The present cash value OF Germany
debt, reckoning 5 per cent on the de-
ferred payments, is in the neighDor-
hood of $13, 900, O00, 900. This would
lift the German mortgage. yet
steadily the public is told by those
who must know better that the total
is more than double the real sum. Is
Germany capable Of paying $13,9OO,-
OOO, 900? Bernard NJ. Baruch, our
chief financial expert at Paris in 1919
estimated that she could pay $4,000,
600, 900, and the American delegation
supported this figure, which was re-
garded as moderate. Keynes, whose
pro-German bias is notorious, esti-
mated i'm his first book that Germany
could pay SO, OO0, 900, 900. He has since
admitted that he underestimated her
capacity and is now in substantial
agreement, though he covers 1t up,
with the figures of the reparations
commission. Impartial persons who
have studied German con
cede that the demands on Germany
not exceed her capacity to pay.

DOES YOUTH SHEER AT LABOR?

making one hundred per cent OF our
I children accept iR their education
learning designed to fit them for the
professions and the so-called white
collar" occupations. More than 80
per cent Of our people gain their live
lihood through agriculture and indus
try, through work with their hands,
but we have built up an educational
system designed to perfect all Of our
children in fields which will accOmmo-
date only 10 per ent Of them. We
harness together in the educational
shafts the future plumber and the
future lawyer, the youth who designs
to follow his fathers footsteps as a
surgeon and the girl whose sole am
bition is to become as good a wife
and housekeeper as her mother. We
seek to fit all humanity to one pat
tern in our schools.
One result of this system has been
the widespread impression among u
growing youth that work with the
hands is mental, degrading, and a
thing to be avoided. We are breed
ing into our rising generation con-
tempt for work with the hands, that
threatens to become a danger not
only to the individual but to the ma
ton. One thing that we must do is
to convince our growing boys and
girls that respect for work with head
and heart and hand which was oc-
corded by our forefathers. America
is in vital need of skilled craftsmen,
real Americans who a carry the re-
sponsibility that rests upon the great
body Of intelligent American work
men. We must offer to the American
BOY and girl in school the training
that will fit him and her to take their
place in the community as self-sup-
porting, self-respecting citizens. We
must offer every child, in his school
years, the opportunity to choose for
himself his life occupation.
Teaching children to be useful to
themselves and to the community has

100 orphaned children, who are re-
ceiving training and education. To
each of them we give a high school
education and a trade. The classical
education is linked with the practical.
The theory learned in the school
room is worked out in the field or the
shop. When a boy or girl is gradual

a high school education. He is
equipped to take his place in the
community to support himself, and to
become a real citizen. He has been
trained not only to think but to
work with his heart and his hands.
He is assured for the future.

THE EDITORIAL PROFESSION

Yankton ess-Dakotan-The life Of
a country newspaper editor in South
Dakota is not a bed Of roses, but
neither is it a bed of thorns as some
editorial plants might lead the unin-
formed to believe. 1t is just a happy
average, providing a comfortable iiv-
ing and not much more, according to
some interesting statistics gathered
and just given out by Paul W. Kieser,
agricultural editor of South Dakota
State college for the South Dakota
Press association. Mr.. Kieser's in
v~estigation shows that the average net
income Of country editors in this state
for the year 1921 was ~$3,147.74, on an
average investment, exclusive Of build
ings, Of $5,524.63.
Some other interesting facts are re-
vealed in Mr.. Kieser's report. For in
stance, he found that the average
length of ownership of present coun-
try publishers in the state is 10 years,
and the average age of the editors is
A years. Forty Of the 10 publishers
covered in the survey are so years Of
age or over, while only II are under
80, the youngest publisher in the state
being 19 years of age. They are val
liable community builders. one must
deduce from this showing, men oe
permanence and of mature years.
There was difference of opinion
among the editors as to whether the
business is more profitable now than
it was a dozen years ago, the relative
purchasing power of the dollar taken
into consideration, but the great ma
jority Of the lilo q~ueried, 81 In fact,
answered that it Is, while only IA held
to the belief that it was less profitable
now. Several we're in doubt. No Stats
tics are available on the condition Of
the business a dozen years ago, but
the opinions of the 81 may be taken as
a reliable basis for conclusion.
Mr.. Keiser's statistics are illumi-
mating, and intensely interesting to
men of the profession. We learn from
these statistics that these men, who
have so large a part in molding the
public sentiment in their respective
communities, are on the average quail
flied both by age and by experience to
fill the positions they do, to take a
leading part In the thought and ac-
tiviities OF their home towns. Mr..
Keiser has succeeded in convincing us
at least, that the editorial profession
is one to which any man should be
proud to dedicate his life.

and this so turned the head OF the

major part Of their business, are Civ.
ing public expression to the results
of weeks Of careful reporting by ex.
pert observers. 1t is reassuring to
note that these opinions invariably
are optimistic.
e. g.. Quamme, president Of the
Federal Land Bank of st. Paul. for
example, says the present crop will
be n of the n~orthwest's best: that
the production for the year in terms
of dollars will be close to a billion.
Mr.. Quamme sees restoration of pros
perity on the farms, the liquidation of
long standing obligations, and ability
in the rural sections to purchase and
pay for needs owe and above what
might be termed necessities.
The good news from the farming
sections permeate to New York and
from hat center we note forecasts q
business booms due to the bettered
situation Of the nations farmers.
Walter l.. Todd, basing his opinion
upon a nationwide survey, informs
the newspapers by circular that the
revival of business underway for
some time will SOC blossom out into
a regular trade boom, due to the de
sire of merchants and business men
everywhere to bring their stocks up
to normal, following a long period in
which they have been working on the
least investment possible.
The railroad and coal strikes will
be settled very soon, all observers as
sert, before they have become a
serious drawback to the progressive
trend of business, and the settle
ments are expected to put these two
basic industries upon a more stable
operating basis, so that future handi-
caps and annoyances will be less
likely.
Movements Of this character come
slowly; they arrive before one knows
it, as a rule. Only the few sense the
facts until they thrust themselves
upon the attention of all. AS soon as
the new wealth grown this year
makes its influence felt in general
commercial lines, look for normally,
or better, in business. That is what
the big fellows are telling us; that
is the logical view to take under all
present circumstances.

BATTERY PA[MISTRY

nicely until the car driver gets wise TO
the trick. II is the most natural thing
in the world TO be attracted by claims
Of wonderful solutions that charge
batteries instantly. especially Il you
have had any recent trouble'with that
Particular organ of your car.
A storage battery is made Of lead
and lead compounds which absorhs
acid from the battery solution as il
delivers current. The acid is driven
from the plates again when the bat
terry is recharged either while on the
car or at service station. Thus a
continuous interchange OF acid to
plates and back to the solution is kept
up, says Mr.. Graham, local Willard
Battery dealer.
"To begin with, the battery is fully
charged" says Mr.. Graham. ''and has
solution which contains the proper
amount of acid. Because the plates
absorb this acid as It discharges. some
slight -ofha artists have been max
ing nice living by pouring more acid
into Il. OF course the additional acid
makes the battery operative hut when
II is charged on the car through nor
