FRESH IS
 WATER AT NEPTUNE BEACH

Ninety thousand gallons of fresh water a minute are pouring into Neptune Beach at Edsewood Park.
 This was determined Monday when Hugh Hill, park manager, sat down with pencil and paper and figured it out for himself.
 'Edgewocd Park has the purest water Of any swimming place in the state, sad iiill and l take the greatest pleas ure in proclaiming that fact everywhere I go. With 90,000 gallons flowing in hourly, keeping the pool constantly fresh. the water is all that could be desired, especially as the water comes from our own mountain stream and then goes through a filtration plant"
 As added attraction. and for the benefit of Thursday afternoon crowds during the summer, dancing will be the order at Dreamand dance hall every Thursday afternoon from to o'clock,
 This will give all store employees who are given half holidays on Thursdays an opportunity to come out and enjoy themselves" said MT. Hill Besides that, we will cut the price for the ben eft of the boys and girls who are to enjoy this special concession. Every thing will be in full sway these after moons, just as it is in the evening, ano we hope the store clerks and any others that wish to will take full advantage of 1 this opportunity.

Shipping Board Problems.

Easier to explain than to defend satisfactorily
has been the long period during which the Shipping
Board has been undermanned. Even though the
new members, who began to function yesterday
now know little of the technical problems they must
meet, and even though they cannot expect retain
their positions long enough to gain the knowledge
they need, nevertheless they deserve credit for the
readiness with which they have left their private
affairs to serve the country. They least join
aggressvely in that movement already initiated by
the chairman of the board to punish by due process
OF law former employees who have grated" their
way into unearned incomes, and to deal summarily
with shipping companies. using the boards vessels
that known to be inefficient in administration
and avaricious in their trading policy.
The board, Of course is to cooperate to the
limit with Congress and the press of the country in
getting at the bottom OF the charges bruited about
at the Walsh investigation. Even, as a matter of
policy not to say of principle, it is the only course
to pursue The public is disposed to differentiate
between what happened during the war; and what
after, in its weighing of the charges 1t will insist
upon the examination sooner later OF the highest
officials OF the board, and will not be content with
any schemes to make subordinates the scapeeoats
The public will insist on fair play and condemn
anything seeming to be done by the Investigators
solely for partisan gain. This will be their temp
tation, and it should be resisted by them and sum-
marily halted by public opinion.
Judgment upon the general policy OF the board
at any given period should only be passed in the
light of conditions then prevailing conditions and
aims that changed with kaleidoscope speed as the
war went on and the world settled down to COM
merce OF normal sort again. The world trade
and merchant marine operation problem is an
elusive, unpredctabe that gives even the abest
of the most experienced maritime nation
low average of successful prophecy as to how the
currents are to Hindsight here, as in so many
other operations, is much truer than foresight;
and we have to admit that in the making and
handling OF feet we, after all, are somewhat ANA
teurish though magnihcenty ardent in hope and in
confidence that we will win through.
The national peril is in the possibility that
wearying in we-doing may lose what We have
invested at enormous expense, just because urged
to by ideaists who will not bless any cause if it
at all falls short of perfection of execution from
the very first day. Far easier is il to build craft
than to educate honest and able enough to
operate a huge feet solely for national good The
real Shipping Board problem lies just here 1t is
to find men to operate we'll as to build the ships
who have character and personal integrity as
large as their jobs.

Notwithstanding general strike conditions in the
trade and the difficulties of adjustment of the in
dustry to operation in a plant, the experiment
that began in 1918, closed with net profit of
$4,000 on an investment of 10000 in 1919. The
workers received higher wages and the consumers
got better product for less money.
Distribution of profits proceeded in accord with
plan acceptable to all, that clearly recognized
differences in contributory service; but the yeast
OF love was working in the leaven, and along to-
ward the last of 1919, the most skilled of the
operatives who were getting from SIS to 500 per
week, declared that it not just that the lions
share of the profits should go to any individual or
small group of individuals Therefore all operatives
drawing more than $50 per week petitioned Mr.
Nash to make distribution of profits in July, 1890

For all such rays of light on a tangled and
aggravated condition of strife throughout the world
humanity must be grateful. That the churches of
the world becoming more sensitive to the
needs of the time is shown by the aggressive ac-
tion which their church and legislatures are
taking nowadays, first by investigation of the
of industrial war, and second, in judgment on the
ethics involved. The latest of the large Protestant
denominations to move in this way is the United

Golden Rule" Nash.

There is Universalist layman in Ohio, who
makes ready-made clothing in Cincinnati. He has
won quite reputation within limited circle of
students Of present-day problems of industry by
bis frank, unqualified assertion that he can run
his business prohtably by following the Golden
Rule" and teacher in behalf of this gospel the
name of Arthur Nash has become familiar name
programs of religious and industrial conferences
He will get national attention because of
the offer which his firms employees have just made
to quit work for month and give their places
to persons who have been thrown out of employ
ment by the slump in the clothing trade. Other
details of this offer interesting but the kernel
of it from the ethical standpoint is this: People
offering to do they would be done by, were
they out in the street. The Nash company's work
ers have visualized the state of mind and body of
persons other than themselves. They have shown
that they have the imagination of altruism and not
the hard realism of exclusive egoism.
Any phenomenon of this kind naturally pre-
supposes a cause. Some person in the company
must have had ideal and have induced others
to accept it a working rule of action. 1t is
even So Arthur Nash is the man. He had run
his factory successfully during the war. About
the time the armistice came he had come to the
conclusion that what industry and business needed
was The Golden Rule, divine law governing
human relationships, accepted by all religions and
proclaimed by all prophets and teachers OF every
creed; the only nfallible workable industrial and
economic law in the universe today" to quote his
words He at called. his employees together
