STUPID Or Clever?

T1HE editorial antics of the New Yorl
Tribune and The Sun and New Yorl
Herald appropos the ambiguity AND
evasiyeness of Senator Harding, their pres
| idential candidate, are no more confusing
than they are amusing. No imagination is
required to picture the alarm that Repub-
lican leaders must feel in consequence of
the violent difference that RACES daily be-
tween these great metropolitan dailies con-
corning the meaning and intent Of the ut
terances of the Republican candidate.
! Senator Harding has both of them and
everyone else guessing as to where he
stands respecting the League of Nations.
His speech of acceptance offered him a
splendid opportunity to relieve the country
Of its doubt and misgivings of the Repub-
lican party on this great question, but the
opportunity escaped him. His speech cloth
ed his personal position in a veil of even
more doubt and obscurity than the Repub-
lican platform.
Everybody knows already where Hard
ing stands on the Wilson treaty and the
Wilson League" declared the Sun and New
York Herald. "He isn't going to fiddle with
It; he isn't going to touch it. That's final"
Evidently the rock-ribbed Republican
Tribune does not believe or agree with all
that it "sees> in The Sun, ''for with equal
positiVeness the Tribune assures a COM
planning subscriber that nothing in the re-
cent speech of Mr.. Harding warrants the
assertion that "the Presidential candidate
of the Republican party has repudiated the
League principle"
Although Senators Johnson and Borah
and other bitter-enders have detected in
the Harding speech reputation of the
League, tho Tribune knows better, and
points with p ride to the fact that "Mr.
Harding who voted twice for entry into the
League begins his speech by denying any
desire to hold aloof."
Commenting upon the dispute between
the Tribune and the Sun, the New York
Times observes that cit is not for the likes
of u.s. to NEEDLE in this high dispute of
learned Republican interpreters of Hard
ing's words. We might remind them, how
ever, of Lord Coke's definition of the three
different degrees Of certainty. in writing"
The Times Invites attention to Sir Fred
er1ck Pollock's explanations: The first de-
gree, certain to common intent" means
that 1.-The sense is clear to a man of fair
ordinary intelligence; the second" certain
to certain intent in general" means that
the words are plain even to stupid man;
the third, certain to a certain intent in
PARTICULAR is another way of saying that
lhe meaning is $50 precise and exhaustive
that clever man cannot read it in a
wrong sense if he tries.''
AS The Times observes, the controversy
between the Tribune and the Sun is fully
covered by Pollocks explanation of Lord
Coke's definition of the degrees of the GER
talnty OF writing. 1t Is for the parties to
the controversy so decide which is the
stupid man and which is the clever.

To the Rescue of Poland

~ ESPERATE though her predicament it
is hardly conceivable that Poland
will pass under the yoke of Soviet
Russia. Neither the Allied Powers nor the
group of newly risen republics can brook an
event so perilous to their common democracy
and civilization. AS the frontier defense of
those political and social ideals against which
the Wild tides of Bolshevism are turned, Po-
land must be preserved whatever the cost
Her own rights give her title enough to ma
tlonhood and liberty, while her Importance
to the security of western Europe and of
sane, free government everywhere would
make her destruction world disaster. Let
the barrier she lifts be swept away, and
there would be no predicting the bounds of
the Bolshevist flood.
IL is relieving, then, to learn in news dis
patches from Paris that France and Great
Britain will hear to no Soviet demands that
involve the disarmament of Poland or a.
cnange in her system of government to con-
form to Russian theories, or her acceptance
or boundary lire less favorable than that
professionally drawn by Premier Lloyd
George, or the use of her territory cas- a
orldgehead in any sense between Germany
and Russia" 1t has been assumed that anv
Or all OF these demands, and perhaps others
more destructive Of Polish sovereigntv and
saIety' would be made by Lenine and his
crew. Their military successes which wera
indeed decisive and far-reaching, have greatly
emooldened them. If by any means they can
crush or cripple the chivalric little nation
that stands rock-like against their prona-
ganda, undoubtedly they will do so. And
as the situation now appears, only Allied in
terference can prevent them.
Blundering as the past policy of the Gov
ernments at London and Paris may have
been in this matter, it seems that they now
are alert to the danger and are preparing
for action as decisive as events may call for
1t is reported, for instance, that large stocks
of munitions from the Allies are moving to-
ward Warsaw from Danzig and from Ruma-
mia and Czechoslovakia "These supplies. i"
the dispatches relate, "were for the most
part originally intended for the use of Cen
eral Denekine, but were delayed on the way
until too late to be available for him. The
munitions being sent from Danzig, however.
were shipped recently for the especial use
OF Poland" Equally interesting is the infor-
nation that Finland, Rumania, Hungary and
other OF the smaller States born of the war
are eager to make common cause against the
Bolsheviki, preferring this course to the ne
cesslty of encountering the enemy single
handed later on. Certain it is that all
real democracies, whether in Europe or else
where, have reason to resist, by such means
as they best can employ, the lowering Soviet
menace.

