THE HOME TREE.

Discussing, recently, various pro-
grams of reconstruction, Edward T.
Devine, sociologist and welfare
worker said:
we look to the transforming
emancipating influence of the future
without apprehension The family will
survive and the home will survive as
its habitat, the more wholesome and
efficient for all the new resources OF
civilization
Who, that walked through the
streets in the time of the great war
and saw the service flags with their
silver and gold stars hanging in the
windows, did not feel that the home
was first in time of war, the very CEN
ter of society? From it the ties of
loyalty ad devotion reached to all
parts of the earth.
The home was the central pillar Of
society's temple in the past, and it
must be the central pillar of any new
social order. National contacts and
enrichments will be colorless. unless
they find concrete expression in the
active service and devotion of home
life.
There is a myth of the Scandinavian
countries that the mighty ash. Ygdra-
sill, supports the whole world Insects
might gnaw at it and animals prowl
around it, but it stood the htest of
the ages. The roof tree must be the
center of any new social order; it has
stood the test of war and peace.
There are two great essentials for
the maintenance of the home; Good
churches and good schools.

THE BATTLE OF 1920.

The statement was made the other
day in debate, that the total expenses
of the United States in this war had
been greater than the cost of running
the government from the time It was
founded in 1889, down to 1917. This
cost of the government up to 1911,
is figured at AL While
it is not yet possible to approximate
by the time bills are all paid. the
total expenditures will have been $780,
900. 100000,
VIII any man say that is a reason
able proposition? The United States
had an army that began at 100000,
finally reached 100000. and then
tapered off again. Should it cost as
much to run this army of increasing
and diminishing size for about two
years, as TO run the whole government
for 1877 years, with the costly Civil
war and several minor wars included?
1t appears preposterous. There must
have been wild extravaganza in many
places.
The people will never grudge any
amount necessary to preserve the
honor and ideals of the nation. But
they We're angry when they heard
such reports as that a lot of men We're
earning $4,000 a week and more in
war work. while the soldiers were
suffering and dying in the trenches
for $1.00 day.
The government was in the hands
of men who had had little experience
in business organization. They did
not know how to get things done eff
ficiently, promptly, systematically,
and economically. Theorists were ap-
pointed to do work that should have
been given to the best business brains.
Now it is reckoning time. The people
have got to clean up what remains
after the riot of waste. and come
down to the cold grey light Of the
morning after, under the guidance of
competent business men.
On the other hand, there should be
absolute fairness OF Judgment and
knowledge that in making war dollars
could not be counted against results,

new hotel at Socorro, the Val Verde,
said the furniture cost two thousand

Socorro has just completed one OF
the most beautiful hotels in the en-

which should spur the patriotism of
the citizens of Albuquerque to fill an

THE FARMERS son.

An eastern farm paper prints a long
series of verses purporting to be the
explanation by a farmers son of why
he left the farm and went to the city
The gist of his argument is found in
the following:
left my dad. his farm, his plow,
Because my calf became his COW.
l left my dad-'twas wrong, OF
course
Because my colt became his horse.
! left my dad to sow and reap,
Because my lamb became his sheep;
l dropped my hoe and stuck my
fork
Because my pig became his pork.
The garden truck that l made grow
Was his to sell, and mine to hoe.
