According to government authority,
the production of vanilla beans In
Mexico may become a source OF enOr'
nous revenue. 1t is asserted that no
other country affords the opportunities
for successful vanilla growing as Mex

other countries in annual output OF

to the industry. In the region around
Tuxpam on the gulf coast the vanilla

beyond the gathering of the fragrant
and valuable beans.

Long Line Football

| am not a football sharp and know
little of the fine points, but perhaps
enough to have an average good idea
of it as see it played. And | pity the
poor fish who doesn't enjoy thrill,
with a real kick to it, when two stall
wart elevens, the young men looking
almost as much like leather, through
their long period of training, as the
suits of armOr they wear, come trottin5
on the gridron for championship
game. Almost every situation from
the time the initial kickoff follows the
referees whistle to the tense moments
that end the game with the ball per
haps only a few inches from the line
that means success or defeat, carries a
culver Of delicious excitement. The
orde spirit of the moleskin war
riors communicates to the spectators.
The combination that means so much
everywhere in. this world in whatever
station Drawn, skill and courage are
eXemplifed on the gridiron to a degree
perhaps not equalled anywhere else
except in mortal combat Nor is there
anything lacking in the setting, with
the players surrounded by their cheer
ing partisans, urging them on Yes,
its rough and often player limps to
the sidelines on the shoulders of other,
to make way for a substitute, or even
suffers worse, though seldom perman-
emily injured But ISN'T this like the
casualties of the struggle of life also;

man life are demonstrated to the full

The Tiger Goes Home

Georges Clemenceau, the Tiger of France, has left
our shores to return to his dear country, There
.hould be no division of sentiment among our own
people as to the man himself or as to the motives that
led him to visit us He is patriot of the highest
order and his purpose in coming here was inspired
solely by love for his country and noble conception Of
his duty toward her If every American loved America
as purely and devotedly as Clemenceau loves France,
most of domestic and foreign troubles would dis
appear and the United States would live in peace and
contentmept Only sentiment Of admiration can be
felt for the distinguished Frenchman, but for those
pseudo-Americans who indicated by their applause of
his remarks that they agreed with all he said we have
,ther feelings,
81 ask for nothing but friendship and good heart
and good will" said the former premier France has
those now but Mr. Cemenceau wishes to see them eX-
pressed b. an American guarantee of France against
future German invasons, and American aid in the col
lection of the separations bill against Germany. He
thinks we ought to engage to do both only becauS
of former President Wilson's signature to the Versailles
pact but because he holds that America went to the aid
of France and should not have deserted her before the
need for aid had disappeared
Despite diligent efforts by inernationaliss and
others to spread contrary impression, the United
States entered the because American rights of the
high seas had leen invaded by Germany The declar-
oton of passed by Congress rectes that and
that alone 1t SO happened that when Germany trans
crossed upon our rights France was at war with her.
and we cooperaed with France in process Of chaS-
Using the Germans for what they had done to us but
we left no undscharged duty toward France when the
amistice was signed
By his visit Clemenceau has strengthened the love
and admiration that Americans have always felt for the
brave and able Frenchman but the logic of his argu
ments has failed somewhat to carry conviction.

Drug Addicts and Prohibition

1t is unfortunate when the search
light of publicity falls on an actor like
Wallace Reid, popular by virtue of his
picture making ability, and tells the
depressing story of his collapse through
the use of drugs, following drinking
habits.
What has happened to Reid has hap
pened to thousands of victims not in
the public eye, the difference being
that the unknown victims are either
under medical treatment or are rapid
lv approaching the inevitable and aw-
fulend which waits upon drug addicts
The increase of drug victims has
followed directly upon the heels of
federal prohibition. Prohibition may
not be entirely to blame, but the shut
ting off of the customary sources OF
liquor supply, the tremendous increase
in price and the difficulty of getting a
regular supply must have something
to do with it, However that may be
the condition of Reid merely emDha-
sizes a very serious national situation
one which is giving physicians and
alienistS much concern,
Perhaps a more liberal interpreta-
tion of the eighteenth amendment, to
wit, the legalizing of beer and light
wines, would not do away with such
cases, bat it is the opinion of some
pretty good judges that it would help

Moral victories are splendid themes for pen and
pulpit but the world does not love a loser, and has little
interest in the details of an abb whether it centres on
polling booths, the general headquarters of an army or
something that happened when the football was the
hve-yard line, and it was first down. The losing team
may have played intelligenty and hard but if it did
not win, nobody is much interested in it. Athletes
would rather play poor game under the sign of the
horseshoe and win than play beyond themselves from
start to finish and lose. Only the friends and relatives
of losers remember anything but the final score In
athletics fortunately unfortunately there are no
moral victories. The indifferent performer may play
for the sake of play. The man who excels plays for
the fun OF the thing, and the fine glow that from
victory is the best part of the fun.
