poses of the false contention of the
bitter-enders that if we joined the
League We would be called upon to
send our boys across the water In case
of national dispute over there. In
every case the moral and substantial
support of the League would defeat
the aggressor. And any nation
would hesitate q long time before
pitting itself against the whole civiliz-
ed world. No, the pHrpose of the
League Of Nations is not to foster
war, but to prevent it. There was no
League OF Nations In 1914, and the
suppression Of German Autocracy
called for the sacrifice of thousands
of our bravest and best. Such a
League would have prevented the
World War, and many an American

URGE EXAMPLE OF ?
SELF-DETERMINATION

That friends Of Irish independence
In the American Congress could make
a more effective impression on Great
Britain by granting Philippine indie
pendence than by merely expressing
sympathy with Irish aspirations is the
suggestion contained in a statement is
sued by the Philippine Press Bureau
of Washington, d. G.
"Twice in a period Of nine months"
reads the statement, "the United States
Senate went on record as being in sym
pathy with the aspirations Of the Irish
people for a government of their W
choice
"Still another way for the friends of
Irish independence in the American
Congress to make an impressive argu-
mentw would be to grant the independ-
ence that the 10,500,00O inhabitants of
the Philippines have repeatedly de-
manded. Americas own representa-
tives In the islands have officially re-
ported they are ready for independence
and have recommended that such indie
pendence be granted.
I'VE submit that the granting of
Philippine independence would be like
ly to be accepted by Great Britain as
even stronger proof Of Americas be-
lief in self-determination than the pas
sage of the Irish resolutions. because
Great Britain's councillors Of state
could not then successfully make the
point that the American Congress Is
asking Great Britain to do something
the United States itself has been asked
to do and has not done.
"The Filipino people have confidence
in the word of America and hope that
now that the Senate has reiterated its
sympathy with the principle of self
determination it will give Great Brit
ain and the other powers of the world
a concrete example Of consistency and
good faith by granting Philippine In
dependence"

way: when a passage to Cathay (the

gold, and caused such a ferment that
several vessels were fitted out for the
express purpose of collecting gold.

If q sound mind and rational habits
do so much to keep the body sound,
and If nature unaided can cure most
of our durable ills, life is a fairer deal
for all of us than it has sometimes
seemed. Of course, it is not so easy
as 1t sounds to put fear and worry,
narrowing love affairs and destructive
emotions-hatred and envy-out Of

it ourselves. Doctors cannot do it for
us, and realization that the matter of
health is largely in u own hands
must contribute to the wiser ordering

Sense In Superstition.

There is often q common-sense rea-
son underlying what, at first sight,
seems merely a superstition. Take, for
instance, the old belief amongst col
Tiers, that a mine much frequented by
mice Is a lucky mine. We know now
that mice are peculiarly susceptible to
foul gases, and the presence of un-
usually large numbers of these little
animals, therefore, is proof positive of
the absence Of any danger. Hence the
alleged "luck."

Prices Going Down.

The keen student, who forecast
lower prices on most commodities,
and who refused to purchae at the
high prices prevailing for SO long a
time, has the satisfaction now of hav-
ing his opi&on corroborated by the
highest authority-the Federal Re-
serve Bank for the Eighth District at
St. Louis.
In the latest monthly statement tn
bank says the course of values on a
broad classification of commodities ia
downward.
Included in this, the bank state
assnt says, are several important
staples which for a long period had
remained mistaken at abnormally
high levels.
The wise nan who put his money
in United States securities during the
high priced era, and refused to pay
the outrageously high prices for
articles he could DO without, is now
in a position to get more nearly his
moneys worth.
