pens it nourishes itself and becomes
more a mental habit.
Quite often we hear folks say:
IF I'd just stopped to think" O
yes, all would be different, IL one
just stopped to think. But one does
MT and finally one can't.
If we should get to carrying one
hand in pocket all the time uncon-
sciously until it began to wither and
grow useless there is no doubt about
what we should do. We'd get busy
and exercise it, and make it perform
healthy little duties over and ocer
till it regained its natural proficiency.
But, unfortunately, our minds are
not so open to view. We are tender
on that subject. We want to conceal
anything that seems to be mental
weakness. We want to appear as
strong minded, above all else, and
we would rather weaken our minds
ourselves than let others see trifi-
ing weakness in them.
We are not given our powers of
mind at the beginning for a lifetime
of use. Thinking is an acquired tai
ent. 1t is just as necessary to cult
vate and develop thinking habits as
it is to take care of our bodies. If
something would only give us a pain
in the brain every time we disobeyed
natures good laws regarding concen-
tration we might all be better think
ers, and at least be able to think
about what we are doing while doing
it and escape the many little foolish
blunders that fill our days and
worry our nights.-F. C. K.

SAYING THE WRONG
THING

Did you ever start to say some
thing to somebody and afterwards
find that you used the wrong word
and made an enemy? Did you ever
Ptry for days and nights to think Of
a word that just refused to come?
Or in writing letters do you quite
often find it necessary to write over
word to get it spelled intelligibly,
or scratch out false syllable at the
end of a perfectly familiar word?
Did you ever sit down to sign your
name in full on some document, and
then 60 right ahead and sign with
initials only for first and middle
names?
Ever try to introduce an old friend
and have to ask his or her name be-
fore proceeding?
These embarrassing accidents are
always happening to most of us, and
outside of a momentary impotence
with our mental machinery we don't
give much thought to the trouble.
Failure to write or say the thing
we mean is simply failure of con-
centration. No great piece Of work
was ever accomplished without CEN
tering the mind singly on one topic.
Great orators, great artists, great
business men, great anything, sue
coed as a result of thought concen-
tration.
Every little slip, when you do the
thing you do not intend, is failure
at concentration. Every time it hap

CLAIMS GERMANY
IS GOING TO DOGS
Berlin Banker Says His
Country Is Going
to Bow-wows
(By Universal Service)

BERLIN.-"We are going to the
damnation bow-wows, my dear sir,
and the rest of Europe will go with
us, though that is poor consolation
for u.s."
So stated Arthur Won Gwinner,
Germany's leading banker, for many
years head of the Deutsche bank,
from which he resigned only recent
ly.
Herr Gwinner is just back from a
rest cure in Switzerland.
France is determined upon the
humiliation of Germany as an eco
nomic as we'll as a political power.
| Unless France is hindered in this
program by England and America
the French will succeed, especially
if England looks upon that aim with
tolerant indifference.
"The European equilibrium rests
upon three main pillars-America
England and Germany. If one of
these legs is kicked away, the table
is bound to turn over"
Asked why the economic author
tiles of the world did not realize
that, Herr Gwinner said:
when insanity is an epidemic,
the few sane are regarded as the
crazy ones"
Herr Gwinner insisted that the
direction in which Germany is being
pushed will be followed by the 9TH
er powers.
Relatively speaking" he said,
the exchange value of the pound
sterling is that of what the German
mark was in October, 1918. The
French franc today is what the Ger
man mark was in June and July,
1919. And the Italian lire is now
what the mark was in October, 1917.
"The mark is steering in the d.
rection Of the Austrian crown, but
the others cannot cut loose, they
must follow where we are leading,
under their compelling directions"
The famous banker was asked
whether in the circumstances he
could blame America for not wishing
to sink more money in Europe.
Perhaps one cannot blame her."
he replied, "but I can say she is
making a mistake. The Americans
were badly swindled in this war, but
it was not Germany who did the
swindling."
"The European economic struct-
ure-and that includes us-cannot
be made we'll without the finance

