MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Senator Harding's View on Utilities

Senator Harding, Republican nominee for
president, takes sound view on the public util-
ity situation of the United States. He realizes
that an unfair financial burden has been i'm
posed upon many of them and that they are
having a hard time to supply the public with
service that makes for comfort and convenience.
The attacks, many of them unfair and un-
warranted, that have been launched against the
utility companies of this country have prevented
many of them from obtaining the capital neces-
sary for their successful operation Some of
them have been forced into the hands of receiv-
ers as result.
Senator Harding is aware of the relation that
exists between the utility company and the util-
ity user. He rightly holds that some utility
companies 20 years ago abused their privileges
and rights, but also contends with justice that
these conditions have been rerneded, and that,
in a new day, we must judge the utility company
from another angle.

PURPOSE
BY George Matthew Adams

PURPOSE
The man who works merely for hire
is indeed a most ignorant man.
And the man who can see nothing
beyond his hire is worse than ignorant
he is useless.
Nothing is more inspiring for us
than to get the fact that through every
bit of physical and moral life there
is a central purpose.
The more a man learns, the less he
is concerned. For through the work
ing of the worlds, the stars, the rivers
the oceans, the animals of earth, and
right down into the movements Of
human beings, there has been planted
a divine and noble purpose. Every
thing and everyone to some extent OF
other is a supporter of the great
whole.
And it is as we get to actually see
these truths that we stop worrying
about lot of mysteries that we think
"take the joy out of life" for us.
Just the minute that you get sci
purpose to working in your life, yot
get happy. Not that you won't man.
times get unhappy, but the ruling
thread will be one of happy accord
But that purpose must be a dis
tributing one-something that will
leave a useful tract behind.
Any man who attempts to live tt
himself alone soon feels the press o
failure and the suffocation of oblivion
robbing him of all that he has.
But with purpose leading and con
trolling, new worlds loom, and grea
crowds gather to cheer. while thu
marching of ideas takes on great move
ment for the benefit of all.
1t is not going to matter grea
deal as to what you do, so long al
there is a set purpose of worth t.
guide you.
The great God likes to walk arount
in the purposeful heart!

sary public SERVICE, he says, merits square
deal and must have it. Old-time values are out
of harmony in the new era of moneys changed
measurements. Stable financing, righteous earn
ngs and just returns must be based upon a
proper charge for the service rendered"
This position does not mean that Senator
Harding believes the utility companies must not
he regulated. Quite the opposite holds true. On
this point he says: 81 believe in strictest regu-
lation without conflicting authority, because all
public utilities must yield to the voice of public
interests But the same power that protects the
public must protect the public service, whether
that servant is capital or the workman who oper-
ates the utility"
This broad Interpretation of the relation be-
tween the producer and user of a utility should
commend itself to every citizen. All of us make
daily use of public utilities. Gas, light, water,
ton, are necessities intimately connected with
our happiness. Let us suffer temporary inter-
ruption, and the even tenor of our industrial,
commercial, business and home life is disturbed.
Should we be permanently deprived of them,
great would be our loss and inconvenience.
Hence, the stability of our public utilities and
the assurance that they will continue to function
with efficiency are highly desirable conditions.
The best thought of our country is being directed
toward the sterilization of utilities, so that the
public will be served cheaply and efficiently, and
the capital invested in the companies be able to
earn a fair and just return. Good craftsmanship
recognizes the duality of interests involved and
advocates the protection of both.

There is a popular fallacy to the eff

Inconvenience and embarrasSments
When a plump gentleman approaches
the boss and says: 81 am not feeling
we'll today. In fact, l am quite ILL.,"
the boss takes one look and says:
All right, you may go, but / am
sorry I have no baseball tickets left"
A fat man can wallow in the depths
of physical and mental despair for
six weeks, can be given up by six
doctors and can be yanked back by
degrees; but the first time he goes
tremhngly upon the street, with his
right foot feeling as cold as an Es-
kimo dogs ear, and his left foot as
hot as an electric flatiron, his circula,
ton as negligible as that of country

he meets will say: my, how we'll

We have not had many illnesses,
but never in any case have we been
able to emerge from sickness in the
state known to novelists as pale and
interesting" There have been times
when we would have given a good
deal for a haggard expression. Ii
would even be difficult for rudy
complexion to convince the doctors
that he felt sick if the doctors didn't
have means of their own for finding
out. And it usually takes certificates
from these doctors to prove to the
fat mans friends that he hasn't been

Then they all wink at one another and
go back to work. They will null II
over for an hour and then somebody
will say: ANY time you see that bird
sick. you will see Pierpont Morgan in

The moral is not to be fat. So long
as a man retains his plump figure and
girlish laughter, nobody is ever going
to take him seriously.
