Discover and Grow Rich;
Every Day Offers Wealth
of Opportunities to All

Discovery! You must discover in
order to be rich. You must not be
satisfied to accept the night good hu-
moredly, to go to sleep after a day
empty of all discovery.
There are no small victories, no
negligible discoveries; if you bring
back from your days journey the
memory of the white cloud of pollen
the ripe plantain let's fall in May at
the stroke Of your switch, it may be
little, but your day is not lost. If
you have only encountered on the road
the tiny urn of jade which the moss
delightedly balances at the end of its
frail stem, it may seem little, but be
patient. Tomorrow will perhaps be
more fruitful.
If for the first time you have seen
a swarm of bees go by in search of a
hive, or heard the swapping pods of
the broom scattering it's seeds in the
heat, you have nothing to complain Of,
and life ought to seem beautiful to;
you. If, on that same day, you have
also enriched your collection of hu-
manity with a beautiful or an inter-
esting face, confess that you will go
to sleep upon a treasure. =.
1t is an unending game, and it re-
sembles love, this possession of a
world that now yields itself, now con-
ceals itself writes Georges Duhame,
in the Century. 1t is a serious, divine
game.

CREEL'S BUREAU IN CONFUSION

The committee on public informa-
tion, headed by George Creel, cost the
government about $6600,00O on the
face of it's records according to official
reports now before congress- which say
the committees affairs cannot be
wound up for six months because of
the confusion.
Chairman Creel and other officials
of the committee are charged with
gross negligence in handling the gov
ernment's funds in a report by E. K.
Ellsworth of the council of national
defense, appointed to liquidate the
committees affairs.
1t appears that Immediately after
the signing of the armistice," Mr.. Ellis
worth said, practically all of the Off
c1als of the committee threw up their
jobs and returned to private life, leav-
ing but few minor officials in charge"
The committee issued hundreds of

Costs Woman More
Than Man to Live
Government Investigation Fixes Budget for
Family of Five at $4,000

Official estimates for "health and
decency" budget for government clerks
place the minimum annual expenses
of a family of five at $2262; an I'M
married woman at $1,083, and single
man at $1,000.
These figures were made public re-
Gently by DR.. Royal Meeker, chief of
the bureau of labor statistics, in con-
nection with the investigation Of fed
eral salaries by a congressional COM
mittee
The food item in the family budget
amounts to $773.93. The clothing bill
for the year is put at $513.72, of
which the husband is allotted $121.16,
the wife $166.46, eleven-year-old boy
$1,000, the five-year-old girl $3.50
and the baby (two years) SAT. Hous-
ing, fuel and light are placed at $42S
and miscellaneous expenses at $546.82,
a total of $2,262.47.
If the wife was especially COM
petent in the art of shopping did her
own sewing and practiced all house
hold economies the budget might be
reduced, it was explained, to a crock
bottom minimum" of $2,025.56.
The bureau in compiling those es-
Inmates made a hat allowance for
the wife of one and a half hats
year, $40 for a winter hat and $5 for
a summer one, the winter hat to be
worn two years. An item Of $8.40 is
for a newspaper, held by DR.. Meeker
to be necessity. The family amuse-
ment appropriation is set at $40, which
also includes magazines, though, in
general, such luxuries as the latter,
it was pointed out, are to be enjoyed
at the public library.

GRAYSON: Mr.. WILSON'S PHYSICIAN

A man who can serve one presi-
dent as naval aid and physician is en-
titled to consideration. A man who
can serve three presidents so different
in temperament as Theodore Roose-
welt, William H. Taft and Woodrow
Wilson can justly claim credit for
great professional skill and an even
higher mark of distinction for diplo-
macy of the very first order.
Carey Travis Grayson, rear ad-
miral, M. D., Phi. G., F. A. G. S., q. S.
N, doesn't claim credit for anything.
AS matter Of fact, he is an unusually
modest person when it is considered
that upon his sturdy shoulders has
fallen the burden Of keeping three
presidents in physical trim and restor-
ing them to normal health from the
wear and tear Of Office cares.
You never would know that the
quiet, unobtrusive man with the strik-
ing features of an Indian, who comes
and goes unostentatiously about the
White House, was the chief physician
and probably the most conspicuous ms
