In last weeks issue of the Outlook is an article
by Stephen Leacock ION the Art Of Taking a Vacation
Mr., Leacock is decidedly opposed to the idea of a vaca-
ton for unitarian purposes. While he does not put it
exactly that way his notion that the way to enjoy 4 va
cation is just to do nothing and think nothing, and soak
in fresh air and sunshine, and beauty and rest. He de-
.ests the idea of a vacation for purposes of study, and
dcpfored the practice of collecting and classifying and
calculating. The same issue OF the magazine contains
a posthumous article by John Burroughs describing. va
cation days spent with Theodore Roosevelt, and we are
given a glimpse of Roosevelt the vacationist in action.
itoosevelts method was precisely the one which Mr..
leacock does not like. He read and argued, and he
spied on birds and beast and named and classified them,
nd had a fine time with them.
Anyone who has ever given the Leacock method a
.lir trial has enjoyed it. Anyone whose tastes lay in the
direction Of Roosevelts enjoyed his methods. 1t de-
ponds on the person. Almost anything will do for the
backbone of a vacation provided it is something in which
the vacationist takes a keen delight, and which is utter
" different from the major occupation Of his industrious
hours. The vacation spent in uncongenial activity of
any kind, with the conscious purpose of self-improve-
ment, may be productive of good results, but as a vaca-
ton it is a fizzle. t.

BONDS AT A

The two million dollars worth of Bank of North
dakota bonds draw 5 per cent interest. A circular is
sued by the Bank of North Dakota says that these bonds
are offered at a price to yield 5 h per cent. This means
that they are offered at about 81 cents on the dollar, a
discount of 8 per cent. The history of these bonds is
bout az curious as anything in finance.
The bonds were issued by the state under the law
creating the state bank. The bank itself had no money
of its own, but it had money belonging to depositors.
With no assets except this deposited money it drew
checks for two million dollars to the state in exchange
for the bonds, and these checks were then deposited
with it. BY this simple process the bank became the
owner of the bonds and its cash resources remained
intact.
The bank has credited itself with the interest on
the bonds during the time they were in it's POSSESSION,
this item being described as profit. But. if the bank
sells the bonds for $4,000 less than it paid for them It
suffers a direct loss Of that amount.
All of the past transactions are. on paper only.
Simmered down the ultimate fact is that bonds of the
state of North Dakota are being offered in the market
by a state agency at a discount of . per cent.

WHY Ex.PREsInENTs SHOULD be PENs1oNEEp.

While the president receives only SIS, 900. 90 a year
salary. his perquisites amount to a great deal more than
that additional. His residence, his yacht, his motor car,
his physician, his horses, his music, his flowers, his trav-
cling fund, his minor perquisites represent an annual cost
iof perhaps 5000. 900.
Thus out Of his 5000 cash income he can and does
save some money. Why, then, is congress now consider
ing a pension? -
Because the president Of the United States is in .
the world. His election to that office should automatic
ally remove him from all the financial restrictions that
concern all the rest Of US.
The fact that most presidents have been able to save
the equivalent of a pension fund while in office does not
alter the fact that none of them should be Obliged to do
30. Especially, none Of them should ever be permitted
to be in a position after leaving the presidency to be able
to make as an excuse to their fellow countrymen that
they are engaging in sainful occupations through neces-
sity. 1t is degrading to the presidency.
1t may not be. desirable, it may be un-American to
1t may be necessary to give them some place OF honor in
the government, such as a life tenure in the senate, or
an emeritus seat in the cabinet. .
However, there can be no doubt that the granting of
a pension to ex-presidents would be an added bulwark to
the integrity Of the most sovereign office on earth. No
man who has occupied the White House can ever after
ward be on a competitive level with his fellow citizens.
Whatever he does must have an exaggerated importance,
and il that importance is translated into dollars he will
be paid only partially for his work; the larger part Of his
income will automatically result from the adventurous
fact OF his ex-presidency. H..
Therefore, should not Uncle Sam step in and say,
When you retire 1 will pay you enough money to live
on in a way COMFORTING with your dignity, and 1 will ask
in return that you relieve me of the embarrassment of
having you compete with anyone in any gainful calling? ?"

