where 1t went 1 could not see. If a guard found it all was lost. But if Mike, the terrier, were on that truck, he would retrieve it in a flash and not a. living soul would be able to take it from him except his master.
 It was a long chance My heart stopped beating until I heard scram- ble of hard pads on the cement drive, whistle, and then a command, Here, you little tykei''
 l hunted up another ball of yarn and went back to my knitting. It was a good start-still it looked as if I were not going to get away before Dr. Ger teis discovered me.
 But in the afternoon heard the toot of Tommy's horn again I was alone l was supposed to be taking a nap. I ventured to shove up the one win dow from which l could see the drive. Tommy was loading his truck with empty boxes. Queer idea, it seemed to me. until I remembered that boxes must stili have wartime value. Prob

ably it was Tommy's custom to collect all containers marked with his name After a while his machine moved away lit was light and high and it swayed dangerously. On top of the hood over the drivers seat was word in chalk, Today"
 All right. Tommy" 1 said to myself. I'm ready any minute, but I don't yet see how it's to be managed.''
 And perhaps I never would have managed it at all, except that I soon found myself in desperate situation.
 The hours passed and I had to put on a dinner gown. The group with which I dined every evening was an assembly of very distinguished per sons. There was musical comedy man in the group, one of the geniuses of the age, who had to have asylum treatments" every few years. There was a rich old maid whose brothers were managing" her fortune-she was shut up to prevent her marrying-it was an old scandal In the town.
 I put on my prettiest gown because Dr. Kramer had planned to dine with the group and if Tommy failed, might need Kramer. I was applying a last touch of powder to my nose when Miss Dennis announced:
 "Dr. Certeis is in your sitting room,'
 I caught my breath. What would the man say when he saw the woman he loved walking toward him like ons resurrected from the dead? paused on the threshold. The nurse stood beside the door. Certeis wa. bending over bunch of roses Jappt had just delivered. The swish of m, silk dress against the door made hin turn. His eyes were very sad H, looked straight into my eyes for frac ] tion of a second, then he came forward and bowed before me with his accus- toned elegance, and said

HOW THEY WON THE WAR


 I'm not going to buy Victory bond" said a man on the street the other day, T bought one of the last issue and I'm not through paying for that yet. I'm going to let somebody else buy this time
 All right, neighbor." said tlref re- turned soldier, who was soliciting his contribution. T know just how you feel about it. We used to feel the same way about it over in the trenches We'd just get into rest billets after a turn in the trenches and then Fritz would start another push and the line would weaken here and there. Then there would come an emergency call from c. H. for reserves to help shove Fritz back where he belonged. Thert were no fresh reserves and so they'd have 10 come back to rest biliets and get men. And we'd be so dogged tired that nothing seemed to matter. l. seemed impossible that we could Ger up on our feet and pack our kit and grab our rifles. And so when the non cons came down the little streets to route us out we'd say, Gosh. sers. we can't go in again We just been in and We ain't through resting up vet. Let some of the other units go in this time
 And you know what they'd do to us then? Why. the officers woult ~tsay, All right boys, you're right. G'wan back to bed
