WHAT 1T MEANS no BE ALIVE
BY DR.. FRANK CRANE
Copyright, 1921, by Frank Crane)

The simplest things in the world are the most
marvellous
common leaf from an apple tree under the mic
roscope becomes an amazing tissue of cell and fila
ment.
We sometimes complain that our life is common
place, humdrum and boresome. People sometimes get
so sick of it that they throw their life away.
The simplest and most primary of our possessions
is life.
1t is simple; it is elemental; it is common And
yet is the sum- so is love- so is God These simplest
things are abysma mysteries.
So, If you have life, think what life is. Look at
its history from the day first entered upon
planet
Consider life in its struggle upward through all
the battefieds of evolution from the lowest proozoa
to the mind of Shakespeare.
At every step its existence has been threatened
yet every time it has trumphed
The name of life is The Great Overcomer.
When 1T was threatened with drowning in the
waters it developed glls with which to breathe water
and fins with which to walk through it. When it was
in danger of being crushed it put on SHE'LL as the tor
tose or the snail
At each new conspiracy against it, it found
defense.
Now, long teeth, and sharp claws, and, again,
thick hide, or horns, or sting, poisonous fangs.
AT last, it reached the top of the ladder humanity
and there its pulses beat strong and sure as they
beat ten thousand years ago in the primitive animal
If you are alive you have that nestimable gift.
You are fragment of that greatest and most con-
querng of all forces
What thing it is to have the inheritance of life!
And after all, our business is to live Just to ex-
press ourselves just to be- just to feel that common cur
rent of power that thrills through the universe and is
its master-Life Let nothing make you despise Life
The greatest Teacher said II have come that We
might have life"
Life is the fundamental morality for it is the pro-
test against every perversion that would undo u.s.
To live, If we but realize what life is is to triumph

for longer than that. Business, sci
ence, nursing, welfare work-all of
the lines into which women gore
quire hard and definite training. But
she TO whose mercies the destinies of
one man and three or four children
are to be trusted, requires no train
ing whatever, according TO the Amer
ican custom. Most of the training
her mother gives her is designed TO
teach her how to catch the man, not
how to take care of him or raise his
offspring. The high school teaches
her French and algebra, and the fin
ishing school adds music, classic
dancing and tea pouring.
1t is true that she may find IN
either of these places a course of in
struction known vagely as domestic
science" and 1t usually consists of a
little instruction in cookery. But of
the realities and difficulties of mar
ried life, of the science OF raising
and educating children, not one
American girl in a thousand is ever
taught anything. No doubt the
bright ones learn from experience
No doubt many of them are brill
iantly successful wives and mothers
in spite of everything. But America
leads the world in divorce. it has a
very high infant death rate, and it
also. we are told. has the worst home
cooking in the world. Would a four
year high school course in the busi-
ness Of being a wife remedy these
things? Students of the subject seem
to think it would help.

THE CITY OF TOMORROW
BY c. D. YoAkUM

prohibition law is to my neighbor we
have Joined hands with the so-called
vicious element in a mad dance OF
crime and social dissolution.
When these low partners Of ours
become too brazen in their kind of
law breaking our remedy is cruelty.
This is rot plea for severity in deal
ing with law breakers, but rather for
strength and consistency in the arm
of discipline, which, in the commun-
ity as in the home is most effective
when it is most kind. Cruelty, in
decent jails, hangings on Friday and
all such things betray the immaturity
of our social mind, and suggest that
something is wrong in high places
We know so well how to destroy
character and annihilate men but to
WELD the rod which restrains and
reforms is an art in which We are
amateurs. See how the whole mat
ter comes back to US when we appoint
a grand jury.
II a community assays 40 per cent
lawless and bootlegging and poker
playing tha stubborn 40 per cent will
exert its social or political influence
and the community will get some-
lflnB less ludn d lliOI dl AOuSSSledH- .
ing, viz: a report.
A tooth with disease and rotten
ness at it's root is very sensitive: so
likewise is a city. That reproof by
which we might be improved is called
knocking the town." Those who
would expose corrupt officials are
either playing politics or they are
disloyal to the party. Yet conditions
do not right themselves; they some
times become so bad that tne state
must eend troops and establish tenn
porary government, as in that Okla
homa town just a few days ago.
The remedy is within ourselves.
Let us not gamble, even for fun. Let
us not give away booze even in our
homes. Let us not be lawbreakers
who clamor for better police pro-
lection under the Very laws we dis
credit. Above all we should be
neither sentimental nor cruel, but
give the arm of justice steady nerve
that it may be trusted, respected and
feared in every corner of the city.