back or else by his God who made
him as he is.
The plain fact is that altho luck
fits into the game here and there
every man performs such services
for the world as he is consistently
capable of getting away with. There
is some job that every man finally
comes down to or gets up to and,
satisfied or grumbling, he goes thru
with it.
The greatest fields for personal en-
deavor today are commercial busi-
ness and agricultural business.
Father knows it, everybody knows
it, Yet only here and there you find
a school that gives the pupils con-
nection between school work as it
is and life work as it will be.
Our school system is based upon
the principle that every student
ought to go clear thru to college.
Grade school work is but a prepare
ton for high school and high school
merely gets the student ready for
college.
Only an insignificant fraction Of
the children who attend grade
schools ever get to college, and many
do not even go thru high school. And
yet the system goes right on working
for those who finish everything. The
vast majority of high school students
never 60 thru college and they spend
their time preparing for college
work instead of for life work.
American bushes men 60 along
training their young persons fresh
from high school, and seem to be-
lieve that it is the perfectly natural
thing. Hardly do they complain. so
used are they to the idea that bust
ness has no place in the school cur
riculum.
This accounts for the marvellous
development of business colleges
that have sprung up everywhere, and
in the east, schools of commerce.
where the more complete subjects
of trade are taken up, such as bank
ing, credit, organization and sales
manship.
1t costs the business men of
town a fixed and quite considera-
BILE sum of money every year for the
training of new help, mostly in the
form of high school persons who do
not know ledger from a day book,
and who think that personal check
is the same as money.
Why all this emphasis on a few
who are permitted to get all the
schooling offered? Why should
there not be business college in
every town just as large in COMPARE
son to the present preparatory
schools as is the number of students
who leave school and enter business
to those who remain at school?
The best way to start a business
college is to start it, The business
men of Blackfoot could afford to or
ganize night classes for all who
would attend and study the various
phases of modern trade. The bene-
fits would flow back to them.

RURAL SCHOOL CHANGED

NEW YORK CITY.-Teacher short
age occasioned by the war is being
rapidly overcome in Ohio, where
county and state normal schools re-
port prospective increases in attend
ance of so to 100 per cent, or even
greater, for next year. This has been
brought about by the simple eXpedi-
ent of making the profession of
teaching one worth while. Under the
reorganization of the state school sys-
TEN effective during the three terms
of James NJ Cox as Governor, sal
aries of teachers in the last six years
have been increased from a minimum
of $40 a month to a statutory mini
mum OF $500 a year.
How the antiquated rural school
system of Ohio was revitalized by
comprehensive legislation which aim
ed to save the farm as an institu-
ton by bringing to the children on
the farm more advantages of modern
life, is related in the Democratic
Campaign Textbook, which will be

quarters, Grand Central Palace, New

NEW COMMAND
FOR MARINE CORPS

In establishing the Department of
the Pacific, United States Marine
Corps" by a Navy Department gem
eral order signed August 81, marine
corps command has been set up such
as never has existed before. To a GER
tain extent it represents decentraliza-
ton of activities from the headquar-
ters of the corps.
AS heretofore announced, Brighten.
George Barnett, who completed. on
August 81, two months leave of alb
sence following his relief from duty
as commandant of the marine corps,
has been assigned to command the
new department, with headquarters at
San Francisco. The department will
include the marine corps stations at
Bremerton, Wash; Mare Island and
San Diego, Calf, and Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii, and also certain offices and
detachments. The commander of the
department will have @on his staff Col.
Albert S. McLemOre, in charge of the
adjutant and inspectors Office; Lieut.
Col. Hugh Matthews, in charge of the
depot of supplies, and Capt. r. r.
Wright, in charge of the marine pay
office, all of which already are estab-
'ished at San Francisco. First Lieuts
Clifton B. Gates and Charles l. Muir,
ray, who served as aid-de-camp to
Gen Barnett at the headquarters of
the corps, will go with him to San
Francisco in the same capacity.
Under the direction of the com
mandant of the corps, the department
commander will be responsible for the
general efficiency and discipline of the
troops in his department, he will fur
nish detachments for vessels of the
navy in that locality and cause va
cancies in such detachments to be
filled, and he will exercise general
supervision of all expenditures and
supplies needed for the maintenance
Of the department.
The nearest approach to such a sys-
tenn in the marine corps heretofore,
perhaps, was the maintenance, until a
few weeks ago. of the headquarters of
-
at Philadelphia. However, that was
not territorial command, and the
commander of the force did not issue
orders for movement of officers and
troops within a department, furnish
or cause vacancies in such detach-
ments to be filled, as will the COM
mander of the new department.
Altogether, Gen. Barnett will have
the most important and responsible
position in the marine corps, except
that of commandant of the corps.
There is considerable speculation a.
to whether a similar command, under
an officer having similar functions.
will be established to embrace marine
corp posts on the Atlantic coast. 1t
is understood that such a project is
under consideration

lined with cherry trees, under which
the street cars pass as through a
tunnel Of flowers in the cherry sea-
son, which is from April l to

cially the endless throngs Of pretty
children in their vari-colored ktmonos,

never to be forgotten. As evening
draws on the effects of the days
sake drinking begin to appear, and.
while the women and children COM

seen still doing on the benches or
engaged in staggering efforts to
keep up with their families. In

has been compared to the cherry
blossom, as may be seen from the
ancient hokku verse or proverb,
which reads: "As the cherry is first
among flowers, so the bushi is first
among men" This means that as
the cherry is ready to die when the
