SEES "YELLOW PERIL" LOOM
French Writer Says White Race Must
Produce cheaply and Develop
Commerce.

Paris.-Dr. A. #. Legendre, French
writer on Aslatic subjects, after 20
years Of travel and observation In the
Far East, warns the world in his
latest work that asia is at the white
mans doors, 9oO,O00,O0O strong" The
biggest cloud on the horizon Of the
future, he says, Is the yellow peril"
The white race. Doctor Legendre
says, "lost face" as the. oriental puts
1t, when Japan defeated Russia. Dur
Ing the great war, ne writes, Japan
multiplied her resources and saved her
strength. while Europe lost 20,000,000
men and today suffers depressing in
tellectual, moral and economic de-
bility.
Detailed studies Of Asiatic economic
resources are given by Doctor Legen-
DIRE to support his assertion that the
yellow race may become sellers in
stead Of buyers unless the white race
develops its commerce in every way
and seeks to produce cheaply, antici-
pating Asiatic competition by estab-
fishing factories In Asia and by in
creasing production In all of Europe's
colonies.

A Gloomy Prospect

A town that never has anything
to do ina public way is on the way
to the cemetery. Any citizen who
will do nothing for his town is
helping to dig thegrave. A man
that ''cusses" the town fur
nishes the coffin. The man who
is 50 selfish as to have no time
from his business to give affairs
is making the shroud. The man
who will not advertise is driving
the hearse. The man who is al
ways pulling backfrom anypublic
enterprises throws bouquets on
the grave. The stingy man who
is always bowling hard times
breaches the funeral and sings
the doxology. And thus the
town lies buried from all sorrow
and care.