Prohibition Enforesmant

Prohibition Director NJ. E. Cassidy has not gone
about preceded by brass band but somehow it is
complained he has made decent liquor mighty hard
10 get in his baiwick. There have been no hurrahs
the arrest Of small bottlegger or there but
has gone after the sources. Whether or not he
has been much OF thorn in the flesh of those who
making home concoctions we do not know but
that be serious thing in the way of
prohibition enforcement. Home brew carries its own
punishment with it.
The other day the director started proceedings
to close a hotel in Phoenix for a year, because
it had been asserted that the place had been made
liquor dispensatory. Under the law this drastic
course be taken and in many cities it has been
taken
Sometimes it may result in hardship to the
owner of the property. who feels that he is not
responsible what his tenants do but the law makes
him responsible, and rather than risk the loss Of
revenue from his property for year, he voluntarily
enrolls himself among the prohibition enforcement
forces and sees his tenants do not violate
the law
In Kansas City there long rows of what were
supposed to be soft drink establishments, opened
mostly by foreigners which now closed with heavy
chains and padlocks on the doors The prohibition
officers know that the law is not being violated in
those places so that the field Of their observation
is narrowed by that much
Neither this any other law be enforced
except by punishment for its violation that hurts
the violator

the men, in fact are smoking cigars in the states.
In my six weeks trip doubt if 1 saw six
pipes being smoked, and cigarettes were almost
cusvely used by Englshmen and by very few
women-hghbrows and chorus girls for the most
part, since smoking is taboo nearly all American
women
"The Independent and Weekly Review" though
not interested in way in the tobacco industry and
unconcerned to the moral aspects of the question,
picks the tourist up in this wise:
This somewhat stupefying statement Of
anonymous British traveller who admits that he
knows nothing of America save the cut Of it's hair,
the angle OF its hat the pimple on its is
the kind of thing that keeps appearing in British
magazines of established reputation to such degree
that wonders whether the editors sleep wheth-
the returning travellers suffered from brain fag
some other cerebral disturbance while passing through
America 1t is not only that the recent revenue
returns would have shown the that we spent
in year sS0oO00OO0 in cigarettes TO $50 900
in cigars, but would suppose that the merest
glance at street the life and business in
cigar store, the very loud and blatant appeal of
the cigarette advertisement on all walls in all We
hcles in all publications and the very air as WELL
to say nothing of the loud outcries Of the Anti
Cigarette League, would have told him little differ
ent story
"The gentleman who looking for the hair
1T, the hat angle. and the pimple found just the
kind OF things he wanted to find to realize that
caricature of America that still serves as sort Of
boobyland bogie to divert British readers The rest
OF the 'CornhiT article is all of piece with its
udicrous cigar cigarette paragraph A coarse
incident in Salt Lake City duty for con-
tnuing indictment of ways and the whole thing
is illustrative of the curious way in which so many
writers the other side seem to be willing to
undermine what their big doing to promote
true understanding of-and understanding with

The Most Important Thing to be Ac.
Complished This Year for the
Best Interests Of Our



