Twenty Children. By ARTHUR BRISBANE Union miners are reported to have shot non-union men working in their places. It Is playing the game of those that want to destroy all unions far better than they could play 1t for themselves.
 Murder leads to nothing definite except trouble for the murderers and every man should know 1t. Incorrigible boys become fewer as methods of training improve. So say managers of boys institutions
 What is called 'fncorrigibility' among boys is often lack of intel ligence among adults. Many of the A worlds great men, in the hands Of ignorant correctionists or parents would have been labelled in history merely eincorrigiblen voltaire was an incorrigible. up to past 80, when he died. Fortunately he had power
 
 with his father and own brother, ending up with Frederick the Great and all the powers that were.
 Alexander the Great, in ordinary hands would have been incorrig1bie. But his father let him ride the dan gcrous horse. Instead of saying, Don't dare go near it." He allowed him to use up superfluous strength.
 Mirabeau's father thought him in- corrigible; put him in prison for debt more than once. He is only re- membered as Miserables' father.
 Before you call your boy "incor rigible," make sure that what you call ineorrigibility is not simply strength of character, greater than E your own determination. that brings success.
 Will Hays. head of the moving national life. takes his job seriously too. He consults the best. most in- teHigent organizations of men and women--50 were represented in one single group--as to the possibility of increasing moving pictures usefnl- ness.
 How much future generations will represent what Is seen "at the movies today Is proved by Mir. Hays statement that 1000. 900 human be- ings see moving pictures in this country daily. Not half that number read books daily. Not a quarter. perhaps. not an eighth, went to old fashioned theatres.
 Attention is paid for few minutes to an Italian woman, in the thirties. mother of 20 children. Is living with her. She thinks she will have about B." At that some women shudder. Yet there was time when the aver age woman had about 24." Some died of hunger. some were killed in war, some died of plague some just Adied. But. slowly. women, producing
 ersistently about "s4." have managed
 populate the earth and supply snough men to conquer 1t and take E it from the wild beasts.
 One of these day the earth will be fully populated. drained. irrigated. etc. Then each woman will have only two children; child birth will have been made absolutely painless. And gradually women will take their places. first as the equals. then the superiors of men, in other lines of work, in addition to creating the human race.
 c. C. Moore, estimable Californian, decides to contest with Hiram John- son, the California senatorship. You sympathize with MT. Moore, admire his courage and conclude that he never heard of the young bull that decided to get on the track and stop the express train.
 California has the honor of being representedin in the Senate by the most powerful man in that body, man born in California, whose brain and : character are known and admired in 'every corner of the United States and 1t is not likely that an intelligent Atate like California would reIinduish such man to make experiments with "an eminent responsibility" A great state needs great senator. Cali fornia has one.
 Balfour made his first speech as a member of the Lords defending the Palestine mandate, under which Eng land would control and bear the re- sponsibility and allow Jews to de- velop the city and territory that is there
 It was not fortunate first ap- pearance for MT. Balfour. Represent ing Lloyd Georges policy. the Lords voted 60 to 2s against him. Lord Islington said it was wrong to allow Jews in Palestine to rules when 90 per cent of Palestine is Arab, only 10 per cent Jewish. Lord Islington appears to overlook the fact that the English are able to rule India with Sonly 100000 English soldiers among X 300, 900, 900 Asiatics. If one third of one N per cent of Englishmen can rule 3Oo,- 100000 Asiatics, why can't 10 per cent of Jews control and rule justly and fairly 90 per cent of Arabs?s