TRAINING FOR CITIZENSHIP.

School children usually play an important part in
Memorial day parades and other patriotic exercises.
Their participation is not only gratifying to their elders,
but beneficial to themselves and to the nation, the direc-
ton of whose affairs will soon be in their hands.
School laws require the teaching of patriotism. The
intent Is excellent. but children cannot be made patriotic
by having patriotism made part Of a formal course Of
study. If the school work were to be limited to this it
would fail. Patriotism is love, and love cannot be taught.
Facts can be taught, and the teaching Of facts can be
made to aid greatly in promoting the growth Of love, love
of country, of humanity. of family, of law and order. The
right teaching Of American history can be made of i'm
mense service in inspiring love for American ideals. But,
as in most other things, the spirit that underlies the
teaching is Of vastly more importance than it's form.
The influence Of such exercises as those appropri.
ate to Memorial day is important because these things
are somewhat outside the routine OF his daily work, and
because Of this separate character, the impressions which
they make will be all the more vivid and lasting. The
child who participates in them becomes familiar with the
e1altation of noble ideals. and he is apt to 60 away with
the conviction that the principles for which those of his
own race and name were willing to suffer and die must.
be Of sufficient importance to demand that he himself
live for them. And the future Of our nation depends on
how well the school children of today learn these lessons.

PEACEFUL ADJUSTMENT NEEDED.

In the Guaranty survey just made by the Guaranty
Trust company, of New York. the following comment
ment:
Developments in the British coal strike, although
still indecisive, when this is written. add another hopeful
element to the world outlook. 1t has been proved def
nitely that the spirit of real democracy is strong enough
in the English-speaking peoples to protect them against
an attack upon its fundamental principles. There is
much in this event and in the lessons Of the grotesque
failure Of Rusia.s attempt alta purely proletarian DOM
ination of production, as we'll as in the probable outcome
of the many efforts of labor in America to claim an un-
sanization, to afford universal instruction. These dra-
matte incidents give solid grounds for the belief that
there&can be an evolutionary readjustment OF existing
defects Of production and the distribution OF its rewards
without q swing to extremes OF class privilege. either
for labor or for capital. that would be far more costly
and disastrous than any existing economic ills.

So long As the subject q German separations remain
ed unsettled. that subject constituted an important OBJ
aacle IN the way Of the full resumption Of peace ACTIVE
sities. rms was due, not to the fact that the distribution
OF money and goods which Germany might make would
OF itself be sufficient to rehabilitate the world, or 70 very
far toward doing %. but to the fact that so long as the
settlement Of the claims remained in dispute, with Ger
many hedging and evading, and With the Allies compelled
to use force and more pressure to enforce. recognition OF
their claims the menace Of more war. or of universal So
cial and industrial collapse was ever present.
There was q feeling Of relief when at last Germany
announced her. formal and unconditional acceptance OF
the terms prescribed. Nevertheless, while there was this
feeling Of relief. and while there was a general conviction
that an effective settlement had at last been reached,
comment from many sources reveals the existence Of a
lingering doubt, q feeling that, after, all, while the terms
had been accepted, they might neverSbe carried out.
Germany has now actually begun to pay, in exact ac-
cordance with the terms of her contract. She has for
warded to the Allied council drafts for the $500, 900, 900
which she was required, to pay by the end Of May, and
by this time those drafts, properly protected, will have
been received. Two hundred million dollars is a rather
tidy sum in itself, but the importance of this payment
does not lie in its amount. It is in the fact that it has
been made, without hassling or protest, in earnest, ap-
parently. of the intent Of the German government to car.
~ out in full the terms Of the agreement which, how
ever unwillingly, it signed.
