lies ahead of them. Whatever life may
hold for the individual during the next
fifty years, it may be accepted as
matter of certainty that life during
this era will be more interesting than
ever before. With the rapid progress
now being made in many branches of
science, one cannot, by the widest
stretch of imagination, picture what
wonders will be seen and experienced
by those who are alive fifty years
hence. But the fundamentals of hu-
man progress are as changeless as the
sea, and those who go the furthest in
life's accomplishments will do so be-
cause of their adherence to those ele-
ments of success, chief among which
is the practice of broad, constructive
thrift, says S. W. Straus, of the Am
erican Society for Thrift. This does
not mean alone economy in money
matters, but it means in a word the
elimination of all forms of waste. One
of the penalties of experience in prac-
tical matters is ones failure to ap-
preciate the value of little things, and
thrift is essentially a conservation of
the so-called unimportant things.
Those who are thrifty are systematic,
efficient and progressive. They know
how to stop up the little leaks. The
elimination of idle moments means
more work done, just as the saving of
a few dollars here and there means a
substantial accumulation. Be willing
to sacrifice small pleasures for the
good of your career. Work system
atically toward the one fixed purpose
you have in mind Do not try to ar
rive at the goal of your ambition too
soon. Learn the value of patience.
There are no lessons which life can
teach that are of more practical value
than these, and we hope that among
the young men and young women who
are going out into the world of ex-
perience at this time many viii be
imbued with the spirit of thrift, fol
otherwise they can never hope to reach
that high place in life which is theil
hearts dream today.

Dover is having a stir over losing
control of its Opera House. The In
deX of last issue decrise the attempt
to let the only public building Dover
really has, pass from their hands. 1t
says: Several years ago Dover peo-
pie became deeply interested in secur-
ing a town hall where town meetings.
conventions and all sorts of public
gatherings and entertainments might
be held and they subscribed for stock
IN company formed to build and own
such a house. Of course no one who
subscribed for stock expected the pro-
ject to pay or even thought of a re-
turn of the money put in it. 1t was
public spirited movement to secure
town hall. Carried out in the spirit
with which it started no stockholder
would have sold his stock but other
citizens would have bought stock
enough to pay off the Indebtedness
and would have helped make a sue
cess of the project. Not so. Soon
stockholders began to sell stock at
from three or five cents a share up
and control passed into few hands and
then by long lease the house passed
from the town people to the present
lessee and now ownership is to follow
and Dover people will have no town
hall or place of their own where they
can hold public meetings. The ma
jOrity of the stock is understood to be
in control of a few who are about tC
turn it over to new owners. There
are some stockholders who are public
spirited enough to want to hold theil
stock and may do so, but they can be
sold out or frozen out as it is called
The excuse for all this is that great
Improvements are to be made. Per
haps! But will this really benefit tn,
town? A magnificent picture place
a movie monopoly, is after all a poo
substitute for a town hall owned b,
town people for their own purposes
We confess that we fail to find an,
pride in the great things promised b,
the Nixon's when we consider tn,
slump in town pride evidenced by tn,
giving up by our citizens of a thing
that they once valued so highly"

