The evident encouragement this

BETTER CONDITIONS MUST
PREVAIL

Just a minute for consideration.
England and France are not involved
in a serious quarrel. The United
States is not at war with Japan.
WEAKNESS of strife is very pro-
nounced in most of the world, even in
places where it yet endures. The coal
strike in England is waning most of
those striking in this country wish
they weren't The railroad situation
has improved; it is pretty well estab-
lished as a fact that for the present
the government isn't under compul-
sion to buy the roads and give them
to the wage brotherhoods together
with duly signed and sealed agree
ment for the employees to run them as
they please and Uncle Sam stand the
bills. We've escaped that much.
Out of all this and diverse and
sundry things aren't few grains of
comfort to be found? Surely! Why,
even the premier of France expresses
confidence in the government of Ger
many to the extent of saying in effect
that it wishes to do what is right
about the Silesian muddle. Ger
many's acceptance of reparation
terms is considered by those best ac-
quainted with the world situation as

that has occurred since the war Ger
many has got to get to work. The
rest of the world has got to get to
work to compete with her. Getting
to work is soon to be quite the thing
to do.
At last confidence is in sight and
not in the sole possession of the con
f1dence" men. That is something to
carefully consider. Remember, con-
fidence seems to have been one of the
things lots of people were lust out
Of" The wholesaler had no confidence
the buyer would not cancel the con-

dollars will buy. We've simply got to
have more houses. we've got to have
food and clothing as long as we have
the wherewithal-and we've got to

as in ourselves.

Forevermore

Forevernnore
I kissed my love a last good-by
For ever and for aye;
The world stood still, and in the SKY
The stars paused on their way.
And when at length she closed the
door
My heart was but a tomb:
Our parting was forevermore-
Until the dawn of doom.
And as I stood in bitter doubt
! turned away, and then
/ rang the bell and called her out
And said good-by again.