Phoenix, Ariz., Jan. ., 1922.
At this the beginning OF the new
year there is not business man in
the county who is not thinking Of the
best move to make TO advance his
interests, with conditions as they are
at this time most of us have
scratched quite a few of the remain
ing hairs from our heads and have
not yet reached any definite conclu-
sion.
We have confronting US not only
our individual interests but our state,
county and community interests and
ii seems to me that the one thing
that will be of the greatest interest
to our county and to every business
man in it, is the completing of a
paved highway from Phoenix to the
coast and to the Los Angeles market.
1t is a well known fact that Cali
fornia will meet us at the river any
time that we let them know that we
are paving TO that point from this
way, and win cooperate in any way
possible.
Why is this road of greatest i'm
portance to us at this time? First
because it puts US on the coast with
all the advantages they enjoy, trans
portation market, pleasure and gives
them and their winter tourists the
advantage of our sunshine and Won
derful climate. How long would it
be If this road was completed before
our hotels would be filled with week
end auto parties and tourists?
will answer that by stating that they
would begin TO sec them coming in
Is hours after the road was open to
travel. Second. we need our farms
cut up into smaller farms with in
tensive farmers, but unless we have
an outlet and an inlet controlled by
the people and lift our conditions
above and beyond the present pio-
neering state and make II easy to
get here and easy TO get their prod
uce out, we can not hope TO interest
this class of farmers, but on the 9TH
er hand If we build this paved road
they will come. they will investigate,
find our soil right, our water con-
ditions right and permanent, our
land cheap in comparison to land OF
less fertility and other advantages.
We have the soil, the water and the
sunshine that cannot be surpassed,
we can grow the tonnage. farmers
coming over in their cars will see the
advantages and it will not take
smooth tongued salesman to interest
them, all we need is to put a road
here for them to drive in on and they
are convinced and will invest.
Last but not least it will cut the
transportation of our produce down
to where the farmer can grow a crop
and not pay all the profit out for
that item, and not hurt the railroad
companies. It is true that they will
have TO cut their freight rate TO COM
pete with the jitney but if we get
five times the people on small farms
the tonnage will be increased so
much that even their profit will be
greater than now. We are for the
railroads and do not wish to work a
hardship on any business. but self

tify the large amount of freedom she
is given.
The American girl today, stepping
out of high school or college, faces
a wealth of opportunity such as
women have never enjoyed before in
any age-.or country. 1t is true that
she has certain legal disabilities. and
that she is apt to be paid less for the
same work than man. But her sis
ters are organized TO remove those
legal disabilities and her situation
in all sorts OF work is steadily i'm
proving, while there are few things
in life from which she is barred by
her sex. She can get as much edu-
cation as any man. Science and
medicine both offer her opportuni-
ties of which many women have all
ready availed themselves. In Jour
nalism, literature and the other arts
she already enjoys almost as much
success and influence as men. Busi-
ness opportunities are open to her
on every hand. She has almost as
much social freedom as a man. She
can and does travel and 20 about
alone and choose her own associa-
tions. The chaperon and the escort
her life as she wishes them to play,
and no larger.
This creates an ideal situation for
the woman of brains and energy who
wants TO enter a profession or busi-
ness, who has a definite craving for
independence and self Improvement.
There are many thousands of women
in America who have availed them
selves of their unusual opportunities
to the full, and who present to the
world a heartening spectacle of fem
mime achievement and independence.
But the great majority Of women do
not strongly crave achievement and
independence, nor have they any con-
siderable capacity for it. They prob
a bly, do not differ in this respect
from the great majority Of men, But
the man is subject to a different
tradition. Even though he has no
strong original bent, custom ordains
that he must train himself for some
kind of work, that be must get job
and make a living. Custom demands
no such thing of the woman If she
does not feel any interest in learn
ing and working, she can stay at
home and be a lady. She can Ego
into society,"" And ultimately, of
course, she can marry.
Only Wives Unframed
Now, the strange part of il is that
this marriage is a business which is
supposed TO require no training what

a doctor must study hard tor four
years. she who succeeds in writing
often serves a hard apprenticeship
