The Truth About Sov;et;sn,

most of the disting ushed and men
tally balanced radicals who visit Russia with
high hopes of seeing fairly just if not Uto-
plan order of things, return in bitter disil-
lusionment. Hear the testimony of Herr

Gently came home from a sojourn in a Boil
shevist colony near Moscow.
"Sovietism," he reports, sis no form of
government and no good to anybody" The
Germans in the colony, ardent though they
were to join it, are desperately eager to get
out. "Idleness, sickness and starvation are
prevalent" Instead of brotherliness there
is pickering, and instead of glorious equal
ity'' dreary dragging out of mediocre lives.
To cap the wretchedness of it all, "The bread
is indigestible. and pound of butter absorbs

Similarly disappointing were the impress

This is the prospect as seen by officials

contrast with earlier appearances AS a re-
suit OF industrial suspensions during the
summer, multitudes were thrown out of
jobs-twelve thousand in the Cleveland dis
trlct' for example-ffteen thousand in
Maine, and twelve thousand on the Penn
sylvanla railroad. In the building trades as
well there was considerable though not
extensive unemployment in consequence of
curtallment of operations, which was as
crlDed TO d1scouras ing costs of material and
labor. For the most part, however these
conditions were sporadic rather than gen
eral, and In notable instances they are dis
appearing, or are being counteracted IT
seems, for example, that the twelve thou
sand men dismissed from the Pennsylvania
railroad are being absorbed by Western
lines; some of the industries which sus-
pended IN the summer are resuming; and
f1nally there are many worthwhile Jobs
though not to the liking of lazybones. which

is, according to the gist of reports from
the Labor Departments field agents through

is hardly appreciated as it should be, be-
cause the extraordinary demands of the wal
period put the whole industrial order OF
things into unprecedentedly high gear. But
look back to the jobless Defenders and
hungry Januaries of pre-war times, when il
was not infrequent for tens of thousands

L;gn;te IN Lieu of Coal

IF all proves true that is claimed for a re-
mite, we may yet find happy deliverance
from the jaws of purse-devouring coal prices.
Ignite, of which there are vast deposits in
the United States is partly carbonized vege-
table matter having fuel value intermedi-
ate between peat and coal. Because Of its
crum bliness and it's large content of SCOT and
dirt, this substance hitherto has been but
sparsely used for producing heat and power.
It seems, however, that Mr.. Roy N. Buell. of
San Francisco, has perfected a method of
eliminating these Objectionable qualities so
that the residue is fuel of the highest
grade
In it's account of this interesting develop
ment, the United States Consular Report sets
forth that the Buell. method purges with lig-
mite of SCOT and other undesirable matter by
suction, and reduces the moisture anywhere
from twenty-five to forty per cent. Still
more important, under an exhaustive test
the boiler efficiency of the fuel was eighty
per cent and the furnace efficiency seventy
eight per cent" That conservative men who
have looked into the process are impressed
by it's commercial as we'll as scientific i'm
port is indicated by the fact that an Austria
liam syndicate has established at Victoria an

BELIEVE NOTHING YOU
CANNOT USE
By DR.. Frank Crane


There has been a deal Of talk disputatious
about what to believe.
Extremists on one side have commended
that we should believe nothing we cannot
prove, that we should stick to demonstrable
facts
One the other hand extremists have gone
SO far as to assert that there is no virtue
at all believing what we can prove, but that
the saving faith is in what we cannot prove,
or even comprehend. Still further, that the
greatest credit should go to those who "be-
lieVe because it is impossible
Both extremes are wrong, and for the
same reason: to wit, that they mistake the
nature of faith and it's purpose.
This is the nature of faith: that we shall
thus be enabled to use these forces.
Hence the way out of the diciculty, the true
and practical rule, is this to believe only
what we can use.
Not only what we can prove. We can use
many things we cannot prove.
AS for those things that are of no use
would best hang them up''-that is
leave them as open and unsettled questions
If at any time we can use them, we can
take them down and believe them. So long
as we cannot use them, they make no mat
ter Let them alone.
For instance, take one article that under
lies all creeds of decent folk, that the forces
of Good are stronger than those of Evil
IQlS means LndC OOu is SOOu, IudI Cne
universe is so ordered that goodness brings
happiness, and that it never pays to do
wrong.
This is entirely disable. 1t cleans the
mind, strengthens the will, gives health to
the emotions and induces contentment. 1t
actually produces more human satisfactions
than money, fame or anything else men
strive for.
Hence it is sound to believe it.
Take, on the contrary, some such question
as whether Jonah was swallowed by the
whale, or the location of heaven, or the issue
between the Homoousians and the Homoiou-
SLAMS. These are matters that cannot con-
ceivably affect ones growth or welfare in
any way.
Then why bother?, Neither believe nor
disbelieve them. Leave them for those who
have the leisure and the inclination to argue
The credo that our dead live on undenia-
bly, ennobles and invigorates our life. 1t is
disable. Hence we believe it.
Most of the non-usable questions wither
and die after a while. They are neither
proved nor disproved. People simply get
tired of them.
The disable elements of creed live on for
ever. The conviction of immortality, for ex-
ample, is stronger now than five thousand
years ago.
1t has never been proved as we prove a
chemical fact, nor disproved, and never
will be.
But it will be believed as long as it con-
tinues to feed human beings with idealism
heroism and beauty.
With this simple rule, therefore, you car
find the essentials of your creed. The rest
you can let alone.
Solomon was a pessimist because he be-
leved so many things he did not use. Jesus
was an optimist because He used all He be-
lieved.

ENCOURAGE YOUR CHILD
BY II. AddingtOn Bruce

you have a child who is by no means
Y doing so we'll in school as you would

school does he keep up with other children.
He is, in fact, somewhat stupid at his books
and somewhat awkward in his movements.
This you regretfully acknowledge to yourself.
And you feel poignantly his evident infe-
riority.
But however poignantly you may feel it,
above all things try to prevent your cnlld

His stupidity may be only passing phase.

other who lasting frame.
And the awkwardness you deplore may be
but a transient weakness in motor control
out of which your boy will grow, or which
he can be helped to overcome by careful
training.
If however, consciousness of his present
stupidity and awkwardness is forcibly i'm
pressed upon his mind the likelihood OF his
becoming other than stupid and awkward is
apprecably lessened. Nay, the Likelihood
then is that he will forever remain both stu
Did and awkward.
For. forced to recognize himself as in
ferior, he will despair of ever being anything
else. Self-confidence, initiative, creative eff
,ort will be paralyzed in him.
Still worse, bitter sentiments may be en-
,ndled in his heart, making him an anti
c:al being, SO that all his life he will get
- hadlv with his fellow men.
Manifestly, this will sorely handicap him
in the earning of a living. 1t may even
make him criminal. Or, depending on the
circumstances of his life, it may cause him
to break down nervously, perhaps mentally
