| Have you noticed the trend of move
ment in this country? 1t is worth a
thought or two.
Booze is down and out, though
fighting for a chance to stand again.
Tobacco is a target for the crusa-
ders, who are determined that it shall
follow booze.
Motor ears are fattening out the
churches to such an extent that it is
difficult to obtain an old time Sunday
congregation.
Only three counts Of the many, but
they tell the velocity of the wind of
change and the way it blows.
Every few days we read in the daily
press Of the desperate plight of some
disabled exservice man, or of many
of them.
When the men marched away to
war the plaudits of nation were rise
ing in their ears.
Since their return they have not re-
ceived the assistance the nation owes
them, but Indifference. and neglect in
stead.
Billions for American pleasure, and
a pittance for gratitude.
Il
A great Chicago banker is out in an
interview in which he "sees business
on the recovery"
Other bankers have made the same
statement, many times repeated.
But it will take something more
than statements to put business back
where it belongs.
Raw materials and wage conditions
will have to be adjusted before any
great amoust of manufacturing will
be done, and prices Of all other COM
modities will have to hit the new lev
ell. before there can be any free and I'M
restricted interchange Of business ac-
tivity
It will come in time, but time is
more than day.
Seeing business on the road to re-
cotery' is good but feeling it is bet
ter.
Now that the country is beginning
to forget what Mr.. Lansing said. it
might be interesting to hear what Mr.
Wilson has to say.
Mr.. Lansing, as you remember,
wrote a book and gave some inside in
formation regarding the doings of our
American delegates to the peace con-
ference
The country talked and the newspa-
pers reared for a period of two and a
half days. Then we promptly forgot
all about Mr.. Lansing and his book
and the peace conference in order to
imbibe all of the thrills Of the latest
divorce scandal.
Probably by this time Mr.. Lansing
has himself forgotten what he wrote
about.
We are a forgetful people We crave
a change to the exclusion of every
thing else.
The sensation of today is as dead
tomorrow as the golden rule
If Mr. Wilson doesn't dish up his
reply soon we'll probably forget to
even read it.
In Turkey they are talking of draft
ing men for marriage, 50 serious is
the matter of propagation in the OF
toman Empire.
We might spare the Turk a few of
our late distinguished conscientious
objectors" The Turk might welcome
them. We certainly wouldn't miss
them.
And besides, a battery of feminine
eyes is not so difficult to face as one
