Japan has been as quick to
learn the white mans i'm
perialism as to utilize the
white mans science. She is even
quicker than the nimblest white
nation in action.
Thus, after setting, up dummy
government in a coveted part of
Siberia, she forces from it control
of railways, mines and other val
liable State property; and, when
the natives protest, seizes upon
their discomfort as proof that she
dare not withdraw her soldiers.
And the Washington conference,

its weakness with an appearance

The Tyranny
of Youth
THE overestimate Of youth is
a nhase of weakness.


The disposition to lament
its passing is an evidence that one
has not found the secret Of a
happy life.
Youth is the time of enthusi-
asms, bright hopes and hot de-
sires. Tie tendency OF the i'm
mature mind is to consider these
things the best part Of existence.
If we are fortunate enough to
acquire any wisdom as we grow
older we find that contentment
does not lodge in these things, but
s a prize to be gained by the
normal use of our will, our in
telligence and our skill in self
mastery.
The sentiment which crops out
so often in poetry and in novels
that the joy of life's morning is
all that's worth while is closely
akin to cynicism.
For it leads to cynicism and to
despair when the early period is
once past.
The impression you get from
the average novel is that the in
teresting part Of life is over when
the young people are married and
done for.
As a matter of fact, the best
part of life ought to be after fifty.
We begin life as young ami
mails. We ought to wind it up as
great spirits. And age is better
than youth, precisely as the life
of the spirit is better than the
life of the flesh; precisely as an
intelligent human being ought to
be happier than an unthinking
animal.
A recent item in the paper states
that Jackie Coogan, the six-year-
old star of the cinema who ap-
peared with Charlie Chaplin in
"The Kid" for $4,000 a year,
hopes to retire at the age of fiji
teen. He is now six.
The average American family is
dominated by the children.
This is bad for them and for
everybody else. 1t makes them
intolerant, selfish and disagree
able. And it reduces their parents
to a state Of peonage.
The truth that every parent
ought to know is that if a child's
youth is to be a permanent asset
in his life it must be made a
period of discipline rather than of
self-indulgence.
No one wants to go back to the
heartless, callous and unsympa-
thetic system of treating children.
They should have their full por-
ton of love, appreciation and I'M
Outstanding. But at the same
time they should be made to real
ize that life is not a matter Of
having a good time.
It is a matter of self mastery,
of honor and of heroism. Such
qualities alone bring permanent
happiness. And such qualities do
not grow in a soil Of continual
indulgence.
It is not a choice between
whether one shall be happy when
he is old or when he is young. It
is rather an intelligent taking up
of the problem how so to govern
the pleasures Of all our days with
temperance as to make ones

al Until the final vos- is taken
Washington will buzz with efforts
of lobbyists for oil companies, for
international bankers, and for
other conspirators against peace,
order and progress in Mexico to
avert such an inquiry.
These plotters of revolution and
bloodshed for private gain know
they dare not face a fearless prob
ing by an agency of our Govern
ment able to summon persons and
papers.
They know that if such an in
quest shall be held, not only will
they be found guilty of lawless in

of neighbor nation with which
our own nation is at peace, itself
q crime severely punishable; they
know they will also be convicted
of having taken criminal liberties
with the names and regulations of
the very highest officials Of our
Government.
They have dared, in their secret
negotiations with tools of sedition
in Mexico, to claim sanction of
the President and Cabinet of the
United States.
They have dared not simply to
promise money in great sums,
arms, munitions and supplies for
an uprising calculated to put them
in control of the natural resources
Of northern Mexico, but also to
offer assurance that, should such
uprising succeed, the revolutionary
regime thus inspired, financed
and led would promptly be recog
nized as lawful by the Govern
ment of the United States.
This insults the honor of our
country and requires exact expo
sure and condign punishment.
No sane American will for a
moment believe that President
Harding or any member of his
Cabinet or any person authorized
TO speak for either ever gave a
yestige of warrant for such a dis
honorable promise.

