THE EQUITY IN TROUSERS.

An eastern paper, offers an interesting suggestion
with reference to one phase Of prohibition law enforce.
ment. Everyone is familiar with the practice Of Selling
property of various kinds which has been used in CON
nection with the illegal handling Of liquor. A building
used for this purpose may be seized by the authorities.
An automobile used for the unlawful Transportation of
liquor may he conhscated, ard there is a ruling that even
where the car5has. been bought on credit and the major
portion of the purchase price remains unpaid, the property
is nevertheless forfeited. The eastern editor wants to
know the legal status OF the hip pocket which is used
for the concealment of a flask. May a lien be put on
the trousers which have been used for this purpose.
The writer suggests that it may hehoove clothiers who
sell on the installment plan to follow up their sales and
see to it that their property is not used to facilitate
violations OF the Volsted law, and thinks it may be we'll.
as a safety measure. to make trousers without hip pockets.
In order that things may be both safe and convenient,
why not have pockets made as separate articles of cloth
ing, so that in case Of detection no more than the pocket
and its contents need be sacrificed. This would be a
revival Of one of the customs of our grandmothers, who
often wore pockets under their skirts, the pocket being
secured by a string around the waist. OF course modern
woman knows nothing Of this practice except by hearsay.

MEMORIAL DAY.

1t may be that no conception Of the meaning Of
Memorial Day has come through the events Of recent
years but those events have brought a keeners and deeper
tendency toward a wider Observance of the day. Estab.
nshed Tor the purpose Of COMMUNICATING the services
OF those who gave up their lives in the Civil War, the
of the day was broadened because Of the
beauty and the appropriateness of the thought behind it
until 1t came to include expressions of love for all those
who had departed and the decoration Of their last resting
place with appropriate emblcm.. @.
The Great World War has brought in a new element.
The Civil War has become history. Most Of those who
Participated in it are gone. OF the great regiments that
once marched in Decoration Day paradcs only a few
strasslers are left. and most of those have reached an
age when they can no longer participate actively in the
aHalrs OF the world; but the men who were sent to take
part in the great war in Europe were Young and strong
and full Of life as their predecessors in the Civil War
mad been, and many thousands of those lie buried in the
fields OF France, or, equally giving up their lives in the
nations service, have found graves in the home land.
This brings much closer to the people of today this one
feature OF Memorial Day, and brings into greater prom
inence the thought Of service to the nation, and through
the nation, to humanity. ~ ~
The day will be observed as before by exercises in
loving memory Of private and personal friends, This
feature has in no manner been changed, but the effect
OF the great war has been to emphasize more strongly
the public service of. those who died while wearing the
uniform of their country.
AS it has always been, those who remain owe a duty
to each other, to posterity, and to the memory Of those
who have served and passed on. These missing ones are
beyond our power and influence. W. can do nothing tor
tnen' but In their solemn presence, We can as Lincoln
said "consecrate ourselves anew to the service Of our
feiiownnen' and We can serve as they have done by per-
forming consc1entiously the duties which present them
selves to us from day to day. These duties are Immediate
and pressing, many of them relating TO the conduct Of
our public affairs, and no man can neglect or ignore
duties Of this character without doing dishonor to the
dead. The great war has brought to US a better under.
standing Of the meaning Of some Of these things. and it is
our part 10 to act that the great work in which our now
missing friends assisted, shall be carried on faithfully and
loyalty by US.

".
David passed out Of the little gar
den, crossed the strip Of park, and,
taking the wheel, drove slowly
round by the longer route to Broom
leys. He passed before the front OF
the Abbey-a mansion Of the dead,
with row after row of closed blinds,
masses of smokeless chimneys, and
patches of weeds growing thick in the
great sweep before the house. Even
with its air Of pitiless desertion, its
severe, semi-eccleNastical outline, its
ruined cloisters empty to the sky on
one wing. it's unbroken and gloomy
silence, the place had it's atmos-
phere. David slackened the speed OF
his car. paused for a moment and
looked back at the little creeper-cov-
cred cottage on the other side OF the
n1ost. So those two had faced one
another through the years-the 4b-
bey,s silent. magnificent. historical,
with all the placid majesty of its
countless rows of windows; its chapel,
where Mandeleys for generations had
been christencd and buried-at its
gates the little cottage, whose garden
was filled with spring flowers. and
from whose single stack of chimneys
the smoke curled upwards. Even
while he watched, Richard Won't
stood there upon the threshold with
la great book under his arm.
David shivered a little as he threw
in the clutch, passed on round the
back of the building and through the
iron gates Of the ancient dover house.
He felt a little sigh Of relief as he
pulled up in front of the long. Grey
house, in front Of which Sylvia
Laycey was waiting to receive him.
She waved her hand gaily and looked
with admiration at the car.
They are all here, Mr.. THAN" she
exclaimed--"Mr. Merridrew and ia
Their and your own builder. Come

