GOOD WILL AND PRODUCTION.

What is wanted to secure the increased pro
duction that is the one essential to righting our
industrial plane to normal is good will; good
will of labor toward management, OF manage
ment toward labor, of Eotn toward the pubic.
Moves to promote and create this good will are
most helpful, and at Atlantic City, New Jersey,
late this month session of the United States
Chamber Of Commerce is to be devoted to con-
sideration Of Increased Production, the
speeches and discussions to present the views
of both management and labor. These discus
sions, or the most pertinent parts of them, are
to be published in pamphlet form and dlstrlbut-
ed widely to employees in various industries
Safety first has got the attention OF employees
through plant talks and constant display OF
posters. Something of the same sort is purpos-
ed in this matter Of putting wildly before the
workers of our industries the need of greater
production. The workman of this nation is OF
a high type of intelligence; he is open to argu-
ment. What is needed is the will to reason to-
gether with employer frankly and fully over
production and general conditions making for
this betterment and increase. Mutual under
means mutual good will and this
means. a right solution to our industrial diff
culties

GOVERNMENTAL HORSE DEALS.

Here is one single minor example OF the
senseless way IN which the administration ex-
pended the peoples money: During the war
the government owned three hundred and
ninety-one thousand horses and mules. 1t de-
tcided to brand them and contracted for. one
hundred and ninety five thousand branding
irons, or almost exactly one for every two of
the animals The contractor bought for the
purpose twenty thousand pounds of copper
more than he needed, paying for it thirty nine
and half cents d pound. The government
bought his surplus copper at that price and sold
ii for eleven cents pound And the horses
and mules were never branded The branding
irons had not been delivered when the ar1ns-
tice was signed.
1T cannot be denied that the war department
rose superbly to the occasion in ordering equip
ment and furnishing for these three hundred
and ninety-one thousand horses and mules. 1t
bought for them about three saddles and three
sets of double harness apiece; also three horse
covers, four horse Brushes, five nose feed bags
and seven halters for every animal owned. A
mule would have been fairly well loaded had
all the equipment provided for him been piled
upon his back; and had the one hundred and
ninety-fve thousand branding irons done the
service such irons usually do every quadruped
owned by the government would have been
tattood from ears to tail.

DQSERS AND DOSED.

Professor Stephen Leacock, the Canadian
satirist whose dispositions on men and things
are so generally delightful, points out that a
bone-dry banquet is feast of cormorants fol-
lowed by dreary lecture, and that dinner
party has become a gorge followed by somno-
lcnce. He finds that the cohorts of hired spies
and salaried shoppers paid by hypocritical So
cietes Of hyserical uplifters to act the treacher
Gus part of secret informers are chilling the
Joyous spontaniety out Of life and making it a
deadly serious and depressing thing

money could buy, the rich would live and the

MEN OF MANY LANGUAGES.

Buffalo Times: One of the most &C.
.complished linguists living, is Wilfred
Stevens, a translator nsthe service OF
the state department III Washington.
Mr.. Stevens knows SO languages.
According to an account of him in
Everybody's, his requirements include
Chinese, Japanese, Persian, Turkish,
Armenian, Arabic, Hebrew, Bulgarian,
Croatian, Russian, French, Spanish,
German, Portuguese, Italian, Yiddish,
Swedish, Dutch, Norwegian, Hun
garian, Finnish. Polish, Rumanian,
and, of course Greek and Latin. He
lis also conversant with three artifi-
cial or so-called universal tongues.
One of them is Esperanto. another lido.
and the third is of his own invention.
He calls it "Ufono."
The man who in a life of 40 years
has familiarized himself with this for
midable array OF vocabularies says
that he doesn't care if he never learns
another language. It's no wonder he
feels that way. His attachments do
not wilt in the comparison with those
OF the most versatile linguist of the
18th century-the late Sir Richard
Burton. They are even within hailing
distance of those of the most re-
nowned of all past-masters of CONVEX
sational linguistics-the famous Cardi-
nal Mezzofanti.
The cardinal undoubtedly had prac-
teal conversance with more languages
and dialects than any other human
being who ever lived. He understood
and spoke So. Year after year he
addressed strangers who came to
Rome from the remotest regions of
the earth, in their native tongues. AL
most never did he meet foreigner
with whom he was unable to carry on
a conversation.
Yet even this amazing and seem
ingly miraculous facility was not the
full measure Of his requirements In
the languages he knew merely
from the study of books, and those in
which he possessed elementary knowl-
edge without attaining fluency, Car
dinal MERCHANTS linguistic repertoire
represented the enormous total of
more than hundred forms of speech.
To return to Mr.. Stevens, the
expert, like many an
other extraordinary scholar, never
went to college. Nor did he attain his
of tongues by foreign travel.
He has always resided in the United
States.
A man of this kind reminds one
Of Goldsmith's lines.

Don't Spoil Your Hair
BY Washing It

When you wash your hair, be careful
what you use Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali, which
is very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsihed CO.
coanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and
beats anything else all to pieces. You
can get this at any drug store, and a
few ounces will last the whole family
for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all
that is required. It makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle Of dust, dirt and
dandruff.

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Charter Oak Times: This paper
can offer its unqualified support to
Hoover, L,oWden or Wood. whichever
wins the nomination. These three
are clean, capable men of the proper
type for the place. They are not on
the crank list" like Borah and John
son, and they are not weaklings. All
are proven men.
Cedar Rapids Republican: The
presidential race is still no ones race,
or rather 1t is still everyone's race.
Rolfe Arrow: Personally we are
not looking for the millennium when
women vote, nor are we anticipating
anything worse than we have had.
Somehow we cling to the idea that
human nature is both male and fe-
male, and that human nature will con-
trol for while yet.
Davenport Times: When duty calls

wers Here That's why he has
voluntarily gone back to his military
duties, leaving his presidential hopes
to take care of themselves.
Sac City Sun: Lowden's defeat In
Michigan, his almost neglible vote in
Minnesota, and his defeat in South Da-
kota, where most vigorous campaign
was put up, does not suggest that he
would prove to be good vote-getter
and may actually have eliminated him
from probable nomination.
Waterloo Times-Tribune: No mat

ed he belonged to, he satisfied the poll

write Hiram Johnson's name on their
ballots lin Illinois1. when he had not