President Harding is impatient with
the tagging of Congress. Hence he
has informed the members that the
ship subsidy bill should be passed, and
if it is not Mr. Harding will call an
extra session of Congress. $50 there
you are" says the Middletown Tran
script.
"His note must have Jared the
members. The last thing they desire
is that extra session. They want the
present session ended as soon as pos
sible so that they can return to their
home districts and mend their fences.
And some of the fences at this time
are in rather bad shape.
"An extra session would materially
interfere with the plans of many a
member One trouble has been that
the lawmakers at Washington, many
of them, have considered the President
as too easy, not likely to insist upon
any particular thing, but they will
sing a different song in view of the
ultimatum from President Harding.
"The shipping measure is soon to be
reported to the House of Representa-
tives from committee, and the Presi-
dent urges that it be passed. 1t has
been almost a disgrace the way the
country has neglected shipping. Dur
ing the war when advantages were
flung into our faces the country leaped
to the front in shipping. The ill wind
for the Allies was blowing some good
for the United States, and this coun-
try got lead which it was thought il
would sustain. But with the end of
war and the appearance of a depres-
sion the United States lost its advan-
vantages. Other countries encourage
greatly their shipping, and the United
States should do the same. Cond;-
tions, if it is possible to do so by leg
islation, should be evened up. We are
compelled to compete with Europe,
and the proposed law which President
Harding urges would help US to do
this
SIT should be remembered that this
country with the increase of our man
ufactures will depend more and more
upon foreign trade-the export trade.
If the country had a merchant marine
which could carry large proportion
of the export trade the advantage to
the United States would be very great
We should be protected against dis
elimination on the part of foreign car
riers, advertise our goods and help tc
maintain valuable routes which might
lapse. The proposed law offers sew.
eral important aids to our shipping
The United States would have. mer
chant marine that could be profitably
operated, and unless our ships car
be operated with profit no per
manent improvement may be ex
pected. The proposed shipping mea
sure will cost money, but the govern
ment will be amply repaid for the out
lay. The measure, should it becom
law, would, it is expected, stimulat
work in the shipyards and help aloni
very materially the return to pros
perity.

SUBMITS HIS RESIGNATION
Michigan Senator In Letter to Gov
Groesbeck Expresses opinion That
He Would Be Hampered by Par
tlson Political Controversies.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Truman IL.
Newberry Of Michigan, whose right to
a place in the senate has been a sub
feet of long and bitter controversy
has submitted his resignation with a
request that II become effective imme-
diately
In letter to Gov. A. J Groesbeck
of Michigan, made public here MT.
Newberry said he had been impelIed
to retire voluntarily because Of the de-
feat of his Republican colleague, Sen
ator Townsend, in the election Of NOV.
Z. The turn Of events, he said, would
make it futile for him TO attempt to
continue his public service, since he
continually would be "hampered by
partisan political persecution
Reviewing the outstanding features
Of the controversy which grew out or
his election four years ago over Henry
Ford, his Democratic opponent, he de-
clared his right to a seat in the senate
had been fully confirmed He added
that if in the future there seemed to
be opportunities for public service he
would not hesitate to offer himself to
his state and country.
The resignation brings to an end a
fight which already has made political
history and which 1t appeared would
be resumed early in the session.

Mohammed VI in Fear Of Seizure by
the Nationalist Escapes From the
YiIdiz Kiosk in the Early Hours
of Morning.

Constantinople Nov 1S.-Fearful
lest the Turkish n,tionaists should
carry out the edict Of tie great
national assembly Of Turkey and seize
him and bring him to trial, the sultan
of Turkey, Mohammed VI, in the
early hours Of the morning fled from
! the Yildiz Kiosk took refuge on board
| the British dreadnaught Malaga and
| I'm company with his youngest son,
Prince Erlogrul Effendi, is on his way
TO Malta.
The flight of the sultan was almost
precpitate, but nevertheless before
his departure he announced he had not
abdlcated-that he merely was leaV-
/ ing Constantinope for safety.
The sultan had requested Lieut..
Gen. Harrington, commander of the
British forces, last Wednesday to af-
ford him the means of getting away
and arrangements were made for MIN
to have asylum on the dreadnaught.
The trip from the palace to the
quay was effected without the sultan
being seen by any OF the guards ABOUT
the palace. An automobile which had
been drawn whisked him TO the quay,
where a barge from the batteship was
waiting. on this Mohammed and MS
son and six members Of the palace
staff were Immediately transferred to
the Malaga which pointed its nose out
through the Dardanelles and into the
Mediterranean on the way to Malta.
1t is reported here that the Angora
government will make formal repre-
sensations to Great Britain for the
return of the sultan to the Kemalists,
pointing out that only the great
national assembly of Turkey has
authority to direct the sultan's move
ments and declaring that he must face
trial as ordered by the government.
