warnings to all unfriendly to him, or
weakening in their loyalty to him,
that he intends to fight to hold on to
what he has as long as he is able to
make the fight. Knowing the tenacity
of the man, his critics call it some
times stubborness, the warning of a
fight is not discouraged by any poll
tician IN Washington.
He is out for third term. Every
body here says that. The Lansing
dismissal struck that phase finally as
the dominant and dominating note.

STAR GAZING
Rv n. Addinqton Bruce


Vt was an exceptional night for stars
| no clouds, no moon, an air brlskly crisp.
High overhead hung Vega, with Altar
to the south, Arcturus sinking In the west,
Capella rising low on the horizon IN the
northeast Two young people, standing in
the open meadow, Toasted their minds and
their souls in study of the conscientious
You could hardly see them from the ROAD,
their pocket-light occasionally flashing IN
FREELY semblance as they turned 1t on their
sky map.
Along passed two farmers. homeward
bound. One voiced his puzzlement at the
figures in the meadow, questioning MS COIN
panion as to what they might be DONG
"Doing?" came the contemptuous response:
They're staring at the stars Thats all
they're doing Foolishness!"
The Young people, hearing, smiled to them
selves They could afford to smile. Foollsh-
ness their star gazing might seem to the
farmer To them it was a source OF Joy' Oh
inspiration for finer thinking and nooler 90
ing. l. y,
As, in truth, star gazing will prove to all
who undertake it, not as a mere "atchlhs
of twinkling pinpoints, but as a means oi
gaining, clearer understanding OF the world
1borein we live. a broader vision of the uni
verse of which our world is but tiny 1rag-
ment . +,
eff YOU doubt God, go look at the stars,
is bit of advice that any religious minded
thinker might we'll give. Also go look al
the stars if burdened with worries ana cares
For as one star lover has exclaimed from
the heart:
"When earthly troubles Cypress us there Is
nothing like astronomy for belittling noun
tains to their original molehills."
| Conceit is put in it's proper place by
course of star study. The petty achievements
of which men often are unduly proud are
seen in truer perspective through contempla
| ton of the wondrous armament God ha
| wrought.
How wondrous it is! How incredibly loft!
and profound. How eloquent, despite it's eter
nal silences.
You gaze at the single star Capella. THAI
is, you thing you are gazing at single
star.
Actually, astronomers inform you, you are
beholding two stars, millions and millions OF
miles apart, yet so far from you that thel1
light seems to come as from one star only!
Then you let your eyes roam to all quarters
of the compass. Everywhere stars shine dowr
upon you, vast spaces between each star
however thickly they may seem to be clus
tered And beyond them all are other spaces
Space unimaginable, unknowable.
Your soul grows as you look Your heart
reaches out and upward Life and the uni
verse and the supreme Director of life and
Maker of the universe acquire an ever more
significant meaning to you. You are gaining
an education you need-an education every
one needs.
So, let none of us sheer with the farmer,
"Foolishnessi" ...
Let all become star gaZers looking up, up,
studying the lessons written in hieroglyphs OF
gold-lessons that will help the learner to
pass happily through his span Of earthly ex-
istence and to prepare worthily for the phase
of which the heavens in their majesty give
assurance.

HOW TO COMBAT BOLsHEVISM
By DR.. Frank Crane

Just now the world is confronted by the
menace of Bolshevism.
The Boshevists have the largest army in
the world.
They are actuated by an emotional force
fanaticism that is stronger than any pa
triotism opposed to it,
1920 is alarmingly like 1914.
Then it was the Central Empires motivized
by insane race-pride and Imperialism; now
it is a mad horde who are not opposed to
any nation but to all nations.
It is impossible not to sympathize with the
Russian masses. They have been for genera
lions subjected to the most cruel tyranny of
history. That the people at last arose and
overturned can but somehow crafty our
sense of poetic justice.
But the revolt has got out Of hand 1t has
been taken advantage of cleverly by group
of mad Mullahs astride the wild horse of
theory. Selling the reins of power, the Boil
sheviki, small minority, marshal the hordes
of Russia to overthrow the civilization of the
world
How shall we combat it? Two or three
truths of common sense are apparent amid
the general confusion.
J.. If the Bolsheviki are wrong the most
effective way to prove it is to give them a
chance to work out their theories in Russia.
If wrong they will collapse; if right they will
succeed, and if they should happen to be
right we have no desire to oppose them.
2. Force should not be used. Russia
should not be attacked; at least no more
than is necessary to prevent aggressive con-
quests by her. Bolshevism is an idea. No
body but fool thinks force can stop an idea
3. We should set our own house in order
The thing that directly and constantly favors
Bolshevism is Glass. All efforts to stiffen
Glass consciousness, to wage Glass war and
to appeal to Glass hate should be combated
4. A combination of Employers and Capt.
talists to flight Labor, or an organization
OF Laborers to flight" Capitalists is plough
ing the soil and sowing the seed of Bolshe-
vlsm, whose very life blood is Glass fury.
5. The essence Of Democracy. the soul Of
Americansm, is that all men are human
Our salvation consists in getting Capitalist
and Laborer to realize that, to get together
to emphasize cooperation, to drop the fool
notion that violence ever gets any man or
class of men what they want.
g. More attention should be paid to re-
organizing industry on a cooperative basis,
to realizing the primacy of the human factor
in business, to the cultivation of mutual I'M
derstanding, and to a proper detestation of
strife.
7. The summary use of courts, the reli-
ance upon laws prohibiting strikes or profit
teering, the transfer of great industries to
government control, the dependence of labor
upon it's power to stop industry or destroy
property and the hostile repression of la
boris efforts by guns and militia are all Of
piece of folly.
There is but one way out. 1t is to Get To-
gether. If we don't we shall certainly get
ours"

AZ OW there be five varieties of
M the female bore, each more

NJ the female bore, each more
deadly than tho ether.
The first is the Woman
Who Has Seen Better Days. You
ly abounds in business Offices and
boarding houses. Within five min
utes of your first meeting with her,
she has told you that she never
expected to come to THIS, and after
years, she is still telling you the
same thing.
She is a monograph with one
record, and it never occurs to her
that no human being except herself
cares a tipker's damn about her
pedigree, OF the riches her family
used to have. or is interested in
any "has been" stuff. All we care
for is the now-present.

that would put her on a level with
the plebeian woman who is having
her best days in earning a good
salary. And if she keeps boarders,

as dishwater, because 1T is poured
out of Great Grandmother's silver
coffee pot. About which, and the
splendor in which she was reared,

The second among bores is the
Woman Who Tells You Her Trou-
bles. She keeps her tears on tap,
and turns them on at every oppor-
tunfty. She comes to see you and
weeps on your breast until you
like some uncanny bird that lives
by feasting on it's own heart, and
she forces you to partake of her
hideous meal.
She tells you tales of the horri-
BILE brutality with which her hus-
band treats her, but she goes on
living with him.. She relates piteous
stories of her childrens' ingratitude,
but she continues to cherish them.
She bewails her poverty. She la
ments her, bad luck. She bemoans
her i'll health. She is on a perpetual
orgy Of melancholy. and she forces
every one who knows her to drink
her cup of sorrow, and she Is new
er so happy as when she has cast
