THE 1920 fire loss figures of twenty
states have now been completed by

those of 1919" said President w. e.
Mallalieu Of the National Fire Protec-
ton Association in his annual address
at the recent San Francisco meeting.
An estimate upon this basis will
bring the nations figures to s404, 000.-
900; and to this must still be added
the twenty five per cent that is deemed
a conservative estimate. for unre-

A DAILY MESSAGE
sY DR.. WILLIAM e. BARTON
PEACE MAKERS


The physolophy of the peace of YER
ers, and to separate them from Rus
STA by line or group Of small buffer
states.
These are Hungary, Rumania, Cze-
cho-SIoval1ia, Poland, Lithunia, Latvia.
Esthonia, and the rest, whose names
and geographical situations we so
vaguely know, and whose political
status is such puzzle to US.
More and more it becomes clear how
much Of vindictiveness and jealous
fear went into the making of that
punitive peace. There was lost an
opportunity to establish peace upon an
equitable and durable basis.
In 1914 the plenipotentiaries OF Great
Britain in conference with those Of the
United States proposed to end the war
Of 1912 on some such basis. They pro-
nrosed that d wide neutral strip be
surveyed across the American CONT
nent and populated with Indian tribes.
The theory was that If either Great
Britain or the United States should
move to attack the other, each would
have enough allies among the Indians
to hold the attacking nation back I'M
til the other nation could prepare to
defend itself.
was not that a beautiful way for
two civilized nations to utilize the saw
age tribes, and by intrigue ana
trickery among them which would
surely have followed, for each nation
to secure its own protection?
TO their everlasting honor the
American plenipotentiaries refused TO
consider this suggestion
What did they do in lieu OF buffet
states?
they dismantled their forts on both
sides Of the Canadian border, and
trusted in each others good faith and
friendship.
we want no savages to help US
keep peace with Canada. Our un-
guarded boundary is the longest and
least expensive and safest boundary
on the face OF the globe. because there
are neither buffer states nor forts.
They did not do 1t very well at YER
sailles.

YOUR COMFORTS

Something that proha l,Iv he's nuz,iad
Won often is evprasseH in this lattar
from a reader of The Pensacola Jour-
nal:
Years AERO T Maid Ok cents III have
q Trunk hauled nv a he srea gaman with
horse end wsson Inventors gave rs
the motor trucks. which now charge
me fifty cents for the same haul.
Il claim that the notion. that me-
chanical inventions make for chean
production. is a fsllacy
I'm the last fifty years. so-callad
IIsbor-saving devices have heen apnlied
to coal mining, cloth we Wing. trans-
portation. farming and other indus
tries.
What is the net result? Have these
inventions given us cheaner -products7
They have not. Prices have steadily
increased Every time an inventor
makes q shortcut. in the production of
any article. the price tends upward.
MY notion is that the solution of
the cost Of living is to go hack to the
old-fashioned system Of making things
by hand. Let us discard our burden
some machinery"
In the matter OF prices the writer
OF the above is right. On general
principles. he is wrong.
He makes the mistake. common to
most business men and workers. Of
measuring prices in terms of dollars
instead Of the fraction of his total buy
ing power that each article demands
He oyerlooks the fact that, though
prices have gone UP with the introduce
ton Of machinery. so have incomes
mounted.
The reward you get for your daily
toll is expressed in what you are able
TO buy-in tho furnishings of vour
home, the food you eat, the Iuxuries
you have, and the pleasures you OBJ
tain.
Your ancestors, in those GLORIOUS
days" before the coming of machine
production, had none of the luxuries
you regard as necessities. Where YOU
push an electric button, they read by
dim candle light You eat, as a result
OF machine refrigeration, foods that
were denied the richest kings Of
century ago.
You see a movie every day if you
want to. Your grandfather went to
the circus once a year.
Time was when only the mobiles
could afford horses. Now millions can
afford motor cars
Individual articles cost more than
in the days of hand production, but
machine production enables us to have
1000 comforts to every one that was in
common use before the mechanical
age.
II the writer, who complaines, |
against machines, wants a really sound |
argument let him ask this question:
Would we be better off, and hap
pier IL we discarded most of the de- |
vices made necessary. by congested /
civilization. junked our machinery and /
cities and went back TO the simple |
NE? The standard of material living
advances. but is the price
worth it?1

spEAKlNe o. OPPORTUNITIES.

