Today's Talk
By George Matthew Adams
TO EARN

Appreciation is far greater than
possession.
Possession may come instantly,
through gift or inheritance or luck.
But appreciation can come only with
the requirement Of knowledge, under
standing and experience. For the more
Intelligent you are, and the deeper you
look into peoples feelings, and the
wider your observation and travel,
the greater is your appreciation.
To earn Is to appreciate.
Emerson once said that the strong
est man on earth is the man who
stands most alone" But no man could
stand alone wiwthout having earned
the ability to do so. You can't teach
a man bravery, initiative, independ-
ence and originality. These are traits
that man must pick out of his own
makeup and develop himself-and he
has to earn every step of progress
and success.
So that, in itself, to earn is really a
quality Of heroism.
The only worth while people in the
world are the earners. And the earn
ings of man are not to be measured
according to the total amount of
assets in money or estates he has, but
in the quality of usefulness which he
develops.
Mere money-earning is cheap and
sordid. But to earn things like graft
tude for kindness, appreciation of
thoughtfulness and service rendered,
the good will and applause of those
whom you have never met-what more
splendid requirements, what finer
wealth?
! Don't go after money. or even fame
or honors that only hold for a little
while. Earn something that you can
give away!

 The Daily News contends:
 "A new world order from whict America, or for that matter Ger many or Russia or any considera ble fraction of mankind is excluded is foredoomed to failure"
 The newspapers urge that it ie advisable to press on with the con struction of the league. even in tho event that America determines to re- main outside because "there is rec sonable hope that once the league f in being, this attitude will ultimate ly become impossible."
 Referring, like other journals, tc political conflicts in America rt garding the league and the Versaillee treaty, the Chronicle says:
