prosperity hinges on League re-
suit" II it does, this country Is
dependent on Europe. That will
be news to the people that live
here. The general opinion is that
EUROPE DEPENDS ON AMER
ICA. And that the Peace League
is a scheme to get everything pos
sible out of America, men and
money especially.
IL Mr.. Cox is right and this
country does depend on Europe,
the people promptly ought to know
il, although the knowledge will not
please them. One thing is sure:
The League of Nations would
make this country dependent on
Europe and European decisions.
"The champion COW comes back"
Ladies, please read that line with
attention. The cows name is
Sophie 10th. Sophie is fifteen.and-
a-half years old. VERY old for a
COW. A cow aged fifteen-and-a-
half is as old at least as a woman
aged sixty-five.
In old age Sophie is reverently
greeted as "the champion butter
COW of the world" Her ninth Of
fetal record amazes everybody.
Ordinarily, at the age of fifteen
and-a-half, a COW becomes the prey
of somebody that changes her
stringy meat into sausages.
Sophie in her old age is a cham
pion, tenderly cared for, still as
good as ever, because she has had
the right care, the right food, the
right TREATMENT. The farmer
that managed her did not push her
aside in favor of some younger
heifer a little more lively and
sprightly.
Sophie in hot weather had an
electric fan over her back to keep
the flies away and make her COM
Portable.
Sophie had a comfortable bed Of
straw always. And she lived in a
wide box stall where she could
move about, comfortably, not in a
little narrow stall such as ordi-
nary cows endure with their necks.
held tight in yoke.
Sophie was not pushed to the
background in favor Of some
sprightly young heifer. Sophie
was not humiliated by the discov-
cry that few gray hairs in her
head cant that nobody paid any
more attention to her,
Sophie retained all her good
qualities and got better as she got
older. Women do the same, but
men don't know it..
When men are sufficiently civ
ilized to treat women rs well and
as intelligently as the dairyman
treated Sophie this will be . bet
Perhaps, women being able to
vote now, the better world will
come sooner than it would have
done under old conditions.
"Three Soviet Divisions Ami
hilated," says the cablegram from
Warsaw. Unfortunately for the
hopes of those that expect to con-
quer Russia, and collect on billions
of bonds that Lenin repudiated,
there are many divisions where
those three came from.
One interesting point in the Pol
ish- Russian war, until now so sue
cessful for Russia, is the fact that
the Russians have as military
chief and minister of war Trotzky,
a Jew. Centuries have passed
since a member of the Jewish race
commanded important armies.
Those who think that Jews can
not fight or direct fighting know
little about Jews and know moth
ing about Maccabees.
OF all the worlds fighting gen.
erals, one of the very greatest,
miracle of courage, endurance, and
intelligence was Hannibal, the
Carthaginian. And he was of
Semitic blood.
About Japan and HER scheme
for making the Peace League a
joke, news comes through the
Evening Post, owned by Mr.. La
mont, OF Morgan W 70. IL says
that Japan is SPENDING HALF
OF ALL HER TOTAL INCOME
preparing for war, increasing her
fleet, her supply Of big cannon,
her fighting machinery generally.
Mr.. Lamont, of Morgan & Co.,
who owns the Evening Post, and
who, give high finance its due, has
improved that newspaper by about
one hundred per cent, is just back
from a trip to Japan.
He went there in the INTEREST
OF MORGAN & CO; he went there
to get business, of course; he prob
ably got it. You may rely upon
the accuracy Of his statement that
Japan is spending half her income
to make herself more dangerous
to her neighbors, which means
THE UNITED STATES.
That piece of news ought to in
terest Americans and make them
realize that instead of squander-
ing their energies in slushy senti-
mentality abroad, they should con-
serve them for the day when they
may need them at home.
