The Washington Elm at Cambridge,
Mass, Under Which the General
Took Command Of the Continental
Army, July 8, 1775.

First. There was nothing in him toll
Grant of the Wat Tylers that England
bas bred along with her Sidneys and
brakes and Fairfaxes and Lovelaces.
He believed in the propriety of great
possessions. Social justice in his time
did not exact of Americans the atten-
ton given to economic justice-the
right to work and trade, and be prop
erly paid for the doing-and that in
turn gave way in the public mind to
the related rule of political justice.
So it came about that the American
Revolution was initiated, fought and
won on the ancient principle of the
British constitution, mo taxation
without representation" which the col
onists declared should govern this side
of the Atlantic as we'll.
Washington believed that great pos
sessions of mind or Of matter imposed
great obligations. He believed that
the "able-man" owed debt to his fel-
lows in the measure of his ability. And
he carried into his public service a
fortitude which no disaster could
break, a sense of duty that no opposi-
ton could swerve, and conscience
which willingly risked 'life," 'for-
tune" and sacred honor" for the pub
lie cause in which he was enlisted. He
set no store on lofty station save as it
gave opportunity to help his country
and his country1nen, and for the self
seeker and the time server he enter
tanned the stern contempt visited like
wise upon the poltroon and the charla-
tan.

Can or Skin?

In probably the last speech Booker
T. Washington ever made, an address
at the anniversary exercises of the
American Missionary association in
New Haven, with that quiet humor so
characteristic of him, he satirized the
prejudice against his people. "A men,
Der of my race" he said, wanted to
20 from New York to San Francisco.
He wanted to travel first class in a
Pullman sleeper. He bought red
cap-fez, think you call it-forgot
the English language, and went as an
East Indian, and no one objected. 1t
appears that it is not the color Of the
skin, but the color of the cap to which

NOT A MATTER FOR POLICE
Elderly Gentleman Meant Well, but
He Had Not Allowed for Pos
sibIe Contingencies.

The wisest person may sometimes
make serious mistake by judging
entirely by appearances, as is shown
by this case.
A careless young woman, in starting
to leave car, dropped her purse. A
young man, who evidently intended to
leave the car at the same time, saw
her drop the purse, picked it up and
put it into his pocket.
But his action had not been unno-
ticed. Just as he stepped from the
car an elderly man gripped him by the
arm and whispered: IF you don't give
that purse to the young lady this in
slant I'll expose you"
Eyes, certainly" gasped the aston
ished young man. Then, with grin,
Il beg pardon, Marie; you dropped
your purse"
"Oh, thank you, Harry" she replied,
as she took it.
II hope you are satisfied" said
Harry, turning to the elderly man.

NOT BEGINNING OF ROMANCE
She Had Made Impression on
Attractive Stranger.

They sat together; total strangers,
on the narrow seat Of Fifth avenue
bus.
She was beautiful and conscious of
it. And she felt his eyes upon her.
She turned her lovely head and met
his gaze. He was good to look upon,
dark and virile, and in his clear eyes
was a look OF question and pleading
She turned away, her young blood
thrilling with the premonition Of ro-
nance and adventure.
Again she felt his longing but hes
liant gaze fixed upon her averted face.
She flashed him a fleeting look of en-
couragement.
Emboldened, he bent toward her,
his eager breath tanning her flushed
cheek and whispered, hoarsely:

gimme some more room ?'-Judge.

Big Business Cannot Afford

Copyright 1922 by United Press)
NEW YORK, Jan 17-This is the
inside story of why the moving pic
ture magnates can afford to pay Will
H Hays one hundred and fifty thous-
and dollars year. ~ -,.':
All the altruistic and uplift pur-
poses attributed to the move may be
properly endorsed, but the true story
is the extremely practical plan of an
extremely practical set of big bust
ness men behind one of Americas big
gest industries.
The masters of the moving picture
bushes sdefinitely expect that Will
H. Hays by harmonizing the industry s
business policy will save for them and
therefore in effect earn for them ten
times his salary.
That is why they are able to in
duce Hays to give up his position as
postmaster general in the cabinet Of
President Harding to become the
Lands of the movies"
The loss in 1921 on unshown motion
pictures ran from fifteen to thirty
per cent of the entire contracted busi-
ness of most of the largest concerns
With the annual business running
over one hundred millions, this would
mean a loss of over fifteen million
dollars and saving of a very small
percentage, in fact, one per cent would
pay the salary of the former post
master general.
Hays at the head of this organiza-
ton will be in a position to save en-
ormous sums for the industry and at
the same time carry out his desires
in the way of higher standards and
the general uplift of the business.

Secretary Weeks Replies to
Structures of Henry Ford
on Muscle Shoals
Ford Will Reply Again And
So 1t Goes Ad
Infinitum
United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17--Secretary
of War Weeks today sharply attacked
Henry Ford, who criticised delay by
Weeks in taking definite stand on
Ford's offer for the government pow
er and nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals,
Alabama. 'a'-
Weeks statement follows:
81 have noticed the comments made
by Mr.. Ford and sent through the
press associations relating to his Of
fer for the Muscle Shoals plant. The
facts are that after Mr.. Ford left my
say that he did not wish to make any
statement to the press and asked that
I make whatever statements seemed
necessary relating to our interview.
This did within a very few minutes,
as representatives of the press were
waiting in my office. The statement
in effect was that l proposed to trans
NIT Mr.. Ford's offer to Congress, the
only action | could take, as even Mr..
Ford knows that | cannot sell real es-
tate without the authority of Con-
gress and that nothing could come OF
his offer, involving an appropriation
as it does, without the action of Con-
gress.
apparently by the time Mr.. Ford
reached his hotel he had forgotten
the message he had sent me through
his secretary and, if correctly quoted
INDUCES in unjust and unwarranted
criticism. | regret that Mr.. Ford by
this action seems to have put himself
in the class of those who go to the
press with that kind of sentiment rath-
er than saying it to the individual con-
cerned. 1t would have been easy for
him to have done so, as we had been
talking within half an hour and he had
not suggested any such thought; nei-
ther has he or his Representatives ever
made any complaint to nae that / was
unduly delaying action. If they had
done so l could easily have demon
strated that there was nos basis for
the charge"
Ford will discuss the Muscle Shoals
project at a meeting of the, southern
group of the American Farm Bureau
Federation at Mupscle Shoals this Fri
day and Saturday, it was announced
by the bureau today. Delegates from
all southern and fifteen other states