THE MANIC-DEPRESSIVES
BY H. Addington Bruce

| Y 7 1SIT any hospital for the insane and you
" are sure to find among it's inmates a
numbe afflicted with a strange form
| of mental disease known as manic-depressive
| insanity.
The victims of this disease alternate be-
tween outbursts of maniacal excitement and
attacks of profound melancholy. They pre-,
sent a sad spectacle and one which impresses
| the non-medical beholder as being singular
| in the exteme.
| Yet actually manic-depressive insanity is
| but an exaggeration of condition widely
found outside Of hospital walls.
In fact, alienation between gladness and
| gloom is among the commonest of life's phe-
nomena. And there are thousands of per-
| fectly sane people who swing back and forth
between the two in a way that is truly re-
! markable.
One day these people are Gin the seventh
heaven of delight" as the phrase is. An
other will find them plunged to the depths
Of despair"
They may thus alternate without obvious
reason for their strangely changing moods.
Or reason for the alienation may be seen
in the chance occurrences of their everyday
lives.
They become unanimously exhilarated at
any little happening which gives them pleas
ure. A slight reverse will suffice to shift
them into the depressed state, when they are
as SAD dS before were SlaQ.
Which indicates, of course, a great lack of
emotional control. 1t also suggests that, If
anything should occur to weaken them physi-
cally or to shock them physically, they might
themselves become victims Of manic-depres-
Sive insanity.
And, as a matter of fact, it is out OF their
ranks that the deplorable army of the manic
depressives is chiefly recruited AS noted by
the neurologist Drysdale:
every frequently the manic-depressive pa
tient has long exhibited manifestations of alb
nomal excitability, accessions Of unprovoked
anger, defiance to discipline, defective Volt
ton, and pronounced emotional reactions.
"These oftentimes are the forebodings OF
future mental disruption. And inasmuch
as the treatment Of manic-depr ess1ve dig
turbance is essentially in preventive measures.
such warnings should not be permitted to
continue unheeded."
From which it follows that the chief thing
needed to lessen the occurrence Of man1c-de-
pressive insanity is to train the emotionally
uncontrolled to gain greater control Of their
feelings. So that they will react unduly
neither to occasions for JOY nor occasions for
sorrow.
This training may be achieved even in the
case of persons of advanced years, as medical
specialists are constantly demonstrating. But
it is most easily done in childhood. And be-
cause of the possibly dire outcome Of emo
tional extravaganza, it behooves every parent
to undertake it.
The. first display Of excessive emotionality
should be recognized for what 1t is-a danger
signal of grave import. Ignored it is certain
to impair efficiency and destroy peace of
mind, In the end it may destroy the mind
itself

ROUND STEAK
By DR.. Frank Crane

Somebody named Johnson, name with
most excellent vibrations, writes me and
says that in spite Of rumors he has heard,
Ito the effect that have hired hand or two
to write my stuff, he believes that I honest
ly wrote all by myself article which some
time ago appeared over my name, in which
stated 1 could cook round steak so that it
would taste as good as fried chicken and
be as tender.
eff you are not bluffing," he says "you
could do world of good to many house
keepers and stag clubs if you would print
your recipe. The writer has worn the outer
coating of enamel off his teeth in a vain at
tempt to make himself believe that round
steak Is as tender as chicken. Give us a
hand, pail
Hence, being called, lay my cards down,
face up on the table, to wit, namely and as
follows:
Have the butcher cut you a round steak
thin. little thicker than a lead pencil.
He will insist on cutting it thicker, saying
it will be juicier and so on. Draw your re-
volver and compel him to obey you. Don't
have the steak too thick.
After cutting the steak from the piece,
have him separate in into portions, each
about the side of your hand Don't try to
cook the steak all in one piece. It must be
in small sections, just as fried chicken is
best when each joint is cooked separately
Have the butcher then take his sharp knife
(Which is much better for the purpose than
any knife you have at home, because he
knows the art of sharpening and you don't)
and criss-cross each piece on both sides, maxi
ing network of gashes. Don't cut clear
through. Cash ehout half way through And
on both sides, don't forget. So that each
piece will be in tatters, almost ready to fall
apart.
Put in the frying pan plenty of good sweet
lard. Don't use butter. 1t will burn. Don't
fry in deep fat, as with doughnuts, but pleS>
ty of fat, as with fried chicken
Rub each portion of the raw steak in flour
Rub it in good.
Drop into the hot skillet
Cover it with lid. Keep covered This
cooks it through and makes it tender
Fry till a golden brown, turning once in
awhile. You notice the process is exactly
as with fried chicken, Southern style
After you lift out the meat, put in flour
let it scorch bit, then pour water and milk
mixed into the hot grease and meat parti-
cles left in the skillet Just how much, you
will have to find out by experiment Let 1t
boil up and boil down, keep stirring, until
you have gravy of the right consistency
Flavor according to taste, with salt and
pepper, before cooking.
If the result is not good it is because Won
have not followed directions.
Round steak not only is cheap, but It IA
all good meat, with the minimum of waste,
and properly cooked it TASTES better than
any part of the beef.
