WHAT ISNOT
WORTH WHILE

A career that is interesting to peo-
pie who are inclined to reflect upon
what things are really worth while in
life came to a close in the poorhouse
of Lockport, New York, recently.
Twenty years ago this srping, Mrs.
Annie Edison Taylor conceived the idea
of winning renown and fortune by 60
ing over Niagara Falls in barrel.
She went to Bay City, Michigan,
where she had barrel built to order
from special white oak stock and of
dimensions such that it would hold O.
! nough air to last her for fifty minutes
when sealed. She returned to the Falls
with it and launched herself in the
rapids above the great cataract on the
afternoon of October 81, 1901. Seven
| ty-five minutes later the barrel was
picked up below the Falls by the steam
err, maid of the Mist" When it was
opened, Mrs. Taylor was found to be
unconscious by reason of suffocation.
However, she was resuscitated; and
she soon started on lecture tour OF
the United States.
The project was not so successful
as to its latter part. Her fellow clt1-
Zens did not seem to wish to be thrill
ed with a story of this kind and did
not come out to hear her. Finally, the
| barrel, which she carried with her,
was stolen; and after this matters
went from bad to worse.
Not long ago, she went to the poor
! house at Lockport. She was nearly
blind, APPARENTLY as one Of the results
of her perilous adventure. And when
she died there recently, subscription
was taken up to provide for her burial
in lakewood Cemetery at Niagara
Falls.
If we were to moralize, it would be
on the utter futility of those activities
in life that do not result in actual ser
vice to others. Nor would such rledl-
tation be out of place, for there are
countless thousands of Americans who
are spending themselves in similar use
less ways. Indeed, not many appear
to think of the service they rendea
others. In this respect, our democracy
lseeks to resemble those which rose ano
went down before it. There were
many of them; and all, without eXcep-
ticn. were wrecked on the rock Of IN
dividualism, which is the name given
to the pursuit of our own selfish inter
ests without thought of others.

MENPLAY
DEEP GAME

Just as the women of America with
their promising National League of
Women Voters, have had the men who
study politics guessing for some time
past, so the men who make our laws
at Washington have been keeping the
women's organizations of the country
guessing of late as to the meaning
of several recent actions, some OF
which seem to look toward and some
away from disarmament and perma-
nent peace.
Both houses, for example, have ap-
proved a bill for naval appropriations
so stupendous as to make us the great
est naval power of the Earth within
few years. This seems to indicate a
determination to make the United
States a great military nation, which
l. is something that women very strong
| ly disapproVe.
At the same time, however, our Con-
gress has let it be known that it favors
the so-called naval holiday and will
do what il can to bring it to pass.
What can be the meaning Of two
such contradictory actions? Appar-
emily. it is to serve notice upon other
nations that our desire for peace Is
not born of weakness and fear, as they
seem ready to believe.
Much as we deprecate war, it is not
clear that we have any right as yet to
censure Congress in the course it has
taken. At any rate we can easily see
that other nations might take to the
disarmament idea much more readily
| if they were first convinced that they
| had no chance of winning in COMPETE

WHERE OUR
Minds DISAGREE

In our recent short survey of the pri-
mary system, we Noted the highly i'm
portant fact that the number of voters
who are actually participating in the
nomination Of public officials is now
more than fifty per cent of all, where
as under the old caucus and convention
system it was only about seven per
cent.
What does this fact really signify
For the truth is that the whole con-
troversy over the primary system
hangs upon this simple question. Does
it mean that there is less chance for
corruption and for the control of NOM
nations by unprincipled bosses? II
it does, the issue would be already set
tied, for there are no good citizens
who do not wish to see politics made
clean.
There is a large number of people
who hold that the larger the number
of voters who take part in the nomi-
nation of our public officials, the small
er will be the chance for fraud, and the
harder it will be for INSCRIPTIONS
politicians to carry their evil designs
to a successful end. These are the per-
sons who are standing so stoutly at
present for the primary system as a
gainst the old convention system. In
their minds, the worst feature of our
entire system of government is the
ease with which tricky and corrupt
men can make use of it for the further
ance of their own sinister ends. They
believe that there is far more of this
than most of us suspect, and that the
smaller the number of voters who take
part in the nomination of officers, the
easier it is for the bosses to cary out
their nefarious schemes. Therefore,
they say, any plan that will increase
seven-fold the number of voters who
participate in nominations is to be
looked upon as long step in advance.
