No Need for Alarm

No Need for Alarm
The London Daily Telegraph erects
a straw man for the purpose of de-
molishing It in its soreed about trans
ferring British West Indies islands to
this country in payment of war loans.
We do not believe anybody in this
country is disposed to urge such a
transaction. The matter has, of course,
been casually and incidentally discuss
ed along with other features of war
settlements, but generally in an acade-
mic sense.
That papers grandiloquent period
about the magnificent stretch of the
British empire is entirely beside the
case. This country is entirely beside
the case, The country is not envious.
1t has been very indulgent in its at
titude toward its foreign debtors. Our
British cousins stoutly insist that they
are going to repay these debts, dollar
for dollar. All well, this being the
case, there need be no worry over our
alleged covetous desires for the annex
alton Of any of their islands.
The British are a wonderful people.
They have put over some great
schemes. Just now, however they APP
pear TO have bitten off about as much
as they can chew comfortably. They
needn't get nervous over any contem-
plated American plans. We have no
sinister designs against them. British
subjects are not for sale? Very well:

HANDLING HUSBANDS

Isl. Petersburg independently
The number of divorce suits fed in Pinelas
county is astonishingly large and seems to be
growing every year. Married couples apparently
are having a hard time getting along together and
are splitting every often. Advice to married
couples to how to avoid divorce and how to- stay
happy. though married, is constantly being Of
fered
'%Motheri your husband if he deserves that treat
ment but treat him rough" if the symptoms show
that he IS merely nagger is piece of advice that
Prof Ciault of Northwestern university gives in
lecture household management.
He sagely says that at the bottom of some of
mans idiosyncracies there may be a case of indi-
gestion.
In that situation the professor opines that it is
the wifes homely, loving duty, to put her kitch-
en- apron, and her cheeriest smie tune up the old
kitchen range, and give the spouse something help
full out of the cook book.
But the ordinary mean, selfish. nagging hus-
band should be handled quickly and thoroughly
the professor asserts. Smooth out the wrinkles of
his disposition with rolling pin"
That sounds as if the professor would get a rise
out of his audience all right. But isn't there
question about the practical application OF such
rue?
Many believe that the little daily troubles that
may arise in the home may be more easily
smoothed out by the practice of the give and take
spirit on the parts of all concerned.
But, as Prof Gault says there are times when
heaps" can be accomplished by wife by little
discreet "mothering" of husband Husbands are
but boys grown up.

CHILDREN IN HOMES

If the laws ever made to compel the renting
of property without questions to the compost
ton of the proposed tenants family the landlords
will surely appeal for suitable provision in the lease
for the full payment of damages however caused.
And damages will mean loss of other tenants
through the inconsdeTate behavior of lessees and
their children as we'll for defaced walls, broken
plumbing, and other things which mean loss to the
owners.--Florda Times-Union.
Well, what of it? We have such laws already.
if anybody cares to invoke them. Parents now.
and have been for time immemorial, responsible for
any damages caused by their children: and land
lords have all the legal support they need. But,
the fact is. ninety per cent of the destructiveness of
children in hcmcs is imaginary. They are live,
tive. sometimes restless and noisy, butathe actual
damage committed by them is small in the aggre-
gate, and the fact that their presence on earth
annoys somebody else is not their fault but that of
the person annoyed. There surely ought to be laws
forbidding discrimination against tenants because
they have Children though. of course, perfectly
competent to take into account the character and
behavior of children just the same as we would of
grown up people. And there will be such laws in
all the great centers of population in very little
while, if present tendencies are kept up.

