y START AT DISARMAMENT.

The way to disarm, as a practical New
York paper remarks is to disarm. The
way to cut down the cost of armament
is to cut down the cost of armament
not in the indefinite future, but in the
living present.
Great Britain has adopted this simple
practical policy, making an immediate
cut of 30 per cent in its army and navy
budgets for next year. This move is
precisely in line with Senator Borah's
plan for a 30 per cent reduction in
new naval construction for the next five
wears by triple agreement on the part
OF America, Great Britain and Japan. --
There is every indication that Britain
would gladly extend this economical pol
icy to cover the proposed five-year per-
iOd. Utteranccs in Japan suggest that
that country would welcome a similar
move, if japanese statesmen were per
suaded that they could take it safely.
They are simply afraid of American
armament. Everything hinges on the
United States. Our government can de
termine the armament policy of these
three powers. and then by inevitable
consequence the policy of the other big
powers and all the little ones.
Such work as this was expected of
the league of nations. The league has
felt it useless to take up the disarma-
ment question without the cooperation
of the United States. Whether or not
this country is going to join the league.
there is no need to wait
The main thing is to make a start at
disarmament, and the United States can
make that start now, without any dam
ger to itself, thereby easing the burden
of the whole world and saving itself a
heap of money.

Scarcer IN Hens Teeth.

After trying in vain for months to get

one day with find a-house-or-die look
on his face. He wandered about all day
without being successful, until at last his

he said, in utter despair, "hOw tempting

plunge in and end it all. Suddenly he
heard a splash and, looking around. saw
his friend Green struggling in the water.
Without attempting to save him he
rushed off to the rental agency. Quick -
he gasped. Green has fallen in the river.

DISPLAY AND CRIME.

1t would be hard to say how much the
increasing custom of wearing expensive
jewelry at all hours and places and of
displaying fat purses in public has to do
with the increase in crime, but doubtless
1t Is enough to warrant some checking
of these habits
There was time, not long ago, when
comparatively few of the very wealthy
and socially prominent possessed Jewels
of any size or note. and these were worn
upon state occasions only, while simpler
ideas of shopping and entertainment
made the carrying of large sums of ready
money unnecessary. Today the possess
sion of costly jewelry is almost as COM
mon as the ownership of dishes or furn-
iture, and it is worn at all hours of the
day and night, regardless of time or
fitness. The fat purse is the natural
accompaniment of such exhibition.
Under the old regime the highway
man had to search for Il victim. Today
1t is an even chance that any man or
woman walking along the city street

One trouble with our rural schools
today is too much consolidation.

As a Richmond mother said with tears
in her eyes at a meeting of school direct

OF thousands of mothers who feel the

There are several significant things
about this little sob story" of the es-
teemed and venerable contemporary
The good mother does not like the com
pany her children get into on their way
to school.
Does she expect that the school direct
tee the desirahility of every child that
goes to a public school?
1t is n mothers natural repHlsion from
things coarse, unlovely or disillusioniz-
ing, but it isn't practical. All children
must go to school in this state and they
all should go to school The sooner a
child finds out that there are boys and
girls of all kinds in this world and learns
to pick and choose his friends the better
for him.
What this fearful mother wants is a
private school of three or four hand
picked pupils and teacher she can hire
herself 1t is a lovely idea but it is not
reg Sonable and it is not good democracy.
Furthermore, she was before the right
Tribunal to secure a remedy for existing
abuses, if there are abuses, in Rich

can give the sob sister a school Just as
soon as the required number of three

duce a minimum of five children.
Think of it: Two more sobbing
mothers or those who don't sob, with
five children among them, can get such

forward this terrible example as an ar
gument against the system as it stands
now.
Repeal the transportation law? Very
we'll. Then there must be some sort of
a law to govern the situation. What
law does the contemporary propose? A
law to make it mandatory on the school
directors tn establish such schools,
whether they have money to do it or not
or whether the majority of the taxpayers
want it or not?
The Messenger knows better. 1t
knows that such a law would merely
make cor ditions worse and could not
