the age when he may begin to think
seriously about making money
Ford'S iiea is that the average
man canno, expect to accumulate
much OF 4 fortune in the first 40
years OF life, so those who have
reached this age without much to
show for it should not be diScour-
aged.
Up to 40 as Ford sees it, mans
chief function in life is to gain ex-
perience. "IIe should be learning
all he can particularly HOW to
spend money. As | told you two
weeks ago, the best advice | can
give to a young man anxious to
succeed is; Spend your money
on yourself; get all the experience
you can. Don't try to save money
and be a miser.'
knowledge and experience are
working capital to an individual,
Just as surely as money in the
bank. With $4,000 and no expert
ence, the average man going into
business for himself is more apt to
go broke than make a success.
knowledge and experience are
even more important than money.
To get them, costs money,
Obviously, Ford is not suggesting
that we go out and fling our money
to the tour winds. Observe that he
says, spend it ON YOURSELF.

He didn't spend on foolish amusc
ment, billiards, baseball betting
raisinjack and clothes beyond hi,
means. He invested his dollars in
increasing his mechanical knowl-
edge, in developing a definite cam
paign of action in a certain indus

Berton Braley's Daily Poem
FANTASIES

7 still believe in Santa Claus,
/ still believe in fairies;
hold my faith in them because
Unless illusion tarries
There is no fun in life a all,
No use in work or strife at ALL
No sense in any scheming,
There isn't any doubt of it,
If robbed of all our dreaming.
/ still believe a pot Of gold
Is at the ranbows ending;
Which. by adventure brave and boic.
l may in time be sending.
And though the cynics jeer at me
And all the pedants sneer at me
And all the facts confound me-
The gold is there, I'm sure of it,
And evermore the lure Of it
Will bind, as it has bound me!
oh. bleak indeed is life for these
Who have no rosy visions
Who live within world OF prose,
OF facts and grim pre'isons.
The silly dreams I've kept from youth
Are nearer to the living truth
Than all their dulleyed care is;
| laugh and flout their dreary laws
/ still believe in Santa Claus,
| sull believe in fairies!

A Newspaper That Serves
CHICAGO'S NEGRO PROBLEM

Following the Chicago race riots
in 1910, the governor OF Illinois APP
pointed a commission on race rcla-
tions in that city, composed OF both
whites and negroes, and included
lawyers. editors and real estate men.
This commission has recently Is
sued its report.
The commission investigated the
race problem in Chicago, studying
particularly negro housing, crime,
industrial position and racial con
facts.
Lntil the war there was practic-
ally no such thing as negro prob
lem in the cities OF the North. But
now and then someone would come
down from the North to tell South
ern communities how the racla
question should be handled. These
persons seemed to have very deii-
mite ideas about how the negro
should be treated so as to better
his condition.
From 1915 to 1918 half a million
negroes moved to the North and
East from the Southern states.
They found employment in indus
trial plants which had war con
SECS, Aat wages much higher than
they had received as agricultural
workers. Chicago received 65OOO
negroes during the years IDOLS
They were making good money
more than they had ever made.
But as for that matter, everyone
was working at increased wages
during the war. They did not
meet with the same restraints
which they had been required to
observe in the South. If the North
wasn't actually receiving them with
open arms, it at least was more or
less at loss to know Just how
they should be handled.
The negroes felt that there was
strength in their numbers, and they
became arrogant. Fierce race riot
broke out in East St. Louis, Ches
Ter, Pa, Chicago, and even Wash
ington, the nations capital, wher>
the streets were terrorized ior two
days.
All Of this went TO confirm the
opinion generally held in the South
that Northern reformers would nev
cr be able to make any practicable
recommendation for the handling
of the negro question until they had
lived in community where the
problem existed
These race riots also taught the
North = lesson which the South
learned during the period OF Re-
construction 1t is now generally
recognized that whatever is done
Tor the negro toward his uplifting
in moral and intellectual ways, il
must be gradual process. They
are not a race which exercises an
appreciable quality OF moderation
A sudden burst of freedom goes "a
their heads. Ii intoNicates them
Their steps forward must be guided
They are not to be herded into
green pastures OF ease and plenty
and turned loose to themSelyes-at
least not so long as they are il
the land OF the white man,
The negroes who have done mos
for their own race have held thi'
opinion.
The report OF the Chicago com
mission shows that the negro ques.
tion can be a problem in the NORTH
as we'll as the South, and it also
shows that this problem is nc
nearer solution there than it il
here.
The commission makes no start
ling recommendation Among 9th
er things. it asks more equal treat
ment by the police, better enforce
ment of sanitary laws in negro
neighborhoods, and better schools
and recreation centers ior coloret
people.
