An interesting article in the Saturday
Evening Post by Kenneth L. Roberts
with the caption "Poland for Patriot.
ism" gives an interesting picture of the
present state of that country and of the
other small nations of central Europe.
He says they are all starving and Amer
ica should help to feed them, but by all
means to avoid any responsibility in at
tempting to settle disputes between a
hundred small "nationalties" who have
hated and quarreled with each other for
centuries, and that he has no: found a

This writer has never been enthusias-
tically in favor of woman suffrage, most
ly on the ground that suffrage is far
more of u responsibility than privilege.
We believed that women had enough
responsibility without voting and that
rs a sex they lacked 70 privileges that
they could not easily obtain without the

IA man is known by the company he
keeps" is not fair pro. erb in political
circles. In fact even church circles

the price of his products, and the hired
man" pay the increase, otherwise known
as H. G. L. "Round and round she

The railway unions are practically
having strike against each other. A
part have gone on strike without the
sonsedt of the officers of the national or
CARNATIONS and the latter are providing
"strike breakers" to take the places of
the striking "outlaws.'' This is an illus.
tration of what may happen when all of
us are enrolled in some sort of union.
Then it will be union vs.. union, one
striking against another in a sort of
civil war, "unlonists vs.. rebels" By
the way, if capitalists, corporations, big
business, and the rest of the monied
class as claimed by some were organized
Into unions and ss such used their

ist class could stand 1t much the longest
