President Harding has not been Civ

to any one. He has taken cognizance
OF expressions of hostility to il in cer-
tain quarters and written to persons
who asked him if the wet and dry

stated his sincere belief that the issue
was in politics to stay.

widespread resentment on account OF
what druggists and doctors describe as
efforts on the part OF the prohibition
unit TO "iegislate" restrictions into the

arguments. Germany makes q fine
target for them because they love to
tell us how Germany is stepping ahead
by leaps and bounds and how she will
walk away with everything. In using
the German argument they forget that
they are proving nothing so far as
tariff is concerned. What they are
doing is to make very unpleasant
reflection on American business and
the men behind American business. The
actual figures of business with Ger
many during the two years of 1912,
1918, when Germany was in her prime
and long before the great war even
started, are the best proof against
the German argument. During those
two years we bought from Germany
goods totaling $36o,a4a,451.

eyes, Ruth, but we sold goods to
Germany during those same twenty
four months totaling $eSs,e43,233 or
almost twice as much! Does that look
like a protective tariff kills our for
eign trade? Hardly! And not only
that, but if the free trader wants to
rest on the German argument it is
simple enough to POM ont to him
that those figures represent two Of the
biggest German years before the war.
Germany today needs much more than
she did then and certainly, while she
is getting on her feet rapidly, is not
vet in the same position for world
trade that she was in 1912 and 1918.
$50 it is all down the line. Italy
and Great Britain both paid us more
money under a protective tariff than
we paid either Of them. Sentiment,
blood ties and all that cannot enter in
to world trade. We either have or
haven It the goods to sell and we eithcr
must protect our goods and the men who
make the goods or we will see our
markets flooded with everything from
South Africa to the North Pole. You

"First class day. 1t looks like to

Come to think of it, Ina didn't know
that there was anything to prevent,
but mercy, Herbert was so sudden.
Lulu began to recite the resources of
the house for lunch. Meanwhile,
since the first mention of picnic. the
child Monona had been dancing stifly

at that age-and then took advantage
Of the family softness incident to n
guest and demanded that Bobby go
too. Ina hesitated, partly because she
always hesitated, partly because she
was tribal in the extreme. "Just our
little family and Uncle Nlnian would
have been so nice" she sighed, with
her consent.
When, at six o'clock, Ina and Dwight
and Ninian assembled on the porch
and Lulu came out with the basket II
was seen that she was in a blue cot
ton house gown.
"Look here" said Ninian, aren't
you going?"
"Me?" said Lulu. "Oh, no."
"Why not?'
"Oh, I haven't been to picnic since
l can remember"
"But why nOt?''
"Oh, / never think of such thing"
Ninian waited for the family to
speak. They did speak. Dwight said:
"Lulu's regular home body"
And Ina advanced kindly with:
"Come with us, Lulu, if you like"
