LIMITATION OF ORNAMENTS

President Harding's message is clear
as to ornaments. The administration
is committed to all possible reduc-
tions, both in capital expenditure and
IN operating expense, but it is equally
clear that limitation means proportion
ate limitation.
That means that this country will
limit in proportion to general Iimita-
tions and in such a way as to take into
account Americas great seaboard and
island possessions and adequate pro-
lection for its trade routes.

A DAILY MESSAGE
BY Or. WILLIAM G. BARTON
THE GREEN LEAF.

Beautiful as is the Weakening of ma
ture to new life after the pause OF
winter, the phenomenon has other as
poets which may now and then give
us occa sion for thought as we behold
the verdure of The earth in spring and
early summer. The plants are our in
dispensable friends. They are our sole
reliance for the continuity of the life
of man upon this globe.
The energy of the universe is believ-
ed to be conserved somewhere; so far
as known there is no ultimate waste
of it. But the energy available for
use grows less, and steadily is dis
sipated. OF the energy of the sunlight
falling on the earth, no very great
fraction is used; and as for that which
radiates through space nearly all, so
far as we know is wasted. There are
seven or eight little worlds that stop
trivial part of it; the rest is dis
sipated If it is conserved, as we be-
lieve and hope, it Is somewhere far be-
yond our reach.
But of that energy which reaches the
earth, no form of animal life is cap
able Of laying hold and Transforming
1t into tissue. Vegetable life only can
do that. DIR. Z. E. Slosson in a remark
ably interesting article says:
"Entropy is the enemy of the human
race. Civilization depends upon our
success in combating IT,"
"Entropy" is the gradual loss of en-
ergy to which all forms of force are
subject. He goes on:
an this war of self defense the
plants are our allies. They alone
have the power to catch the sun
shine as it falls and fix it in the
form of starch for our food, or
wood for our fuel. Every leaf in
the world is working for us, in
storing up potential power. in
hosting more energy to a higher
level"
Professor tombstone, of Cambridge,
says:
Solar radiation falling on sea
and land fritters itself away in
waste unrecoverable heat, but fall
ing on the green plant accumulates
in the form of available chemical
energy. The total result of life on
the earth in the past has been the
accumulation of enormous stores
of energy in the form of coal and
other substances. BY its agency
degeneration has been retarded"
The trees and herbs are our friends.
The ancients were not far wrong when
they counted that a man a benefac-
tor who makes two blades of grass to
grow where formerly there was one.

To Keep Ice Cream

If you should have ice cream left
over and are unable to repack it, soak
an envelope of gelatin in a little water
for a few moments, dissolve it in a
little boiling water and when cool beat
it into cream. Turn this into a mold
and set IT on ice to chill. Then it will
keep.

Those in Prison Bonds.

We may be entirely wrong, as we
sometimes are, but we can not heIp

We can not help being shocked when
we read of the cruelties inflicted upon
the weak and unfortunate, and even
the debased, when in dark, unVenttldt-
ed dungeons in ancient time, and the
infliction of cruelties in times not so
remote. We can not help placing upon
the brow of Howard and other prison
reformers a wreath of immortelles. so
we read with delight the gracious
words of Mrs. Martha p. Falconer, OF
New York City, formerly superlnten-
dent of the Steighton Farms for De-
linouent Girls of Philadelphia, now So
cial expert of the National Hygenic
Association, as she passes through

The Beauty of Fraternity.

! ne Beauty or TrateFnlEy'
If, in the daily intercourse of life, we
were to be fraternal what a beautiful
world this of ours would become
To fraternizo means to associate as
brothers, to show affection for one an
other, and to treat each individual as we
would have him treat us. 1t can readily
be seen that If men and women were an
mated and controlled by the sympathetic
principles of fraternity, there could not
exist hatred or wrong of any kind.
1t is lack of sympathy, failure to re-
spect the rights of one another, that is
responsible for so much of the unhappl-
ness of life. Bring fraternity uniformly
into all our affairs, and there will be no
necessity for showing mercy nor for be
slowing charity.
Mercy is necessary today in order TO
make some recompense for the injustice
of society, and misery cries aloud to
charity for help because many of these
who are compelled to seek it have not
been given fair opportunity to help
themselves.
Mercy and charity are undoubtedly
beautiful attributes, but they are only
necessary in this world of ours because
of mans inhumanity to man. BRING
fraternity into the social aid industrial
life of our land, and happiness IS sure 10

PRESS COMMENT
Americans Need Not Fret Over
Passports When Journey geu.r,-

Passports are ne longer required OF
American citizens OH leaving America by
custom authorities, according TO adviccs
| from the state department at Washing
ton, d. c., received hers in answer TO a
query of Edwin r. Williams, clerk of the
United States district court.
American citizens are not required 20
present passports on leaving this country
hereafter but are cautioned to have them
whose regulations of passports require
them or where they are in doubt. is the
summary Of the latest advice.
This advice comes as unofficial in
formation" from the department in ans
wer TO query of the clerk of the court
when the question was raised locally by
the Metropolis on receipt OF news to this
effect from the Florida collector OF Gus
toms at Tampa
In answer to the question the depart
ment's reply to Clerk Williams in fun is
as follows.
The department is in receipt of your
letter of April s, referring to certain
newspaper clippings in the local news
papers concerning passport regulations
and requesting to be informed particular
~ whether a passport is now required by
an American citizen to visit Cuba and
return.
In reply you are informed that While
the department of state no longer re-
quires American citizens or others TO OBJ
tain 9 passport or other document in
order to leave the country, nevertheless
it is the understanding of this depart
nent that the various countries of
Europe still require persons entering their
territory to be in possession of a valid
passport issued by the government OF
which they are citizens and vised by the
diplomatic or consular representatives
of the country which they propose to
visit.
LAS regards special duty inquiry con-
corning Cuba you are advised that the
department has been unofficially inform
ed that a passport is no longer required
of American citizens by this government
in order to leave or enter the United
States. 1t is assumed that Americans
may travel to and from Cuba without
passports.
