Tired Business Mans Plant.

The plant of tired business man
against conditions which are annoying
and perpleXing him has been put into
the Congressional Record by Represent
ative King of Illinois as follows:
II have been held up, held down
sandba gged, walked on, sat on. fatten-
ed out and sqeezed. First by the
United States government for fedora
war tax, liberty loan bonds. thrift
stamps, war saving stamps: for state
county and other taxes. capital stock
and organization that inventive mind
can invent and extract whatever / may
or may not possess.
THE government has so governed my
business that l do not know who owns
it.
II am inspected, suspected, examined
and re-eXamined, informed, required
restrained and commanded. so that
don't know who I am, where / am OF
why l am here.
'All that / know is that 1 am sup
posed to be an inexhaustible supply OF
money for every human need, desire OF
hope of the human race. and because
l will not sell all l have and go out
and beg, borrow or steal money to
give away, I have been cussed, dis
cussed, boycotted. talked to: talked
about, helped up, hung up. robbed and
nearly ruined: and the only reason ]
am ciinging to life is to see what is
coming Off next"
The particular significance of this
protest is because it was introduced
during discussion of tariff measure
by the ways and means committee
which is in charge Of originating still
further money raising legislation.

League Invades the House.

The league of nations discussion is
spreading over into the House from
the Senate wing of the Capitol. Rep
resentative Simeon D. Fess of Ohio in
impromptu debate last week wrote
into the Record notable synopsis of
the two widely important instru-
ments" that became worldwide in
their Significance, offered as the foun-
dation pillars upon which this nation
was built" He pointed out that "one
was given to this country by Thomas
Jefferson" and said, Il think the Dec
laration Of Independence is easily the
greatest charter of human liberty that
has ever been given to any people by
an individual or group of individuals
1t is a mere announcement of the fun
damental principle upon which self
government Nas later builded. That
was announced in 1776." Then he de-
saying: Then in 1897, after the crit
ical period of American history under
the famous Articles of Confederation.
we received from Philadelphia. the
same city which has given us the Dec
laration of Independence. the second
famous charter-the Constitution of
the United States.
Speaking with authority as the for
mer head of a law college, Repre-
sentative Fess describes the essential
differences between these two instru-
ments: The men who framed the
Declaration of Independence couldcpot
have framed the Constitution. The
men who framed the Constitution
could not have written the Declara-
ton of Independence. The one repre-
sents the liberty of the individual un-
der government and the rights of a
state in the confederation, while the

! MAKING THE MOST OF
OUR CHILDREN
A Series of Plain Talks to
Parents
By Ray c. Beery, ABB, MA.
President of the Parents Association.

Some very unsatisfactory methods
have been handed down 10 us through
generations. And one of the very worst
methods is that of lining up children
, asking them one at n time in a suspic-
ious manner If they are guilty of some
misdemeanor, and then if no one con-
, fesses. reason that some one is telling
lie and punish the whole group in or
der TO be sure to catch the one who
really is at fault.
This method. even to-day. is used in
some of our schools by ignorant teach
ers and it is used in many homes by ig-
norant parents
Even If we were to grant that one
child in group of five does need a
thrashing, it certainly would be posi-
tive injustice as we'll as decidedly
wrong method 10 chastise four children
who have spoken the truth.
And it is by no means certain that
it is the wisest thing to use corporal
punishment even on the one who is dis
covered in n faisehood.
Here is n letter received from a father
on this question:
My father had the practice OF pun
ishing all of the children for a misdeed
Wnen ne Could not nnu out WnlCn one
of us was guilty. I have always felt
this was unjust to some of the children
and yet I have been tempted 10 use this
plan when I found myself in a similar
prediciment. Do you think it is ever
wise TO use this plan?"
No. Frankly. do not think it ever
is wise TO use the plan you suggested.
In the first place. it is unjust to the
child who does not happen to be guilty.
In the second place. IL is likely to spoil
him. It plainly suggests that you do
not trust him. And when he is whipped
after telling the truth he knows that
nothing worse could happen IL he told
lie and so the method tends to encour-
age scheming to avoid future whip
pings.
We don't whip our friends; If we did.
we wouldn't keep them long. So with

Congressman Silent on
Nations League Plan

Washington, Feb. 15.-Leaders in
Congress read the plan for league
of nations in press dispatches from
Paris without formal comment and
most of them were most guarded
in their observations even in cloak
room and office discussions. Their
silence was prompted by a desire
for careful study of the leagues
proposed constitution, not by dis
interest. and there were evidences
that much of the little remaining
time of the present session would
be given over to speeches on the
subject beginning in the next day
or two.

DISHEARTENING EXPERIENCE
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX.


Il am twenty-three and considered
attractive. Recently I met a Young
man at dance whom I went out
with few times. / invited him 10
my aunt's house. He came and
stayed while. and then we went out
to dance. When bringing me home
he asked me for kiss and said
that he wanted me to trust him as
he trusted me. I refused him the
kiss and have not heard from him
since. Now, Miss Fairfax, every
time 1 meet young man il is the
same thing over. Why is it?
y. Y. z.
It is discouraging for you % get
the impression that young men do
not care 10 know self-respectinr
girls, the kind OF girls who are un-
willing TO kiss strangers, bug I as
sure you this is by no means true Of
all young men. and that your ex-
perience has merely happened to be
unfortunate. Don't allow yourself
to take kissing any more lightly.
but make every effort to meet a dic
ferent group of people.

la girl more attractive. And in this
case. neither the girl who so legiti-
mately wishes to please her ffance.
or the fiance who so naturally
wishes his sweetheart always TO
look her best. knows what the root
of the difficulty is.
L suspect that 1 have already
given the answer. 7 think if this
young girl thoroughly thought out
the subject of dress and discovered
wat he suited her in general, she
would md ii an easier matter TO
please that critical lover of hers.
That is why l urged at the be-
ginning that it is almost useless 10
try TO please men" or an indi-
vidual man. or the world in gem
eral. unless woman has first
learned how to please herself in the
matter of dress-unless she has
really learned something about a
subject that is after all of very real
importance.
If woman is suprcmely beauti-
ful. perhaps dressing TO please men
can be satisfactorily accomplished
by throwing a crimson scarf over
her shoulders. or thrusting a bright
flower in her hair.
But with most of us it's a diff
ferent matter. Most of us have to
think hard and experiment endless
~ before we learn how to look our
best. But it's worth doing. It's
the contribution that each of us
can make to the beauty of the world.
