GOOD IDEA ALWAYS WELCOME
incident Proves That invention That
Has Merit Will Secure Ap-
probation at Any Time.

"A good thing Will always succeed.
Charles NJ. Schwab was talking IN
Loretto about the remarkable popular
ity of new steel.
''Let me tell you," he went on, "a
story about shovel. Ju1 a hundred
years ago a number of men were dig
ging a line of railway between Blr-
mingham and Manchester. The shovels
they were using had square-cornered
blades about fifteen inches long.
1.-The digging was hard and slow,
and one of the workmen suggested TO
the boss that if he would grind OFF the
corners of the shovels they would cut
into the earth more easily and the
days output would be bigger.
"The boss ridiculed the idea. but
the workman later on persuaded an
ironmonger in Sheffield to make him
couple of dozen round-cornered
shovels as an experiment. These
shoveIs were submitted to the scoffing
b0ss for trial. The boss reported at
the end of week that his diggers
we're all turning up 10 or Is minutes
ahead of time in the morning so as
to get hold of one of the new round
shovelS.
'The boss, the ironmonger and the
northumberland patented the new
shovel between them and proceeded to
manufacture it in small way. In a
few years they were all millionares."

creasing emphasis. for instance.
that the plan as submitted. is CON
spicuously lacking in one particu-
lar.-the farming interests of the
State are placed under the DE
partment Of Education" Cover
nor Richie undoubtedly recog-
nizcs the omission of a Depart
ment OF Agriculture" as a most
serious one, and the rural commu-
mites m particular arc looking to
him and the Commission to see
that such a department is provid-
ed for.
This very oversight, however,
shows at once why commission
OF Marylanders should pass judg-
ment on any reorganization plan
for the State departments; and
the Governor has stated that his
object in naming the Commission
was to have this plan, and all
plans. carefully considered and
the defects remedied. Therefore.
when this consideration has been
given by Marylanders who know
their State, the new order OF
things, as finally evolved, will be
welcomed by the people with far
greater assurance that the prob
lens have been correctly solved
than If the Commission had not
been appointed.

CLOSE TO HORRIBLE DEATH
Youth viii Long Remember How
Near He Vas to Being Trampied
Under Hoofs of Cattle.

A yarn which may be branded as
pretty fair" comes out of the West.
remarks the Philadelphia Ledger.
A young man named Barker had
taken his bicycle TO make a journey
of several hundred miles TO inspect
some land. In the course Of his trip
he crossed large prairie field, bro
ken near the middle by high trans
verse ridge.
When he had climbed the ridge ana
mounted his wheel TO proceed he no
ticed what the rise of ground had OBJ
scured-that the field was filled with
Texas cattle grazing In little punches
of ten to fifty. Just as he started one
of the "long horns" caught sight OF
him and the bunch followed its leader
to investigate. The young man nat
urally quickened his pace and the
cattle took after him.
The trail was straight and level.
leading to big, gate. The boy bent
over his wheel and pedaled for his
life. He could hear the believing OF
the cattle and the pounding of their
hoofs behind him. but he looked neith-
err to right nor left What should he
do when he reached the CATER
No matter All his mind was fixed
upon the necessity of keeping ahead.
He neared the gate and it was open.
He dashed through like a flash or
lightning, lost his pedals. struck
rock and was pitched off and lay
senseless on the ground.
1t had happened that the man who
owned the range was visiting 1t at
that moment. He had seen the boy
race for life and had opened the gate
to let him pass through. Then. with
two or three attendants. he rode IN
and headed off the herd.

THE STATE REORGANIZATION
COMMISSION

Governor Ritchic's address at
the initial meeting Of the State
Reorganization Commission at
the Hotel Rcnncrt yesterday was
a mastery discussion of the out
standing accomplishments OF the
Democratic party in Maryland i'll
the past twenty years. The Gov
crnor expressed the belief that
many men and women upon
whom party ties sit lightly are by
conviction and tradition inclined
toward Democratic policies, but
are "everlastingly tired of the
daily recorded chronicles of party
schisms and striies and factions :"
lie rightly said that no man, no
group. no element i'll the Demo
cratic party is as big as the Demo
cratic party itself"
The selection OF former Judge
Burke as chairman of the Com
mission means that its direction
Will be along lines OF sanity and
common sense. Md the conclud-
ing part of the Governors adj
dress shows the scope OF its
work:

organization plan which has

cheney, at the same time re-
suit in. substantial economy
and saving in the cost OF

The Governors statement that
he IS not committed to any spe-
citic plan is a repetition of what
he has, said on several occasions.
1t is we'll that he has made this
perfectly plain, for while the ac-
tuating purpose OF the whole |
scheme is a most laudable one.

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-11-12

for development of international methods of avoiding war there has been a, vsritaoIe epidemic of ''off1cial' forecasts regarding the wars of the future. Generals and admirals have drawn the lessons of the last war and projected from them pictures of the war of the future, generally in the form of books of strategy and in memoirs
 None has clothed his thesis more graphically in the terms of prophecy than the former Gallipoli commander in his new book, ''The Soul and Body of an Army"
 we must fix our minds upon the thought that just as men seemed to be on the very point of ob1iterating the Man-up he got; seized hold of an aerOplane in one hand and a tank in the other, plucked individualism out of the mud and set it once more lpon it's feet in the open field, where numbers and blind obedience are go- ing to have less and less of an inning against science and efficiency.
 Revive Old Battles
 "Outwardly the battle of the future
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-11-12

wiM resemble battles which took place before the Birth of Christ rath- CT than those fields of sinister deSoIa- tion and soliture where we have suf- fered. The areas of conflict, the use of tanks and motors as the pivot of the forces where formerly elephants and war chariots maneuvered will have more affinity to 500 B. c. than to A. D. 1917.
 Trench warfare is already dead. The tank and the aeroplane are inau- gurating an era of economic strategy which was demanded, in deed, by the sotuiation during the last war, but was demanded, alas, in vain,
 ''In the next war machines will no longer be denied, and wide encircling movements followed by distant bat ties founght between comparatively small forces, will be the order of the world to come. No longer will the British fleet sit like a hooded falcon upon Brhannias wrist The old days will be revived, and the coast line of the enemy, wherever it may be-Black Sea, Yellow Sea, Red Sea-will be our frontier