David descended almost blithely
from his car. He was back again in

is THE COUNTRY TOO BIG?

Is the United States too big. geographically, and too
compact? Sometimes it seems so. The commercial
supremacy of Great Britain in the past has been due
very largely to her insular position. This insular1ty
has given her a measure of security which most other
great nations have not possessed, but 1t has facilitated
commerce In q marked degree. The island is small and
its coast line irregular. No farm or village in it is dis
tant more than a few miles from the sea. Its railroads
are necessarily short, and much Of its domestic tramc
is carried by water. If one wishes to so from London
to Glasgow. or If he has urgent freight shipments to
he uses the railroad. But if he has to ship freight
which will stand a short delay, he can ship by water
and be sure Of the arrival Of his goods within a few
days
In the United States most of the traffic must be by
rail, the entire distance. We have numerous and very
long railroads. but, while We have potential waterways
of great Importance, their development has not kept
pace with our progress in other directions. If we had
q chain of inland lakes in the Mississippi valley some-
what similar to the Gr.at Lakes system, our, ,transpor-
tation problems would be very different and much Sim
pier. Our land shipments would be much shorter, and
q very large proportion Of our domestic commerce would
be carried on by means Of the chain of lakes and the
ocean. KS ~ @
In the Rhine We have an. example Of what an in.
land waterway can do for the commerce Of 4 nation,
France is Less &dvantAgeously situated. but she, too, has
her great river system which is Of immense value. ia
pan. with . population two-thirds the size Of our own,
has her inland sea running down the center Of her Il.
land, . fact which is Of great advantage to her.
We are not likely to change the Geography OF our
country greatly, but we can do much to avail Ourselves
Of the facilities which exist. Some day the MiAstlstppi
and Its tributaries Will be brought again into service
In an adequate way, and scnne day the Great Lakes Will
b, for tfsnsportation purposes, q part Of the ocean.

PROSPERITY AND FORREST pRorEor1oN.

Forest fires in the United States annually destroy
more than 2 billion feet of timber, or material enough
70 build a 5-room frame house every 100 feet on both
sides of q road extending from New York to Chicago,
according to the Forest Service, United States Depart
rnent of Agriculture. With four people to a house, these
100000 or more buildings would provide a home for
nearly one-fourth our yearly increase in populations
number sufficient to populate a new city each year the
size of Cincinnati. New. Orleans, Minneapolis, Kansas
City, Mo-, or Seattle.
More than 10000 forest fires have occurred in the
Cnlted states during the past five years, so per cent of
which were due to human agencies and therefore pre-
ventabe. These CONGREGATIONS burned over Sc, ass, 900
acrcs-an area greater than that included within the
states OF OHIO and Pennsylvania, and destroyed $780,
100000 worth Of timber and property. If this needless
waste were stopped and the material thus saved into
houses, the various business interests concerned in build
ing construction, such as lumber dealers. carpenters,
masons, and supply houses. would, it is estimated, ben
Bankers and real estate dealers would also profit through
of an additional $500, 600, 900. Forest fires are therefore
of vital concern to. not only the everyday citizens but to
every business man and laborer.s
Forest protection goes hand in hand with national
prosperity. Next to food and clothing, weed Is the
most Indispensable product Of nature. Without wood
there can be no agriculture, no manufacture, no COM
MERGE. Forest fires destroy life and property, impover-
lsh the soil, drive away animal life, cause floods and
drought. and make waste the Fairgrounds of the people.
PRESIDENT Harding, at the request Of the Forest Service,
proclaimed last week as Forest Protection Week in
order that the present unnecessary waste of the timber
resources OF the country and the serious condition Of our
forests may be brought widely to public notice, and its
local observance took place in all parts of the country.