Speaking Of the opportunities to be
found in the small town, John F.
Thornton, Jr., writing in The Ameri-
can Boy told an interesting story.
One day the president of large city
bank called two clerks into his private
office
7 believe" he said. that you two
Young men are going to make better at
banking problems than your work here
affords you.
Il have made arrangements for a
lob for each of you in a country
bank. On these jobs you will be
called upon to do a little Of every
thing. You will become banking fac
totums When your education is COM
pleted there IS an executive position
here for each Of you"
The young men thought well of the
proposition and disappeared into the
bushes" But the presidents plans
went awry Neither man returned TO
him. One wrote him a long letter
in which he listed some of the advan-
tages of a small town job over a city
job-the cheaper living cost, the mors
healthful surroundings. and the chance
to make more intimate friends. The
other man, in a telegram, quoted
Caesar, according to Longfellow: BET
ter be first in little Iberian village
than second in Rome"

TIME TO THROW OFF "BLUE
CLASSES.D

p. G. Forbes says it is time to throw
off thu blue glasses" and revive trade
md employment.
To urge that we become a nation OF
Pollyanass' he writes in Forbes Mag
azine( n. - would be puerile" To
prescribe as a panacea for our BUSH
ness ills nothing but an overflowing
lose Of windy optimism would be in
effective and foolish. To preach that
hard headed business men should shut
their eyes to the stern reality and start
aip-hip -hooraying for nom existent
prosperity would betoken feeb1emind-
edness.
What is here earnestly urged is not
that business men and others shut
their eyes to facts, but that they open
their eyes and grasp a clear insight
into the facts and the realities of the
present situation and that, having rec
ognized how vastly and thoroughly
conditions have changed towards
soundness, safety and stability, they
govern their activities accordingly.
In other words, it is my conviction
hat readjustment has now been thor
oughly carried out in so many difec-
tions, that there is no adequate reason
why fear should not give place to con-
fidence, inactivity to activity. and
short sightedness to long sightedness.

Common Sense Ways to
Keep Well
BY Or. r. n. BISHOP
ovERWoRkINo LIVER.
BY On.

| Eating more meat than IS necessary
| to repair the tissues In the body makes
the liver and kidneys work overtime.
Eating too much sugar and starches
| throws q strain on the over although
/ the little organ called the pancreas
is the one which gets the most strain
and finally falls.
| The liver can stand up a long time
under continued strain from overeat-
ing. but If the habit is persisted in for
years, the organ is bound to wear
out.
| The quickest way to wear out the
! liver is by making it continually fight
against poisons thrown into the body.
This is one OF the livers greatest du-
ties, to protect the body from toxins
or poisons. 1t will do this effectively
| for long time but continued bad
habits throw too much Of a strain on
| it.
For instance. man drinks a. little
too much whisky or some other alco-
holic beverage. He throws a strain on
the liver. The liver does its work and
the man either feels no effects or he
finds the need for purge, after which
he feels better. He keeps up this
habit for years, and then suddenly he
finds he has developed cirrhosIs OF the
liver
Poisons against which the liver pro-
tects us are always poisons when they
are eaten. The bacteria in the large
intestines make poisons or toxins out
Of certain parts OF the food substance.
They are absorbed into the blood
streams OF the intestines, and the liver
when working properly can convert
them into harmless chemicals.
Habitual or chronic constipation, es-
pecially when it is the result of eating
too much meat. is a bad strain on the
liver. A person who feels and shows the
effects of such a combination of over
eating and constipation is called BIZ
nous.
He continually takes physics and
feels better afterward.
Some organs like the lungs are liable
to Infection, but the liver is seldom
crippled except from overwork.
