The conference at Washington has
regulated in d very satisfactory way
one great international problem, that
of the Pacific and the Far East. As
suring good relations among America
England and Japan, it has made a
precious contribution to the cause of
peace. On this President Harding can
truly felicitate himself for his noble
initiative. There remain intact all the
difficult international problems of Eu-
rope, especially those of economic re-
construction They are too obscure
now to make prognostigations or to
manifest hope. A little more light
will come when we know the results
of the conference at Cannes.

Psychologist Prove That
Cheering Helps Whole Lot
Gee-HaW Tournament

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Sept. &c
If you're one OF those persons
who claim that cheering at foot
ball or baseball game is wasted
breath and energy. prepare your
self to be converted to the great
throng who do the cheering.
There's a machine out At the
University of Pennsylvania that
proves. according to psychologists.
that cheering does help whole
lot and in many cases may he the
means of winning the game. Cheer
ing brings out last. almost SUI
perhuman effort on the part of the
cheered, according to psychologists.
The machine consists of a little
drum to which a marker is at
tached. To the marker is tied a
string. the other end of which is
tied to the finger OF the subject
Then a l.S00 gram weight is also
tied TO the subjects finger. and he
is instructed to lift the weight up
and down until the finger can lift
no longer. No urging or cheering
is done the first time.
Then during second experiment
when the finger shows signs of
fatigue. the subject is urged to
Buck up, old boy. and show some
pep" and Just hold out for
while longer" The markings on
the drum show that the subject
has been able to lift the weight
many times more in the second
trial than in the hrst when no

"GETTING EVEN"
By H. Addington Bruce


T<O the man or woman who, sn2artng unde
sense of injury, promises himself or her
self the satisfaction of "getting even" will
the one who has wrought the injury, | woule
earnestly give the word of advice, "Don't."
All the experience of humankind, generation
after generation, goes to prove that 'gettint
even," taking revenge, is profitleSs activity
1t may be even disastrous activity to the one
so foolish as to indulge in it.
So true is this that in the folk philosophy OIL
every land we find anti-revenge proverbs
Here are few of them:
1t costs more to revenge injuries than to bear
them.
Revenge at first though sweet, bitter ere long
back on itself recoils.
To lose one eye that you may deprive an
other of two.
1t is but the weak and little mind that re-
joiceS in revenge.
Revenge is new wrong.
Revenge in cold blood is the devils own act
and deed
In taking revenge man is but even with his
enemy, but in passing it over he is superior.
To revenge is no valor.
Then, to these may be added few proverbs
phrasing the equally universal truth that to
forego revenge does not necessarily mean thai
the injury wrought will remain forever unpun
shed. On the contrary:
He who will have good revenge. let him
leave il to God. tr
Sit down and bangle your legs and you will
see your revenge.
The whirligig of time brings in its revenges
Every one reaps as he sows.
He falls into the pit who leads another into
it.
In the long run, most assuredly, injuries re-
venge themselves. And consider what happens
to those too impatient or too Wrathful to await
the punitive hand of time
They waste, in planning and working for
their revenge, time and energy that they might
far better devote to truly creative effort
And, still worse, because of the deadenine
effect of hate on all the mental faculties and
bodily processes, if they cling overlong to their
craving for revenge they are sure gradually to
unfit themselves for effort worth while
They may even undermine their health. Only
the other day talked with man who for
nearly year has been desperately scheming to
compass satisfactory revenge on another who
had seriously wronged him. In that year the
vengeance-seeker's health has perceptibly
Waned.
1t may be only coincidence, but it is more
than likely that the hate he cherishes-and
hate is something all vengeance-Seekers cherish
has had much to do with the symptoms of i'll
health all too evident in him.
Let him leave to retribution what he seeks
to gain by revenge, and l would confidently
predict that he would soon begin to enjoy in
creased Well-being Also he could rest as
Sured that retribution would not fail him.
For those who invite revenge suffer inevitably
In some way. This | cannot reiterate too EN-
phatically. If only it were appreciated by ali
who give themselves to the attaining of re.
yenge how infinitely better off they would be

