The Young Lady Communists
RY OR. FRANK CRANE lCopyright, 1921. by Frank Crane)

You never realize how utterly absurd and American all this Social -Proetariat-C Glass Revolt stuff is till you get into Europe where it be- longs.
 I am in Europe Here is where they wrote it. Class is the worlds middle here. They breathe it. The big bugs top and the little bugs beneath both take it seriously.
 Apd to an American brought up in the Middle West it is just funny He hardly imagine what the devil they are making such stew about
 But, then, these people for generations have been awed by the little tin gods of arstocracy Kaisers have struted before them Cars have terrified them Kings Dukes, Counts, Lord High Muckamucks and Pooh Bans have lived off of them and kicked them around and you cannot blame them for mutterng and plotting and chuckng occasional friendly bomb into the Paais Royal.
 But how they think they can import that sort of Limburger Cheese rebellion idea into the U s. A. and sell it. is too much for me to understand.
 For instance, have just been reading poster got out by The National Federation of Young Lady Com m1nists" Doubtless, Clement Vautel observes there are first, second and third degrees of youth among ladies And this particular piece of propaganda fire works says, among other things:
 Against bourgeois militarism!
 Against pacifism!
 "For arming the proletariat!
 These young ladies are about consistent you might expect They will have nothing to do with paci- sm any sort by anybody, from Jesus Christ to Victor Hugo. bas pacifism

 All department store girls would carry bombs to blow up fat milonares who snub them.
 Factory hands would stack their guns before going to work and insist hour off every afternoon practice shooting grocer bankers lawyers writers and other bourgeois
 All this doubtless appeals to youth. Boys all like to play soldier and girls all love the military. When young the present I most wanted for Christmas something could shoot off. So down with pacifism! And down with miltarism, that is, bourgeois mtarism meaning police and regu- lar soldiers.
 And long live comic opera and the revolution and the proletariat!

Surely Booming Back"

Getting back to normal after the wartime de- bauch of wholesale expenditure without thought of economy, of unheard-of high prices and correspond ing high wages is slow job. but the evidence con- tnues to come in that the country is steadily turning to general prosperity. There great changes from day to day. but there are numerous signs that add encouragement and assurance to the fact that business is coming back"
 In The Republican Sunday morning there ap- peared the result of nationwide survey of business conditions which should make every reader confident of the future Of the country and should spur him do part bringing back prosperity. the coming of which will be hastened by the degree of team work of all the people. This survey covered many industries and many sections. It gave ndisputable of improvement in all lines. of greater factory and mill operation and of less employ ment Better times coming, not in any single or any few lines. but in all branches of business
 The report of the Federal Reserve board for Sep tember was a distinctly optimistic one. Wholesale improvement was found in almost every section. with greater volume of money in circulation and correspondingy greater ability for and in dividuals to Iquidate their accounts. This welcome news was not manufactured for propaganda purposes. It not mere "boosting' conservative. From every direction such words pf confidence optimism and all the country are appearing the signs of slow and cautious, but steady and certain revival of good business and return to general prosperity.
 It is time now to take off the blue spetacles and to smile.

THE STERN SPORT OF BUS RIDING

a rapid gait. Just as you are pre- pairing to signal for it to stop, how ever, the huge red eye in the traffic tower at Firty-second street changes to green, and the bus comes to a sudden standstill at the corner above at Forty-fifth street. Fearing that the one lone seat will be grabbed by some one else, you dash madly up to Forty-fifth street, only to see the huge green eye in the traffic tower change back to red and the bus start forward again just as you are in the middle Of the block.
 While such experiences are hard on the disposition and may help to explain why New Workers have a reputation for being churlish, even so this undignified pursuit of a bus is far better than taking chance at one of the bus terminals. Here long. weary lines of bus riders are parked behind rope and an iron sign stating that such -and-such a bus stops there. As each bus draws up, the crowd surges forward, showing, jostling and carrying it's front ranks before it as a strong wave sweeps a surf bather to the shore. Clothing is torn, children bruised and many new patients are created for the city's chiropodists. At last, however, you find yourself mounting the first two steps of the bus. ascending the small, iron circular staircase which leads to the upper deck and sinking Imply into vacant seat. The whole process is purely in voluntary.
 Once the bus gets on its way, all is serene, while the bus riders recover their breath nurse their wounds and gradually revive in the fresh air. The men light their pipes and cigars, ana If 1t is evening, the girls light thelr cigarettes. Hats are removed by both sexes, and the children are made com fortable in case they wish to take nap.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3--Dur1ng the hot summer days in New York the most popular outdoor sport is bus riding. The wealthy minority have their golf and their tennis and their private motor cars, but the great mass get their outdoor exercise and recrea- tion through the bus.
 The bus ride through the crowded hours of the evening may include running, balancing and deep breath ing, while it never fails to provide a regular osteopathic massage. Once in his favorite seat on the upper deck of the huge, ungainly vehicle, the bus rider is jerl1ed gently but firmly back and forth from side to side until every tiny bone in his spinal column has come into violent contact with the back of the seat, thus stimulating his circulation and arousing his liver to protesting action. But by far the most strenuous part of the sport con- sists in catching the bus.
 Although the Fifth Avenue Bus company is building buses as fast as it can and recently turned out four new ones in one week, and while every available bus, whether it be aged, sick, decrepit, afflicted with palsy or not, is being operated, still there are not nearly enough buses to accommodate the tremendous summer crowd. Thus, while the sport of bus riding is at the height of its popularity, the competition among bus riders is fierce and even frenzied.
 In winter, when there are large chunks of ice in the Hudson and Riverside drive is draped in silver instead of green, the buses are tame creatures and may be captured with the mere stretching forth of hand Few people care to sit on the upper deck and freeze to death. But in the summer open season they are often wild and must be approached with strategy and caution.
 Suppose, for instance, you select a nice hot Sunday night for your bus ride. You want to go up Riverside drive, of course-and so does every body else. All the Nos. and buses headed in that direction are filled The only thing for you to do, there fore, is to take downtown bus, ride all the way to the end of the line al Washington square and then hold tightly to your seat while it turns around and goes back uptown.

BertonBraleys Daily Poem 'WATCHFORIT~

If you miss a train trolley car
 It's more or less of an aggravation, But it isn't tragic loss by far.
 And so, sober consideration, Although the thought of your slowness smarts
 You'll take your luck with pleasant smile And say, the that you missed departs
 ''Theren be another after awhle." If you've missed a chance in a business way
 Don't face the future with gloomy glances, For fortune frequently, day by day,
 Gives other lunches and other chances; If you fail in getting the girl you sought
 Don't take the thing in a tragic style Console yourself with this cosmic thought
 ''There'n be another after awhie!" It's well to get on the proper train,
 To take your chances to get your girl But foolish indeed to rack your brain
 With what you've missed in the busy whirl; For if what the good luck says is true,
 Why, after time of test and trial, If life doesn't prove good to you Theru be another after awhile
