Men More
Than Things

1T is not a bit edifying to learn
from a recent judicial decision
i in Massachusetts that it is more
important to preserve the property
right to keep liquor on ones prem
ises under certain conditions than
to protect the human right to free
speech, free assemblage, free press
and trial by jury, the fundamentals
on which the Republic and our de-
mocracy within the Republic rest.
1t is all very interesting and very
thought-compelling. We are at the
parting of the ways. We must soon
choose definitely whether we are to
regard property tights as the more
important, or human rights. As
humanity chooses, humanity will de-
termine its own future.
The ancient world chose property
rights and was plunged into the
Dark Ages. We may still have our
Dark Ages, or we may go on pro-
gressively.

Schools of Soldiers

ARILITARISTS and pacifists
alike believe in patriotism.
Avx We need not be fire-eaters or
cud-chewers in order to prove love
of our country and of mankind. No
pacifist wants to leave his land un-
defended; no militarist demands
more than adequate preparedness
for war.
There is no likelihood that Amer
lea will become extensively ag-
gressive, however effectively ready
We may be for self-protection. An
essentially peaceable nation like the
United States, if well prepared for
all the emergencies of international
relations, gives added weight to all
its moral influence by its recognized
might as fighting power.
Without considering the proba-
bility or the unlikelihood of wars
which may or may not involve the
United States, every good American
should wish to see his country pre-
pared for the worst. even while
working for the best.
To this end we need first of all
that universal military training
which will provide a citizenry alert
always to the welfare of the nation.
A beginning should be made in the
public schools. The children should
be given military exercises which
they enjoy and which are good for
their bodies, and a discipline in
obedience and cooperation.
Frequently Mr.. Hearst has said on
this page:
With such military foundation
secured at the schools, there would
be no necessity for an overwhelm-
ing standing army, or any general
military system more exacting than
the Swiss system, which provides a
formidable and efficient military
force without interfering with the
civil life of the citizens.
Their training would be of ad.
vantage to them in their daily life
and civil occupation, in strength of
body and power of mind, even if
they never were called upon to EN-.
ploy this training in war.

Our Political
Prisoners

CEVENTY human beings are still
in prison in the United States
- for no other crime than the ex-
preston of their political opinions.
Technically, of course, they are in
carcerated because they spoke words
during the war which in the opinion
of the court tended to obstruct the
draft.
We make no apology for the men
who made these utterances. We do
not endorse what they said nor ap-
prove of their conduct. But two
wrongs never made one right, and
it is just as wrong for the Govern
ment to keep these men in durance
as it was for these men to speechify
as they did.
Even granting that these seventy
men are dangerous citizens, the most
dangerous place for them to be is
in jail.
When you put a little heap of
gunpowder on a rock in the open
air and touch a match to it all that
will result is a little poof. lamp
the same amount of gunpowder into
a steel shell and touch it off with a
spark and you get a deadly ex-
plosion.
To keep these men in prison is
mistake. If they were liberated
they would be comparatively harm
less, no matter how they talked. So
long as they are confined they are
dangerous, no matter whether they
are guilty or not.
These men should be released, net
so much for their own sake as for
the sake of the rest of us.

Marriage DOn'ts

THE REV. DIR. MOORE, of
Brooklyn, in a recent sermon
promulgated the following
marriage don It's:
Don t marry man
"Whom you don't know thor
oughly,
"Whom you expect to reform,
"Who doesn't respect woman
hood,
"Who is unpopular with children
and other men,
WHO can't support you,
"Who hasn't sense of humor,
"Who has been. wild.
Don't marry man unless he
is about the same age and has the
same interests as yourself.
Don't marry man unless
there is intelligent love on both
sides"
All these are very sensible. Too
sensible. They sound very much
like what Tennyson called "a little
horde of maxims preaching down a
daughters heart"
There never was a rule about
marriage through which fond lovers
could not drive a coach and four.
The trouble with marriage is that
it is like life itself-dangerous. No
regulations can ever possibly make
it safe.
1t will always remain an ad-
venture.
And if it should ever cease to be
adventurous young people very
probably would not take to it.

Recipes for Longevity
" ARIOUS centenarians have
" been telling recently how
to prOlong life.


Sing at your work, says one
Good advice it is. For it implies
two necessary factors in a fruit
full life-industry, without which
no person can be happy; and a
task in which you can be joyous.
All the idling that wealth and
leisure can devise fails to impart
the exquisite satisfaction which
comes in doing well something
you feel is worth while.
But equally pat is the counsel
of another elder who says: Rule
your mind"
"As a man thinketh," says
Scripture, " so is he."

capacity, a capacity that will grow

That your hopes will be upset
If you yearn for admiration.
VOU may get a pleasant thrill
L And be free from introspection
As you zip from hill to hill,
But I'll say, in this connection.

That the car you drive will end

Something to Think About
CONCERNING DOCTORS.
BY Bruno Lessing.

doctors are interesting peo-
~ pie. We give them a certain
amount Of Difference not be-
cause they are good doctors, but
just because they are doctors.
They are supposed to know so
many things that we ordinary
people do not know. The only
time that we get really intimate
with them is when we are help
less and our brains are not
working at full force.
Tell a conductor that you are
a doctor and left your purse at
home and he will always let you
ride free. Sometimes IL will
even get you into a moving pic

vantages in being a doctor. Also
many disadvantages.
