the wisest individuals on earth. He quotes
their sayings and considers their opinions
final with the preference given to the mater
nal wisdom.
BY the time he is old enough to take his

thought she was but father knows a good
many things and cites to himself their re-
spective opinions on swimmin'. fishin. and

About the time he sneaks dads razor to
his own room and experiments a little with
the fuzz on his chin he concludes father is
a well-meaning duffer enough. but mother
knows less than nothing.
Five years later he pities the ignorance OF
the whole world and especially that OF the
old folks.

financial mistakes he thinks fathers and

Negative
Progress

IN the course of spirited discus
sion recently in the Senate,
- Senator Myers remarked that
''the world progresses, and both
slavery and rum have been abolish
ed in, this country" He also, about
the same time, came out vehemently
against the motion pictures as they
exist, advocating rigorous censor
ship.
Senator Myers seems to be one
of those reformers who emphasize,
in social progress, the factor of sup
preston. Given a free hand, he is
of the type who would sterilize the
moving pictures without establish
ing creative substitutes. There is
always life in things that develop
freely, although there is also evil
in them. The problem is to elm
mate or reduce the evil without
destroying the life.
Whatever censorship of the
motion pictures is necessary should
be done by producers themselves
and by other persons sensitive to
their vitality, and not by those who
think they can bring about a good
society by suppressing everything
that has life in it.
Better a little creativeness than
an infinite amount of suppression.
Slavery would never have been
abolished by suppression alone.
There were positive social and in
dustrial developments in the coun-
try which were inconsistent with
that form of slavery, and which
gave to the negative aspect of sup
preston a sound foundation.
The same, too, with what Sena-
tor Myers calls rum" There
were industrial and other develop
ments which made the saloon more
and more an anti-social affair. 1t
was in direct conflict with positive
developments of vital Importance
in the country. If that had not
been the case, the sentimental Pro-
hibitionists would have agitated in
vain, as they did, for many decades.

Modern Ships
Are MnrUeLs

NHIPBUILDING is properly call
~ ed the queen of the iron indus
- tries. That is because it repre-
sents the highest stage of fabrica-
tion of woodworking steel.
Marvellous is the sky-scraper. You
watch it's slender steel frame lines
rise like an exhalation from the
ground, that man may no longer
crawl in the dust, but dwell in sun
light and amid the stars.
Marvellous is the modern hotel.
A single palatial building gives en-
ployment, food, lodging and recrea-
tion to more men and women than
dwell in the little towns where we
were born.
Marvellous are the turbine en-
gines in our power plants, lighting
whole cities, operating factories,
subways and trunk line railroads.
Triply marvellous is a Leviathan,
a Majestic, an Aquitania. 1t is at
the same time sky-scraper, modern
hotel and set of giant turbine en-
gines. All are combined in the
SHIP.
1t is self sufficient home for five
thousands souls afloat in an element
which Nature seemed to deny to
man.
1t is a complete city in itself. 1t
carries its own supplies and fuel;
provides its own light, heat, power,
telephone, radio telegraph, elevators,
theater, library, police and fire pro-
lection and personal service of every
description. 1t organizes its own
social life. And all this happens
while the ship is driving ahead
through storm and calm at 22-25
knots an hour.
By the ships the oceans are trans
formed. Once seas severed, now they
unite the continents.
Shipbuilding, queen of the iron
industries indeed, symbol Of hare.
handed mans high triumph over
the natural forces he has taught TO
serve him!
The fate of American shipbuild-
ing, as well as the American mer-
chant marine, hangs upon the ship
subsidy bill. Our shipJards, now
second to none in the world, will
die of unemployment if they have
no ships to build or repair.
The shipyards construct mer-
chant and naval vessels alike.
Those who fight the ship subsidy
are digging at the foundations of
our commercial independence and
our naval security.

vised you to hold them. Every

not been improved.
The assassins of Rathenau and of
General Wilson accomplished moth

look back over your own past in

would have been for you, at times,

common people of the sort that

Humility and EgOtisn,

The true escape from both egotism
and supersensitiveness is humility.
The golden mean is a self-respect
which needs no more to insist or to
shrink than does a mountain or a
tree.
