There may not be great deal that
the American farmer can learn from
the Russian peasant, but, judging from
recent editorial comment in a New
York agricultural journal, there is
little. The journal declares that
farmers would benefit greatly if part
of their day were rescued from never
ending farm activities and devoted
to some recreation. Now the peas
ants in those parts Of Russia where
the prolonged winter impedes work on
the farm turn their attention to vari-
Gus handicraft The articles they make,
as may be seen in a small exhibition
recently opened in London, consist Of
carved and lacquered wood, needle
work, carpets, leather work, and toys.
What began as a pastime has now de-
veloped into an industry, but who
knows what talents and interests
might be developed were more of his
kind to vary the daily farm routine
with time for play?

UNREST IN JAPAN.

In 1870 a tall chimney was as rare
In Japan as it was in Europe in the
year 1900 Now much of the country
is as highly industrialized as the Ruhr
Or New England. There has been
flow Of labor to the towns, congestion,
the growth of the factory system, an
increase of wealth. The Eastern en-
pire has, within little more than so
years, organized it's economic life
largely on the lines of western indus
trial countries, says the Baltimore
American. 1t is beginning to develop,
too, the social friction that seems to go
with such institutions Until recently
trade unions and strikes were non-ex-
istent in Japan. Now 10000 workers
at Kobe walk out, and not only are
they not suppressed by the police, but
they win considerable popular sympa-
thy and strengthen their unions
Whether, as some predict, the rising
tide of labor unrest will bring meas
ure of democracy TO Japan, certain it
is that the newly industrialized coun-
try will have to face and solve in some
manner the same conflict between en-
ployer and employee that for so long
has troubled Western nations

A gas expert recently predicted that
In 20 years American cities will be
smokeless and sootless. The cost of
smoke and SCOT in modern cities is not
fully realized. The Mellon institute
reports that from 600 to 1000 tons of
SCOT to the square mile fall in Pitts
burgh every year. 1t is estimated that
the smoke nuisance costs Chicago $780,
100000 annually. The damage smoke
does to household furnishings, cur
tains, draperies, wall paper and paint
is lamented by housewives. 1t is not
generally realized that SCOT and smoke
do great damage to stone structures,
says the Chicago Tribune. The most
serious damage suffered from smoke,
however, is that done to the health and
spirit of the people. The gas and elec-
trio age is here. Why waft 20 years to
make cities smokeless when they
should be made so now?

A composer studying the life of
Franz Schubert has discovered that
for some Of his best known songs he
received only 20 cents. But there is
no comparing it with what the public
now pays for music, in days when the
writer of jazz hit makes. as high as
$4,000, says Milwaukee Journal Do
values change from age to age? Ger
tainly they do-this kind of value.
How much was gunpowder worth from
1914 to 1918? Anything you had to
pay to get it. The world has more
money now for songs, and it has
learned how few men can write songs
worth paying for. We buy for $4,000
something we will not remember five
years. We are indebted for immortal
treasures to a man who worked not
for a 20-cent reward, but because he
had to put on paper what his heart
was full of.

The name his father gave him was
burned away in the battle fire. We
are christening him anew from the
font Of Immortality, says Leslie's
Weekly. He who fell in the dark val
ley is borne through the portals of his
home amid the weeping Of many moth
ers, the saluting Of comrades, the
booming of cannon-beloved because
he was lost, renowned because he is
unknown. His unwritten story is now
a deathless legend. President and
pickaninny, ambassadors and famed
heroes, bend above his grave in kin
dred gratitude. He may have been the
darling Of genius. He may have been
the humblest Of toilers. But, however
he may have lived, he died as an Amer
lean, and he died we'll.

The plea for more complete knowl-
edge of the workings of motorcar is
good as far as it goes, but driving the
car is much matter of temperament,
after all. Men who know how to
build an automobile and who can tell
from the sound of it's motor whether
it is working properly, who know all
about the brakes and the gears, ETC.,
frequently find themselves unable to-
drive a car. They have the theory Of
the machine, but they lack the perfect
coordination necessary. One Of the
greatest needs in any campaign look
ing to the reduction of accidents is
teaching drivers to use more common
sense. -. II

numerous baseball teams and two pro-

baseball grounds in Mexico City alone
More than that, it has many capable

A perfectly serious attack has lately
been made on nursery rhymes in gen.
eral and y-diddle-diddle the cat
and the fiddle" in particular. Appar-
emily they are too silly for the modern
nursery. AS matter of fact, many
nursery rhymes have quite a serious
origin as political squibs. And they
survive precisely Oh account of the
juggling qualities to which the reform
ers object. 1t is pity the reformers
themselves do not try to produce
verses that show an equal genius for
rhyme and rhythm instead Of crusad-
ing against nonsense. Imagine a
nursery without nursery rhymes or
fairy stories, or only with fairy stories
rewritten according to communism, as
the Bolsheviks have proposed! Imag-
inc a world without nonsense! No
Edmund Lear! No "Alice in Wonder
land!" Nothing but blue books and
moral tales for children and grown
ups! An intolerable prospect.-Lon-
don Daily Express.

There is a widespread impression
that a squaWling cat which keeps a
law-abiding citizen awake at night is
nuisance, and that to end it's cries
quickly and painlessly makes a man a
public benefactor, says the Phila-
delphia Inquirer. But Trenton resi-
dent, who tried that sort of treatment
on neighbours pet singer, has been
sent to Jail because Of his refusal to
pay the fine which was assessed on
him by local judge. This brings up
an issue which will interest sleepless
men and women the world over.
There does not seem to be any ques-
ton as to the right of the distracted
person to say "scat!" to the serenading
cats Indeed, his time honored privi-
lege of hurting bootjacks, hair brushes,
cakes of soap, slippers and other arti-
cles' Of wearing apparel and personal
adornment at the offending Tables and
tommies remains unimpaired. The real
point at stake is his right to shoot
cats that disturb his slumber.

A Japanese economist says that in
Tokyo there is one retailer for every

has familiar sound, that many of the
necessaries Of life pass through the
hands Of seven middlemen in reaching
the consumer. If things are like that
in Japan, we ought to be able to get
