LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK
By LETE PAPE



Wisseling is the easiest and cheap
est way to make music. The bummest
wisselers are the ones that wissel the
most, proving quantity and quality is
2 diffrent things
If a felIo wissels good everybody
considers it is no more than his dooty,
but if a gerl wissels good everybody
thinks she is CRATE. This proves jest
because a thing is unexpected it gets
a lot of credit. One of the saddest
sites to lissen to is a gerl that thinks
she can wissel if she's the ony one
thinks so and everybody elts knows
diffrent.
Some people are the ony ones that
know wat they're wisseling and others
don't even know themselves This
proves the amount of ignorants in the
werld.
No matter how bum of a wisseler
you are you always injoy it yourself,
proving wisseling is never intfrely
wasted, and also proving jest because
you're having a good time that don't
say everybody elts is.
The best way to call a dog is to
wissel to it. but on the contrary you
could wissel to cat all day without
making it act eny diffrent.
The scarcest way TO wissel is throo
your fingers, hardly eny fellows being
able to do it good, and no gerls-
Some good times not to wissel is in
skool, in churtch. and wen your father
is giving you heck.

Daily Talk
THE sKY-AT NIGHT.

Every time I come across an un-
usually conceited man I say to my
look into the face of the stars for an
hour-and if he has any sense at ali.
he will go to bed humbled and with
thoughts on his MIND outside his little
self"
All of us grow altogether too wise
in our own eyes at times. We need
simple bigness to bring us back home.
Last night I stood for an hour or so
looking at the stars. The stars. nes-
tling in their sparkling stiffness,
seemed to vie with each other to gain
my attention.
There was that marvellous Milky
Way" spreading across the heavens
like a soft, silk belt-in its path
of wise men busy studying and spec
ulatfng for a billion years.
And then there were the great,
prominent stars that seemed fairly to
blink at me from their majestic set
tings in the sky
Who put them there? How long
have they been shining2 What do
they think of us, looking up at them
so helplessly?
Who cannot feel the force of the
poet-singer of the Bible when. on
looking into the Heavens, he uttered:
What is man that Thou art mindful
of him-or the son of man that Thou
visiteth him"
ALtIG StOOu DeLOTG LIEL iHEOfuDaI-
able sight-billions of stars lowering
above me like q netted eanopy-and
just like one of the little grains of
sand that rolled in and out from the
shore before me.
If you are in doubt about the exist
ence of a God, stand before the sky at
night and think while you look.
The trouble is that we know so very
little that the great creations of this
world blind us much of the time.
But out from the sky at night rolls
the message of the ages-to believe,
TO have faith, to partake of the free
dom that rightfully belongs to us, to
be just, to be kind. to think of others
and to make this world better and
more beautiful place in which to live
and love and learn.

Our old army comrade, "free
seeds" has bobbed up again in con-
nection with the passage of the agri-
culture appropriation bill. by the
house. The amount carried is $780,
600. The budget man omitted it; so
did the committee. but the house put
it in. No more senseless and un-
caIled-for way of squandering the
public funds ever has been found than
this custom, now hoary with age, of
making an appropriation for the free
distribution of garden seeds. Those
who have received them agree that
they can buy more and better seeds
for a dime at the store.

THE BUSY INDUSTRIAL COURT

THE BUSY INDUSTRIAL COURT.
The decision handed down by the
United States supreme court in the
Howat case did not extend so far as
many persons hoped it would 1t left
the way open for much future litiga-
ton The court of industrial relations
is the product of an emergency. The
law establishing it was enacted to
protect the public from being de-
prived OF a supply Of the necessaries
of life.
1t is doubtful that any considerable
number of those who voted for the
law contemplated its application to
wage controversies in non-essentiai
industries; that for instance the court
would busy itself with the wages of
girls working in department stores.
Where the extreme urgency of pub
lie interests does not call for inter
vention on the part of the state. it is
unwise to attempt such intervention.
In the long run it is better. as a gem
eral rule, to permit the free operation
of economic forces rather than to at
tempt what has so often proved
vain attempt, to suspend the operation
of those forces by legislative fiat. An
industry can usually work out its own
problems better than the state can
work them out The people are bet
ter served by the slow adjustment of
contending forces to a mutually salts
factory arrangement than by the i'm
position of arbitrary conditions. so
often unrelated to the realities of eco
nomic laws
The strongest criticism which can
be made of the Kansas industrial
court act and various bills Of SINH
lar nature now appearing in some
state legislatures, says Law and La
bor." is that such laws unfortunately
go beyond the field of any present or
probable emergency by including
clothing and food, and. as in the case
of the New York bill, all kinds of
building materials. as well as fuel and
transportation.
The country has never faced
strike in the production of clothing
which inflicted suffering on the gen
eral public. Nor is such an emer-
gency probable. The people can wear
their old clothes longer than men can
continue a strike. The clothing in
dustry is not trustified or unionized in
a way which is likely to result in
protracted and universal stoppage. |
With the possible exception of milk, |
there is no occasion to apprehend a |
general shortage OF food which might |
cause public distress. because of an
industrial conflict
The public need is paramount, but |
it is not served by tying the hands of /
enterprise and permitting !
a select few who find their way into /
public office to write contracts by |
which thousands engaged in private |
industry are to be ruled. It is sEfff- /
cient for the state to say that certain \
means may not be employed and GER |
tain conditions may not be permitted |
to arise in the progress of private am
bition, which have proved to threaten
the public welfare.
The real danger to the public in
Industrial conflicts" says the paper
quoted above, '.is not in the conflicts
but in the methods by
which they are carried on. Let the
public protect liberty and competition,
and liberty and competition will pro-
teet the public"

That solemn referendum,' OF two
years ago appears to have been more
far-reaching than 1t was expected to
be. Certain senators interpreted the
voting to be a justification of their
opposition to the Versailles treaty.
Apparently they now consider the
vote of 1920 TO be a warrant for op-
posing any treaty involving our rela-
tions with European countries. Ar
guments made against the Versailles
treaty have come home to plague

With the realization that much

truly said that commercial scientists

United States
American business blundered into
many queer situations when it started
out to capture foreign trade. In one
incident, a South American firm
wanted to purchase 100000 worth
OF shirts. It sent n representa- tive
to the United States to make the pur-
chase. Many concerns were inter
viewed. The foreign buyer wanted a
certain alteration made in the style of
the shirts. Not one of the American
houses would consent to this. and in
desperation the South American agent
sailed for England. Even there the
shirt makers would not meet the
South American requirements, and the