DOROTHY DIX TALKS-THE SPORTING ATTITUDE

BY DOROTHY DIX

a old man, looking back across the
| ~ long stretch of more than eighty years
said to me:
II have eaten what was set before me-
and asked no questions"
Could any philosophy be broader or more
comprehensive than that? Could any atti-
tude towards life be drawer than that? Isn't
| 1t the very quintessence of the sporting spirit
to take fate as it comes, without whining
when things go badly, without boasting when
things go well.
ALI of us would like to be born with the
traditional gold spoon in our mouths, and
to have life to perpetual banquet at which
every dish was masterpiece of the culinary
art, prepared by chef.
Unfortunately, the dish that fate sets be-
fore most Of us in youth is poverty, garnish-
| ed by self-denial and favored with hard
work, and whether we get joy and strength
and health out of the eating of that, or
whether it sours upon our stomachs and gives
us the bill Gus dyspepsia that we call social
ism and anarchy, depends altogether the
spirit which we bring to the meal. We can
make 1t either feast or famine.
We can rail at the destiny that cast our
lines in hard places. We can rage because
others have automobiles, while we have to
walk, We can be filled with envy of those
who are better off. We can turn the whole
life into NORWOOD and gall, that SO embit-
tiers the very breath we draw that we are
afraid to curse God and die.
Or we can eat what is Nset before us and
ask no questions. We can accept our portion
of poverty, and find in it much of sweetness
and goodness, much that nourishes soul and
body. Or, If we crave finer fare, we can still
eat with gratitude the humble food that gives
us the huskiness and the spiritual vitamines
that enable us to climb the ladder of sue
cess. For there is no education like the edu-
cation that poverty gives. There is no spur
to ambition like the desire for better things
than on, was born to. It is the men like An
drew Carnegie, and Rockefeller, and Schwab,
and hundred others you might name, who
ate oatmeal and mush and milk in their boy
hoods, who feast on turtle soup and vintage
wines in their middle age.
How much of scandal and divorce and do
nestle misery might be prevented; how many
children might be saved from being half
orphaned, and how many homes might be
kept together if only husbands and wives
would make up their minds to eat what is
set before them at the domestic table and
ask no questions.
OF course, every young couple that gets
married believes that for the next forty or
fifty years they will live on angels food The
husband thinks that marriage is going to be
nothing but love idyll, with woman who
is going to remain perpetually young and
beautiful and eager to please him, and full
Of joy and gaiety.
The wife thinks that marriage will be one
glad sweet song with romantic lover who
is always telling her how beautiful and won

THE following bit of tremendous news
bestfrred little or no popular interest
in the summer Of 1902: Some gray
beetles about quarter of an inch long have
crossed the Rio Grande river from Mexico,
landing near Brownsville, Texas Agricul7
tural scientists announce, with considerable
alarm, that the picudo or bol weevll has
invaded the United States.
The rank and file of farmers kept their
wonted way undisturbed; captains OF bust
ness saw no connection between few gray
beetles and the far-reaching fortunes OF in
dustry and trade; politicians continued their
chatter and scheming, rather contemptuous
of the man science. To these practical
minds, the boil weevil was then of no more
concern than the dinosaur.
But the little alien in coat of gray, adj
vancing some fifty miles year and multi
plying at a rate which the practical mind
could not conceive, grew more and more no.
ticeably destructive, until in 1902, decade
after his modest arrival on the American
bank of the Rio Grande, it was published
that his damage to cotton for that twelve
month amounted to ten million dollars.
Then the farmer, the merchant, and even
the politician began to lend ear to the scien-
lists story. Newspapers awoke, and printed
details about Mr.. and Mrs. Picudo's family
affairs, in this wise: "The boil weevil sur
wives and propagates because of the excellent
fully drills hole in cotton boil, deposits
her eggs, then skillfully seals the opening.
That is piece of cunning implanted in her
brain by shrewd Mother Nature, who knew
that the boil weeVil would have hard bat
ties to fight and that its eggs must be hid
den."
And, in fact, the battle was at last begin
ming the practical mind having been
aroused by continued losses of millions a
year to recognition that, after all, the warn
ings and counsels of science were not use
less theory, but highly profitable on occa-
sion-more profitable than the politicians
solemn nothings. In the ensuing war, how
ever, the boil weevil had, and has still, sun
dry allies. He should be especially grateful
to the farmer who, refusing to diversity, con-
s'nues to plant the usual acreage of cotton,
thereby vouchsafing his weevilship fresh
lease Of life and power. Especially helpful
too, to the cotton-d evouring pest is the farm
er who at this season fails to "plow under
the cotton stalks in which next summers
weevil population is snugly housed. Repeat
eddy and with full knowledge whereof they
spoke, the State College of Agriculture and
other able students of this problem have
urged the blowing UNDER process as highly
essential to weevil control. Failure to heed
their counsel in this and kindred matters is
far more inexcusable than was the, indiffer-
ence OF 1892. For now the nature of the
gray destroyer is known full well, his dam
age of ten million dollars two decades ago
having increased to four hundred million in
1921. Is 1t not worth while, in the cir
cumstances, to take what aid of advice
science has to offer?