A WORTHY PROJECT

The Washington and Lee University. of Lex
ington, Va, is appealing to the press of the south
to cooperate in the re-establishment of the Lee
School of Journalism at that institution.
There are a score of reasons why this should
be DONE and no influence should be more active
in its accomplishment than the newspapers of the
South One reason is that this college would con-
stute permanent memorial to the South's great
military leader, who was as great as a man,
civilian, an educator and statesman as he
a soldier, and whose fame is not even yet sufficiently
appreciated.
1t would commemorate the fact, too, that Robert
E. Lee established the first school of journalism in
this country. His school languished and eventu-
ally suspended because it was years ahead OF the
times, and the leaders CT the press in the north,
who in those days controlled the policy of the
entire profession, were oath to give credit to a
Confederate leader fer an idea which, they must
have felt, was bound eventually to exert a great
influence upon educational ideas.
Another and perhaps more important reason is
that while we have number of colleges devoted
10 journalism, we nave none YET tndt Is quite SdtlS-
factory, and the influence of the newspapers. the
power which is best qualified to judge, could be
devoted to making the Virginia institution free of
the defects common to all the others.
The schools must teach journalism That is
now conceded. So important profession must
have ether than haphazard modes of entry So
far, however, nobody has been able successfully
to systematic and classify the peculiar courses of
study which the youth needs in order best to qualify
for newspaper work = 1t would be easy to point
out numerous shortcomings in the present system,
and not difficult, perhaps, to offer suggestions
which would make new school more successful
than any of the old A golden opportunity to d
that would be afforded if the Lee School should
be revived in response to the efforts of the press
1t is not worth while to enumerate other reasors
The telegram is | 90 per cent for the proposition,
and it would like to see an enthusiastic response
from every quarter in which the name of the great
Southerner Is revered.

MEMORIAL PoPPIEs
(Orlando Sentinel.l


New York is going to celebrate poppy week"
the last week of this month, ending w,h AIomor-
ial day 1t is intended primarily occasion
for raising funds for the relief of French or
phans The of the poppy however, has an
appropriateness far beyond that immediate pur-
pose
1t is noted, in connection with the approaching
New York celebration, that the poppy was used
last week in New Orleans in observance of Joan
of Arc day. 1t is natural to adapt that flower to
any purpose reminiscent of the late war 1t has
been suggested that it be used generally on Me-
mortal day, wherever that is possible the spe.
cial symbol of remembrance for the American
dead who fell in France.
Surely there could be emblem more appro-
pirate for that purpose. The association of the
flaming poppy. with the battles, in France and
Flanders has been immortalized by an English
poet, with application to the English dead. At
once an anodyne and memorial, this flower APP
plies equally well to the remembrance of our own
heroic dead, and links America with France in a
peculiarly attractive bond. Why not peoples for
all the graves of our world veterans? They
are in bloom Memorial day in large part of the
United States, and might be trained to bloom
at that time almost anywhere.

good starting point for the discussion of future
problems
On the other hand, the Telegram has the per-
sonal assurance of members of the county board
that they will respect the wishes of Lakeland. That
of course includes its wishes regarding the DISPOSE
ton of the fund raised by the proposed bond
sale, whatever that fund amounts to. and the
restoration here of united management, under one
capable head, of all the city schools. The Tee-
gram is proceeding on the assumption that these
things will be accorded by the county, board If
that assumption is correct-and it knows no reason
to question the integrity of the county board mem
bers-the thing to do is to go right ahead, select
local board, let that board nominate the teachers
for the coming term, and all hands work together

THE SCHOOL SITUATION

The letter Of n. A. higgins, published in to-
days paper, deserves careful reading by every cit-
of Lakeland. He directs timely attention to
the title to the lot on which the school building
stands and correcs erroneous impression regard
ing it. AS he is not in the habit of speaking with
but full investigation. it may be assumed that his
information on that point is correct
He is also correct in his declaration that the
city should provide the best as it goes There is
no valid excuse for putting up with inferior hous-
ing or Accommodations of any kind for Lakeland
children. The Telegram is with him on that point,
and on any practical plan for securing what the
city needs
Regarding the recent mass meeting, his point of
view is mol so different from that of the Telegram
as he seems TO imagine So far as the personnel
of the teachers and local officials is concerned. the
slate is clean And no good whatever could
result from carrying the feud into The new local
management, or encouraging any hang-oycrs from
the recent squabbe which might distract attention
Of teachers or board members from their duty of