Il was merely a malicious inven-

or the malign work of some un-
authorized mischief maker un-
fortunately having access to the

For it's own guidance and pro-

therefore, insist upon an investi-

1 believe you will. And 1 believe you
will find a way to cross Big Muskeg.
1 see now that 1 must let you go,
though 1 can't bear to, Will. But now
1 must say something. You know my
father"

swered Wilton. "I can't make out the
reason for his dislike of me. The
first time 1 came here we struck up a
friendship that looked as if it would
be good for all time. Do you know
what the trouble is, Molly?"
I'm afraid Tom Bowyer has been
influencing him against you. He has
a strong power over father. He helped
him in some way when he first came
to this country"
"Then that's another score against
our friend Bowyer," said Wilton.
"But 1 was going to say-you see,
my fathers mind has given way to
some extent since his stroke, and-I
don't know, viii, dear, but I'm almost
afraid he is never going to be the
same man again. 1t started even be
fore his attack-this feeling against
you, and his mOroseness. 1t began

said Molly. kitty and Joe were very
good to me when Twas In Winnipeg
last winter. But what do you think
Mr.. BOwyer meant by his suggestion
about coal on your landsF
"There Is no COAL" said Wilton.
"Molly, dear, I'll tell you what our Sc
cret is. l was pledged to Joe-but
the secrets mine now, and 1 can tell
you. 1t isn't coal-it's clay"
"Clay, WiltOnT
"Clay. It's more valuable than coal
or gold. It's clay land that the wheat
grows on, or rather in the rich tOpsoil
of loan, with the clay subsoil to seal
and preserve the rainfall, yet easily
drained with a little labor.
81 discovered it when 1 was pros
pecting up this way four years ago.
It's probably an extension Of the New
Ontario clay belt, and, if so, it runs
for hundreds of miles through this
part of northern Manitoba. 1t means
that the wheat area of Canada will
be increased by thousands of square
miles. 1t means homes and prosper
ity for thousands who are now Strug-
Cling for a bare living in our cities.
"That appealed to Joe. He was a
man. If ever there was one. He saw
the money in 1t, and the value Of the
line, but he saw further than that. He
was looking ahead, years after he was
gone. He wanted to do good in his
own way. He'd had hard time when
he was young man. And because peO-
pie believed in Joe, though he dared
not tell them his secret, they lent him
the capital, and took up his shares.
That was JOe's dream-and it's mine,
Molly"
She listened breathlessly as he re-
vealed his dream to her, and yet, per-
haps, wOmanlike, she was happy rath-
er in the revelation of himself than
in the altruism of the dead man.
That's what the Missatibi meant to
joe" said Wilton. That's why we
mean to fight to keep it out of Bow
yer's hands. Molly, dear, when l
realized that Joe was dead everything
seemed ended for the line. 1 couldn't
see how we were going to carry on
without him. It's only now-nOw that
1 have found something as well as lost
everything-that l can begin to pick
up my courage"
She laughed and put her face down
on his shoulder.
"When JOe's death came home to
me l thought things over in there,
and 1t seemed to me that the only
thing possible for me would be to 60
before the shareholders and tell them
frankly what lay behind the enter
prise-I mean the clay lands and their
development.
"Well, Molly, I've changed my mind
won't tell them. I'll keep control
for Kitty. And I'll advise the share
holders to proceed with the route
we've planned I'll take the respon.
sibility. Big Muskeg can be crossed

'And I'll do more than that, Molly

cause you have the right to know
And just as soon as we've won 1 shall
be in a position to ask you to be my

What is more compelling than
advertising in the modern way?
81 often inserted a quarter
page or half page in the home
town papers. The expense Of
advertising is met by the collec-
ton box, and the more people
the advertising draws to church,
of course, the larger the collec-
tiOns. So the ads pay for them
selves in actual money. The
good that is accomplished can
not be measured in dollars and
cents.
Advertising must be backed
by good, sound, honest gospel
message from the pulpit. Moth
ing can take the place of the
gospel; not movies, nor music
nor half-baked addresses on cur

you to father. And 1 think 1t was my
fathers brooding over things that
really caused his illness. So we1l just
have to be patient. And Pm going to
ask you, for the present, not to say
anything about this to him"
Wilton promised, though with reluc-
tance. He did not like the concealment.
His mind, simple and direct, worked
In Straightforward ways. However,
he had been too hard hit over Joe's
death to make room for a new trou-
BILE. And he could not have refused
