REFUSED TO REMAIN DOWN
Lesson for Those in Danger of Giving
Up, Cleaned From History OF
Harvey Allen.

Down and out at the age of sixty,
yet happy and prosperous a year or
two later-such is the experience de-
yelled bit of autobiography entitled
Finding Youth" recently issued by
the Atlantic Monthly press, remarks
Success.
There is something appeaIingly hui
man about the story, for the failure or
the central character, Harvey Allen, is
the failure of thousands, and his sue
cess, the success that unfortunately too
many overlook. Being unconsciously
backward in his methods, as well as
slightly superannuated, Allen was dis
charged from the printing plant where
he had labored for years, and thereaf-
ter for many days his life consisted
of aimless wanderings in search OF
work, while his spirits were constant
ly dropping and his bank account fell
almost to the zero point. At last he
was in sheer despair; he was shabby
looking and his self-confdence had van
ished utterly he was forced TO bury
what remained of his pride and apply
for a position as janitor. But even
here he was refused, and once again
he roamed the streets with the haras-
sing knowledge that for the sake of
his wife as well as Of himself, he must
find work within a day or Two.
Then something from within him
seemed to give him sudden jolt. 1t
was as If a subconscious voice was
speaking. he discovered that he had
been bent and old, but that he could
stand straight If he would make the eff
fort, that he could stand straight not
only physically but intellectually and Ia
his relations with other men. He could
still succeed, could still accomplish
things, if he could free himself from
the grip Of the whitening spirit of old
age; the world would still be before
him, opening up boundless new and
glorious horizons, If he could regain
his youthfulneSs Of soul, If he could
have courage, be 'venturesome, pro-
gressive, optimistic, creative" Above
all, what he needed was not TO be
afraid of adventure, not to be afraid
OF living, or daring, Of doing fresh and
untried things.
In pursuance of these new ideas,
Allen adopted the expedient Of leav-
ing his native New York and of ap-
plying for a position In small New
Jersey town. He applied smilingly
and with the utmost self-contidence,
feeling that he would get the job
and he did get it. What is more, he
speedily rose until hs was virtually at
the head of the new concern; then,
having established himself and his wife
comfortably in New Jersey, he gained
wide publicity for his ideas concern
Ing youthfulness and success, and ulti-
mately accepted an offer to go to Cal
ifornia to become the head Of a
"Youthland" colony modelled In &C
cordance with his theories. Today he
is living a useful, happy and highly
successful life, honored and respected
by hundreds of his fellows, when with
q little less determination or self-con-
fidence he might be roaming the
streets of New York In rags, one OF
the great army OF homeless derelicts

CAME BY CHANCE
New Workers. Explanation of
Origin of Ice Cream Soda.
Customer Who Insisted on Cooling
Drink Credited With the Invention
of the Popular Beverage.

This is the day and generation of
the soda-fountain feeders. With pro-
hibition has come the rapid rise of
the sandwich section Of the marble
bar, the lunch that is quick but not
free. The soda fountain has covered
the country along with the car, the
phonograph and the film. They have
the greatest of life's safe improve
ments.
OF the whole lot, the soda foun-
tain has shown the greatest recent
change. An interesting sequel to the
eighteenth amendment is definite
demand for the installation of a milk
pump in the middle of every modern
fountain. With the milk pump has
come the urn and a demand for fresh
brewed coffee, for fresh orange juice,
and for stacks of assorted sand
wiches. The latest soda fountain has
more attachments than an automo-
bile.
But despite all these minor addi-
tions a soda fountain is still a soda
fountain and not a restaurant, or a
fruit stand. or a coffee counter. These
have not interfered with it's main
mission. 1t still does its biggest
business in the sale of those original
American concoctions commonly
called soft drinks, remarks writer
in the New York Sun
Not so long ago there was no such
thing as an ice-c"eam soda The
pride of first-class fountain was not
in the number of its sirup pumps nor
in its Jars of crushed fresh fruit
Rather was rank gauged by the num-
Der of kinds of mineral water kept
on draft. Plain charged water was
not served out as vichy or seltzer or
anything else customer happened TO
ask for.
"The soda clerks of today don't
know any better, most of them" said
an old-timer. "They think all car
donated water is about the same
thing
why, one place on Broadway must
have had eight or ten mineral waters
on draft all the time. Vichy and
Kissingen, Kaiser and Seltzer, Deep
Rock, half dozen others. They came
in by the barrel, mostly from Sara
toga.
Every place else had them, too.
The older stores, the bar at the Hoff-
man house, the Fifth Avenue hotel