LOOKING FOR 1T

The man who always looks for grief is sure to
find the goods he seeks; his search is, peradven-
ture, brief. or it may last for seven weeks. But
when he finds his grief he's prone to wish he'd
sought for other things, and he puts up bitter
groan, the while the Wise Man smiles and sings
The man who doesn't pay his bills hunts grief,
and he will run it down; the course he follows
always kills fellows standing in the town. And
when he runs for county clerk, or tries to follow
other plans, his creditors get in their work. and
he is with the also rams. The scandal mongers
hunting woe, and he is close upon its heels some
ugly tale he whispers low will reach the man
with whom it deals. Then there will be fright
full scene of violence, the moon beneath; and Mr.
Scandalman will lean against fence and spit
out teeth If griefs invited to your home it's
sure to come with it's vase and it will furrow
your old dome, and never give you any peace
It's better far to hunt for joy, and ask it to your
cheap abode say kindly things and don't annoy
the. other jays along the road. Be honest as the
day is long and earn the kopecks in your purse;
then life will be grand sweet song, chorus
after every verse.

FRIENDS AMONG US

Passing through Lakeland late Sunday afternoon
were several automobiles composing motorcade en-
route from West Palm Beach on the Atlantic ocean
to the West Coast of Florida on the Gulf of Mex
leo. We who live in Florida and take things for
granted day by day, fail to realize the significance
of being able to make an easy days journey from
sea to sea but those who reside in other States know
full well what it means to be in position to adver
e the fact that Florida is more fortunately situated
than any ether state in the Union as regards
geographical advantages and location. Within
year or two when the state road department actu-
ally begins to function as it ought, we will see
real boulevard connecting the Gulf and the At
lantic. When that happens Florida will take on
fresh Importance and new life because heretofore
these two sections have been almost as remote as
Greenland, and the Falkland Islands. We are
glad the enterprising people of West Palm Beach
have come to spy out the land and to see for them
selves the greatness of this section of Florida Polk

JAPAN WILL INSIST
UPON MANDATORY
DEMANDS CONTROL OF THE
ISLAND OF zap DESPITE
PROTEST OF U. S.
Holds That the Mandatory Means
Control Of the Cables on the
Same Status as Germany
Prior to the War.

Toklo.-Japan will insist upon its
mandatory to the island of zap, ac-
cording to authoritative japanese
opinion. The protest of the United
States to the league Of nations council
has aroused interest in japan as a new
move on the matter which has been
lengthily discussed by japan and the
United States.
1t Is explained Japan bases her
mandatory on the final decision of
the supreme council in May, 1919,
which handed over the German is
lands north of the equator to Japan
without reservation. If President Will
son made oral reservations regarding
zap at previous deliberations 1t Is de-
clared Japan was not represented and
has no official cognizance.
Japan will hold that the mandatory
means control of the cables on the
same status as Germany prior to the
war. During the war Japan diverted
the zap end of the cable from Shang-
hal to the Loo-Choa islands, between
Japan and Formosa, for adminlstra-
tive purposes. Therefore, cable com
munlcatlon from America to Shanghai
by way of Gaum and zap does not
exist.
1t is understood Japan has suggest
ed to the United States to lay a cable
TO Shanghai from Gaum as substitute
for the zap route.
The Nlchi Nlchl declares that the
United States is in no position to in
terfere because it has not ratified the
peace treaty. But, 1t adds, consider
ing Americas share in winning the
war, II would be immoral not to con
slider her contentious.
A motion authorizing appointment Of
a commission to investigate the
Korean situation was rejected by the
Japanese house Saturday after r. Max
ano, independent, who had introduced
the resolution, had declared conditions
would become worse If they were al
lowed to drift.
