ARE WHISPERS COMING BACK?
Just the other day We noted a group

brow college. Nine Of the gentlemen
present wore whiskers OF various
forms. and the tenth had a panied look
as though he were straining to raise a
set. When our celebrated institutions
OF 1earnings get to doing it, it is time
to sit up and take notice. Whiskers
may be almost as much of menace as
Bolshevisn, much more SO, in fact, as
they are liable to crop out in any
family.
1t has always been d question wheth-
er the whiskers make the man or the
man makes the whiskers. The ma,
jority OF people. we believe. are set
against an epidemic of facial forests
in this country. 1t is hard enough to
meet any man face to face now. and
some men are very hard TO find. but
if it comes we must meet it with forti-
tude and try to get them placed on the
luxury tax list, which seems to be the
hest way to kill anything off in this
country.

$50, 900, which includes new structures and re-
modelling activities. Not quite one-fourth of the
money which is being spent for construction is
for repairs, small jobs, remodeling and garages.
The amount of work, of course, is small in
comparison with the housing needs of the city.
Richmond along with other cities of the country
is woefully in need of more houses. It is. en-
couraging to note that some property owners are
going ahead with the erection of homes or are
making extensive improvements to their houses.

sons who need homes and have the money to
invest would begin the construction of edifices.

Commencement

Hundreds of young men and women of Wayne
county will be graduated from the high schools
this week and next. Some of them will continue
their studies in higher institutions of learning.
Many will commence to earn their way.
Commencement means the beginning of a
new period in their lives. They will begin to
assume real duties and to earn for themselves
an independent place in the community.
How important that they start life On the
right road, equipped with knowledge of funda-
mentals that will help them, and willing to fight
against obstacles instead of circumventing them.
If they remember that success comes only by
hard work, they will be able to escape many
pitfall. Sloth is the enemy of every beginner.
Work is his best friend. Successful men and
women are workers. Success comes their way
because they seek it earnestly, and refuse to be
beguiled into believing that loafing will pay a
dividend.
The true worker not only exerts efforts, but
also saves Many young men refuse to save from
their early earnings, believing that they must
spend the surplus for luxuries and amusements
The best time to lay the foundation for future
of dollars can be accumulated by the boy who
weakly deposits part of his savings and permits
q Banker to tell him how to invest his dollars in
safe securities.
The time to save money is in youth, not in
old age Don't wait until you are paid big wages
but begin by saving from small wages. This will
teach you how to save and how to invest. The
boy who wants to wait until he is mlddle-aged
man before he saves will waste the most precious
years of his life

Going After Russian Trade

If American manufacturers and industrial
leaders believed European countries would over
look the possibilities of gigantic trade with
Soviet Russia, they made a capital mistake A
growing volume of merchandise of all kinds is
pouring into Russia, with Great Britain, France
and Germany the principal shippers.
Germany is furnishing Russia with railroad
supplies of, all kinds; dry goods and other COM
modities coming from England; and France
and Sweden shipping vast amounts of mate
rails needed by the Russians. The Soviet gov
eminent has appointed commission which is
busy establishing trade connections with the
various European countries.
It is not secret that European countries see
in Russia an important outlet for the products of
their industries, which they are cultivating
assiduousy. Russian gold and valuable timber
and mineral concessions are prizes which the
European countries are not overlooking in a
period when they need money to meet heavy war
debts.
The allied countries know that Germany has
made arrangements to capture the bulk of the
Russian trade, if it can be done by offering low
prices and advantageous credit.
The United States so far has not been able
to obtain much trade from Russia. 1t is one of
the foreign markets that should not be over
looked. The sterilization of it's affairs will make
it one of the profitable markets of the world for
American goods.

70 alterations that will make it possible to
present large road attractions here pending
conpletion Of q new theatre to replace the

nre. For the information of our Davenport
newspaper brethren 1t might be stated that
the Illinois theatre does not need to be changed

have been seen there in years past 1t will be
recalled that Ben Hur" was seen on the stage
q the Illinois after the manager Of that pro-
duction had decided that the Burtis could not
accommodate the attraction. The fact is that
the Illinois has the largest stage of any theatre
In the west outside of Chicago. And, further
more. II might be mentioned that Rock Island
always has been supporter Of good attrac-
tons, and it is to be hoped that those who are
responsible for the future Of the Illinois will
come to realization that they are passing up
some real money by laboring under the delu-
sion that Davenport is the only city of the
three where it is profitable to show the better
things In the theatrical line.

Step Back-Boys First!

What's boy worth to the community? Chi
cago beehive of nearly 100000 people, will
find out. 1t sets aside whole week. beginning
May 6, in honor of Boyville. No funds solic-
tied. No tag-days Merely drive to arrest
thought and concentrate attention on the boy
and his problems-and how to make him grow
up into crackeriack citizen.
There's drive worth while. Chicago thinks
it's needed. The Chicago Rotary club, for in
stance, completes a survey of the city's boy-life
The survey shows that out of 325,O00 boys be-
tween the ages of 10 and 20, only sixth are
being reached by agencies engaged in specific
work for hoys-constructive agencies Plenty
Of destructive agencies are working on the
six-sxths. The Chicago Union leagues foun-
dation has boys club in one Of the most con-
gested wards. 1t finds that juvenile delin-
quency has increased in that ward II per cent
in the last year.
These facts have reused Chicago business
men. They have organized to furnish super
vised club work for local boys. This means
that business men, in studying the importance
of the human factor, are reaching the conclu-
sion that the adult problems which disturb So
ciety are in large degree the ripened fruit of
neglected boyhood. Developing the boy as a
potential social asset is wiser business and
sounder economy than paying for the criminal,
the drifter, the disturber and the parasite as
community liabilities.
Man, by consesting in cities, has robbed
boyhood ofNs rightful heritage-the Great Out
doors for wholesome sport and development.
Virtually imprisoned, many follow the wrong
road. If cities had given boys better attention
decade or two ago. there would now be less
crime-and better public spirit. It's not too
late to correct the evil. Chicago sets . good
example. Rock Island might proftably have
its own Boy week

During the treaty negotiations and for some

the only men who knew what w1s going on

Eot the important decisions upon which it was
based were arrived at in big four secrecy.