serve board proved "revolt against
landed aristocracy" in the recent
election, according to Benjamin G.
Marsh, of Washington, managing
director of the farmers national
council.
"In 1920 about 38 per cent of the
farmers were tenants and by 1880
probably one-half will be tenants" "
said Mr.. Marsh. He said the federal
reserve board carried out it's defation
policy at the behest of profteers who
made $20,000,000, 900 net profit out of
for every three boys who lost their
lives during the war.

Tit for Tat.

This young woman has an apart
ment, and the young man roadster.
Last winter they spent most of their
evenings sitting by her cozy fireplace.
But this summer they have spent them
in his roadster.
The other evening he said at the
end of a long drive: 'I can hardly
wait for cold weather to come. 1t Is
so much more pleasant for me to sit
beside your cozy fireplace and"
"Oh," she interrupted him coolly.
"That Is because you don't have to
fret over a gasoline bill, then. But /
just want you to know I worried as
much about my coal bill then as you
do now over your gas bill for your old
car"
There was silence for few min
utes, and then he said In a mocking
voice: Eyes, / agree, but It's much
more comfortable to fret and sweat
In winter"

PUEBLO SCOUTING ON ITS FEET

When last summers flood disaster
overlook the city of Pueblo it looked
as if scouting would suffer locally for
want of funds to carry on the work
But the contrary has been true. Not
only was a considerable sum donated
Immediately by scout troops all over
the country, but the city OF Pueblo it
self has stood solidly behind the move
ment to the extent of providing a fund
of $1,000 for the 1922 work, backing
which was won, more than a little
by the remarkable heroic service Of
the local scouts during the disaster.

COURT EXPANSION
Urged By Illinois Big Biz Is
Opposed By Labor

Chicago.-Trade unionists are wag-
ing vigorous campaign against
adoption of the new state constitu-
ton. The increased power of the ju-
dietary is the target for bombardment
by the workers who denounce efforts
to place the state under the control
of an oligarchy Of nine individuals
serving as the state supreme court.
There was no public demand made
upon the constitutional convention to
grant unlimited powers to the courts" ]"
declares Victor A. Olander, secretary
treasurer of the Illinois State Fedora
ton of Labor.
Neither the newspapers of the
state, the farmers, manufacturers, nor
workers offered any suggestion that
the discretionary powers of judges be
increased.
WHO inspired this action? The
trail leads straight into the lair of the
Morgan interests in Wall street. The
scheme was first proposed by a
spokesman Of those interests in the
person of Ebert H. Gary, of the
steel trust
In statement he presented before
the American Bar Association at it's
meeting in Boston, September 5, 1919,
four months before the constitutional
convention of Illinois began its ses-
sions, Judge Gary said:
"A court of equity should have, if
necessary, enlarged powers of pre-
ventive remedy UNLIMITED BY
STATUTORY PROVISIONS.
'The Gary scheme has been worked
out in detail by the constitutional
convention and is now being offered to
the citizens of Illinois as part of the
new proposed basic law"

THE INSIDE STORY OF
HENRY FORD'S
JEW-MANIA

But-any campaign of Intolerance against any
race or religion does great harm to the United
States to every citizen in it!
Norman Hapgood has struck real blow for
American liberty in exposing the facts behind
this campaign.
Read how Ford built up his organization to
fight the Jews-how his American editors re-
signed-how he hired an ex~Russian spy
and an army of lawyers and detectives.

Power belonged first to the man with the
heaviest club Then to the knight with the
thickest armor.
Today power belongs to the man with the
most millions
From the same city, Detroit have come the
two latest and worst examples Of that power
gone wrong-the Newberry attack on the Ballot
and the Ford attack on the Jews
Henry Ford's millions can do the Jews no
great harm. The race that produced Rothschild,
